Lignosus rhinocerus is a macrofungus that belongs to Polyporaceae and is native to tropical regions. This highly priced mushroom has been used as folk medicine to treat diseases by indigenous people. As a preliminary study to develop a culture method for edible mushrooms, the cultural characteristics of L. rhinocerus were investigated in a range of culture media under different environmental conditions. Mycelial growth of this mushroom was compared on culture media composed of various carbon and nitrogen sources in addition to C/N ratios. The optimal conditions for mycelial growth were $30^{\circ}C$ at pH 6 and 7. Rapid mycelial growth of L. rhinocerus was observed on glucose-peptone and yeast extract peptone dextrose media. Carbon and nitrogen sources promoting mycelial growth of L. rhinocerus were glucose and potassium nitrate, respectively. The optimum C/N ratio was approximately 10 : 1 using 2% glucose supplemented as a carbon source in the basal media.

A metallurgical model for the prediction of prior austenite grain size considering the dissolution kinetics of M$_3$C precipitates at the heat affected zone of SA508-cl.3 was proposed. The isothermal kinetics of grain growth and dissolution were respectively described by well-known equation, $dD/dT=M({\Delta}F_{eff})^M$ and Whelan's analytical model. The isothermal grain growth experiments were carried out for measure the kinetic parameters of grain growth. The precipitates of the base metal and the specimens exposed to thermal cycle were examined by TEM-carbon extraction replica method. The model was assessed by the comparison of BUE simulation experiments and showed good consistencies. However, there was no difference between the model considering and ignoring $M_3C$ precipitates. It seems considered that pinning force exerted by $M_3C$ Precipitates was lower than driving force for grain growth due to large size and small fraction of precipitates, and mobility of grain boundary was low in the lower temperature range.

During May of 2003, smoke from fires in the Yucatan Peninsula was transported across the Gulf of Mexico and into Texas where it caused significant enhancement in measured aerosol concentrations and reduced visibility. During this event, the formation and growth of aerosol particles has been observed by a differential mobility analyzer (DMA) / tandem differential mobility analyzer (TDMA) system to characterize the size distribution and size-resolved hygroscopicity of the aerosol. The most number concentration is by the particles smaller than 100 nm, but the integrated number concentrations for over 100 nm increased due to the aerosol growth. Hygroscopic growth factor increase from 1.2 to 1.4 for 25, 50, and 100 nm particles during the nucleating period. This distribution and the aerosol properties derived from the TDMA data were used to calculate the growth rate. Particle growth rates were in the range 1-12 nm/hr.

To investigate the possibility of developing the seeding measure for river bank slope revegetation, germination experiment and early growth observation were conducted using 3 native species growing naturally around river banks such as Pennisetum alopecuroides, Phragmites communis, and Miscanthus sinensis. The applied seeding methods were 3 such as scattering seeds, tillage after scattering seeds, and covering up seed with soil after scattering seeds. According to seeding methods, germination experiment and early growth observation were carried out on nursery bed soil in greenhouse. As results of this study, all the 3 native plant species' germination ratio and growth in length on nursery bed soil were highest on the seeding method of covering up seed with soil. Also it was verified by Duncan's multiple range test that the germination ratio and growth in length on the seeding method of covering up seed with soil is distinguished from those on other two seeding methods. According to this results, the best possible seeding measure to be developed should be mechanical seed spraying with soil.

The growth and maturation pattern of a commercial and endemic red algae Meristotheca papulosa were investigated in Jeju Island. Ecological researches were performed in a natural population of 10 m water depth in Sinheung from march 2014 to November 2015. Maximal blade length and weight of M. papulosa were 8.7 cm and 5.49 g in July 2014 and 10.7 cm and 10.17 g in September 2015, respectively. Growth in blade area of the species reached a maximum of $43.84cm^2$ and $67.41cm^2$ in July 2014 and 2015, respectively. Thalli in the field population were rarely observed from October to December but new recruits were found from January, following year. Carposporophytes were observed from June to September when bottom seawater temperatures were around $20^{\circ}C$. At the study site, seawater temperature was in the range of $14.9-25.7^{\circ}C$. Growth parameters of M. papulosa and relative abundance of carposporophytes showed significant correlation with environmental factors (temperature, salinity, DIN). In this result, we clarified the growth and maturation period of M. palpulosa, and provided effective data on the protection and management of natural populations and basic data for mass culture of the alga.

본 연구에서는 흰깨의 에탄올 추출물이 폐암세포의 성장, 이동, 부착 등에 미치는 영향을 인체유래 폐암 세포주인 H1299 세포를 이용하여 in vitro 수준에서 조사하고, 이러한 흰깨 추출물의 효과를 흰깨의 주요 활성 성분 중 하나인 ${\beta}-sitosterol$의 효과와 비교하고자 하였다. 흰깨 추출물 ($150{\sim}600{\mu}g/mL$)과 ${\beta}-sitosterol$ ($3.125{\sim}25{\mu}M$)은 H1299 세포의 성장을 각각 대조구 대비 51.5~82.6%와 27.5~49.0%로 억제하는 농도 의존적 활성을 나타내었고, 이러한 흰깨 추출물과 ${\beta}-sitosterol$의 세포 성장 억제 활성은 부분적으로 apoptosis 유도 활성에서 기인되는 것으로 생각된다. 흰깨 추출물($150{\sim}600{\mu}g/mL$)은 H1299 세포의 이동과 부착을 억제하는 활성을 나타내지 않은 반면에 ${\beta}-sitosterol$은 $3.125{\sim}25{\mu}M$ 농도에서 세포 이동을 대조구 대비 80.8~86.2%로, $6.25{\sim}25{\mu}M$ 농도에서 세포 부착을 대조구 대비 21.5~37.4%로 각각 억제하는 활성을 나타내었다. 이상의 연구 결과를 종합하여 볼 때 H1299 폐암세포의 성장, 이동, 부착 등을 억제하는 데에는 흰깨의 추출물보다는 단일성분인 ${\beta}-sitosterol$이 더 효과적인 것으로 생각된다. 앞으로 이와 같은 연구 결과가 in vivo 수준에서 재현되는지 여부를 검증하고 관련 기전을 탐색하는 것이 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

여러 가지 수온과 광량 하에서 다시마 포자의 발아, 암배우체의 성장과 성숙, 그리고 어린 포자체의 성장을 조사하였고, 이 결과를 동남해안의 수온과 특성과 결부하여 해석하였다. 수온 $25^{\circ}C$에서 포자들은 전혀 발아하지 않았다. $5\~20^{\circ}C$에서의 발아율은 $70\~86\%$였다. $5\~20^{\circ}C$에서 포자의 발아율은 광량에 따라 달랐다. $150 {\mu}E{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$이하에서 배양한 포자의 발아율은 $70 {\mu}E{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$이하에서 배양한 포자의 발아율에 비해 낮았다. 암배우체는 $20^{\circ}C$에서 영양세포를 가장 많이 형성하였으나, 이 수온에서는 성숙하지 않았다. 수온 $5\~15^{\circ}C$에서는 광량이 증가할수록 영양세포의 생산량이 줄어들었으나, 성숙률은 오히려 높아졌다. 또한 수온이 낮아질수록 성숙률은 높아졌으나, 반면 영양세포의 생산량은 줄어들었다. 어린포자체의 성장에 대한 최적수온은 $10^{\circ}C$였으며, $70 {\mu}E{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$의 광량은 어린 포자체의 성장하기에 충분한 광량으로 판단되었다. 동남해안의 수온특성을 볼 때, 다시마의 지리적 분포를 벗어난 이 지역에서도 7월 이전에 방출된 포자는 배우체를 거쳐 어린 포자체로 발달할 수 있다. 그러나 이러한 조건 속에서도 자연 개체군이 존속할 수 없는 이유는 여름철 높은 수온에 의한 어린 포자체의 사망으로 요약할 수 있다.

Objectives We aimed to identify the effectiveness of photobiomodulation using low level laser therapy (LLLT), light emitting diode (LED) and others on the growth of the length of the growth plate by reviewing literatures. Methods We searched literatures using PubMed, Science Direct, CINAHL, Korea Traditional Knowledge Portal (KTKP), Oriental Medicine Advanced Searching Integrated System (OASIS), China Knowledge Resource Integrated Database (CNKI), Japan Science and Technology Information Aggregator, Electronic (J STAGE), and Japan National Institute of Informatics Scholarly and Academic Information Navigator (CiNii) using the keywords "Growth plate" "Epiphyseal growth" "Epiphyseal plate" and "Laser", "light emitting diode (LED)", "near-infrared light", and "photobiomodulation". Search range included only original article which provided English abstract were selected. The search strategy contained no language limitation. Results A total 556 studies were found. Then, 551 were excluded by scanning titles and abstracts and finally 5 articles were selected. Five articles were RCTs using rodents. Two of the 5 articles used InGaAlP Laser (630-685 nm), and the other 3 articles used GaAlAs Laser (780, 820, and 870 nm) to investigated the effects of LLLT on the growth of the length of the epiphyseal cartilage and the number of chondrocytes and thickness of each zone of the epiphyseal cartilage. Two articles concluded that LLLT had a beneficial effect on the longitudinal growth of the growth plate. In growth of the epiphyseal plate, there were no significant differences in others. Conclusions It is might that LLLT influenced on the growth of epiphyseal plate by positive affect. However, further rigorous RCTs are warranted.

Cannabigerol (1, CBG), methyl 4-[(2E)-3,7-dimethyl-2,6-octad ienyl)oxy]-3-methoxybenzoate (2, DTM), 5-fluorouracil (3, FU) as a reference, and cannabidiol (4, CBD) were tested for their growth inhibitory effects against KB(ATCC NO, OCL 17) cell lines using two different assays, the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazoliumbromide (MTT) assay and the sulforhod-amine B protein (SRB) assay. These compounds showed inhibitory activity in vitro in the micromolar range against KB cell lines. In general, the antitumor activities of these compounds (1, 2, 3 and 4) were dose-dependent over the micromolar concentration range of 1 to 100 M. The comparison of $IC_{50}$ values of these compounds in tumor cell lines showed that their susceptibility to these compounds decreases in the following order: DTM > CBD > 5-FU > CBG by MTT assay and DTM = CBD > 5-FU > CBG by SRB assay. CBG 1, DTM 2, 5-FU 3, and CBD 4 were tested for their cytotoxic effects on NIH 3T3 fibroblasts using two different assays, the MTT assay and SRB assay. These compounds exhibited potent cytotoxic activities in vitro in the micromolar range against NIH 3T3 fibroblasts. In general, the cytotoxic acivities of these compounds (1, 2, 3 and 4) were dose-dependent over the micromolar concentraion range of 1 to 100 M. The comparison of $CD_{50}$ values of these compounds in NIH 3T3 fibroblasts shows that their susceptibility to these compounds in decreases the following order(:) CBD > 5-FU > DTM > CBG by MTT assay, CBD > 5-FU > CBG > DTM by SRB assay. These results suggest that DTM 2 has the most growth-inhibitory activity against KB cell lines.
