Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS The molecular mechanisms underlying the promotion of colorectal carcinogenesis by a high-fat diet (HFD) remain unclear. We investigated the role of the insulin-signal pathway and the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway, which reportedly play crucial roles in insulin resistance, during colorectal carcinogenesis in the presence of hyperinsulinaemia induced by a HFD. METHODS Azoxymethane-induced aberrant crypt foci formation and cell proliferation in the colonic epithelium were compared between mice fed a normal diet (ND) and mice fed a HFD. A western blot analysis was performed to elucidate the mechanism affecting colorectal carcinogenesis by a HFD. RESULTS The number of aberrant crypt foci and the colonic epithelial cell proliferative activity were significantly higher in the HFD group than in the ND group. While the plasma insulin level was significantly higher in the HFD group than in the ND group, a western blot analysis revealed the inactivation of Akt, which is located downstream of the insulin receptor, in the colonic epithelia of the HFD group. On the other hand, JNK activity was significantly higher in the HFD group than in the ND group. A JNK specific inhibitor significantly suppressed the increase in epithelial cell proliferation only under a HFD, but not under a ND. CONCLUSIONS Colonic cell proliferation was promoted via the JNK pathway in the presence of a HFD but not in the presence of a ND. This novel mechanism may explain the involvement of the JNK pathway in the effect of dietary fat intake on colon carcinogenesis.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the prevalence and progression of Barrett's epithelium and associated risk factors in Japan. METHODS The study population comprised 869 cases. Endoscopic Barrett's epithelium was diagnosed based on the Prague C & M Criteria. The correlations of clinical factors with the prevalence and progression of endoscopic Barrett's epithelium were examined. RESULTS Endoscopic Barrett's epithelium was diagnosed in 374 cases (43%), in the majority of which the diagnosis was short-segment Barrett's esophagus. The progression of Barrett's epithelium was identified in 47 cases. In univariate and multiple logistic regression analyses, aging, smoking habit, and erosive esophagitis were significantly associated with the prevalence of Barrett's epithelium, whereas aging and erosive esophagitis, especially severe erosive esophagitis, were significant contributing factors to the progression of Barrett's epithelium. CONCLUSIONS Forty-three percent of the total study population was diagnosed as having endoscopic Barrett's epithelium. During the follow-up period, 12.6% of the cases with Barrett's epithelium exhibited progression which was associated with aging and severe erosive esophagitis.

Abstract
We report on the first spectroscopic study of the N=22 nucleus 32Ne at the newly completed RIKEN Radioactive Ion Beam Factory. A single gamma-ray line with an energy of 722(9) keV was observed in both inelastic scattering of a 226 MeV/u 32Ne beam on a carbon target and proton removal from 33Na at 245 MeV/u. This transition is assigned to the deexcitation of the first Jpi=2+ state in 32Ne to the 0+ ground state. Interpreted through comparison with state-of-the-art shell-model calculations, the low excitation energy demonstrates that the "island of inversion" extends to at least N=22 for the Ne isotopes.

Abstract
Two cases of hereditary bleeding disorder diagnosed as haemophilia A were recently observed in Japanese Brown cattle. We sequenced the entire coding region of the factor VIII gene of the affected animals to find a causative mutation. A nucleotide substitution of T to A resulting in an amino acid substitution of leucine to histidine (p.Leu2153His) was identified in a highly conserved residue in the C1 domain of factor VIII. Genotyping of 254 normal animals including the pedigree of the affected animals and randomly sampled animals of different breeds confirmed that the substitution is the causative mutation of cattle haemophilia A.

Abstract
11066 Background: Circulating tumor cell (CTC), a surrogate of distant metastasis, and circulating endothelia cell (CEC), a surrogate of angiogenesis, are potentially useful in the diagnosis of malignant tumors, but clinical significance of CTC/CEC in primary lung cancer (LC) remains unclear. Methods: A total of 342 cases who presented at our institute from August 2007 through December 2008 were included in the study. CTC/CEC in the peripheral blood (7.5mL/4.0mL) were captured and quantitatively evaluated with the “CellSearch” system without knowledge of clinical characteristics of each case. Results: In 42 (30.7%) of 137 LC cases, CTC in the peripheral blood was positive (CTC-count, more than 1 cell/7.5mL), and the maximum CTC-count was 62 cells. In 11 (18.3%) of 145 cases with non-malignant (NM) diseases, CTC was also positive; however, in NM cases, CTC-count was 1 (cell/7.5mL) in most CTC-positive cases and the maximun CTC-count was 2. Among LC cases, the incidence of case with CTC-positive (CTC-count, 1 or more) was highest in small cell carcinoma cases (7/10, 70.0%), followed by squamous cell carcinoma (9/22, 40.9%) and adenocarcinoma (23/94, 24.5%) cases; the incidence of CTC-positive case was significantly higher in stage IV cases (68.6%; p<0.001), but it should be noted that CTC was positive in 17.4% of stage I cases and 15.4% of stage II cases. The mean CEC number (/4.0mL) was significantly higher in LC cases than in NM cases (97.5 versus 52.5, respectively; p=0.023), Among LC cases, the mean CEC significantly increased along with tumor progression (mean CEC for stage I, II, III, and IV cases: 58.7, 57.9, 83.4, and 178.4, respectively; p=0.002). Conclusions: CTC and CEC are useful clinical markers in LC, and its clinical value should be validated in future clinical trials. [Table: see text] No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
e22107 Background: Circulating tumor cell (CTC), a surrogate of distant metastasis, and circulating endothelia cell (CEC), a surrogate of angiogenesis, are potentially useful in the diagnosis of malignant tumors. Following a promising result of our preliminary study showing the diagnostic value of CTC/CEC in malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM)(Tanaka F, et al. ASCO 2008), we conducted a prospective study. Methods: Patients (pts), who presented at our institute with suspicion or diagnosis of MPM, were eligible in the study. CTCs and CECs in peripheral blood (7.5mL and 4.0mL, respectively) were captured and quantitatively evaluated with the “CellSearch” system without knowledge of clinical characteristics of patients. Results: A total of 92 pts were enrolled into the study, and the final diagnosis was MPM in 68, other malignant tumors in 7, and non-malignant diseases in 17 pts ( Table ). CTC was positive (CTC-count, 1 or more per 7.5mL of the peripheral blood) in 35%(24/68) of MPM pts (range of CTC-count, 0–27 cells/7.5 mL). Among non-malignant pts, 3 pts (18%) showed a positive-CTC, but no patient showed 2 or more CTCs in 7.5mL of the peripheral blood. The mean CEC-count (/4.0mL) was significantly higher in MPM pts than in non-malignant pts (105.1 versus 40.2; p=0.047). When the cut-off value of CEC-count for the diagnosis of MPM was defined as 50(cells/4.0mL), the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value for the diagnosis of malignant diseases were 66%, 70%, 93%, and 26%, respectively. There was no correlation between CTC-positivity and clinical stage of MPM pts, but was a trend of increase in the mean CEC-count along with tumor progression (mean CEC-count for stage I, II, III, and IV pts: 63.0, 82.4, 95.6, and 116.7, respectively). Conclusions: CTC and CEC are useful clinical markers in the diagnosis of MPM. [Table: see text] No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine whether there is a correlation between aperitif and gastric emptying. Ten healthy male volunteers participated in this randomized, two-way crossover study. Under two conditions (after drinking an aperitif versus not), the (13)C breath test was performed for 4 h with a liquid meal (200 kcal/200 ml) containing 100 mg (13)C acetate. We used 50 ml of umeshu as the aperitif. This is a traditional Japanese plum liqueur, and contains 7 ml alcohol (14%). In the aperitif group, T(1/2), T(lag), and T(peak) were significantly delayed [T(1/2) (132: 113-174) versus (112: 92-134) (P = 0.0069); T(lag) (80: 63-94) versus (55: 47-85) (P = 0.0069); and T(peak) (81: 62-96) versus (54: 34-84) (P = 0.0069), (median: range, aperitif versus control, min)]. Gastric emptying was significantly delayed in the aperitif group as compared with the control group. This study revealed that even a small amount of alcohol such as an aperitif may contribute to delayed gastric emptying.

Abstract
We report a case with surgery for the 2nd primary double lung cancers-adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma which developed in the right upper lobe after 5 years successful control by chemotherapy for small cell lung cancer in the left upper lobe. Long term survivors with small cell lung cancer have recently increased as a result of progress of chemotherapy. Therefore, 2nd primary lung cancer is not rare after the treatment for the initial small cell lung cancer. Although several causes have been proposed on the development of 2nd primary lung cancer after small cell lung cancer treatment, smoking history was strongly suggested as a cause in this case. Careful follow-up especially focusing on 2nd primary lung cancer development is necessary for patients after successful treatment for small cell lung cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma has enabled good local control to be possible. However, after successful local control, distant recurrences frequently occur in the remnant liver. AIM To identify the predictive factors for distant recurrence after RFA. METHODS A total of 117 patients with initial non-advanced hepatocellular carcinoma with HCV who underwent RFA in our hospital were selected for this study. After transcatheter chemoembolization, RFA was performed under real-time computed tomography-fluoroscopic guidance. We studied survival rates, local (adjacent to treated tumour) and distant (intrahepatic site distant from the treated tumours) recurrence rates, as well as predictive factors for distant recurrence. RESULTS After RFA, survival rates were 98.2% and 64.7% at 1 and 5 years, respectively. Child B patients had a significantly worse survival than Child A. Recurrence rates were 2.4% at 5 years for local, and 17.1% and 76.9% at 1 and 5 years, respectively, for distant. The Kaplan-Meier method revealed significantly high recurrence rates in cases with low albumin levels (Alb < 3.5 g/dL), high aspartate aminotransferase levels (AST > 60 IU/L), high alanine aminotransferase levels (ALT > 60 IU/L), low platelet counts (Plt < 10 x 10(4)/microL), and high alpha-fetoprotein levels (AFP > 50 ng/mL). On multivariate analysis, low Alb levels and high AST levels were independent predictive factors for distant recurrence. CONCLUSIONS Although RFA enables good local control for initial hepatocellular carcinoma, distant recurrence is observed at high rates in HCV patients. Low albumin and high AST levels are predictive factors for distant recurrence.
