Abstract
The in vitro antibacterial activities of cefoperazone (CPZ) against clinical isolates including various beta-lactamase-producing strains were studied and compared with those of cefotiam (CTM). CPZ had a broad spectrum against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. Especially, CPZ showed apparently more potent antibacterial activities than CTM against Enterobacter cloacae, Serratia marcescens, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. However, CPZ was less active than CTM against Staphylococcus aureus and Proteus mirabilis. The stability and affinity of CPZ for various types of beta-lactamase were also studied. CPZ was more resistant to hydrolysis by typical cephalosporinase (CSase) and cefuroximase (CXase) than CTM, but was less stable to penicillinase (PCase). CPZ often showed higher affinity to beta-lactamases than CTM. The study for the inducer-activity revealed that CPZ hardly induced CSase production in E. cloacae and Proteus vulgaris while CTM highly induced in both strains. CPZ was more active against CSase-producers than CTM, especially against strains which inducibly produced the enzyme. It was speculated that this activity was responsible for the superior stability to CSase and low inducer-activity for CSase production.

Abstract
The in vivo antibacterial activity of cefoperazone (CPZ) against systemic infections was studied in comparison with that of cefotiam (CTM) using beta-lactamase non-producing bacteria and producing bacteria. In vitro antibacterial activity of CPZ against Gram-positive bacteria was slightly inferior to that of CTM, but there was no significant difference between their in vivo activities. On the other hand, the therapeutic effect of CPZ against Gram-negative bacteria was nearly parallel to in vitro antibacterial activity and particularly was superior to that of CTM against cephalosporinase (CSase) producing bacteria. The ascitic levels of CPZ in mice infected with CSase producing bacteria were persisted longer, but those of CTM disappeared quickly after administration. This result appeared to reflect on the therapeutic effects of both drugs.

Abstract
A method is described for estimating the spectra of pure components from the spectra of unknown mixtures with various relative concentrations. This method is based on principal component analysis and a constrained nonlinear optimization technique and is applicable to qualitative analysis of mixtures of more than three components. The method gives two curves as the estimate of a component spectrum: one consists of the set of the maxima and the other consists of the set of the minima for all sampling points subject to a priori information. Experimental results of the estimation of the infrared absorption spectra of xylene-isomer mixtures are shown; the noise problem with this method is also discussed.

Abstract
The maximum entropy method (MEM) is applied to the interferogram data obtained using the technique of Fourier transform spectroscopy for estimating its spectrum with a resolution far exceeding the value set by the spectrometer. For emission line data, the MEM process is directly used with the interferogram data in place of the regular Fourier transformation process required in Fourier transform spectroscopy. It produces a spectral estimate with an enhanced resolution. For absorption data with a broad background spectrum, the method is applied to a modified interferogram which corresponds to the Fourier transform of the absorptance spectrum. Two results are presented to demonstrate the power of the technique: for the visible emission spectrum of a spectral calibration lamp and for the infrared chloroform absorption spectrum. Included in the paper is a discussion of the problems associated with practical use of the MEM.

Abstract
Rabbit hippocampus was chronically stimulated with implanted electrodes until interictal EEG spikes were kindled in it. The kindled hippocampus was then studied in acute experiments. Stimulation of the median raphe nucleus and that of the opposite hippocampus produced EEG spikes, whose intracellular correlates were hyperpolarizations of pyramidal cells (referred to as inhibitory EEG spikes).

Abstract
Herein we report a 36-year-old man with hyperparathyroidism and a past history of internal irradiation to the thyroid. Twelve years previously at age 24 years he had received 8 mCi of radioactive iodine for Graves' disease. An additional dose of 4 mCi was required 3 years later. A right lower parathyroid adenoma (28 X 23 X 20 mm, 5.7 g) was found at neck exploration. Although the association of external ionizing radiation to the head and neck and the subsequent development of hyperfunctioning parathyroid glands has been described in recent years, there are only 4 cases in the literature of parathyroid surgery for hyperparathyroidism secondary to earlier treatment with radioactive iodine for Graves' disease. In a long-term follow-up of 180 patients treated with radioactive iodine for Graves' disease, neither hypercalcemia nor hypophosphatemia was found. Whether internal radiation therapy can be a causative factor in the development of hyperparathyroidism should be elucidated in future. However, it seems reasonable to suggest that patients whose hyperthyroidism has been treated with radioactive iodine should have their serum calcium levels examined at 5-year intervals.

Abstract
Three mouse hybridomas producing cytotoxic antibodies against HLA were established. By standard microcytotoxicity test against panels of normal controls, the antigen defined by MA-9 antibody (IgM) showed a good correlation with HLA-A9 alloantigen detected by conventional typing alloantisera (r = 1.0). Family studies also showed that MA-9 determinant segregated with HLA-A9. MA-10 antibody (IgM) reacted with all HLA-A10 positive lymphocyte donors and cross-reacted with two thirds of HLA-AW33 positive donors. Ml-1 antibody (IgG2a) reacted with all the panel cells tested and immunoprecipitated a molecule of 43,000 daltons from Nonidet P-40 lysates of 3H-glucosamine-labelled cells. The results showed that MA-9 and MA-10 antibodies can be used as routine tissue typing reagents.

Abstract
The inducer activity of seven penicillins for cephalosporinase (CSase) production and their antibacterial activity against CSase-producing strains were studied using clinical isolates of Proteus morganii, P. rettgeri, P. vulgaris, Enterobacter cloacae, and Serratia marcescens. Piperacillin, apalcillin, and methicillin showed rather low inducer activity for CSase production in all strains tested. On the other hand, ampicillin, carbenicillin, and sulbenicillin showed high inducer activity for CSase production. Piperacillin, apalcillin, and ampicillin were less stable to CSases than were carbenicillin, sulbenicillin, and methicillin, but much more stable than benzylpenicillin. In the growing culture of CSase-producing strains, piperacillin and apalcillin were rather stable. Against CSase-producing strains, piperacillin and apalcillin were more active than other penicillins tested.

Abstract
The rabbit pyrogen test (specified in the pharmacopeia) and the Limulus amebocyte lysate (LAL) test are influenced by high concentrations of certain antibiotics. Therefore, it has not been possible to detect trace amounts of endotoxin which may contaminate these antibiotics. To detect trace amounts of endotoxin in injectable sodium ampicillin, an ultrafiltration technique was utilized which removed the antibiotic and left a solution which contained predominantly the endotoxin. After ultrafiltration, a trace amount of pyrogen (which otherwise could not be detected) was found using both the rabbit pyrogen and the LAL tests. The endotoxin was also determined quantitatively using a chromogenic endotoxin reagent which is made by combining the Limulus amebocyte lysate and a synthetic substrate with a suitable chromophore.

Abstract
The human HL-60 cell line derived from acute promyelocytic leukemia, consisting of promyelocytic type of cells, was able to differentiate into adherent cells with monocytemacrophage features by the treatment with 12-0-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13-acetate (TPA). Cell surface antigens of HL-60 cells before and after TPA treatment were studied with monoclonal antibodies and four hybridoma clones producing IgM antibodies were established. Two antibodies (HL-21 and HL-47) reacted only with the immunizing TPA-treated HL-60 cells, and HL-1 antibody produced against untreated cells was reactive with both TPA-treated and untreated cells, but HL-5 antibody reacted predominantly with the immunizing untreated cells. Serological reactivity against various types of normal hematopoietic cells and acute leukemias (diagnosed by the French-American-British classification) was studied by immune adherence assay and immuno-electron microscopy. HL-21 antibody was reactive with monocytes and most cases of M4 and M5 types of acute non-lymphocytic leukemia cells. HL-47 antibody did not react with the cells of myelocyte-monocyte lineage or mature lymphocytes, but it did react with one-third of acute lymphocytic leukemia (L1 and L2) cases. Since all HL-47+ cases were included in the group of common ALL antigen positive cases, it was estimated that HL-47 is a differentiation antigen present on lymphocyte precursors, from which null-cell type acute lymphocytic leukemia cells generally originate. HL-1 antibody reacted with the cells of myelocyte-monocyte lineage as well as those of most acute non-lymphocytic leukemias. HL-5 antibody reacted with granulocytes and M2 type of acute myelocytic leukemia cases, and also with M5 type of acute monocytic leukemia cases. Serological studies of these antibodies revealed that TPA can induce to differentiate HL-60 cells not only into HL-21+ macrophage-like cells, but also into HL-47+ lymphoid stem cells. In addition, these antibodies were demonstrated to be very valuable for differential diagnosis of acute leukemias.

Abstract
EEG spikes and their intracellular correlates were studied in both normal and kindled hippocampi (i.e., the hippocampi subjected to daily electrical stimulation) of rabbits. Many of the EEG spikes observed were referred to as inhibitory EEG spikes, because their intracellular correlates were hyperpolarizations of pyramidal cells. In most cases, these hyperpolarizations occurred without any preceding spikes, but could be led by a single spike. They were, however, never preceded by a spike burst. Inhibitory EEG spikes occurred in both normal and kindled hippocampi. In both cases, they not only appeared spontaneously, but were also induced by brain stem stimulation. Regardless of whether they appeared spontaneously or were induced by stimulation, the inhibitory EEG spikes and the corresponding hyperpolarizations were much larger in magnitude in the kindled than in the normal hippocampus. Consequently, it was concluded that enhancement of inhibition was one of the features of the kindled hippocampus.

Abstract
The results of the brace treatment (Milwaukee brace, Thoraco-Lumbo-Sacral-Orthosis, Boston-Milwaukee brace) were studied in 509 patients with idiopathic scoliosis, who were braces for an average of 3 years and 3 months ranging from 2 to 10 years. Of these patients, 60 were followed up for about 24 months after the brace was discontinued. The distribution of these patients according to curve pattern was as follows: 319 had thoracic curve; 78 had lumbar curve (combining lumbar and thoracolumbar curves together as one group); and 112 had double major curve. The findings are summarized and conclusions were drawn as follows. 1. The best correction was obtained within a year after the initiation of bracing, followed by a gradual loss of correction. 2. There was a significant difference between the final correction rate and the best correction rate in the brace. 3. In the patients with ages ranging from 11 to 14 years and with curves of 30 degrees or less at the beginning of brace treatment, the curves were maintained within 30 degrees at the final stage. 4. Those patients who cooperated well in wearing their braces had a smaller loss of correction at the final stage. 5. In 63 per cent of the cases who showed progression in the brace, iliac apophysis did not appear at the beginning of brace treatment. 6. Moiré topography was used for the analysis of cosmesis and it was shown to be a valuable method of three dimensional evaluation. 7. In 60 patients who were followed up for 24 months on average after the brace was discontinued, the curves had improved an average of 1.6 degrees at the time of their last check up.

Abstract
According to the blocking test for proximity of cell surface antigens, L1210 leukemia-associated antigen was not linked to molecules carrying H-2d antigen or murine leukemia virus-associated antigen, but there was a close association between HVJ-associated antigen and L1210 leukemia-associated antigen on the surface membrane of HVJ-pi-infected L1210 leukemia cells. Once L1210 leukemia cells were infected with HVJ-pi, their adsorptive power was found to be greater than that of uninfected cells by quantitative absorption analysis. These phenomena may lead to a better recognition by the host of L1210 leukemia-associated antigen, followed by generation of tumor immunity.
