Abstract
BACKGROUND Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors reduce progression of chronic kidney disease and the risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in a wide range of patients. However, their effects on kidney disease progression in some patients with chronic kidney disease are unclear because few clinical kidney outcomes occurred among such patients in the completed trials. In particular, some guidelines stratify their level of recommendation about who should be treated with SGLT2 inhibitors based on diabetes status and albuminuria. We aimed to assess the effects of empagliflozin on progression of chronic kidney disease both overall and among specific types of participants in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA), and included individuals aged 18 years or older with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or with an eGFR of 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher. We explored the effects of 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily versus placebo on the annualised rate of change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR slope), a tertiary outcome. We studied the acute slope (from randomisation to 2 months) and chronic slope (from 2 months onwards) separately, using shared parameter models to estimate the latter. Analyses were done in all randomly assigned participants by intention to treat. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and then followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroups of eGFR included 2282 (34·5%) participants with an eGFR of less than 30 mL/min per 1·73 m2, 2928 (44·3%) with an eGFR of 30 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, and 1399 (21·2%) with an eGFR 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2 or higher. Prespecified subgroups of uACR included 1328 (20·1%) with a uACR of less than 30 mg/g, 1864 (28·2%) with a uACR of 30 to 300 mg/g, and 3417 (51·7%) with a uACR of more than 300 mg/g. Overall, allocation to empagliflozin caused an acute 2·12 mL/min per 1·73 m2 (95% CI 1·83-2·41) reduction in eGFR, equivalent to a 6% (5-6) dip in the first 2 months. After this, it halved the chronic slope from -2·75 to -1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (relative difference 50%, 95% CI 42-58). The absolute and relative benefits of empagliflozin on the magnitude of the chronic slope varied significantly depending on diabetes status and baseline levels of eGFR and uACR. In particular, the absolute difference in chronic slopes was lower in patients with lower baseline uACR, but because this group progressed more slowly than those with higher uACR, this translated to a larger relative difference in chronic slopes in this group (86% [36-136] reduction in the chronic slope among those with baseline uACR <30 mg/g compared with a 29% [19-38] reduction for those with baseline uACR ≥2000 mg/g; ptrend<0·0001). INTERPRETATION Empagliflozin slowed the rate of progression of chronic kidney disease among all types of participant in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial, including those with little albuminuria. Albuminuria alone should not be used to determine whether to treat with an SGLT2 inhibitor. FUNDING Boehringer Ingelheim and Eli Lilly.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The EMPA-KIDNEY trial showed that empagliflozin reduced the risk of the primary composite outcome of kidney disease progression or cardiovascular death in patients with chronic kidney disease mainly through slowing progression. We aimed to assess how effects of empagliflozin might differ by primary kidney disease across its broad population. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA). Patients were eligible if their estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher at screening. They were randomly assigned (1:1) to 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily or matching placebo. Effects on kidney disease progression (defined as a sustained ≥40% eGFR decline from randomisation, end-stage kidney disease, a sustained eGFR below 10 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or death from kidney failure) were assessed using prespecified Cox models, and eGFR slope analyses used shared parameter models. Subgroup comparisons were performed by including relevant interaction terms in models. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroupings by primary kidney disease included 2057 (31·1%) participants with diabetic kidney disease, 1669 (25·3%) with glomerular disease, 1445 (21·9%) with hypertensive or renovascular disease, and 1438 (21·8%) with other or unknown causes. Kidney disease progression occurred in 384 (11·6%) of 3304 patients in the empagliflozin group and 504 (15·2%) of 3305 patients in the placebo group (hazard ratio 0·71 [95% CI 0·62-0·81]), with no evidence that the relative effect size varied significantly by primary kidney disease (pheterogeneity=0·62). The between-group difference in chronic eGFR slopes (ie, from 2 months to final follow-up) was 1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (95% CI 1·16-1·59), representing a 50% (42-58) reduction in the rate of chronic eGFR decline. This relative effect of empagliflozin on chronic eGFR slope was similar in analyses by different primary kidney diseases, including in explorations by type of glomerular disease and diabetes (p values for heterogeneity all >0·1). INTERPRETATION In a broad range of patients with chronic kidney disease at risk of progression, including a wide range of non-diabetic causes of chronic kidney disease, empagliflozin reduced risk of kidney disease progression. Relative effect sizes were broadly similar irrespective of the cause of primary kidney disease, suggesting that SGLT2 inhibitors should be part of a standard of care to minimise risk of kidney failure in chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
The near-Earth carbonaceous asteroid 162173 Ryugu is thought to have been produced from a parent body that contained water ice and organic molecules. The Hayabusa2 spacecraft has obtained global multicolor images of Ryugu. Geomorphological features present include a circum-equatorial ridge, east-west dichotomy, high boulder abundances across the entire surface, and impact craters. Age estimates from the craters indicate a resurfacing age of [Formula: see text] years for the top 1-meter layer. Ryugu is among the darkest known bodies in the Solar System. The high abundance and spectral properties of boulders are consistent with moderately dehydrated materials, analogous to thermally metamorphosed meteorites found on Earth. The general uniformity in color across Ryugu's surface supports partial dehydration due to internal heating of the asteroid's parent body.

Abstract
We developed a set of universal PCR primers (MiFish-U/E) for metabarcoding environmental DNA (eDNA) from fishes. Primers were designed using aligned whole mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) sequences from 880 species, supplemented by partial mitogenome sequences from 160 elasmobranchs (sharks and rays). The primers target a hypervariable region of the 12S rRNA gene (163-185 bp), which contains sufficient information to identify fishes to taxonomic family, genus and species except for some closely related congeners. To test versatility of the primers across a diverse range of fishes, we sampled eDNA from four tanks in the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium with known species compositions, prepared dual-indexed libraries and performed paired-end sequencing of the region using high-throughput next-generation sequencing technologies. Out of the 180 marine fish species contained in the four tanks with reference sequences in a custom database, we detected 168 species (93.3%) distributed across 59 families and 123 genera. These fishes are not only taxonomically diverse, ranging from sharks and rays to higher teleosts, but are also greatly varied in their ecology, including both pelagic and benthic species living in shallow coastal to deep waters. We also sampled natural seawaters around coral reefs near the aquarium and detected 93 fish species using this approach. Of the 93 species, 64 were not detected in the four aquarium tanks, rendering the total number of species detected to 232 (from 70 families and 152 genera). The metabarcoding approach presented here is non-invasive, more efficient, more cost-effective and more sensitive than the traditional survey methods. It has the potential to serve as an alternative (or complementary) tool for biodiversity monitoring that revolutionizes natural resource management and ecological studies of fish communities on larger spatial and temporal scales.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Knowledge regarding the association between dietary sodium intake and the incidence of masked hypertension is limited. METHODS A total of 193 Japanese type 2 diabetic outpatients who had been treated with antihypertensive agents and with office blood pressures <140/90 mm Hg were recruited. Masked hypertension was defined as having office blood pressure <140/90 mm Hg and 24-h mean ambulatory blood pressure ≥130/80 mm Hg. The dietary sodium intake was estimated by measuring the 24-h urinary sodium excretion. RESULTS Masked hypertension was found in 128 (66.3%) patients. An age- and sex-adjusted univariate logistic regression analysis showed that urinary albumin excretion, renin-angiotensin system inhibitor use, office systolic blood pressure, and amount of dietary sodium intake were significantly associated with masked hypertension. A multivariate logistic regression analysis also identified an older age, renin-angiotensin system inhibitor use, an office elevated systolic blood pressure, and high dietary sodium intake to be independently associated with masked hypertension. When compared with those who consumed a low salt diet (sodium <120 mEq/day), the odds ratio for the risk of exhibiting masked hypertension in patients who consumed a medium salt diet (sodium 120 to <200 mEq/day) or a high salt diet (sodium ≥200 mEq/day) were 5.3 (P < 0.001) and 12.6 (P < 0.001), respectively. CONCLUSIONS Masked hypertension is a common feature in type 2 diabetic patients being treated for hypertension. The observed association with sodium intake raised the hypothesis that excessive sodium intake may play a part in the genesis of masked hypertension in these patients.

Abstract
A retrospective study was carried out to compare the preventive effects of single and repeat treatment with dexamethasone (DEX) on delayed nausea and emesis in patients who had received carboplatin (CBDCA)-based combination chemotherapy. Sixty-four patients were evaluated. Efficacy was assessed using the nausea and emesis score, food intake score and the requirement for antiemetic medication. These forward scores were categorized as three-grade during the first 5 days after chemotherapy. Acute nausea and emesis were well controlled in both groups on day 1. Mean values of the nausea and emesis score on day 3 evening and the food intake score on day 4 morning in the repeat-treatment group was 1.31 ± 0.93 and 3.46 ± 1.03, respectively, which were significantly better when compared with the single-treatment group (2.00 ± 1.52; P = 0.028 and 2.79 ± 1.12; P = 0.018, respectively). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that less frequent dispensing of antiemetic medication was significantly associated with the repeat-treatment group (adjusted odds ratio, 0.153; 95% confidence interval, 0.026-0.734; P = 0.018). These results suggest that repeat-dose DEX may be more effective than single-dose DEX for the prevention of delayed nausea and emesis after CBDCA-based combination chemotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS A small amount of free air, visible on CT but not on plain chest radiography, which appeared following endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) of a gastric neoplasm without endoscopically visible perforation, was defined as a "transmural air leak", and a prospective, consecutive entry study was performed to determine its incidence and clinical significance. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between January 2006 and September 2008, ESD was performed for 246 gastric lesions in 246 consecutive patients. Abdominal CT scan was performed 1 day after ESD. In addition, chest radiography and blood biochemistry tests were performed at different time points before and after ESD. RESULTS Two hundred and nineteen lesions (89 %) were curatively removed by ESD. Among the total of 246 patients, we encountered endoscopically visible perforation during ESD in 2 patients (0.8 %), and clinically suspected perforation diagnosed by the presence of free air on chest radiography but invisible during ESD in 3 patients (1 %), while transmural air leak was observed in another 33 (13 %). Air leak occurred in cases where resection size was larger, procedure time longer, and the muscularis propria on the ulcer base was exposed at the end of ESD. Patients with air leaks developed pyrexia at a higher rate than those without (36 % vs. 16 %, P = 0.018). These patients recovered with antibiotics and required no endoscopic or surgical intervention. The presence of an air leak did not affect the duration of hospital stay. CONCLUSIONS A transmural air leak was observed in 13 % of the patients undergoing ESD. Larger resection size, prolonged procedure time, and exposure of the muscularis propria on the ulcer base were risk factors for transmural air leak, but the outcome of patients with this complication was good.

Abstract
A thick-target thick-catcher experiment was performed to measure the formation cross sections and recoil momenta of products from target fragmentation of Cu, Nb, Pr, and Au by using gamma-ray spectrometry. Bombardments of C ions (180, 290, and 400 MeV/u) and Ar ions (290 and 650 MeV/u) were performed at the HIMAC facility in Japan. The results were discussed in comparison with systematics of fragmentation and used to deduce the prefragments in fragmentation process of the measured systems.

Abstract
e16064 Background: The proportion of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CRCC) cases diagnosed at pT1a is known to be increasing significantly. Although their prognosis is excellent in general, some cases show distant metastasis. Most of proposed prognostic factors are based on mainly large sized CRCC data. The prognostic factors for small sized CRCC, especially for pT1a cases, aren't well described. Methods: Three hundred three pT1a CRCC cases were retrieved from authors’ institution files. All cases were reviewed by the single uropathologist (T. Tsuzuki). For each case, the following pathological parameters were analyzed: patient age, tumor location (upper, middle, low), Furhman grade, presence of capsule, presence of lympho-vascular invasion, growth pattern (expansive or infiltrating), presence of scar, presence of hemorrhage, and presence of necrosis. Results: Male to female ratio was 4.4. Patient's age ranged from 21 to 85 years (median: 59 years). Follow up duration ranged from one to 225 months (median: 59 months). 35 cases showed distant metastasis. The 5-year and 10-year cause specific survival rate were 96.9%, 93.0%. The 5-year and 10-year recurrence free survival rate were 91.8%, 83.9%. Furhman grade (grade 1+2+3 vs. 4), presence of lympho-vascular invasion, infiltrating growth pattern, and presence of necrosis were statistical significant (p < 0.0001). Conclusions: Furhman grade (less than 3 vs. 4), presence of lympho-vascular invasion, growth pattern, and presence of necrosis can be prognostic factors in CRCC in pTa cases. Growth pattern, which is unrecognized concept for prognosis, can be a new prognostic factor in CRCC. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity is a risk factor for acute pancreatitis (AP), but the molecular mechanism remains unclear. Adiponectin, an adipose tissue-derived secretory factor, has anti-inflammatory properties in addition to various biological functions, and its plasma concentrations are reduced in obese subjects. However, the role of adiponectin in AP has not been investigated. AIM To determine the effects of adiponectin on AP. METHODS We investigated the effects of adiponectin on experimental AP by using adiponectin-knockout (APN-KO) mice and adenovirus-mediated adiponectin over-expression. AP was induced by 10 hourly intraperitoneal injections of low-dose caerulein (10 microg/kg) after 2 week feeding of normal chow or a high-fat diet (HFD) in wild-type (WT) and APN-KO mice. We evaluated the severity of AP biochemically and morphologically. RESULTS Low-dose caerulein treatment did not induce pancreatic damage in either WT or APN-KO mice under normal chow feeding. APN-KO mice, but not WT mice, fed a HFD and then treated with caerulein developed pancreatic damage and inflammation, accompanied by increased macrophage/neutrophil infiltration and upregulation of pro-inflammatory mediators such as tumour necrosis factor alpha in the pancreas. Adenovirus-mediated over-expression of adiponectin attenuated the severity of HFD/caerulein-induced AP in APN-KO mice. CONCLUSIONS Adiponectin plays a protective role in caerulein-induced AP in HFD-fed mice.

Abstract
In this study we examined the behavioral pharmacological side effects after recovery from the loss of righting reflex induced by three benzodiazepine receptor agonists - zolpidem, brotizolam and flunitrazepam - in ddY mice. All agents caused marked motor incoordination in the rotarod test and muscle flaccidity in the traction test until 15 min after recovery of righting reflex. Thereafter, the short-acting hypnotics zolpidem and brotizolam showed a faster recovery than the long-acting benzodiazepine flunitrazepam. However, head twitch responses were observed in the mice treated with flunitrazepam, but zolpidem and brotizolam had no such effect. The flunitrazepam-induced head twitch response was antagonized by ketanserin, a 5- HT(2A) receptor antagonist. These results indicate that flunitrazepam, a long-acting benzodiazepine that is nonselective for type I and II benzodiazepine receptors, induces head twitch responses with muscle flaccidity after recovery from the loss of righting reflex caused by these drugs. In addition, these findings suggest the involvement of a 5-HT(2A)-GABA(A) receptor/benzodiazepine interaction in this phenomenon.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of bee products such as honey, royal jelly and propolis on 5-fluorouracil-induced experimental oral mucositis in hamsters. Oral mucositis was induced in hamsters through a combination of 5-fluorouracil and mild abrasions that were made on the cheek pouch. Honey, royal jelly and propolis were thereafter topically administered to the oral mucosa, and then the healing process was examined by measuring the size of the mucositis. Honey (1%, 10% and 100%) and propolis (0.3%, 1% and 3%) ointments did not reduce the size of the mucositis in comparison to the vaseline-treated control group. However, the royal jelly (3%, 10% and 30%) ointments significantly improved the recovery from 5-fluorouracil-induced damage in a dose-dependent manner. These results suggest the possibility that the topical application of royal jelly has a healing effect on severe oral mucositis induced by chemotherapy.

Abstract
One of the clinical problems regarding the use of suppositories for patients is the discharge of the medication itself after the insertion of the suppository. The effects of the discharge of diazepam (DZP) suppositories from the rectum on the plasma DZP concentration and its anticonvulsant action were investigated in rats. The plasma DZP concentration reached a maximum at approx. 30 min after the rectal administration of a 5 mg/kg DZP suppository. The discharge of the DZP suppository from the rectum at 5 or 10 min after rectal administration significantly reduced the plasma DZP concentration and the anticonvulsant action of the DZP suppository against pentylenetetrazol-induced seizures. However, when the suppository was discharged from the rectum after 20 min, the plasma DZP concentration and the anticonvulsant action were only slightly but not significantly decreased. These results suggest that the discharge of the DZP suppository in the early phase, within 20 min, decreases the plasma concentration and the anticonvulsant action of the DZP suppository in rats. Therefore, when the suppository is discharged from the rectum immediately, sufficient observation and proper treatment are necessary.

Abstract
Recently, the treatment of advanced gastric cancer by continuous infusion of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) with low-dose cisplatin (CDDP) has improved efficacy without severe toxicities. The possible effectiveness of 5-FU+low-dose CDDP for colorectal cancer (CRC) is intriguing. One hundred fifty-five patients with far-advanced CRC including at least one measurable lesion were enrolled in a prospective randomized clinical trial funded by the Japanese Foundation for Multidisciplinary Treatment of Cancer. These patients were assigned to the two arms to assess the value of low-dose CDDP when added to a continuous intravenous infusion of 5-FU at a dose of 300 mg/m(2)/24 hrs in a one-week cycle consisting of 5 days of treatment and 2 days of rest for at least 12 weeks. CD-DP was given intravenously at a dose of 3 mg/m(2) on days 1-5 and days 8-12, and then at a dose of 7 mg/m(2) twice a week. Three patients were excluded from the trial. The response rate in the 5-FU+low-dose CDDP arm (n=75) was significantly higher than that in the 5-FU arm (n=77) (25.3% vs. 11.7%; P = 0.037). There was no significant difference in the median overall survival time between the 5-FU+low-dose CDDP arm and the 5-FU arm (479 and 491 days, respectively). Grades 3/4 toxicities occurred infrequently in both arms. The quality of life was almost the same between the arms. Low-dose CDDP improved the response rate while keeping toxicities within clinically acceptable limits. However, this combined treatment did not confer a survival advantage over treatment with continuous infusion of 5-FU alone for patients with far-advanced CRC; that might be attributable to the short CDDP administration setting of 12 weeks.

Abstract
In natural populations of Drosophila melanogaster, an amylase isozyme with the lowest alpha-amylase activity (AMY(1,1)) is predominant. To evaluate the selective significance of AMY(1,1) and its regulatory factor(s), we examined selection experiments in laboratory populations on two distinct food environments. After 300 generations, AMY(1,1) became predominant (89%) in a glucose (a product of AMY)-rich environment, while an isozyme with higher alpha-amylase activity, AMY(1,6), became predominant (83%) in a starch (substrate)-rich environment. We found that the identical alleles of the amylase (Amy) gene, which encodes each of AMY(1,1) and AMY(1,6), were shared between the two populations in the different food environments, employing the nucleotide sequencing of the duplicated Amy genes. Nevertheless, AMY(1,6) homozygotes selected in the starch-rich environment had a twofold higher AMY enzyme activity than those selected in the glucose-rich environment, suggesting a coadaptation of the coding region and its regulatory factor(s) on the genetic background. Such a difference in AMY enzyme activity was not detected between AMY(1,1) homozygotes, suggesting that the effect of the genetic background is epistatic. Our results indicate that natural selection is working on the Amy gene system as a whole for flies to adapt to the various food environments of local populations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The MPZ Thr124Met mutation is characterised by a late onset, pupillary abnormality, deafness, normal or moderate decreased motor nerve conduction velocity, and axonal damage in sural nerve biopsy. OBJECTIVE To investigate the clinical manifestations of the axonal or demyelinating forms of the Japanese MPZ Thr124Met mutation originating in four different areas: Tottori, Nara, Aichi, and Ibaragi. RESULTS Genotyping with DNA microsatellite markers linked to the MPZ gene on chromosome 1q22-q23 showed shared allelic characteristics between 12.65 cM and revealed a common haplotype in all Tottori families. Aichi and Ibaragi families shared parts of the haplotype around the MPZ gene. However, there was no consistency with a Nara family. CONCLUSIONS The high frequency of this peculiar genotype in the Tottori CMT population is presumably due to a founder effect, but in Thr124 it might constitute a mutation hotspot in the MPZ gene.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The goal of this study is to clarify the association between migraine and Serotonin 2C receptor Cys23Ser polymorphism in Japanese population. MATERIALS AND METHOD This study included 37 individuals with migraine with aura (MWA), 80 with migraine without aura, 43 with tension type headache (TH) and 360 with controls. The genotypes of Cys23Ser polymorphism were confirmed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism techniques. RESULTS The Ser allele frequency in control subjects is much less than that in Caucasian population. The Ser allele frequency in patients with MWA was higher than that in control subjects. CONCLUSION The present study provides that 5HTR2c Cys23Ser polymorphism may be associated with MWA in Japanese population.

Abstract
This study characterized the microbial interaction of Peptostreptococcus micros and Prevotella intermedia, the major pathogens of dentoalveolar infection, using a murine model. Subcutaneous injection of P. micros cells in the dorsum of the mouse together with living cells of P. intermedia resulted in a significantly larger abscess when compared with single injection of the organisms (P < 0.02). The abscess size was also significantly increased (P < 0.05) when the plate-cultured cell suspension of P. micros was injected into mouse with the culture filtrate of P. intermedia. The heat-treated culture filtrate of P. intermedia also enhanced the virulence of P. micros. P. micros culture filtrate did not affect the virulence of P. intermedia. Interestingly, the virulence of P. micros appeared to be enhanced even when the culture filtrate of P. intermedia was injected at separate sites in the mouse. These results suggest that a heat-stable product or products of P. intermedia increase the virulence of P. micros indirectly by altering the host condition, whereas living cells of P. micros can directly enhance virulence of P. intermedia.

Abstract
A complete set of candidate disease resistance ( R) genes encoding nucleotide-binding sites (NBSs) was identified in the genome sequence of japonica rice ( Oryza sativaL. var. Nipponbare). These putative R genes were characterized with respect to structural diversity, phylogenetic relationships and chromosomal distribution, and compared with those in Arabidopsis thaliana. We found 535 NBS-coding sequences, including 480 non-TIR (Toll/IL-1 receptor) NBS-LRR (Leucine Rich Repeat) genes. TIR NBS-LRR genes, which are common in A. thaliana, have not been identified in the rice genome. The number of non-TIR NBS-LRR genes in rice is 8.7 times higher than that in A. thaliana, and they account for about 1% of all of predicted ORFs in the rice genome. Some 76% of the NBS genes were located in 44 gene clusters or in 57 tandem arrays, and 16 apparent gene duplications were detected in these regions. Phylogenetic analyses based both NBS and N-terminal regions classified the genes into about 200 groups, but no deep clades were detected, in contrast to the two distinct clusters found in A. thaliana. The structural and genetic diversity that exists among NBS-LRR proteins in rice is remarkable, and suggests that diversifying selection has played an important role in the evolution of R genes in this agronomically important species.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Between April 1992 and December 2000, 167 patients with pancreatic carcinoma were evaluated and treated in our department. One hundred eight patients (64.7%) with pancreatic carcinoma underwent pancreatectomy. Of these patients, 94 had histologically proven ductal adenocarcinoma. The overall postoperative mortality rate was 3.2% (3 patients), and the morbidity rate was 35.1% (33 patients). The estimated 1-, 2-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates were 43.6%, 28.7%, 21.8%, and 12.9%, respectively. There were only six long-term survivors who survived >5 years after surgery. METHODOLOGY AND AIMS: Institutional experience with 94 consecutive patients with ductal adenocarcinoma who underwent pancreatectomy was reviewed to clarify the influence of 29 prognostic factors (5 host, 17 tumor, and 7 treatment factors). Special reference was made to determine whether these significant factors have an effect on long-term survival. Univariate and multivariate models were used to analyze the effect of prognostic factors on survival. RESULTS Univariate analysis indicated that blood loss, operative time, postoperative complications, histopathologic lymphatic and venous permeation, lymph node metastasis, conclusive stage, conclusive curability, resection margins, serosal invasion, size of tumor, retroperitoneal invasion, major arterial invasion, and mode of histologic infiltration were associated with significantly longer survival (p < 0.05). By Cox proportional hazards survival analysis, the most powerful predictors of outcome were venous permeation, lymph node metastasis, tumor diameter, and conclusive curability. The longest-term survivor had the most advanced stage (stage IV(b)) of disease and curability C. No long-term survivors had all of the good prognostic factors (according to multivariate analysis). CONCLUSIONS The prognosis after surgical resection of pancreatic carcinoma mostly depends on tumor factors. In this study, it was difficult to identify the determinants of long-term survival in patients with resectable tumors.

Abstract
Ikaros, a zinc finger transcription factor, is essential for lymphoid development. Mutant mice expressing dominant-negative Ikaros gene (Ikaros) isoforms develop an aggressive form of lymphoid malignancies. We examined the expression of Ikaros isoforms in 11 leukemic cell lines and adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells from 36 patients with B-precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (pre-B ALL) and nine with T-precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (pre-T ALL), using reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis. In one pre-B ALL cell line, INC cells, and primary leukemic cells from 16 patients with pre-B ALL, we found the predominant expression of a non-DNA-binding Ikaros isoform, Ik-6. However, Ik-6 was not detected in pre-T ALL cells. All of pre-B ALL cells expressing Ik-6 were CD10(+), whereas CD10(-) pre-B ALL cells did not express Ik-6. The expression of Ik-6 was not related to karyotype abnormalities such as t(9;22) and t(4;11). Proteins from the cells that expressed Ik-6 alone failed to bind to the Ikaros protein-specific binding sequence in DNA. Ikaros proteins lacking the DNA binding sequences were detected in the cytoplasm but not in the nucleus of the cells. When INC and primary pre-B ALL cells that express Ik-6 alone were irradiated and cultured in the absence of serum, these cells produced functional Ikaros isoforms, Ik-1 and Ik-2. Purified CD19(+) CD10(-) and CD19(+) CD10(+) cells from normal human bone marrow did not express Ik-6. The predominant expression of Ik-6, which is the result of post-transcription dysregulation, is characteristic of adult pre-B ALL, especially CD10(+) pre-B ALL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A recent study demonstrated that inhibition of both cyclooxygenase (COX)-1 and COX-2 is required for the development of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)-induced gastric lesions. However, the role of COX-1 or COX-2 inhibition in the pathogenisis of these lesions remains unclear. AIM To examine the gastric ulcerogenic properties of selective COX-1 and COX-2 inhibitors in rats and to investigate further the relationship of COX inhibition to various events involved in the process of NSAID-induced gastric lesions. METHODS Animals were given various COX inhibitors p.o., either alone or in combination, and killed 8 h later. Under the treatment, gastric damage, prostaglandin (PG) E2 content, mucosal permeability, myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity as well as gastric motility were examined. RESULTS The nonselective COX inhibitor indomethacin inhibited PGE2 production, enhanced gastric motility, and provoked severe lesions in the stomach, with an increase in mucosal permeability and MPO activity. In contrast, the selective COX-2 inhibitor rofecoxib did not induce any damage in the stomach and had no effect on mucosal PGE2 content. Similarly, the selective COX-1 inhibitor SC-560 also caused no gastric damage, despite inhibiting PGE2 production. The combined administration of SC-560 and rofecoxib, however, provoked gross damage in the gastric mucosa, in a dose-dependent manner for each drug. SC-560, but not rofecoxib, caused marked gastric hypermotility and an increase in mucosal permeability, although an increase in MPO activity was observed only when rofecoxib was coadministered. The normal gastric mucosa expressed COX-1 mRNA and not COX-2 mRNA, but COX-2 mRNA was expressed in the stomach after administration of SC-560 as well as indomethacin but not rofecoxib. CONCLUSION These results suggest that the gastric ulcerogenic properties of NSAIDs are not accounted for solely by COX-1 inhibition, but require the inhibition of both COX-1 and COX-2. The inhibition of COX-1 up- regulates COX-2 expression, and COX-2/PGs may, in turn, counteract the deleterious affects of gastric hypermotility due to COX-1 inhibition.
