    Abstract The amplitude reflectivity spectrum and the associated finesse of a microcavity with quarter-wave dielectric mirrors have been theoretically analysed. Triangular-shaped antiresonances were obtained when the radius of the incident beam was not much larger than a wavelength. This was due to the dispersion caused by high spatial frequency components of the incident beam. The dispersion resulted in an increase of the width of the high-transmission region, and therefore greatly degraded the finesse of the cavity.

    Abstract. Objective and Design: We investigated the effect of a new class of COX-2 inhibitor, rutaecarpine, on the production of PGD2 in bone marrow derived mast cells (BMMC) and PGE2 in COX-2 transfected HEK293 cells. Inflammation was induced by γ-carrageenan in male Splague-Dawley (SD) rats.¶Material: Rutaecarpine (8,13-Dihydroindolo[2',3':3,4]pyridol[2,1-b]quinazolin-5(7H)-one) was isolated from the fruits of Evodia rutaecarpa. BMMC were cultured with WEHI-3 conditioned medium. c-Kit ligand and IL-10 were obtained by their expression in baculovirus.¶Methods: The generation of PGD2 and PGE2 were determined by their assay kit. COX-1 and COX-2 protein and mRNA expression was determined by BMMC in the presence of KL, LPS and IL-10.¶Treatment: Rutaecarpine and indomethacin dissolved in 0.1% carboxymethyl cellulose was administered intraperitoneally and, 1h later, γ-carrageenan solution was injected to right hind paw of rats. Paw volumes were measured using plethysmometer 5h after γ-carrageenan injection.¶Results: Rutaecarpine inhibited COX-2 and COX-1 dependent phases of PGD2 generation in BMMC in a concentration-dependent manner with an IC50 of 0.28 μM and 8.7 μM, respectively. It inhibited COX-2-dependent conversion of exogenous arachidonic acid to PGE2 in a dose-dependent manner by the COX-2-transfected HEK293 cells. However, rutaecarpine inhibited neither PLA2 and COX-1 activity nor COX-2 protein and mRNA expression up to the concentration of 30 μM in BMMC, indicating that rutaecarpine directly inhibited COX-2 activity. Furthermore, rutaecarpine showed in vivo anti-inflammatory activity on rat γ-carrageenan induced paw edema by intraperitoneal administration.¶Conclusion: Anti-inflammatory activity of Evodia rutaecarpa could be attributed at least in part by inhibition of COS-2.

    Notes:
    Abstract Objective and Design: Several kinds of flavonoids, widely distributed natural products of the vegetable kingdom which possess anti-inflammatory activity, were examined for inhibitory effects on the acetyl-CoA: 1-alkyl-2-lyso-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (lysoPAF) acetyltransferase activity. Methods: Acetyl-CoA:lysoPAF acetyltransferase activity was determined using homogenates of a rat mucosal-type mastcytoma cell line, RBL-2H3 as an enzyme source. The production of platelet-activating factor (PAF) in rat peripheral white blood cells stimulated with the calcium ionophore A23187 was studied. Results: Of the flavonoids tested, luteolin and quercetin exhibited significant inhibitory effects (IC50, 45μM and 80μM, respectively), whereas other structurally-related flavonoids failed to affect the lysoPAF acetyltransferase activity. Luteolin did not suppress the activity of choline acetyltransferase, suggesting that the inhibition observed here was specific. Luteolin also inhibited the production of PAF in rat peripheral white blood cells. Conclusions: These results indicate that luteolin could become a leading compound for developing a novel type of anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic drugs that target lysoPAF acetyltransferase.

    Notes:
    Abstract  The Nanjido Landfill is the largest uncontrolled landfill in Korea and it causes various kinds of environmental problems. Landfill gases and leachate are recognized as the most serious environmental problems associated with the landfill. This study employs a series of numerical models and uses test data to interpret the distribution and flow of landfill gases and leachate. Leachate seepage appears about 40–60 m higher than the estimated basal groundwater table. Thus, seepage data indicate that perched or floating leachate layers are formed in the unsaturated zone of the landfill. The leachate production rate is estimated using infiltration test data and a model for unsaturated groundwater flow. Geochemical data indicate that the landfill leachate degrades the basal groundwater quality along the downgradient zone. The environmental impact of the leachate on river water is estimated.

    Notes:
    Abstract Two young boys were referred for evaluation of metabolic myopathy because of elevated serum levels of creatine kinase, cramps and pigmenturia. Immunohistochemical studies of dystrophin in muscle biopsies showed reduced intensity of the stain with a patchy and discontinous pattern in most fibers. In both patients dystrophin was undetectable by immunoblotting. DNA analysis of the dystrophin gene was not informative in one patient; in the other it revealed an in-frame deletion comprising exons 3–6. These observations suggest that the two patients are affected with an unusual phenotype of Becker muscular dystrophy. Dystrophin analysis should be included in the evaluation of patients with childhood-onset of recurrent myoglobinuria.

    Abstract A new class of compressible elastic solids, which includes the Blatz-Ko material as a special case, is proposed. A closed-form solution is constructed and studied for a bifurcation problem modeling void formation in this class of compressible elastic solids. The relation between the void-formation condition and the material parameters is obtained analytically. An energy comparison of the void-formation deformation and the homogeneous expansion deformation is carried out.
