About Journal of Biomedical and Translational Research

Journal of Biomedical and Translational Research is the official journal of Research Institute of Veterinary Medicine, Chungbuk National University. Abbreviated title is 'J. Biomed. Transl. Res.'. It was launched in 2000. It contains reviews, original articles, short communications, and case reports, etc, which generally contain overall review on current research issues, results of novel experiment or investigation, rapid publication for research results, examination of clinical cases, and unique experimental procedures or techniques, respectively. It is published only online quarterly in March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 each year. Supplement numbers are times published. All of the manuscripts are peer-reviewed.

Royal jelly (RJ) is a gelatinous substance that bees produce to feed bees and queen bees. It’s frequently sold as a dietary supplement to treat a variety of physical ailments and chronic diseases. While it has long been used in traditional medicine, its applications in Western medicine remain controversial. The inhibitory effect of royal jelly on osteoarthritis was investigated in primary cultured rat cartilage cells and monosodium-iodoacetate (MIA)-induced arthritis rat model 10-hydroxy-2-decenoic acid (10-HAD) is the main fatty acid present...

The purpose of this study was to examine the characteristics of acetaminophen (APAP)-induced liver damage, using fluorescence bioimaging, serum biochemistry, and histopathology. At six weeks of age, eighteen mice were divided into three groups as group 1 (G1) as control, group 2 (G2) as fluorescence probe control and group 3 (G3) as APAP-treated. G3 mice were orally treated with APAP (800 mg/kg b.w.), while G1 and G2 mice were treated with 0.9% saline. Twenty-two hours after APAP treatment, G2 and G3 mice were intravenously treated with Annexin...

Lysyl oxidase-variant 2 functions as an amine oxidase toward histone H2A

Chunying Li, Anjali Sharma-Bhandari, Youngho Kim

J Biomed Transl Res 2020;21(1):17-23.
https://doi.org/10.12729/jbtr.2020.21.1.17

Lysyl oxidase-variant 2 (LOX-v2) is a novel variant of lysyl oxidase (LOX) that functions as an amine oxidase for the formation of lysine-mediated crosslinks found in collagen and elastin fibrils. In addition to the amine oxidase activity in the extracellular matrix, several novel functions, such as tumor suppression, tumor progression, chemotaxis, cellular senescence, and modification of histones, have been assigned to LOX. In recent years, it has been reported that LOX is also present in nuclear locations, suggesting a novel functional role o...

Quantitative changes innatural antibodies stimulated from a D-galactose-induced aging mouse model

Ji-Hun Park, Seon-Bu Yang, Tae-Saeng Choi

J Biomed Transl Res 2020;21(1):24-29.
https://doi.org/10.12729/jbtr.2020.21.1.24

In previous studies, we found the production of antibodies against cross-reactive bovine serum albumin (BSA) in D-galactose (D-gal) induced aging mouse models. We performed immunoblot analysis with mouse tissue lysates to investigate the changes in the overall autoantibody production in this animal model. And we were able to see the possibility of altering the activity of mouse natural antibodies in this process. In this study, we examined changes in existing natural antibodies in a D-gal-induced aging mouse model. Serum samples were collected ...

A 13-week repeated dose oral toxicity study on a water extract of Artemisia annua in Sprague-Dawley rat

Su-Jin Park, Seong-Hyun Ho, Seon-Hee Kim, Chanyoung Park, Eun-Young Cho, Ji-Ran You

Artemisia annua (AA) is a well-known as a source of antimalarial drug (artemisinin), which also has been traditionally used as an antipyretic and hemostatic agent in Korea and China. In preclinical effective study, a water extract of Artemisia annua (WEAA) ameliorated weight gain and hepatic lipid accumulation in high-fat diet-fed mice. The plasma levels of triglyceride, AST, and ALT were reduced in the WEAA-treated group. Based on these results, the safety of WEAA as a functional ingredient for liver health wa...
