Abstract
The ubiquitin-proteasome system is central in the regulation of cellular proteins controlling cell cycle progression and apoptosis, drawing much interest for developing effective targeted cancer therapies. Herein, we developed a novel pH-responsive polymeric-micelle-based carrier system to effectively deliver the proteasome inhibitor MG132 into cancer cells. MG132 is covalently bound to the block copolymer composed of polyethylene glycol (PEG) and polyaspartate through an acid-labile hydrazone bond. This bond is stable at physiological condition, but hydrolytically degradable in acidic compartments in the cell, such as late-endosomes and lysosomes, and thus, it was used for controlled release of MG132 after EPR-mediated preferential accumulation of the micelles into the tumor. MG132-loaded micelles have monodispersed size distribution with an average diameter of 45nm, and critical micelle concentration is well below 10(-7)M. In vitro studies against several cancer cell lines confirmed that MG132-loaded micelles retained the cytotoxic effect, and this activity was indeed due to the inhibition of proteasome by released MG132 from the micelles. Real-time in vitro confocal-microscopy experiments clearly indicated that MG132-conjugated micelles disintegrated only inside the target cells. By intravital confocal micro-videography, we also confirmed the prolonged circulation of MG132 loaded micelles in the bloodstream, which lead to tumor specific accumulation of micelles, as confirmed by in vivo imaging 24h after injection. These micelles showed significantly lower in vivo toxicity than free MG132, while achieving remarkable antitumor effect against a subcutaneous HeLa-luc tumor model. Our findings create a paradigm for future development of polymeric-micelle-based carrier system for other peptide aldehyde type proteasome inhibitors to make them effective cohort of the existing cancer therapeutic regiments.

Abstract
New data from the T2K neutrino oscillation experiment produce the most precise measurement of the neutrino mixing parameter θ23. Using an off-axis neutrino beam with a peak energy of 0.6 GeV and a data set corresponding to 6.57×10(20) protons on target, T2K has fit the energy-dependent νμ oscillation probability to determine oscillation parameters. The 68% confidence limit on sin(2)(θ23) is 0.514(-0.056)(+0.055) (0.511±0.055), assuming normal (inverted) mass hierarchy. The best-fit mass-squared splitting for normal hierarchy is Δm32(2)=(2.51±0.10)×10(-3) eV(2)/c(4) (inverted hierarchy: Δm13(2)=(2.48±0.10)×10(-3) eV(2)/c(4)). Adding a model of multinucleon interactions that affect neutrino energy reconstruction is found to produce only small biases in neutrino oscillation parameter extraction at current levels of statistical uncertainty.

Abstract
A search for the dinucleon decay pp → K+ K+ has been performed using 91.6 kton·yr data from Super-Kamiokande-I. This decay provides a sensitive probe of the R-parity-violating parameter λ112''. A boosted decision tree analysis found no signal candidates in the data. The expected background was 0.28±0.19 atmospheric neutrino induced events and the estimated signal detection efficiency was 12.6%±3.2%. A lower limit of 1.7×10(32) years has been placed on the partial lifetime of the decay O16 → C14K+ K+ at 90% C.L. A corresponding upper limit of 7.8×10(-9) has been placed on the parameter λ112''.

Abstract
We report an indication that the elastic scattering rate of solar B8 neutrinos with electrons in the Super-Kamiokande detector is larger when the neutrinos pass through Earth during nighttime. We determine the day-night asymmetry, defined as the difference of the average day rate and average night rate divided by the average of those two rates, to be [-3.2 ± 1.1(stat) ± 0.5(syst)]%, which deviates from zero by 2.7 σ. Since the elastic scattering process is mostly sensitive to electron-flavored solar neutrinos, a nonzero day-night asymmetry implies that the flavor oscillations of solar neutrinos are affected by the presence of matter within the neutrinos' flight path. Super-Kamiokande's day-night asymmetry is consistent with neutrino oscillations for 4 × 10(-5) eV(2) ≤ Δm 2(21) ≤ 7 × 10(-5) eV(2) and large mixing values of θ12, at the 68% C.L.

Abstract
The T2K experiment has observed electron neutrino appearance in a muon neutrino beam produced 295 km from the Super-Kamiokande detector with a peak energy of 0.6 GeV. A total of 28 electron neutrino events were detected with an energy distribution consistent with an appearance signal, corresponding to a significance of 7.3σ when compared to 4.92±0.55 expected background events. In the Pontecorvo-Maki-Nakagawa-Sakata mixing model, the electron neutrino appearance signal depends on several parameters including three mixing angles θ12, θ23, θ13, a mass difference Δm(32)(2) and a CP violating phase δ(CP). In this neutrino oscillation scenario, assuming |Δm(32)(2)|=2.4×10(-3) eV(2), sin(2)θ(23)=0.5, and Δm322>0 (Δm(32)(2)<0), a best-fit value of sin(2)2θ(13)=0.140(-0.032)(+0.038) (0.170(-0.037)(+0.045)) is obtained at δ(CP)=0. When combining the result with the current best knowledge of oscillation parameters including the world average value of θ(13) from reactor experiments, some values of δ(CP) are disfavored at the 90% C.L.

Abstract
Several naturally occurring peptides in bovine milk were characterized by tandem mass spectrometry and Edman degradation. Chromatograms of peptide fractions (passed through an ultra-filtration membrane, nominal molecular weight limit 3000) prepared from colostrum (collected immediately after parturition) and transitional milk (collected 5 days postpartum) showed that they were almost identical. In total, six peptides, α(s1)-CN (f16-23) (RPKHPIKH), α(s1)-CN (f16-24) (RPKHPIKHQ), α(s1)-CN (f17-25) (PKHPIKHQG), α(s1)-CN (f46-52) (VFGKEKV), α(s1)-CN (f94-105) (HIQKEDVPSER), and β-CN (f121-128) (HKEMPFPK), were identified. One of the major peptides, the N-terminal fragment of αs1 -casein, varied structurally during early lactation: α(s1)-CN (f17-25) (PKHPIKHQG) and α(s1)-CN (f16-23) (RPKHPIKH)/α(s1)-CN (f16-24) (RPKHPIKHQ) were found in colostrum and transitional milk, respectively. A chemically synthesized peptide, α(s1)-CN (f16-23) (RPKHPIKH), inhibited apoptosis of bovine granulosa cells induced by serum-free conditions in a dose-dependent manner, in consequence of caspase-3 and caspase-9 suppressions. The physiological function of the peptide remains unclear, but it may have potential use as pharmaceutical agent and as an anti-apoptotic agent in cell culture medium.

Abstract
The T2K Collaboration reports a precision measurement of muon neutrino disappearance with an off-axis neutrino beam with a peak energy of 0.6 GeV. Near detector measurements are used to constrain the neutrino flux and cross section parameters. The Super-Kamiokande far detector, which is 295 km downstream of the neutrino production target, collected data corresponding to 3.01×10(20) protons on target. In the absence of neutrino oscillations, 205±17 (syst) events are expected to be detected while only 58 muon neutrino event candidates are observed. A fit to the neutrino rate and energy spectrum, assuming three neutrino flavors and normal mass hierarchy yields a best-fit mixing angle sin2(θ23)=0.514±0.082 and mass splitting |Δm(32)(2)|=2.44(-0.15)(+0.17)×10(-3) eV2/c4. Our result corresponds to the maximal oscillation disappearance probability.

Abstract
Super-Kamiokande atmospheric neutrino data were fit with an unbinned maximum likelihood method to search for the appearance of tau leptons resulting from the interactions of oscillation-generated tau neutrinos in the detector. Relative to the expectation of unity, the tau normalization is found to be 1.42 ± 0.35(stat)(-0.12)(+0.14)(syst) excluding the no-tau-appearance hypothesis, for which the normalization would be zero, at the 3.8σ level. We estimate that 180.1 ± 44.3(stat)(-15.2)(+17.8) (syst) tau leptons were produced in the 22.5 kton fiducial volume of the detector by tau neutrinos during the 2806 day running period. In future analyses, this large sample of selected tau events will allow the study of charged current tau neutrino interaction physics with oscillation produced tau neutrinos.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although the anatomy of the Sylvian fissure is understood, there is little information on where to start its dissection in the pterional transsylvian (PT-TS) approach. At small craniotomy using the PT-TS approach, we set the entry point to the Sylvian fissure at 15 mm behind the anterior edge of the craniotomy along the Sylvian fissure and designated this site "point 15." Here we compared the utility of "point 15" with the Sylvian point (point on the Sylvian fissure giving rise to the horizontal and anterior ascending rami) that had been recommended earlier as the entry site for opening the Sylvian fissure. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study includes 16 patients with 7 ruptured and 9 unruptured anterior circulation aneurysms. We evaluated the usefulness of "point 15" in the PT-TS approach for aneurysmal neck clipping with respect to the adequacy of anatomical exposure and low invasiveness. RESULTS In 12 patients "point 15" provided for excellent anatomical exposure of the Sylvian fissure; complete neck clipping was possible with minimal brain retraction and damage. In two patients with ruptured aneurysms and thick subarachnoid hemorrhage and in two patients with unruptured aneurysms, the dissection had to be enlarged 3 to 4 mm distally without reaching the Sylvian point. In the latter two patients the Sylvian veins were tethered to frontal and temporal lobes. CONCLUSIONS The "point 15" was an easily set entry point to the Sylvian fissure. It provided for sufficient anatomical exposure at surgery for anterior circulation aneurysms; additional posterior dissection was required in rare cases. We found that "point 15" was useful in small craniotomies using the PT-TS approach.

Abstract
To better understand the cellular pathogenetic mechanisms of fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) and the therapeutic benefit of stem cell treatment, we exposed pregnant rats to ethanol followed by intravenous administration of neural stem cells (NSCs) complexed with atelocollagen to the new born rats and studied recovery of GABAergic interneuron numbers and synaptic protein density in the anterior cingulate cortex, hippocampus and amygdala. Prenatal ethanol exposure reduced both parvalbumin-positive phenotype of GABAergic interneurons and postsynaptic density protein 95 levels in these areas. Intravenous NSC treatment reversed these reductions. Furthermore, treatment with NSCs reversed impaired memory/cognitive function and social interaction behavior. These experiments underscore an important role for synaptic remodeling and GABAergic interneuron genesis in the pathophysiology and treatment of FASD and highlight the therapeutic potential for intravenous NSC administration in FASD utilizing atelocollagen.

Abstract
Restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis was carried out to tag the alien genes for brown planthopper (BPH) resistance and earliness introgressed from wild species Oryza australiensis into cultivated rice, O. sativa L. One introgression line (IR65482-4-136-2-2), resistant to biotypes 1, 2, and 3 of BPH and early in flowering, was selected from BC2F4 of the cross between O. sativa (IR31917-45-3-2) and O. australiensis (accession 100882). Recurrent parent, O. australiensis, and introgression line were surveyed for RFLP using probes of chromosomes 10 and 12. Two probes, RG457 and CDO98, detected introgression from O. australiensis. Cosegregation between introgressed characters and molecular markers was studied in F2 derived from the cross between the introgression line and recurrent parent. The gene for BPH resistance is linked with RG457 of chromosome 12 at a distance of 3.68 +/- 1.29 cM, and the gene for earliness is linked with CDO98 of chromosome 10 at a distance of 9.96 +/- 3.28 cM. Such close linkage is useful in marker-based selection while transferring BPH resistance from introgression line into other elite breeding lines. Introgression at the molecular level indicates that the mechanism of alien gene transfer is probably genetic recombination through crossing over rather than substitution of whole or large segment of chromosomes of wild species.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The renoprotective effects of angiotensin II type 1 receptor blockers (ARBs) have been demonstrated in a number of clinical studies, but there are few evaluations of long-term ARB treatment. We measured blood pressure, urine protein, and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) among patients under long-term (up to 9 years) treatment with candesartan cilexetil to evaluate its safety and effectiveness to protect renal graft function. METHODS This study of 41 patients (31 male and 10 female) who presented with proteinuria and hypertension (blood pressure >140/90 mm Hg) after receiving a renal graft. Their serum creatinine level at baseline was 1.51 ± 0.53 mg/dL. Cyclosporine or tacrolimus were concomitantly prescribed for 18 (43.9%) and 22 (53.7%) subjects, respectively. The ARB treatment period was ≥12 months (up to 9 years, mean 4.8 years). Combination with other antihypertensive drugs (calcium antagonists) was necessary in 14/41 subjects (34.1%). RESULTS Significant declines in blood pressure were observed during the treatment period; blood pressure reduction target (blood pressure <130/80 mm Hg) was met in 56.1% for systolic and 68.3% for diastolic pressure. No significant increase in serum creatinine level or eGFR was observed. Urinary protein was reduced to negative or marginal in 63.4% of the subjects, demonstrating a significant decrease. CONCLUSIONS Candesartan cilexetil was considered to be safe even for long-term treatment in renal transplant patients, and effective to protect renal graft function.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Neonatal congenital tricuspid valve (TV) dysplasia and/or displacement (Ebstein's malformation) with severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is a challenging condition in which outcomes are frequently poor. Little is known about left ventricular (LV) function during the perinatal period in patients with congenital TV disease. The objective of this study was to evaluate LV function in fetuses with congenital TV anomalies associated with significant TR. METHODS Serial fetal echocardiograms in 16 fetuses with congenital TV dysplasia and/or displacement (five neonatal survivors and 11 fetal or neonatal deaths) were reviewed. LV stroke volume, LV end-diastolic volume (LVEDV), LV end-diastolic dimension (LVIDd), the LV eccentricity index, thoracic and cardiac areas and the cardiothoracic area ratio (CTAR), the right atrium area index, and LV longitudinal strains were compared according to gestational age and clinical outcome. RESULTS The gestational age-adjusted LVEDV (Z-score) was lower in late gestation (-1.2 ± 1.2 at last examination ≥ 28 weeks) than earlier in gestation (0.3 ± 1.5 at last examination < 28 weeks) and LV output was lower than reported late-gestation normal values. LV short-axis dimension correlated with LV volume and CTAR. LV mid-septal strain was lower than the normal average of fetal mid-septal strain and correlated with the LV eccentricity index. Among these parameters, only the LV eccentricity index differed between survivors and non-survivors. CONCLUSION LV function and anatomy are abnormal in fetuses with severe congenital TV anomalies and may be important contributors to outcome.

Abstract
Heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is a promising target for anti-tumor therapy. We previously reported the anti-tumor activity of a novel Hsp90 inhibitor, KW-2478, in multiple myeloma (MM) as a single agent. In this study, we examined the combinational effect of KW-2478 and bortezomib, a proteasome inhibitor, in vitro and in vivo. In vitro, KW-2478 enhanced bortezomib-induced cell growth inhibition, both in MM cell lines and primary patient MM cells. The combination of KW-2478 and bortezomib also induced caspase activation in MM cell lines. Interestingly, the combination synergistically enhanced the expression of Hsp70B, a homolog of Hsp70, in human MM cells and peripheral blood mononuclear cells, indicating Hsp70B could be a surrogate biomarker for the combination of Hsp90 and proteasome inhibitors. In vivo, the combination of KW-2478 with bortezomib showed synergistic anti-tumor activity without significant body weight loss in a subcutaneously inoculated human myeloma model. Furthermore, the combination also showed synergistic reduction of tumor burden in bone marrow in an orthotopic myeloma model. Our results strongly suggest that combination of KW-2478 with bortezomib could exhibit enhanced anti-tumor activity against human myeloma.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF INVESTIGATION It has been reported that interleukin (IL)-8 is produced in the amnion and that its production is enhanced by the initiation of labor. The purpose of this study was to clarify the mechanism of IL-8 production by amnion-derived (WISH) cells. METHODS Cells were cultured and treated with various concentrations of interleukin (IL)-1alpha, IL-1 receptor antagonist (ra), tumor necrosis factor (TNF)- alpha, C2-, C6-ceramide, mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase kinase (MEK) inhibitor (U0126) and pyridinyl imidazole (p38 MAP kinase inhibitor, SB203580). IL-8 in the culture medium was measured by ELISA. RESULTS The production of IL-8 was significantly increased by IL-1alpha or TNF-alpha, and the increase of IL-8 stimulated by IL-1alpha was suppressed by IL-1 ra in a dose-dependent manner. The increase in IL-8 production by IL-1alpha or TNF-alpha was further enhanced by simultaneous addition of C2-ceramide. The increase of IL-8 stimulated by IL-1alpha or TNF-alpha was also suppressed by treatment with U0126 or SB203580. The results of this study demonstrate that the production of IL-8 induced by IL-1alpha and TNF-alpha is enhanced by C2-ceramide, and suppressed by MEK inhibitor or P38 MAP kinase inhibitor. CONCLUSION The results suggest that ceramide-mediated accumulation and MAP kinase-mediated suppression of inflammatory events in the amnion may play an important role in the maintenance of pregnancy and initiation of labor.

Abstract
We present a search for differences in the oscillations of antineutrinos and neutrinos in the Super-Kamiokande-I, -II, and -III atmospheric neutrino sample. Under a two-flavor disappearance model with separate mixing parameters between neutrinos and antineutrinos, we find no evidence for a difference in oscillation parameters. Best-fit antineutrino mixing is found to be at (Δm2,sin2 2θ)=(2.0×10(-3) eV2, 1.0) and is consistent with the overall Super-K measurement.

Abstract
Accumulating evidence indicates that cyclooxygenase (COX)-2-derived prostaglandin (PG) E(2) is involved in the development of various tumors, including colorectal cancer. However, the precise contribution of microsomal PGE synthase (mPGES)-1, a terminal enzyme that acts downstream of COX-2 in the PGE(2)-biosynthetic pathway, to multiple processes of tumor development is not yet fully understood. Here, we show the pro-tumorigenic role of mPGES-1 in chemical carcinogen-induced colon carcinogenesis and intrasplenic tumor transplantation models. Genetic deletion of mPGES-1 significantly reduced both the total number and size of colorectal polyps at 18 weeks after azoxymethane administration with reduced nuclear translocation of β-catenin, altered expression profiles of chemokines/cytokines and increased production of antitumorigenic PGs, prostaglandin D(2) and prostacyclin in tumor tissues. At an early stage (6 weeks), mPGES-1 deficiency significantly reduced the number of aberrant crypt foci, while its transgenic overexpression increased the number. Furthermore, the growth of intrasplenically transplanted tumor cells was suppressed in mPGES-1 knockout (KO) mice. Co-culture of tumor cells with bone marrow-derived macrophages (BM-MΦs) isolated from wild-type (WT) mice resulted in the induction of mPGES-1 in BM-MΦs and increased the growth of tumor cells in vitro, whereas mPGES-1-null BM-MΦs failed to facilitate tumor growth. The adoptive transfer of WT BM-MΦs into mPGES-1 KO mice restored the growth of transplanted tumor cells, indicating that mPGES-1 in MΦs is important for the growth of adjacent tumor cells. Taken together, our findings suggest that the inhibition of mPGES-1 is an alternative therapeutic target for colorectal and possibly other cancers.

Abstract
The T2K experiment observes indications of ν(μ) → ν(e) appearance in data accumulated with 1.43×10(20) protons on target. Six events pass all selection criteria at the far detector. In a three-flavor neutrino oscillation scenario with |Δm(23)(2)| = 2.4×10(-3) eV(2), sin(2)2θ(23) = 1 and sin(2)2θ(13) = 0, the expected number of such events is 1.5±0.3(syst). Under this hypothesis, the probability to observe six or more candidate events is 7×10(-3), equivalent to 2.5σ significance. At 90% C.L., the data are consistent with 0.03(0.04) < sin(2)2θ(13) < 0.28(0.34) for δ(CP) = 0 and a normal (inverted) hierarchy.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is a major source of aging that damages genomic and mitochondrial DNA, causing female reproductive disorders. Glutathione S-transferases (GST) are known to detoxify the metabolites of genotoxic molecules to more water-soluble and readily excretable forms. Therefore, most GST have been considered to be down-regulated by aging. We recently demonstrated that only GSTT1 is up-regulated in granulosa cells from aged, infertile patients and aged mice, although other kinds of GST are down-regulated in these cells (Ito et al. 2008 Fertil. Steril. 90, 1026–1035). Measurement of the GSTT1 level in granulosa cells binding to the patient’s oocytes could be used in the selection of oocytes of high quality, meaning that the GSTT1 level in granulosa cells could be a good indicator of age-related infertility. To do that, an understanding of the concrete relationship between aging and GSTT1 up-regulation is necessary. However, the regulation mechanism of GSTT1 in granulosa cells remains unclear. In the present study, we attempted to examine the difference in expression mechanisms between GSTT1 and other GST. First, the expression patterns of GSTT1 and GSTP (a major member of the GST) in aged granulosa cells from patients were observed by immunostaining. The GSTT1 was up-regulated (young: 25 to 34 years old, N = 9; aged: 38 to 43 years old, N = 12; P < 0.05) but the GSTP was down-regulated (young: 28 to 30 years, N = 5; aged: 38 to 42 years, N = 7; P < 0.05) in the aged group. Nuclear factor erythroid 2 p45-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is a transcription factor that regulates the expression of most GST, so in the next experiment, we examined the expression patterns of GSTT1 and GSTP in granulosa cells from Nrf2-disrupted (Nrf2–/–) mice by immunostaining. The GSTP was down-regulated in granulosa cells of Nrf2–/– mice compared with those of Nrf2+/– mice, although a significant difference was not observed in GSTT1. In addition, we confirmed these results by using mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEF) from Nrf2–/– and Nrf2+/– mice, and the same results were obtained. Our previous experiment showed that GSTT1 was induced by FSH in human granulosa-like tumour cells (KGN cells). We analysed the expression level of other genes in FSH-stimulated KGN cells. The transcription levels of GSTP and Nrf2 were not induced by FSH. These results suggest that the expression of GSTT1 is not regulated by Nrf2 and is differentially regulated from other GST. The difference in regulation mechanisms between GSTT1 and other GST may result in the up-regulation of GSTT1 in the aging granulosa cells, and it may contribute to the constitution of the diagnosis of oocyte quality using the GSTT1 measurement.

Abstract
We have previously shown that joint distraction and movement with a hinged external fixation device for 12 weeks was useful for repairing a large articular cartilage defect in a rabbit model. We have now investigated the results after six months and one year. The device was applied to 16 rabbits who underwent resection of the articular cartilage and subchondral bone from the entire tibial plateau. In group A (nine rabbits) the device was applied for six months. In group B (seven rabbits) it was in place for six months, after which it was removed and the animals were allowed to move freely for an additional six months. The cartilage remained sound in all rabbits. The areas of type II collagen-positive staining and repaired soft tissue were larger in group B than in group A. These findings provide evidence of long-term persistence of repaired cartilage with this technique and that weight-bearing has a positive effect on the quality of the cartilage.
