Epidemiologic and Clinical Features of Pertussis in Children(2000. 3-2001. 3)
Shin Yoo, Kyong Ouk Ahn, Eun Hye Park, Hyun Sang Cho, Chong Young Park, Hae Ran Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2002;45(5):603-608.   Published online May 15, 2002
Purpose : Pertussis is a highly communicable infectious disease in children with high mortality, especially in young infants. The incidence of pertussis in South Korea has decreased to about 10 cases a year in late '90s. Doubting previously reported incidences of pertussis, we designed this study to establish exact epidemiology and a diagnostic basis of pertussis. Methods : From Mar. 2000...
A Study of the Bystander Effect and Its Enhancement in HSV-TK Gene Therapy Using a Murine Neuroblastoma Model
Hyun Sang Cho, Moon Kyu Kim, Chong Young Park
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2002;45(3):354-361.   Published online March 15, 2002
Purpose : Selective introduction of genes conferring chemosensitivity into proliferating tumor cells may be used to treat cancer. We first investigated the bystander effect of retrovirus-mediated gene transfer of herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase(HSV-TK) gene to murine neuroblstoma cell line(neuro-2a) in vitro and in vivo. Second, we examined the mechanism and its enhancement of the bystander effect in murine neuroblastoma. Methods...
Bystander Effect of HSV-TK/GCV Gene Therapy in Murine Neuroblastoma
Eun Jung Shim, Se Ryoung Kim, Eun Hae Park, Hyun Sang Cho, Jae Kook Cha, Hae Ran Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2001;44(11):1249-1253.   Published online November 15, 2001
Purpose : To demonstrate the bystander effect in murine neuroblastoma model which transduced with HSV-TK gene in vitro and in vivo. Methods : The LNC/TK vector was transfered in vitro into the neuro-2a cells, murine neuroblastoma cell line. Variable mixed populations of neuro-2a cells consisting of HSV-TK＋ or HSV-TK－ were plated into culture plates and treated with GCV for...
Effect of GCV on Neuroblastoma Cell Line Expressed by HSV-TK Gene with Retroviral Vector
Hyun Sang Cho, Chuhl Joo Lyu, Yeun Soo Kim, Tae Soo Kim, Byung Soo Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1997;40(12):1719-1724.   Published online December 15, 1997
Background : Gene transfer with vectors derived from murine retroviruses is restricted to cells which are proliferating and synthesizing DNA at the time of infection. Accordingly, selective introduction of genes encoding for susceptibility to otherwise nontoxic drugs(suicide genes) into proliferating tumor may be used to treat cancer. We investigated the efficacy of in vitro transduction of neuroblastoma cell with the herpes simplex-thymidine kinase(HSV-tk) gene followed...
