Abstract
Dopamine (DA) is produced from tyrosine by tyrosine hydroxylase (TH). A recent study has reported that DA promotes the mineralization of murine preosteoblasts. However, the role of DA in odontoblasts has not been examined. Therefore, in this investigation, we researched the expression of TH and DA in odontoblasts and the effects of DA on the differentiation of preodontoblasts (KN-3 cells). Immunostaining showed that TH and DA were intensely expressed in odontoblasts and preodontoblasts of rat incisors and molars. KN-3 cells expressed D1-like and D2-like receptors for DA. Furthermore, DA promoted odontoblastic differentiation of KN-3 cells, whereas an antagonist of D1-like receptors and a PKA signaling blocker, inhibited such differentiation. However, antagonists of D2-like receptors promoted differentiation. These results suggested that DA in preodontoblasts and odontoblasts might promote odontoblastic differentiation through D1-like receptors, but not D2-like receptors, and PKA signaling in an autocrine or paracrine manner and plays roles in dentinogenesis.

Abstract
Abstract
Background/Introduction
Although high platelet reactivity (HPR) seems to be associated with adverse cardiovascular events after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), the relationship between post-procedure HPR with prasugrel loading and clinical outcomes in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is still unclear. Moreover, factors contributing to HPR in ACS with prasugrel loading are also unknown.
Purpose
This study aimed to assess the impact of post-procedure HPR with prasugrel loading on clinical outcomes in ACS during hospitalization, as well as to define appropriate cut-off values and identify factors contributing to HPR.
Methods
We performed a single-centre, retrospective observational study that enrolled 132 patients who underwent emergent PCI for ACS with prasugrel loading. The P2Y12 reaction unit (PRU) value was measured immediately after PCI with the VerifyNowR System. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiac events (MACE, defined as the composite of death, myocardial infarction, stroke, heart failure, ventricular arrhythmia needing defibrillation).
Results
Mean patient age (standard deviation) was 70.7 (±12.5) years, 76% were male, and average time from prasugrel intake to PRU calculation was 101 (±48.8) min. During a mean hospital stay of 15.4 (±8.0) days, there were 22 (16%) MACE events and 6 (4%) deaths. The post-procedure PRU value was 241±66. HPR was significantly higher in MACE group than non-MACE group [287 (±55) vs 232 (±64), p<0.001]. The ROC curve analysis of PRU for discriminating significant in-hospital MACE showed a cut off value of 293 (sensitivity: 64%, specificity: 84% [AUC=0.764, p<0.0001]). Thus, 33 patients (25%) were found to have HPR (PRU>293) immediately after emergent PCI. Kaplan-Meier curve analysis showed MACE events occurred more frequently in the HPR group than in the non-HPR group (42% vs 8%, log rank p<0.001). Multiple Cox regression analysis showed that peak creatine phosphokinase >3,000 U/L and HPR were independent predictors of MACE in patients with ACS who underwent PCI (OR 4.96, 95% CI 1.86–13.26, p=0.001, and OR 7.52, 95% CI 2.73–20.7, p<0.0001, respectively). HPR was significantly correlated with age, female sex, and reference lumen short diameter (pre-dilation) used in PCI.
Conclusion
HPR was significantly associated with adverse event during hospitalization in ACS patients. Female patients with large culprit lesion diameter were more likely to have HPR. Appropriate cut-off value of HPR in this study was 293. HPR in early-phase of ACS with prasugrel loading is a useful predictor of adverse events during hospitalization.

Abstract
Coupling of charge and spin degrees of freedom is a critical feature of correlated electron oxides, as represented by the spin-related mechanism of a Cooper pair under high-T c superconductivity. A doublon-holon pair generated on an antiferromagnetic spin background is also predicted to attract each other via the spin-spin interaction J, similar to a Cooper pair, while its evidence is difficult to obtain experimentally. Here, we investigate such an excitonic effect by electroreflectance spectroscopy using terahertz electric field pulses in undoped cuprates: Nd2CuO4, Sr2CuO2Cl2, and La2CuO4. Analyses of the spectral changes of reflectivity under electric fields reveal that the splitting of odd-parity and even-parity excitons, a measure of doublon-holon binding energy, increases with J. This trend is reproduced by t-J-type model calculations, providing strong evidence of the spin-related doublon-holon pairing. Agreement with the calculations supports the s-wave symmetry of the doublon-holon pair in contrast to the d-wave Cooper pair in doped cuprates.

Abstract
Quantum triangular-lattice antiferromagnets are important prototype systems to investigate numerous phenomena of the geometrical frustration in condensed matter. Apart from highly unusual magnetic properties, they possess a rich phase diagram (ranging from an unfrustrated square lattice to a quantum spin liquid), yet to be confirmed experimentally. One major obstacle in this area of research is the lack of materials with appropriate (ideally tuned) magnetic parameters. Using Cs2CuCl4 as a model system, we demonstrate an alternative approach, where, instead of the chemical composition, the spin Hamiltonian is altered by hydrostatic pressure. The approach combines high-pressure electron spin resonance and r.f. susceptibility measurements, allowing us not only to quasi-continuously tune the exchange parameters, but also to accurately monitor them. Our experiments indicate a substantial increase of the exchange coupling ratio from 0.3 to 0.42 at a pressure of 1.8 GPa, revealing a number of emergent field-induced phases. Theoretical studies of quantum magnetism typically assume idealised lattices with freely tunable parameters, which are difficult to realise experimentally. Zvyagin et al. perform challenging measurements at high pressures to tune and to accurately monitor the exchange parameters of a triangular lattice antiferromagnet.

Abstract
We developed a microwave oscillator and a micro electromechanical systems-based rubidium cell for the miniaturization of atomic clocks. A thin-film bulk acoustic resonator (FBAR) having a resonant frequency of the fundamental mode in the 3.5 GHz band was employed instead of a crystal resonator. It delivers a clock transition frequency of Rb atoms of 3.417 GHz without the need for a complicated frequency multiplication using a phase-locked loop. This topology considerably reduces the system scale and power consumption. For downsizing the atomic clock system toward the chip level as well as mass production, a microfabricated gas cell containing Rb and N2 gases was also developed. These microcomponents were incorporated into an atomic clock test bench, resulting in a clock operation with a short-term frequency instability of 2.1 × 10-11 at 1 s. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of a coherent population trapping clock operation using an FBAR-based microwave oscillator as well as a microfabricated gas cell.

Abstract
A flexible light guide was developed for an ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor) poloidal polarimeter which is a passive laser beam alignment and stabilization system for free-space propagation of a wide range of wavelengths. The advantages of using a flexible light guide are (1) to compensate the relative movement between the floor of a building and an optical table, (2) to negate assembly error of the optical transmission line, (3) to minimize the time required for assembly of the line and laser position alignment in a radiological environment, and (4) to transmit a wide wavelength range from visible to far-infrared. The authors fabricated a flexible light guide with an inner diameter of 120 mm and with a motion range of 10 cm. Pointing stability of the laser beam passing through the flexible light guide was less than 70 μrad when the support moved ±50 mm. A flexible light guide error of 70 μrad leads to a beam position displacement of 0.98 mm at a beam position steering mirror ITER poloidal polarimeter that is located 14 m from the flexible light guide. The achieved error is stable enough to guide the laser beam to its target in ITER.

Abstract
In optics, a light beam experiences a spatial shift in the beam plane upon total internal reflection. This shift is usually referred to as the Goos-Hänchen shift. When dealing with plane waves, it manifests itself as a phase shift between an incoming and reflected wave that depends on the wave vector component along the interface. In the experiments presented here, plane spin waves are excited in a 60-nm-thick Permalloy film and propagate towards the edge of the film. By means of time-resolved scanning Kerr microscopy, we are able to directly detect a phase shift between the incoming and reflected wave. With the help of a numerical model, we show that this phase shift naturally occurs for spin waves in the dipolar regime.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Although inflammatory markers, such as the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio and local immune markers have been shown to have prognostic utility, limited information is available regarding inflammatory and pre-existing tumour-infiltrating lymphocyte density and their association with prognosis in patients with hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma. We investigated the prognostic ability of inflammatory markers and tumour-infiltrating lymphocyte density in stage III and stage IV hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma patients receiving definitive treatment. DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING Kurume University Hospital. PARTICIPANTS Ninety-six stage III or stage IV hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma patients treated at the Kurume University Hospital between 2000 and 2014. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Inflammatory markers and pre-treatment tumour-infiltrating lymphocyte density were examined from recorded haematologic data and immunohistochemical analysis. RESULTS Multivariate analyses showed that the CD8+ tumour-infiltrating lymphocyte density was an independent predictive factor for distant metastasis and overall survival, whereas inflammatory markers, including the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio, were not correlated with distant metastasis or overall survival. CONCLUSIONS Higher pre-treatment CD8+ tumour-infiltrating lymphocyte density is a useful predictive biomarker for reduced distant metastasis and better prognosis.

Abstract
Lophiostoma bipolare was taxonomically revised based on the morphological observations and phylogenetic analyses of molecular data from nuclear rDNA SSU-ITS-LSU, TUB, tef1, and rpb2 genes. Twenty-nine strains were morphologically similar to Lo. bipolare. A total of 174 sequences were generated from the Lo. bipolare complex. Phylogenetic analyses based on TUB sequence revealed 11 distinct species within the Lo. bipolare complex. Morphological features of the ascospores and the anatomical structure of the ascomata from both field collections as well as axenic culture, which have been reported previously as variable features at intraspecific levels, were compared to evaluate the taxonomic reliability of these features. To clarify the generic position of the 11 species, phylogenetic analyses were done on SSU-ITS-LSU-tef1-rpb2 gene sequences. The Lo. bipolare complex shared phylogenetic relationships with Pseudolophiostoma and Vaginatispora, and formed an additional five distinct clades from other members of Lophiostomataceae. According to its phylogenetic position, Lo. bipolare sensu stricto was distantly related to Lophiostoma s. str., and formed an independent clade within Lophiostomataceae. Lophiostoma bipolare s. str. could be distinguished from the other lophiostomataceous genera by the clypeus around the ostiolar neck and by the thin and uniformly thick peridium. A novel genus described as Lentistoma was established to accommodate this species, and the epitypification of Lentistoma bipolare (basionym: Massarina bipolaris) was proposed. Other lineages of the Lo. bipolare complex could not be separated on the basis of the ascospore size and sheath variations, but were distinguished based on ascomatal features, such as the existence of the clypeus, brown hyphae surrounding the peridium, and the contexture of the peridium, which were stable indicators of generic boundaries in Lophiostomataceae. Four additional new genera with five new species were recognised based on these morphological differences: Crassiclypeus (C. aquaticus), Flabellascoma (F. cycadicola and F. minimum), Leptoparies (Lep. palmarum), and Pseudopaucispora (Pseudop. brunneospora). Three new species were added to Pseudolophiostoma (Pseudol. cornisporum, Pseudol. obtusisporum, and Pseudol. tropicum) and two new species were added to Vaginatispora (V. amygdali and V. scabrispora). The re-evaluation of the validity of several previously recognised genera resulted in the introduction of two new genera with new combinations for Lophiostoma pseudoarmatisporum as Parapaucispora pseudoarmatispora and Vaginatispora fuckelii as Neovaginatispora fuckelii.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The intradermal (ID) route for vaccination represents an effective alternative to subcutaneous (SC)/intramuscular administration to induce protective immunity. However, a critical issue associated with ID vaccination is the precise delivery of solution in the upper dermis, which ensures enhanced immunity. METHODS We fabricated a hollow microneedle unit made of poly-glycolic acid by injection molding and bonding, and created a dedicated prototype injector. To ensure ID delivery of solution, the injected site was macroscopically and microscopically examined. Serum immunoglobulin G antibody production was measured by enzyme immunoassay and compared in groups of rats following either ID delivery with microneedles or SC administration with a 27-G stainless needle of graded vaccine doses. RESULTS The unit used a tandem array of six microneedles, each with a side delivery hole, and a conduit inside for solution. Microneedles installed in the injector punctured the skin with the aid of a spring. Injection of solution formed a wheal due to ID distribution. Histologically, a wedge-shaped skin defect in the upper skin corresponded to each puncture site. Antibody titers following vaccinations on days 1 and 8 were significantly higher with ID injection than with SC delivery on day 15 and every 7 days thereafter until day 36 with mumps vaccination, and until day 36 with varicella vaccination. CONCLUSIONS The microneedle unit presented here delivered solution intradermally without any difficulty and evoked antibody responses against viruses even with the reduced vaccine volume. Our findings confirm promising results of ID delivery as an immunogenic option to enhance vaccination efficacy.

Abstract
Electric field effects on magnetism in metals have attracted widespread attention, but the microscopic mechanism is still controversial. We experimentally show the relevancy between the electric field effect on magnetism and on the electronic structure in Pt in a ferromagnetic state using element-specific measurements: x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) and x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS). Electric fields are applied to the surface of ultrathin metallic Pt, in which a magnetic moment is induced by the ferromagnetic proximity effect resulting from a Co underlayer. XMCD and XAS measurements performed under the application of electric fields reveal that both the spin and orbital magnetic moments of Pt atoms are electrically modulated, which can be explained not only by the electric-field-induced shift of the Fermi level but also by the change in the orbital hybridizations.

Abstract
In this study, a co-culture system of hepatocytes and bone marrow cells (BMCs) was developed and characterized for the expression and maintenance of ammonia metabolism and albumin secretion activities. A culture medium supplemented with epidermal growth factor, insulin, L-proline, hydrocortisone and 20 % (v/v) heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum was developed. In addition to adhesive bone marrow cells, the co-existence of non-adhesive bone marrow cells was effective in expressing liver-specific functions for at least 3 weeks. On the other hand, experiments with Transwell in which cultured cells were separated by a semi-permeable membrane, suggested that soluble factors secreted by BMCs are the key components in the functional enhancement of cells. Furthermore, direct contact between hepatocytes and BMCs enhanced the formation of spheroids and the expression of liver specific functions. These results indicate that this co-culture system is promising in, for example, bioartificial liver, regenerative medicine, and liver function simulator applications.
