  • 전신마취제인 케타민은 흥분성 아미노산의 활성을 방해하는 N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) 수용체의 비경쟁적인 길항제이다. 본 연구는 개 말초혈액 백혈구의 순간산소과소비현상(Oxidative burst activity; OBA)에 있어서 케타민의 효과를 검토하였다. 탐식세포의 OBA는 유세포 분석기로 분석하였다. 케타민을 말초혈액 다형핵백혈구(peripheral blood polymorphonuclear cells; PMN)와 monocyte-rich cells에 직접처리 하였을 때는 OBA가 감소하였으며, 또한 케타민을 처리한 말초혈액 단핵구세포(peripheral blood mononuclear cells; PBMC) 배양상층액에 의해서도 PMN과 monocyte-rich cells의 OBA가 감소하였다. 그러나 케타민을 처리한 PMN 배양상층액에 의해서는 탐식세포의 OBA에 있어서 아무런 변화가 없었다. 하지만 이러한 OBA의 감소는 latex beads를 넣어 탐식반응이 일어날 때만 측정되었다. 이상의 결과로부터 탐식반응이 일어나는 동안 케타민은 호중구와 단핵구와 같은 개 말초혈액 탐식구의 OBA에 있어 억제효과를 나타내었다.

  • 주정중독환자에서 초기 비특이적 면역력의 주된 반응인 백혈구 탐식작용을 이용하여 이들 환자들의 건강관리를 용이하게 할 수 있는지를 알아 보기위하여 백혈구 탐식 작용력을 측정하고자 실시하였고, 연구대상은 주정중독 의존형으로 진단된 남자 95명, 여자 3명과 대조군으로서는 건강한 헌혈자 32명을 대상으로 실시하였다. 또한 주정중독환자의 건강상태를 확인하기 위하여 백혈구수, 혈색소, 적혈구 평균용적, 혈청 단백질 전기영동, 림프구 아형 분리 및 림파구 유약화 시험도 실시하였따. 분석결과에서 혈색소와 적혈구 평균용적은 대조군에 비하여 신, 장기 입원 환자군에서 유의할만한 차이를 보였으며(P<0.05), 총 T와 B 림프구는 감소하였고, $T_{Helper}/T_{suppressor}$ 비율은 $1.6{\pm}0.8%$로 증가하였다. 특히 신, 장기입원 주정중독자의 Staphylococcus aureus Cowan I을 사용한 백혈구의 phagocytic plaque 형성력에서도 대조군에 비하여 현저하게 저하되었고, 이제까지 보고된 바 없는 특이한 strange body, 사슬상 탐식현상을 관찰 할 수 있었다. 따라서 Staphylococcus aureus Cowan I을 사용한 백혈구의 phagocytic plaque 형성 시험은 특별한 기구가 없이 간단하게 이용 가능하여 주정중독환자의 초기 면역력 측정에 매우 유용한 방법임을 알 수 있었다.

  • Hematological studies were conducted in reference to the immune enhancing mechanism of formalin applied to, as an inactivating agent, a formalin inactivaed anthrax vaccines in rabbits. Rabbits were inoculated two types of formalinized anthrax immunogens namely capsular and spore vaccines in addition of formalin saline as a control. From immune rabbits, peripheral blood was collected and subjected to count a total erythrocytes, leukocytes, and pyroninophilic lymphocytes. The experimental results were summarized as followings. At a level of 0.5M 0.5ml formalin with or without the addition to vaccine, a total leukocytes count was increased. Due to the increased lymphocytes, the ratio of neutrophil and lymphocyte was lowered within 4 to 12 hours of the postinoculation. Formalin saline, anthrax spore vaccine and capsular vaccine, without group difference, caused an increased level of pyroninophilic lymphocytes in peripheral blood. Throughout the studies, a possible role of immune enhancement by formlin was disscused and suggested.

  • Bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) plays a major role in the development of periapical bone resorption. IL-1 and $TNF-{\alpha}$ are known to stimulate bone resorption and inhibit bone formation. Recent evidence has indicated that polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) have the ability to release IL-1 and $TNF-{\alpha}$ Calcium hydroxide is an effective medicament in root canal infections, reducing the microbial titre within the canal. It has been proposed that the therapeutic effect of $Ca(OH)_2$ may also be the result of direct inactivation of LPS.(omitted)

  • DNA mutations undoubtedly contribute to the onset of some life style-related diseases including cancer. Rapid and reliable methods to detect DNA mutations and to isolate mutants should have a great impact on this field. Activated inflammatory leukocytes are considered to play some important roles in carcinogenesis by generating reactive oxygen species (ROS). The purpose of the present study is to examine the relationship between leukocyte activation by TPA and mutagenesis.(omitted)

  • Japanese flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) head kidney (HK) leukocytes were incubated with $10^3$ to $10^{-3}$ ng levamisole/ml for 4, 24 or 48 h and then assayed for their natural cytotoxic activity against xenogeneic tumor cells. This activity was slightly increased after 24 h of incubation. In a second experiment, fish were fed 0, 75, 150 or 300 mg levamisole/kg diet for 10 consecutive days. The fish were then fed a commercial non-supplemented diet and sampled 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 or 6 weeks post-administration of levamisole. The cytotoxic activity was found to be increased with increasing levamisole dose and remained greatly enhanced until the end of the experiment. In conclusion, levamisole enhanced flounder natural cytotoxic cell activity both in vitro and in vivo and had a great lasting action when administered by feeding.

  • White blood cells (WBCs) are present in most human ejaculates, but abnormally high concentration of seminal leukocytes may reflect an underlying pathological condition. The World Health Organization (WHO) has defined leukocytospermia as status of more than $10^6$ WBC/mL of semen. The purpose of this study was firstly, to compare the outcomes between conventional IVF and ICSI in leukocytospermia, and secondly, to investigate whether ICSI may be an alternation treatment for patients with leukocytospermia. Total 346 cycles of conventional IVF and ICSI candidates underwent IVF cycles at Eulji Hospital Infertility Clinic. Semen Parameters including concentration, motility, morphology of spermatozoa and concentration of leukocytes were assessed from the raw ejaculates. There was no difference in sperm concentration, motility and morphology. The rates of fertilization and good embryo development from ICSI were significantly higher than those from conventional IVF in leukocytospermia (60.4% & 32.5%, respectively for ICSI group and 44.4% & 28.5%, respectively for IVF group, P<0.00l). The pregnancy rate after ICSI was also higher than that from conventional IVF (34.0% vs 29.1 %, P<0.05). These results indicate that the presence of seminal leukocyes (> 1$\times10^6$ WBC/mL of semen) is adversely related with fertilization, embryo development and pregnancy rate. Therfore the measurement of seminal leukocytes in routine semen analysis appears to be of prognostic value with regard to male fertilizing potential. In conclusion, it is suggested that ICSI is an alternative choice of treatment for patients with leukocytospermia.
