Annexin I is a member of the annexin family of calcium dependent phospholipid binding proteins and has anti-inflammatory activity by inhibiting phospholipase A$_2$ (PLA$_2$). Recent X-ray crystallographic study of annexin I identified six Ca$\^$2+/ binding bites, which was different types (type II, III) from the well-known EF-hand motif (type I). In this work, the structure of annexin I was studied at atomic level by using $^1$H, $\^$15/N and $\^$l3/C NMR(nuclear magnetic resonance) spectroscopy, and the effect of Ca$\^$2+/ binding on the structure of annexin I was studied, and compared with that of Mg$\^$2+/ binding, When Ca$\^$2+/ was added to annexin I, NMR peak change was occured in high- and low-field regions of $^1$H-NMR spectra. NMR peak change by Ca$\^$2+/ binding was different from that by Mg$\^$2+/ binding. Because annexin I is a larger protein with 35 kDa molecular weight, site-specific (amide-$\^$15/N, carbonyl-$\^$l3/C) labeling technique was also used. We were able to detect methionine, tyrosine and phenylalanine peaks respectively in $\^$13/C-NMR spectra, and each residue was able to be assigned by the method of doubly labeling annexin I with [$\^$13/C] carbonyl-amino acid and [$\^$15/N] amide-amino acid. In $\^$l3/C-NMR spectra of [$\^$13/C] carbonyl-Met labeled annexin I, we observed that methionine residues spatially located near Ca$\^$2+/ binding Sites Were Significantly effected by Ca$\^$2+/ binding. From UV spectroscopic data on the effect of Ca$\^$2+/ binding, we knew that Ca$\^$2+/ binding sites of annexin I have cooperativity in Ca$\^$2+/ binding. The interaction of annexin I with PLA$_2$ also could be detected by using heteronuclear NMR spctroscopy. Consequently, we expect that the anti-inflammatory action mechanism of annexin I may be a specific protein-protein interaction. The residues involved in the interaction with PLA$_2$ can be identified as active site by assigning NMR peaks effected by PLA$_2$ binding.
This study examined 40 healthy volunteers had been tested for their gallbladder (GB) volume and wall thickness by a real time ultrasonography before and after a meal. The results are as follows : 1. The mean values of GB volume were 47.40. (SD 9.05) for male, 35.72. (SD 8.30) for female. 2. The mean value of wall thickness of GB was 2.3 mm (SD 0.3, male, SD 0.5, female). 3.

To supply a stable amount of standard material to detect paralytic shellfish toxin (PST), we examined possible increases in toxic content in Alexandrium catenella and A. pacificum using a light emitting diode (LED), which is one of the most eco-friendly and economical lighting method. When comparing the growth rates of organisms and wavelengths of light used, the half saturation constants (Ks) of red wavelength were higher than those of other wavelengths. In contrast, the Ks of blue wavelength were lower than those of other wavelengths. Moreover, when comparing the toxic contents and wavelengths of light used, red wavelength produced approximately 8 times more toxic content in A. catenella and approximately 3.2 times more toxic content in A. pacificum than other wavelengths. Thus, the toxic content present in the organism might be closely related to the Ks of light. The optimum light source to be used to ensure economically ef ective and productive growth in an Alexandrium culture system (photo-bioreactor) would likely consist of a two-phase culture, wherein a blue LED is used during the lag and exponential phases to increase growth rates, followed by the use of a red LED during late exponential and stationary phases to achieve increased PST yields.
Electronic and magnetic properties of the novel rare-earth permanent magnet, $Sm_{2}Fe_{17}N_{3}$, are investigated by performing self-consistent local density functional electronic structure calculations. Employing the LMTO(Linearized Muffin-Tin Orbital) band method, we have obtained the electronic band structures for both paramag-netic and ferromagnetic phases of $Sm_{2}Fe_{17}N_{3}$. Based on the energy band structures, we have studied bonding ef-fects among Sm, Fe, and N atom as well as electronic and magnetic structures. It is found that the N atom sub-stantially reduces the magnetic moment of neighboring Fe atoms through the hybridization interaction and also plays a role in stabilizing the structure. the average magnetic moment of Fe atoms in the ferromagnetic phase of $Sm_{2}Fe_{17}N_{3}$ is estimated to be $2.33{\mu}_B$, which is ~8% larger than the magnetic moment of $Sm_{2}Fe_{17}$, $2.16{\mu}_B$. The Fe I (c) atom, which is located farthest from the N atom and surrounded by 12 Fe nearest neighbors, has the largest magnetic moment ($2.65{\mu}_B$), while the Fe III (f), whose hybridization interaction with N atom is very strong, has the smallest magnetic moment($1.96{\mu}_B$).

Thirty-one patients with coronary artery disease and twenty-sir normal subjects underwent $^{99m}Tc-GBPS$ before and after coronary vasodilatation was induced by dipyridamle 0.54 mg/kg given IV over 4 min. LVEF, ${\Delta}EF$ and regional wall motion by phase analysis were measured during rest and dipyridamole infusion. The results were as follows: 1) Mean LVEF of normal subjects was significantly higher than that of MI group (p=0.001), but similar to that of angina group during rest. Among MI group, mean LVEF of anterior MI group was significantly lower than that of inferior MI group during rest (p=0.024). 2) The normal subjects had a significaat increase in mean LVEF during dipyridamole infusion $(+12{\pm}3.8)$, while the CAD group had no increase $(+2{\pm}5.0)$ (p<0.001). If an increase of LVEF during stress is less than 5%, it suggests an abnormality. The sensitivity and specificity of LVEF changes after dipyridamole infusion were 81%, 96%, respectively. 3) With phase analysis, LV mean phase angle of normal subjects and CAD patients was $143{\pm}20.5^{\circ},\;132{\pm}20.6^{\circ}$ respectively, durign rest (p=0.049). But an ncrease of LV mean phase angle during dipyridamole infusion in these two groups was not significantly different. Dipyridamole infusion did not affect standard deviation and FWHM of phase angle. 4) Regional wall motion was abnormal in 5 patients (16%) during dipyridamole infusion. 5) Side effects with dipyridamole infusion include; headache, angina pain, chest discomfirt, nausea, weakness sense. In conclusion, dipyridamole GBPS might be useful in detection and follow up of CAD.

Purpose: The Gated cardiac blood pool scan is non-invasive method that a quantitative evaluation of left ventricular function. Also this scan have shown the value of radionuclide ejection fraction measurements during the course of chemotherapy as a predictor of cardiac toxicity. Therefore a reliable method of monitoring its cardiotoxic effects is necessary. the purpose of this study is to minimize the overestimate of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) by modified body position to reduce the influence of scattered rays from surrounding organs of the heart in the background region of interest. Materials and Methods: Gated cardiac blood pool scan using in vivo $^{99m}Tc$-red blood cell (RBC) was carried out in 20 patients (mean $44.8{\pm}8.6$ yr) with chemotherapy for a breast carcinoma. Data acquisition requires about 600 seconds and 24 frames of one heart cycle by the multigated acquisition mode, Synchronization deteriorates toward the end of the cycle and with the distance from the trigger signal (R-wave) by ECG gating. Gated cardiac blood pool scan was studied with conventional method (supine position and the detector head in $30-45^{\circ}$ left anterior oblique position and caudal $10-20^{\circ}$ tilt) and compared with modified method (left lateral flexion position with 360 mL of drinking water). LVEF analysis was performed by using the automatically computer mode. Results: The ROI counts of modified scan method were lower than LV conventional method ($1429{\pm}251$ versus $1853{\pm}243$, <0.01). And LVEF of modified method was also decrease compared with conventional method ($58.3{\pm}5.6%$ versus $65.3{\pm}6.1%$, <0.01). Imaging analysis indicated that stomach was expanded because of water and spleen position was changed to lateral inferior compared with conventional method. Conclusion: This study shows that the modified method in MUGA reduce the influence of scattered rays from surrounding organs. Because after change the body position to left lateral flexion and drinking water, the location of spleen, left lobe of liver and stomach had changed and they could escaped from background ROI. Therefore, modified method could help to minimize the overestimate LVEF (%).
This study was designed to investigate effect of cryoprotectant kinds and cell stages on the viability of bovine embryos cryopreserved by vitrification. The oocytes were collected from ovarian follicles of Korean native cows. The follicular oocytes were cultured in TCM-199 medium containing hormone and 10%(v/v) FCS for 24~48hrs in a incubator with 5% $CO_2$, in air at 38.5$^{\circ}C$ and then matured oocytes were again cultured for 7~10 hrs with spermatozoa capacitated by preincubation. The vitrification solutions of EFS and EDS were consisted of 40%(v/v) ethylene glycol, 18%(v/v) Ficoll and 0.3M sucrose, and 20%(v/v) ethylene glycol, 16.5%(v/v) DMSO and 0.5M sucrose in TCM-199 medium supplemented with 10% FCS, respectively. The embryos were exposed to EFS or EDS at $25^{\circ}C$ and loaded into OPP straw for 30 sec. The plug end of each straws was heat-sealed and straws was slowly immersed into liquid nitrogen(L$N_2$). The results obtained were summarized as follows : 1 . The rates of cleavage and hatching of embryos frozen with vitrification, rapid and slow freezing methods were 67.5%, 27.5% and 42.5%, 20.0% and 52.5%, 25.0%, respectively And rates of cleavage and hatching of embryos frozen with vitrification method were significantly(p<0.05) higher than those in other methods, and the rates were lower than those in control group(82.5% and 37.5%). 2. The rates of cleavage and hatching of embryos were significantly(p<0.05) different between EFS(47.5% and 22.5%) and EPS(52.5% and 27.5%), and the rates were lower than those in control group(82.5% and 37.5%). 3. After vitrification freezing of bovine embryos at zygote, 2 cell, 8 cell, morulae and blastocyst stage, the rate of cleavage and hatching were 25.0% and 15.0%, 32.5% and 20.0%, 37.5% and 20.0%, 52.5%, 27.5%, 47.5% and 25.0%, respectively. And developmental rates to the expended blastocyst stage of embryos frozen at zygote stage was significantly(p<0.05) lower rather than those in 2, 8-cell and morulae stage.
Titanium hydroxide (TiO({{{{ {OH }_{2 } }})) fine particles were produced by the reverse micelle technique. For the formation of titanium hydroxide (TiO({{{{ {OH }_{2 } }})) particles with the technique reversed micellar solution was prepared by solubilizing water into organic solvent (isooctane) with a surfactant and titanium alkoxide (tetraisopropyl orthotitanate) diluted with isopropyl alcohol was added to the reversed micellar solution. The hdrolyzed species (TiO({{{{ {OH }_{2 } }})) was formed by the hydrolysis of titanium alkoxide and titanium dioxide is then formed by the condensation of the hydrolyzed species. There are several process variables such as surfactants concentration of surface cosurfactant hydrolysis temperature and pH. In this work the ef-fects of process variables on paticle shapes particle size distribution and paticle agglomeration were bi-nodal for an anionic surfactant(AOT) in the whole range of temperature pH and surfactant concentration of this experiment. The addition of ethanol as a cosurfactant resulted in narrow particle size distribution of the experiment. The additiono of ethanol as a cosurfactant resulted in narrow particle size distribution and 0.12${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ of smaller average particle diameter. FT-IR spectrum of particles shows the absorption peak of Ti-OH bonding and Ti-O bonding. An exothermic peak around 41$0^{\circ}C$ in TGA-DTA curve shows that crys- tallized anatase phase appears and completely transits to anatase around 45$0^{\circ}C$.

The interest of researchers and governments in exploiting tidal energy resources is increasing. Jangjuk strait is a place with high tidal energy density potential and is therefore appropriate for the constructing of a tidal turbine farm. In this study, a numerical approach is presented to evaluate the current flow and power potential in Jangjuk strait with an ADCIRC model. Then, the tidal field characteristics are utilized as input parameters for tidal resource calculation with an in-house program. The 1 MW scale tidal energy converter devices are employed and arranged in 4 layouts to investigate the annual energy yield as well as flow deficit due to the wake ef ect at the surveyed area. The best-performed array generates an annual energy yield up to 12.96 GWh/year (without considering the wake effect); this value is reduced by 0.16 GWh/year when accounting for the energy loss caused by the flow deficit. Moreover, by altering the turbine yaw angle during the flood and ebb tides, the impacts of this factor on the energy extraction are analyzed. This indicates that the turbine array attains the maximum tidal power when the turbine yaw angle is at 346° and 164° (clockwise, to the North) for the spring and neap tide in turns.

In this study, we determined the correlation between the wave characteristics and the change in the area of Haeundae Beach, conducted regression analysis between the wave characteristics and the change in beach area, and derived a formula for calculating the change in beach area. The change in beach area was calculated by applying the derived formula to wave observation data corresponding to a period of approximately 10 months, and the formula was subsequently validated by comparing the obtained results with the observed area. It is found that the error associated with the formula for calculating the change in beach area ranges from 1.5 m to 2.7 m based on the average beach width, and the correlation coefficient corresponding to the observed area ranges from 0.91 to 0.94. Furthermore, it is observed that the change in beach area is af ected by the wave direction in the western zone, wave height in the central zone, and wave height and wave period in the eastern zone. These results can contribute to understanding the impact of a coastal improvement project on the beach area fluctuation characteristics of Haeundae Beach and the ef ectiveness of such a coastal improvement project. By applying the aforementioned derived formula to highly accurate wave prediction data, the change in beach area can be calculated and incorporated for predicting significant long-term changes in beach areas. Furthermore, such a prediction can be considered as the basis for making decisions while establishing preemptive countermeasure policies to prevent coastal erosion.
