Abstract
Smad3-deficient mice exhibit accelerated re-epithelialization and tissue remodeling during palatal wound repair. In addition, transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1) and other inflammatory factors are down-regulated compared with those in wild-type mice. The aim of this study was to examine whether targeting of Smad3 with small interfering RNA (siRNA) accelerates wound-healing and inhibits wound contraction in palatal mucoperiosteal wounds. An initial histological examination of wound closure in mouse palates treated with Smad3-targeted siRNA vs. a scrambled siRNA found that wound-healing was accelerated when levels of Smad3 were decreased. Furthermore, with real-time PCR, mRNA levels of Smad3, TGF-β1, monocyte chemotactic protein-1 ( MCP-1), and macrophage inflammatory protein-1α ( MIP-1α) were found to be significantly down-regulated in palatal tissue treated with Smad3–targeted siRNA vs. a control siRNA. Protein and mRNA levels of α-smooth-muscle actin (α-SMA), type I collagen, and fibronectin were also lower in palates treated with Smad3-targeted siRNA vs. control siRNA. Taken together, these results indicate that down-regulation of Smad3 expression by siRNA can accelerate wound-healing and may inhibit wound contraction. Therefore, siRNA-targeted inhibition of Smad3 may represent a valuable therapeutic tool for palatal mucoperiosteal wound-healing.

Abstract
The usefulness of a covered self-expandable metallic stent for benign esophageal stricture and perforation was well established. In case of benign disease, early stent removal was recommended within 6-8 weeks after placement. A case with severe esophageal stricture caused by incomplete stent removal 7 years after stent placement for spontaneous esophageal rupture was reported. Residual stent fragments could be removed by step-by-step multimodal endoscopic treatment, producing satisfactory luminal diameter of the esophagus. In particular, stent trimming with argon plasma coagulation was safe and effective strategy. The endoscopic stent removal is minimally invasive and should be attempted before surgical intervention; however, it is most important to ensure early stent removal before tissue ingrowth or overgrowth can develop.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Minimally invasive esophagectomy has been increasingly accepted to treat esophageal cancer. In Japan, neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by surgery has become the standard procedure for advanced esophageal cancer. A randomized control study has shown neoadjuvant chemotherapy's survival benefits, but it is unknown whether minimally invasive esophagectomy after chemotherapy is viable. This study investigated the feasibility of thoracoscopic esophagectomy after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. METHODS From a database of patients with esophageal cancer, 105 patients who had undergone thoracoscopic esophagectomy with radical lymphadenectomy were analyzed retrospectively. Among them, 51 patients had received neoadjuvant chemotherapy with 5-fluorouracil and cisplatin (NAC group). Their operative outcomes, including operative duration, blood loss, the number of dissected lymph nodes, and postoperative morbidity and mortality, were compared with those of 54 patients who underwent surgery without neoadjuvant chemotherapy (control group). The efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy was also assessed. RESULTS The operating time in the NAC group was significantly longer than in the control group (543 vs 472 min, P < 0.001), but the blood loss was less (323 vs 528 mL, P < 0.001). Recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy was the most frequently observed complication in both groups (27% vs 32%, P = 0.65). No significant differences were observed in the frequency of postoperative complications. There was no mortality in either group. In the NAC group, 43 patients (84.3%) underwent curative resection, and response of more than two-thirds of the pathological tumor was achieved in 11 patients (21.6%), including complete response in one patient (2.0%). CONCLUSION Thoracoscopic esophagectomy following neoadjuvant chemotherapy could be safely adopted for patients with advanced esophageal cancer.

Abstract
Intracellular recordings were made from rat hippocampal CA1 neurons in rat brain slice preparations to investigate whether cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) and calcium/phospholipid-dependent protein kinase C (PKC) contribute to the membrane dysfunction induced by oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD). Superfusion of oxygen- and glucose-deprived medium produced a rapid depolarization ∼5 min after the onset of the superfusion. When oxygen and glucose were reintroduced immediately after the rapid depolarization, the membrane depolarized further (persistent depolarization) and reached 0 mV after 5 min from the reintroduction. The pretreatment of the slice preparation with PKA inhibitors, H-89 and Rp-cAMPS, and an adenylate cyclase inhibitor, SQ 22, 536, significantly restored the membrane toward the preexposure potential level after the reintroduction of oxygen and glucose in a concentration-dependent manner. On the other hand, a phospholipase C inhibitor, U73122, a PKC inhibitor, GF109203X, and a nonselective protein kinase inhibitor, staurosporine, also significantly restored the membrane after the reintroduction. Moreover, an inositol-1,4,5-triphosphate receptor antagonist, 2-aminoethyl diphenylborinate, and calmodulin inhibitors, trifluoperazine and W-7, significantly restored the membrane after the reintroduction, while neither an α-subunit-selective antagonist for stimulatory G protein, NF449, a Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent kinase II inhibitor, KN-62, nor a myosin light chain kinase inhibitor, ML-7, significantly restored the membrane after the reintroduction. These results suggest that the activation of PKA and/or PKC prevents the recovery from the persistent depolarization produced by OGD. The Ca(2+)/calmodulin-stimulated adenylate cyclase may contribute to the activation of PKA.

Abstract
A multi-functional compound-eye endoscope enabling variable field-of-view and polarization imaging as well as extremely deep focus is presented, which is based on a compact compound-eye camera called TOMBO (thin observation module by bound optics). Fixed and movable mirrors are introduced to control the field of view. Metal-wire-grid polarizer thin film applicable to both of visible and near-infrared lights is attached to the lenses in TOMBO and light sources. Control of the field-of-view, polarization and wavelength of the illumination realizes several observation modes such as three-dimensional shape measurement, wide field-of-view, and close-up observation of the superficial tissues and structures beneath the skin.

Abstract
Purpose. The purpose of this paper is to clarify the validity of the Interaction Rating Scale Advanced (IRSA) as an evidence-based practical index of social skills. Methods. The participants in our study were 17 high school students. The participants completed the five-minute interaction session and were observed using the IRSA. Their teacher evaluated their social competence based on regular observation in school. Results. The results indicated the high correlation between IRSA scores and teacher's practical evaluation. IRSA can measure social competence with high validity. Conclusion. The IRSA provides further evidence of the fact that in order to study social competence development, it is important to evaluate various features of the interaction like IRSA subscales.

Abstract
340 Background: Gallbladder cancer (GBC) is one of the most common malignancies of the biliary tract. Because of the lack of specific presentations, this condition is frequently diagnosed only at an advanced stage. Obstructive jaundice is generally regarded as an indicator of far advanced disease, unresectability, and poor prognosis. The aim of this study was to evaluate clinicopathological factors, especially jaundice, influencing outcome after radical resection of gallbladder cancer, in order to identify the patients benefiting from radical surgery. Methods: Seventy-five patients with GBC underwent surgical resection between 1998 and 2008. A retrospective analysis was conducted on sixty-four patients with UICC T2 or more tumors. Clinicopathologic features, extents of resection, and survival rates were investigated retrospectively. Obstructive jaundice was defined that serum T-bil level was more than 2.0 mg/ml. Patients with jaundice underwent ENBD or PTBD and curative resection was performed when serum T-Bil level decreased below 2.0 mg/ml. Right after laparotomy, para-aortic lymphadenectomy and frozen section pathology were performed to convert a radical resection to a palliative procedure when a para-aortic lymph node was positive. Results: The three and five-year disease-specific survival rates were 47% and 41%, respectively. Nine patients survived for more than five years.Univariate analysis showed that blood loss during operation, hepatic invasion, portal vein invasion, N category, M category after postoperative pathological examination and residual tumor were significant prognostic factors (p<0.05), but multivariate analysis showed that M category only was independent prognostic factor (p<0.05). Five-year disease-specific survival rates for patients with (n=37) and without (n=27) obstructive jaundice were 47% and 35%, respectively (p=0.69). Conclusions: Obstructive jaundice had no impact on postoperative survival as long as metastatic disease was exclueded and adequate resection of the hepatic hilum was performed. Aggressive surgery might bring long-term survival in selected patients even with obstructive jaundice by advanced gallbladder cancer. No significant financial relationships to disclose.
