        In this experiment, we determined the effect of curcumin supplementation in freezing buffer for miniature pig sperm cryopreservation. Each ejaculate was diluted with modified Modena B extender and mixed with lactose-egg yolk (LEY extender, 80% v/v lactose solution [310 mM], 20% v/v egg yolk, and100 μg/mL kanamycin sulfate) and LEY-glycerol Orvus ES Paste (LEYGO, 89.5% v/v LEY, 5% v/v glycerol, 1.5% v/v Orvus ES Paste), 100 mM trehalose supplemented with 0, 10, 50, 100, and 500 μM of curcumin from turmeric, respectively. Following equilibration, the 0.5 mL French straws were frozen and plunged into LN2 tank for 7 days at least. Sperm parameter and oxidative byproducts were determined by the computer assisted sperm motility analysis (CASA) and fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) as compared with each groups.Supplementation of curcumin had no effect on sperm motility, progressive motility and curvilinear velocity. However, average-path velocity and straight-line velocity were significantly higher in 10 μM curcumin group (100.9±8.8 μm/s, 61.7±2.9 μm/s, respectively) than control group (77.8±3.9 μm/s, 46.4±3.0 μm/s, respectively) (p < 0.05). In addition, the level of the O2 radical and H2O2 were comparatively decreased in curcumin groups by evaluation of ethidium and DCF fluorescence. According to the results, curcumin can improve sperm kinetic variables and alleviate ROS induced cryoinjury to pig sperm.

        곤충의 혈액순환은 심장 박동에 의해 도움을 받는다. 다양한 생리적 변화는 심장 박동 조절을 수반하게 된다. 심장박동에 대한 교란은 곤충 의 생존을 위협하게 된다. 본 연구는 활성산소를 유발하여 살충력을 발휘하는 이산화염소가 혈액순환계에 미치는 영향을 심장박동을 통해 분석하 였다. 화랑곡나방(Plodia interpunctella) 유충의 등핏줄은 몸의 윗면 중앙에 위치하고 후방으로 복부 10번째 마디에서 시작하여 전방으로 첫 번째 가슴 마디까지 연결된 관 구조를 나타냈다. 등핏줄의 수축과 이완은 주로 복부 3-10번째 마디에 위치한 등핏줄에서 일어났으며 이 부위에 5개의 심실이 관찰되었다. 심장박동빈도는 25°C에서 분당 평균 118.6회의 수축 리듬을 보였다. 그러나 온도에 따라 심장박동빈도는 현격한 변화를 보 였다. 혈강에 이산화염소를 다양한 농도로 투여한 경우 심장박동빈도는 약제 농도 증가에 따라 감소하였다. 이산화염소(100 ppm)을 훈증 처리할 경우 노출 시간의 경과에 따라 심장박동리듬이 현격하게 감소하였다. 이러한 이산화염소의 심장박동 억제효과는 활성산소 저해제인 비타민 E와 함께 주입할 경우 회복되는 현상을 나타냈다. 이상의 결과는 이산화염소가 화랑곡나방의 심장박동에 억제효과를 주었으며 이러한 억제효과는 이 물질이 유발하는 활성산소에 기인된 것으로 해석된다.

        Reactive oxygen species (ROS) can be produced by interactions between sunlight and light-absorbing substances in natural water environments and can completely destroy various organic pollutants in waste water. In this study, we used graphene oxide modified Ag2Se nanoparticles to enhance photochemically generated oxygen (PGO) species activity. Surface area and pore volumes of the Ag2Se-graphene (Ag2Se-G) samples showed catastrophic decrease due to deposition of Ag2Se. The generation of reactive oxygen species was detected through the oxidation reaction of DPCI to DPCO. The photocurrent density and the PGO effect increase in the case of the use of modified graphene. The PGO effect of the graphene modified with Ag2Se composites increased significantly due to a synergetic effect between graphene and the Ag2Se nanoparticles. The photocatalytic activity of sample was evaluated by measuring the degradation of organic pollutants such as methylene blue (MB) and industrial dyes such as Texbrite BA-L (TBA) under visible light.

        Through density functional theory calculations, to provide insight into the origins of the catalytic activity of Au nanoparticles (NPs) toward oxidation reactions, we have scrutinized the oxygen adsorption chemistry of 9 types of small unsupported Au NPs of around 1 nm in size (Au13, Au19, Au20, Au25, Au38, and Au55) looking at several factors (size, shape, and coordination number). We found that these NPs, except for the icosahedral Au13, do not strongly bind to O2 molecules. Energetically most feasible O2 adsorption that potentially provides high CO oxidation activity is observed in the icosahedral Au13, our smallest Au NP. In spite of the chemical inertness of bulk Au, the structural fluxionality of such very small Au NP enables strong O2 adsorption. Our results can support recent experimental findings that the exceptional catalytic activity of Au NPs comes from very small Au species consisting of around 10 atoms each.

        The present study was aimed to determine the effect of green tea extract (GTE) and beta-mercaptoethanol (β-ME) supplementation in boar sperm freezing extender on sperm motility, viability and reactive oxygen species (ROS) level. Experimental groups were allocated into Lactose-egg yolk (LEY) without antioxidant (control), GTE (1,000 mg/L GTE in LEY) and β-ME (50 μM β-ME in LEY). Spermatozoa extended with LEY were cooled to 5°C for 3 h and then kept at 5°C for 30 min following dilution with LEY containing 9% glycerol and 1.5% Equex STM (final sperm concentration: 1 × 108/mL). Spermatozoa were loaded into straws and frozen in nitrogen vapor for 20 min. Following thawing at 37°C for 25 sec, sperm viability and ROS level were measured using fluorescent double stain Fertility® and cytometry, respectively. Motility and viability of GTE supplemented-group were higher than those of control and β-ME without significance. ROS level in GTE group showed significantly lower than control (P < 0.05). In conclusion, GTE supplementation in boar sperm freezing extender can reduce ROS generation during freezing.

        The oocyte undergoes various events during In vitro maturation (IVM) and subsequence development. One of the events is production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that is a normal process of cell metabolism. But imbalances between ROS production and antioxidant systems induce oxidative stress that negatively affect to mammalian reproductive process. In vitro environments, In vitro matured oocytes have many problems, such as excessive production of ROS and imperfect cytoplasmic maturation. Therefore, In vitro matured oocytes still have lower maturation rates and developmental competence than in vivo matured oocytes. In order to improve the IVM and In vitro culture (IVC) system, antioxidants, vitamins were added to the IVM, IVC medium. Antioxidant supplementation was effective in controlling the production of ROS and it continues to be explored as a potential strategy to overcome mammalian reproductive disorders. Based on these studies, we expect that the use of antioxidants in porcine oocytes could improved maturation and development rates.

        Inhibition of Rho-associated coiled coil-containing kinase (ROCK) has been reported to promote differentiation of neuronal cells. Here, we examined the effect of Y-27632, a ROCK inhibitor, on the outgrowth of neurites in PC12 cells. Y-27632 caused a rapid induction of neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells in a time-dependent manner. The neurite outgrowth, triggered by Y-27632, was accompanied by Rac1 activation, and was attenuated by Rac1 inhibitor NSC23766, in a concentration-dependent manner. Y-27632 also induced an increase in the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Pretreatment with N-acetylcysteine, an ROS scavenger, inhibited the ROS generation and neurite outgrowth in response to Y-27632. These results indicate that the activation of Rac1 and the generation of ROS contribute to the neurite outgrowth triggered by Y-27632 in PC12 cells.

        N-doped carbon nanofibers as catalysts for oxygen-reduction reactions are synthesized using electrospinning and carbonization. Their morphologies, structures, chemical bonding states, and electrochemical performance are characterized. The optimized N-doped carbon nanofibers exhibit graphitization of carbon nanofibers and an increased nitrogen doping as well as a uniform network structure. In particular, the optimized N-doped carbon nanofibers show outstanding catalytic activity for oxygen-reduction reactions, such as a half-wave potential (E1/2) of 0.43 V, kinetic limiting current density of 6.2 mA cm-2, electron reduction pathways (n = 3.1), and excellent long-term stability after 2000 cycles, resulting in a lower E1/2 potential degradation of 13 mV. The improvement in the electrochemical performance results from the synergistic effect of the graphitization of carbon nanofibers and the increased amount of nitrogen doping.

        We determined the effects of different water temperatures (15, 20, and 25℃) and photoperiod cycles (24L:0D, 12L:12D, and 0L:24D) on the oxygen consumption of the offspring of a cultured Japanese strain (JJ), a selected Korean strain (KK), and intraspecific hybrid strains (JK and KJ) of red seabream, Pagrus major, under starvation conditions. The different fish strains, water temperatures, and photoperiod cycles had effects on the mean oxygen consumption of fish. Oxygen consumption increased with increasing water temperatures for all photoperiod treatments (p <0.001). Fish held in continuous darkness (0L:24D) used consistently less oxygen than fish exposed to continuous light (p <0.05). The oxygen consumption of fish exposed to the light phase in a 12L:12D photoperiod was higher than that of fish in the dark phase of the 12L:12D cycle, and differences were significant in three of the strains: JJ (15℃), KK (15 and 20℃), and KJ (25℃). The oxygen consumption of the inbred (JJ and KK) and intraspecific hybrid (JK and KJ) strains varied with differing water temperatures and photoperiod cycles. The JK strain displayed significantly higher oxygen consumption than the other strains under all experimental conditions except 15℃ with a 0L:24D photoperiod. The JK and KJ strains usually showed the highest and lowest oxygen consumption values, respectively, whereas the inbred strains exhibited intermediate values. Oxygen consumption in the JJ and JK strains was usually higher than that of the KK and KJ strains. We propose that differences in the thermal sensitivity and photosensitization properties of the strains contribute to differences in their ability to adapt to changes in water temperature and photoperiod, thus resulting in differences in the amplitude of their metabolic rates.

        The plastic monomer bisphenol A (BPA) is well known as a representative environmental hormones. Recent studies showed that the BPA exposure induced mitochondrial dysfunction and mitochondrial derived reactive oxygen species (mito-ROS). However, changes of antioxidant enzymes expression and ROS production from mitochondria according to the BPA exposure on in vitro maturation (IVM) of porcine oocytes have not been studied. We hypothesized that regulation of ROS production from mitochondria by BPA may play a critical role in meiotic maturation or expansion of cumulus cells in cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs). To investigate the negative effects of BPA exposure on oocyte maturation, immature pig oocytes were matured in NCSU-23 medium supplemented with BPA (50, 75 and 100 μM) for 44 h. Expectedly, the rates of meiotic maturation and cumulus cell expansion of COCs in the BPA (75 μM) treated group was significantly lower than those of control group (p<0.01). Most of secretion factors expressions from COCs were significantly decreased (p<0.05) in the BPA treated COCs. Next, we investigated the intracellular ROS and mitochondrial specific superoxide production according to the BPA exposure using DCF-DA and mito-SOX staining, respectively. BPA exposure were showed that increasing of both intracellular ROS and mito-ROS, as well as mitochondrial related antioxidant enzymes (sod2, prdx3, prdx5) mRNA expression significantly increased (p<0.01) in COCs. And then, mitochondria membrane potential (MMP) dramatically reduced, and mitochondrial-derived apoptotic factors (bax, bcl-xl, caspase 3) mRNA expressions were increased (p<0.01) in BPA treated COCs. In additon, protein levels of mitochondrial-derived apoptosis genes (AIF, cleaved parp1 and caspase 3) were significantly increased (p<0.05) by BPA exposure. To confirm the reduction of BPA-induced mito-ROS, we used to the mitochondrial-targeted ROS scavenger, mito-TEMPO. Interestingly, addition of mito-TEMPO (0.1 μM) to the BPA pre-treated COCs recovered in meiotic maturation of porcine oocytes. These results demonstrated that BPA exposure was induced increasing of mitochondrial dysfunction, mito-ROS and mitochondrial-mediated apoptosis on pig oocyte maturation. Therefore, we suggest that controlling of mito-ROS plays a critical role in pig oocyte maturation in vitro. These findings will be helpful to solve causes of mitochondrial-related infertility.

        Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and nitrogen species (RNS) are both important signaling molecules involved in pain transmission in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord. Xanthine oxidase (XO) is a well-known enzyme for the generation of superoxide anions (O2 ⦁-), while S-nitroso-N-acetyl-DLpenicillamine (SNAP) is a representative nitric oxide (NO) donor. In this study, we used patch clamp recording in spinal slices of rats to investigate the effects of O2 ⦁- and NO on the excitability of substantia gelatinosa (SG) neurons. We also used confocal scanning laser microscopy to measure XO- and SNAP-induced ROS and RNS production in live slices. We observed that the ROS level increased during the perfusion of xanthine and xanthine oxidase (X/XO) compound and SNAP after the loading of 2′,7′-dichlorofluorescin diacetate (H2DCF-DA), which is an indicator of intracellular ROS and RNS. Application of ROS donors such as X/XO, β -nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), and 3-morpholinosydnomimine (SIN-1) induced a membrane depolarization and inward currents. SNAP, an RNS donor, also induced membrane depolarization and inward currents. X/XO-induced inward currents were significantly decreased by pretreatment with phenyl N-tert-butylnitrone (PBN; nonspecific ROS and RNS scavenger) and manganese(III) tetrakis(4-benzoic acid) porphyrin (MnTBAP; superoxide dismutase mimetics). Nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (NAME; NO scavenger) also slightly decreased X/XO-induced inward currents, suggesting that X/XO-induced responses can be involved in the generation of peroxynitrite (ONOO-). Our data suggest that elevated ROS, especially O2 ⦁-, NO and ONOO-, in the spinal cord can increase the excitability of the SG neurons related to pain transmission.

        이산화염소는 살충효과를 지니며, 이는 이 물질이 발생시키는 활성산소에 기인된다. 살충효과를 주는 주요 원인으로 이산화염소의 세포독 성에 주목하고 있다. 본 연구는 이산화염소가 유발하는 세포독성이 활성산소에 기인한 아폽토시스 유발로 가설을 세우고 이를 검증하였다. 화랑 곡나방(Plodia interpunctella) 유충에 이산화염소를 주입한 결과 전체혈구수의 뚜렷한 감소를 보였고, 이후 처리 유충은 사망하였다. 아폽토시스 세포치사과정을 규명하기 위해 TUNEL (terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase nick end translation) 분석법을 적용하였다. 곤충 세포주의 하나인 Sf9 세포에 서로 다른 이산화염소를 처리하고 TUNEL 분석법으로 관찰한 결과 처리 농도에 비례하여 아폽토시스 비율이 증가하였다. 다 음으로 서로 다른 농도의 이산화염소를 화랑곡나방 유충에 주입하고 혈구 세포를 TUNEL 분석법으로 관찰한 결과 이산화염소는 처리 농도에 비례하여 아폽토시스 유발을 나타냈다. 그러나 항산화제인 비타민 E를 이산화염소와 함께 처리하면 비타민 E의 농도에 비례하여 이산화염소의 아폽토시스 유발을 억제하고 이에 따라 살충률도 감소하였다. 이러한 결과는 이산화염소에 기인한 세포독성은 활성산소에 기인한 아폽토시스 유 발로 이뤄졌다는 것을 제시하고 있다.

        High oxygen permeability and structural stability are required in the presence of high concentrations of CO2 for application of oxygen transport membrane in the oxy-fuel combustion process. MIEC membranes based on alkaline earth metal such as Ba0.5Sr0.5Co0.8Fe0.2O3-δ have low CO2 stability. Carbonates were formed over the surface of membranes including alkaline earth metal in the presence of CO2 and oxygen permeation fluxes are deteriorated. In this work, dense dual-phase hollow fiber membranes were prepared by a phase inversion spinning and sintering process. The oxygen permeation fluxes of dual-phase hollow fiber membrane were evaluated at various temperatures.

        하수슬러지와 같이 수분이 많이 함유된 폐기물 소각에 있어 순산소 연소기술은 공기 중의 질소를 배제하므로 장치의 크기를 줄일 수 있고 NOX의 배출을 줄 일 수 있는 고효율 연소 기술이다. 순산소 연소는 고효율 연소의 장점은 있으나 산소 제조 비용이 고가라는 문제점이 대두되어 왔다. 최근 저가 산소를 제조하기 위한 이온전도성 분리막 및 모듈이 개발되었고, 이를 소각로의 배열을 이용하여 운전한다면 산소제조 비용을 낮출 수 있는 장점이 있지만 장시간 대기 중의 CO2 노출 시 분리막 표면에 탄산염이 형성되어 성능이 저하됨을 확인되었다. 본 연구에서는 소각로에 순산소를 공급하고 고농도의 CO2를 sweep gas로 활 용하여 이온전도성 산소 분리막을 운영할 수 있도록 CO2 내성을 갖는 중공사막을 개발하였다.
