사체 피부에서 면역반응을 일으킬 수 있는 세포들을 제거한 무세포 진피는 다양한 의료용 소재로 사용되고 있다. Trin-butyl phospahate(TnBP)와 deoxycholic acids를 세포제거 용액으로 사용하여 피부조직 내 진피층의 3차원적 구조를 손상시키지 않고 다양한 구조 단백질 및 성분들을 유지한 상태에서 면역반응의 대상인 세포성 항원만을 선별적으로 제거한 이식용 동종 무세포 진피인 $SureDerm^{TM}$을 개발하였다. $SureDerm^{TM}$ 제조공정은 감염성 위해인자 불활화 공정으로 70% 에탄올 처리와 산화에틸렌 가스 처리 공정을 포함하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 SureDermTM 제조공정 중 70% 에탄올 소독 공정, 세포제거용액(0.1% TnBP와 2% deoxycholic acids) 처리 공정, 산화에틸렌 가스 멸균의 바이러스 불활화 효과를 검증하기 위해 국제적 가이드에 따라 5종의 바이러스 [human immunodeficiency virus type 1(HIV-1), bovine herpes virus(BHV), Bovine viral diarrhoea virus(BVDV), hepatitis A virus(HAV), porcine parvovirus(PPV)]를 생물학적 지표로 사용하였다. 피부조직에 각 생물학적 지표를 첨가한 후 불활화 공정을 실시한 다음 각 바이러스를 회수하여 정량한 후 불활화 정도를 비교하였다. 70% 에탄올 20분처리 공정에서 HIV-1, BHV, BVDV 같은 외피 바이러스는 처리 시간 2.5분 안에 불활화되었지만, HAV와 PPV 같은 비-외피 바이러스는 에탄올에 저항성을 나타내어 20분 처리 후 log 바이러스 감소인수가 각각 1.85와 1.15였다. 세포제거용액 처리 공정에서 HIV-1, BHV, BVDV는 각각 5분, 30분, 5분 안에 검출한계 이하로 불활화되었다. 산화에틸렌 가스처리에 의해 본 연구에 사용한 모든 바이러스가 검출한계 이하로 불활화되었다. 3가지 공정에서 HIV-1, BHV, BVDV, HAV, PPV에 대한 log 바이러스 감소인수 합은 각각 $\geq12.71$, $\geq18.08$, $\geq14.92$, $\geq6.57$, $\geq7.18$이었다. 이와 같은 결과에서 $SureDerm^{TM}$ 제조공정은 바이러스 안전성을 보증할 수 있는 충분한 바이러스 불활화 능력을 갖고 있는 것으로 판단된다.

In order to study functional nucleotides in prototype foamy virus (PFV) DNA on specific recognition by PFV integrase (IN), we designed chimeric U5 long terminal repeat (LTR) DNA substrates by exchanging comparative sequences between human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) and PFV U5 LTRs, and investigated the 3'-end processing reactivity using HIV-1 and PFV INs, respectively. HIV-1 IN recognized the nucleotides present in the fifth and sixth positions at the 3'-end of the substrates more specifically than any other nucleotides in the viral DNA. However, PFV IN recognized the eighth and ninth nucleotides as distinctively as the fifth and sixth nucleotides in the reactions. In addition, none of the nucleotides present in the twelfth, sixteenth, seventeenth, eighteenth, nineteenth, and twentieth positions were not differentially recognized by HIV-1 and PFV INs, respectively. Therefore, our results suggest that the functional nucleotides that are specifically recognized by its own IN in the PFV U5 LTR are different from those in the HIV-1 U5 LTR in aspects of the positions and nucleotide sequences. Furthermore, it is proposed that the functional nucleotides related to the specific recognition by retroviral INs are present inside ten nucleotides from the 3'-end of the U5 LTR.

Some Korean plants were found to inhibit HIV-1 protease activity. The extracts of Acanthopanax koreanum (stem bark), Berchemia berchemiaefolia (stem), Berchemia berchemiaefolia (bark), Distylium racemosum (leaves), Distylium racemosum (stem), Lindera erythrocarpa (leaves), Physalis alkekengi var. francheti (root), Platycarya strobilacea (stem), Rodiola rosea (root), Rosa davurica (stem), Syringa dilatata (leaves), Viburnum awabuki (stem) and Viburnum awabuki (leaves) showed significant inhibitory effect against HIV-1 protease. Camelliatannin H from Camellia japonica and uvaol from Cratagus pinatrifida were potent active inhibitors of HIV-1 protease with $IC_{50}$ values of $0.9\;{\mu}M$ and $5.5\;{\mu}M$, respectively. The cure and prevention of AIDS have been a global challenge since it was discovered in the ealy 1980s. However, the development of anti-HIV agent that can effectively treat or prevent this disease are still demanded.

Baicalein and baicalin are flavonoid compounds isolated from medicinal herb Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi (Labiatae) and have been known to possess antiviral activities. In the present study, we investigated the in vitro effects of baicalein and baicalin on the three distinctive enzymatic activities of the human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) integrase-endonucleolytic, integration, and disintegration activities. Both compounds inhibited the three enzymatic activities in a dose-dependent manner. The 50％ inhibitory concentrations of baicalein and baicalin for endonucleolytic activities of HIV-1 integrase were 4.4$\pm$3.3 and 25.9$\pm$4.0$\mu$M, respectively. In general, baicalein exhibited nearly 6- to 10-fold stronger inhibition than baicalin for the three enzymatic activities. These data demonstrate that baicalein or baicalin can be used as a leading compound to develop anti-AIDS chemotherapeutic agents targeting to the HIV-1 integrase.

Human immunodeficiency virus type (HIV-1 )은 복사에 필수적인 전사촉진단질유전자인 tat를 가지고 있다. 우리는 유전자 재조합기법을 사용하여 tat 유전자와 nef 유전자가 결핍된 HIV-1을 제조하였다. nef, tat-결핍 HIV-1 은 C $D_4$$^{+T}$ 세포에서 전혀 복제를 하지 못하였다. 반면, tat 단백질을 발현하도록 만들어진 재조합 Jurkat-tat세포에서는 복제능력을 다시 회복함을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 nef, tat-결핍 바이러스를 Jurkat-tat 세포에서 두달이상 계대배양했을 때, revertant가 전혀 생기지 않았다. 또한, nef, tat- 결핍 HIV-1 에 chloramphenicol acetyltransferase 유전자를 삽입시키고, 이의 발현정도를 측정함으로써 원형바이러스와 마찬가지로 민감하면서도 안전하고 편리하게 바이러스의 복제를 측정할 수 있었다. nef, tat- 결핍 바이러스는 항 HIV-1 제의 활성도를 측정하고자할 때 원형 바이러스의 대용으로 안전하게 사용될 수 있을것이다.다.

Anti-human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) type I protease (PR) and anti-lipid peroxidation effects on Rosa davurica were investigated. Of the various parts tested from R. davurica, the water extracts of stem and leaves inhibited the HIV-1 PR activity by more than 45% at a concentration of $100\;{mu}g/mL$. Hyperoside from the percarp of title plant showed 25% inhibition on HIV-1 PR at $200\;{mu}M$. The methanol extract of the root of R. davurica reduced the level of lipid peroxides induced by bromobenzene in vivo.

Three naphthalene glycosides (1-3), four flavonoids (4-7), and two galloyl glycosides (8-9) were isolated from the stem-bark of Juglans mandshurica (Juglandaceae). Their structures were determined by chemical and spectral means, including to 2D-NMR (COSY, HMQC, and HMBC) experiments. Amongst the isolated compounds, taxifolin (4) showed the most potent HIV-induced cytopethic activity against MT-4 cells with complete inhibitory concentration ($IC_{100}$) value of $25{\;}{\mu\textrm{g}}/ml$ and maximum cytotoxic concentration ($CC_{100}$) value of above $100{\;}{\mu\textrm{g}}/ml$. However, naphthalene glycosides (1-3), flavonoids (5-7)), and galloyl tannins (8-9) were inactive against anti-HIV-1 activity.

Medicinal plants were screened for the inhibitory effects on human immunodeficiency virus type 1 pretense. Of the extracts tested, the strong inhibitory effects were observed in the acetone extracts of the pericarp of Camellia japonica. Camelliatannin H from the pericarp of C. japonica showed a potent inhibitory activity on HIV-1 pretense. Effects of the extract and compound from leaves of Zanthoxylum piperitum on the enzyme activities were investigated in the liver of bromobenzene-treated rats. The methanol extract and protocatechuic acid isolated from Z. pipetitum reduced the activity of aniline hydroxylase that increased by bromobenzene, while did not affect the activities of aminopyrin N-demethylase and glutathione S-transferase. The extract and protocatechuic acid recovered significantly the activity of epoxide hydrolase decreased by bromobenzene.

Presence of antibody to the capsid protein p24 is the main diagnostic criterion, since this reflects reliable antibody response to HIV infection. However, it takes about 6-8 weeks for antibody production after infection and people who are infected but antibodies are not produced yet are classified as seronegative. Therefore, there is a strong need for an improved diagnostic method for better health security. As a first step for developing such an improved diagnostic system, gag protein of human immunodificiency virus type 1 was expressed in E. coli DH5$\alpha$. The gag fragment of HIV-1 (including a portion of p17 and whole p24) was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and BamH I/EcoR I sites were created during PCR. The amplified DNA fragment was cleaved with BamH I/EcoR I and was subcloned into the GEX-2T vector which had been digested with BamHI/EcoRI, resulting gene fusion with gst gene of pGEX-2T. The recombinant DNA was transferred into E. coli DH5$\alpha$. The transformed bacteria were grown at 37$^{\circ}C$ for 3h and protein expression was induced with 0.1mM IPTG at $25^{\circ}C$ for 3h. Recombinant gag protein or GST-gag fusion protein was purified with glutathione-sepharose 4B bead and migrated as a single band when analyzed by 10% polyacrylamide gel. These proteins were confirmed by immunoblotting with anti-GST goat sera or Korean AIDS patients sera. The results of this study establish the expression and single step pulification of HIV-1 gag protein which can specifically bind with Korean AIDS patients sera.
