Abstract
Background:Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disorder that contributes to accelerating frailty, a clinical state of increased vulnerability due to declined physiological function. Although accumulating evidence suggests the importance of nutritional therapy for frailty in the general population, there is little evidence on dietary recommendations for preventing frailty in patients with RA.Objectives:The present study aimed to reveal clinical associations between frailty status, eating habits and RA disease activity.Methods:We conducted a cross-sectional study of 306 female outpatients enrolled from the KURAMA (Kyoto University Rheumatoid Arthritis Management Alliance) cohort database. The participants were classified into three groups (robust, prefrail and frail) according to simplified frailty scale (SOF index), and dietary data were collected using a self-reported food frequency questionnaire as previously reported. We performed multivariate logistic analyses for the presence of frailty/prefrailty with or without eating habits.Results:Frail group showed physical decline such as decreased skeletal muscle index, hand grip strength and walking speed, and DAS28-ESR in the frail group was significantly higher compared to that in the others. In multivariate logistic analysis, the presence of frailty/prefrailty was correlated with DAS28-ESR (OR 1.71, p=0.00004) and methotrexate use (OR 0.47, p=0.0097). Cochran-Armitage trend test also showed that the intake frequency of five ingredients (meat, fish, milk, fruits and vegetables) was inversely associated with the prevalence of frailty/prefrailty. In additional multivariate logistic analyses with dietary habits, habitual intake of fish (at least three times per week), rather than meat or other foods, was independently correlated with the presence of frailty/prefrailty (OR 0.33, p=0.00027).Conclusion:Our results suggest that habitual intake of fish, rather than meat or other foods, may be beneficial in preventing frailty among RA patients.References:[1]Ferrucci, L. & Fabbri, E.

Abstract
Abstract
Background. Indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence method (ICG-f) has been recently widely used in sentinel lymph node (SLN) detection. The advantages of ICG-f are no radiation exposure, no limitation to use in high-volume medical centers without radioactive facility, and to confirm lymph flow as a real-time image from outside the body. ICG-f identified an average of 2.3-3.4 SLNs and the detection rate was 99%, compared to 1.7-2 SLNs by RI methods. Long-term observation after SNB using ICG-f has not been reported, including arm lymphedema as the complication of this method.We evaluate the usefulness of SLN biopsy (SNB) for cN0 breast cancer patients from data of multicenter cohort study on long-term results after negative SNB by ICG-f.
Methods. Eleven hundred and thirty-two women were enrolled who had histologically proved clinical stage T1-4, pN0, M0 primary invasive breast cancer with SNB using ICG-f (ICG alone or combination of RI/blue dye method) sparing axillary lymph node dissection from May 2007 to December 2015. This study is retrospective, multicenter cohort study conducted at 6 centers in Japan. Primary endpoint is axillary recurrence rate. We analyzed the correlation with the axillary recurrence and adjuvant systemic therapy, adjuvant radiotherapy, and the clinicopathological characteristics. Secondary endpoint is lymphedema.
Results and Discussion. The median follow-up time was 41 (range 21-117) months, and axillary recurrence was found in 6 patients (0.53%). Five out of 6 patients were not received standard adjuvant systemic therapy or adjuvant radiation therapy after breast conserving surgerybecause of patient's preference or old age. Lymphedema was identified only 4 patients in 632 patients. It is reported that axillary recurrence after SNB was 0.3-1.65%, which was consistent with our result. Lymphedema was not frequent in patients received SNB using ICG-f, because SLNs are removed along with lymphatic ducts in the limited area of axillary adipose tissue.
Conclusion.Axillary recurrence after negative SNB using ICG-f was comparable to RI or blue dye method. It might be important to perform appropriate adjuvant medication or radiation therapy for preventing axillary recurrence after SNB using ICG-f.
Next, ICG-f after neoadjuvant chemotherapy is to be investigated, because itis reported that removing more than 2 SLNs were associated with a lower likelihood of false negative ratio in patients with clinically node-positive disease converted to clinically node-negative after chemotherapy, and ICG-f might overcome this issue.

Abstract
Abstract
Background)
Sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy using indocyanine green fluorescence (fICG) method showed equal or better identification rate compared with blue dye or radioisotope (RI) method. In the fICG method, lymphatic vessels which drain into the SLNs can be seen through skin or subcutaneous tissue using near infrared camera (Photodynamic Eye®: PDE), and we can easily find the SLNs. However, whenever we observe the fluorescence images, we have to hold the PDE, turn off the operating light, and look at a monitor because fluorescence images cannot be seen directly. Medical imaging projection system (MIPS) is a new device which detects fluorescent emission from the organ and projects their images on the location of the fluorescence emission (Panasonic Connected Solutions Company, Japan). Projected images can be adjusted following the body movement or deformation of the organ. Therefore, MIPS could provide an option for real-time navigation for the SLN biopsy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical utility of the MIPS.
Patients and methods)
Patients with clinically node-negative primary breast cancer underwent the fICG SLN biopsy using MIPS. Primary endpoint was identification rate of the fICG method using MIPS. At first, the study was conducted as an interventional study because the MIPS was the unapproved medical device. After approval of the MIPS, this study was conducted as an observational study. The study protocol was approved by the institutional review board at Kyoto University Hospital. All patients provided informed consent to participate in this study.
Results)
Between March 2016 and May 2017, 39 patients (40 procedures) underwent the fICG method SLN biopsy using MIPS. The median age was 55 years (range 32–74 years), and the median body mass index was 20.4 kg/m2 (range 17.7–27.7 kg/m2). About half had tumor stage T1 (58%) and 8 (20.0%) had DCIS. 8 procedures (20%) were performed after preoperative systemic therapy (PST). As MIPS itself can illuminate the operating field, SLN biopsy using MIPS was successfully performed without operating light in all procedures. At least one SLN was detected using MIPS for all procedures and the identification rate was 100% (95% CI: 91–100%). Median number of SLNs detected by MIPS was 3 (range 1–9) for all procedures, and 3 (range 2–8) for procedures after PST. Two pathologically positive SLNs and one SLN which included isolated tumor cells were detected by MIPS. In 25 procedures, RI was also used. 62 of 97 SLNs detected by MIPS (64%) were also detected by RI. However, no SLNs were detected only by RI.
Conclusions)
Although we still may not be able to avoid RI method because 25/40 (62.5%) procedures required the combined use of RI method, the fICG methods SLN biopsy using MIPS, which showed comparable identification rate of SLN with the conventional methods, could be useful tool with a view of allowing us to perform a real-time navigation surgery.

Abstract
Abstract
Background:
Tumor angiogenesis and hypoxia are associated with breast cancer growth and metastasis. Photoacoustic (PA) tomography is an optical imaging technology that visualizes distribution and oxygenation status of hemoglobin with high spatial resolution. Initially we developed a photoacoustic mammography (PAM) having a flat-shaped scanning detector that could detect breast tumors. Nevertheless, the flat-shaped detector array has the drawback of a limited view. Here we developed a novel PAM system with a hemispherical-shaped detector array (HDA), which enables us to identify microvasculatures non-invasively and allow the collection of nearly spatially isotropic three-dimensional reconstructed image of blood vessels. This non-invasive vascular imaging system may be able to characterize tumor angiogenesis and analyze the status of microcirculation. The aim of this study was to analyze the imaging findings of tumor-related vasculature in breast cancer patients.
Patients and method:
A PAM system with HDA has been generated in a cooperation project between Canon Inc., Japan, and Kyoto University. Twenty-two primary breast cancer patients, including 5 patients with non-invasive cancer and 17 patients with invasive cancer, diagnosed between December 2014 and December 2015 underwent the PAM imaging analysis. We also applied the breast deformation algorithm from the breast shape in a MRI image to that in a PA image in order to create a fusion image of the two modalities for the analysis. Features of peri- and intra-tumoral vasculature, and their oxygenation status were evaluated. The study protocol was approved by the institutional review board at Kyoto University Hospital (UMIN000012251). All patients provided informed consent to participate in this study.
Results:
The abnormal peri-tumoral vasculature was detected in 86% of all non-invasive and invasive disease cases. In invasive cancer cases, most tumor-related blood vessels were centripetally directed toward the tumor, and 93% of centripetal blood vessels appeared to be disrupted or rapidly narrowed at the tumor boundary. The centripetal blood vessel structure was frequently observed in invasive cancer compared with non-invasive cancer (61% vs 35%). PA images before and after preoperative chemotherapy were obtained in one case, where intra-tumoral blood vessels became finer after chemotherapy, reflecting normalization of intra-tumoral microcirculation induced by chemotherapy.
Conclusions:
A PAM system with HDA has provided a high-resolution vascular images of primary breast cancers. The morphological differences of peri-tumoral vasculature were observed between invasive disease and non-invasive disease. These results suggest the potential of PA imaging as a non-invasive tool to analyze tumor vasculature of human breast cancers and maybe be helpful for breast cancer diagnosis.

Abstract
Noninvasive measurement of the distribution and oxygenation state of hemoglobin (Hb) inside the tissue is strongly required to analyze the tumor-associated vasculatures. We developed a photoacoustic imaging (PAI) system with a hemispherical-shaped detector array (HDA). Here, we show that PAI system with HDA revealed finer vasculature, more detailed blood-vessel branching structures, and more detailed morphological vessel characteristics compared with MRI by the use of breast shape deformation of MRI to PAI and their fused image. Morphologically abnormal peritumoral blood vessel features, including centripetal photoacoustic signals and disruption or narrowing of vessel signals, were observed and intratumoral signals were detected by PAI in breast cancer tissues as a result of the clinical study of 22 malignant cases. Interestingly, it was also possible to analyze anticancer treatment-driven changes in vascular morphological features and function, such as improvement of intratumoral blood perfusion and relevant changes in intravascular hemoglobin saturation of oxygen. This clinical study indicated that PAI appears to be a promising tool for noninvasive analysis of human blood vessels and may contribute to improve cancer diagnosis.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Tumor angiogenesis and hypoxia are associated with breast cancer growth and metastasis. Photoacoustic mammography (PAM) non-invasively visualizes hemoglobin distribution inside the breast by detecting thermoelastic waves from hemoglobin generated by the irradiation of a near-infrared laser pulse. Oxygen saturation (SO2) can be calculated using photoacoustic (PA) signals obtained by two laser pulses of different wavelengths. We further improved the spatial resolution of PAM by approximately 1 mm and enhanced detectability by using a high-sensitivity detector. This new PAM technique can obtain both PAM images and ultrasonography (US) images simultaneously. The aim of this study was to explore the clinical usefulness of this PAM technique.
Patients and methods: Women who had breast lesions were eligible for this study. The participants' lesions were measured using the new PAM technique before they began treatment. The PAM images were evaluated by 5 physicians. First, the lesions were identified using only the PAM images. Second, we used US or contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance images (CE-MRI) to identify the locations of the lesions. Next, we evaluated the photoacoustic (PA) signals based on their locations. Peri-tumoral PA signals were defined as linear signals that congregated in the peri-tumoral area, boundary PA signals were defined as peri-tumoral signals that were disrupted at the lesion's boundaries, and intra-tumoral PA signals were defined as any significant PA signals inside the tumor. SO2 was illustrated using a color scale. The study protocol was approved by the institutional review board at Kyoto University Hospital, Japan (UMIN000007464).
Results: PAM was performed on 48 breast lesions in 45 patients, including 36 invasive carcinoma lesions, 8 ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) lesions, and 4 benign lesions. Evaluations of PA signals according to the locations of the lesion, with confirmation from US or CE-MRI, were successfully performed for 38 lesions. Peri-tumoral PA signals were detected in 33 lesions (87%), disrupted boundary PA signals were detected in 30 lesions (79%), and intra-tumoral PA signals were detected in 25 lesions (66%). The detection rates for peri-tumoral, boundary and intra-tumoral PA signals were 94%, 87%, and 65% for invasive carcinoma, and 60%, 40%, and 80% for DCIS, respectively. Intra-tumoral PA signals tended to be weaker than peri-tumoral PA signals in invasive carcinoma lesions, and they often displayed a spotty rather than a linear shape. Intra-tumoral PA signals were observed to have lower SO2 levels than peri-tumoral PA signals in 95% of invasive carcinoma lesions and in 75% of DCIS lesions. Although peri-tumoral and boundary PA signals were also detected in a 38-mm fibroadenoma, the intra-tumoral PA signals displayed a diffuse pattern.
Conclusions: We demonstrated that high spatial resolution and use in combination with US and CE-MRI facilitate the region-specific evaluation of PAM imaging. PAM could become a useful tool for the evaluation of the hypoxic status of tumors by enhancing its sensitivity.

Abstract
AIM To examine the responses of mouse odontoblast-lineage cell line (OLC) cultures to xylitol-induced hypertonic stress. METHODOLOGY OLCs were treated with xylitol, sucrose, sorbitol, mannitol, arabinose and lyxose. Cell viability was evaluated using the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium assay. The expression of transient receptor potential vanilloids (TRPV) 1, 3 and 4 was detected using a reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay. The expression of aquaporin (AQP) 2 was detected using immunofluorescence and Western blotting analysis. The expression of interleukin-6 (IL-6) under xylitol-induced hypertonic stress was assessed using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Small interfering ribonucleic acid (siRNA) for AQP-2 was used to inhibition assay. RESULTS Xylitol-induced hypertonic stress did not decrease OLC viability, unlike the other sugars tested. OLCs expressed TRPV1, 3 and 4 as well as AQP2. Xylitol inhibited lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced IL-6 expression after 3 h of hypertonic stress. TRPV1 mRNA expression was upregulated by xylitol. Costimulation with HgCl2 (AQP inhibitor) and Ruthenium red (TRPV1 inhibitor) decreased cell viability with xylitol stimulation. OLCs treated with siRNA against TRPV1 exhibited decreased cell viability with xylitol stimulation. CONCLUSION OLCs have high-cell viability under xylitol-induced hypertonic stress, which may be associated with TRPV1 and AQP2 expressions.

Background: Photoacoustic mammography (PAM) is a new optical imaging technology with the potential of imaging tumor vasculature in breast cancer.The technique is applicable to the measurement of hemoglobin oxygen saturation (SO2).We have previously published an initial clinical result using a prototype machine (Canon Inc.,Tokyo, Japan) in breast cancer. We have also presented the morphological characteristics of tumor vessels analyzed by automated image processing during AACR annual meeting 2013. Here, we report the oxygenation data obtained by PAM in relation with histological assessment of tumor vasculature and hypoxia.
Methods: Forty-four breast lesions were evaluated by PAM in this IRB approved prospective study at Kyoto University Hospital, Japan. PAM evaluation was performed on both breasts whenever possible.SO2 was calculated in region of interest after the radiologist confirmed the signal was associated with the tumor location in MRI images. For the normal breast, signals obtained at the same depth of the tumor, were selected. Eighty-one histological sections from 20 available invasive carcinoma tissues at the time of this analysis were selected for immunohistochemical assessment of hypoxia by anti -carbonic anhydrase IX (CA IX) and tumor vasculature image analysis using anti-CD31. Five 0.5 mm2 area of each cancer and 3 area of normal mammary tissue associated with the same lesion were randomly selected from different sections. Total vascular area in each square was calculated by using Image Pro-Plus 7.0 software (Media Cybernetics, USA). Tumor-to-normal vascular area ratio (T/N VA) was calculated for each lesion as an index for tumor blood supply.
Results: Patients’ age ranged from 36 to 83 years old. Tumor associated signals were detected by PAM in 18 out of 20 lesions for which tissues were available for histological examination. SO2 in tumor was calculated 70.6% ±13.2 and 83.3% ±10.7 in the normal counterpart. While T/N VA ranged between 0.11 to 1.14, it was almost 3 times lower in lesions with CA IX positive cytoplasmic membrane staining (0.21 vs 0.7, p-value = 0.021 Mann-Whitney Test). Normalized tumor SO2 (tumor SO2/normal counterpart SO2) was significantly lower in the group with lower T/N VA (0.9 vs. 0.8,p-value = 0.045, Student T-test). To better evaluate the accuracy of PAM measurement in calculating SO2,3780 tumor-associated and 2835 normal microvessels were analyzed by image analysis software. Tumor associated vessels had significantly smaller area (p-value<0.001) and vessels with irregular lumens were more frequent in tumor (76.5% vs 19.6% p-value <0.001) compatible with lower SO2 in tumor areas.
Conclusion: Although the future result of our ongoing clinical studies of PAM measurement in breast cancer patients are more than necessary, the strong correlation between histological evaluation of hypoxia and angiogenesis with PAM measurement of oxygenation shows the promising prospective for clinical application of this new technology in breast cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE In periodontitis, matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are upregulated in response to locally released inflammatory cytokines, resulting in pathologic processes. Roxithromycin is a 14-membered ring macrolide antibiotic with broad-spectrum antibacterial effects against oral pathogens and immunomodulatory effects. Recently, we reported that roxithromycin inhibits tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha-induced vascular endothelial growth factor expression in human periodontal ligament (HPDL) cell cultures. In the present study, we examined the effect of roxithromycin on TNF-alpha-induced MMP-1 production by HPDL cells. MATERIAL AND METHODS Cultured cells were incubated with 1% fetal bovine serum for 24 h, followed by treatment with 10 ng/ml TNF-alpha, 10 microM roxithromycin, and mitogen-activated protein kinase inhibitor at various concentrations. Culture supernatants and sediments were collected at different time-points and used for enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays, and northern and western blot analyses. RESULTS In HPDL cell cultures, roxithromycin strongly inhibited TNF-alpha-induced MMP-1 mRNA expression and production. The inhibition of MMP-1 gene expression by roxithromycin was dependent on de novo protein synthesis and was regulated at the transcriptional level. Roxithromycin significantly inhibited TNF-alpha-induced c-Jun N-terminal kinase activation (JNP) and marginally inhibited extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) 1/2 activation, but not p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase activation. Furthermore, roxithromycin reduced the induction of Ets-1, one of the critical factors in MMP-1 transcription. CONCLUSION Roxithromycin inhibits TNF-alpha-mediated MMP-1 induction through the downregulation of ERK1/2 and JNK activation and the subsequent reduction of Ets-1, suggesting that roxithromycin may have therapeutic use in periodontitis and other chronic inflammatory conditions involving MMP-1 induction.

Abstract
Plasmodium spp. cause the worst parasitic diseases in humans and evade host immunity in complicated ways. Activated catabolism of tryptophan in dendritic cells is thought to suppress immunity, which is mediated by an inducible rate-limiting enzyme of tryptophan catabolism, indoleamine 2,3 dioxygenase (IDO), via both tryptophan depletion and production of toxic metabolites. In various infections, including malaria, IDO is known to be activated but its biological significance is unclear; therefore, we investigated whether malaria parasites induce IDO to suppress host immune responses. We found that enzymatic activity of IDO was elevated systematically in our mouse malaria model, and was abolished by in vivo IDO inhibition with 1-methyl tryptophan. Experimental infection with Plasmodium yoelii showed that IDO inhibition slightly suppressed parasite density in association with enhanced proliferation and IFN-gamma production by CD4+ T cells in response to malaria parasites. Our observations suggest that induction of IDO is one of the immune mechanisms of malaria parasites.

Abstract
A web-based version of the RLIMS-P literature mining system was developed for online mining of protein phosphorylation information from MEDLINE abstracts. The online tool presents extracted phosphorylation objects (phosphorylated proteins, phosphorylation sites and protein kinases) in summary tables and full reports with evidence-tagged abstracts. The tool further allows mapping of phosphorylated proteins to protein entries in the UniProt Knowledgebase based on PubMed ID and/or protein name. The literature mining, coupled with database association, allows retrieval of rich biological information for the phosphorylated proteins and facilitates database annotation of phosphorylation features.

Abstract
The purpose of this investigation was to investigate the rheological properties of four commercially available gutta perchas for root canal filling. The relaxation modulus [Gr(0): instantaneous shear modulus] and specific volume of their materials were examined. In addition, the quantity of heat was also studied by differential scanning calorimeter. In a lower temperature range than the first-order transition temperature (melting point), the Gr(0) values of each material were almost identical. A marked decrease of Gr(0) was observed at the melting point, and the range of the first-order transition temperature at heating was from 42.0 to 60.0 degrees C. At higher temperatures than the first-order transition temperature of each material, a considerable difference in Gr(0) values was observed. The transition temperatures obtained by the results of the Gr(0), specific volume and quantity of heat agreed with one another. A marked specific volume change was observed at the first-order transition temperature. The technique using melted gutta percha may not be favourable compared with the conventional lateral condensation technique because melted gutta percha undergoes a large amount of shrinkage during setting.

Abstract
It is difficult to exclude the possibility of malignancy of pancreatic cystic tumors because a biopsy of the pancreas is hard to obtain. The indication of open surgery for those cystic tumors without evidence of malignancy is controversial. Therefore, laparoscopic or laparoscopically assisted procedure would be an adequate choice of treatment for cystic tumors of the pancreas. Hand-assisted laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy with preservation of the spleen and the splenic artery and vein was performed for two cases of pancreatic cystic tumors. Three ports and one hand port were used. After careful dissection and accurate hemostasis between the pancreas and splenic vessels, laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy was carried out using an endoscopic linear stapler. There were no perioperative complications. The pathological diagnoses were oligocystic serous cystadenoma and solitary cystic serous cystadenoma, respectively. Hand-assisted, spleen-preserving laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy with preservation of the splenic artery and vein is a feasible procedure for the treatment of benign or borderline-malignant cystic lesions of the distal pancreas.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To detect the rhoptry and surface proteins of invasive stages of Plasmodium yoelii and P. berghei with monoclonal antibodies. METHODS Subcellular localization of antigens was detected by IFA. The antigens of different stages of the two species malaria parasites were analyzed by Western blotting. RESULTS The antigens of rhoptry are very complicated. There are similar epitopes of the rhoptry proteins detected between the two species of Plasmodium. The similar epitopes were also detected between ookinetes and merozoites of P. yoelii, and ookinete antigens between the two species. But there are different antigens detected between merozoites and ookinetes in P. yoelii. The sporozoite surface antigen of P. yoelii was not detected in the ookinetes and merozoites in the same species. CONCLUSION There are similar epitopes in the rhoptry and surface antigens of different stages and different species of rodent malaria parasites. There are also distinct antigens among them.
