Abstract
Inhalation of hydrogen (H2) gas is therapeutically effective for cerebrovascular diseases, neurodegenerative disorders, and neonatal brain disorders including pathologies induced by anesthetic gases. To understand the mechanisms underlying the protective effects of H2 on the brain, we investigated the molecular signals affected by H2 in sevoflurane-induced neuronal cell death. We confirmed that neural progenitor cells are susceptible to sevoflurane and undergo apoptosis in the retrosplenial cortex of neonatal mice. Co-administration of 1-8% H2 gas for 3 h to sevoflurane-exposed pups suppressed elevated caspase-3-mediated apoptotic cell death and concomitantly decreased c-Jun phosphorylation and activation of the c-Jun pathway, all of which are induced by oxidative stress. Anesthesia-induced increases in lipid peroxidation and oxidative DNA damage were alleviated by H2 inhalation. Phosphoproteome analysis revealed enriched clusters of differentially phosphorylated proteins in the sevoflurane-exposed neonatal brain that included proteins involved in neuronal development and synaptic signaling. H2 inhalation modified cellular transport pathways that depend on hyperphosphorylated proteins including microtubule-associated protein family. These modifications may be involved in the protective mechanisms of H2 against sevoflurane-induced neuronal cell death.

Abstract
Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma, a rare type of primary thyroid cancer, is one of the most aggressive neoplasms with a poor prognosis. Many cases are in the advanced stage at the time of the initial visit, and curative treatment is impossible. Because of the highly radioresistant nature of anaplastic thyroid carcinoma, this condition cannot be properly controlled with conventional radiotherapy. Herein, we report the case of a patient with anaplastic thyroid carcinoma who underwent hypofractionated radiotherapy, attained a complete response, and is still alive more than 10 years after treatment with no evidence of disease. To overcome the high radioresistance of anaplastic thyroid carcinoma, we administered 50 Gy in 10 fractions three times a week. Furthermore, we administered paclitaxel and carboplatin sequentially before and after radiotherapy. Consequently, the patient completed treatment and reached a complete response. He is still alive more than 10 years after treatment with no evidence of disease or severe adverse events. Hypofractionated radiation therapy may provide good control of locally advanced anaplastic thyroid carcinoma.

Abstract
Itaconic acid is a promising biochemical building block that can be used in polymer synthesis. Itaconic acid is currently produced in industry by the natural producer fungus Aspergillus terreus using glucose as a main carbon source. Most research for itaconic acid production using lignocellulosic-based carbon sources was carried out by A. terreus. Engineered Corynebacterium glutamicum strain which can grow in presence of fermentation inhibitors without effect on growth, was used for production of itaconic acid using sweet sorghum juice and bagasse sugar lysate (BSL). BSL contains many inhibitors unlike sorghum juice. C. glutamicum could grow in the media containing both types of lignocellulose-based carbon sources without showing any growth inhibition, however, sorghum juice was better in itaconic acid production than BSL. Different constructed strains of C. glutamicum were used for itaconic acid production, however, C. glutamicum ATCC 13032 pCH-Tad1optAdi1opt strain expressing Adi1/Tad1 genes (trans-pathway) from Ustilago maydis proved to be better in itaconic acid production giving final titer of 8.4 and 4.02 g/L using sweet sorghum juice and BSL as the sole carbon sources by fed-batch fermentation. Our study is the first for production of itaconic acid using sweet sorghum juice and BSL. The present study also proved that C. glutamicum can be used for enhancing itaconic acid production using lignocellulosic-based carbon sources.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) as a predictor of radiological effects on the heart. A total of 41 patients with esophageal cancer who underwent chemoradiotherapy (CRT) were retrospectively investigated. The BNP levels were measured on the first day of CRT (pre-CRT) and the last day of CRT (post-CRT), and the median concentration of BNP and dosimetric parameters of the heart were calculated. The change ratio of BNP was calculated as follows: [(BNP post-CRT) - (BNP pre-CRT)]/(BNP pre-CRT). The comparison of BNP pre-CRT with post-CRT was performed using a Wilcoxon signed-rank test. The relationship between dosimetric parameters and change ratio was analyzed using Spearman's correlation coefficient. The median levels of BNP of pre-CRT and post-CRT were 10 and 22 pg/ml, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.0001). Significant correlations (all P<0.05) were observed between the change ratio and mean dose, V5, V10, V20, and V30. Of the cohort, 14 patients developed acute-to-subacute cardiac events, such as pericardial effusion, cardiomegaly, acute exacerbation of chronic heart failure, and a decreased ejection fraction. The change ratios of BNP, V5, V10, V20, and V30 were significantly higher in patients who experienced cardiac events compared with those who did not. The results of this study showed that BNP measurement, particularly the change ratio of BNP pre- and post-CRT, may be a useful cardiac event predictor in addition to dosimetric parameters.

Abstract
Itaconic acid (IA), a C5-dicarboxylic acid, is a potential bio-based building block for the polymer industry. There are three pathways for IA production from natural IA producers; however, most of the engineered strains were used for IA production by heterologous expression of cis-aconitate decarboxylase gene (cadA) from Aspergillus terreus. In this study, IA was produced by an engineered Corynebacterium glutamicum ATCC 13032 expressing two different types of genes from two distinct pathways. The first involves the mammalian immunoresponsive gene1 (Irg1) derived from Mus musculus. The second (termed here the trans-pathway) involves two genes from the natural IA producer Ustilago maydis which are aconitate-delta-isomerase (Adi1) and trans-aconitate decarboxylase (Tad1) genes. The constructed strains developing the two distinct IA production pathways: C. glutamicum ATCC 13032 pCH-Irg1opt and C. glutamicum ATCC 13032 pCH-Tad1optadi1opt were used for production of IA from different carbon sources. The results reflect the possibility for IA production from C. glutamicum expressing the trans-pathway (Adi1/Tad1 genes) and cis-pathway (Irg1 gene) other than the well-known cis-pathway that depends mainly on cadA gene from A. terreus. The developed strain expressing trans-pathway from U. maydis; however, proved to be better at IA production with high titers of 12.25, 11.34, and 11.02 g/L, and a molar yield of 0.22, 0.42, and 0.43 mol/mol from glucose, maltose, and sucrose, respectively, via fed-batch fermentation. The present study suggests that trans-pathway is better than cis-pathway for IA production in engineered C. glutamicum.

Abstract
Itaconic acid (IA) is a value-added chemical currently produced by Aspergillus terreus from edible glucose and starch but not from inedible lignocellulosic biomass owing to the high sensitivity to fermentation inhibitors present in the hydrolysate of lignocellulosic biomass. To produce IA from lignocellulosic biomass, a gram-positive bacterium, Corynebacterium glutamicum, with a high tolerance to fermentation inhibitors was metabolically engineered to express a fusion protein composed of cis-aconitate decarboxylase from A. terreus responsible for IA formation from cis-aconitate and a maltose-binding protein (malE) from Escherichia coli. The codon-optimized cadA_malE gene was expressed in C. glutamicum ATCC 13032, and the resulting recombinant strain produced IA from glucose. IA concentration increased 4.7-fold by the deletion of the ldh gene encoding lactate dehydrogenase. With the Δldh strain HKC2029, an 18-fold higher IA production was observed from enzymatic hydrolysate of kraft pulp as a model lignocellulosic biomass than from glucose (6.15 and 0.34 g/L, respectively). The enzymatic hydrolysate of kraft pulp contained various potential fermentation inhibitors involved in furan aldehydes, benzaldehydes, benzoic acids, cinnamic acid derivatives, and aliphatic acid. Whereas cinnamic acid derivatives severely inhibited IA production, furan aldehydes, benzoic acids, and aliphatic acid improved IA production at low concentrations. The present study suggests that lignocellulosic hydrolysate contains various potential fermentation inhibitors; however, some of them can serve as enhancers for microbial fermentation likely due to the changing of redox balance in the cell.

Abstract
Sorghum is the fifth most important cereal crop. Here we performed molecular genetic analyses of the 'SUGARY FETERITA' (SUF) variety, which shows typical sugary endosperm traits (e.g., wrinkled seeds, accumulation of soluble sugars, and distorted starch). Positional mapping indicated that the corresponding gene was located on the long arm of chromosome 7. Within the candidate region of 3.4 Mb, a sorghum ortholog for maize Su1 (SbSu) encoding a starch debranching enzyme ISA1 was found. Sequencing analysis of SbSu in SUF uncovered nonsynonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the coding region, containing substitutions of highly conserved amino acids. Complementation of the rice sugary-1 (osisa1) mutant line with the SbSu gene recovered the sugary endosperm phenotype. Additionally, analyzing mutants obtained from an EMS-induced mutant panel revealed novel alleles with phenotypes showing less severe wrinkles and higher Brix scores. These results suggested that SbSu was the corresponding gene for the sugary endosperm. Expression profiles of starch synthesis genes during the grain-filling stage demonstrated that a loss-of-function of SbSu affects the expression of most starch synthesis genes and revealed the fine-tuned gene regulation in the starch synthetic pathway in sorghum. Haplotype analysis using 187 diverse accessions from a sorghum panel revealed the haplotype of SUF showing severe phenotype had not been used among the landraces and modern varieties. Thus, weak alleles (showing sweet and less severe wrinkles), such as in the abovementioned EMS-induced mutants, are more valuable for grain sorghum breeding. Our study suggests that more moderate alleles (e.g. produced by genome editing) should be beneficial for improving grain sorghum.

Abstract
The aromatic compound 3-amino-4-hydroxybenzoic acid (3,4-AHBA) can be employed as a raw material for high-performance industrial plastics. The aim of this study is to produce 3,4-AHBA via a recombinant Streptomyces lividans strain containing griI and griH genes derived from Streptomyces griseus using culture medium with glucose and/or xylose, which are the main components in lignocellulosic biomass. Production of 3,4-AHBA by the recombinant S. lividans strain was successful, and the productivity was affected by the kind of sugar used as an additional carbon source. Metabolic profiles revealed that L aspartate-4-semialdehyde (ASA), a precursor of 3,4-AHBA, and coenzyme NADPH were supplied in greater amounts in xylose medium than in glucose medium. Moreover, cultivation in TSB medium with a mixed sugar (glucose/xylose) was found to be effective for 3,4-AHBA production, and optimal conditions for efficient production were designed by changing the ratio of glucose to xylose. The best productivity of 2.70 g/L was achieved using a sugar mixture of 25 g/L glucose and 25 g/L xylose, which was 1.5 times higher than the result using 50 g/L glucose alone. These results suggest that Streptomyces is a suitable candidate platform for 3,4-AHBA production from lignocellulosic biomass-derived sugars under appropriate culture conditions.

Abstract
UNLABELLED This population-based cohort study with a 3-year follow-up revealed that the annual incidence rates of vertebral fracture (VF) and severe VF (sVF) were 5.9%/year and 1.7%/year, respectively. The presence of mild VF at the baseline was a significant risk factor for incident sVF in participants without prevalent sVF. INTRODUCTION This study aimed to estimate the incidence of morphometric vertebral fracture (VF) and severe VF (sVF) in men and women and clarify whether the presence of a mild VF (mVF) increases the risk of incident sVF. METHODS Data from the population-based cohort study, entitled the Research on Osteoarthritis/Osteoporosis Against Disability (ROAD) study, were analyzed. In total, 1190 participants aged ≥ 40 years (mean age, 65.0 ± 11.2) years completed whole-spine lateral radiography both at the third (2012-2013, baseline) and fourth surveys performed 3 years later (2015-2016, follow-up). VF was defined using Genant's semi-quantitative (SQ) method: VF as SQ ≥ 1, mVF as SQ = 1, and sVF as SQ ≥ 2. Cumulative incidence of VF and sVF was estimated. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to evaluate risk factors for incident sVF. RESULTS The baseline prevalence of mVF and sVF were 16.8% and 6.0%, respectively. The annual incidence rates of VF and sVF were 5.9%/year and 1.7%/year, respectively. The annual incidence rates of sVF in participants without prevalent VF, with prevalent mVF, and with prevalent sVF were 0.6%/year, 3.8%/year, and 11.7%/year (p < 0.001), respectively. Multivariate logistic regression analyses in participants without prevalent sVF showed that the adjusted odds ratios for incident sVF were 4.12 [95% confident interval 1.85-9.16] and 4.53 [1.49-13.77] if the number of prevalent mVF at the baseline was 1 and ≥ 2, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The annual incidence rates of VF and sVF were 5.9%/year and 1.7%/year, respectively. The presence of prevalent mVF was an independent risk factor for incident sVF.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effect of 6-cycle completion and earlier use of radium-233 dichloride (Ra223) on the prognosis of patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). METHODS We retrospectively evaluated 75 patients with bone metastases-predominant mCRPC who were treated with Ra223 between August 2016 and August 2021. The primary purpose of the study was to assess the effect of Ra223 completion (6 cycles) on patient prognosis, and the secondary purpose was to investigate factors associated with Ra223 incompletion (fewer than 6 cycles) and overall survival. RESULTS The median age of the patients was 72 years. The median number of Ra223 administrations was 6 (interquartile range, 5-6), and the median Ra223 completion rate was 75%. The median time from mCRPC diagnosis to Ra223 administration was 17 months, and the median number of prior treatments was 2. Multivariable analysis indicated that unfavorable performance status (>0), prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level >10 ng/ml, extension of bone metastasis score 3 to 4, and Ra223 incompletion were significantly associated with poor overall survival. In addition, EOD 3 to 4 and 3 or more prior CRPC treatments were significantly associated with Ra223 incompletion. CONCLUSION Six-cycle completion and earlier administration of Ra233 are potentially associated with favorable survival. Unfavorable factors (EOD 3-4 and ≥3 prior treatments) were significantly associated with Ra223 incompletion.

Abstract
Lignocellulosic biomass has great potential as an inedible feedstock for bioplastic synthesis, although its use is still limited compared to current edible feedstocks of glucose and starch. This review focuses on recent advances in the production of biopolymers and biomonomers from lignocellulosic feedstocks with downstream processing and chemical polymer syntheses. In microbial production, four routes composed of existing poly (lactic acid) and polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) and the emerging biomonomers of itaconic acid and aromatic compounds were presented to review present challenges and future perspectives, focusing on the use of lignocellulosic feedstocks. Recently, advances in purification technologies decreased the number of processes and their environmental burden. Additionally, the unique structures and high-performance of emerging lignocellulose-based bioplastics have expanded the possibilities for the use of bioplastics. The sequence of processes provides insight into the emerging technologies that are needed for the practical use of bioplastics made from lignocellulosic biomass.

Abstract
Background Bio-based aromatic compounds are of great interest to the industry, as commercial production of aromatic compounds depends exclusively on the unsustainable use of fossil resources or extraction from plant resources. γ-amino acid 3-amino-4-hydroxybenzoic acid (3,4-AHBA) serves as a precursor for thermostable bioplastics. Results Under aerobic conditions, a recombinant Corynebacterium glutamicum strain KT01 expressing griH and griI genes derived from Streptomyces griseus produced 3,4-AHBA with large amounts of amino acids as by-products. The specific productivity of 3,4-AHBA increased with decreasing levels of dissolved oxygen (DO) and was eightfold higher under oxygen limitation (DO = 0 ppm) than under aerobic conditions (DO ≥ 2.6 ppm). Metabolic profiles during 3,4-AHBA production were compared at three different DO levels (0, 2.6, and 5.3 ppm) using the DO-stat method. Results of the metabolome analysis revealed metabolic shifts in both the central metabolic pathway and amino acid metabolism at a DO of < 33% saturated oxygen. Based on this metabolome analysis, metabolic pathways were rationally designed for oxygen limitation. An ldh deletion mutant, with the loss of lactate dehydrogenase, exhibited 3.7-fold higher specific productivity of 3,4-AHBA at DO = 0 ppm as compared to the parent strain KT01 and produced 5.6 g/L 3,4-AHBA in a glucose fed-batch culture. Conclusions Our results revealed changes in the metabolic state in response to DO concentration and provided insights into oxygen supply during fermentation and the rational design of metabolic pathways for improved production of related amino acids and their derivatives.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) transplantation is an effective periodontal regenerative therapy. MSCs are multipotent, have self-renewal ability, and can differentiate into periodontal cells. However, senescence is inevitable for MSCs. In vitro, cell senescence can be induced by long-term culture with/without cell passage. However, the regulatory mechanism of MSC senescence remains unclear. Undifferentiated MSC-specific transcription factors can regulate MSC function. Herein, we identified the regulatory transcription factors involved in MSC senescence and elucidated their mechanisms of action. We cultured human MSCs (hMSCs) with repetitive cell passages to induce cell senescence and evaluated the mRNA and protein expression of cell senescence-related genes. Additionally, we silenced the cell senescence-induced transcription factors, GATA binding protein 6 (GATA6) and SRY-box 11 (SOX11), and investigated senescence-related signaling pathways. With repeated passages, the number of senescent cells increased, while the cell proliferation capacity decreased; GATA6 mRNA expression was upregulated and that of SOX11 was downregulated. Repetitive cell passages decreased Wnt and bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling pathway-related gene expression. Silencing of GATA6 and SOX11 regulated Wnt and BMP signaling pathway-related genes and affected cell senescence-related genes; moreover, SOX11 silencing regulated GATA6 expression. Hence, we identified them as pair of regulatory transcription factors for cell senescence in hMSCs via the Wnt and BMP signaling pathways.

Abstract
Lung cancer with low average iodine density measured via contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) using dual-energy CT technology has shown a reduced local control rate after stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT). The current study therefore investigated the relationship between low iodine density tumor area and its ratio and local recurrence after SBRT. Dual-energy CT was performed on the day before SBRT initiation, with a low iodine density tumor area being defined as that with an iodine density of <1.81 mg cm-3. The low iodine density tumor area, the ratio between the low iodine density tumor area and the entire tumor, and the local recurrence rate were then determined. No correlation was observed between the low iodine density tumor area and the local recurrence rate. However, tumors with a large low iodine density tumor area ratio showed an increased local recurrence rate, with the prognostic accuracy almost similar to that in previous studies using average iodine densities. Our results therefore suggest that the low iodine density tumor area ratio was a useful prognostic index after SBRT, with an accuracy comparable with that of the average iodine density.

Abstract
A direct production route of cellulose nanofibers (TOCN-D) from raw wood particles of paulownia using simultaneous bleaching and TEMPO oxidation process was specifically investigated and introduced. For comparison, we prepared cellulose nanofibers (TOCN-C) through a common route of TEMPO oxidation of cellulose fibers, and cellulose nanofibers with disk grinding (GCNF). FE-SEM analysis showed that the average diameter of TOCN-D (5 ± 3 nm) was similar to that of TOCN-C (6 ± 3 nm). XRD results confirmed that the crystal properties of TOCN-D and that of TOCN-C were almost the same. TOCN-D and TOCN-C showed similar chemical, thermal and optical properties in FTIR, TGA and transparency tests, respectively. The nanopaper made from TOCN-D showed high Young's modulus (13.8 GPa) and tensile strength (233 MPa), which were similar to those of TOCN-C nanopaper. Owing the aforementioned similarities, it is concluded that the TOCN-D produced through direct route is a technically, environmental-friendly and economically valuable product.

Abstract
Hypoxia leads to post-treatment metastasis and recurrences of cancer via the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Radiotherapy itself may also contribute to the acquisition of EMT phenotypes. Despite extensive studies on the EMT driven by either hypoxia or radiation stimuli, the molecular mechanisms characterizing these EMT events remain unclear. Thus, we aimed to evaluate the differences in the molecular pathways between hypoxia-induced EMT (Hypo-EMT) and radiation-induced EMT (R-EMT). Further, we investigated the therapeutic effects of HIF-1α inhibitor (LW6) on Hypo-EMT and R-EMT cells. A549 cells, lung adenocarcinoma cell line, acquired enhanced wound-healing activity under both hypoxia and irradiation. Localization of E-cadherin was altered from the cell membrane to the cytoplasm in both hypoxia and irradiated conditions. Of note, the expression levels of vimentin, one of the major EMT markers, was enhanced in irradiated cells, while it decreased under hypoxia condition. Importantly, LW6 significantly blocked EMT-related malignant phenotypes in both Hypo-EMT cells and R-EMT cells with concomitant re-location of E-cadherin onto the cell membrane. Moreover, LW6 deflected stress responsive signalling, JNK, activated sustainably under hypoxic condition, and the blockage of JNK impaired EMT phenotypes. Together, this work demonstrated the molecular events underlying Hypo-EMT and R-EMT, and highlighted HIF-1α as a therapeutic target not only in Hypo- EMT, but also in R-EMT.

Abstract
Autoimmune neutropenia (AIN) in childhood is characterized by chronic neutropenia and positivity for anti-neutrophil antibodies, resulting in the excessive destruction of neutrophils. In this study, we investigated the involvement of regulatory T cells (Tregs ) in the pathogenesis of AIN in childhood. Tregs have been classified into three subpopulations based on the expressions of CD45RA and forkhead box protein 3 (FoxP3): resting Tregs , activated Tregs and non-suppressive Tregs . The frequency of activated Tregs (CD4+ CD25+ FoxP3high CD45RA- T cells) as well as that of total Tregs (CD4+ CD25+ FoxP3+ T cells) in peripheral blood was significantly decreased in patients with AIN. Analysis of the T cell receptor (TCR)-Vβ repertoire of CD4+ T cells revealed skewed usages in patients with AIN compared with that observed in age-matched control subjects. Regarding T cell subsets, the use of four of 24 TCR-Vβ families in Tregs and one in conventional T cells were increased in patients with AIN. The number of patients with AIN who showed skewed usages of TCR-Vβ family in conventional and Tregs was significantly higher than that reported in control subjects. When the preference between Tregs and conventional T cells in each TCR-Vβ family was individually compared, different use was prominently observed in the TCR-Vβ 9 family in patients with AIN. These results suggest that the quantitative abnormalities of Tregs and the skew of the TCR-Vβ repertoire in CD4+ T cells, including Tregs and conventional T cells, may be related to autoantibody production through a human neutrophil antigen-reactive T cell clone.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Recent years have witnessed a rapid rise in the incidence of mental health deterioration, such as depression and depressive symptoms. Therefore, early detection and measures of prevention have become important. This study aimed to develop a predictive method for assessing the incident risk of mental health deterioration by examining the associations between mental health and handwriting duration. METHODS A cohort study over four years was performed with 200 university students who volunteered to participate in this study. Participants received the Uchida-Kraepelin test every April and completed the 30-item general health questionnaire to evaluate their mental health. From the stroke data obtained from the digital pen in the Uchida-Kraepelin test, two kinds of intervals were extracted. Based on these interval ratios, participants were divided into two groups. We then examined the scores of the questionnaire between the high-risk group and the low-risk group in the first year of the study. In addition, multiple logistic regression analysis was used to examine whether those in the high-risk group in the first year still belonged to the high-risk group in the fourth year. RESULTS In the "Anxiety and Dysphoria scale" in the first year, the high-risk group had a significantly higher score than the low-risk group. Additionally, it was found that those in the high-risk group in the first year tended to still be in the high-risk group in the fourth year. CONCLUSION These results suggested that the indicator that we developed can be used as a predictive factor for the incident risk of mental health deterioration.

Abstract
Stroke can be a cause of death, while in non-fatal cases it is a common cause of various disabilities resulting from associated brain damage. However, whether a specific periodontal pathogen is associated with increased risk of unfavorable outcome after stroke remains unknown. We examined risk factors for unfavorable outcome following stroke occurrence, including serum antibody titers to periodontal pathogens. The enrolled cohort included 534 patients who had experienced an acute stroke, who were divided into favorable (n = 337) and unfavorable (n = 197) outcome groups according to modified ranking scale (mRS) score determined at 3 months after onset (favorable = score 0 or 1; unfavorable = score 2-6). The associations of risk factors with unfavorable outcome, including serum titers of IgG antibodies to 16 periodontal pathogens, were examined. Logistic regression analysis showed that the initial National Institutes of Health stroke scale score [odds ratio (OR) = 1·24, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1·18-1·31, P < 0·001] and C-reactive protein (OR = 1·29, 95% CI = 1·10-1·51, P = 0·002) were independently associated with unfavorable outcome after stroke. Following adjustment with those, detection of the antibody for Fusobacterium nucleatum ATCC 10953 in serum remained an independent predictor of unfavorable outcome (OR = 3·12, 95% CI = 1·55-6·29, P = 0·002). Determination of the antibody titer to F. nucleatum ATCC 10953 in serum may be useful as a predictor of unfavorable outcome after stroke.

Abstract
Controlling the carbon flux into a desired pathway is important for improving product yield in metabolic engineering. After entering a cell, glucose is channeled into glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP), which decreases the yield of target products whose synthesis relies on NADPH as a cofactor. Here, we demonstrate redirection of carbon flux into PPP under aerobic conditions in Corynebacterium glutamicum, achieved by replacing the promoter of glucose 6-phosphate isomerase gene (pgi) with an anaerobic-specific promoter of the lactate dehydrogenase gene (ldhA). The promoter replacement increased the split ratio of carbon flux into PPP from 39 to 83% under aerobic conditions. The titer, yield, and production rate of 1,5-diaminopentane, whose synthesis requires NADPH as a cofactor, were increased by 4.6-, 4.4-, and 2.6-fold, respectively. This is the largest improvement in the production of 1,5-diaminopentane or its precursor, lysine, reported to date. After aerobic cell growth, pgi expression was automatically induced under anaerobic conditions, altering the carbon flux from PPP to glycolysis, to produce succinate in a single metabolically engineered strain. Such an automatic redirection of metabolic pathway using an oxygen-responsive switch enables two-stage fermentation for efficient production of two different compounds by a single strain, potentially reducing the production costs and time for practical applications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the incidence and progression rate of radiographic hip osteoarthritis (OA) and its risk factors in Japanese men and women using a large-scale population of a nationwide cohort study, Research on Osteoarthritis/osteoporosis Against Disability (ROAD). METHODS From the baseline survey of the ROAD study, 2,975 participants (1,043 men and 1,932 women) aged 23-94 years (mean, 70.2 years) living in urban, mountainous, and coastal communities were followed up with hip radiography at 3, 7, and 10 years (mean follow-up, 7.1 years). Radiographs were scored using the Kellgren/Lawrence (K/L) grading system, and radiographic hip OA was defined as K/L ≥ 2. The incidence and progression rate of hip OA were examined. Acetabular dysplasia was defined as a central-edge angle <20°. Cox's proportional hazard model was used to assess risk factors for incident and progressive radiographic hip OA. RESULTS The incidence rate of radiographic hip OA was 5.6/1,000 person-years and 8.4/1,000 person-years in men and women, respectively. The progression rate of hip OA was 2.2/1,000 person-years and 6.0/1,000 person-years in men and women, respectively. The significant risk factors for incident hip OA were age, obesity, and acetabular dysplasia at baseline (hazard risk [HR] 1.05, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.03-1.08; 1.78, 1.10-2.75; 2.06, 1.30-3.17, respectively). The significant risk factors for progressive hip OA were baseline hip pain and acetabular dysplasia (HR 5.68, 95%CI 1.07-22.61; 14.78, 3.66-56.06, respectively). CONCLUSION Continued longitudinal surveys of the ROAD study will contribute to knowledge about and potential prevention of incident and progressive hip OA.

Abstract
3-Phenyllactic acid (PhLA) is useful as a start-up material in the pharmaceutical and biorefinery industries. To enhance the production of PhLA from glucose using recombinant Escherichia coli, the effects of glucose concentration and oxygen limitation on PhLA production are assessed in a fed-batch system using dissolved oxygen (DO)-stat method. The highest titer of PhLA (7.3 g L-1 ) is observed with a high concentration of glucose and under oxygen-limited conditions (DO = 0 ppm). Under oxygen limitation, cell growth and the formation of acetate and l-phenylalanine (Phe) by-products after 72 h of cultivation are reduced by 30%, 70%, and 81%, respectively, as compared to that under high DO conditions (DO = 5 ppm). Gene expression levels are compared between low and high DO conditions by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) analysis. Several genes in the glycolysis (gapA and pykA), pentose phosphate (tktA), and early shikimate pathways for PhLA biosynthesis (aroF, aroG, and aroH) are upregulated under oxygen limitation. The results suggest that oxygen limitation affects metabolism in the shikimate pathway at both metabolic and transcriptional levels and that controlling the DO level is critical for enhanced production of a variety of aromatic compounds through the shikimate pathway.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To secure human resources for occupational medicine, it is important to analyse occupational physician retention trends and the factors associated with retention. However, little is currently known about this topic. AIMS To identify occupational physician retention trends, to identify factors associated with this retention and to discuss the policy implications of the findings. METHODS We analysed data from the biannual national physician census surveys conducted by the government of Japan from 2002 to 2014. In this study, those who chose 'working as an occupational physician' as their workplace/type of work from a pre-determined list in the survey questionnaire were considered full-time occupational physicians. We presented retention trends by calculating the annual retention rate for each set of two consecutive surveys. We then used logistic regression to identify factors associated with retention among occupational physicians. RESULTS The annual retention rate of full-time occupational physicians from 2012 to 2014 was estimated as 76%, which represents a 6% improvement in retention over the study period. The odds of continuing to practise as an occupational physician were higher for occupational physicians working in cities compared with those working in towns or villages. CONCLUSIONS Improving and facilitating smooth transitions between clinical practice and occupational medicine would help to secure human resources in occupational medicine, even if the current trend of low retention continues.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to construct a cost-effective method for repeated bioethanol production using membrane (ultrafiltration permeation and nanofiltration concentration)-concentrated sweet sorghum juice by using flocculent Saccharomyces cerevisiae F118 strain. With low initial dry cell concentrations at around 0.28-0.35 g L-1, the S. cerevisiae F118 strain provided an ethanol titer of 86.19 ± 1.15 g L-1 (theoretical ethanol yield of 70.77%), which was higher than the non-flocculent S. cerevisiae BY4741 strain at 33.92 ± 0.99 g L-1 after 24 h fermentation. This result was correlated with higher gene expressions of the sucrose-hydrolysing enzyme invertase, sugar phosphorylation, and pyruvate-to-ethanol pathways in the F118 strain compared with the BY4741 strain. Sequential fed-batch fermentation was conducted, and the F118 strain was easily separated from the fermentation broth via the formation of flocs and sediment. After the 5th cycle of fermentation with the F118 strain, the ethanol concentration reached 100.37 g L-1.
