This study was undertaken to develop a technique of discrimination using SSR makers in boxthorn cultivars. Forty one boxthorn cultivars, which were collected from Korea and China, were evaluated by 10 SSR markers. Total of 61 alleles were detected, ranging from 3 to 13 with an average of 6.1 alleles per locus. The averages of gene diversity and PIC values were 0.482 and 0.428, with a range from 0.25 (GB-LCM-022 and GB-LCM-087) to 0.83 (GB-LCM-167) and from 0.24 (GB-LCM-022 and GB-LCM-087) to 0.81 (GB-LCM-167), respectively. Five markers out of 10 markers, GB-LCM-022, GB-LCM-075, GB-LCM-104, GB-LCM-167 and GB-LCM-217, were selected as key markers for discrimination in boxthorn cultivars. All of boxthorn cultivars were individually distinguished by the combination of five SSR markers.

This study was conducted to find out some conditions for optimum cultivation of Angelica gigas Nakai by the investigation of root yield and decursin content from different seeding sizes and accumulative temperature. Accumulative temperature from April to October was $4,309^{\circ}C$ on altitude 100 m, $4,242^{\circ}C$ on 250 m, $3,662^{\circ}C$ on 530 m, $3,435^{\circ}C$ on 730 m, and altitude 530~730 m was less $650{\sim}870^{\circ}C$ than altitude 100 m cultivation areas of A. gigas. Seedling stand rate was increased from 86.4% to more than 90% as accumulative temperature decreases, and was increased in above 7 mm of seedling size, and 10% in non-mulching more than PE film mulching. Yield was increased as accumulative temperature decreases and in PE film mulching as 310.2 kg/10a. Also, Yield was increased in 7~9 mm than seedling diameter 5~7 mm as 313.0 kg/10a. Decursin content of primary roots was increased as altitude rises, ie, as 2.55% on altitude 100 m, 3.33% on 250 m, 5.51% on 530 m, and 6.24% on 730 m. Decursinol angelate content appeared little than decursin content as 1.08% on altitude 100 m, 1.37% on 250 m, 1.99% on 530 m, 2.38% on 730 m, and as altitude was heightened, content was increased.

Codium fragile (CF) is an edible green alga consumed as a traditional food source in Korea. In this study, the ethanol extract of CF was evaluated to determine if it has anti-inflammatory activity. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a toxin from bacteria, is a potent inducer of inflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-$\alpha$ and interleukin (IL)-6. Therefore, we studied whether CF extracts have an anti-inflammatory effect in LPS-induced murine macrophage cell lines (RAW 264.7). In the present study, IL-6 production was measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), prostaglandin $E_2$($PGE_2$) production was measured using the EIA kit, and cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation were determined by Western blot analysis. IL-6 mRNA, COX-2 mRNA and iNOS mRNA expression were measured using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The results indicated that CF extracts inhibit LPS-induced IL-6, NO and PGE2 production in a dose-dependent manner, as well as expression of iNOS and COX-2. CF extracts significantly inhibited LPS-induced c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) 1/2 phosphorylation. Taken together, these findings may help elucidate the mechanism by which CF modulates RAW 264.7 cell activation under inflammatory conditions.

The imputation of untyped SNPs enables researchers to validate association findings across SNP arrays and also enables them to test a large number of SNPs to reveal the fine structure of the association peak, facilitating interpretation of the results and the location of causal polymorphisms. In this study, we applied the imputation method to a genomewide association study and recapitulated the previously associated gene loci of blood pressure traits in Korean cohorts. A total of 1,827,004 SNPs were imputed by the IMPUTE program, and we conducted a genomewide association study for systolic and diastolic blood pressure. While no SNPs passed the Bonferroni correction p-value (p=$2.74{\times}10^{-8}$ for 1,827,004 SNPs), 12 novel loci for systolic blood pressure and 16 novel loci for diastolic blood pressure were detected by imputed SNPs, with $10^{-5}$ < p-value < $10^{-4}$. Moreover, 7 regions (ATP2B1, 10p15.1, ARHGEF12, ALX4, LIPC, 7q31.1, and TCF7L2) out of 14 genetic loci that were previously reported revealed that the imputed SNPs had lower p-values than those of genotyped SNPs. Moreover, a nonsynonymous SNP in the CSMD1 gene, one of the 14 genes, was found to be associated with systolic blood pressure (p<0.05). These results suggest that the imputation method can facilitate the discovery of novel SNPs as well as enhance the fine structure of the association peak in the loci.

폭풍해일에 의한 쇄파대내에서의 표사이동을 예측할 수 있는 유한차분 수치모형을 개발하였다. 이동 경계조건을 가지는 비제차 확산방정식을 사용하여 개발된 수치모형은 Kriebel과 Dean(1985)의 수치모형이 가지고 있는 많은 제약성을 해결할 수 있었다. 임의의 초기단면과, 시간에 따른 폭풍해일의 스펙트럼을 이용하여 계산된 수치모형의 결과는 표사량의 보존 및 해안선이 후퇴나 쇄파점의 이동을 잘 나타내 주며, 해석해 및 관측자료 그리고 실험자료와 매우 잘 일치한다. 수치모형과 관련된 제반 변수들의 민감도를 분석하여 수치모형 적용의 편의를 도모하였으며, 해안선 단면을 따른 표사의 입경변화 효과를 부여할 수 있음을 알았다.

This study describes an efficient approach to the development of DNA markers for use in distinguishing the Scrophularia species that have been used as useful medicinal crops. In order to distinguish Scrophularia species, DNA sequences of rpl-5 region in mitochondrial DNA of Scrophularia species were analysed for detecting sequence variations, and the PCR-RFLP method was applied for developing practicable DNA marker patterns. Several DNA variations were detected by the sequence comparison of rpl-5 region among Scrophularia species. Genetic relationship analysis of Scrophularia species was carried out based on these DNA variations. DNA variations of rpl-5 region were revealed that it was significantly efficient in genetic relationship analysis of Scrophularia species. In addition, Scrophularia species tested in this study were completely discriminated by four polymorphic genotypes by PCR-RFLP combined with Tsp509 I (^AATT) restriction enzyme. Our results suggested that DNA sequence variations of rpl-5 region were sufficiently useful for genetic relationship analysis of Scrophularia species. Polymorphic genotypes by PCR-RFLP using the Tsp509 I enzyme will be useful for discrimination of Scrophularia species as a practicable DNA markers.

이 논문은 발파석의 비산과 낙하를 조절하여 파쇄석이 사면의 낮은 쪽 소단에 분산될 수 있도록 한 노천발파에 대한 사례연구이다. 비산이 횡적인 분산과 파쇄석 더미의 이완을 초래하는 동안 낙하는 굴착기에 의한 굴착이 용이하도록 파쇄석 더미의 높이를 낮춰주는 역할을 한다. 이런 면에서 이 논문에서는 몇몇 발파설계 변수들을 조정하는데 주안점을 두었다. 대상 사면은 사암 벤치로서 벤치의 평균 높이는 22~24 m이다. 이 사면은 굴착심도가 14 m인 10 $m^3$ 용량의 로우프 쇼벨 작업이 가능하도록 조성되었다. 비산과 낙하를 조절한 새로운 발파설계 결과를 이 현장에서 적용되고 있던 상단(10~14 m)과 하단(12~15 m)의 이단식 발파 결과와 비교하였다. 파쇄석의 입도와 그 분포 및 쇼벨의 굴착 싸이클 시간들을 비교하였다.

Background: This study was designed to analyze the clinical usefulness of mycophenolic acid trough concentration monitoring in kidney transplantation patients who were maintained with cyclosporine. Methods: The data of patients who underwent mycophenolic acid trough concentration monitoring after their first kidney transplant between November 2006 and August 2013 and were prescribed with cyclosporine, mycophenolate, and methylprednisolone were reviewed retrospectively. Cox analysis was used to analyze the risk factors for acute rejection within 1 year post-transplantation. Results: Among 90 patients, 41 (45.6%) achieved both the target levels of cyclosporine and mycophenolic acid, while three patients (3.3%) failed to achieve the target level of either cyclosporine or mycophenolic acid. Nine patients (10.0%) only achieved the mycophenolic acid target level and 37 patients (41.1%) only achieved the cyclosporine target level. While patients who achieved only the mycophenolic acid target concentration had no statistically increased risk compared to patients who achieved both target levels (hazard ratio [HR], 1.569; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.316 to 7.778; P=0.581), patients who only achieved the cyclosporine target concentration showed an increased risk of rejection compared to the both achievement group (HR, 4.112; 95% CI, 1.583 to 10.683; P=0.004). Patients who had no achievement in the target levels showed significantly increased rejection risk compared to the patients who achieved both target levels (HR, 17.811; 95% CI, 3.072 to 103.28; P=0.001). Conclusions: Mycophenolic acid trough concentration monitoring combined with cyclosporine trough concentration monitoring is useful for avoiding acute cellular rejection if the first 1 year post-transplantation.
