This study was designed to investigate the effects of green tea extract on aluminum-induced damage to phospholipid content in old rat cerebral tissue. The aim of this study was to investigate the possibility that aluminum is the cause of Alzheimer's disease. Forty Sprague-Dawley old male rats weighing 350$\pm$10 g were divided into four groups, consisting of a control group (CON), 40 ppm aluminum sulfate group (Al-40), green tea water extract group (GTWE), and 40 ppm aluminum sulfate and green tea water extract groups (Al-40+GTWE) and kept on their respective diets for 12 weeks. In order to discover the influence of aluminum on cerebral tissue of old male rats, the serum aluminum concentration and phospholipid composition were compared between the aluminum-treated group and the normal group. The results showed that the serum aluminum concentration was higher in the aluminum sulfate-treated group than in the normal group. The cerebral tissue phospholipid concentration decreased significantly in the aluminum sulfate treated group as compared to the normal group. The results of this experiment show that increase of aluminum concentration in experimental animals causes the rise of serum aluminum and phospholipid concentrations, phenomena that are very similar to those shown in Alzheimer's disease., The results of this experiment, together with reports that aluminum is a cause of neurofibrillary tangles in cerebral tissue, therefore demonstrate the possibility that aluminum is the cause of Alzheimer's disease. Green tea water extract is also shown to be an effective therapeutic candidate for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.

네오레게리아(Neoregeria carorinae 'Tricolor')의 기내배양시 무늬소실을 줄일 수 있는 재료의 채취시기와 발근을 위하여 기내에서 처리된 오옥신이 온실에 이식된 식물체의 생육 및 개화에 미치는 영향에 관하여 실험한 결과, 화아분화 4주후(III단계)에 미숙화기를 배양한 것이 분화된 식물체 중 정상 식물체가 67%로 가장 많았고, 화아분화 직후 및 화아분화 5주후에 배양한 것은 모두 반입이 소실되었다. 미숙화기와 액아를 배양하여 나온 식물체중 정상식물체 획득율은 미숙화기 배양에서는 67%, 액아배양에서는 56.2%였다. 미숙화기를 배양하여 얻은 식물체가 액아를 배양하여 얻은 식물체보다 온실재배에서 생육이 월등이 좋았고, 개화율도 미숙화기를 배양하여 얻은 식물체는 27.8%이었으나 액아를 배양하여 얻은 식물체는 전혀 개화하지 않았다. IBA 0.5 mg/L가 첨가된 배지에서 발근시킨 식물체의 기외생육이 왕성하였으며, 기내에서 처리한 오옥신 종류와 농도는 온실에서 재배되고 있는 식물체의 변이에 영향을 미치지는 않았다.

Several studies have investigated the various effects of dexamethasone (Dex) on the proliferation and differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Previously, we reported that co-treatment with L-ascorbic acid 2-phosphate and fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-2 maintained differentiation potential in MSCs through expression of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF). In this study, we investigated the effects of co-treatment with FGF-2 and Dex on the proliferation and differentiation potential of MSCs during a 2-month culture period. Co-treatment with FGF-2 and Dex increased approximately a 4.7-fold higher accumulation rate of MSC numbers than that by FGF-2 single treatment during a 2-month culture period. Interestingly, co-treatment with FGF-2 and Dex increased expression of HGF and maintained adipogenic differentiation potential during this culture period. These results suggest that co-treatment with FGF-2 and Dex preserves the proliferation and differentiation potential during long-term culture.
