  • Purpose : Adenoviruses(Ad) have been shown to play an important role in the etiology of severely acute respiratory diseases, particulary in infants and young children, and the occurrence of fatal outcome and chronic pulmonary sequelae in association with adenoviral infection has been a cause of great interest and concern. This report presents the resul of a retrospective analysis on 30 cases of lower respiratory infection from which adenovirus was isolated. Patients & Methods : The 30 patients in this study represent all detected cases of adenovial infection out of 240 children who were admitted to Sang Sung Medical Center between February to June 1996 showing signs and symptoms of lower respiratory tract infection. The diagnosis of adenovirus infection was based on microscopic visualization of typical cytopathic effect in HEp-2 tissue culture and used monoclonal Ab with nasopharyngeal aspiration. Results : The male/female ratio was 2:1 and the majority of age range was below 36months. Clinical diagnoses in all 30 patients were pneumonia(n=21), bronchitis and Bronchiolitis(n=5) and ARDS(n=4). We recieved the most of patients in the month of May. The chief complaints were fever(93.3%) and cough(80%) and extrapulmonary symptoms were diarrhea(n=5), seizure(n=4), abdominal pain(n=1). The mean duration of fever was $11.95{\pm}6.54$days. Physical examination on admission were crackles(73.3%), coarse breathing sounds(60%), hepatosplenomegaly(33.3%), decreased brething sounds(30%). In WBC counts, 8cases were below $4000/mm^3$ and 14 cases were above $10,000/mm^3$. In platelets counts, 4cases were below $150,000/mm^3$ and 10 cases were above $450,000/mm^3$. 21 cases were above 1 in CRP. GOT and GPT were abnormal in some cases. Chest X-ray revealed diffuse pulmonary infiltration(n=15), pleural effusion(n=6), consolidation(n=4) and hyperaeration(n=3). Seven patients were treated at the peditric intensive care unit with respiratory support and high dose of gammaglobulin. However, one patients died even through he was treated with NO ventilation and high frequency ventilation. Conclusion : Those with adenoviral pneumonia and respiratory infection having long fever duration and symptoms like bacterial pneumonia must be carefully differentiated in order to provide proper treatement and preventive measures due to possible fatal outcome.

  • This experiment was carried out to investigate the tendency of incident diseases in pre- and post- weaning piglets which ages were 1 to 7 weeks old by laboratory diagnosis and in order to minimize death in preweaning piglets and of stunted growth in postweaning piglets. The result of this experiment used as the basic data for the preventive programs in pre- and post- weaning piglets and were as follows: 23 different diseases diagnosed in 331 cases were studied in relation to age, season, and etiology. The most prevelent diseases of pre- and post- weaning piglet were Colibacillosis(79 case, 23.9%) and the major diseases were Salmonellosis(44 cases, 13.3%), Anemia(37 cases, 11.2%). Unknown viral disease(20 case, 6.1%), Rota viral infection(19 case, 5.8%), Porcine reproductive & respiratory syndrome(PRRS; 15 case 4.5%), Transmissible gastroenteritis(TGE; 12 case, 3.6%). The gastrointestinal disease, such as Colibacillosis, Salmonellosis, Swine dysentery, Clostridial infection, Rotaviral infection, TGE, Porcine epidemic diarrhea(PED) and Ballantidiosis occured pro- dominently in the period of pre- and post- weaning, which were 178 cases(53.8%) and not related to occurrence according to age and season. The respiratory diseases were Atrophic rhinitis(AR), Swine enzootic pneumonia, Pneumonic pasteurellosis, Pleuropneumonia, Branchopneumonia, PRRS and which were 48 cases(14.5%) and higher prevalent in spring and summer. The viral diseases was 73 cases(22.1%) that occurred in the period of 5 weeks piglet and prevalent mainly in spring. The bacterial diseases were 188 cases(56.8%) that were not related to occurrence according to age and season. Salmonellosis was prevalent in 3 to 5 weeks piglet and mainly occurred in summer. Viral septicemia and rotaviral infection occurred after 5 weeks piglets intensively and 3 to 5 weeks, respectively. And the both occurred without relation with season. PRRS occurred after 4 weeks piglet and prevalent in summer. TGE occurred 1 to 7 days old piglets and prevalent in spring and winter. Hematologic values of anemia was decrease in number of Red Blood Cell, concentration of Hemoglobin and Hematocrit. Amikacin, cephalothin, colistin, norfloxacin were effective to E coli, and amikacin, cephalothin, nortloxacin, neomycin were effective to Salmonellra spp. but clindamycin, erythromycin, penicillin, sulfonamides were resistant to E coli and Salmonella spp.

  • Objective: To evaluate the effect of feeding acidified milk on the growth and fecal microbial diversity of dairy calves. Methods: Twenty healthy 3-day-old female Holstein calves with similar body weights were selected and randomly divided into two groups. One group was fed pasteurized milk (PM, Control), while the other was fed acidified milk (AM) ad libitum until weaned (day 60). The experiment lasted until day 180. Results: There was no difference in the nutritional components between PM and AM. The numbers of Escherichia coli and total bacteria in AM were lower than in PM. At 31 to 40 and 41 to 50 days of age, the milk intake of calves fed AM was higher than that of calves fed PM (p<0.05), and the solid feed intake of calves fed AM was higher than that of calves fed PM at 61 to 90 days (p<0.05). The average daily gain of calves fed AM was also higher than that of calves fed PM at 31 to 60, 61 to 180, and 7 to 180 days (p<0.05). The calves fed AM tended to have a lower diarrhea rate than those fed PM (p = 0.059). Bacteroides had the highest abundance in the feces of calves fed AM on day 50, while Ruminococcaceae_UCG_005 had the highest abundance in the feces of calves fed AM on day 90 and calves fed PM on days 50 and 90. At the taxonomic level, the linear discriminant analysis scores of 27 microorganisms in the feces of calves fed AM and PM on days 50 and 90 were higher than 4.0. Conclusion: Feeding AM increased calf average daily gain and affected fecal bacterial diversity.

  • 시장에는 프로바이오틱스를 포함한 무수히 많은 제품이 판매되고 있는데, 우리에게 어떤 이로운 점을 줄 수 있는지 궁금해 한 적이 있었을 것이다. 프로바이오틱스는 기본적인 영양 측면을 배제하고, 우리가 유효한 양을 섭취하였을 때 건강상의 이점을 주는 살아있는 미생물로 정의된다. 프로바이오틱스는 유용하고 건강에 좋은 미생물로도 불려지고 있으며, 다음과 같은 다섯 가지 측면에서 건강 기능성이 있는 것으로 강조되어 왔는데, 1) 대장암 및 IBS와 같은 다른 대장(결장)관련 질병의 발병율 감소, 2) 면역 시스템의 촉진, 3) 항고혈압 및 항콜레스테롤 작용, 4) 장내세균에 작용하는 항생제의 효과를 경감시키고, 5) 위장관 감염을 예방시키는 점이다. 그러나 이러한 건강기능 작용들에 대한 과학적인 근거가 충분히 구축되어 있지는 않아, 유럽식품 위생위원회(Euroupe Food Safety Authority)는 항생제 투여에 따른 설사증상의 완화와 같은 건강기능 표시를 금지하고 있어, 프로바이오틱스의 작용기전에 대한 연구가 필요한 시점이라 하겠다.

  • 위에 군집을 형성하는 그람 음성 박테리아인 Helicobacter pylori는 위암을 일으킬 수 있는 1급 발암 인자로, H. pylori의 성장을 억제하거나 제거하는 물질을 탐색하는 연구가 꾸준히 진행되어 왔다. 오수유는 운향과에 속하는 오수유의 열매를 일컫는 생약으로 한방에서는 설사 및 복통에 사용되던 약재이다. 오수유 추출물이 H. pylori의 성장을 억제한다는 보고는 있었으나 병원성 요인에 어떤 영향을 주는지에 대한 연구는 보고된 바가 없었다. 본 연구에서는 각기 다른 메탄올 농도에서 추출한 오수유 추출물의 H. pylori 성장 억제 효과를 비교하였으며 또한 오수유 추출물이 H. pylori의 병원성 인자에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 95% 메탄올 오수유 추출물이 가장 낮은 최소저해농도(MIC) 값을 보였으며, 이 95% 추출물을 대상으로 하여 MIC 미만 농도에서 H. pylori의 병원성 인자의 발현 변화를 확인하였다. 95% 메탄올 오수유 추출물은 H. pylori의 주요 병원성 인자인 cagA, vacA 그리고 ureB의 mRNA 및 단백질의 발현을 억제하였으나 흥미롭게도 ureA의 발현은 증가시켰다. 하지만 H. pylori의 배양액과 세포내의 암모니아의 량이 현저히 낮아졌음을 확인하였고, 이는 오수유 추출물이 ureB의 mRNA 및 단백질의 발현을 억제하여 H. pylori의 urease 활성을 억제한다는 것을 확인하였다. 오수유 추출물의 병원성 인자 조절 기전에 대해서는 좀 더 연구가 필요할 것으로 보이나, 본 연구 결과는 오수유 추출물이 H. pylori로 인한 부정적 영향을 줄여줄 것으로 생각한다.

  • From September 1996 to September 1999, 419 Korean-native calves with diseases under 6-month old collected from Kyonggi, Chungcheong, Chonlla and Kyongsang were examined by clinical, microbiological, parasitic, hematologic and histopathological mean. Among them, 124 cases were tested about the neutralization antibodies against infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus(IBRV), Parainfluenza-3 virus(PI-3V), bovine uiral diarrhea virus(BVDV), bovine ephemeral fever virus(BEFV). In calf diseases in the survey, enteric diseases(72.8%) were most frequently involved and the following orders were taken by respiratory(17.4%) and reproductive (5.0%) disorders. In the causative pathogens associated with calf diseases and motality, 48.4% was induced by bacteria origin and also 35.6% by viral agents. Calf mortality was up to 76.3% in the cae of bacterial diseases and 55.7% in viral diseases. In bacterial diseases, frequent disorders were composed of colibacillosis(52.7%), salmonellosis(13.8%), pasteurellosis(12.8%) and campylobacteriosis(3.9%) and their mortalities showed 73.8% in colibacillosis, 73.0% in pasteurellosis, 67.9% in salmonellosis and 50.0% in campylobacteriosis (50.0%). Among the outbreaks of viral diseases, there were BVD(22.8%), bovine rotavirus infection(20.8%), bovine coronavirus infection(16.8%), bovine respiratory syncytial virus infection(15.4%), IBR(15.4%). Akabane disease(4.7%) and Chuzan diseases(3.4%). Interesting results through this studies were obtained the first isolate to Chuzan virus and Ainovirus in Korea which could be promised the development for diagnostic method and vaccines soon. Calf mortality to Akabane and Chuzan diseases was 100%. Main parasitic diseases were occupied by coccidiosis and babesiosis and their mortality of babesiosis was 20.0%. Other diseases were abomasal impaction(6.7%) and toxicosis(4.5%). The mortality of abomasal impaction was 89.3%. In some causes with malformations(1.9%) were confirmed as anasarca, derodidymus, polymelia, humerus hypoplasia, and tracheal collapse. Calf diseases had mostly been occurred in one month old grout (52.5%) and its prevalence was 25.1% in two to three month old group and 22.4% in four to six month old group. In calf mortality by age, there were 37.9% in one month old group, 18.1% in two and three month old group, and 13.8% in four to six month old group, respectively. The older the age of calf, the less the prevalence of calf enteric diseases. Respiratory diseases in calves to be tested frequently occurred in one to two month old group (41.4%). In one month old calves, the prevalence of enteric disease was 80.0%(p<0.05) and that of reproductive and respiratory disease was 9.5% and 8.2%, respectively. In two month old and four to six month old, enteric disease was 65.7% and 63.8% and respiratory disease was 28.6% and 26.6%. Seasonal prevalence and mortality of Korean-native calf diseases were not a significant difference. Prevalence of calf diseases in summer(31.5%) frequently occurred to compare that in winter(20.3%). Abortion and malformation in calves frequently occurred in spring. Hematological values in 84 calves with clinical signs showed mild to marked leukocytosis. Also, there was slight increase in hematocrit, platelet, mean corpuscular volume and mean plasma volume, but all of those were included the higher level to normal ranges. Calves with respiratory signs showed slightly erythrocytosis. One hundred seventy three calves without clinical signs were not significant different to ill cases in hematological values, but number of platelets was in higher normal range. In 125 calves, 84.8% was taken the antibody to IBRV, but 72% with the antibody had recorded the titer level lower than log$_2$5. The neutralizing antibody levels of higher than $log_{2}5$ to PI-3V and BVD virus were 60.8% and 67.2% cases, respectively. There were the cases of 57.6% had the neutralizing antibody level lower than log$_2$5 to BEFV.

  • 목 적 : Shiga-like toxin (SLT)을 생산하는 Esherichia coli에 의한 감염은 설사, 출혈성 대장염(hemorrhagic colitis) 및 용혈성 요독 증후군(hemolytic uremic syndrome)을 특징으로 하며, 특히 5세 이하의 소아에게서 심각한 결과를 초래한다. SLT-I의 병인으로는 다양한 숙주 매개인자들이 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 E. coli 0157 : H7 (ATCC 43890)로부터 정제한 SLT-I이 포유동물 세포들에 대한 세포독성과 종양괴사인자(tumor necrosis factor-${\alpha}$; TNF-${\alpha}$)의 생산에 미치는 효과를 측정하였으며, SLT-I의 수용체인 glycolipid globotriaosylceramide (Gb3)의 발현과 SLT-I의 세포독성의 관계를 규명하고자 하였다. 방 법 : SLT-I과 SLT-I B를 순수분리 정제하고 SLT-I B-FLTC 접합체를 제조하여 vero 세포, 대식세포 및 수지상세포를 대상으로 세포독성능을 측정하고 세포독성능의 차이가 SLT-I의 수용체인 Gb3의 발현과 상관관계가 있는지를 Flow cyotmetry로 분석하였다. 또한 대식세포의 종양괴사인자 생산능은 ELISA법으로 시행하였다. 결 과 : SLT-I은 대식세포(Raw264.7)로부터 TNF-${\alpha}$의 생산을 증가시켰다. 연구 대상 세포 중 SLT-I에 감수성을 나타낸 Vero 세포와 수지상세포(dendritic cells)는 Gb3 발현이 각각 83%와 68%로 높았으며, 29%의 낮은 Gb3 발현을 보인 Raw264.7 세포는 감수성을 보이지 않았다. 따라서 위의 결과로부터 SLT-I에 감수성을 보이지 않은 Raw264.7 세포를 대상으로 Gb3 발현 정도와 SLT-I의 세포독성의 관계를 규명하고자 Gb3의 발현을 증가 시킨 후 SLT-I의 세포독성을 재차 평가하였다. 이 결과 TNF-${\alpha}$의 처리에 의하여 6 h에 Gb3의 발현이 정점(43.5%)에 이르렀으며 36 h에 정상 수준(25.0%)으로 환원되었다. 그러나, Gb3의 발현이 증가함에도 불구하고 SLT-I의 세포독성에는 변화가 관찰되지 않았다. 따라서, SLT-I에 의한 세포독성은 세포의 종류에 따라서 다르며 또한, Gb3의 발현정도에만 의존적이지는 않을 것으로 생각된다. 결 론 : 이와 같은 결과는 E. coli 0157의 감염증 병인 연구에 있어 SLT-I과 Gb3의 발현의 상관관계에 대한 보다 심도 있는 연구가 필요함을 시사한다.
