3.Aural Fullness.
Korean Journal of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery 2012;55(2):76-84
Aural fullness is common in patients that visit otolaryngology clinics. It is necessary to examine their detailed medical history, have a physical examination and include additional appropriate studies in order to make an accurate diagnosis for patients who complain about aural fullness. Physicians should have extensive knowledge about diseases which can cause aural fullness. In this paper, the author will introduce an appropriate approach to aural fullness and review typical diseases associated with aural fullness.

6.Presbycusis.
Sang Hoon KIM ; Seung Geun YEO
Hanyang Medical Reviews 2015;35(2):78-83
Presbycusis is gradual hearing loss in both ears that commonly occurs as people age. Presbycusis is a complex phenomenon characterized by audiometric threshold shift, deterioration in speech-understanding and speech-perception difficulties in a noisy environment. Factors contributing to presbycusis include mitochondria DNA mutation, genetic disorders, hypertension, diabetes, metabolic disease and other systemic diseases in the intrinsic aspects. Extrinsic factors include noise, ototoxic medication and diet. However, presbycusis may not be related to the intrinsic and extrinsic factors separately. Presbycusis can greatly affect one's quality of life; impaired hearing restricts communication and untreated presbycusis could result in social isolation and even depression. Current amplification methods related to auditory rehabilitation can provide improved communication ability to users. Nevertheless, only a minority of elderly people with impaired hearing use hearing aids. The purpose of this review is to raise the awareness of presbycusis, to update our current understanding of presbycusis with a focus on age-related deficits in auditory and cognitive processing of speech and to explore strategies of prevention, identification, amplification, and aural rehabilitation. The ultimate goal is to improve the quality of hearing health care and the overall quality of life of older adults.

BACKGROUND: B cell subset has been divided into B-1 cells and B-2 cells. B-1 cells are found most prominently in the peritoneal cavity, as well as constituting a small proportion of splenic B cells and they are larger and less dense than B-2 cells in morphology. This study was designed to compare the differences in their proliferation and differentiation between B-1 and B-2 cell. METHODS: We obtained sorted B-1 cells from peritoneal fluid and B-2 cells from spleens of mice. Secreted IgM was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Entering of S phase in response to LPS-stimuli was measured by proliferative assay. Cell cycle analysis by propidium iodide was performed. p21 expression was assessed by real time PCR. RESULTS: Cell proliferation and cell cycle progression in B-1 and B-2 cells, which did not occur in the absence of LPS, required LPS stimulation. After LPS stimulation, B-1 and B-2 cells were shifted to S and G2/M phases. p21 expression by resting B-1 cells was higher than that of resting B-2 cells. CONCLUSION: B-1 cells differ from conventional B-2 cells in proliferation, differentiation and cell cycle.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluated whether clusterin over-expression is significantly correlated with paclitaxel resistance in ovarian cancer cell lines. METHODS: Clusterin was validated by performing expression profiling analysis and subsequently, the correlation between clusterin mRNA expression levels and the IC50 of paclitaxel was tested. Transfection of clusterin was performed on SKOV3, which expressed paclitaxel-sensitivity and low level of clusterin, and transfection of clusterin siRNA on PEOH, which expressed paclitaxel-resistance and high level of clusterin, to evaluate their effect on chemo-sensitivity, apoptosis, and cell cycle by XTT assay, cell death ELISA, and flow cytometry, respectively. RESULTS: Clusterin mRNA and protein expression levels were significantly correlated with paclitaxel resistance (P<0.001). Transfection of cluterin on SKOV3 significantly decreased apoptosis and increased paclitaxel resistance. And transfection of clusterin siRNA on PEOH significantly increased paclitaxel-sensitivity (P<0.05), and shifted cells from S to G2/M phase of the cell cycle after paclitaxel treatment. CONCLUSION: These findings suggested that clusterin overexpression confers paclitaxel-resistance by the modulation of the apoptotic pathway and cell cycle progression in ovarian cancer cells.

10.Aging.
Dong Choon PARK ; Seung Geun YEO
Korean Journal of Audiology 2013;17(2):39-44
Aging is initiated based on genetic and environmental factors that operate from the time of birth of organisms. Aging induces physiological phenomena such as reduction of cell counts, deterioration of tissue proteins, tissue atrophy, a decrease of the metabolic rate, reduction of body fluids, and calcium metabolism abnormalities, with final progression onto pathological aging. Despite the efforts from many researchers, the progression and the mechanisms of aging are not clearly understood yet. Therefore, the authors would like to introduce several theories which have gained attentions among the published theories up to date; genetic program theory, wear-and-tear theory, telomere theory, endocrine theory, DNA damage hypothesis, error catastrophe theory, the rate of living theory, mitochondrial theory, and free radical theory. Although there have been many studies that have tried to prevent aging and prolong life, here we introduce a couple of theories which have been proven more or less; food, exercise, and diet restriction.
