This study was attempted to see more clear relationships among the enterobacteria, especially between the intestinal normal flora and pathogenic bacteria. It has been known that some intestinal normal flora produce the bactrial metabolites that are harmful to other enteric bacteria. One of the metabolites is known as colicin, the protein fraction, which possesses certain degree of inhibitory effect against other bacterial growth fraction, whih possesses certain degree of inhibitory effect against other bacterial growth. As a preliminary study for a colicin purification, the antagonistic effect of E, coli to groups of Salmonella and Shigella has been studied by means of in vitro quantitative culture method. 1. E.coli showed definite inhibitory effects aganist both Salmonella and Shigella groups in the mixture of two organisms. 2. The inhibitory effects of E.coli in the E.coli-Salmonella and the E.coli-Shigella mixture occurred from 4 hours incubation following the inoculation. 3. Even the complete inhibition of pathogenic enteric bacterial growth was noticed in the E.coli-Salmonella mixture at overnight incubation. 4. Among the diluted mixtures, 1:100, 1:1,000, and 1:10,000, survival rate of pathogenic enteric bacteria in the mixtures with E.coli showed least affected at the 1:1,000 dilution. 5. It was found that the antagonistic effect aganist groups of Salmonella-shigella was depending upon the groups of the genera.

The screening of the anti-cancer activity of the chemical library provided 2-thio-4-aminopyrimidine as the initial hit. The confirmation of structure and biological effect of hit was performed by synthesis and biological evaluation. The optimization of hit was performed by derivatization of substituents while keeping the core structure. The evaluation of growth inhibitory activity was carried out using SRB assay against 6 human cancer cell lines and human fibroblast. The growth inhibitory activity of compounds showed substituent dependency and more than 5 compounds showed complete growth inhibition of cancer cell lines at 10 ${\mu}M$ concentration. Chemical library screening followed by synthetic modification provided possibility that 2-thio-4-aminopyrimidine can be used as a new scaffold for the development of anti-cancer agent.

Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) is a group of positional and geometric isomers of linoleic acid (LA) and exhibits anticarcinogenic activity in a variety of animal models. We have previously observed that CLA inhibited the growth of Caco-2 cells, a human colon adenocarcinoma cell line. The present study was performed to determine whether the growth inhibitory effect of CLA is related to change in secretion of IGF- II and/or IGF-binding proteins (IGFBPs) that have been shown to regulate Caco-2 cell proliferation by an autocrine mechanism. Cells were incubated in serum-free medium with various concentrations of CLA or linoleic acid (LA). Immunoblot analysis of 24-hours, serum-free, conditioned medium using a monoclonal anti-IGF-IIantibody revealed that Caco-2 cells secreted both mature 6,500 Mr and higher Mr forms of pro IGF-II. The levels of pro IGF-II and mature IGF-IIwere decreased by 43 $\pm$ 2% and 53 $\pm$ 6%, respectively by treatment with 50 $\mu$ M CLA. LA slightly increased pro IGF- II levels. Results from Northern blot analysis showed that CLA decreased IGF-II mRNA levels at 50 $\mu$ M concentration suggesting that CLA regulation of IGF-II protein expression occurs partly at the transcriptional level. Ligand blot analysis of conditioned media using 1251-IGF-II revealed that CLA slightly decreased IGFBP-2 levels and increased IGFBP-4 levels. We confirmed our previous results that CLA inhibited cell growth in a dose-dependent manner but LA slightly increased cell growth. Exogenous IGF-II mitigated the growth inhibitory effect of CLA. These results indicate that the growth inhibitory effect of CLA may be at least in part mediated by decreasing IGF-II and IGFBP-2 secretion and increasing IGFBP-4 secretion in Caco-2 cells.

The growth inhibitory effect of germanium, or soybean sprouts cultured with germanium, on cancer cells was determined in the cultured gastric cancer cell line, AGS. The growth of AGS was significantly inhibited by the addition of 0.01-1％ organic germanium (Ge-132) and germanium stone powder in MTT cytotoxicity assays. The juice from germanium treated soybean sprouts (GTS) inhibited the growth of AGS gastric cancer cells by 78-88％ at concentrations of 2.5 or 5${\mu}\ell$. The juice from Seomoktae GTS revealed an especially higher growth inhibitory effect than that from the control soybean sprouts (germanium non-treated soybean sprouts, GNTS) in AGS. The results suggest that soybean sprouts cultured with germanium may exert an anticancer effect against gastric cancer cells.

본 연구에서는 참외 추출물의 항암활성에 대해 알아보기 위해 참외를 부위별로 나누어 quinone reductase 유도활성과 다양한 간암세포에서의 증식 억제활성을 조사하였다. 참외 꼭지와 참외 줄기 잎 부위에서 농도의존적으로 QR 유도활성이 증가하였고, $200{\mu}g/mL$ 농도에서는 각각 3.9, 1.5배의 유도활성을 나타내었다. 암세포 사멸 활성 측정법을 통한 항암활성 평가 실험에서 마우스 유래의 간암세포인 Hepa1c1c7 세포에 대해서 조사한 결과 꼭지와 줄기 잎 부위에서 높은 암세포 독성을 보였다. 이러한 결과를 기초로 인체유래의 암세포에 대한 항암활성을 평가하기 위해 인체유래 간암 세포주인 HepG2에 대한 세포 증식 억제활성을 농도별로 조사하였다. 꼭지와 줄기 잎 부위 모두 인체유래 간암 세포에 대해 증식 억제효과를 보여주었지만, 특히 꼭지 부위는 최고농도에서 60.3%의 높은 증식 억제효과를 보였다. 그러나 마우스 유래의 간암세포에 대한 활성보다 인체유래 간암세포에 대한 활성이 낮게 나타났다. 참외의 꼭지 추출물에서 QR 유도활성과 항암활성을 확인함으로써 향후 참외 비가식 부위의 기능성 소재로의 이용화에 대한 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

The growth inhibitory effect of wheat grain, fermented wheat grain products, red pepper powder and kochujang was examined in AGS human gastric adenocarcinoma cells. The kochujang samples were prepared by mixing red pepper powder and each fermented wheat grain products, such as first fermented wheat grain (FFWG), second fermented wheat grain (SFWG) and final fermented wheat grain (FiFWG). The methanol extract of FiFWG showed the highest growth inhibitory effects. In order to investigate the effects of fermented wheat grain products at each stage of fermentation on anticancer activity, the kochujang prepared with red pepper powder and each of FFWG, SFWG and FiFWG were fermented until reaching pH 5.1. The kochujang adjusted to pH 5.1 by fermentation increased the growth inhibitory effect; however, the kochujang prepared with FiFWG showed the highest effect. Increased fermentation time increased the growth inhibitory effect of kochujang when prepared with FiFWG. These results suggested that the anticancer effect of the kochujang on the gastric cancer cells was affected by the fermentation periods of the wheat grains. The well-fermented end products of the wheat grains seem to be one of the major components that showed anticancer activity of kochujang.

An endophytic bacterial strain, Arthrobacter humicola YC6002, was isolated from a surface sterilized root of Korean turf grass (Zoysia japonica) collected from Jinju, Korea. This strain showed inhibitory effect on germination and shoot growth of radish. The inhibition of germination and shoot growth of radish seeds varied depending on the age of culture and the temperature at which it was incubated. The culture filtrate of 1/10-strength Tryptic Soy Broth medium, incubated for 48 hours at $30^{\circ}C$, showed the highest inhibitory effect on radish seed germination and shoot growth (92% inhibition as compared to control). The active compound with seed germination and shoot growth inhibition was purified and identified as 3-phenylpropionic acid. The purified compound had 53% and 93% inhibitory effect on seed germination and shoot growth of radish for 500 and 1000 ppm solutions, respectively.

The inhibitory effect of pooled canine serum on the growth of ten strains of Malassezia pachydermatis in vitro was investigated. Studies were also carried out to observe the effect of different concentrations of unsaturated bovine transferrin on Malassezia growth in vitro. Ten strains of Malassezia pachygedrmatis in normal canine serum (11.1%, 44.4%) were found to significantly inhibit the growth (p<0.0005) not only in a dose dependent but also in a time dependent manner. The same strains of yeast treated with 1, 2, 4 and 8 times the normal value of serum transferrin (3.0 mg/ml, 6.0 mg/ml, 12.0 mg/ml, 24.0 mg/fl), were shown to have significantly lower OD readings (p<0.05) when compared to yeast treated in lower concentrations of transferrin (1.5 mg/ml). The optical density (OD) of the ten strains of yeast were significantly lower (p<0.005) when treated with various concentrations of transferrin than with the saline control except at 72 hours post incubation. These results indicate that serum has inhibitory effects on Malassezia pachydermatis growth in vitro, and transfferin is one of the components that contribute towards this inhibitory role. The inhibitions are dose and time dependent.

To evaluate the diagnostic significance of p16 overexpression in human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), we analyzed p16 status and growth inhibitory patterns by p16 overexpression in HCC cell lines having different pRE status. SKHep1 and SNU449 cells show homozygous deletion of p16. The p16 gene in SNU398 cell is inactivated at posttranscription level. Adenovira1-p16 (Ad-p16) infection inhibits the cell growth in Hep3B, SNU398, and SNU449. Failure of growth inhibition in SKHepl results from the low transduction efficiency of adenovirus. The p16-mediated growth inhibition shows G 1 phase arrest in pRE-positive SNU449 but not in pRE-negative Hep3B. These results suggest that therapeutic efficacy of p16 gene might be considered on the transduction efficiency and the toxicity of adenoviral vector. Beside, growth inhibitory effect of p16 could be exerted through either pRE-dependent or -independent pathway.
