Abstract
The pathogenesis of community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) pneumonia in influenza-infected elderly individuals has not yet been elucidated in detail. In the present study, a 92-year-old man infected with influenza developed CA-MRSA pneumonia. His CA-MRSA was an emerging type, originated in ST121/agr4 S. aureus, with diversities of Panton–Valentine leucocidin (PVL)−/spat5110/SCCmecV+ versus PVL+/spat159(etc.)/SCCmec−, but with common virulence potentials of strong adhesin and cytolytic activities. Resistance to erythromycin/clindamycin (inducible-type) and gentamicin was detected. Pneumonia improved with the administration of levofloxacin, but with the subsequent development of fatal aspiration pneumonia. Hence, characteristic CA-MRSA with strong adhesin and cytolytic activities triggered influenza-related sequential complications.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Entinostat, a class I HDAC inhibitor (HDACi), has shown promising activity in ENCORE 301, a randomized, placebo-controlled, phase II trial of entinostat + exemestane (EE) vs. exemestane + placebo (EP) in advanced hormone receptor-positive breast cancer progressed on nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitors. ENCORE 301 met the primary progression free survival endpoint and showed a median 8.3-month improvement in the overall survival (OS) exploratory endpoint for the EE arm. Emerging preclinical work suggests that entinostat has immunomodulatory effects and can eradicate modestly immunogenic mouse tumors in combination with immune checkpoint blockade agents via reduction of circulating myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC). Based on these data, we conducted an analysis of immune subsets in blood samples from ENCORE 301 breast cancer patients.
Method: Blood was collected from a subset of 49 patients (27 EE and 22 EP) representative of the 130 patients enrolled in ENCORE 301 on cycle 1 day 1 (C1D1; pre-treatment), C1D2, C1D8, and C1D15 for biomarker analysis. Of these, 34 patient samples (20 EE and 14 EP) were analyzed for circulating immune subsets. The percent change in subsets at C1D15 vs. baseline was assessed based on the following surface markers: Lin-MDSC (lin; CD3, CD19, CD56)-HLA-DR-CD11b+CD33+), granulocytic MDSC (CD14-CD11b+CD33+), monocytic MDSC (Lin-HLA-DR-CD11b+CD33+CD14+), immature MDSC (Lin-HLA-DR-CD11b+CD33+CD14-), CD8+ T-cells (CD4-CD8+), Foxp3-CD4+ T-cells (CD8-CD4+Foxp3-), and Tregs (CD4+CD8-CD25hiFoxp3+). Monocytes were analyzed for three populations: CD14+, CD14+HLA-DRhi, and CD14+HLA-DRlow/negative. In addition, PD-1, CTLA-4, and TIM-3 were measured on T-cell subsets, and CD40 was measured on MDSCs.
Results: In line with preclinical data, we observed a significant reduction in granulocytic MDSC (-14.67% vs. +20.56%, p 0.029) and monocytic MDSC (-62.3% vs. +1.97%, p 0.002) in EE. Entinostat did not alter immature MDSC levels (-20.9% vs. -15.0%, p 0.93) suggesting a downstream effect of entinostat on MDSC subsets. Interestingly, CD40, a costimulatory receptor required for MDSC-mediated immune suppression was significantly down-regulated in all MDSC subsets except granulocytic MDSC where a downward trend was observed. Entinostat did not significantly impact the ratio of CD8+ T-cells per CD4+ T-cells or per Tregs or alter expression of CTLA4, PD-1, or TIM3 on T-cell subsets. Reduced expression of HLA-DR on monocytes has been associated with poor prognosis in cancer. Consistent with entinostat-mediated immunomodulatory effects, a significant increase in the number of HLA-DR+ monocytes (34.1% vs. -11.38%, p 0.0004) and level of HLA-DR expression on monocytes (16.3% vs. -4.7%; p 0.015) was observed.
Conclusion: Data with entinostat combined with exemestane in ENCORE 301 provide the first evidence of HDACi-mediated reduction of immunosuppressive MDSCs and increased immunocompetent CD14+HLA-DRhi monocytes in patients. These findings may explain the improved OS seen with EE in ENCORE 301 and provide strong rationale for planned combination studies of entinostat with immune checkpoint blockade agents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND KRAS mutations in NSCLC are associated with a lack of response to epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors. Selumetinib (AZD6244; ARRY-142886) is an oral selective MEK kinase inhibitor of the Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK pathway. PATIENTS AND METHODS Advanced nonsmall-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients failing one to two prior regimens underwent KRAS profiling. KRAS wild-type patients were randomized to erlotinib (150 mg daily) or a combination of selumetinib (150 mg daily) with erlotinib (100 mg daily). KRAS mutant patients were randomized to selumetinib (75 mg b.i.d.) or the combination. The primary end points were progression-free survival (PFS) for the KRAS wild-type cohort and objective response rate (ORR) for the KRAS mutant cohort. Biomarker studies of ERK phosphorylation and immune subsets were carried out. RESULTS From March 2010 to May 2013, 89 patients were screened; 41 KRAS mutant and 38 KRAS wild-type patients were enrolled. Median PFS in the KRAS wild-type arm was 2.4 months [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.3-3.7] for erlotinib alone and 2.1 months (95% CI 1.8-5.1) for the combination. The ORR in the KRAS mutant group was 0% (95% CI 0.0% to 33.6%) for selumetinib alone and 10% (95% CI 2.1% to 26.3%) for the combination. Combination therapy resulted in increased toxicities, requiring dose reductions (56%) and discontinuation (8%). Programmed cell death-1 expression on regulatory T cells (Tregs), Tim-3 on CD8+ T cells and Th17 levels were associated with PFS and overall survival in patients receiving selumetinib. CONCLUSIONS This study failed to show improvement in ORR or PFS with combination therapy of selumetinib and erlotinib over monotherapy in KRAS mutant and KRAS wild-type advanced NSCLC. The association of immune subsets and immune checkpoint receptor expression with selumetinib may warrant further studies.

Abstract
We present the first measurement of elliptic (v(2)) and triangular (v(3)) flow in high-multiplicity (3)He+Au collisions at √(s(NN))=200 GeV. Two-particle correlations, where the particles have a large separation in pseudorapidity, are compared in (3)He+Au and in p+p collisions and indicate that collective effects dominate the second and third Fourier components for the correlations observed in the (3)He+Au system. The collective behavior is quantified in terms of elliptic v(2) and triangular v(3) anisotropy coefficients measured with respect to their corresponding event planes. The v(2) values are comparable to those previously measured in d+Au collisions at the same nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy. Comparisons with various theoretical predictions are made, including to models where the hot spots created by the impact of the three (3)He nucleons on the Au nucleus expand hydrodynamically to generate the triangular flow. The agreement of these models with data may indicate the formation of low-viscosity quark-gluon plasma even in these small collision systems.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The potential of S-1 for the treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) has been shown in two phase II studies. We aimed to assess the safety, tolerance, pharmacokinetics and clinical activity of S-1 combined with sorafenib in patients with mRCC. PATIENTS AND METHODS In this multicenter, single-arm, open-label, phase I/II study of S-1 plus sorafenib, we recruited patients with clear-cell or papillary renal cell carcinoma who had received a maximum of one prior cytokine-based regimen. The phase I primary end points were the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended dose (RD). S-1 was administered orally at 60, 80, 100 or 120 mg/day on days 1-28 of a 42-day cycle in combination with sorafenib (400 or 800 mg/day), given daily with dose adjustment. In phase II, the primary end point was to assess the overall response rate (ORR) at the RD. RESULTS Nine patients were enrolled into phase I and 21 (including 6 patients who received the RD in the phase I portion) were enrolled into phase II. In the phase I portion, the MTD could not be determined, and the RD was defined as S-1 80 mg/m(2)/day on days 1-28 + sorafenib 800 mg/day on days 1-42. In the phase II portion, 21 patients were fully assessable for efficacy and safety. The confirmed ORR was 52% [95% confidence interval (CI) 29.8-74.3], including one complete response (5%) and 10 partial responses (48%). The median progression-free survival was 9.9 (95% CI 6.5-17.1) months. The most frequently reported treatment-related adverse event for all grades was hand-foot skin reaction (100%). The major reasons for dose reduction were hand-foot skin reaction (38%) and rash (14%). CONCLUSION Combination therapy with S-1 plus sorafenib is effective and tolerable for patients with mRCC. However, skin events management is important in S-1 plus sorafenib combination therapy.

Abstract
Sonoporation has the potential to deliver extraneous molecules into a target tissue non-invasively. There have been numerous investigations of cell membrane permeabilization induced by microbubbles, but very few studies have been carried out to investigate sonoporation by inertial cavitation, especially from a temporal perspective. In the present paper, we show the temporal variations in nano/micro-pit formations following the collapse of inertial cavitation bubbles, with and without Sonazoid® microbubbles. Using agarose S gel as a target material, erosion experiments were conducted in the presence of 1-MHz focused ultrasound applied for various exposure times, Tex (0.002-60 s). Conventional microscopy was used to measure temporal variations in micrometer-scale pit numbers, and atomic force microscopy utilized to detect surface roughness on a nanometer scale. The results demonstrated that nanometer-scale erosion was predominantly caused by Sonazoid® microbubbles and C4F10 gas bubbles for 0.002 s<Tex<1 s, while the number of micrometer-scale pits, caused mainly by inertial cavitation bubbles such as C4F10 gas bubbles and vapor bubbles, increased exponentially with increasing Tex in the range 0.1 s<Tex<10 s. The results of the present study suggest that cavitation-induced sonoporation can produce various pore sizes in membranes, enabling the delivery of external molecules of differing sizes into cells or tissues.

INTRODUCTION We analyzed the relationship between underlying nephropathy and long-term outcomes in kidney transplant recipients. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed data from 678 patients who underwent kidney transplantation (KTx) between 1998 and 2011. Recipients with 13 major nephropathies were evaluated for graft and patient survival, and causes of graft loss. RESULTS The best 10-year graft survival rates (100%) were in the patients with autosomal-dominant polycystic kidney disease, preeclampsia, Alport syndrome, and purpura nephritis. The worst rate (50.8%) was in patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus nephropathy (NIDDMN; P = .039). Causes of graft-loss in the NIDDM patients included chronic rejection (6 cases), acute rejection (3 cases), infection (2 cases), and cardiovascular event (2 cases). Significant risk factors for graft loss were donor age (P < .01) and NIDDMN (P < .01). CONCLUSION Underlying NIDDMN before KTx was a significant risk factor for long-term graft function. Immunologic factors and nonimmunologic factors influenced the long-term outcomes in patients with underlying NIDDMN.

Abstract
In response to sustained damage to a kidney, fibrosis that can be characterized as the deposition of a collagenous matrix occurs and consequently causes chronic kidney failure. Because most animals used in experiments synthesize ascorbic acid (AsA) from glucose, the roles of AsA in fibrotic kidney diseases are largely unknown. Unilateral ureteric obstruction (UUO) mimics the complex pathophysiology of chronic obstructive nephropathy and is an ideal model for the investigation of the roles of AsA in kidney failure. We examined the impact of a deficiency of Akr1a, a gene that encodes aldehyde reductase and is responsible for the production of AsA, on fibrotic damage caused by UUO in mice. Oxidatively modified DNA was elevated in wild-type and Akr1a-deficient kidneys as a result of UUO to a similar extent, and was only slightly suppressed by the administration of AsA. Even though Akrla-deficient mice could produce only about 10% of the AsA produced by wild-type mice, no difference was observed in collagen I synthesis under pathological conditions. The data implied either a low demand for AsA or the presence of another electron donor for collagen I production in the mouse kidney. Next, we attempted to elucidate the potential causes for oxidative damage in kidney cells during the fibrotic change. We found decreases in mitochondrial proteins, particularly in electron transport complexes, at the initial stage of the kidney fibrosis. The data imply that a dysfunction of the mitochondria leads to an elevation of ROS, which results in kidney fibrosis by stimulating cellular transformation to myofibroblasts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to determine the clinical benefit of neoadjuvant methotrexate, doxorubicin, vinblastine, and cisplatin (MVAC) in patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) treated with radical cystectomy. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients with MIBC (T2-4aN0M0) were randomised to receive two cycles of neoadjuvant MVAC followed by radical cystectomy (NAC arm) or radical cystectomy alone (RC arm). The primary end point was overall survival (OS). Secondary end points were progression-free survival, surgery-related complications, adverse events during chemotherapy, proportion with no residual tumour in the cystectomy specimens, and quality of life. To detect an improvement in 5-year OS from 45% in the RC arm to 57% in the NAC arm with 80% power, 176 events were required per arm. RESULTS Patients (N = 130) were randomly assigned to the RC arm (N = 66) and the NAC arm (N = 64). The patient registration was terminated before reaching the initially planned number of patients because of slow accrual. At the second interim analysis just after the early stoppage of patient accrual, the Data and Safety Monitoring Committee recommended early publication of the results because the trial did not have enough power to draw a confirmatory conclusion. OS of the NAC arm was better than that of the RC arm, although the difference was not statistically significant [hazard ratio 0.65, multiplicity adjusted 99.99% confidence interval 0.19-2.18, one-sided P = 0.07]. In the NAC arm and the RC arm, 34% and 9% of the patients had pT0, respectively (P < 0.01). In subgroup analyses, OS in almost all subgroups was in favour of NAC. CONCLUSIONS This trial showed a significantly increased pT0 proportion and favourable OS of patients who received neoadjuvant MVAC. NAC with MVAC can still be considered promising as a standard treatment. UMIN CLINICAL TRIALS REGISTRY IDENTIFIER C000000093.

Abstract
The jet fragmentation function is measured with direct photon-hadron correlations in p+p and Au+Au collisions at √[s(NN)]=200 GeV. The p(T) of the photon is an excellent approximation to the initial p(T) of the jet and the ratio z(T)=p(T)(h)/p(T)(γ) is used as a proxy for the jet fragmentation function. A statistical subtraction is used to extract the direct photon-hadron yields in Au+Au collisions while a photon isolation cut is applied in p+p. I(AA), the ratio of hadron yield opposite the photon in Au+Au to that in p+p, indicates modification of the jet fragmentation function. Suppression, most likely due to energy loss in the medium, is seen at high z(T). The associated hadron yield at low z(T) is enhanced at large angles. Such a trend is expected from redistribution of the lost energy into increased production of low-momentum particles.

Abstract
OBJECT To characterize the progression of injured tissue resulting from a permanent focal cerebral ischemia after the acute phase, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) monitoring was performed on adult male C57BL/6J mice in the subacute stages, and correlated to histological analyses. MATERIAL AND METHODS Lesions were induced by electrocoagulation of the middle cerebral artery. Serial MRI measurements and weighted-images (T2, T1, T2* and Diffusion Tensor Imaging) were performed on a 9.4T scanner. Histological data (Cresyl-Violet staining and laminin-, Iba1- and GFAP-immunostainings) were obtained 1 and 2 weeks after the stroke. RESULTS Two days after stroke, tissues assumed to correspond to the infarct core, were detected as a hyperintensity signal area in T2-weighted images. One week later, low-intensity signal areas appeared. Longitudinal MRI study showed that these areas remained present over the following week, and was mainly linked to a drop of the T2 relaxation time value in the corresponding tissues. Correlation with histological data and immuno-histochemistry showed that these areas corresponded to microglial cells. CONCLUSION The present data provide, for the first time detailed MRI parameters of microglial cells dynamics, allowing its non-invasive monitoring during the chronic stages of a stroke. This could be particularly interesting in regards to emerging anti-inflammatory stroke therapies.
