The apparatus has been fabricated using the laser diode and microprocessor unit. The apparatus used a InGaAlP laser diode for laser medical therapy and was designed for a pulse width modulation type to increase stimulation effects. To raise the stimulus effect of the human body, the optical irradiation frequency could be set up. The study has executed in-vivo experiment by employing our own developed laser diode irradiation system to investigate the effects of the InGaAlP laser diode irradiation on the wound healing as a preliminary study aimed at the application of InGaAlP laser diode to wound healing of human skin injury. The study cut out whole skin layers of Sprague-Dawley rat on the back part in 1 cm circle and observed developing effects after executing light irradiation for 9 days, and in result it is found that the light irradiation rat showed earlier wound healing than non-irradiation rat during the experimental period. In addition, there are some differences found regarding the healing process between laser diode irradiated rats and non-irradiated ones.

In order to investigate the histological and immunohistochemical changes of thyroid glands, and serum osteocalcini estradiol, pmgesterone, follicular-stimulating hormone (FSH), and calcium levels in the osteoporotic rats induced by ovariectomy, normal(sham-operated group) and experimental groups(ovariectomized group) were divided. The experimental groups were subdivide6 to 5, 10, 15, and 20 weeks after ovariectomized groups. The histological structure of the thyroid gland were observed in normal structure throughout all experimental periods but the calcitonin-immunoreartive cells in the experimental groups were significantly decreased compared with normal groups and degranulations of calcitonin-immunoreactive cells were observed. Theses numbers were decreased with time after ovariectomy. However, the serum osteocalcin and FSH levels of experimental groups were significantly increased compared with normal groups and these levels were increased along with time after ovariectomy, but serum estradiol, progestemn and calcium levels of experimental group were significantly decreased compared with normal groups and these levels were decreased with time after ovariectomy.

LAR-RPTP (leukocyte common antigen-related receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase) is an important regulator in the nervous system, but little is known about its expression pattern in rat trigeminal ganglion (TG) neurons. To examine whether LAR-RPTP is expressed in the TG in the current study, we sacrificed rats at 0, 7, 10 and 56 day postpartum (dpp) and a second group of rats at 3 and 5 days after an experimental tooth extraction as a TG injury model. RT-PCR was then used to determine the level of LAR-RPTP expression in the TG and immunohistology was employed to detect the subcellular localization of the protein. The mRNA expression of LAR-RPTP during the developmental stages in the TG was found to gradually increase. After experimental tooth extraction however, these transcript levels had significantly decreased at three days. LAR-RPTP protein signals in the TG were found to be cytoplasmic in the normal animals but interestingly, at five days after an experimental tooth extraction, these signals were rare. These results indicate that LAR-RPTP may be regulated during both the developmental as well as regenerative processes that take place in the TG. This further suggests that LAR-RPTP is not only involved in primary axonogenesis but possibly also in the molecular control of axons during TG repair.

This study was performed to investigate the antithrombotic activity and protective effect of hexane fraction of Kamihyulbuchukeotang (KHCTH) on brain injury by KCN and MCA occlusion a prescription of HCT added with Lumbricus and Notoginseng Radix. Experiemental parameters are brain ischemia by MCA occlusion assay, KCN-induced brain injury, pulmonary thrombosis and platelet aggregation assay. The results were summarized as follows; 1. KHCTH extracts significantly inhibited the duration of KCN-induced coma (67%) and mortality (80%). 2. KHCTH extracts significantly suppressed brain ischemic area and edema following MCA occlusion and protected neuron cells as compared with control data. 3. KHCTH extracts inhibited pulmonary thrombosis induced by collagen and epinephrine. 4. KHCTH extracts inhibited platelet aggregation induced by collagen, ADP as agonist up to 76.9% and 32.3% respectivey at 1 mg/ml more effective than water extract of KHCT These data suggested that KHCTH could be applied as the protector of brain ischemia and injury and antithrombotic agent.

Granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF)는 과립구 및 대식세포뿐만 아니라 상피세포의 증식과 분화를 자극하는 당단백질이며, 최근 생산된 벼세포 유래 재조합 GMCSF(rrhGM-CSF)는 감염원으로부터 안전하고 당사슬이 매우 풍부하여 물질의 안정성 혹은 효과의 지속성을 높여 주는 것으로 알려졌다. 본 실험에서는 간 재생 능력이 우수한 흰쥐를 실험모델로 하여 간의 78%를 제거한 후, 간 재생을 유도하는 과정에서 rrhGM-CSF를 처리하고, 시간 경과에 따라 형태변화의 차이와 더불어 단백질 발현 분석법과 면역조직화학법을 이용하여 PCNA 발현에 미치는 효과에 대해서 알아보고자 하였다. rrhGMCSF는 간 재생 속도를 뚜렷이 증가시키지는 못하였으나, 대조군에 비해 실험군에서는 재생 초기에 간 세포판의 붕괴와 재구성 시기를 다소 앞당기는 것으로 관찰되었다. 증식 중인 세포에서 증가하는 것으로 알려져 있는 핵단백질인 proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA)의 간 조직에서의 분포와 발현 정도를 보면 부분간절제 후 12시간과 24시간에서는 PCNA 단백질이 두 그룹에서 조금씩 발현되다가 간 절제 3일과 5일이 경과한 실험군에서 단백질이 높게 발현되었다. 간 재생이 진행될수록 간 조직 전체에서 고르게 PCNA 양성반응이 나타났으며, 대조군 보다 실험군에서 반응성이 더 뚜렷한 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과들로 보아 부분 간절제 후 간 재생을 유도하는 과정에서 rrhGM-CSF가 세포분열을 촉진시키는 인자들 중의 하나로 작용하여 간 재생에 효과를 나타낼 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
