Abstract
OBJECTIVES Knee osteoarthritis (OA) pain is suggested to be associated with inflammation and detrimental mechanical loading across the joint. In this cross-sectional study, we simultaneously examined the inflammation and alignment of the lower limb and examined how the pain components varied depending on the disease progression. DESIGN One-hundred sixty female medial type of early- [n = 74 in Kellgren-Lawrence (K/L) 2] to advanced-stage (n = 96 in K/L >2) knee OA subjects (70.5 years on average) were enrolled. Knee pain was evaluated using a pain visual analog scale (VAS) and the pain-related subcategory of the Japanese Knee Osteoarthritis Measure (JKOM-pain). The serum interleukin (sIL)-6 level reflecting synovitis, and the high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) level were measured to evaluate the severity of inflammation. The anatomical axis angle (AAA) was measured as an alignment index. The β-coefficient was estimated after adjusting for age and the body mass index (BMI) using a multiple linear regression analysis. RESULTS Multiple linear regression analyses showed that the sIL-6 levels, but not AAA, associated with the pain VAS [β = 10.77 (95% confidence interval (CI): 4.14-17.40), P < 0.01] and JKOM-pain scores [β = 3.19 (95% CI: 1.93-4.44), P < 0.001] in the early stage. Conversely, AAA, but not the sIL-6 levels, was found to be associated with the pain VAS [β = -1.29 (95% CI: -2.51 to -0.08), P < 0.05] and JKOM-pain scores [β = -0.49 (95% CI: -0.82 to -0.16), P < 0.01] in the advanced stage. CONCLUSIONS The presence of a higher level of sIL-6 and the varus alignment of the joint is associated with pain in early- and advanced-stage knee OA patients, respectively.

Abstract
We report on female siblings with pyknodysostosis who showed common clinical and radiographic features including disproportionate short stature, dental abnormalities, increased bone density, open fontanelle, and acroosteolysis. Sequence analysis of the cathepsin K (CTSK) gene demonstrated compound heterozygous mutations (935 C>T, A277V and 489 G>C, R122P) in the affected siblings and a heterozygous mutation in their parents. The former missense mutation has previously been reported in 6 unrelated patients, and the latter seemed to be a novel mutation. Atomic model assessment of the CTSK gene revealed that the R122P mutant could disrupt hydrogen bonds binding with chondroitin 4-sulfate leading to a decrease in the collagen-degrading activity of cathepsin K.

Abstract
Lesch-Nyhan syndrome is caused by a deficiency of hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT) encoded by HPRT1. About 20% of patients have a deletion of HPRT1 and large deletions of HPRT1 are not always fully characterized at the molecular level. Here, we report on a case of Lesch-Nyhan syndrome with a 33-kb deletion involving exon 1 of HPRT1. This novel mutation is caused by a nonhomologous recombination between different classes of interspersed repetitive DNA.

Abstract
Changes in gene expression in CD3+ T cells associated with disease progression in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients were determined. The genes related to SLE disease-related activities were identified and their gene regulatory networks were investigated. Analyses of gene expression were performed by both DNA microarray and real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The expression of certain genes including interferon (IFN) regulatory factor (IRF)-related genes, such as IFN-regulated, -related, and -signature genes was increased in the active phase of SLE. Pathway network analyses suggested that these IRF-related genes are regulated through the Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK/STAT) pathway. JAK/STAT pathway-mediated regulation of IRF-related genes may have an important role in the disease activity of SLE. Inhibitors of JAK/STAT cascade may be useful as therapeutic agents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The pathogenic mechanisms of atopic dermatitis (AD) and recurrent wheezing (RW) during infancy are not fully understood. OBJECTIVE We evaluated immunological markers associated with AD and RW during infancy. METHODS We followed a cohort (n = 314) from birth to 14 months of age. Some of the participants underwent a physical examination and blood test at 6 and 14 months of age. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis and receiver operating characteristic curve analysis were performed to find which immunological markers could be risk factors for AD and RW. RESULTS Of 16 immunological markers found in cord blood, only immunoglobulin (Ig) E was associated with AD at 6 months of age (adjusted OR [aOR], 1.607). None of the markers was associated with AD or RW at 14 months of age. Of 23 immunological markers at 6 months of age, total IgE (aOR, 1.018) and sensitization to egg white (aOR, 23.246) were associated with AD at 14 months of age. Phytohemagglutinin (PHA)-induced production of interleukin (IL) 4 from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) (aOR, 1.043) was associated with RW at 14 months of age. CONCLUSION Cord blood IgE was a risk factor for AD at 6 months of age. Total IgE and sensitization to egg white at 6 months of age were risk factors for AD at 14 months of age. PHA-induced IL-4 production in PBMCs at 6 months of age was a risk factor for RW at 14 months of age.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lubiprostone is a prostone analog with a novel mechanism of action involving type-2 chloride channel activation. The aim of this work was to perform a dose-finding study for lubiprostone for the treatment of constipation with or without irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) in Japan. METHODS A total of 170 patients (128 without IBS and 42 with IBS) with chronic idiopathic constipation (CIC) randomly received a placebo (n=42) or 16μg (n=41), 32μg (n=43), or 48μg (n=44) of lubiprostone daily for 2weeks. KEY RESULTS There was a statistically significant and dose-dependent increase in change from baseline in the weekly average number of spontaneous bowel movements at week 1 (placebo: 1.5±0.4; 16μg: 2.3±0.4, 32μg: 3.5±0.5; and 48μg: 6.8±1.1, per week, mean±SE; P<0.0001). These primary endpoint results were significant on stratified analysis when patients were limited to those without IBS (P<0.0001). The primary endpoint in patients with IBS treated with 48μg of lubiprostone was significantly better than those given placebo (P=0.0086). Dose dependency was also seen for the secondary efficacy endpoints. Lubiprostone produced no serious side effects. CONCLUSIONS & INFERENCES Our results suggest that lubiprostone produced a steady and effective improvement in the symptoms of CIC with or without IBS in a dose-dependent manner with a good safety profile and tolerability in a Japanese population.

Abstract
IntroductionConsidering that infants are brought up by their mothers, we believe that they learn emotional interaction and facial expressions from their mothers. However, brain activation in infants while they view maternal facial expressions has rarely been studied.ObjectivesThis preliminary study aimed at investigating the peculiarity of infants’ perception of maternal facial expressions by measuring hemodynamic activations in an infant's brain.MethodsParticipant was one healthy 6-month-old infant. Facial expression images of 2 persons (participant's mother, an unknown woman [stranger]) were used as test stimuli and 2 vegetable images were used as control. In each trial, initially, neutral face of the persons or vegetable was presented to the child, followed by her expressional face or another vegetable. While trials, we recorded the hemodynamic responses of his prefrontal and occipital cortices using near-infrared spectroscopy.ResultsThe oxygenated hemoglobin (oxy-Hb) concentration was calculated. In the prefrontal cortex, the levels showed a greater increase when viewing the mother's expressions than the stranger's expression or control. In contrast, no difference was found in the occipital cortex.Fig. 1ConclusionsOur findings suggest that infants are peculiarly sensitive to their mothers’ expressions. Thus, mother-infant interaction may appear important in the development of interpersonal recognition.

Abstract
The pathogenesis of aortic aneurysm (AA) is characterized by degradation of extracellular matrix with increased matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and inflammatory reaction. Doxycycline (DOXY) has been reported to control the extension of AA by regulation of MMP. However, systemic administration may cause adverse side effects. In this study, we demonstrated the possibility of local administration of DOXY controlled-release biodegradable fiber (DCRBF) for AA in mice. DCRBF was fabricated by biodegradable polymer (polylactic acid; PLA) mixed with DOXY using an electrospinning technique. DCRBF was cocultured with SMCs, macrophages and aortic tissue, and placed on an abdominal aortic aneurysm which induced apolipoprotein E-deficient mice. We evaluated gene and protein expression of proteases, elastin and inflammatory markers. In the presence of DCRBF, MMP-12 was significantly decreased, TGF-β1 and Lox were significantly increased in SMC gene expression, MMP-9 and -12 significantly decreased gene expression of macrophages. The DCRBF preserved elastin content and decreased MMP-2 and -9 in aortic tissue. In addition, IGF-1 and TIMP-1 were significantly increased and IL-6 and TNF-α were significantly decreased with DCRBF in vivo. In conclusion, our results suggested that local administration of DCRBF may become a promising alternative therapeutic strategy for AA.
