벼멸구에 대해 살충성이 있는 2-carbomethoxy-4-chlorodiethyl phosphate를 신농약으로 개발할 목적으로 변이원성 시험, 즉 유전자복귀돌연변이, 염색체이상 및 소핵시험을 수행하였다. Salmonella typhimurium을 이용한 복귀돌연변이원성을 TA1535, TA1537, TA98과 TA100 균주를 이용하여 시험한 결과 대사활성화물질(S-9mix)의 첨가여부에 관계없이 유전자에 이상을 미치지 않았으며, CHL세포에 대한 세포독성은 EMEM 배지에서 $LC_{50}$이 $200{\mu}g/m{\ell}$이었으므로 $200{\mu}g/m{\ell}$을 최고농도로 공비2, 농도4로 염색체이상시험을 실시한 결과 200과 $100{\mu}g/m{\ell}$에서 이상세포가 나타났으나 양성으로 판정되지는 않았다. 2-Carbomethoxy-4-chlorodiethyl phosphate가 ICR 마우스의 골수세포에 미치는 영향을 탐색하기 위해 실시한 소핵시험에서도 음성대조, 양성대조 및 시험물질처리 군에서 PCE 및 MNPCE의 출현율이 모두 정상범위 내에 있어서 2-carbomethoxy-4-chlorodiethyl phosphate가 ICR 마우스의 골수세포에 소핵을 형성시키지 않는 것이 확인되었다. 이상의 결과를 종합할 때 2-carbomethoxy-4-chlorodiethyl phosphate는 미생물, 배양세포 그리고 생체 내에서 유전물질에 영향을 주지 않는 물질인 것으로 판단된다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate and analyze current educational requirements related to genetics curriculum(from June 2002 to September 2002) established at nursing institutions and to provide the basic data for the development of genetics science program at the undergraduate. Subjects of this study were comprised of twenty-three colleges of nursing in 4-year baccalaureate and thirty colleges in 3-year diploma programs. The results of this study were as follows : 1) 32 colleges offer courses related to genetics. 29 among 32 colleges have that integrated. Three schools have established completely independent courses of genetics. 21 colleges do not have any courses dealing with genetics. 2) The contents of courses related to genetics include: Congenital abnormalities, chromosomal aberrations, congenital metabolic disease, prenatal diagnosis and genetic counseling, genes and chromosomes, immune genetics, blood type and genetics, rule of genetics, variation in gene expression, the map of the human gene, gene linkage genetics, interaction of genes, single inheritance in order and genetic biochemistry. 3) For course credit, 14colleges(48.3%) offered at most 1 credit per course. The grade of student who can take the course, 51.7% were in their second year while 37.9% were in their third year. The majors of nursing faculty who taught the course were nursing(51.7%) and basic nursing science(17.2%). 4) As far as the need of opening the courses related to genetics, 36 colleges(67.0%) have made a 'need', 12 schools(22.6%) state 'dose not need'. 711e reason for need were the following development of bio engineering, increase number of patients who are related to genetics, recognition of the need in clinical nursing. 7 schools(13.2%) agreed to offer independent course in genetics but 39 schools(73.6%) are in disagreement with that. When the school offers the course with other courses, 27 schools(50.0%) are opening basic nursing science and 14 schools(26.4%) are opening nursing as an integrated courses. If the name of course was either genetic nursing(34.0%) or genetics(28.3%), the credits for the course was one or 2 credits. 33 schools(62.3%) students were in the first or second years. 41 schools(84.9%), the majors of the faculty who had taught the course were either basic nursing science(35.8%), nursing(28.3%) or basic medicine(24.5%). The contents of the course should include in that order: Chromosome aberrations, prenatal diagnosis and genetic counseling, congenital metabolic disease, congenital abnormalities, genes and chromosomes, the rules of genetics, immune genetics, interaction of genes, variation in gene expression, etc. The results and discussions of the study indicate that the entire curriculums need to be investigated with respect to contents of education, nursing curriculums and name of courses because of the increasing need of knowledge related to genetics in the clinical practice.

Objectives : Yukmijihwang-tang(Wan), a well-known formula for invigorating yin-particular kidney yin, was first recorded in "Xiao er Yao Zheng Zhi Jue", consisting of Radix Rehmanniae Preparata, Fructus Macrocarpii, Rhizoma Dioscoreae Oppositae, Poria, Rhizoma Alismatis and Cortex Moutan Radicis with dose proportion of 8:4:4:3:3:3. Although clinical trials have been lacking, various pharmacological actions for Yukmijihwang-tang has been identified newly using animal models. In addition, it was reported that Yukmijihwang-tang increases structural chromosome aberrations significantly in Chinese hamster lung cells. In this article, it is purposed that new studies for pharmacology and toxicology of Yukmijihwang-tang are reviewed. Insight into new studies of Yukmijihwang-tang at the cellular and animal levels will enhance our understanding of Yukmijihwang-tang against various diseases will provide new tools to diagnose and treat patients. Methods : Recent researches for Yukmijihwang-tang were reviewed and summarized in terms of pharmacological action and toxicity. All sources for review were based on recent studies loaded on data base of web sites such as Science Direct and National Center for Biotechnology Information. Results and Conclusions : Recently, reports showed that YMJ had antiaging effects, antioxidant and free radical scavenging activities, anti-renal hypertension and prevented tumors, and diabetes mellitus. However, there is little information on its safety except general toxicity, acute and sub-chronic oral toxicity, or genotoxicity. In addition, clinical trial for Yukmijihwang-tang was limited even though Yukmijihwang-tang has been used extensively in Korean traditional medicine. Thus, further studies are necessary to focus on safety evaluation and clinical trial for Yukmijihwang-tang.

The validation of many synthetic chemicals that may pose a genetic hazard in our environment is of great concern at present. Since these substances are not limited to the original products, and enter the environment, they have become widespread environmental pollutants, thus leading to a variety of chemicals that possibly threaten the public health. In this respect, the regulation and evaluation of the chemical hazard playa very important role to environment and human health. The clastogenicity of 11 synthetic chemicals was evaluated in Chinese hamster lung (CHL) fibroblast in vitro. Benzoyl chloride (CAS No. 98-88-4) induced chromosomal aberrations with statistical significance at the concentration of 31-123 $\mug/ml$ and 43 $\mug/ml$ in the absence and presence of S-9 metabolic activation system, respectively. 2-Propyn-l-o1 (CAS No. 107-19-7) and 2-Phenoxy ethanol (CAS No. 122-99-6) revealed clastogenicity only at the highest concentration in the presence of S-9 mixture. However, 1-naphthol (CAS No. 90-15-3) which is one of the most cytotoxic chemical among 11 chemicals tested revealed no clastogenicity both in the presence and absence of S-9 metabolic activation system. From the results of chromosomal aberration assay with 11 synthetic chemicals in CHL fibroblast in vitro, Benzoyl chloride (CAS No. 98-88-4), 2-Propyn-l-01 (CAS No. 107-19-7) and 2-Phenoxy ethanol (CAS No. 122-99-6) revealed positive clastogenic results in this study.

Between 1988-1998, cytogenetic analyses were performed for 1,476 couples and 162 women with recurrent abortions. We applied GTG-banding, high resolution-banding and FISH (fluorescent in situ hybridization) techniques in this study. The frequency of balanced translocations was 3.6% (112/3114). Of them, 74 cases (2.38%) were reciprocal translocations and 38 (1.22%) were robertsonian translocations. Chromosome aberrations were more frequent in women (80 cases) than in men (32 cases). No phenotypical abnormalities were found in all carriers who had experienced recurrent spontaneous abortions or experienced giving birth to malformed offsprings. Prenatal cytogenetic analyses were carried out on 40 subsequent pregnancies for carrier couples with balanced translocation. The fetal karyotypes showed that 13 cases (32.5%) were normal, 25 (62.5%) were balanced translocations, and two (6%) were unbalanced translocations. It is believed that the frequency of chromosomal abnormalities in patients with recurrent spontaneous abortion is higher than that of the normal population. Most of the fetal samples showed normal karyotypes or balanced translocations matching that of one of their parents. Although the incidence of chromosomal imbalance in the fetuses was relatively low in prenatal cytogenetic analysis, individuals with balanced translocations are predisposed to giving birth to malformed offsprings with partial trisomy or monosomy. Therefore, we recommend the cytogenetic and the prenatal cytogenetic analysis for those who experiences recurrent abortion as well as in case they become pregnant, to prevent the birth of offsprings with chromosomal abnormalities.

This study was conducted to evaluate the mutagenic potential of dimethyl isophthalate (DMIP) using Ames bacterial reverse mutation test, chromosomal aberration test and mouse lymphoma $tk^{+/-}$ gene assay. As results, in Ames bacterial reversion assay, DMIP was tested up to the concentration of 5,000 ${\mu}g$/plate and did not induce mutagenicity in Salmonella typhimurium strains TA98, TA100, TA1535 and TA1537, and Escherichia coli WP2uvrA with or without metabolic activation (S9 mix). Using cytotoxicity test, the maximal doses of DMIP for chromosomal aberration assay were determined at 1,250 ${\mu}g/mL$, which was a minimum precipitation concentration ($IC_{50}>1,940\;{\mu}g/mL$ or 10 mM) and at 155 ${\mu}g/mL$ ($IC_{50}:155\;{\mu}g/mL$) in the presence and the absence, respectively, of S9 mix. DMIP in the presence of S9 mix induced statistically significant (P<0.001) increases in the number of cells with chromosome aberrations at the dose levels of over 250 ${\mu}g/mL$, when compared with the negative control. However, DMIP in the absence of S9 mix did not caused significant induction in chromosomal aberrant cells. In MLA, DMIP at the dose range of 242.5-1,940 ${\mu}g/mL$ in the presence of S9 mix induced statistically significant increases in mutation frequencies related to small colony growth, whereas any significant mutation frequency was not observed in absence of S9 mix. From these results, it is conclusively suggested that dimethyl isophthalate may be a clastogen rather than a point mutagen.

목적: 조사선량별로 인체 말초혈액 림프구에서 염색체 손상은 중기염색체 분석법으로, 그리고 세포고사는 annexin V를 이용한 유세포계측법으로 정량화하여 서로 비교해 봄으로써, 인체 말초혈액 림프구가 조사선량에 따라 세포사망에 이르는 과정을 밝혀보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 염색체 이상을 동반하는 질환이 없는 건강한 자원자 10명(남자 6명, 여자 4명, 연령범위 $23{\sim}41세$)을 대상으로 하였으며, 이들로부터 혈액을 채혈하여 실험에 이용하였다. 채혈한 혈액으로부터 림프구를 분리하여 0.18, 2, 5, 10, 20. 25 Gy를 조사하였으며, 방사선을 조사하지 않은 림프구를 대조군으로 하였다. 방사선에 조사된 실험군과 대조군을 각각 중기염색체 분석법과 유세포계측법으로 검사하였으며, 중기염색체 분석법에서는 600개의 림프구로부터 불안정 염색체인 2중심염색체와 반지모양 염색체의 수를 계수하였고, 유세포 계측법에서는 세포막의 변화는 annexin V에 결합된 FITC의 섭취로, 그리고 세포핵의 변화는 PI의 섭취로 보았다. 실험군 간의 차이는 ANOVA 검사로, 그리고 두 검사법간의 상관관계는 Pearson의 상관검사로 알아보았다. 결과: 방사선을 조사하지 않은 세포군에서도 불안정 염색체가 $0.5{\pm}0.53$개 관찰되었으며, 실험군에서는 조사선량의 증가에 따라 불안정 염색체의 숫자가 유의하게 증가되었다(p<0.001). 조사선량의 증가에 따라 초기 세포고사는 증가하다가 다시 감소하는 양상을 보이나, 후기 세포고사는 조사선량에 따라 증가하는 양상을 보였다. 중기염색체 분석에서 보이는 불안정 염색체의 수와 Ydr, Qdr 값은 초기 세포고사와는 유의한 상관관계를 보이지 않고, 후기 세포고사와는 매우 유의한 상관관계를 보이고 있었다(p<0.01). 결론: 조사선량에 따른 불안정 염색체의 증가는 유세포계측법으로 검사한 세포핵의 변화와 밀접한 상관관계를 가지고 있었다. 반면 세포막의 변화는 염색체 손상과 관계가 없었으며, 조사선량의 증가에 비례하여 증가하지도 않았다.
