Abstract
PURPOSE We present a simple, practical framework for truly 4D lung IMRT planning based on a weighted individual-phase optimization paradigm. This strategy is specifically developed for use in real-time tumor tracking delivery systems so as to utilize respiratory motion as an additional degree of freedom rather than a constraint. METHODS A 4D-CT scan from a lung SBRT patient was loaded into the Eclipse treatment planning system. The target and normal structures were manually contoured on each of the ten phases. For each phase, the total dose prescription was scaled by the number of phases and a seven-field plan was developed. An open-source deformable image and dose registration engine (DIRART) was used to deform the dose map at each phase to a reference phase. DVH data from the individually optimized phase plans were input into an in-house linear programming-based optimizer implemented in MATLAB, in order to determine dose-weighting factors for each phase. The objective function aimed to maintain PTV coverage while keeping normal structure dose as low as possible. This weighted-4D plan (W-4D) was compared to an ITV-based plan and a 4D plan with equal dose-weights to individual phases (E-4D). RESULTS The W-4D dose fractions were determined to be 0.33, 0.01, 0.65 and 0.02 at phase 0%, 30%, 40%, and 90%, respectively (and zero elsewhere). PTV coverage (V95) was close to identical for all three strategies. The W-4D plan exhibited mean lung dose 18.8% and 8.5% lower and mean liver dose 23.3% and 5.7% lower than corresponding values from ITV-based and E-4D plans, respectively. CONCLUSIONS By significantly improving normal structure sparing while maintaining PTV coverage, weighted 4D planning represents a more attractive solution than ITV-based planning for (currently investigational) real-time tumor tracking-based delivery systems.

Abstract
During oxidative folding, the formation of disulfide bonds has profound effects on guiding the protein folding pathway. Until now, comparatively little is known about the changes in the conformational dynamics in folding intermediates of proteins that contain only a subset of their native disulfide bonds. In this comprehensive study, we probe the conformational landscape of non-native states of lysozyme containing a single native disulfide bond utilizing nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), circular dichroism (CD) data, and modeling approaches. The impact on conformational dynamics varies widely depending on the loop size of the single disulfide variants and deviates significantly from random coil predictions for both NMR and SAXS data. From these experiments, we conclude that the introduction of single disulfides spanning a large portion of the polypeptide chain shifts the structure and dynamics of hydrophobic core residues of the protein so that these regions exhibit levels of order comparable to the native state on the nanosecond time scale.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to identify clinical and dosimetric factors for the development of radiation pneumonitis (RP) among patients with oesophageal cancer treated with three-dimensional radiotherapy without prophylactic nodal irradiation. METHODS 125 patients with oesophageal cancer had undergone dose-volume histogram (DVH) metrics and received chemoradiotherapy (CRT). Several clinical and dosimetric factors with regard to the lung were evaluated as predictive factors for the development of symptomatic RP. RESULTS 26 patients (20.8%) developed symptomatic RP classified as greater than or equal to Grade 2. By univariate analysis, body weight loss, tumour length, Stage IV, response to treatment and all DVH parameters proved to be significant factors for the development of RP (p < 0.05). By multivariate analysis, Stage IV and all dosimetric factors were independent predictive factors for the development of symptomatic RP (p < 0.05). Recursive partitioning analysis indicated that V10 values of 24.8% or more and Stage IV were associated with higher development of RP (odds ratio 6.53). CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrated that severe RP was also developed in patients treated with the minimal radiation field. Stage IV and the dosimetric factors were identified as independent predictive factors for symptomatic RP in oesophageal cancer patients treated with CRT without prophylactic nodal irradiation.

Abstract
Hydrocortisone was investigated for its ability todifferentiate human leukemia KU812 cells into maturehematopoietic cells including basophils. Hydrocortisonetreatment increased the amount of intracellular histamine byup-regulation of L-histidine decarboxylase (HDC) mRNA andenhanced cell surface expression of the high affinity IgEreceptor FcepsilonRI. Histamine is catalyzed from L-histidine byHDC, which in blood cell types is only expressed in basophilsand mast cells. Cells, on which the FcepsilonRI expression wasenhanced by hydrocortisone, were shown to release histaminewhen stimulated with anti-IgE antibody after sensitizationwith myeloma IgE, implying that the induced FcepsilonRI moleculeswere able to transduce a signal for degranulation. Theseresults suggest that hydrocortisone promotes differentiationof KU812 cells into functionally mature basophilic cells.

Abstract
AIM To confirm the efficacy of vildagliptin in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) by testing the hypothesis that glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) reduction with vildagliptin is superior to that with voglibose after 12 weeks of treatment. METHODS In this 12-week, randomized, double-blind, active-controlled, parallel-group study, the efficacy and safety of vildagliptin (50 mg bid, n = 188) was compared with that of voglibose (0.2 mg tid, n = 192) in patients with T2D who were inadequately controlled with diet and exercise. RESULTS The characteristics of two groups were well matched at baseline. The mean age, body mass index (BMI) and HbA1c were 59.1 years, 24.9 kg/m(2) and 7.6%, respectively. At baseline, fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and 2-h postprandial glucose (PPG) were 9.01 mmol/l (162.2 mg/dl) and 13.57 mmol/l (244.3 mg/dl), respectively. The adjusted mean change in HbA1c from baseline to endpoint was -0.95 +/- 0.04% in the vildagliptin-treated patients and -0.38 +/- 0.04% in those receiving voglibose (between-group change = 0.57 +/- 0.06%, 95% confidence interval (CI) (-0.68 to -0.46%), p < 0.001), showing that vildagliptin was superior to voglibose. Endpoint HbA1c < or = 6.5% was achieved in 51% vildagliptin-treated patients compared with 24% patients who were on voglibose (p < 0.001). Vildagliptin also exhibited significantly (p < 0.001) greater reduction compared with voglibose in both FPG [1.34 vs. 0.43 mmol/l (24.1 vs. 7.8 mg/dl)] and 2-h PPG [2.86 vs. 1.1 mmol/l (51.5 vs. 19.8 mg/dl)]. Overall adverse events (AEs) were lower in the vildagliptin-treated patients compared with that in the voglibose-treated patients (61.2 vs. 71.4%), with no incidence of hypoglycaemia and serious adverse events with vildagliptin. Gastrointestinal AEs were significantly lower with vildagliptin compared with that of the voglibose (18.6 vs. 32.8%; p = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS Vildagliptin (50 mg bid) showed superior efficacy and better tolerability compared with voglibose in Japanese patients with T2D.

Abstract
To elucidate the effects of specific disulfide bridges (Cys6-Cys127, Cys30-Cys115, Cys64-Cys80, and Cys76-Cys94) on the secondary structure of hen lysozyme, the vacuum-ultraviolet circular dichroism (VUVCD) spectra of 13 species of disulfide-deficient variants in which Cys residues were replaced with Ala or Ser residues were measured down to 170 nm at pH 2.9 and 25 degrees C using a synchrotron-radiation VUVCD spectrophotometer. Each variant exhibited a VUVCD spectrum characteristic of a considerable amount of residual secondary structures depending on the positions and numbers of deleted disulfide bridges. The contents of alpha-helices, beta-strands, turns, and unordered structures were estimated with the SELCON3 program using the VUVCD spectra and PDB data of 31 reference proteins. The numbers of alpha-helix and beta-strand segments were also estimated from the VUVCD data. In general, the secondary structures were more effectively stabilized through entropic forces as the number of disulfide bridges increased and as they were formed over larger distances in the primary structure. The structures of three-disulfide variants were similar to that of the wild type, but other variants exhibited diminished alpha-helices with a border between the ordered and disordered structures around the two-disulfide variants. The sequences of the secondary structures were predicted for all the variants by combining VUVCD data with a neural-network method. These results revealed the characteristic role of each disulfide bridge in the formation of secondary structures.

Abstract
2SS[6-127,64-80] variant of lysozyme which has two disulfide bridges, Cys6-Cys127 and Cys64-Cys80, and lacks the other two disulfide bridges, Cys30-Cys115 and Cys76-Cys94, was quite unstructured in water, but a part of the polypeptide chain was gradually frozen into a native-like conformation with increasing glycerol concentration. It was monitored from the protection factors of amide hydrogens against H/D exchange. In solution containing various concentrations of glycerol, H/D exchange reactions were carried out at pH* 3.0 and 4 degrees C. Then, (1)H-(15)N-HSQC spectra of partially deuterated protein were measured in a quenching buffer for H/D exchange (95% DMSO/5% D(2)O mixture at pH* 5.5 adjusted with dichloroacetate). In a solution of 10% glycerol, the protection factors were nearly equal to 10 at most of residues. With increasing glycerol concentration, some selected regions were further protected, and their protection factors reached about a 1000 in 30% glycerol solution. The highly protected residues were included in A-, B-, and C-helices and beta3-strand, and especially centered on Ile 55 and Leu 56. In 2SS[6-127,64-80], long-range interactions were recovered due to the preferential hydration by glycerol in the hydrophobic box of the alpha-domain. Glycerol-induced recovering of the native-like structure is discussed from the viewpoint of molten globules growing with the protein folding. (c) 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
Although angiotensin II (Ang II) causes bronchoconstriction and bronchial hyperresponsiveness to methacholine in mildly asthmatic patients, the responsible mechanisms for these reactions are unclear. The authors examined the effect of intravenous infusion of Ang II on airway constriction in guinea pigs. Furthermore, the effects of subthreshold concentrations of Ang II on bronchial responsiveness to methacholine were investigated. Airway opening pressure (Pao), an index of bronchoconstriction, increased dose dependently after intravenous infusion of 3 and 10 nmol/kg Ang II (72.2 and 236.5 increase above the baseline value, respectively). In another set of experiments, animals received a methacholine inhalation challenge under a constant intravenous infusion of a subthreshold dose of Ang II (2 nmol/kg/min). The Ang II infusion elicited bronchial hyperresponsiveness to methacholine. The provocative concentration of methacholine, which produced a 200% increase above the baseline Pao (PC200), decreased from 306.9 to 156.1 micrograms/mL upon Ang II infusion. Pretreatment with TCV-116, a type 1 Ang II (AT1) receptor antagonist, but not PD123319, a type 2 Ang II (AT2) receptor antagonist, dose dependently prevented both the Ang II-induced bronchoconstriction and bronchial hyperresponsiveness to methacholine. The authors conclude that Ang II caused bronchoconstriction and induced bronchial hyperresponsiveness to methacholine via the AT1 receptors and that this effect did not involve the release of other bronchoactive mediators.

Abstract
(18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) is an effective tool for evaluating the results of radiotherapy. However, some false-positive appearances caused by physiological or pathological accumulation are reported. We report on three patients who showed a high accumulation of FDG in the lingual muscles but had no recurrent tumour after definitive radiotherapy for the mobile tongue. All patients had squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue and received interstitial radiotherapy with small sources. High uptake was seen in the lingual muscles without recurrence or inflammation, based on physical and MR examinations. This false-positive appearance is thought to relate to ill-balanced high activity of the lingual muscles after definitive radiotherapy.
