The purpose of this study was to investigate the irradiatiion effects on the capillary and endothelial cell in the submandibular gland. Sprague-Dawley strain male rats were singly irradiated to their neck region with the dose of 5Gy by 6MV X-irradiation and sacrificed on the 6 hours, 12 hours, 1, 3, 7, and 14days after irradiation. The authors observed the histological changes of the capillary at H & E and PAS staining under a light microscope, and also observed the ultrastructural changes of the endothelial cell using a transmission electron microscope. The obtaining results were as follows: 1. In the light microscopic examination, the capillary density was slightly increased on the 1day after irradiation, and increased until the 7 days after irradiatiion. After then, capillary density was apparently decreased. 2. The reaction to PAS staining at acinar cells was decreased on the 6 hours after irradiation, and recovered on the 7days after irradiation. But reaction was decreased on the 14days after irradiation agan, after then, gradually recovered with days. 3. In the transmission electron microscopic examination, mild proliferation of cytoplasmic process of the endothelial cell and reduction in luminal size were observed just after irradiation. After then, nuclear degeneration, marked proliferation of cytoplasmic process, thickened basal lamina, and numerous cytoplasmic vesicles were observed on the 1day after irradiation. These changes were recovered to normal on the 14days after 5Gy group, but not with 10Gy irradiation group. And destruction of endothelial cell and loss of basal lamina were not observed in both groups. 4. From the above results, reduction in luminal size, proliferation of cytoplasmic process and thickening of basal lamina were observed as the irradiation effects on the capillary and endothelial cell of the submandibular gland. And also, these changes may induce increase in capillary number and endothelial permeability by means of increase of cytoplasmic vesicle formation. The changes appeared earlier and more prominent in 10Gy irradiated group than in 5Gy irradiated group.

Degranulation of the rat peritoneal mast cell induced by intraperitoneal injection of horseradish peroxidase(HRP) was studied using light and electron microscopes. 1. Rat peritoneal mast cells in the Tyrode's buffered salt solution injected control group did not show any particular morphological changes following the specified time course. 2. Under the light microscope, the majority of mast cells observed 10 minutes after HRP injection were nearly the same as those of the control group. However, after 30 minutes, granule densities or staining properties of certain cells began to decrease and these appearances increased gradually until 12 hours after injection, at which time small groups of granules being stained pale-red or pink with toluidine blue were easily identified in the cytoplasm of many cells, and numerous extruded granuleg were scattered around these cells. 3. In the mast cells representing the early stage of degranulation induced by HRP, the electron densities of certain granules decreased as the size enlarged, and perigranular cavities were formed by perigranular membrane expansion. As a result, a thin cytoplasmic septum was formed between the expanded perigranular membrane and the cytoplasmic membrane in the cell periphery, and fusion of the adjacent perigranular membranes was observed in the inner side of the cell. 4. In some mast cells, one or two changes in the peripheral cytoplasmic septum could be seen. One was a focal rupture of the peripheral septum and the other was the formation of a saccule containing one or more vesicles. This saccule was thought to be used for granule-extrusion site and/or material absorptive apparatus judging from the morphological characteristics. 5. As the degranulation proceeded, the granule was extruded from the cell after partial rupture of the peripheral cytoplasmic septum. This phenomenon proceeded to-ward the inner side of the cell through the fused perigranular cavities, and consequently several distinct cavities containing a few unextruded membrane-free granules were formed throughout the cytoplasm after 12 hours. As a rule, the granule-extrusion sites were relatively fewer while the cytoplasmic cavities resulting from degranulation were more numerously observed. Thus, it was thought that the granule-extrusion sites tended to be restricted in the HRP-induced degranulation.

Subconfluent neonatal human epidermal keratinocytes were treated with a concentration 200 ng/$m\ell$ of human recombinant epidermal growth factor (hrEGF), human recombinant insulin-like growth factor-1 (hrIGF-1), and with a combination of hrEGF and hrIGF-1. Cytoplasmic and membrane-associated proteins were extracted and assayed. Proteins were separated by SDS-PAGE, and subjected to the western blot analysis. In the cytoplasmic fraction, the PKC concentration of keratinocyte treated with hrIGF-1 was higher than the control group, but the concentration of control group was the highest than the others in the membrane fraction. In the cytoplasmic fraction, EGF stimulated PKC-$\beta$II, -$\delta$, -$\theta$, and also stimulated PKC-$\alpha$, -$\beta$I, -$\delta$, -$\Im$ and -$\theta$ in the membrane fraction. IGF-1 stimulated PKC-$\beta$I, -$\Im$ and -$\theta$ in the cytoplasmic, PKC-$\alpha$, -$\beta$I, -$\delta$, -$\Im$, - $\varepsilon$ and -$\theta$ in the membrane. In the cells treated with a combination of EGF and IGF-1, PKC-$\alpha$, -$\beta$I, -$\Im$ and -$\theta$ in the cytoplasmic fraction, PKC-$\alpha$, -$\delta$, -$\Im$, -$\varepsilon$ and -$\theta$ in the membrane fraction were stimulated.

This study was conducted to investigate the utility and agronomic characteristics and use of cytoplasmic. male-sterile (CMS) haploid plants derived from interspecific cross between (male-sterile NC82$\times$burley21) F$_1$ plant (Nicotiana tabacum L.) and Nicotiana africana. Abundant seeds of high germinability were obtained when Nicotiana tabacum (cytoplasmic male-sterile F$_1$ plants) is pollinated by Nicotiana africana. Most of seedlings died at the cotyledonary stage. The remaining seedlings are viable F$_1$ hybrids or maternal haploids that can be easily distinguished. Number of interspecific Fl hybrids and matermal haploids per capsule obtained from the interspecific cross between cytoplasmic male-sterile tobacco F$_1$ plants and N.africana yielded 2.2 and 0.5 plants, respectively. Out of 149 CMS haploid plants obtained from interspecific cross, 102 plants showed green type while the others were yellow type for leaf and stem. This results agreed with the genetic ratios expected among haploid plants from the F$_1$ hybrids heterozygous for two recessive genes of yellow color of burley tobacco plant. Out of 83 CMS haploid plants inoculated with TMV, 48 plants showed resistant, while the others was susceptible. It agreed with the expected genetic ratios for a single dominant gene of TMV resistance. CMS haploid plant will be useful as a source material for breeding of CMS doubled haploid lines

Ultrastructural characteristics of blacktip grouper, Epinephelus fasciatus spermatozoa were investigated using transmission and scanning electron microscopy. The spermatozoa of E. fasciatus consisted of a spherical head part, a midpiece with cytoplasmic canal entrance and a flagellum with lateral fins. Internal ultrastructurally, the nucleus contains high electron dense chromatin having granular particles and has no acrosome. The centriolar complex lies outside of the nuclear fossa and it is connected by the osmophilic filaments. Also the osmophilic filaments connect between the centriolar complex and the nuclear membrane. The midpiece contains eight to nine spherical mitochondria, cytoplasmic canal and necklaces. The flagellum has a typical 9+2 axonemal structure. The lateral fins contain vesicles and a typical 9+2 axonemal structure. Consequently this study contributes to comparative grouper spermatology and provide useful systematic taxonomic characters.

This experiment was carried out to investigate the capability of production of artificial milk for leaf protein concentrate (LPC). Chloroplastic protein and cytoplasmic protein were extracted from leaves of Dystaenia takeshimana Nakai and LPC was extracted from leaves of Italian ryegrass to increase the functional properties of LPC as a level of milk casein. One gram of chloroplastic protein and cytoplasmic protein and 1g of LPC were succinylated by addition of succinic anhydride 0.1, 0.25, and 1g respectively. Their functional properties were investigated in this experiment. The results obtained were summarized as follows: 1. The non-succinylated LPC showed a higher value in bulk density than the chloroplastic protein, the cytoplasmic protein and LPC succinylated by addition of succinic anhydride 0.1, 0.25, and 1g respectively. Nevertheless, succinylation had an enhancing effect as indicated by the rises as the degrees of succinylation was increased. 2. Although solubility of non-succinylated LPC was lower than that of milk casein, succinylation caused an effective increase in the solubility of the protein and LPC. 3. Water absorption and fat absorption of succinylated LPC were twice to eight times higher than those of milk casein. Fat absorption was not influenced to the extent by succinylation as the water absorption. Excessive succinylation resulted in the decrease of both water absorption and fat absorption. 4. Emulsifying activity and emulsion stability were increased in proportion to the succinylated degree of LPC. More than 10% increase in the amount of succinic anhydride resulted in an apparent increase in emulsifying activity and emulsion stability. Besides, the succinylated LPC showed more excellent functional properties in emulsifying activity and emulsion stability than milk.

A study was made on the interstrain difference in dose-infection response and induction response of silkworm to the two strains of cytoplasmic polyhedrosis virus to obtain some informations on screening the leading strains. Comparison of dose-infection responses of larvae following the inoculation of the inclusion body of cytoplasmic polyhedrosis virus revealed that there is no significance in the resistance to dose-infection and any of strains were more resistant at advanced stage(4th instar) than younger stage(2nd instar). In the pathogenicity between cytoplasmic polyhedrosis virus with hexagonal and tetragonal outline, the hexagonal polyhedra showed higher pathogenicity than the tetragonal polyhedra. However, the averages of $LC_{50}$ of cytoplasmic polyhedrosis virus with hexagonal outline to larvae of parental inbred line were 6.12${\times}$10$\^$6//$m\ell$ at 2nd instar and 1.57${\times}$10$\^$7//$m\ell$ at 4th instar in spring and those to their hybrids were 1.28${\times}$10$\^$6//$m\ell$ at 2nd ins tar and 4.99${\times}$10$\^$6//$m\ell$ at 4th ins tar in autumn. Meanwhile the $LC_{50}$ averages of tetragonal polyhedra. to larvae of parental inbred line were 2.06${\times}$10$\^$7//$m\ell$ at 2nd instar and 5.67${\times}$10$\^$7//$m\ell$ at 4th instar in spring and those to their hybrids were 9.84${\times}$10$\^$6//$m\ell$ at 2nd instar and 3.86${\times}$10$\^$7//$m\ell$ at 4th instar in autumn, respectively. In comparison of induction response of silkworm larvae to inoculation of tetragonal polyhedra of cytoplasmic polyhedrosis virus, the induction rate of hexagonal polyhedra was remarkably higher in the treatment of inoculation at 2nd instar than at 4th instar and at the concentration of 1.3${\times}$10$\^$6//$m\ell$ than at any others. Most of induction showed a mixed infection with hexagonal and tetragonal polyhedra of cytoplasmic polyhedrosis virus.

The purpose of the production of monoclonal antibodies aganist the Canine distemper virus(CDV) were perfect diagnosis and a new approach to treat canine distemper because the diagnosis and treatment of canine distemper were difficult. Canine distemper virus(CDV) was purified using saturated ammonium sulfate, and injected into hind footpads of BALB/c mouse. 12-15 days later, popliteal lymph node(PN) cells were harvested and fused with SP2/O myeloma cells. Characteristics of monoclonal antibodies were analysed. 1. 9 hybridomas produce the specific antibody against CDV. 2. 6 monoclonal antibodies are against intranuclear and cytoplasmic component of CDV, and 3 monoclonal antibodies are against cytoplasmic inclusions. 3. All monoclonal antibodies did not react with other 5 different viruses (CAV-I, CAV-II, CCV, CPV and CPIV) and react with another CDV-FXNO strain. 4. 3 monoclonal antibodies have neutralizing activity against CDV. 5. Antigenic difference was observed between CDV by IFA.
