Abstract: Disclosed are: a method for measuring the expression level of an ERa or PR gene to provide information necessary for diagnosis of preterm birth; and a kit for diagnosis of preterm birth, the kit including a probe or primers for an ERa or PR gene and an antibody to an ERa or PR protein, so that reliable information for diagnosis of preterm birth can be simply and easily provided.

Abstract: Provided is a sulfamide derivative having an adamantyl group represented by the following Formula 1, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The sulfamide derivative suppresses the activity of 11?-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11?-HSD1), and is useful in the treatment of various diseases that are mediated by 11?-HSD1.

Abstract: Provided is a method for screening a composition for preventing or treating an osteoporosis and a metabolic bone disease using a TALLYHO/JngJ mouse, and more particularly, to a method for screening a compound effective in preventing and treating a disease caused by abnormalities of a bone metabolism including an osteoporosis, through assessment of a bone regeneration activity, such as acceleration of osteoblast differentiation, inhibition of osteoclast differentiation, variation of cytokine in a serum, as well as a bone mineral density and a bone mineral content in a femur, using a TALLYHO/JngJ mouse instead of a ovariectomized animal generally used in estimating the efficacy of a new osteoporosis medicine in an animal. The screening method has a simple and stable experiment procedure, and can be used in developing an agent for treating an osteoporosis of men and improving the bone mineral content.
