The sex steroid hormone estradiol-$17{\beta}(E_2)$ mediate their biological effects on development, differentiation and maintenance of reproductive tract and other target tissue through gene regulation by nuclear steroid receptors. Although the importance of $E_2$ in many physiological process has been reported, but little is known about the effects of $E_2$ on primary cultured chicken hepatocyte. therefore, in the present study, we have examined the effect of $E_2$ on cell proliferation and it's related signal cascades. $E_2$ increase $[^3H]$-thymidine incorporation in time-(${\leq}8hr$) and dose-($10^{-10}M$)dependent manner and treatment of $E_2$ increased the phosphorylation of p44/43 MAPKs(p44/42 mitogen-activated protein kinase) and JNK(c-Jun N-terminal kinase) in a time dependent manner. In addition, PD98059(p44/42 blocker, $10^{-5}M$), SP600125(JNK blocker, $10^{-6}M$) blocked the estrogen-induced increase in $[^3H]$-thymidine incorporation. In conclusion, $E_2$ stimulates the proliferation of primary cultured chicken hepatocytes and this action is mediated by p44/42 MAPKs and JNK signal transduction pathway.

Background: Eckol purified from Ecklonia cava, a brown alga has been known to have cytoprotective effects on some cell lines against oxidants and ionizing radiation. However, there is no study about the effects of eckol on immune cells. Methods: Bone marrow (BM)-derived dendritic cells (DCs) were used to demonstrate the immunomodulatory effects of eckol on DCs, such as viability, the expression of surface markers, allogeneic stimulating capacity using MTI, flow cytometric, $^3H$-thymidine incorporation assay. Results: Eckol did protect DCs against cytokine withdrawal-induced apoptosis in a concentration dependent manner based on MTT assay. And also, it increased the expression of MHC class II and CD86 (B7.2) molecules, maturation markers, on the surface of viable DCs gated in FACS analysis. Furthermore, eckol-treated DCs stimulated the proliferation of allogeneic $CD4^+$ T lymphocytes compared to imDCs in $^3H$-thymidine incorporation assay. $CD4^+$ T lymphocytes activated with eckol-treated DCs produced the larger amount of IFN-${\gamma}$ and IL-4 than those cells with imDCs. Conclusion: Taken together, we demonstrate in this study that eckol, a pure compound of Ecklonia cava, may modulate the immune responses through the phenotypic and functional changes of DCs.

무균(無菌) 상태하에서 습윤한 여지위에 숙성(熟成)시킨 감자 괴경 박편(塊莖 薄片) $(1mm{\times}1.5cm)$을 재료로 방사선(放射線)의 작용기작(作用幾作)연구를 행하였다. Invertase, 핵산 및 호흡작용의 time courses를 결정하고 이들 세작용의 방사선(放射線)에 대한 민감도를 측정하였다. 세 작용 중 어느 것도 세포분열을 억제하는 선량에서 심하게 억제되지 않았다. $^3H-thymidine$의 incorporation 결과는 방사선(放射線)의 작용부위가 mitosis나 $G_2$ period에 존재할지도 모른다는 것을 암시한다.

소양호에서 측정된 세균 체적, 세균 생물량 및 세균 생산량 등의 미생물학적인 요인의 변화에 미치는 물리화학적 환경요인의 영향을 통계학적 방법으로 분석을 하였다. 상관관계 분석과 중회귀 분석 결과 수온은 대부분의 미생물학적 요인에 폭넓은 영향을 미침을 알 수 있었다. 총 세균수, 세균 체적, 세균 생물 량 및 saprophyte 수외 변화는 엽록소 a와 pheophytin a의 존재와 높은 상관관계를, $^{3}H$-thymidine incorporation rate에 의해 측정된 세균 생산량은 seston의 농도에 큰 영향을 받는 것으로 분석되었다. 소양호 수중생태계에서의 세균 체적 및 세균 생물량의 미생물학적 요인은 미생물 군집에게 탄소와 에너지원으로 작용하는 유기물질의 제공원인 식물성 플랑크톤의 분포와 seston의 농도에 의해 조절되고 있음을 시사하여 준다.

시험관 내에서 T-2 toxin이 병아리 비장세포의 blastogenesis에 미치는 영향을 살펴본 결과, B-cell mitogen인 lipopolysaccharide 및 T-cell mitogen인 concanavalin A 자극에 대해 T-2 toxin의 농도가 증가함에 따라 억제정도가 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. 노출시기를 달리하여 T-2 toxin을 투여한 병아리의 비장세포에서 mitogen 자극에 내한 반응을 안아 본 결과, 부화하기 전과 후에 계속 T-2 toxin에 노출시킨 실험군은 가장 영향을 많이 받은 것으로 나타났고 부화전 혹은 부화후 어느 한 시기에만 T-2 toxin에 노출된 실험군은 비교적 영향을 적게 받는 것으로 나타났다.

The ability of $^{67}Ga$, administered carrier free as the citrate complex, to localize in human and animal tumors to an extent sufficient to permit visualization of the lesion by scanning is well established. However, neither the mechanism of $^{67}Ga$ uptake by tumors or inflammatory cells nor its relationship to cell type or to the biochemical status of the cell is yet understood. Author investigated the uptake of $^{67}Ga-citrate$ using subcellular tissue fractionation of rat livers treated with $CCl_4$ associated with the $^3H-thymidine$ incorporation rate to detect subcellular localization of $^{67}Ga$ and it's relationship in DNA synthesis. Large amounts of $^{67}Ga$ associated with the soluble portion of tissue homogenate rather than with isolated cell organelles and not related nuclei residue in the regenerating period after hepatocellular injury caused by $CCl_4$. The elevated uptake of $^{67}Ga$ in the livers of $CCl_4$ treated rats was also inhibited when protein synthesis was stopped by cyclohexamide. Thus protein and the soluble portion of issue homogenates seems to play an important role in the elevated uptake of $^{67}Ga$ in liver injury induced by $CCl_4$ treated rats.

The present study has been carried out to investigate the optimal condition on lymphocyte blastogenesis of rabbit lymphocytes, whole blood culture and microculture system in conjunction with a semiautomatic multiple sample harvester(SAMSH) was used to study the In vitro optimal condition of rabbit lymphocytes. Data were presented to show many variables that are involved in studying the phytohemagglutinin(PHA) and lipopolysaccharide(LPS) response of rabbit lymphocyte in a microculture system. Analysis indicated that the conditions for optimal PHA as measured by incorporation of $^3H$-TdR include: (1) use of RPMI-1640 as culture medium. (2) use of $6{\mu}g$ of PHA, per culture. (3) 48-hours culture period. Conditions for optimal stimulation with LPS mitogen were similar to those used for PHA.

The effect of radioprotective ginseng protein fraction on DNA repair capacity was determined by measuring the amount of $^{3}H-thymidine$ incorporated into DNA in the process of repair synthesis for UV damaged DNA. CHO-Kl cells were prepared whose semiconservative replication was inhibited by trimethylpsoralen plus near-UV(PUVA) treatment. When the cells were exposed to UV light alone, the DNA repair capacity was increased at first and then decreased as UV dose increased. However, when the ginseng fraction was treated to the cells, the DNA repair capacity was kept increasing regardless of UV dose increment. When the concentration of protein contained in the added fraction was increased gradually, the repair capacity was also increased almost linearly showing dose-response relationship of the effect. These results suggest that the enhancement of DNA repair capacity of the cell can be one of the mechanisms of radioprotection by the ginseng fraction.

The inhibitory effects of kale juice on the growh and DNA incorporation of human cancer cells, using HT-29 colon cancer cells, MG-63 osteosarcoma cells, AGS gastric adenocarcinoma cells and K-562 leukemia cells, were studied. The growth of human cancer cells were inhibited in the presence of kale juice (10, 20 nd 40$\mu$l/ml) and the effects were the juice concentration- and incubation time-dependent up to 6 days. When 20$\mu$l/ml of kale juice was added to the media of HT-29, MG-63, AGS and K-562 cancer cells, the cell growth after 6 or 4 days of incubation was retarded by 83~95% of control group. Morphological changes of HT-29 colon cancer cells wre studied under inverted microscope. As the concentration of kale juice increased up to 20$\mu$l/ml, degree of cell aggregation was decreased. Moreover, the DNA incorporation o AGS gastric adenocarcinoma cells and MG-63 osteosarcoma cells which were labeled with [$^3$H] thymidine was significantly reduced after 2 days of incubation at 37$^{\circ}C$ with kale juice. Therefore, we concluded that kale juice strongly decreased the growth of various human cancer cells.

인삼주정추출액 투여에 의하여 마우스 악하선 조직의 DNA 합성능이 어떤 영향을 받는지를 알기 위하여 30마리의 마우스 (몸 무게 $18{\sim}20$ gm) 수컷을 15마리씩 두 무리로 나누어 한 무리에는 생리적 식염수를 다른 무리에는 인삼주정추출액(인삼주정추출물 4mg 을 생리적 식염수 1ml 속에 용해시켜 만든 용액)을 마우스의 몸 무게 10gm에 대하여 0.05ml씩 5일 동안 주사한 후 $[^3H]-thymidine$을 복강 속에 주사하고 1, 10 및 24시간 만에 도살하여 자기방사법을 이용하여 악하선의 합성능을 비교 관찰한 바 인삼주정추출액을 투여받은 마우스의 악하선 조직의 표지 세포수는 식염수만을 투여받은 마우스의 그것에 비하여 적었다. 그러므로 인삼주정추출액은 마우스의 악하선 조직 DNA 합성능을 어느 정도 억압한다고 믿어진다.
