Abstract
This report proposes an efficient in vitro method for the evaluation of drug targeting with monoclonal antibody as a carrier to tumor cells. Monoclonal antibody (35G; IgG2a) selectively binding to alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) from human hepatoma cells (HuH-7) was conjugated with an anticancer drug, vindesine (VDS). Human tumor clonogenic assay (HTCA) with some modifications was applied to estimate the targeting efficiency of a conjugate (VDS-35G) for the first time. In this assay, VDS-35G was cytotoxically active against HuH-7 cells at a lower concentration (0.5 ng/ml) and for a shorter contact time than VDS (50 ng/ml), while 35G and VDS-normal mouse immunoglobulin conjugate (VDS-n-IgG) were not active against the cells. Both VDS-35G and VDS-n-IgG were inactive against HuH-13 cells established from a human hepatocellular carcinoma producing no AFP. In the conventional monolayer culture assay (MCA), VDS-35G showed little effect on HuH-7 cells at the concentration effective in HTCA. The cytotoxic activity of VDS in MCA was similar to that in HTCA but the cytotoxic activity of VDS-35G in MCA was considerably different from that in HTCA. This discrepancy could be explained by the hypothesis that VDS-35G was directed at stem cells of the HuH-7 cell population sensitively and selectively. HTCA was shown to be a useful in vitro evaluation method for drug targeting.

Abstract
This paper describes the finding of monoclonal antibody (MoAb) more reactive to cell-surface alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) than to free AFP by using a simple in vitro system. Twelve mouse MoAbs, ten IgG1, one IgG2a and one IgG2b, against human AFP from hepatocellular carcinoma were obtained by the cell fusion technique. Each hybridoma supernatant was assayed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to solid-phase AFP. The assay results showed that two MoAbs, 67D and 80G, were most reactive to AFP. 80G had a higher affinity constant than 67D, while the both reactions were similarly difficult to inhibit by free AFP in ELISA. 67D and 80G reacted with AFP on the surface of ethanol-fixed cells from the human hepatoma cell line HuH-7 and this reaction was also difficult to inhibit by free AFP in Cell ELISA. Furthermore, Western blot analysis showed that 67D and 80G were more reactive to membrane-bound AFP than other antibodies. These findings first suggest that there could be anti-AFP MoAbs preferably binding to cell-surface AFP rather than to serum AFP.

Abstract
The colonic absorption of menaquinones was examined in rats by the in situ loop method. The overall disappearance of [14C]menaquinone-4 from the colonal loop was approximately 6% at 3 h and much slower than that of menadione. After administration of [14C]menaquinone-4 into the jejunal loop with bile, approximately 17% of unchanged menaquinone-4 was recovered in the lymph after 6 h, but none was found when the administration had been into the colonal loop. Portal absorption of menaquinone-4 from the colon was detected and the unchanged form (approximately 23% of the absorbed radioactivity) was identified in the mesenteric venous blood. When menaquinone-9 was administered into the colon, almost all was recovered from the colonal loop. No transfer of menaquinone-9 from the colon into the lymph or blood was observed at 6 h after dosing. The present observations indicate that only a part of bacterially produced menaquinones is absorbed from the colon via the portal pathway, but the absorption rates of menaquinones decrease markedly with an increase in the number of isoprenoid units.

Abstract
The morphological properties of poly(beta-hydroxybutyric acid) (PHB) or poly(L-lactic acid) microspheres loading flomoxef sodium (FMOX) were investigated with regard to FMOX release. The release profiles of FMOX from the microspheres could be divided into two types, a sustained release type and a burst one. Two representative PHB microspheres, the release profiles of which were quite different from those of FMOX, were compared in detail from a morphological point of view. The shapes of their surfaces and sections were observed by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and FMOX distribution was analyzed by using electron probe microanalysis. The crystallinity of polymers was further measured by powder X-ray diffratometry. There was little difference in the FMOX distribution and their microscopic properties such as sphere size, specific surface area, shape of surface and section. In contrast, water penetration into the inside of the microspheres was found to be clearly different by use of cryogenic SEM. A significant difference was also observed in the crystallinity of polymers forming the microspheres. The release of FMOX from the microspheres was affected by the crystallinity of polymers forming the microspheres, and burst phenomena occurred in case the polymer was highly crystallized. It was speculated that the crystallization of polymer induced micro voids in the microspheres which functioned as channels for water penetration.

Abstract
Mepitiostane (MP), epitiostanol (EP), and oleic acid were administered to the jejunal loop of mesenteric vein- and thoracic duct-cannulated rats, and the intrinsic lymphatic partition rate (ILPR) of the absorbed compounds was directly determined. When 14C-EP was administered to the jejunal loop, recovery of unchanged EP in the mesenteric blood and the lymph was 7.9 and 0.03% of the administered dose, respectively. In contrast, following administration of 14C-MP, recovery of unchanged MP in the mesenteric blood and the lymph was 1.2 and 15.0%, respectively. Thus, following passage through the mucosal cell, 99.6% of the unchanged EP was partitioned into the blood and 0.4% into the lymph, while for unchanged MP, 7.6% was partitioned into the blood and 92.4% into the lymph. When 14C-oleic acid was administered to the jejunal loop, most of the penetrating oleic acid was incorporated into triglycerides in epithelial cells and transferred exclusively into the lymph. However, of the unchanged oleic acid, only 37.6% was partitioned into the lymph and 62.4% into the blood. The ILPR was 92.4% for MP, 0.4% for EP, and 37.6% for oleic acid. We conclude that the ILPR values indicate the true lymphotropic property of the compounds.

Abstract
The course of cytological abnormalities and synaptogenesis of Purkinje cells were investigated in the culmen of cerebella from homozygous Gunn rats with hereditary hyperbilirubinemia from postnatal day 7 to adulthood (5-10 months old). The affected Purkinje cells were abundant at day 7. A large number of Purkinje cells reached the fully advanced stage of degeneration during the ensuring 16 days and disappeared between days 12 and 30. The Purkinje cells remaining at day 30 were less affected and recovered by the adult stage. Various abnormalities in Purkinje cell synaptogenesis with the parallel fibers, climbing fibers, and basket and stellate cell axons were observed. Primitive junctions between parallel fibers and Purkinje dendritic shafts were often found in adulthood. The parallel fiber boutons lacking postsynaptic partners and facing astrocytic processes were often noted from day 18 to adulthood. The persistence of such presynaptic elements suggests some mechanisms for stabilizing the synaptic elements once they have been formed. Many of the parallel fiber synaptic boutons with or without their postsynaptic partners were enlarged and were assumed to be transsynaptically affected by Purkinje cell damage. A number of climbing fiber synapses with perisomatic process of Purkinje cells, which are transient in normal synaptogenesis, were present at day 30 and a few of them were still found even in adulthood. Basket and stellate cell synapses were often found in abundance on the remaining Purkinje cells in adulthood, though they were not frequently encountered during the development period.

Abstract
The critical period of Purkinje cell degeneration and cerebellar hypoplasia due to bilirubin was examined in rats with transient hyperbilirubinemia induced by a serial subcutaneous injection of novobiocin from 1 to 3, 5 to 7, 10 to 13, or 16 to 20 days after birth. Animals showing total plasma bilirubin levels of 5 to 7 mg/100 ml 6 h after the final injection were used for this study. In nearly midsagittal sections of the culmen, the percentage of the affected Purkinje cells was 0.9%, 17.1%, 0% and 0% at days 3, 7, 13 and 20, respectively. Thus, the Purkinje cells were most vulnerable to bilirubin between days 5 and 7. Cerebella from the rats which showed transient hyperbilirubinemia at day 3, 7, 13 or 20 were weighed at day 30. The cerebellar weight was significantly low only in rats showing hyperbilirubinemia at day 7. Thus, the critical period of the cerebellar hypoplasia due to bilirubin coincided with the period when the Purkinje cells were most sensitive to bilirubin. These results suggest that the Purkinje cell damage leads to the cerebellar hypoplasia in hyperbilirubinemia.

Abstract
A new peroral test capsule, GA-Test, containing riboflavin (5 mg) granules coated with polyvinylacetal diethylaminoacetate (AEA) for assessing gastric acidity without intubation was developed and evaluated for usefulness. GA-Test is based on the tracing in the urine of riboflavin, which is released in the stomach only in the presence of acidic fluid and is absorbed. Due to the film coating, riboflavin released very quickly at a pH of less than 5, and not at all at a pH of greater than 6. GA-Test gave a significant correlation, quantitatively, with peroral Gastrotest in assessing acidity, a non-intubation method which had been marketed in Japan prior to 1980. GA-Test results allowed division of the subjects into two groups i.e., subjects having low (hypo- or anacidity) gastric acidity and those having high (normal or hyperacidity) gastric acidity, GA-Test results agreed well with results of intubation (around 91.4%; 32 out of 35 cases) and were easily reproduced during the evaluation.
