색소실조증(Incontinentia pigmenti)은 신생아기에 체간과 사지에 소수포가 발생하여 1세경이 되면 수포는 더 이상 생기지 않고 갈색반점이 나타나는 특징을 보이는 아주 드문 질환이다. Bloch-Sulzberger syndrome이라고 불리는 이 질환은 반성 우성 유전질환으로 대부분 여성에게 나타나며, 외배엽, 중배엽 기원 조직들인 눈, 치아, 피부, 손톱, 가슴, 머리카락, 신경계 등에 이상을 동반한다. 본 증례는 유치의 선천적 결손을 주소로 내원한 환아의 문진 중 색소실조증의 사실을 발견하고 검사한 결과, 다수의 유치와 영구치의 선천적 결손과 치아의 형태이상, 상악의 열성장, 치아의 형태이상과 악골 성장의 부조화 등으로 인한 교합불안정을 보이고 있었다. 전신적으로는 망막이상을 보여 수술을 시행한 상태이며, 피부에는 특징적 인 갈색반점을 보였다. 현재 치아결손부의 공간관리와, 심미적, 심리적인 문제의 해결, 그리고 기능의 회복을 위해 가철식 부분의치를 장착해주었으며, 계속적인 관찰을 하고 있다.

This study was conducted to confirm the degree of self care and problems in patients with ostomy. The subjects were 80 patients with ostomy who were visiting to OPD in K University Medical Center and were members in the Ostomy Association of Korea. Data were collected from August, 2004 to September. The research tools were a self care measure for ostomy patient developed by Park (1996) and a problem measure for ostomy patient developed by Lee (1996). Data were analyzed by t-test, ANOVA, and Pearson's correlation. The results were as following: 1. Male (65.8%) and female (34.2%) had the ostomy in the most. Age was the most 61 years old and over. 68.5% of the subjects had managed the ostomy by themselves. 2. The mean score of self care in ostomy was 3.57 score. Hygiene of skin care around ostomy in the behavior of self care was the highest as mean 4.47 score. 3. The problems were as following: 1) expense 2) a decline on Activity of Daily Living 3) discomfort in travel 4) worry about ostomy 5) trouble of workplace 4. In the relationship between self care and religion there was significant difference in religion(t= 2.727, P=.008). 5. The relationship between self care and problem with ostomy was found to have statistically significant negative correlation(r= -.237, P=.041).

결절성경화증은 유전성 신경피부 증후군으로 피부, 뇌, 신장 등의 여러 장기에 과오종을 형성하는 질환이다. 결절성경화증의 폐 침범은 드물지만 다발성 미세결절의 소견을 보이는 경우, 정확한 진단을 위해서는 고해상 흉부 전산화 단층 촬영 및 조직 검사가 필요하겠으며, 다발성 미세결절폐세포증식증을 감별 진단으로 고려해야 할 것이다. 이 질환의 임상적 의의 등 아직 알려진 것이 많지 않으나 현재까지의 보고로는 특별한 치료는 없으며 예후는 좋은 것으로 알려져 있다.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP), a known ethylene action inhibitor, on fruit quality and incidence of physiological disorders during a simulated marketing period in new mid-season Asian pear (Pyrus pyrifolia Nakai) 'Changjo'. Flesh firmness of untreated control fruits was maintained with a hardness of 20.2 N until day 14 of simulated marketing but decreased rapidly to 6.2 N at day 21 of simulated marketing; losing its commercial quality. However, the firmness of 1-MCP treated fruits remained high (> 20.7 N) during the same period. Quality indices such as soluble solids content and titratable acidity in 'Changjo' pear did not show any significant differences during simulated marketing period regardless of 1-MCP treatment. For the difference in skin color, redness ($a^*$) tended to increase as simulated marketing period became longer, and 1-MCP treatment delayed this change by 7 days compared to the untreated fruits. No decrease occurred in ethylene production level with 1-MCP treatment in 'Changjo' pear. Meanwhile, 1-MCP treated pears showed a significantly lower respiration rate compared to the untreated fruits. Also, 1-MCP treatment effectively reduced the incidence of physiological disorders including internal flesh browning and mealiness symptoms during simulated marketing periods of 21 and 14 days, respectively. Therefore, we conclude that the use of 1-MCP is recommended for quality maintenance and for prevention of physiological disorders during simulated marketing periods of ${\geq}7days$ for mid-season Asian pear 'Changjo'.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disorder characterized by progressive joint deterioration; Furthermore, RA can also affect body tissues, including the skin, eyes, lungs, heart and blood vessels. The early stages of RA can be difficult to diagnose because the signs and symptoms mimic those of many other diseases. It is not known exactly what triggers the onset of RA and how to cure the disease. But recent discoveries indicate that remission of symptoms is more likely when treatment begins early with strong medications known as disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs). Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors are typical examples of biotherapies that have been developed for RA. The substances may occur naturally in the body or may be made in the laboratory. Other biological therapies care biological response modifiers (BRMs)such as monoclonal antibodies, interferon, interleukin-2 (IL-2) and a protein binder using repeat units. These substances play significant anti-inflammatory roles. Proteins with recurrent, conserved amino acid stretches mediate interactions among proteins for essential biological functions; for example, ankyrin (ANK), Heat repeat protein (HEAT), armadillo repeat protein (ARM) and tetratricopeptide repeats (TPR). Here, we describe Leucine rich repeats (LRR) that ideally fold together to form a solenoid protein domain and is more applicable to our current study than the previously mentioned examples. Although BRMs have limitations in terms of immunogenicity and effector functions, among other factors, in the context therapeutic use and for proteomics research, We has become clear that repeat-unit-derived binding proteins will increasingly be used in biotechnology and medicine.

Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes) plays an important role in the disease pathogenesis of acne vulgaris, a disorder of pilosebaceous follicles, seen primarily in the adolescent age group. In the present study, the presence of antibodies against P. acnes (MTCC1951) were detected in acne patient (n=50) and disease free controls (n=25) using dot-ELISA and Western blot assay. The ability of P. acnes to induce pro-inflammatory cytokines by human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), obtained from acne patients and healthy subjects, were also analysed. The patients (n=26) who were culture positive for skin swab culture, were found to have a more advanced disease and higher antibody titres (1:4000 to >1:16000) compared to the P. acnes negative patients (n=24) and normal controls (n=25). An analysis of patients' sera by western blot assay recognized a number of antigenic components of P. acnes, rang-ing from 29 to 205 kDa. The major reactive component was an approximately 96 kDa polypeptide, which was recognised in 92％ (24 of 26) of the patients sera. Further, the P. acnes culture supernatant, crude cell lysate and heat killed P. acnes whole cells, obtained from 72-h incubation culture, were observed to be able to induce significant amounts of IL-8 and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-${\alpha}$) by the PBMCs in both the healthy subjects and patients, as analysed by cytokine-ELISA. The levels of cytokines were significantly higher in the patients than the healthy subjects. A major 96 kDa polypep-tide reactant was eluted from the gel and was found to cause dose dependent stimulation of the pro-ductions of IL-8 and TNF-${\alpha}$. Thus, the above results suggest that both humoral and pro-inflammatory responses play major roles in the pathogenesis of acne.
