In eukaryotes, membraneous cellular compartmentation essentially requires vesicle trafficking for communications among distinct organelles. A donor organelle-generated vesicle releases its cargo into a target compartment by fusing two distinct vesicle and target membranes. Vesicle fusion, the final step of vesicle trafficking, is driven intrinsically by complex formation of soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptors (SNAREs). Although SNAREs are well-conserved across eukaryotes, genomic studies revealed that plants have dramatically increased the number of SNARE genes than other eukaryotes. This increase is attributed to the sessile nature of plants, likely for more sensitive and harmonized responses to environmental stresses. In this review, we therefore try to summarize and discuss the current understanding of plant SNAREs function in responses to biotic and abiotic stresses.

An investigation has been performed on the effects of temperature and Ni addition on the wetting behaviour of Cu on W substrate in hydrogen atmosphere. An sessile drop method was used to measure a wetting angle. The concentration profiles of W, Cu and Ni elements in W/Cu - 5 Ni specimen were made by EPMA. With increasing temperature, the wetting angle of Cu droplet on W plate decreases and the time to reach an equilibrium wetting angle is shortened in hydrogen atmosphere. The addition of Ni improves appreciably the wettability of Cu on W. With increasing Ni content in Cu liquid droplet(0, 1, 3, 5%), the wetting angle is decreased from 21$^{\circ}$to 0$^{\circ}$.

Condyloma acuminatum is an uncommon disease but there is an increased incidence reported in recent years in prepubertal children. Anal and perianal condyloma accuminatum in children may suggest sexual abuse and treatment should include the thorough social evaluation as well as medical treatment. A 25 month old girl presented with multiple sessile nodules around her anal and perianal area, Biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of condyloma accuminatum. There was no definite evidence of sexual abuse, but her father had condyloma accuminatum involving his penis. The patient's lesions were excised totally. At three week follow up there was no anal stricture but there were newly developed small lesions around perianal area. Imiquimod onit was applied for 2 weeks and the recurred lesion disappeared completely. At postoperative 5 month, the operative area was fully epithelialized without recurrence.

Surface micro-crack grows along intergranular or transgranular region of crystal grains. But if it meets the barrier such as sessile dislocation and precipitates it loses straightness and deflects. Investigators had many difficulties in estimating fatigue life of smooth specimen because of the random distribution growth and coalescence of surface micro-cracks. The path of surface micro-crack has irregularity due to nonhomogeneous microstructure. Euclidian geometry can't quantify the shape of surface micro-crack but fractal geometry can. Therefore in this paper fractal dimension is measured at various stage of cycle ratio and estimated cycle ratio in 2024-T3 aluminium, alloy.

We introduce an understanding of silver (Ag) inkjet overlap-printing characteristics from the viewpoints of cohesion between ink droplets and adhesion between an ink droplet and a surface. The printing characteristics were closely monitored by changing the surface energy to elucidate the effect of adhesion and cohesion on printing instability, such as droplet merging and line bulging. The surface energy of the substrate was changed through the hydrophilization of a hydrophobic fluorocarbon-coated surface. The surface energy and ink wettability of the prepared surfaces were characterized using sessile drop contact angle analysis, and printing instability was observed using an optical microscope after drop-on-demand inkjet printing with a 50% overlap in diameter of deposited singlet patterns. We found that the surface energy is not an appropriate indicator based on the experimental results of Ag ink printing on a hydrofluoric-treated silicon surface. The analytical approach using adhesion and cohesion was helpful in understanding the instability of the inkjet overlap-printing, as adhesion and cohesion represent the direct interfacial relationship between the Ag inks used and the substrate.

It is pointed out that non-wetting behavior of liquid Zn alloy occurs on high-tensile strength steels, which usually contain Si and Mn. There have been a lot of investigations to improve the above wettability of liquid Zn alloy with steels containing Si and Mn. Although those studies evaluated the wettability qualitatively by observation of the surface of steels galvanized by Zn or exfoliation test of Zn with substrate steels and so on, it is required to evaluate the wettability of liquid Zn with steels by measuring contact angle, work of adhesion, spreading velocity etc. which are usually used to assessment of general wetting behavior. In the present work, we evaluated the wettability of liquid Zn with steels containing Si and Mn by applying a sessile drop method to measure the change in contact angle and diameter of liquid Zn droplet wetted on steels.

The peripheral ossifying fibroma(POF) is a relatively common, non-neoplastic gingival growth that is classified as a reactive hyperplastic inflammatory lesion. The clinical appearance of POF is generally a small, well-circumscribed, focal mass with a sessile or pedunculated base. The pathogenesis of this lesion is uncertain. POFs are believed to arise from cells of the periodontal ligament as hyperplastic growth of tissue that is unique to the gingival mucosa. Approximately 60% of POFs occur in the maxilla, and 55%-60% of all cases occur in the incisor-canine area. Most lesions are less than 2 cm in size. To our knowledge, huge POF of approximately 8 cm in size in the lower posterior edentulous ridge has not been previously described in the English literature. We report an unusually huge POF overlying the lower posterior edentulous ridge mucosa, along with long-term follow up result.

접촉각을 이용한 표면에너지 측정방법은 부품소재분야를 비롯한 폴리머 화학제품 등에서 널리 사용되고 있다. 그중 측정할 대상의 고체 표면에 액체 방울을 떨어뜨리고 측면 접점 방향에 대한 영상을 촬영하여 고체 표면과 액체 방울이 이루고 있는 각도를 측정하는 방식을 가장 많이 사용하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존 접촉각 측정기의 배경과 액체 방울 사이의 명암 차를 이용하여 경계선을 찾는 Sessile-drop 영상처리 기법을 보완 및 개선하기 위하여 캐니 에지 검출 알고리즘을 적용하였다.

Yttria stabilized zirconia (Y-CSZ) single crystals show plastic deformation at high temperatures by activating dislocations. The effect of strain rate on the plastic behavior of this crystal was studied. As increasing strain rate from $\varepsilon=1.04\times10^{-5} sec^{-1}$ to $2.08\times10^{-5} sec^{-1}$ the yield drop was suppressed and resulted in higher Young's modulus and yield stress. Dislocation structures of the strained crystals were analyzed using a transmission electron microscope to elucidate the plastic behavior of these crystals. In the early stage of plastic deformation, dislocation dipoles and prismatic dislocation loops were formed in both samples. However, dislocation density was increased by increasing strain rate. Strong sessile dislocations were observed in the sample with higher strain rate, which may cause the higher work hardening.
