Recentadvancesin '-omics ' technologies enable us to discover more diverse disease- relevant target proteins, which encourages us to find out more target-specific novel lead compounds as new drug candidates. Therefore, high-throughput screening (HTS) becomes an essential tool in this area. Among many HTS tools, in silico HTS is a very fast and cost-effective tool to try to derive a new lead compound for any new targets, especially when the target protein structures are known or readily modeled.

Quantitative high throughput screening (qHTS) assays are used to assess toxicity for many chemicals in a short period by collectively analyzing them at several concentrations. Data are routinely analyzed using nonlinear regression models; however, we propose a new method to analyze qHTS data using a nonlinear mixed effects model. qHTS data are generated by repeating the same experiment several times for each chemical; therefor, they can be viewed as if they are repeated measures data and hence analyzed using a nonlinear mixed effects model which accounts for both intra- and inter-individual variabilities. Furthermore, we apply a one-step approach incorporating robust estimation methods to estimate fixed effect parameters and the variance-covariance structure since outliers or influential observations are not uncommon in qHTS data. The toxicity of chemicals from a qHTS assay is classified based on the significance of a parameter related to the efficacy of the chemicals using the proposed method. We evaluate the performance of the proposed method in terms of power and false discovery rate using simulation studies comparing with one existing method. The proposed method is illustrated using a dataset obtained from the National Toxicology Program.

분지아미노산 생합성 과정에 관여하는 첫 번째 효소인 acetolactate synthase (ALS)를 대상으로 수행할 수 있도록 고효율 검색방법(High Throughput Screening, HTS)을 개발하였고, 이를 이용하여 식물특이적 효소 저해제로 알려진 107개의 기존 화합물 중에서 새로운 ALS 저해 화합물을 선발하였다. 기존의 방법과 비교할 경우 한사람이 1회 수행한다고 하면 8 배 효율이지만 연속적으로 수행한다고 할 경우 1/10 이하의 양, 동일한 재료의 적용, 측정 결과의 계산, enzyme kinetics 등을 감안하면 최소 100 배 이상의 효과를 얻을 수 있다. 새로운 ALS 저해제로 탐색된 화학물질은, ammooxyacetic acid, azelaic acid, citric acid, cyanuric fluoride, glyoxylic acid, itaconic acid, malonic acid, niclosamid, oxalic acid, 2-oxoglutaric acid, suramin 등이었다. 앞으로 이들을 기본 구조로 하여 신규 ALS 저해 제초제의 개발을 위한 유도체의 합성에 이용되었으면 한다.

DAPI 염색을 이용하여 세포사멸 유도물질의 초고속스크리닝에 적합한 protocol을 제작하였다. Liquid handler에서 dispensing과 multilabel counter에서의 상대적인 fluorescent intensity를 측정하는 과정을 자동화한 protocol을 제작하였고, 이의 과정은 매우 효율적으로 가동되었음을 확인하였다. DAPI에 binding된 DNA의 intensity를 측정하는 조건검토에서 가장자리의 36개를 reading하지 않는 것이 edge effect를 줄일수 있는 것을 확인하였고, 0.1 sec reading으로 시간을 절약할 수 있었다. 이의 결과를 효과적으로 이용할 경우, 세포사멸 유도물질의 초고속스크리닝 또는 이에 적합한 스크리닝이 가능함을 확인하였다.

As a rapid and quick bioactive compound evaluation technique, we utilized an automatic system of high throughput screening (HTS) to investigate ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitory efficacy of seaweeds, collected from Jeju Island in Korea. In this study, different extracts with methanol at $20^{\circ}C$ and $70^{\circ}C$ from 23 species of brown seaweeds and 22 species of red seaweeds and 9 species of green seaweeds were subjected to HTS. Of the brown seaweeds tested, Myelophycus simplex (20B3), Ishige sinicola (20B5, 70B5), Colpomenia sinuosa, (20B14, 70B14), Hizikia fusiforme (20B21), Ishige okamurai (70B22) and Ecklonia cava (70B23) showed significantly high ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitory activity with 96.52%, 98.34%, 98.37%, 80.49%, 96.16%, 76.32%, 98.32% and 98.12%. Schizymenia dubyi (20R15), Gelidium amansii (20R16) and Polysiphonia japonica (70R22) amomng the red seaweeds showed remarkable ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitory activity more than 95%. On the other hand, the green seaweeds showed poor ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitory activities (less the10%) at 1 mg/ml.

A FRET-based high-throughput screening system was developed for the discovery of competitive smallmolecule Hsp90 inhibitors. The biarsenical fluorescein derivative FlAsH and dabcyl-conjugated Hsp90 inhibitor GM were employed as the FRET donor and quencher, respectively. The spatial proximity perturbation between FlAsH-labeled Hsp90N and GM-dabcyl upon treatment of a small molecule led to changes in the FRET-induced fluorescence, monitored in a high-throughput fashion.

Metabolomics which deals with the biological metabolite profile produced in the body and its relation to disease state is a relatively recent research area for drug discovery and biological sciences including toxicology and pharmacology. Metabolomics, based on analytical method and multivariate analysis, has been considered a promising technology because of its advantage over other toxicogenomic and toxicoproteomic approaches. The application of metabolomics includes the development of biomarkers associated with the pathogenesis of various diseases, alternative toxicity tests, high-throughput screening (HTS), and risk assessment, allowing the simultaneous acquisition of multiple biochemical parameters in biological samples. The metabolic profile of urine, in particular, often shows changes in response to exposure to xenobiotics or disease-induced stress, because of the biological system's attempt to maintain homeostasis. In this review, we focus on the most recent advances and applications of metabolomics in toxicological research.

Advances in the fields of proteomics and genomics have necessitated the development of high-throughput screening methods (HTS) for the systematic transformation of large amounts of biological/chemical data into an organized database of knowledge. Microfluidic systems are ideally suited for high-throughput biochemical experimentation since they offer high analytical throughput, consume minute quantities of expensive biological reagents, exhibit superior sensitivity and functionality compared to traditional micro-array techniques and can be integrated within complex experimental work flows. A range of basic biochemical and molecular biological operations have been transferred to chip-based microfluidic formats over the last decade, including gene sequencing, emulsion PCR, immunoassays, electrophoresis, cell-based assays, expression cloning and macromolecule blotting. In this review, we highlight some of the recent advances in the application of microfluidics to biochemistry and molecular biology.

본 연구는 제주산 해조류의 생리활성을 대량검색하기 위해 HTS 기법을 이용한 실험과정의 제어 및 관리를 위한 자동화 시스템을 구축하고자 DPPH 라디칼을 이용하여 HTS를 이용한 자동화 시스템을 구축하고 제주산 해조류의 DPPH 라디칼 소거활성을 대량 검색하고자 하였다. 그 결과 HTS를 위한 효율적인 검색방법을 개발하였고 DPPH 라디칼 소거활성이 높은 해조류를 검색하게 되었다. 녹조류의 경우 납작파래 (20G6)의 $20^{\circ}C$ 추출물(1 mg/ml)에서 약 60%이 DPPH 라디칼 소거활성을 보였을 뿐 나머지 해조류에서는 40% 미만이 낮은 활성만을 보였다. 갈조류의 경우 꽈배기 모자반 (20B17), (70B17), 참그물바탕말 (70B1), 큰잎모자반 (70B16)과 감태 (70B26)에서 DPPH 라디칼 소거활성이 우수하였다. 홍조류 중에서는 왜떨기나무붉은실 (20R24)에서 가장 우수한 DPPH 라디칼 소거활성을 나타내었고 갈래잎 (20R17), 굵은참우뭇가사리 (20R18), 부채분홍잎 (20R23) 또한 높은 소거활성을 보였다. 따라서 우수한 효과를 나타내었던 해조류를 대상으로 용매분획 및 활성물질의 분리, 정제를 통해 해조류 유래의 기능성 신소재를 개발한다면, 해조류의 고부가가치화 및 HTS기술의 보편화에 큰 영향을 미칠 것으로 판단된다.
