Involvement of macrophages in germ cell death in the rat testis with acute experimental testicular torsion
Moon, C.J.;Shin, T.K.(Cheju National University, Jeju, Republic of Korea)E-mail:shint@cheju.ac.kr
Ischemia/reperfusion(I/R) injury of the rat testis causes germ cell death and infiltration of inflammatory cells. To investigate the mechanism of germ cell death in torsion of the rat testis, apoptosis and macrophage activation were studied using the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end-labeling(TUNEL) method and immunohistochemistry in the testes of Sprague-Dawley rats subjected to 1.5 h of ischemia, followed by 0, 1, 3, 6, 12, 24, 48 and 96 h of reperfusion.

1989
Cheong, K.S. (Yongdong Branch of Veterinary Research Inst., (Korea R.)) | Rim, B.M. (Chonbug National Univ., Chonju (Korea R.). Coll. of Veterinary Medicine)
The etiologic agents of mucormycosis are several nonpathogenic fungi of the order Mucorales and are ubiquitous. A total of 82 chickens were infected with the disease and developed anorexia, diarrhea, malnutrition, dyspnea, and paralysis in a chicken farm, Sokcho, Kwangwon. At necropsy there were multiple nodular lesions and hemorrhages in livers, spleens, kidneys, gastro intestinal track, and respiratory system. On histopathological examination it was found that the nodular lesions were consisted of granulomatous inflammation accompanying characteristic hyphae (4-24 micro wide) of the fungi

Park, N.Y. (Chonnam National Univ., Kwangju (Korea R.). Dept. of Veterinary Medicine)
An outbreak of duck virus hepatitis was confirmed for the first time in Korea from ducklings having up to 40-65% mortality in less than 15-day-old ducklings of two farms located in the vicinity of Kwangju city. The infected ducks showed sudden death and opisthotonus position. The predominant gross lesions were found in the liver, showing enlargement and petechial or ecchymotic hemorrhages. The microscopic findings consisted of fatty changes and necrosis of the hepatic cells, and proliferation of the bile duct epithelium
