  • Acute injuries to skeletal muscles can lead to significant pain and disability. Muscle pain results in muscle weakness and range of motion (ROM) decreases. Pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF) promote tissue repair, healing rates and reduce musculoskeletal pain. The results of many previous studies suggest that PEMF can contribute to chronic pain reduction, particularly in musculoskeletal injurys. However, we do not have enough information of its effects compared to a placebo. The principal objective of this study was to investigate differences in acute pain induced by the direct destruction of muscle tissue (extensor digitorum) with varying times of the application of PEMF, measured through the expression of c-fos on the spinal cord. Significant reduction of pain was found in groups exposed to PEMF and the group exposed to PEMF immediately after muscle injury showed the most significant differences. In conclusion, PEMF may be a useful strategy in reducing acute pain in muscle injury.

  • 대부분의 인슐린의 작용들은 인슐린 수용체를 통하여 이루어진다. 인슐린이 수용체에 결합하면, 수용체 고유의 tyrosine kinase 효소활성의 증가를 유발시키며, 결과적으로 세포내에 존재하는 기질 단백질, IRS-1, 의 tyrosine 잔기의 인산화를 증가시키게 된다. 이후, 여러 형태의 serine / threonine protein kinase 의 연속적인 활성화가 일어난다. 이들에 부가해서, 인슐린의 효자는 세포핵 내에까지 전달되어 유전자 발현의 조절과 같은 세포핵 고유의 활동에도 관여한다. 현재, 세포막에서 시작된 인슐린의 신호들이 세포핵까지 전달되는 정확한 기전에 대해서는 알려진 바 없지만, 최근의 연구에 의하면 MAP Kinase 와 S6 Kinase 그리고 Transcription Factor AP-1의 중요성이 제시되고 있다. 특히 유전자 조절 기전에는 핵단백질인 transcription factor의 인산화 반응이 큰 역할을 한다고 보고되고 있는바, 본 연구에서 AP-1. transcription factor 의 인산화 반응이 인슐린의 신호전달계에 미치는 역할에 대하여 고찰하였다. 요약하면, AP-1 transcription factor의 구성원인 c-Jun, c-Fos 그리고 Fos 관련 단백질들의 인산화가 인슐린에 의해 증가되며, 동시에 그들의. DNA-binding activity 와 유전자 발현의 활성이 증가됨을 밝힘으로써, AP-1 transcription factor의 인산화 반응이 인슐린의 핵 내에서의 작용기전에 중요한 역할을 함이 제시되고 있다. 또한 AP-1 의 인산화 반응에 관여하는 세포핵 protein kinase로서 Casein Kinase II 의 중요성이 밝혀졌다.

  • Antibiotics supplementation in animal feeds results in bacterial resistance to the antibiotics and residue of the antibiotics in animal products, which can cause serious problems in human health. Therefore, the finding of new substances replacing antibiotics are needed. New substances are egg york antibody, probiotics, organic acid, mannanoligosaccharide(MOS), fructooligosaccharide(FOS), and chitosan etc. Egg york antibody is antibody to obtain from egg york of the chicken injected the specific antigen. Probiotics can prevent the problems of residue of the antibiotics and resistance to the antibiotics. Organic acids ctrl preservation of colostrum inhibit the rottenness and increase the beneficial bacteria. MOS and FOS increase the beneficial bacteria, too. Chitosan is used the immune material to active the anti-bacteria.

  • Early detection in real-time response of slope movements ensures tremendous saving of lives and repair costs from catastrophic disaster Therefore, it is essential to constantly monitor the performance and integrity of slope-stabilizing structures such as Rock bolt, Nail and Pile during or after installation. We developed a novel monitoring system using Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG)sensor. It's advantages are highly sensitivity, small dimension and electro-magnetic immunity. capability of multiplexing, system integrity, remote sensing - these serve real-time health monitoring of the structures. Real-time strain measurement by the signal processing program is shown graphically and it gives a warning sound when the monitored strain state exceeds a given threshold level so that any sign of abnormal disturbance on the spot can be easily perceived.

  • For the calculation of internal stability, the hypothesis in conventional design is on the basis of two distinct zones, which are 'active zone' and 'passive zone'. This means that there is an abrupt discontinuous transition from active to passive states across a potential failure line. The existence of a discontinuity of this nature appears physically unreasonable, especially from kinematic considerations. A series of pull-out model tests was undertaken from a wall being rotated about the toe to find the strain distribution mobilized from near the wall face into the deep, stable zone through the centre plane. With this finding of transition zone, the objective of study is aiming at identifying the likely effect of this zone in designing method by comparing with the prevailing design method.

  • Cudrania tricuspidata Bureau (Moraceae) is a traditional oriental medicine that has been widely used as anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory in Korea. This study was performed that the 70% ethanol extract of the roots of C. tricuspidata (CTE) suppressed receptor activator of NF-${\kappa}B$ ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclastogenesis, actin ring formation in RAW 264.7 cell lines. CTE significantly inhibited the JNK/mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway without affecting ERK and p38 signaling in RANKL-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. Also, CTE inhibited RANKL-induced expression of c-Fos, an upstream activator of NFATc1. Consequently, CTE suppresses osteoclast differentiation by inhibiting RANKL induced MAPK signaling pathways and disrupts the actin rings in mature osteoclasts. Thus, CTE can be used for the development of osteoporosis treatment drug with a natural material.

  • We performed comprehensive SNP validation and linkage disequilibrium (LD) analysis of the c-fos induced growth factor (Figf) gene in Korean population. Out of 32 SNPs, only 9 SNPs were polymorphic in Korean population. Validated SNPs formed a single extended haplotype block with strong LD through the entire length of the gene. Tagging SNP analysis picked only 2 SNPs to represent most of the genetic variation information of the Figf gene. Our results demonstrate the utility of LD block and tagging SNP analysis for an efficient way of performing a candidate gene based association study.
