Abstract
A 32-year-old man was hospitalized because of cardiac tamponade with the thickened visceral and parietal pericardial layers. Marked high level of adenosine deaminase activity (ADA) in pericardial fluid strongly suggested the diagnosis of tuberculous pericarditis, which was later assured by positive smear and culture of the pericardial fluid for Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Before rigid adhesion of the pericardial space was established, pericardiectomy was easily performed with satisfactory improvement of the hemodynamic status and physical symptoms of the patient. The present case suggests the efficacy of early surgical intervention to tuberculous pericarditis when it shows a sign of rapid progression to constrictive pericarditis. Furthermore, high ADA in pericardial fluid might be an useful diagnostic modality for tuberculous pericarditis.

Abstract
Red blood cells (RBC) may be labeled with Tc-99m after Tc-99m sodium pertechnetate is injected in the presence of a reducing agent, such as stannous chloride. Thus, spontaneous RBC labeling with Tc-99m is expected to be seen in patients with a high plasma concentration of tin. Spontaneous RBC labeling with Tc-99m was obtained in a 73-year-old woman who was clinically diagnosed with tin intoxication and proved to have a high concentration of plasma tin. The RBC labeling rate was calculated as 96% with blood sampling. Spontaneous RBC labeling with Tc-99m is a very simple method for proving a high plasma tin concentration and is adaptable to clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
Holocarboxylase synthetase (HCS) plays an essential role in biotin utilization in eukaryotic cells and its deficiency causes biotin-responsive multiple carboxylase deficiency in humans. We have cloned the human HCS cDNA and show that antiserum against the recombinant protein immunoprecipitates human HCS. A one base deletion resulting in a premature termination and a missense mutation (Leu to Pro) were found in cells from siblings with HCS deficiency. Human HCS shows homology to BirA, which acts as both a biotin-[acetyl-CoA-carboxylase] ligase and a biotin repressor in E. coli, suggesting a functional relationship between the two proteins. The human HCS gene maps to chromosome 21q22.1.

Abstract
A cDNA encoding mouse PD-1, a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily was previously isolated from apoptosis-induced cells by subtractive hybridization. To determine the structure and chromosomal location of the human PD-1 gene, we screened a human T cell cDNA library by mouse PD-1 probe and isolated a cDNA coding for the human PD-1 protein. The deduced amino acid sequence of human PD-1 was 60% identical to the mouse counterpart, and a putative tyrosine kinase-association motif was well conserved. The human PD-1 gene was mapped to 2q37.3 by chromosomal in situ hybridization.

Abstract
One year ago, a 48-year-old man complained of dyspnea, and was diagnosed as mitral valve regurgitation and aortic dissection. He underwent mitral valve replacement and aortic arch grafting. He was also pointed out to have an inflammatory aortic aneurysm (IAAA) in the infrarenal abdominal aorta, but did not undergo surgery. At this admission, he had lumbago and low grade fever probably due to deterioration of the IAAA. On the preoperative radionuclide studies, inferior vena caval obstruction and bilateral ureteral obstruction or severe stenosis were demonstrated by 99mTc-MAA venography and 123I-OIH renogram, respectively. 67Ga scan showed faint abnormal accumulation at the IAAA. He underwent surgery. IAAA had a thick wall in white and hard fibrotic tissue adhered closely to duodenum, jejunum, inferior vena cava and bilateral ureters. After surgery, his renal function was improved. In this case, radionuclide studies were useful for detecting the inferior vena caval obstruction, assessing renal function and inflammatory activity.

Abstract
To standardize the regional cerebral count with 99mTc-HMPAO, equilibrium blood count of which trapping mechanism is the same as the brain was used in seven patients with cerebrovascular disease. We injected 99mTc-HMPAO 740 MBq in 10-15 sec and got sequential arterial sampling in patients who were undertaken with PET. Four hours later 99mTc-HMPAO brain SPECT was taken and a venous sampling was drawn for determining the equilibrium blood count. Correlation between the area of arterial time activity curve and equilibrium venous blood count was 0.93. After 44 regions (36 in cortical area, 8 in deep area) with 99mTc-HMPAO brain SPECT were placed, SPECT counts were corrected by standardization of equilibrium venous blood count. The correlation between rCBF determined from C15O2 PET and corrected SPECT counts was 0.80 and 0.67, cortical area and deep area, respectively. We concluded that 99mTc-HMPAO brain SPECT count can be corrected by equilibrium blood count to standardize the regional cerebral counts.

Abstract
Holocarboxylase synthetase was purified 18,000-fold from bovine liver cytosol by a sequence of ammonium sulfate fractionation, alumina C gamma fractionation, DEAE-Sepharose CL-6B, EAH-Sepharose 4B, Sephacryl S-200 HR, Bio-Gel HTP, and Phenyl-Superose HR 5/5 chromatographies. Holocarboxylase synthetase activity was assayed using apopropionyl-CoA carboxylase from a patient with holocarboxylase synthetase deficiency as a substrate. Apopropionyl-CoA carboxylase was easily prepared from cultured lymphoblasts from this patient. Enzyme activity coincided with a 64,000-Da protein band on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Additionally, the molecular mass of the native enzyme was estimated to be 60,000 Da by gel filtration on Sephacryl S-200 HR. These results suggest that purified holocarboxylase synthetase from bovine liver cytosol is a monomeric enzyme. Its Km value for biotin was estimated to be 13 nM.

Abstract
We estimated the expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in HeLa S3 cells by flow cytometry with monoclonal antibody (MAb) PC10. HeLa cells were fixed with six different fixation procedures: 15-min and 30-min acetone, 15-min acetone followed by 15-min methanol (acetone/methanol), 30-min methanol, 15-min methanol followed by 15-min acetone (methanol/acetone), and a mixture of acetone and methanol. The fixed cells were applied to MAb PC10 against PCNA and then treated with FITC. With five fixation procedures except for acetone/methanol, PCNA was expressed in almost all cells with similar shapes and different FITC intensity levels on PCNA/DNA bivariate cytograms, whereas acetone/methanol fixation allowed PCNA detection in S-phase cells with a cytogram that showed a horseshoe-like pattern with a peak level at mid-S-phase. Flow cytometric dual parameter analysis of PCNA/BrdU was carried out in HeLa cells to confirm detection of PCNA in S-phase cells with acetone/methanol fixation. The population of cells stained for both parameters, i.e., S-phase cells, was obviously discriminated from that of the non-S-phase cell in PCNA/BrdU bivariate cytograms. These results strongly suggest that PCNA used with acetone/methanol fixation would be equal to BrdU as an S-phase marker.

Abstract
We have established an approach to the isolation of expressed DNA sequences from a defined region of the human chromosome. The method relies on the direct screening of cDNA libraries using pooled single-copy microclones generated by a laser chromosome micro-dissection in conjunction with a single unique primer polymerase chain reaction (SUP-PCR) procedure. We applied this method to the distal region of human chromosome 4p (4p15-4pter), which contains the Huntington disease (HD) and the Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome (WHS) loci. Twenty-one nonoverlapping and region-specific cDNA clones encoding novel genes were isolated in this manner. Ten of 21 clones were subregionally assigned to 4p16.1-4pter, and the remainder mapped to the region proximal to 4p16.1. Northern blot and reverse transcription followed by the PCR (RT-PCR) analysis revealed that 16 of these 21 clones detected transcripts in total RNA from human tissues. Our method is applicable to other chromosomal regions and is a powerful approach to the isolation of region-specific cDNA clones.

Abstract
We describe a method for measuring the size of the S-phase fraction in human tumor tissue sections using an antibody to PCNA (PC10). Although treatment with Triton X-100 before fixation extracted a large amount of PCNA from the cells even in frozen tissue sections, PCNA remained exclusively in S-phase cells. Immunohistochemical staining of PCNA after the detergent treatment allowed estimation of the S-phase fraction in solid tumors. The validity of the method was directly proven by double staining of bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) and PCNA in HeLa cells. The PCNA-positive cells were identical with BrdUrd-positive cells after the detergent treatment. In contrast, almost all HeLa cells in the exponentially growing phase were positive for PC10 without treatment with Triton X-100.

Abstract
From 1974 to 1992, anterior cervical spondylodesis was performed in 163 patients of cervical spondylotic myelopathy, cervical spondylotic radiculopathy, traumatic spinal injury, ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament, or cervical spondylitis. Forty-five of these patients were followed for more than 4 years. To analyze the long-term results of anterior cervical spondylodesis, a radiological examination was performed in these 45 patients and magnetic resonance imaging was conducted in 41 of them. Postoperative spondylotic changes were observed radiologically in 23 (51.1%) of the 45 patients. Anterior bony spur was more frequently observed than posterior bony spur in these postoperative spondylotic changes. Postoperative canal stenosis caused by the bulging of the discs and the ligamentum flavum was frequently demonstrated with hypo- or isointense signal on T2-weighted images by magnetic resonance imaging in patients followed long term after surgery and in patients with malalignment of the cervical spine due to kyphosis of the fused vertebrae and multisegmental fusion. Neurological improvement was less in patients with bulge of the discs and the ligamentum flavum seen in magnetic resonance imaging than in patients without it. The bulge of the ligamentum flavum was histopathologically defined as hypertrophy of the ligament.

Abstract
Myocardial washout of the new myocardial perfusion imaging agent, 99mTc-hexakis-2-methoxy isobutyl isonitrile (99mTc-MIBI) was studied in 23 patients with coronary artery disease. These patients were divided into three groups; 8 patients with effort angina pectoris (AP group), 6 with myocardial infarction who had reversible defect (MI-RD (+) group) and 9 with myocardial infarction who had not reversible defect (MI-RD (-) group). Regional radioactivities were determined with postexercise 1- and 3-hour myocardial planar images. In AP group, 99mTc-MIBI washout rate in ischemic area was smaller than in normal area (3.8 +/- 7.5% vs. 8.3 +/- 5.6%, p < 0.05), however, in the remaining two groups, there were no difference in washout between normal and infarct areas. Defect/normal ratios from postexercise 1 hour to 3 hours were slightly increased in AP and MI-RD (+) groups. Our results indicate that 99mTc-MIBI showed slight and incomplete myocardial redistribution in ischemic areas. These data showed to be considered in the interpretation of 99mTc-MIBI myocardial imaging.

Abstract
We report a case of benign symmetric lipomatosis with hypothyroidism. Functional abnormalities and distribution of lipomas in benign symmetric lipomatosis suggest that the lipomas in this disorder may represent brown adipose tissue. In conditions where mRNAs of uncoupling protein, which is believed to be unique for brown adipose tissue mitochondria, were detected in one microgram of poly (A+) rat brown fat RNA, no signal at all was found in the lipomatous tissue, suggesting that the masses of benign symmetric lipomatosis are not functional brown adipose tissue.

Abstract
The authors studied 75 nonselected patients (30 men and 45 women; mean age 48 years) with sarcoidosis retrospectively to assess the applicability of nuclear examinations for detecting myocardial involvement. All patients were studied with Tl-201 myocardial perfusion scan (TMPS), Ga-67 myocardial scan (GMS), and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) using ECG-gated radionuclide ventriculography. The positive GMS group had a significantly higher occurrence of abnormality on TMPS (100%) than the negative GMS group (41%). Patients with TMPS abnormality and positive GMS showed significantly lower LVEF (36.3%) than those of normal perfusion or negative GMS. When LVEF decreased, occurrences of TMPS abnormality and positive GMS increased. The authors demonstrate that in patients with sarcoidosis LVEF was closely related to TMPS and GMS, and LVEF reflected the progression of sarcoid heart disease and can be considered a reliable indicator of cardiac function. Patients with sarcoidosis with TMPS abnormality and positive GMS should be thought to have myocardial sarcoidosis and their cardiac functions can be assessed by ECG-gated radionuclide ventriculography, while the remaining patients should be examined with TMPS and GMS periodically for detection of myocardial involvement.

Abstract
T lymphocyte recognition of cell-associated minor lymphocyte stimulation (Mls) superantigen was studied by simultaneous flow cytometric measurement of T cell free ionized intracellular calcium ([Ca2+]i) with the fluorescent probe indo-1 and T cell binding to antigen-presenting cells stained with a long-chained, membrane-fixed cyanine dye. Cloned T cell-B lymphocyte antigen-presenting cell conjugate formation and increased T cell [Ca2+]i were antigen specific and tightly linked in four Mls-reactive T cell clones. The T cell-antigen-presenting cell conjugates were extremely stable and, like T cell [Ca2+]i elevation, were maintained for more than 2 hr. Three ligand-receptor pairs, (i) T cell receptor/antigen+class II, (ii) CD4/class II, and (iii) LFA-1/ICAM-1, were obligatory participants in T cell recognition of cell-bound superantigen since monoclonal antibodies to any of them blocked formation of cell conjugates. Despite previous reports, Mls recognition occurred by the conventional T cell recognition pathway with easily detected phosphoinositide hydrolysis. B cell activation greatly enhances their recognition by Mls-specific T cells.

Abstract
The phosphocreatine content of smooth muscle is of similar magnitude to ATP. Thus the function of the creatine kinase system in this tissue cannot simply be regarded as an energy buffer. Thus an understanding of its role in smooth muscle behavior can point to CK function in other systems. From our perspective CK function in smooth muscle is one example of a more general phenomenon, that of the co-localization of ATP synthesis and utilization. In an interesting and analogous fashion distinct glycolytic cascades are also localized in regions of the cell with specialized energy requirements. Similar to CK, glycolytic enzymes are known to be localized on thin filaments, sarcoplasmic reticulum and plasma membrane. In this chapter we will describe the relations between glycolysis and smooth muscle function and compare and contrast to that of the CK system. Our goal is to more fully understand the significance of the compartmentation of distinct pathways for ATP synthesis with specific functions in smooth muscle. This organization of metabolism and function seen most clearly in smooth muscle is likely representative of many other cell types.

Abstract
CD3 zeta and eta chains are components of the T cell antigen receptor (TCR) complex and are transcribed from a common gene by alternative splicing. TCR complexes containing the zeta eta dimer have been thought to mediate different functions than complexes containing the zeta 2 dimer. To analyze the role of eta in the development and function of T cells, we generated eta-deficient mice without affecting zeta by gene targeting in embryonic stem cells. Homozygous mutant embryos developed normally. Unexpectedly, however, these mice exhibited high mortality soon after birth for unknown reason(s). Analysis of surviving homozygous animals revealed that the development and function of T cells were normal in the absence of the eta chain. Recently, the zeta/eta locus was reported to encode a transcription factor, Oct-1, on the opposite DNA strand. Our targeting strategy resulted in modulation of Oct-1 transcription--reduction of the authentic Oct-1 mRNA and induction of aberrant transcripts. Although differences in tissue distribution and DNA binding capacity of Oct-1 between wild-type and eta-deficient mice were not evident from in situ hybridization and gel shift analysis, the high mortality in the eta-deficient strain may well be due to the disturbance of Oct-1 transcription by the mutation in the zeta/eta locus. Such possible complexities have to be taken into account in the interpretation of gene targeting experiments.

Abstract
The insulin receptors from erythrocytes of 50 patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus were tested for their ability to autophosphorylate. The assay was performed by a new enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay system that used monoclonal anti-insulin receptor antibodies absorbed to microtiter plates as a first antibody and polyclonal antiphosphotyrosine antibody as a labeled second antibody. By this assay, 3 patients were identified with defects in their insulin receptor kinase, although their defects appeared heterogeneous. Patient 1 had 85% less maximal autophosphorylation with a normal ED50 (1.6 x 10(-9) M insulin). Patient 2, who had polycystic ovary disease, had a 49.2% decrease in maximal autophosphorylation of insulin receptors, and the ED50 was shifted to the right (5.6 x 10(-8) M). Patient 3 with acanthosis nigricans had a normal maximal autophosphorylation, but the ED50 shifted to the right (2.9 x 10(-8) M). The mechanisms for the diversity detected in this assay is not known, but this technique has sufficient specificity and sensitivity to be used to screen for insulin-resistant patients who have a lack of kinase activity.
