Two groups of esophagus graft were done in canine esophagus in 34 adult mongrel dogs. For the first group segmental replacement graft was done with fresh autologous pericardium tube, and for the second, patch graft was done utilizing fresh autologous pericardium, fresh homologous pericardium,and dacron piece. All eight dogs in the first segmental replacement graft group died 2 to 5 days after operation with severe empyema caused by anastomosis disruption. Among 26 patch graft dogs 2 died during operation and 7 died 13 to 18 days after operation. For the 17 long-term patch grafted survivors esophagography and postoperative weight check were done. Postoperative stool was collected and examined for dacron patch excretion. One, two, three, and four months postoperative long-term survivors were sacrificed to obtain specimens in each group respectively and the following observations were made.I. Survival; Autologous pericardium patch group showed no mortality but in homologous pericardium and dacron patch group only two thirds were long-term survivors. II. Postoperative swallowing; There was no case which demonstrated postoperative dysphagia. About half of the cases showed postoperative weight increase and in only 3 cases weight decrease followed operation. III. Dacron patch was excreted in the stool 8 to 23 days after operation. Animals which excreted dacron patch up to 9 days after operation all died of empyema due to anastomosis disruption.IV. Postoperative esophagogram; All esophagograms in each group showed no leakage of barium, no passage disturbances and no remarkable stenotic signs.V. Morphological findings; [A] Macroscopical findings; In one month group specimens of each group dense adhesion with surrounding structures was noted and luminal surface was smooth with contraction of the patched area. In two month groups anastomosis sutures were still exposed but patched area showed lesser abnormality. In three to four months groups sutures were covered completely and patched area showed only very slight signs of contraction. [B] Microscopic findings; In one month group luminal surface of the replaced tissue [transplanted tissue] showed almost complete epithelial covering that is composed of several layers of squamous cells with no evidence of keratinization. Basement membrane was also well distinct throughout. Slight to minimal inflammatory cells comprising of large mononuclears, lymphocytes and plasma cells were observed in the subepithelial fibrous stroma consisted entirely of loose fibrous tissue containing many newly formed capillaries and fibroblastic proliferation. Scattered suture granulomas were found, few of which became acutely inflamed. In two months group repairing process progressed with lesser degree of inflammatory cell infiltration and young capillary proliferation. Fibrous tissue was more matured showing even focal collagenization.Suture granuloma persisted but with lesser reactive changes. Epithelial covering was that of a mature non-keratinizing stratified squamous epithelium. In three and four months groups the replaced area showed essentially similar histological findings. However, subepithelial stroma still consisted entirely of connective tissue without evidence of smooth muscle regeneration. In this group, inflammatory cell infiltration was minimal or negligible. Among these patch materials autologous pericardium group showed the most satisfactory repairing process.The above mentioned results may signify the feasibility of autogenous pericardium patch graft in clinical esophageal surgery.

The study was undertaken to obtain indirect values of volume of packed red cell (VPRC) without centrifugation, using the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) of diluted blood in dogs. ESRs of diluted blood using the diluent of autologous plasma in which formed numerous RBC-rouleau clumps, autologous serum in which formed a few RBC-rouleau clumps, and 5% dextrose or 6% sucrose solutions in which formed numerous RBC-aggregation clumps, were accelerated. But, ESR of diluted blood using the 0.9% saline, D-S, ACD-B, CDP or D-PBS solutions were sluggish, because erythrocytes were dispersed in these diluents. Reliable values of VPRC on the basis of the correlating regressive equation to the ESR could be derived from values of$60^{\circ}$-angled-micro-ESR/40 min in the mixture, four parts of 5% dextrose solution and one part of whole blood. In the ESR values of diluted blood with low ratio, 1:1~3:1, $60^{\circ}$-micro-ESR was higher than $60^{\circ}$-Wintrobe-ESR. But, in the diluted blood with high ratio, 4:1~5:1, there was no different ESR values. For an aid of practical use, authers suggested a list of the $60^{\circ}$-micro-ESR/40 min in the diluted blood with equivalent VPRC of whole blood.

Pimobendan is an inodilator used to treat canine heart failure, and pentoxifylline is reported to be beneficial for microcirculation and heart disease. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles of a novel pimobendan-pentoxifylline liquid mixture after oral administration to dogs. Eight healthy Beagle dogs were included in the study. The dogs were divided into the control group (orally administered water; n = 4) and experimental group (orally administered pimobendan-pentoxifylline liquid mixture [pimobendan 0.25 mg/kg, pentoxifylline 15 mg/kg]; n = 4). Plasma samples were obtained and echocardiographic indices were measured for 24 hours after administration. The concentrations of pimobendan and pentoxifylline were quantified by using a liquid chromatography-mass spectrometer (LC-MS). The elimination half-life ($T_{1/2}$) was $32.96{\pm}9.80mins$ for pimobendan and $29.49{\pm}6.67mins$ for pentoxifylline. The time to reach maximum concentration ($T_{max}$) were $52.50{\pm}31.22mins$ for pimobendan and $41.25{\pm}18.87mins$ for pentoxifylline. The maximum blood concentration ($C_{max}$) was $96.92{\pm}75.64ng/mL$ for pimobendan and $7074.07{\pm}3261.1ng/mL$ for pentoxifylline. Of the echocardiographic indices, fractional shortening (FS) and left ventricular internal diameter at end systole (LVIDs) were significantly altered at 1-3 hours after the administration of pimobendan-pentoxifylline liquid mixture. The pimobendan-pentoxifylline liquid mixture was well tolerated by the dogs, with no adverse effects observed during the study.

Technetium labeled isonitrile analogues are widely used as myocardial perfusion imaging agents. We synthesized and characterized a new isonitrile compound, ethyl 3-isocyanobutyrate(EIB). Proton and $^{13}C$ NMR spectroscopy and thin layer chromatography with a $C_{18}$ coat was performed. EIB was easily labeled with $^{99m}TcO_4^-$- with sodium dithionite. The labeling efficiency measured by RP-HPLC was over 95%. The labeled product was stable with dilution in normal saline and with prolonged incubation at room temperature. There was no formation of secondary products or free $^{99m}TcO_4^-$. In vivo kinetics study of $^{99m}Tc$ (I) labeled EIB in rabbits showed adequate myocardial uptake, good contrast against lung background, and relatively rapid liver clearance. The heart to lung ratio was over 2.5 and the heart to liver ratio was approximately from 0.4 to 5 at 60 minutes post injection. Hepatic clearance of $^{99m}Tc-MIBI$ was faster ($t_{1/2}$=6 minutes) than that of $^{99m}Tc-MIBI$. In vivo kinetics observed in dog was similar to that in rabbit but there was faster gallbladder filling, and thus lower liver background. SPECT imaging of the canine myocardium showed favorable imaging characteristics. However, biodistribution in mice demonstrated a myocardial % injected dose/organ of less than 0.1%. This was thought to be due to interspecies difference in plasma esterase activity. In human plasma, $^{99m}Tc$ ( I ) labeled EIB was stable for at least 2 hours, without production of secondary products by HPLC. We conclude that ethyl 3-isocyanobutyrate may be a potential new myocardial perfusion imaging agent and deserves further investigation as to its usefulness for clinical use.

With HMPAO we have synthesized in our laboratory, we labelled $^{99m}Tc$ to canine leukocytes. Experimental abscess made by subcutaneous injection with Staphylococcus aureus was imaged with these $^{99m}Tc$ labelled leukocytes. Labelling efficiency of HMPAO with $^{99m}Tc$ was $66.2%{\pm}14.6%$ (N=9). Labelling efficiency of leukocytes with $^{99m}Tc-HMPAO$ was $54%{\pm}7.7%$ (N=7). Cell bound radioactivity in $^{99m}Tc-HMPAO$ labelled leukocytes was around 80% when these cells were incubated in plasma in vitro at $37^{\circ}C$ for 5 hours. In vivo cell bound activity was over 80% at 24 hours after injection. One day and four days after inoculation, uptake at the inflammatory focus was found with $^{99m}Tc$ labelled leukocytes. Uptake showed up in 4 hour image, and the uptake at the lesion was most prominent in 24 hour image. These findings show that in-house-synthesized HMPAO could be used for labelling leukocytes with $^{99m}Tc$, and that s$^{99m}Tc-HMPAO-labelled$ leukocytes were so stable and viable that inflammatory focus could be visualized with these $^{99m}Tc-labelled$ leukocytes.

이 연구는 개에서 isoflurane을 이용한 전신마취 하에 개복술시 아스코르빈산 (AA)의 항산화 효과를 평가하였다. 12마리의 개를 아스코르빈산 그룹 (AAG) 또는 sham 그룹 (SG)으로 무작위 배정하였다. AAG는 마취 10분 전 에 표준 아스코르빈산의 100 mg/animal 복용량을 정맥주사하였다. 혈장에 있는 코티졸, 포도당, total oxidant status (TOS), total antioxidant status (TAS)와 oxidative stress index (OSI)를 측정하였다. 코티졸 수치는 두 그룹에서 시간이 지남에 따라 유의성있게 증가하였다 (p < 0.05). 포도당 수치의 변화는 두 그룹 사이에 유의성이 없었다. TOS와 OSI는 SG에서 시간이 지남에 따라 유의성 있게 증가하였다 (p < 0.05). 그런데 AAG에서는 유의성있는 변화가 없었다. 그리고, AAG의 TOS와 OSI는 SG에서 보다 더 유의성 있게 낮았다 (p < 0.05). 그러나 TAS는 두 그룹 사이에 유 의성이 있는 변화가 없었다. 이런 결과는 AAG에서 TOS 감소가 항산화제에서 산화제로의 변환과 관련 있음을 예측 해 볼 수 있게 한다. OSI 감소는 손상부위에 발생한 활성산소 (ROS, 즉 산화 스트레스)의 감소가 혈액순환 이상, 기관 부전 및 염증의 수술 부작용을 줄일 수 있다는 것을 의미한다. 그러므로, AA는 개의 개복술에서 산화 스트레스로부터 수술환자를 보호하기 위하여 사용될 수 있다.

Bile formation is a complex process comprised of three separate physiologic mechanism operating at two anatomical sites. At present time, it was known that at least two processes are responsible for total canalicular secretion at the bile canaliculus. One of the processes is bile salt-dependent secretion (BSDS) hypothesis that the active transport of bile salts from plasma to bile provided a primary stimulus for bile formation: the osmotic effect of actively transported bile acid was responsible for the movement of water and ions into bile. The other process is bile salt-independent secretion (ESIS), which is unrelated to bile salt secretion at the canaliculus and which may involve the active transport of sodium. The third process for bile formation involves the biliary ductal epithelium. Secretin-stimulated bile characteristically contained bicarbonate in high concentration. Therefor, it was suggested that secretin stimulated water and bicarbonate secretion from the biliary ductules. One the other hand, it was found that a large amounts of cAMP was present in canine bile but no apparent relationship between bile salt secretion and cAMP content in dog bile. However, bile flow studies in human have demonstrated that secretin and glucagon increase bile cAMP secretion as does secretin in baboons. Secretin increases baboon bile duct mucosal cAMP levels in addition to bile CAMP levels suggesting that in that species secretin-stimulated bile flow may be cAMP mediated. It has been postulated that glucagon and theophylline which increase the bile salt-independent secretion in dogs might act through an increased in liver cAMP content. In a few studies, the possible role of cAMP on bile formation has teen tested by administration of an exogenous derivative of cAMP, dibutyryl cAMP. In the rat, DB cAMP did not modify bile flow, but injection of DB cAMP in the dog promoted an increase in the bile salt-independent secretion. Because of these contradictory results, this study was carried out to examine the relationship between cyclic nucleotides and bile flow due to various bile salts as well as secretin or theophylline. Experiments were performed in rabbits with anesthesia produced by the injection of seconal(30 mg/kg). Rabbits had the cystic duct ligated and the proximal end of the divided common duct cannulated with an appropriately sized polyethylene catheter. A similar catheter was placed into the inferior vena cava for administration of drugs. Bile was collected for determination of cyclic nucleotides and total cholate in 15 min. intervals for a few hours. The results are summerized as followings. 1) Administrations of taurocholic acid or chenodeoxycholic acid increased significantly the concentrations of cAMP and cGMP in bile of rabbits. 2) Concentration of cAMP in bile during the continuous infusion of ursodeoxycholic acid, was remarkedly increased in accordance with the increase of bile flow, while on the contrary concentration of cGMP in bile was decreased significantly. 3) Dehydrocholic acid and deoxycholic acid significantly increased bile flow, total cholate output and cyclic nucleotides in bile. 4) Only cAMP concentration in bile was significantly increased from control value by secretin, while theophylline increased cAMP as well as cGMP in rabbit bile. 5) In addition, the administration of secretin to taurocholic acid-stimulated bile flow increased cAMP while theophylline produced the increases of cAMP and cGMP in bile. 6) The administration of insulin to taurocholic acid-stimulated bile flow decreased cAMP concentration, while on the contrary cGMP was remarkedly increased in rabbit bile.

생명구조장치(ECLS)는 호흡부전 및 심부전에 적용하는 장치로 세계적으로 많은 연구개발과 임상시도가 계속되고 있다. 현재까지 생명구조장치의 혈류펌프로는 비박동형 구동장치가 표준으로 사용되고 있으며, 박동형 구동장치는 생리적인 측면에서 유리하지만 급격한 회로압 상승과 그에 따른 혈구손상에 대한 우려가 있고 특히 막형산화기를 사용하는 인공폐 회로에서 기피되어 왔다. 본 연구는 인공폐 실험모델에서 단일 박동형 구동펌프와 막형 산화기 사이에 압력완충장치를 설치함으로써 언급한 부작용을 최소화시키면서 생리적인 박동혈류를 유도할 수 있을 것이라는 가능성을 검증하였다. 실험대상은 올레익산으로 급성 호흡부전증이 유발된 잡견(N=16)을 사용하였다. 실험군은 사용된 구동펌프의 종류와 압력완충장치의 유무에 따라 3개 군으로 분류하였다. 제1군(n=6)은 대조군으로 원심펌프를 이용하였고, 제2군(n=4)은 단일 박동형 구동펌프를 사용하였으며, 제3군(n=6)은 단일 박동형 구동펌프에 압력완충장치를 설치하였다. 실험모델은 흉강 절개 후 우심방-대동맥을 우회시키는 부분 체외순환 형태로, 1.8～2 L/min의 펌프박출량에서 2시간을 구동하였다. 관찰지표는 주로 혈역학 변화, 회로압, 혈액검사 및 혈구세포에 미치는 영향 등에 한정하였다. 맥동압(pulse pressure)은 박동형 구동펌프를 이용한 2군(47$\pm$10 mmHg)과 3군(41$\pm$9 mmHg)에서 비박동형 원심펌프를 이용한 1군(17$\pm$7 mmHg)에 비해 유의하게 높았다(p<0.001). 막형산화기에 걸리는 회로압은 1 군의 경우 222$\pm$8mmHg, 2군의 경우 739 $\pm$ 35 mmHg, 3군의 경우 470$\pm$ 17 mmHg였다(p<0.001). 순환 2시간째의 동맥혈 산소분압은 1군에 비해 박동혈류를 사용하는 2군과 3군에서 현저하게 높았다(77$\pm$41, 96$\pm$48, 97$\pm$25 mmHg; p<0.05). 혈구손상지표인 혈장 유리 헤모글로빈치는 1군에서 가장 낮았고, 2군에서 가장 높았으며, 3군에서 유의하게 감소하였다(55.7$\pm$43.3, 162.8$\pm$113.6, 82.5$\pm$25.1 mg%; p<0.05). 기타 혈액검사치는 특별한 차이가 없었다. 이상의 결과에서 단일 박동형 구동펌프는 비박동형 원심펌프에 비해 막형산화기의 산소교환에 유리한 반면, 회로압과 혈구세포 손상 측면에서 불리하다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 단일 박동형 구동펌프와 막형 산화기 사이에 압력완충장치를 설치하는 경우, 회로압 상승과 혈구세포손상을 유의하게 감소시킬 수 있었다.
