摘要:
Disclosed herein is a skin external composition for inhibiting epidermal hyperproliferation and alleviating inflammatory skin diseases, which contains ortho-dihydroxyisoflavone derivatives as an active ingredient. Specifically, the skin external external composition contains the ortho-dihydroxyisoflavone derivatives, 4′,6,7-trihydroxyisoflavone, 3′,4′,7-trihydroxyisoflavone or a mixture thereof, and thus increases the expression of DKK3 protein and FZD1 protein, which appropriately control Wnt signaling, thereby inhibiting epidermal hyperproliferation and alleviating inflammatory skin diseases caused by epidermal hyperproliferation.

A method of screening a material for improving skin functions includes: (a) treating a skin cell with a candidate material; (b) detecting a change in a relative expression level of membrane-associated protein 17 (MAP17) gene; and (c) selecting a candidate material inducing the change in the expression level of the gene as a material for improving skin functions.That is to say, a material for improving skin functions is screened using MAP17 gene as a marker, on the basis of the change in the expression level of the MAP17 gene. A material for improving skin functions, which is useful in improving skin barrier function, promoting skin moisturization, preventing skin aging, or ameliorating skin troubles, may be effectively screened.

A method for preventing malfunction of a mobile communication terminal when a headset is used is provided. The method includes detecting an ON state of a hook switch according to pre-set options and outputting a first detect signal. The method further includes determining that a headset has been inserted into the mobile communication terminal and outputting a second detect signal.

The downregulation of PRP 19 (precursor RNA processing 19) protein expression results in effectively reducing the expression of SCD1 (stearyl CoA desaturase-1), the key lipogenic enzyme, and its down-stream triacylglycerol synthesis enzymes, DGAT-1 (diacyglycerol acyltransferase-1) and GPAT (glycerol-phosphate acyltransferase), as well as the intracellular content of neutral lipids, the major target for treating obesity.

An apparatus for forming a thin film using microwave and a method therefor are provided. The apparatus for forming a thin film on a wafer by densifying predetermined soot on a wafer, when the wafer and the soot form a sample, includes a microwave sintering furnace for sealing the sample and exposing the sample to microwave, thus sintering the sample, a sintering furnace atmosphere maker for controlling the state, being the atmosphere of air inside the microwave sintering furnace, a temperature sensor/controller for sensing a temperature inside the microwave sintering furnace, comparing the temperature with a predetermined reference temperature, and outputting an error temperature, and a microwave power source for generating microwave of a predetermined temperature with reference to the error temperature output from the temperature sensor/controller and applying the microwave to the microwave sintering furnace. It is possible to rapidly form a film of a fine and uniform structure by densification using microwave.

A Ge--Ga--S-based glass composition having light amplifying characteristics and an apparatus for optical communications using the glass composition are provided. The present invention includes a sulfur-poor Ge--Ga--S based host glass which includes less S than compositions on the composition line of GeS.sub.2 --G.sub.2 S.sub.3 on the ternary phase diagram of Ge--Ga--S, and a rare earth active material doped on the host glass for luminescence and light amplification. Ga of no more than about 10 mol % is included in the host glass. Also, Pr.sup.3+ ions are used as the rare earth active material. Furthermore, for stable vitrification and a blue shift of a short wavelength absorption band, a vitrification stabilizer such as Br and I is added to the host glass. Also, the present invention includes an apparatus for performing optical communications such as a light amplifier using optical fiber comprised of the glass composition including the S-poor Ge--Ga--S host glass which includes less S than a glass on a composition line of GeS.sub.2 --Ga.sub.2 S.sub.3 and the rare earth active material doped on the host glass for the light amplification.
摘要:
A method for transmitting information for a Multimedia Broadcast/Multicast Service (MBMS) capable of receiving a specific MBMS service without any difficulty in a when a terminal subscribed to the specific MBMS service moves from an to the, in which when the terminal moves from the to the, the terminal or the transmits to the state information of a terminal-related MBMS service which the is providing, and the provides the MBMS service to the terminal by setting a dedicated channel with the terminal.
摘要:
Provided in the present invention are adult stem cells derived from human skin dermis, and a method for isolating same. Further provided in the present invention are osteoblastic cells and adipocytes differentiated from the adult stem cells derived from human skin dermis, and a differentiation method therefor. Further provided in the present invention is a composition for osteogenesis or lipogenesis containing the stem cells, osteoblastic cells, or adipocytes. The isolation method of the present invention enables the adult stem cells derived from human skin dermis to be obtained in an easy and simple manner at a high yield rate. Genes and growth factors which are specifically expressed in the adult stem cells derived from human skin dermis isolated using the method can be separated, identified, and used later.
