전기자극이 흰쥐의 정상근에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 알아보기 위하여 좌골신경의 표적근인 가자미근을 이용하여 조직계측학적, 조직화학, 전자현미경적 관찰을 하였다. 정상적으로 활동하는 흰쥐의 골격근을 매일 전기자극한 결과 전기자극군은 자극을 시작한 후 2주까지는 근섬유의 굵기와 무게가 증가하고 그 이후로는 큰 변화가 없었다. 특히 근섬유의 종류별로는 적색섬유(red muscle fiber)의 채적밀도가 증가하였고 백색섬유(white muscle fiber)는 줄어드는 양상을 보였다. 조직화학적 검사 결과 전기자극군은 근섬유가 다소비대(hypertrophy)해지고 내근주막과 외근주막 사이가 좁아져 있었다. 정상근에서는 당원이 근섬유의 뚜렷한 구별없이 양성반응을 보였으나 실험군은 특정 근섬유에만 반응이 나타났었다. 또한 NADH-TR반응 결과 전기자극군은 적색섬유가 유의하게 증가하여 생체계측학적 결과와 일치하였고 미세구조적 관찰 결과 정상근의 적색섬유는 근섬유와 평행으로 mitochondria가 형성되어 있었고 백색섬유에서는 근절부위에서 관찰되었다. 그러나 전기자극군에서는 적색섬유는 근초부위에 mitochondria가 많이 관찰되고 백색섬유도 근절부위에 작은 mitochondria의 수가 증가되는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다.

We have completed a study to measure the contents of glucose, BUN, creatinine. LDH, and T-protein with respect to a fatigued condition in the bloods of rats which a constant swimming is loaded and to measure the maximun swimming time of mice The test has been carried out as a part of the basic study on the efficacy of B. E. P. (Biological Energy Projector) for emitting a light energy having a specific wavelength out of far-infrared rays. As a result. We have reached the following conclusions: 1. At testing of mice's maximun swimming time, all of B.E.P.(2. 4. 8. 24hrs) treated group have been increased in comparison with the control group, but only 24hrs-B.E.P. treated group significantly increased during 4 weeks. 2. The contents of glucose, BUN. creatinine, LDH, and T-protein measured immediately after the swimming of mice have been distinctly changed but not been significantly changed at their increase and decrease in comparison with the control group. 3. At 3rd day out of the swimming loading, the contents of glucose in the blood serum of the white rat have been distinctly increased in comparison with the control group. And 24hrs-B.E.P treated group surpassed 8hrs-B.E.P. treated group. 4. At 1st and 3rd day, the contents of creatinine in the blood serum of the white rat have been distinctly increased at B.E.P. (8, 24hrs) treated groups in comparison with the control group and have been recovered to the condition of the normal group. 5. After three days, the contents of BUN in the blood serum of the white rat have been significantly decreased in B.E.P.(8, 24hrs) treated groups at 3rd day in comparison with the control group and have been recovered to the condition of the normal group. 6. The contents of LDH in the blood serum of the white rat have been decreased in B.E.P.(8, 24hrs) treated groups at 3rd day in comparison with the control group, in particular 24hrs-B.E.P. treated group has been decreased distinctly than the normal group. 7. The contents of T-protein in the blood serum of the white rat have been distinctly increased in B.E.P. (8, 24hrs) treated groups at 3rd day in comparison with the control and normal group. As the above results, it has been proved that the execise of mice and the fatigue metabolism of rats were influenced by the light energy emitted the B.E.P., and it has been also proved that the external stimulation could be used as a preferable stimulative factor for the biological metabolism. If the clinical training and study are positively achieved, the B.E.P. would be used as curative means and preventive measures for helping human body.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of glucuronic acid (isolated from xylan) on antioxidative defense system in rat after aerobic exercise. The glucuronic acid was isolated from xylan. Sprague-Dawley male rats weighing 150$\pm$10 g were randomly assigned to one normal group and three exercise training groups. Exercise training groups were classified to T (glucuronic acid free diet), TU (250 mg glucuronic acid/kg bw) and 2TU (500 mg glucuronic acid/kg bw) according to the level of glucuronic acid supplementation before exercise training. The experimental rats in exercise training groups (T, TU and 2TU) were exercised on glucuronic acid supplementation or rats in normal group (N) were confined in cage for 4 weeks. And rats were sacrificed with an overdose of pentobarbital injection just after running. Body weight, food intakes and food efficiency ratio (FER) were lower in the exercise training group than in the normal group. White gastrocnemius xanthine oxidase (XOD) activity in the T group was 85% greater than that of the normal group, whereas in the TU and 2TU groups it did not differ from the normal group. White gastrocnemius superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in T group, that was decreased by 22% compared with that of N group, but those of TU and 2TU groups were increased by 38% and 42%, respectively, compared with that of T group. White gastrocnemius glutathione peroxidase (GSHpx) activity in T group, that was decreased by 42% compared with that of N group, but those of TU and 2TU groups were increased by 67% and 68%, respectively, compared with that of T group. Glutathione S-transferase (GST) activity of white gastrocnemius in N group was not significantly different from that in the T and TU groups, but 2TU group were increased by 12%. Contents of thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) in T group was increased by 54%, compared with that of normal group but those of TU group and 2TU group were lower 44% and 36% than that of T group. In conclusion, the effects of glucuronic acids in exercise training rats would appear to reduce peroxidation of tissue as an antioxidative defense mechanism.

We have developed a high-$T_C$ SQUID magnetometer system to measure magnetocardiograms of laboratory rats. White noise of the measurement system was about 50 fT/$Hz^{1/2}$ when measured in a magnetically shielded box. We optimized the measurement position to obtain clear MCG wave from rat's small heart by using grid measurements. With the optimization, the MCG signal was successfully detected with the peak amplitude of about 50 pT. We could observe well defined P-, QRS-, and T-wave from the rat MCG. The results suggest that the developed system has a strong potential to monitor the progress of heart disease model using laboratory rat.

We have developed a high-$T_c$ SQUID magnetocardiogram (MCG) system for small laboratory animals. White noise of the measurement system was about 30 fT/$Hz^{1/2}$ when measured in a magnetically shielded room. We optimized the measurement position to obtain clear MCG wave from rat's small heart by using grid measurements. With the optimization, the MCG signal was successfully detected with the peak amplitude of about 30 pT. We could observe well defined P-, QRS-, and T-waves from the rat MCG.

Oogenesis process of ovary produces a lot of undifferentiated cells. Especially, the radiation exposure of early immature cells in the process of growth to oocyte causes serious disabilities. This study examined the radiation damage mechanism of undifferentiated cells and organelles in oogenesis process, and the radioprotection after injection of alliin. The ultrastructure after 7Gy X-ray irradiation on the white rat was observed in the experiment. The results is as follows. It was observed that the nucleus membrane of an oogonium was damaged and vacuolated in the several parts after 15 days of irradiation. The damage of mitochondria membrane and flow in cytoplasm after 20 and 30 days was found in the oogonium. After 40 days observation, peroxidation of fat droplets was found and organelles were tangled each other in ovary tissue. The partial damage of nuclear membrane in oogonium past 15 days after injection of alliin was found, but decreased remarkably. Mitochondria, Golgi body, and rough endoplasmic reticulum were also clearly observed, therefore, radioprotection effects in alliin was confirmed partially.

This study was designed to investigate the changing depositional pattern of inorganic enamel substances during enamel formation and maturation. For this purpose, white rat incisors which continuously grow and develop during the life, were chosen as specimens. And after treated with 20% KOH solution, outer surface of forming inorganic enamel were observed with the scanning electron microscope, dividing into 6 types according to the forming pattern from apical to cuspal direction. The observations lead to the following conclusions: 1. During the initial enamel forming stage, inorganic enamel substances were deposited with very irregular pyramidal shape on the root dentin surface. 2. During the enamel forming stage, inorganic enamel substances were deposited with relatively regular hexagonal, honey-comb appearance. 3. During the later enamel forming stage, inorganic enamel substances were deposited with very irregular and roughly amorphous appearance. 4. During the later enamel maturating stage, very small and round inorganic enamel substances were deposited densely, and made a flat enamel surface.
