Two cases of leukemia cutis associated with leukemia has been demonstrated. Case 1: 24 year old man had been fever, arthralgia and leproma like hard infiltrated nodular lesion with hemorrhagic macules was noted on face and upper arms and trunk, Monocytic Jeukemia has been presented. In peripheral blood and bone marrow finding, immature blood cells was counted in about 80%, Case 2: 64 yearold woman, had been erythematous papule with itching on lower extremities and coin ized ulcerated nodule was noted on lumbosacral region. Myeloid leukemia has been presented. In peripheral blood and bone marrow finding, immature blood cells was counted in about 7.2%. Diagnosis of cutaneous lesions was by clinical apperance and histopathological change. By laboratory examination, monocytic leukemia and myeloid leukemia was revealed in peripheral blood and bone marrow preparation.

The proteins, especially the 19S globulin (IgM) and 7S globulin (IgA) in the CO2 snow-induced blister fluids of 10 male healty volunteers were analyzed immunoelectrophoretically. The fnllawing results were obtained. 1) Compared with autologous serum, all blister fluids tested lacked some protein fraction lines. 2) The 19S globulin (lgM) line was absent in all of the blister fluids except one which was contaminated with blood. 3) The 7S globulin (IgA) line was present in all of the blister fluids when undiluted. In 1 : 2 dilution, however, it was absent, or of trace amount in a few cases.

Several immunosuppressive agents were used to prolong the survival of full-thickries skin homografts in albino rats. The grafts were squares in size of 2.0cm. The results were as follows. 1. The mean survival time of skin homografts in control group was 6.0 days. 2. Total body X-irradiation (500r) to the recipients 24 hours before grafting resulted in prolongation of survival of the grafts. (Mean, 12.5 days) 3. Administration of Imuran(azathioprine) to the recipients in a does of 5mg/kg/day for 7 days. before grafting resulted in prolongation of survival of the grafts. (Mean, 9. 6 days) 4. Spleneetomized homografted rats showed no prolongation of survival of the grafts. (Mean, 6.1days) 5. Administration of prednisolone to the recipients in a does of 2mg/kg/day for 7 days before grafting resulted in no prolongation of survival of the grafts. (Mean, 6.3 days) 6. Above results were discussed and compared with those of others.

Reversible posterior leukonecephalopathy syndrome RPLS), a neurologie disorder associated with evidence of posterior cerebral edema on neuroimaging studies, has been described in both adults and children. Conditions predisposing to RPLS include malignant hypertension, renal dysfunction, toxemia of pregnancy, interferon therapy, and the use of immunosuppressive agents. When associated with acute hypertension, RPLS typically occurs concurrently with the fulminant clinical syndrome of hypertensive encephalopathy We describe occipital lobe seizures, in the setting of only moderate elevations of blood pressure, as the major clinical manifestation of RPLS.

Xeroderma pigmentosum, a rare, genetically determined dermatosis, is often cornplicated by malignant chagnes of various types-most commonly, basal-cell epithelioma, squamous cell epithelioma, less frequently malignant meIanoma, keratoacanthoma, fibrosarcoma, and endothelioma have been reported. In Korea, no case has ever been reported in literature except four cases at a symposium for dermatology, two of them complicated by basal-cell epithelioma, and the others by squamous cell epithelioma. This case reported was complicated by squamous cell epithelioma. As one of the anticancer treatments, especially for skin cancer, Bleomycin is, now, drawing the attention for its high therapeutic index with only few side effects. For this case, we injected Rleomycin 15mg at once, twice a week, for 8 weeks, So total injection was 16 times and 240mg of Bleomycin was given in total. While this amount given for this case was not enough for the complete treatment of squamous cell epithelioma, we got the following results: 1. Clinically, the ulcerated lesion of the cancer on the right ala nasi had shrunken in size with reepithelialization at the margin showing clear surface, and 2. microscopically, the atypical cancer cell masses and individual cell keratinizations had been decreased in size and in number, and less remarkable comparing to those in untreated stage at his first visit to the hospital.

With development of immunochemical methods for anlysis of serum proteins, quantitative determination of serum immunoglobulin levels and purification of them have been made possible in recent years. There are numerous reports about immunoglobulin levels in various diseases. A search of the literature reveals very few reports of quantitative immunoglobulin determinations in allergic dermatoses. The present study was conducted to find quantitative changes of serum immunoglobulins in a few allergic dermatoses. To quantify the IgG, IgA and IgM, one hundred and two sera were analysed form 30 normal control group, 30 contact dermatitis patients, 12 stopic dermatitis patients and 30 urticaria patients by modified Oudin's capillary tube method. The results are as follows. 1.In contact dermatitis the IgG was significantly increased to compare with control group(p<0.01) 2.In atopic dermatitis the IgA was significantly increased to compare with control group(p<0.01) 3.In urticaria the IgG was increased (p<0.05) 4.The IgM has no differences between allergic dermatoses and control group.

The present study was to assess the effect of ultrarapid freezing on the development of 1-cell mouse zygote using cryoprotectants, DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide) or PROH (1,2-propanediol). We investigated the effect of the type and concentration of cryoprotectant, and of the temperature and time of prefreezing equilibration on their capacity to develop to the blastocyst stage in vitro. The concenration, the equilibration temperature, and the exposure time seemed to serve as an important factor in ultrarapid freezing of 1-cell mouse zygotes. In addition to the exposure time and the concentration of cryoprotectant appeared to play a key role in the development of the embryo. In general, the development of the embryo was more effective at 3degrees C than 23degrees C and 4.5 M than 3 M for 3 to 5 minutes. At 23degrees C the development of the embryo was stimulated by DMSO while at 3degrees C it was stimulated by PROH. Thus it has been suggested that there exists a correlation between the concentration of cryoprotectants and exposure time in the development of the embryo. In conclusion, we found that for ultrarapid freezing of mouse 1-cell embryos in DMSO, or PROH-based solution, viability shown optimum depending on the cryoprotectant, the concentration of the cryoprotectant and on the temperature and the duration of equilibration.
