골은 일생에 걸쳐 지속적인 재형성과장을 거치면서 유지되고 이러한 기전에 대한 연구는 골다공증을 비롯한 골대사 질환의 병태생리와 치료에 있어 큰 진전을 이루고 있다. 특히 생체 내 골형성 및 재생과정을 연구하는데 있어 형광표지자를 이용하는 방법이 널리 알려져 있는데, 그 중 calcein은 칼슘 킬레이터로 골이 새롭게 형성하는 부위에 녹색을 띔으로써 유용한 마커로 사용된다. 그러나 대부분의 골형성 연구에서 실험동물의 경우 표본제작을 할 때 크기가 작고 뼈가 부숴지기 쉬워 rat이나 rabbit을 이용하였으며, mice의 femur를 cross-section해서 관찰한 연구는 거의 없는 실정이다. 그래서 본 연구에서는 어린 mice를 실험동물로 이용하였으며, 생체 내 calcein을 4주간, 8주간 투여한 후 골 형성 변화를 형광현미경으로 관찰한 결과 8주차 쥐에서 4주차보다 진하고 골 형성 간격도 넓게 관찰된 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. Mice는 빠른 시일 내에 결과를 얻을 수 있고 부작용이 적은 장점이 있어서 앞으로 knock-out mice를 이용한 생체 내 실험에 활용하기 적합하다고 생각되며, 골형성 속도 평가 등 다양한 분야에서의 골 형성과 재생연구에 있어 기초 정보를 제공할 것으로 기대한다.

Recently, alteration on chemical treatment on the root and removal of pathologic bacteria, which is the main reason for periodontal disease, by complete removal of infected cementum layer was been emphasied In this study, teeth extracted due to periodontal disease were root planed using periodontal curette and roto bur. Then they were treated with different concentration of Tetracycline HCI at different time. The state of root surface and change in the pre and post treatment was observed. The results were as follows. 1. The group treatment with periodontal curette and saline showed remaining plaque, debris and irregular surface and no dentianl tubule orifice could be seen. 2. The group treatment with periodontal curette and tetracycline HCI showed process compoed with decacified material and there was concanity seemed to be a lacunae of cementocyte. 3. The group treatment with roto bur and saline, there was no remaning plaque and partial dentinal tubule orifice could be seen but smear layer covering them.4. The group treatment with roto bur and tetracycline HCI showed various shape and size dentinal tubule orifice could be seen. From the results, roto bur showed cleaner surfaces than treatment with periodontal curette. But still smear layer existed. Thus for regeneration of periodontal tissue, chemical treatment using tetracycline HCI should follow roto bur treatment. And it is considered that the treatment time is more important than the concentration of tetracycline HCl.

지역경제의 성공에 있어 산업클러스터의 중요성에 대한 증대된 인식에도 불구하고, 구산업지구에 대한 클러스터 정책의 효과성에 대해서는 그다지 많은 관심이 모이지 못했다. 이들 지역 중 상당수에서는 아직 산업클러스터가 작동하고 있거나 재도약을 위한 새로운 전략이 모색되고 있다. 본 연구는 구산업지구에서 대한 산업클러스터 정책의 효과성을 산업클러스터의 진화적 성격에 대한 이해로부터 찾으려 한다. 이를 위하여 유럽 구산업지구의 변환에 대한 선행연구들을 고찰하고, 어떻게 클러스터 정책이 주요한 정책수단으로 등장하게 되었는지 살펴본다. 본 연구는 또한 영국의 북동지 역에서 어떻게 철강산업의 공급체인이 형성되었는지 사례 연구를 통해 살펴본다. 마지막으로 본 연구의 결론은 클러스터 형성 과정에서의 정책적 개입의 타이밍을 어떻게 잡을 것인지를 보여주는 자료에 초점을 맞추고 있다.

SC-FDMA(single carrier-frequency division multiple access)는 낮은 첨두전력을 가져 최근 3GPP LTE(3rd Generation Partnership Project Long Term Evolution)의 상향 다중 접속방식으로 채택되었다. 파형정형 여파기인 제곱근 상승여현 여파기의 롤오프 계수가 1에서 0으로 감소함에 따라 SC-FDMA의 부반송파 매핑방식 중 하나인 IFDMA(interleaved FDMA) 방식의 대역폭은 좁아지지만, 오히려 그 첨두전력은 심각하게 증가할 수 있다. 실제 시스템에서는 증폭기의 전력효율을 높이기 위하여 높은 첨두전력을 특정 값 이하로 절사하는 클리핑 과정을 수행하게 된다. 신호의 클리핑은 고주파 성분의 재생성 및 신호의 왜곡을 야기할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 파형정형된 IFDMA 신호에서 클리핑이 스펙트럼과 오율에 미치는 영향을 분석한다.

Biodegradable nanofibrous poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) scaffold was prepared by an electrospinning process for use in tissue regeneration. The nanofiber scaffold was treated with oxygen plasma and then simultaneously in situ grafted with hydrophilic acrylic acid (AA) to obtain PLLA-g-PAA. The fiber diameter, pore size, and porosity of the electrospun nanofibrous PLLA scaffold were estimated as $250\sim750nm,\;\sim30{\mu}m$, and 95%, respectively. The ultimate tensile strength was 1.7 MPa and the percent elongation at break was 120%. Although the physical and mechanical properties of the PLLA-g-PAA scaffold were comparable to those of the PLLA control, a significantly lower contact angle and significantly higher ratio of oxygen to carbon were notable on the PLLA-g-PAA surface. After the fibroblasts were cultured for up to 6 days, cell adhesion and proliferation were much improved on the nanofibrous PLLA-g-PAA scaffold than on either PLLA film or unmodified nanofibrous PLLA scaffold. The present work demonstrated that the applications of plasma treatment and hydrophilic AA grafting were effective to modify the surface of electrospun nanofibrous polymer scaffolds and that the altered surface characteristics significantly improved cell adhesion and proliferation.

Seasonal variations of various physicochemical components (temperature, salinity, pH, DO, COD, DOC, nutrients-silicate, DIN, DIP) and potential limiting factor for phytoplankton primary production were studied in the surface water of semi-enclosed Masan Bay. Seasonal variations of nutrient concentrations, with lower values in summer and winter, and higher in fall, are probably controlled by freshwater loadings to the bay, benthic flux and magnitude of occurrence of phytoplankton communities. Their spatial distributional patterns are primarily dependent on physical mixing process between freshwater and coastal seawater, which result in a decreasing spatial gradient from inner to outer part of the bay. In the fall season of strong wave action, the major part of nutrient inputs (silicate, ammonium, dissolved inorganic phosphorus) comes from regeneration (benthic flux) at sediment-water interface. During the summer period, high Si:DIN and Si:DIP and low DIN:DIP relative to Redfield ratios suggest a N- and secondarily P-deficiency. During other seasons, however, silicate is the potential limiting factor for primary production, although the Si-deficiency is less pronounced in the outer region of the bay. Indeed, phytoplankton communities in Masan Bay are largely affected by the seasonal variability of limiting nutrients. On the other hand, the severe depletion of DIN (relatively higher silicate level) during summer with high freshwater discharge probably can be explained by N-uptake of temporary nanoflagellate blooms, which responds rapidly to pulsed nutrient loading events. In Masan Bay, this rapid nutrient consumption is considerably important as it can modify the phytoplankton community structures.

In this paper, we propose an efficient architecture for a real-time image stitching engine for vision SoCs found in motor vehicles. To enlarge the obstacle-detection distance and area for safety, we adopt panoramic images from multiple telegraphic cameras. We propose a stitching method based on a fixed homography that is educed from the initial frame of a video sequence and is used to warp all input images without regeneration. Because the fixed homography is generated only once at the initial state, we can calculate it using SW to reduce HW costs. The proposed warping HW engine is based on a linear transform of the pixel positions of warped images and can reduce the computational complexity by 90% or more as compared to a conventional method. A dual-core SW/HW image stitching engine is applied to stitching input frames in parallel to improve the performance by 70% or more as compared to a single-core engine operation. In addition, a dual-core structure is used to detect a failure in state machines using rock-step logic to satisfy the ISO26262 standard. The dual-core SW/HW image stitching engine is fabricated in SoC with 254,968 gate counts using Global Foundry's 65 nm CMOS process. The single-core engine can make panoramic images from three YCbCr 4:2:0 formatted VGA images at 44 frames per second and frequency of 200 MHz without an LCD display.

Objectives The aim of this study is to evaluate the fracture healing effect of Jinmu-tang (JM) on femur fractured rats. Methods Rats were randomly divided into 5 groups (normal, control, positive control, JM extract with low concentration and JM extract with high concentration). All group except normal group went through both femur fracture. Normal and control group received no treatment at all. Positive control group were medicated with tramadol (20 mg/kg) once a day for 14 days. Experimental group was orally medicated with JM extract (10 mg/kg for low concentration, 50 mg/kg for high concentration) once a day for 14 days. In order to investigate fracture healing process, plasma and serum were obtained. Also, micro-computed tomography was conducted to see the frature site visually. Immunohistochemistry for transforming growth factor-β1, Ki67, alkaline phosphatase, runt-related transcription factor 2, receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-β, tartrate resistant acid phosphatase was conducted to observe bone healing progress after 14 days since fracture occured. Aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, blood urea nitrogen and creatinine levels were measured in plasma, for hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity of JM extract. Osteocalcin was measured to observe activity of osteoblast. Results Through Micro-CT, more fracture healing was observed on both experimental group than control and positive control group. Through Hematoxylin & Eosin and safranin O staining showed bone cell proliferation and bone formation in the experimental group. RANK was significantly increased in the experimental groups. JM with high concentration showed statistically significant of TGF-β and Osteocalcin. NO, TRAP and ALP were not significantly changed. Liver toxicity was not significantly observed. Creatinine significantly increased in both experimental groups after 28 days. Conclusions As described above, JM extract showed anti-inflammatory effect, promoted fracture healing by stimulating the bone regeneration factor, and showed little hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity. In conclusion, JM extract can promote fracture healing and it can be used clinically to patients with fracture.

Recently, diabetic patients are increasing in the field of microvascular surgery. Diabetes melltius is known to be related to arterial damage, platelet malfunction and thrombus formation. After microvascular anastomosis, delayed repair and vascular occlusion occurred more frequently in diabetic state. This study was performed to investigate the patency rate and process of endothelial healing after microvascular anastomosis of femoral artery in diabetic rat by scanning electron microscope. The animals were divided into two groups, 20 diabetic-induced and 20 non-diabetic groups. Diabetes was induced with a injection of Streptozotocin(50mg/kg b.w., Sigma Chemical Co.) to tail vein. The results obtained were as follows: 1. Macroscopically, anastomotic site was intact except a few cases showed minimal inflammatory sign around the wound site. But the inflammatory change was frequently occurred in diabetic-induced group. 2. The patency rate was 95% (19/20) in non-diabetic group and 65% (13/20) in diabetic-induced group. 3. In the non-diabetic group, anstomotic region was mostly endothelized by the alignment along the long axis of vessel but stitchs were not covered with endothelial cells. The thichkening of vessel wall was not observed. 4. In the diabetic-induced group, anastomotic region was not endothelized but covered with blood cellular components and connective tissue instead of endothelial cells. The thickening of the vessel wall was prominent in some diabetic-induced rats. These results suggest that diabetes was related to delayed regeneration of endothelium of vessels after microsurgical anastomosis.
