非同時化시킨 HeLa $S_3$ 細胞에 있어 MMS에 의한 $^3 H$-Thymidine Uptake率은 MMS의 頻度증가에 따라 직선적으로 감소하며, BUdR 혹은 IUdR과 二重處理할 경우 그 감소율은 더욱 증가한다. MMS에 의한 $^3 H$-Thymidine Uptake은 thymidine 二重 處理후 얻은 同時化된 HeLa $S_3$ 細胞의 $G_2$ 時期에서 檢出된다. BUdR과 IUdR은 MMS에 의한 $^3 H$-Thymidine Uptake率을 더욱 증가시키며 IUdR은 BUdR에 비해 더효과적인 感受性 物質로 판명되었다.

The effects of pyridoxine (PN) on rifampicin (RMF) toxicity were investigated by both in vivo and in vitro methods. RMF (30 mg/kg) was injected intraperitoneally and PN(150 mg/kg) was administered orally to rats for 10 consecutive days. After treatment, clinical chemistry and hematologic profiles were measured. RMF and PN plus RMF did not show any adverse effects at this in vivo experimental condition. Thymidine incorporations of mice bone marrow cells were examined in vitro. RMF showed a decrease in thymidine uptake in a dose-dependent manner, but PN showed a reversal of the thymidine uptake suppression caused by RMF (p<0.01). On the other hand, PN showed a decrease in thymidine uptake at a high concentration level.

The most significant direct role of estrogen in vivo is its ability to elicit receptor-mediated cellular proliferation in mammalian target tissues. However, the mechanism by which exogenously added estrogen causes the neoplastic transformation of renal cortical cells is yet to be uncovered. The present study was designed to evaluate interaction of $17{\beta}-estradiol\;(E_2)$ with epidermal growth factor (EGF) and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) on proliferation and $P_i$ uptake in primary cultured rabbit renal proximal tubular cells in phenol red-free, hormonally defined-medium. $[^3H]-thymidine$ incorporation increased markedly by about 133% and 141% more in the presence of $10^{-9}\;and\;10^{-6}\;M\;E_2$, respectively, than that of control. Cell count was 162% and 143% greater in the presence of $10^{-9}\;and\;10^{-6}\;M\;E_2$ , respectively, compared with control. Among all time points examined, there was an increase in $[^3H]-thymidine$ incorporation in the presence of $10^{-9}\;M\;E_2$ at day 9 or 13, respectively. However, $E_2$ ($10^{-9}\;M$) significantly drove up cell count to 160% of that of control at day 13, while it had a slight but statistically insignificant effect at day 9. $E_2-induced$ stimulation of $[^3H]-thymidine$ incorporation was completely reversed by $E_2$ antagonists (progesterone or tamoxifen). $E_2$ ($10^{-9}\;M$) or EGF ($10^{-8}\;M$) significantly stimulated $[^3H]-thymidine$ incorporation by 144% and 154% of control. $E_2$ plus EGF was synergistic on $[^3H]-thymidine$ incorporation (204% of control), while $E_2$ plus IGF-I showed a slight but no significant synergistic effect. Cell number also displayed similar pattern. $E_2$ ($10^{-9}\;M$) significantly stimulated $P_i$ uptake to 134% of control. $E_2$-induced stimulation of $P_i$ uptake was partially reversed by $E_2$ antagonists. EGF or IGF-I ($10^{-8}\;M$) significantly also increased $P_i$ uptake to 132% or 129% of control. $E_2$ plus EGF had synergistic effect on $P_i$ uptake, while $E_2$ plus IGF-I did not. In conclusion, $E_2$ may act not only directly interaction with its receptors but also indirectly as a modulator of EGF in proliferation and $P_i$ uptake of primary cultured rabbit renal proximal tubular cells.

As a part of search for new biologically active constituents from aloe, we have isolated a glycopeptide, called G1G1M1DI2, from the gel(G1) of Aloe vera. Chemical and spectroscopic evidence indicated that G1G1M1DI2 is a glycopeptide. The molecular weight of G1G1M1DI2 was about 5,500 daltons, and the carbohydrate and protein contents were 20.9% and 32.6%, respectively. Periodate oxidation and enzymic degradation gave peptide moiety and carbohydrate moiety, respectively. Carbohydrate moiety is composed of fucose, galactose, glucose and mannose in a molar ratio of 0.5:2.4;48.8:48.3. Peptide moiety is composed of fifteen amino acids, and glutamic acid and glycine were the major componants. The glycopeptide, G1G1M1DI2, stimulated thymidine uptake of SCC 13 cells about 6.5 times the control. This result suggests that this glycopeptide has a skin cell proliferating activity.

The effect of the polyunsaterated fatty acids, linoleic acid(LA), arachidonic acid(AA) and conjugated dienoic linoleic acid(CLA) on IEC-6 cells (rat intestinal cell)proliferation and cell transduction have been determined in vitro. IEC-6 cells proliferation was assessed by cell growth and [3H]-thymidine incroporation analysis. At 10 μM concentration , the proliferationof cells supplemented with AA or LA was significantly higher than that of CLA. [3H]-thymidine uptake showed the same results. LA and AA increased [3H]-thymidine uptake more than CLA. The stimulatory effect of LA or AA was even more pronounced in the presence of IGF. Both cell number analysis and [3H]-thymidine incorporation revealed that IEC-6 cell proliferation was influenced differently by exogenous free fatty acids, in which AA or LA stimulated IEC-6 cell proliferation and CLA inhibited it. Tyorosine phosphorylation provides a key switch to regulate celluar acitivity in response to extracellular stimuli. At 20 μM and 10μM, AA with IGF-1 stimulated protein tyrosine phophorylation in IEC-6 cells, but LA's impact was less than that of AA. CLA and CLA with IGF-1 inhibited protein tyrosine phosphorylation in IEC-6 cells. These results suggest there is a possible correlation between cell proliferation and IGF receptor tyrosine knase activity driven by AA.

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.

Pyrimidine salvage과정 및 de novo 합성과정에 작용하는 억제제들이 Toxeplasma gondii의 특이한 uracil 도입 과정에 미치는 영향을 방사능을 표지한 uracil과 thymidine을 사용하여 검토하였다. Dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR)에 작용하는 억제제인 methotreBate, pyrimethamine 그리고 thymidylate synthase(75)의 경쟁적 억제제인 fluoro-uridine, fluoro-dUMP, fluoro-uracil을 각각 처리한 경우, 그 농도에 비례적으로 uracil 표지가 감소 하였다. OMP decarboxylase에 작용하는 억제제인 azauridine에 대해서는 100$\mu$M 농도 이상에서도 uracil 표지량에 변화가 거의 없었다. 본 결과로부터 Toxoplasma가 uracil을 DNA로 도입할 때 dihydrofolate reductase와 thymidylate synthase가 관여하는 TMP biosynthesis 과정이 중요함을 알 수 있었고, uracil salvage 과정이 있는 다른 기생성 원충의 경우와 비교했을 때 Toxoplasmn에 있어서도 효율적인 다기능의 DHFR-75 system의 존재를 예상할 수 있었다. Thymidine 도입의 양상은 모든 경우에 있어 HL-60세포만의 경우와 Toxoplasma가 함께 배양된 HL-60세포에서 차이가 없었다. 이로부터 thymidine은 Toxoplasmn 성장을 반영하지 않음을 알 수 있었다. Toxoplasma의 특이한 uracil 표지와 Toxoplasma에 배타적인 thymidine 표지는 기생원충과 숙주세포의 성장, DNA합성 정도 및 이들 과정에 미치는 제제들의 영향을 쉽고 간단하게 연구할 수 있는 방법이 된다.

This laboratory has recently reported the synthesis and in vitro antitumor activity of PT(II) complexes containing ethylenediamine and diphosphine. In view of the reports of others, cisplatin is toxic to the kidney since the kidney's vulnerability to PT(II) complexes may originate in its ability to accumulate and retain platinum to a greater degree than other organs. The in vitro cytotoxicity of these synthetic PT(II) complexes on the primary cultured proximal tubular cells of rabbit kidney and renal cortical cells of human kidney was investigated. Three endpoints for cytotoxicity tests were evaluated:3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT), $^3H$-thymidine uptake and the glucose consumption tests. The rank order of sensitivity exhibited $^3H$-thymidine uptake>MTT>glucose consumption test. The agents with diphosphine leaving group were significantly less cytotoxic than cisplatin. Moreover, 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane (DPPE) exhibited less cytotoxicity than 1.3-bis (diphenylphosphino)propane (DPPP) against on rabbit and human cultured kidney cells. Based on these results, the decreased nephrotoxicity of these new complexes over cisplatin appeared to be partially attributable to a leaving group of DPPP and DPPE. This novel class of platinum compound represents a valuable lead in the development of a "third-generation" agent.

Lipocortin 1 has been proposed as a putative mediator of anti-inflammatory actions of glucocorticoids. We investigated the role of lipocortin 1 in the effect of dexamethasone using rat splenic leukocytes. Concanavalin A(ConA; 1 ${\mu}g/ml$) increased the leukocyte proliferation and nitric oxide(NO) generation, which were measured as $[^3H]-thymidine$ uptake by the cells and nitrite accumulation in the culture media, respectively. Dexamethasone suppressed ConA-induced cell proliferation, in a concentration-dependent manner with $EC_{50}$ around 50nM. The addition of anti-lipocortin l(Anti-LCl) reversed dexamethasone effects: 0.24, 1.2, 6 ${\mu}g/ml$ of Anti-LC1 reversed dexamethasone(50 nM)-induced suppression of thymidine uptake by $9{\pm}3%$, $16{\pm}3%$, $36{\pm}5%$, respectively; 0.24, 1.2, and 6 ${\mu}g/ml$ of Anti-LCI reversed dexa-methasone-induced decrease of nitrite concentration by $49{\pm}16%$, $61{\pm}20%$, $77{\pm}19%$, respectively. The present data indicate that lipocortin 1 mediates, at least in part, glucocorticoids-induced suppression of leukocyte proliferation and blockade of NO generation.

Progesterone은 배양중인 생쥐 초기배아의 난할을 억제하는 효과를 나타내고 있는데 이의 기작을 밝히기 위하여 이 호르몬이 배아 세포들의 각종 대사작용에 미치는 영향을 조사하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. Progesterone은 배아의 아미노산 흡수능 (uptake)을 증가시키었으나 동화능 (incorporation)을 연저히 감소시켰다. 2. Progesterone은 핵산 전구물질들 (uridine과 thymidine)의 흡수능과 동화능을 모두 저하시켰다. 본 실험의 결과로 미루어 Progesterone은 배아 세포들의 단백질, RNA 그리고 DNA 등의 고분자화합물의 합성을 저해하여 배아의 난할을 억제하는 것으로 보이며 배아 세포들의 투과성의 변화와는 직접 관련이 없는 것으로 사료된다.
