After single fraction of 2, 5, 10 Gy irradiation on submandibular gland of 40 male rats, weighing 150gm, respectively, these animal were sacrificed two hours after 0.1㎎/g bromodeoxyuridine (Sigma) peritoneal injection in 1, 3, 7, 15 hours, 1, 3, 7 days after irradiation. And excised submandibular gland were fixed in Carnoy's and Bouin's solution for 2 hours. Paraffin sections were stained with H&E, and PAS for the observation of the change of salivary gland tissue, and with Feulgen for the study of the DNA distribution, and immunohistochemically stained with anti-bromodeoxyuridine (Sanbyo Co.) for detection of DNA synthetic cells in order to study the distribution of DNA synthetic cells of salivary gland tissue and endothelium after irradiation in 5 different sites of 6 slides on X 200 high power field. The results were as followings. 1. In PAS staining 3 days after 5Gy irradiation, decreased mucine secretion of serous cells were found, and 7 days after l0Gy irradiation, decreased mucine secretion of mucous cells were found. 2. In histopathologic features, degeneration of serous cells were found in 3 days after 2 Gy irradiation and there was little change in mucous cells and excretory duct cells. 3. In Feugen staining, 3 days after 2 Gy, 5 Gy irradiation, more high percentage of DNA synthetic cells were found in intercalated duct cells, striated duct cells and excretory duct cells than in BrdU staining. 4. In immunohistochemical features, DNA synethsis of serous cells and granular convoluted tubular cells abruptly decreased in early period after irradiation and showed no recovery in 7 days after irradiation but there was an increase in DNA synthesis of intercalated duct cells, striated duct cells and excretory duct cells, which have less S-phase cells comparatively, in 7 days after 2 Gy, 5 Gy irradiation. 5. In immunohistochemical features, the DNA synthesis of endothelial cells was continuously decreased after irradiation but showed slight increase in 7 days after 2 Gy and S Gy irradiation.

This study was performed to understand the irradiation effects on the mandibular condyle and mandibular growth in developing white rats. Forty eight white male rats of the Sprague-Dawley strain aged 4 weeks, were devided into two groups; control group and experimental group. A single target dose of l0Gy of radiation was given to the mandibular condylar area and the observations of the photo analysis, radiologic, histopathologic and immunohistochemical study revealed as follows; 1. Animals killed one week after irradiation showed lesser increase in body weights, no difference in photo analysis and decreased thickness of cartilagenous layers of the condyle than the control group. 2. Two weeks after irradiation the weight increases were almost same in both irradiated and control groups and in photo analysis, the distance from Mental Foramen to Incisal tip (Mf-It) was longer than the controls. Repair processes were taken place in irradiated group, but the cartilagenous layers were thinner than the controls. 3. By the third week after exposure further repair was seen in the trabeculae and the distance from Condylion to Mandibular plane (Cd-Cd') was longer than the controls and the weight increases were almost same as the controls. 4. At 4 weeks after irradiation the cells of proliferating zone repaired to almost normal findings, but the cartilagenous cell layers were still thinner than the control animals. In photo analysis, the distances from Menton to Anterior Notch (Me-An), from First Molar to Mandibular plane (Fm-Fm') were shorter and the weight increases were lesser than the controls. 5. In the S-100 antibody, the positive cells were increased in number, but decreased reactivities were seen at the proliferating zone of the irradiated groups. In the Monoclonal Anti-Proteoglycan antibody and Type Ⅰ collagen antibody, the irradiated groups showed little decreased number of positive cells and in the Type Ⅱ collagen antibody, the differences between irradiated and control groups were undetectable in immunohistochemical study.

The study was designed to investigate the effects of progesterone and estrogen on the uterus of rats by immunohistochemical methods using Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen (PCNA) antibody. Eighteen female rats(Wistar), weighing initially about 300g, were ovariectomized. These rats were divided into four groups, progesterone-treated group, estrogen-treated group, estrogen+progesterone-treated group, and control group, progesterone-treated group was injected with 1mg of progesterone per rat per day for 2 days and estrogen-treated group with $20{\mu}g$ of $17{\beta}-estradiol$ for 3 days and estrogen+progesterone-treated group with $17{\beta}-estrdiol$ for 3 days and then with progesterone for 2 days as above. In gross findings, the uteri were markedly hypertrophied by estrogen treatment but were not affect in size by progesterone treatment. Immunohistochemical investigation was performed on the cell types with higher appearance of PCNA positive reaction cells in four groups. The groups with higher appearance of the stromal cells were ordered as estrogen-treated group, progesterone-treated group, estrogen+progesterone-treated group, and control group. The muscle cells were ordered as progesterone-treated group, estrogen-treated group, estrogen+progesterone-treated group, and control group. Positive reaction cells of the stromal cells were total 4.6 times higher than those of muscle cells. Therefore, the affect of the hypertrophy on the uterus by estrogen was larger than those of progesterone and affect on the uterus by stromal cells were larger than those of muscle cells. The group with more PCNA positive reaction cells of luminal epithelial cells were ordered as control group, progesterone-treated group, estrogen+progesterone-treated group, and estrogen-treated group, and glandular epithelial cells were ordered as estrogen+progesterone-treated group, progesterone-treated group, control group, and estrogen-treated group. It was suggested that estrogen and progesterone did not affect on the proliferating cells of luminal epithelial cells and affection of progesterone on the development of glandular epithelial cell was larger than that of estrogen.

Objectives : The present study was carried out investigate the anti-cancer effect of Salvia miltiorrhiza, Carydalis turtschaminovii and Reynoutria elliptica herbal acupuncture on solid tumor of rats induced by injection of RK3E-ras cells. Methods : RK3E-ras cells were injected on the right lumbar region of rats. After 1 weeks, the experimental rats were divided into four groups : Control group, Salvia miltiorrhiza herbal acupuncture group(SM), Carydalis turtschaminovii herbal acupuncture group(CT), Reynoutria elliptica herbal acupuncture group(RE). And we investigated the weight and size of tumor tissue, gross anatomy, histological and PCNA immunohistochemical study, hepatic and renal metastasis for tumor of each group. Results : 1. In the weight of tumor tissue assessment, SM and CT's weight of tumor tissue was decreased. 2. In the size of tumor tissue assessment, SM was smaller than any other group. 3. In the histological observation, SM's formation of tunica fibrosa that surround the tumor cell was obvious and vasculature that developes circumference of tumor cell was not observed, and density of tumor cell was very low. 4. In the PCNA immunohistochemical study, Control group, SM, RE showed strong immune response in the central site of tumor tissue. 5. In observation of liver and kidney tissue, we were not able to observe tumor cell in the SM. Conclusions : Consequently, SM and CT showed a inhibition of growth and metastasis.

Diagnosing Hirschprung's disease is one of the clinical challenges of this disorder. In the stomach and the intestines, Cathepsin D was readily detected in cytoplasm of the rat gastric and in intestinal ganglion cells of the autonomic nervous system. The objectives of the present study were to examine cathepsin D expression in ganglion cells of the submucosal and myenteric plexuses of the intestine of children and to determine the utility of immunohistochemical staining of cathepsin D for detection of immature ganglion cells. Paraffin blocks of 35 intestinal segments were reviewed for immunohistochemical staining with polyclonal antibody to cathepsin D and hematoxylineosin stainings from the compatible specimens. There were 9 aganglionic segments and 9 ganglionic segments of neonates with Hirschsprung's disease, 8 intestinal segments with non-Hirschsprung's disease in neonates and 9 intestinal segments with non-Hirschsprung's disease infants over the age of 10 months. All ganglion cells showed intense granular cytoplasmic reactivity for cathepsin D regardless of maturity and all aganglionic segments had no expression for cathepsin D in the submucosal and myenteric plexuses of the intestine. However, histiocytes within the laminar propria and submucosa stained positively for cathepsin D. In conclusion, intestinal ganglion cells in children have reactivity for cathepsin D, threrfore immunohistochemical staining for cathepsin D can be used for identification of ganglion cells in neonates.
