하수관거시스템 개량의 주된 목적은 불명수(Inflow/Infiltration, I/I)를 제거함으로써 그 성능을 향상시키는데 있다. 이때 전체 하수관거시스템 내에서 개개 관거별 I/I 발생량을 정량화할 수 있다면, 전체 하수관거시스템 내에서 소유역별 해당 정보의 추출이 보다 명확해질 수 있다. 그러나 실제 현장에서는 예산 및 시간의 제약 때문에 개개 관거의 I/I 발생 정보의 획득은 거의 불가능하다. 본 연구에서는 하수 관거별 I/I 발생량을 AHP(Analytic Hierarch Process)를 이용하여 정량화하였으며, 산정된 관거별 I/I 발생량을 이용하여 효율적인 하수과거 개량 사업 시행을 위한 개량 우선순위 결정 모형(Rehabiliation Priority Decision Model for sewer system, RPDM)을 개발하였다. 개개 관거별 I/I 발생량 산정 결과에 기반하여 RPDM은 개량이 시행되는 기간 동안 발생하는 I/I 발생량을 최소화하는 소유역별 최적 개량 우선순위(Optimal Rehabilitation Priority, ORP)를 유전자 알고리즘을 이용하여 결정한다. 이때 최적 개량 우선순위에 따른 소유역별 개량 시행 시 발생하는 이익은 개량 기간 동안 하수처리장으로 들어가는 I/I의 하수처리비용(Waste Water Treatment Cost, WWTC)에 대한 절감을 의미한다. 본 연구에서는 개발된 RPDM에 의한 최적 개량 우선순위의 결과는 일반적인 하수관거 개량사업의 우선순위 결정 방법인 점수가중평가법(Numerical Weighting Method, NWM)과 최악의 개량순서에 따른 결과들과 비교되었으며, 개량 기간 동안의 I/I 처리비용이 점수가중평가법에 비하여 22%, 최악의 개량순서에 비하여 40% 감소하는 것으로 나타났다.

A meta-analysis incorporating 34 case-control studies from 19 articles involving 12,197 cases and 13,488 controls was conducted to assess the effects of three genetic variants of Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9): rs187084, rs352140, and rs5743836. Studies on associations between TLR9 polymorphisms and cancer risk were systematically searched in electronic databases. The reported odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were pooled to assess the strength of any associations. The results showed that the rs187084 polymorphism was significantly associated with an increased risk of cancer (CC vs TC+TT: OR=1.14, 95% CI=1.02-1.28), specifically cervical cancer (C vs T: OR=1.19, 95% CI=1.05-1.34; TC vs TT: OR=1.32, 95% CI=1.10-1.58; CC vs TT: OR=1.31, 95% CI=1.03-1.68; CC+TC vs TT: OR=1.32, 95% CI=1.11-1.56), and that this association was significantly positive in Caucasians (CC vs. TC+TT: OR=1.18, 95% CI=1.01-1.38). The rs352140 polymorphism had a protective effect on breast cancer (GA vs GG: OR=0.77, 95% CI=0.66-0.89), whereas the rs5743836 polymorphism was likely protective for digestive system cancers (CC+TC vs TT: OR=0.81, 95% CI=0.66-0.98). In conclusion, our results suggest that the rs187084 polymorphism may be associated with an elevated cancer risk, whereas polymorphisms of rs352140 and rs5743836 may play protective roles in the development of breast and digestive system cancers, respectively. From the results of this meta-analysis further large-scale case-control studies are warranted to verify associations between TLR9 polymorphisms and cancer.

The ptsH and ptsI genes of Lactococus lactis subsp. lactis ATCC 7962 (L. lactis 7962), encoding the general proteins of phosphotransferase system (PTS) components, HPr and enzyme I, respectively, were cloned and characterized. A 1.3 kb PCR product was obtained using a primer set that was hybridized to the internal region of the L. lactis 7962 pts HI genes and then subcloned into a low-copy number vector, pACYC184. The 5' upstream and 3' downstream region from the 1.3 kb fragment were subsequently clone using the chromosome walking method. The complete ptsHI operon was constructed and the nucleotide sequences determined. Two ORFs corresponding to HPr (88 amino acids) and enzyme I (575 amino acids) were located. The ptsHI genes of L. lactis 7962 showed a very high homology (84-90%) with those genes from other Gram-positive bacteria. A primer extension analysis showed that the transcription started at either one of two adjacent bases upstream of the start codon. Using a Northern analysis, two transcripts were detected; the first, a 0.3 kb transcript corresponding to ptsH and the second, a 2 kb transcript corresponding to ptsH and ptsI. The transcription level of ptsH was higher than that of ptsI. The concentration of the ptsH transcript in cells grown on glucose was similar to that in cells grown on lactose, yet higher than that in cells grown on galactose. The ptsI transcript was scarcely detected in cell grown on lactose or galactose. The ptsI transcript was scarcely detected in cells grown on lactose or galactose. The results of a sequence analysis and Northern blot confirmed that the ptsH and ptsI genes of L. lactis 7962 were arranged in an operon like other known ptsHI genes and the expression of the ptsHI genes was regulated at the transcriptional level in response to the carbon source.

Powdery mildew (Podosphaera xanthii) commonly occurs in cultivated fields of melon (Cucumis melo L.). It inflicts a lot of damages. Therefore, breeding resistant lines is essential. Development of a resistant line by integrating resistance gene takes a long time. In addition, break down of developed resistance by generating new virulent fungus strains increases disease susceptibility. This phenomenon was related to races of powdery mildew. Therefore, it is important to develop a DNA marker to genetically analyze race-specific resistance genes of melon powdery mildew to breed resistant lines. To date, a total of 28 races of Podosphaera xanthii have been reported in the literature. In Japan, 10 races have been reported in the Ibaraki region. We developed a system to characterize the races of Podosphaera xanthii and confirmed eight out of those 10 races in the Ibaraki region. In Korea, only one race has been characterized to date. However, some different races were detected. Through genetic analysis of resistant lines and susceptible lines of powdery mildew, resistance genes of race1 (Pm-X, PXB, and Pm-R 1), race N1 (PXA), race 2 (Pm-w and Pm-R 2), race 3 (Pm-X3), and race 5 (Pm-X5 and Pm-R5) were identified in melon. These related genes of race 1, 3, N1, 5, and race 1, 2, 5 were located at linkage group II and V, respectively. In race 1, resistance gene was located in the linkage group XII. In addition, each race-specific marker related to specific resistance gene was developed. Using race information and race selection system obtained in this study, resistant line can be bred to develop resistant cultivar for several areas. Furthermore, this will make it more easily and economically to breed resistant lines by using selected markers.

Pyrrosia lingua which belongs to Polypodiaceae has been used as a traditional medicine for the treatment of urinary system inflammation, urination disorder, and bronchitis. However, there are not enough phytochemical and pharmacological studies of P. lingua up to now. Here in this study, the protective effect of MeOH extract of whole plant of Pyrrosia lingua (MPL) against 2% glucose-induced toxicity was investigated using Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) model system. We found that MPL significantly extended the lifespan of wild-type nematode under normal culture condition. MPL also effectively recovered the decreased lifespan caused by 2% glucose-toxicity. In addition, MPL efficiently attenuated the increased glucose concentration inside of nematode. Further studies evaluating diabetes-related factors revealed that MPL reduced both intracellular ROS and lipid accumulation which were up-regulated under 2% glucose supplement condition. Our data also showed that MPL improved the 2% glucose-induced shortened body movement of nematode. Lastly, we carried out genetic studies using several single gene knockout mutants to establish the possible target of MPL. Our results demonstrated that genes such as daf-2 and daf-16 were responsible for the protective activity of MPL against 2% glucose-induced toxicity. These results indicate that MPL exerts protective action against 2% glucose via regulation of insulin/IGF-1 sinaling pathway and FOXO activation.

The purpose of study to phenomenological examine and the mechanism regarding the gene(DNA, RNA, Protein) and sports to studied, analyzed. and evaluated. This review considers the evidence for genetic effects in several determinants of endurance performance and resistance performance, namely: body measurements and physique, body fat pulmonary functions, cardiac and circulatory functions, muscle characteristics. substrate utilization, maximal aerobic power and other. Moreover, the response to aerobic training of indicators aerobic work metabolism and endurance performance is reviewed, with emphasis on the specificity of the response and the individual differences observed in training ability. This study indicate that improvement of 'Enhancer Action' in RNA genes changed by exercise or sports. Moreover exercise was effect on Central Dogma with DNA makes RNA makes Protein. and think that occurred with exercise influence on skeletal muscle into cell have to Myosin Heavy Chain (MHC) changed was after exercise performance, which accompanied into skeletal muscle that were exercise-induces gene-modulation that is, take gene mutations. This study known that existed hormone(epinephrine)-immune system with interaction. Exercise were altered insulin binding and MAP Kinase signaling increased into immune cells. This review suggested that the high rate of glutamine utilization by cells of the immune system serves to maintain a high intra cellular concentration of the intermediates of biosynthetic pathways such that optimal rates of DNA, RNA and protein synthesis can be maintained. In the absence of glutamine, lymphocytes do not proliferate in vitro: proliferation increase greatly as the glutamine concentration increase. Glutamine is synthesized in skeletal muscle. Skeletal muscle and plasma glutamine levels are lowered by sepsis, injury, bums, surgery and endurance exercise and in the overtrained athlete. The study of result show that production of ET-1 is markedly increased tissue specifically in the heart by exercise without appreciable changes in endothelin-converting enzyme and endothelial receptor expressions, suggest that myocardial ET-1 may participate in modulation of cardiac function during exercise. Conclusionally, this study indicate that improvement of 'Enhancer Action' in RNA genes changed by exercise or sports. Moreover exercise was effect on Central Dogma with DNA makes RNA makes Protein. This study is expected to contribute the area of sports science, medicine, hereafter more effort is required to establish the relation between gene alters and exercise amount.

전남 해남 화원일대의 석영맥들은 선캄브리아기의 변성퇴적암류와 쥬라기의 화강암 내에 발달된 단층대를 충진한 천열수성 석영맥이다. 이들 석영맥의 광화작용은 hypogene 시기와 supergene 시기로 구분된다. Hypogene 시기의 광물은 석영, 방해석, 녹염석, 녹니석, 일라이트, 견운모로서 프로필라이트대와 점토대로 구성되며 석영맥에서 산출되는 황화광물은 황철석, 섬아연석, 황동석, 방연석, 반동석, 규버나이트, 함은사면동석, Pb-Ag-S계 광물 및 Pb-Te-S계 광물 등이 관찰된다. Supergene 시기에는 Fe-Mn 산화물, Zn-Fe 산화물 및 Pb 산화물 등이 생성되었다. 유체포유물 자료에 의하면, hypogene 시기의 균일화온도와 염농도는 각각 $291.2{\sim}397.3^{\circ}C,\;0.0{\sim}9.3\;wt.%$ 범위를 보이며, 광화유체는 일부 비등과 기원이 다른 천수와의 혼입에 의해 냉각 및 희석작용을 겪었다. 산소($-0.7{\sim}3.5%_{\circ}$(백색석영 $-0.7{\sim}3.5%_{\circ}$, 투명석영 $2.4%_{\circ}$)), 수소($-7.0{\sim}55%_{\circ}$(백색석영$-7.0{\sim}55%_{\circ}$, 투명석영: $-62%_{\circ}$))동위원소 값 자료로 볼 때, 이 석영맥의 광화유체는 마그마 기원의 유체가 광화작용이 진행됨에 따라 천수의 혼입이 작용한 것으로 해석할 수 있다.
