Abstract
BACKGROUND Lung ischaemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury is correlated with poor clinical outcome. The inflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8, and monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) are produced by pulmonary epithelial cells during lung transplantation and are considered to be involved in I/R injury. The volatile anaesthetic sevoflurane has been shown to exert a protective effect on I/R injury in various organs. We investigated the effect of sevoflurane on the inflammatory functions of pulmonary epithelial cells in vitro. METHODS Human normal small airway epithelial cells (SAEC) were incubated under anoxic conditions for 24 h with or without sevoflurane and then stimulated with tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-α under hyperoxic conditions for 5 h with or without sevoflurane. After incubation, IL-6, IL-8, and MCP-1 mRNA expression was analysed by quantitative real-time RT-PCR. The production of IL-6, IL-8, and MCP-1 was assayed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, the effects of sevoflurane on inflammatory gene expression were examined by DNA microarray analysis, and the effects of sevoflurane on NF-κB-mediated inflammatory cytokine production were examined by immunoblotting. RESULTS Sevoflurane suppressed TNF-α-induced IL-6, IL-8, and MCP-1 gene expression and the production of IL-6 and IL-8 in SAEC under anoxia/reoxygenation conditions. DNA microarray analysis indicated that sevoflurane modulated NF-κB-related gene expression. Sevoflurane significantly inhibited TNF-α-induced translocation of p65 NF-κB into the nucleus. Sevoflurane enhanced TNF-α-induced gene expression of inhibitor κB (IκB) but not of NF-κB. CONCLUSIONS Sevoflurane suppressed the NF-κB-mediated production of pulmonary epithelial cell-derived inflammatory cytokines, including IL-6 and IL-8, which are capable of causing I/R injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Recurrence of hepatitis C after living-donor liver transplantation was investigated using technetium-99m-diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid-galactosyl human serum albumin (Tc-99m-GSA) liver scintigraphy. METHODS A 55-year-old woman with cirrhosis due to chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection underwent liver transplantation with a graft from her husband. Scintigraphy was used to determine the hepatic uptake ratio of the tracer corrected for disappearance from the blood, as well as the maximal removal rate of the tracer by hepatocytes, as parameters of hepatic functional reserve. RESULTS Conventional liver function parameters and the graft volume (computed tomography) were almost unchanged up to 18 months after transplantation. Serum HCV RNA was elevated from 3 months after transplantation, and was twofold higher at 12 months compared with 6 months. At 18 months postoperatively, liver biopsy showed an increase of histologic activity, and there was also evidence of recurrent hepatitis C. The corrected hepatic uptake ratio and maximal removal rate were decreased at 3 months postoperatively, and thereafter remained low. CONCLUSIONS The decrease of scintigraphic parameters at 3 months after transplantation suggested recurrent hepatitis C affecting the graft. Tc-99m-GSA liver scintigraphy is a useful noninvasive method for evaluating graft functional reserve.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to describe the correlation between changes in colonic motility and defecatory disorders in four experimental canine models, with an emphasis on denervation. Therefore, we constructed a model by dividing 20 healthy mongrel dogs into four groups, i.e. control, denervation, transection and anterior resection of the rectum (AR) (denervation plus transection), and focused on the correlation between colonic motility and defecatory disorders by counting the colonic migrating motor complexes (CMMCs) and colonic non-migrating motor complexes (CNMCs). Gastrointestinal and colonic contractile activities were continuously recorded on a computer with strain gauge force transducers. The dogs' feces were checked daily, and their consistency was recorded as normal, semisolid, or watery. Compared with the control group, the transection group showed elongation of the propagation time (P < 0.05), and the mean motility index of colonic contractile activity at C4 and C5 in the denervation group was greater than that in the control group (P < 0.05). The AR group showed three features of colonic motility: (i) elongation of the mean CMMC cycle (P < 0.05); (ii) shortening of the propagation time (P < 0.05); and (iii) increment of the number of CNMCs. Concerning fecal consistency, the AR group only showed watery diarrhoea. In conclusion, we revealed the existence of a correlation between defecatory disorders and changes in colonic motility. Increased knowledge among colorectal surgeons of the changes in colonic motility that occur following colorectal surgery is very important and could lead to the curtailment of defecatory disorders among patients.

Abstract
We have developed a new and effective method for bone marrow transplantation (BMT): bone marrow cells (BMCs) are injected directly into the bone marrow (BM) cavity of recipient mice. The intrabone marrow injection of BMCs (IBM-BMT) greatly facilitates the engraftment of donor-derived cells, and IBM-BMT can attenuate graft-versus-host reaction (GVHR), in contrast to conventional intravenous BMT (i.v.-BMT). Here, we examine the mechanisms underlying the inhibitory effects of IBM-BMT on GVHR using animal models where GVHR is elicited. Recipient mice (C57BL/6) were irradiated and splenic T cells (as donor lymphocyte infusion: DLI) from major histocompatibility complex-disparate donors (BALB/c) were injected directly into the BM cavity (IBM-DLI) or injected intravenously (i.v.-DLI) along with IBM-BMT. The BM stromal cells (BMSCs) from these recipients were collected and related cytokines were examined. The recipient mice that had been treated with IBM-BMT + i.v.-DLI showed severe graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), in contrast to those treated with IBM-BMT + IBM-DLI. The suppressive activity of BMSCs in this GVHD model was determined. The cultured BMSCs from the recipients treated with IBM-BMT + IBM-DLI suppressed the proliferation of responder T cells remarkably when compared with those from the recipients of IBM-BMT + i.v.-DLI in mixed leucocyte reaction. Furthermore, the level of transforming growth factor-beta and hepatocyte growth factor in cultured BMSCs from IBM-BMT + IBM-DLI increased significantly when compared with those from the recipients of IBM-BMT + i.v.-DLI. Thus, the prevention of GVHD observed in the recipients of IBM-BMT + IBM-DLI was attributable to the increased production of immunosuppressive cytokines from BMSCs after interaction with host reactive T cells (in DLI).

Abstract
7681 Background: Recent randomized control trials have shown a survival benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with stage II or more advanced NSCLC, while surgery alone is still the standard therapy for stage I patients. There is, however, a subgroup of patients among the stage I patients who have a poor prognosis, for whom adjuvant chemotherapy can be as effective as has been observed for the patients with more advanced disease. Preoperative serum CEA level has been reported to be an independent prognostic factor for stage I NSCLC. However, many other tumor markers have also been reported as prognostic indicators in different studies using different tumor markers. It is unknown which tumor marker is the most effective for selecting poor prognostic subgroup of patients with stage I NSCLC for which adjuvant chemotherapy can be applied. Methods: A total of 355 patients underwent complete resection, and were diagnosed as having stage I NSCLC from 1995 to 2003. Analyzed tumor markers included CEA, Cyfra21–1, SCC, CA19–9, SCC, CA125, TPA, NSE, and SLX. Cut-off values for each tumor marker are listed in the table . Clinicopathologic factors including age, gender, histology, vessel invasion, pleural invasion, and pathologic T indicator are also analyzed in the multivariate analysis. Results: Among the 355 patients, 211 patients were male, 249 had adenocarcinoma, 82 had squamous cell carcinoma, and 253 had pathologic T1 tumors. Percentages of elevated value for each tumor marker are listed in the table in combination with related survival data. Cox proportional hazard model demonstrated age, pleural invasion, histology, and CEA were significantly independent prognostic factors. Conclusions: CEA is thought to be the best tumor marker for selecting the poor prognostic subgroup of patients with resected stage I NSCLC because of its high percentage of abnormal value and high ability to differentiate prognostic subgroups. No significant financial relationships to disclose. [Table: see text]

Abstract
Xenin is a 25-amino acid peptide isolated from human gastric mucosa. The biological activities of xenin include modulating intestinal motility and affecting exocrine pancreatic secretion and gastric acid secretion. The physiological effect of xenin on the gastrointestinal tract, however, is incomplete. The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of xenin on the gastrointestinal tract motility of conscious dogs. Gastrointestinal tract and gallbladder contractions were monitored by chronically implanted force transducers. Synthetic xenin was injected intravenously during the interdigestive state with or without pretreatment with cholinergic blockers. The effects of xenin following cholecystectomy and truncal vagotomy were also investigated. Xenin induced gallbladder and jejunal contractions, although a dose-dependent response was shown only with gallbladder contractions. These effects were inhibited by pretreatment with cholinergic blockers, but were not enhanced by truncal vagotomy. The jejunal contractions were completely inhibited by cholecystectomy. The only direct effect of xenin in terms of gastrointestinal motility was to induce gallbladder contractions in conscious dogs. The neural pathway mediating xenin's action was cholinergic, but not the vagal. This novel finding indicates a new role of xenin.

Abstract
Both paclitaxel and S-1 are effective against gastric cancer, but the optimal regimen for combined chemotherapy with these drugs remains unclear. This phase I/II study was designed to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), recommended dose (RD), dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), and objective response rate of paclitaxel in combination with S-1. S-1 was administered orally at a fixed dose of 80 mg m-2 day-1 from days 1 to 14 of a 28-day cycle. Paclitaxel was given intravenously on days 1, 8, and 15, starting with a dose of 40 mg m-2 day-1. The dose was increased in a stepwise manner to 70 mg m-2. Treatment was repeated every 4 weeks unless disease progression was confirmed. In the phase I portion, 17 patients were enrolled. The MTD of paclitaxel was estimated to be 70 mg m-2 because 40% of the patients given this dose level (two of five) had DLT. The RD was determined to be 60 mg m-2. In the phase II portion, 24 patients, including five with assessable disease who received the RD in the phase I portion, were evaluated. The median number of treatment courses was six (range: 1-17). The incidence of the worst-grade toxicity in patients given the RD was 28 and 8%, respectively. All toxic effects were manageable. The response rate was 54.1%, and the median survival time was 15.5 months. Our phase I/II trial showed that S-1 combined with paclitaxel is effective and well tolerated in patients with advanced gastric cancer.

Abstract
We have established a new method for allogeneic pancreatic islet (PI) transplantation: relatively low doses of irradiation followed by simultaneous transplantation of PIs and bone marrow cells (BMCs) via the portal vein (PV). In the present study, we have compared this method with intra-bone marrow (IBM)-bone marrow transplantation (BMT), and with a combination of both methods. Streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic-recipient rats, Fischer 344 (F344, RT1A(l), RT1B(l)), were irradiated 1 day before transplantation. PIs of Brown Norway rats (BN, RT1A(n), RT1B(n)) were transplanted into the liver of the diabetic F344 rats via the PV. BMCs from BN rats were injected into the recipients' bone marrow (IBM), PV or intravenously (IV) or by a simultaneous combination of PV plus IBM (PV+IBM). We compared graft survival among the groups of '9 Gy+IBM'(10/10 accepted), '9 Gy+PV'(7/10 accepted), '9 Gy+IV'(0/7 accepted), '9 Gy+PV+IBM'(8/8 accepted), '8.5 Gy+IBM'(4/9 accepted), '8.5 Gy+PV'(0/7 accepted), '8.5 Gy+IV'(0/7 accepted), '8.5 Gy+PV+IBM'(9/12 accepted), '8 Gy+IBM'(2/10 accepted) and '8 Gy+PV+IBM'(2/8 accepted). As we reported previously, PV-BMT is more effective in inducing the acceptance of allogeneic PIs than IV-BMT. However, IBM-BMT requires less pretreatment than PV-BMT. (PV+IBM)-BMT was found to be the most effective in inducing the acceptance of allogeneic PIs. These results suggest that allogeneic PI-transplantation in conjunction with (PV+IBM)-BMT could become a viable strategy.

Abstract
Our objective was to analyze problems in the perioperative management and long-term outcome of living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) for biliary atresia (BA). Many reports have described the effectiveness of liver transplantation (LT) for BA, particularly in pediatric cases, but little information is available regarding LT in adults (> or =16 years old). Between June 1990 and December 2004, 464 patients with BA underwent LDLT at Kyoto University Hospital, of whom 47 (10.1%) were older than 16 years. In this study, we compared the outcomes between adult (> or =16 years old) and pediatric (<16 years old) patients. The incidence of post-transplant intestinal perforation, intra-abdominal bleeding necessitating repeat laparotomy and biliary leakage was significantly higher (p < 0.0001, <0.001 and <0.001, respectively) in adults. Overall cumulative 1-, 5- and 10-year survival rates in pediatric patients were significantly higher (p < 0.005) than in adults. Two independent prognostic determinants of survival were identified: a MELD score over 20 and post-transplant complications requiring repeat laparotomy. Outcome of LDLT in adult BA patients was poorer than in pediatric patients. It seems likely that LT will be the radical treatment of choice for BA and that LDLT should be considered proactively at the earliest possible stage.
