벌집으로부터 채취한 수지상의 물질인 propolis는 다양한 생화학적 성분을 함유하며 기원전 300년부터 사용되어 온 전통약물이다. 최근 항균, 항 바이러스, 항진균, 국소마취, 면역 활성, 항염, 항산화 작용등의 생물학적 활성이 보고된 바 있다. 본 연구에서는 위염과 위궤양에 미치는 propolis추출물과 분획물의 약조학적 효과를 평가하고자 에탄올 추출물을 hexane, toluene, ethyl acetate로 분획하여 항위염 및 항위궤양 활성을 조사하였다. Propolis 에탄을 추출물은 염산·에탄을 위손상, Shay의 위액 분비 실험에서 용량 의존적인 보호효과를 나타내었고 hexnae과 toluene 분획물은 염산·에탄을 위손상, aspirin에 의한 위손상, Shay의 위액 분비 실험에서 위손상과 위액분비를 감소시켰다. propolis 추출물과 분획물의 위염 및 위궤양에 대한 보호효과는 H+/K+ATPase activity의 억제에 의한 위액분비의 감소에 의한 것으로 생각된다.

황산 수용액에 재생 피브로인을 녹이고 가열하여 황산을 반응물과 동시에 촉매로 사용하여 황산-피브로인을 제조 하였다. 황산의 농도 및 반응온도를 달리하여 얻어진 시료로부터 적외선 흡광 스펙트럼, UV 흡광 스펙트럼, NMR 및 GPC를 사용하여 반응조건에 따른 황산기의 도입 정도 및 피브로인 분자의 분해 정도를 분석하였다. 황산-피브로인의 수율은 5%의 황산을 사용하여 $60^{\circ}C$에서 반응시킬 때 가장 높았으며 적외선 흡광 스펙트럼의 $1109\;cm^{-1}$의 피크가 나타내는 도입된 황산기의 량은 황산의 농도가 증가하면 같이 증가하였다. 단백질에 도입된 황산기는 피브로인 분자를 주로 구성하고 있는 세린 및 타이로신의 hydroxyl 그룹과 반응하여 O-sulfate ester를 형성할 것으로 예상되는데, 이는 274 nm에서의 UV 흡광도의 감소 및 $3300\;cm^{-1}$의 적외선 흡광 스펙트럼의 감소가 관찰되는 결과와 일치하였다. GPC 분석을 통하여 황산-피브로인이 가수 분해되어 원래 피브로인의 분자량 보다 분자량이 작으며 동시에 가수분해된 저분자 황산 피브로인 펩타이드와 덜 가수분해된 비교적 분자량이 큰 펩타이드로 구성되어 있음이 확인되고 있다.

Chronic hepatitis B viral (HBV) infection remains a major health threat, especially in high-prevalence areas. Most infants infected by mother-to-infant HBV transmission become chronic carriers. In Taiwan, many important preventive interventions have been implemented to block the perinatal transmission of HBV in the past 35 years. The first nationwide universal HBV vaccination program was launched in Taiwan in July 1984. The three-dose HBV vaccine completion rate reached 98.1% in 2018. The prevalence of Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) decreased from 9.8% in pre-vaccinated period in 1984 to 0.5% in the vaccinated cohort in 2014. The incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma in children aged 6-9 years significantly declined from 0.52 to 0.13 per 100,000 children born before and after 1984, respectively. Furthermore, we have performed a maternal HBV screening program during pregnancy since 1984, with the screening rate peaked at 93% in 2012. The HBsAg- and HBeAg-seropositive rate in pregnant women declined from 13.4% and 6.4% in 1984-1985 to 5.9% and 1.0% in 2016, respectively. To closely control perinatal HBV infection, we have administered hepatitis B immunoglobulin immediately after birth and checked the serum level of HBsAg and anti-HBs in high-risk babies born to HBsAg-seropositive mothers, irrespective of their HBeAg status, since July 2019. We have also adopted short-term antiviral treatments such as tenofovir 300 mg daily in the third trimester for highly viremic mothers and reduced the perinatal infection rates from 10.7 to 1.5%. Through all these efforts, we expect to meet the global goal of eliminating HBV infection by 2030.

D-[$^{18}F$]FMAU and L-[$^{18}F$]FMAU are F-18 labeled nucleoside analogue which have been efficiently synthesized in order to be a PET imaging probe. D-[$^{18}F$]FMAU and L-[$^{18}F$]FMAU were compared as PET imaging agents using HSV1-TK gene expressing tumor-bearing mice. Their cellular uptake profiles were also compared using MCA and MCA-TK cell lines. D-[$^{18}F$]FMAU demonstrated higher cellular uptake and higher accumulation in MCA-TK tumor regions than L-[$^{18}F$]FMAU. On the other hand, L-[$^{18}F$]FMAU showed higher MCA-TK/MCA ratio of %ID/g than that of D-[$^{18}F$]FMAU. L-[$^{18}F$]FMAU can be utilized as a good candidate for HSV1-TK PET imaging. It can be used for antiviral drug evaluation.

Pleurotus ostreatus, P. eryngii, and Flammulina velutipes are major edible mushrooms that account for over 89% of total mushroom production in Korea. Recently, Agrocybe cylindracea, Hypsizygus marmoreus, and Hericium erinaceu are increasingly being cultivated in mushroom farms. In Korea, the production of edible mushrooms was estimated to be 614,224 ton in 2013. Generally, about 5 kg of mushroom substrate is needed to produce 1 kg of mushroom, and consequently about 25 million tons of spent mushroom substrate (SMS) is produced each year in Korea. Because this massive amount of SMC is unsuitable for reuse in mushroom production, it is either used as garden fertilizer or deposited in landfills, which pollutes the environment. It is reasonably assumed that SMS includes different secondary metabolites and extracellular enzymes produced from mycelia on substrate. Three major groups of enzymes such as cellulases, xylanases, and lignin degrading enzymes are involved in breaking down mushroom substrates. Cellulase and xylanase have been used as the industrial enzymes involving the saccharification of biomass to produce biofuel. In addition, lignin degrading enzymes such as laccases have been used to decolorize the industrial synthetic dyes and remove environmental pollutions such as phenolic compounds. Basidiomycetes produce a large number of biologically active compounds that show antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, cytotoxic or hallucinogenic activities. However, most previous researches have focused on therapeutics and less on the control of plant diseases. SMS can be considered as an easily available source of active compounds to protect plants from fungal and bacterial infections, helping alleviate the waste disposal problem in the mushroom industry and creating an environmentally friendly method to reduce plant pathogens. We describe extraction of lignocellulytic enzymes and antimicrobial substance from SMSs of different edible mushrooms and their potential applications.

Cortex Mori (Moros alba L.), the root bark of mulberry tree has been used as an autiphlogistic, diuretic and expectorant in herval medicine. Recently, a few papers reported that phenolic extract of Cortex Mori had the hypotensive, hypoglycemic, antiviral and anticancer effects, and hot water extract of Cortex Mori(CM) had inhibitory effect on the degranulation and histamine release from activated mast cells. These previous studies suggest a possibility that CM has an antidotal activity against inflammation which was mediated mainly by macrophage-secreting inflammatory factors. This study was performed to evaluate the influences of CM on carrageenan-induced edema in vivo and release of inflammatory mediators such as NO, TNF and IL-1 by macrophages stimulated with LPS or $IFN-{\gamma}$ in vitro. Subcutaneous injections of carrageenan into the mouse paw rapidly induced local edema by increasing vascular permeability, but single intraperitoneal injection of CM extract at 30 minutes before carrageenan suppressed the development of edema. NO and TNF production from macrophage stimulated by LPS or $IFN-{\gamma}$ were significantly suppressed, especially TNF secretion by up to 3-4 folds. LPS stimulated IL-1 production was also inhibited, but not significantly. Cell viability assay verified that the inhibition was not due to general cell toxicity. These results suggest that reduction of NO, TNF and IL-1 production may be one of the means by which CM prevent inflammation associated diseases.

Background: Curcumin has been reported to have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antiviral, antifungal, antitumor, and antinociceptive activity when administered systemically. We investigated the analgesic efficacy of intrathecal curcumin in a rat model of inflammatory pain. Methods: Male Sprague Dawley rats were prepared for intrathecal catheterization. Pain was evoked by injection of formalin solution (5%, $50{\mu}l$) into the hind paw. Curcumin doses of 62.5, 125, 250, and $500{\mu}g$were delivered through an intrathecal catheter to examine the flinching responses. The $ED_{50}$ values (half-maximal effective dose) with 95% confidence intervals of curcumin for both phases of the formalin test were calculated from the dose-response lines fitted by least-squares linear regression on a log scale. Results: In rats with intrathecal administration of curcumin, the flinching responses were significantly decreased in both phases. The slope of the regression line was significantly different from zero only in phase 2, and the $ED_{50}$ value (95% confidence interval) of curcumin was $511.4{\mu}g$ (23.5-1126.5). There was no apparent abnormal behavior following the administration of curcumin. Conclusions: Intrathecal administration of curcumin decreased inflammatory pain in rats, and further investigation to elucidate the precise mechanism of spinal action of curcumin is warranted.
