Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine whether a minimal intervention based on the data envelopment analysis (DEA)-identified efficiency score effectively prevents hypertension. DESIGN Randomised controlled trial. SETTING Takahata town (Yamagata, Japan). PARTICIPANTS Residents aged 40-74 years belonged to the information provision group for specific health guidance. Participants with a blood pressure ≥140/90 mm Hg, those taking antihypertensive medication, or those with a history of cardiac diseases were excluded. Participants were consecutively assigned based on their health check-up visit at a single centre from September 2019 to November 2020 and were followed up at the check-up in the following year, until 3 December 2021. INTERVENTION A targeted approach using minimal intervention. Target was identified using DEA and 50% of participants with higher risk were targeted. The intervention was notifying the results of their risk of hypertension according to the efficiency score obtained by the DEA. PRIMARY OUTCOME MEASURES A reduction in the proportion of participants who developed hypertension (≥140/90 mm Hg or taking antihypertensive medication). RESULTS A total of 495 eligible participants were randomised, and follow-up data were available for 218 and 227 participants in the intervention and control groups, respectively. The risk difference for the primary outcome was 0.2% (95% CI -7.3 to 6.9) with 38/218 (17.4%) and 40/227 (17.6%) events in the intervention and control group, respectively (Pearson's χ2 test, p=0.880). The adjusted OR of the effect of the intervention was 0.95 (95% CI 0.56 to 1.61, p=0.843), and that of the efficiency score (10-rank increase) was 0.81 (95% CI 0.74 to 0.89, p<0.0001). CONCLUSIONS Minimal intervention to a high-risk population stratified by DEA was not effective in reducing the onset of hypertension in 1 year. The efficiency score could predict the risk of hypertension. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER UMIN000037883.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Fibrates activate peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-α which is associated with lipid metabolism. Bezafibrate is a non-selective PPAR-α agonist, whereas pemafibrate has been developed as a higher selective PPAR-α agonist.
Objective
The efficacy and safety of pemafibrate for 24-week in patients with dyslipidemia was examined in comparison with bezafibrate.
Methods
Sixty patients with hypertriglyceridemia (fasting triglyceride (TG) level of ≥150 mg/dL) were treated with pemafibrate of 0.2 mg/day or bezafibrate of 400 mg/day for 24-week in a randomized cross-over study. Percent change from baseline in TG levels was the primary endpoint, and that in HDL-C and apolipoprotein A-I (Apo A-I) levels was the secondary endpoints.
Results
A significantly greater reduction in TG percent change was observed in pemafibrate than in bezafibrate (−46.1% vs. −34.7%, p<0.001). There was no significant difference in HDL-C percent change between pemafibrate and bezafibrate (18.4% vs. 14.0%, p=0.067), whereas Apo A-I percent change was significantly greater in pemafibrate than in bezafibrate (9.2% vs. 5.7%, p=0.018). Pemafibrate and bezafibrate significantly decreased alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and gamma-glutamyltransferase (γ-GT) levels, and pemafibrate showed a greater reduction than bezafibrate (ALT: −21.9% vs. −10.6%, p=0.048; γ-GT: −43.5% vs. −33.1%, p=0.025). Creatinine levels significantly increased in both treatments (both p<0.001), however, creatinine percent change was significantly smaller in pemafibrate than in bezafibrate (5.72% vs. 15.5%, p<0.001). There was no difference in frequency of adverse event (AE) or serious AE between two treatments, but frequency of creatinine elevation (≥0.5 mg/d and/or 25%) was significantly higher in bezafibrate than in pemafibrate (16/60 vs. 3/60, p=0.004).
Conclusion
As compared with bezafibrate, pemafibrate is more effective to reduce TG levels and to elevate Apo A-I levels, and it is safer in terms of liver and renal function.

Abstract
BackgroundGenome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified 29 disease-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for systemic sclerosis (SSc) in non-human leukocyte antigen (HLA) regions (1-7). While these GWASs have clarified genetic architectures of SSc, study subjects were mainly Caucasians limiting application of the findings to Asians.ObjectivesThe study was conducted to identify novel causal variants for SSc specific to Japanese subjects as well as those shared with European population. We also aimed to clarify mechanistic effects of the variants on pathogenesis of SSc.MethodsA total of 114,108 subjects comprising 1,499 cases and 112,609 controls were enrolled in the two-staged study leading to the ever-largest Asian GWAS for SSc. After applying a strict quality control both for genotype and samples, imputation was conducted using the reference panel of the phase 3v5 1,000 genome project data combined with a high-depth whole-genome sequence data of 3,256 Japanese subjects. We conducted logistic regression analyses and also combined the Japanese GWAS results with those of Europeans (6) by an inverse-variance fixed-effect model. Polygenicity and enrichment of functional annotations were evaluated by linkage disequilibrium score regression (LDSC), Haploreg and IMPACT programs. We also constructed polygenic risk score (PRS) to predict SSc development.ResultsWe identified three (FCRLA-FCGR, TNFAIP3, PLD4) and four (EOMES, ESR1, SLC12A5, TPI1P2) novel loci in Japanese GWAS and a trans-population meta-analysis, respectively. One of Japanese novel risk SNPs, rs6697139, located within FCGR gene clusters had a strong effect size (OR 2.05, P=4.9×10-11). We also found the complete LD variant, rs10917688, was positioned in cis-regulatory element and binding motif for an immunomodulatory transcription factor IRF8 in B cells, another genome-wide significant locus in our trans-ethnic meta-analysis and the previous European GWAS. Notably, the association of risk allele of rs10917688 was significant only in the presence of the risk allele of the IRF8. Intriguingly, rs10917688 was annotated as one enhancer-related histone marks, H3K4me1, in B cells, implying that FCGR gene(s) in B cells may play an important role in the pathogenesis of SSc. Furhtermore, significant heritability enrichment of active histone marks and a transcription factor C-Myc were found in B cells both in European and Japanese populations by LDSC and IMPACT, highlighting a possibility of a shared disease mechanism where abnormal B-cell activation may be one of the key drivers for the disease development. Finally, PRS using effects sizes of European GWAS moderately fit in the development of Japanese SSc (AUC 0.593), paving a path to personalized medicine for SSc.ConclusionOur study identified seven novel susceptibility loci in SSc. Downstream analyses highlighted a novel disease mechanism of SSc where an interactive role of FCGR gene(s) and IRF8 may accelerate the disease development and B cells may play a key role on the pathogenesis of SSc.References[1]F.

Background
Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is sometimes observed during cardiac rehabilitation in patients with surgery for aortic dissection. However, little is known about the primary determinant of OH and influence of surgical range on incidence of OH.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to elucidate the incidence of OH in patients with surgery for aortic dissection, and compare it between the patients with ascending aortic replacement surgery (ascending group) and those with ascending aorta and hemiarch or total arch replacement surgery (arch group).
Methods
We analyzed 59 patients who underwent emergent surgery due to Stanford type A aortic dissection from January 2014 to March 2018, and compared the incidence of OH between ascending group (n = 28, age 69.8 ± 11.3 years) and arch group (n = 31, age 64.1 ± 13.0 years).
Results
The incidence of OH in total patients was 30.5%. There were no significant differences in patient characteristics including body tall, body weight, antihypertensive use and progress of rehabilitation between 2 groups. The arch group showed a significant higher incidence of OH as compared with ascending group (arch group: 46.4% vs. ascending group: 16.1%, p = 0.03). Moreover, the patients who occurred OH were significantly taller than those who did not occur OH.
Conclusions
OH was observed in about one third of patients with surgery for aortic dissection and it showed a close relationship with patient’s height and the range repaired by surgical operation. More careful cardiac rehabilitation is needed for tall patients with large area replacement of aorta.

Abstract
So far, no studies investigated the association between pharmacist intervention and rehabilitation outcomes. The aim of study was to establish whether the pharmacist-led deprescribing intervention affects rehabilitation outcomes. This retrospective, observational, single-center, cohort study included consecutive geriatric patients (n = 448) with pharmacist-led intervention between 2017 and 2019. Participants were divided based on pharmacist-led deprescribing and non deprescribing interventions during hospitalization. Demographic data, laboratory data, the Functional Independence Measure were (FIM) analyzed between the groups. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to analyze the relationship between pharmacist-led deprescribing and FIM total gain. The primary outcome was FIM total gain. The rate of pharmacist intervention during the study period was 92.4%. A multiple linear regression analysis of FMI-T gain, adjusting for confounding factors, revealed that the pharmacist-led deprescribing intervention was independently correlated with FMI-T gain. Particularly, the use of dyslipidemia drugs, antipsychotic drugs, hypnotics, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs significantly decreased during hospitalization. The pharmacist-led deprescribing intervention was independently and significantly associated with FIM-T gain. The pharmacist-led deprescribing intervention improved functional recovery in a rehabilitation setting.

Abstract
Abstract
Background and objective
Living alone is reported as an independent risk factor for worse clinical outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Manifestations of psychological stress such as depression and anxiety in patients living alone is thought to be associated with subsequent cardiovascular events. The impact of living alone on the psychological factors of patients may be differ depending on their living environment. However, comparison of the effects of living alone in different living environment on the prognosis of patients with ACS has not been reported.
Purpose
The aim of the present study was to compare the clinical effect of living alone on clinical outcomes in patients with ACS between urban area and rural area.
Methods
Data from a multi-center, observational study of consecutive patients who underwent emergency PCI for ACS between January 2012 and December 2016 were analyzed. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE). MACCE was defined as composite of cardiovascular death, ACS, and stroke.
Results
In this study, 1349 patients were enrolled and divided into two population according to their living environment: urban area population (n=417), and rural area population (n=932). In urban area population, 87 patients (20.9%) were living alone, and 330 (79.1%) were living together. In rural area population, 169 (18.1%) were living alone, and 763 (81.9%) were living together. There are no significant differences in baseline characteristics between the living alone group and the living together group in both urban area population and rural area population. During a median follow-up period of 2.1 years, Kaplan-Meier curves showed the living alone group had higher risk of MACCE than the living together group in urban area population (log-rank, p=0.01). On the other hands, there are no significant differences in the incidences of MACCE between two groups in rural area population (p=0.86). After adjustment for other covariates, the living alone was significantly associated with MACCE (hazard ratio [HR], 2.83; 95% confidential interval [CI], 1.16–6.91; p=0.02) compared with the living together group in urban area population. However, in rural area population, the living alone group was not significantly associated with MACCE (HR, 1.02; 95% CI, 0.66–1.57; p=0.92) compared with the living together group.
Conclusion
Living alone was significantly associated with worse clinical outcomes after emergency PCI of ACS in urban area but not in rural area.

Abstract
Abstract
Background and objective
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with metallic coronary stent (bare-metal stents [BMS] and drug-eluting stents [DES]) implantation is most frequently performed therapeutic procedures for coronary artery disease. In-stent restenosis (ISR) is a critical drawback of metallic coronary stents. Incidence of ISR has been reported in up to 30% after BMS implantation. The use of DES has greatly reduced the proportion of restenosis compared with the BMS. However, ISR still remains the primary concern after PCI even in the contemporary DES era, and thought to be associated with worse clinical outcomes. However, comparative data on ISR and de novo lesions are rare.
Purpose
The aim of the present study was to compare the clinical outcomes after PCI for the de novo lesion and the ISR lesion.
Methods
We performed a retrospective analysis of patients who underwent PCI between 2013 and 2020. The incidences of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) and all-cause death were evaluated. MACCE was defined as composite of cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and stroke.
Results
In this study, 1538 patients were enrolled and divided into two groups: PCI for de novo lesion group (n=1258, 81.8%), and PCI for ISR lesion group (n=280, 18.2%). Patients in the ISR lesion group were significantly older and had higher prevalence of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia and chronic kidney disease than patients in the de novo lesion group. During a median follow-up period of 1.9 years, Kaplan-Meier curves showed no significant differences in the incidences of MACCE (log-rank, p=0.86) and all-cause death (p=0.84) between two groups. After adjustment for other covariates, PCI for ISR lesion were not significantly associated with MACCE (hazard ratio [HR], 1.10; 95% confidential interval [CI], 0.61–1.97; p=0.76) and all-cause death (HR, 0.93; 95% CI, 0.56–1.56; p=0.79)
Conclusion
PCI for the ISR lesion was not associated with worse clinical outcomes compared with PCI for the de novo lesion.

Abstract
Background
Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) are useful imaging modalities to identify lipid-rich plaque (LRP) which is associated with an increased risk of future cardiovascular events in individuals undergoing PCI. Pathological studies have raised concerns that treating LRP with stents may impair vascular healing. However, the impact of stent implantation to LRP lesions was less known. Moreover, little information is available about changes in the extent of LRP at before and after PCI.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to investigate changes in LRP by NIRS between pre- and post-stent implantation, and to evaluate an association among impact of LRP by NIRS at pre- and post-stenting and late lumen loss (LLL) by angiography.
Methods
We studied 175 lesions in 149 patients who underwent PCI under NIRS-IVUS guidance and follow-up angiography at 8-month later from 2017 to 2020. Plaque characteristics on IVUS, the extent of LRP [defined as a long segment with a 4-mm maximum lipid core burden index (maxLCBI4mm)] on NIRS, and quantitative coronary angiography measurements were analyzed. We evaluated a change of the extent of LRP between pre- and post-stenting at index PCI procedure, and association between the extent of LRP and a 8-month LLL at follow-up coronary angiography. A large LRP was defined as maxLCBI4mm>400 at pre-stenting.
Results
Mean age was 64.5 years old, and 123 (82%) patients were male. The prevalence of large LRP was 51% and median plaque burden at minimum lumen area was 81%. The extent of LRP at culprit lesion significantly decreased from pre- to post-stenting (median maxLCBI4mm [interquartile range (IQR)]: 407 [199, 580] to 133 [13, 319], p<0.001) (Figure 1). In multivariable liner regression analysis, independent predictors for the reduction of LRP were a pre-stenting LRP (β coefficient = −57.0, 95% confidence interval (CI) [−65.1 to −48.8], p<0.001) and plaque burden (β coefficient = −30.0, 95% CI [−56.6 to −3.4], p<0.001), respectively. On the other hands, patient comorbidities, lipid profile and inflammatory markers were not associated with the reduction of LRP (all p>0.05). Median LLL at follow-up angiogram was 0.17 [0.07–0.35] mm. Both the extent of pre- and post-stenting LRP were not associated with LLL (r=0.018, p=0.80 and r=0.022, p=0.76, respectively) (Figure 2). In addition, there was no significant difference in LLL between the post-stenting large and non-large LRP (median [IQR] 0.18 [0.08–0.35] vs. 0.17 [0.07–0.35]; P=0.95).
Conclusions
This study showed coronary stent implantation significantly reduced the NIRS-derived LRP in patients undergoing PCI. Although the extent of pre-stenting LRP and IVUS plaque burden predicted the reduction of LRP, the extent of pre- and post-stenting LRP were not associated with LLL. These findings suggest that stent implantation for LRP, even in a large LRP, is safe and does not affect LLL.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Asians have a much lower incidence of adverse coronary events than Caucasians, and the characteristics of vulnerable plaque might be different among the ethnics.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical characteristics of lipid-rich plaque (LRP) in the Asian population and we also aimed to distinguish the characteristics of an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) culprit lesion and a chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) culprit lesion. Furthermore, we evaluated the association between lipid core burden index (LCBI) and cardiovascular risk factors, lipid profiles, and inflammatory biomarkers, as determined in vivo by near infrared spectroscopy intravascular ultrasound (NIRS-IVUS) imaging in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Methods
We evaluated 207 patients (ACS, n=75; CCS, n=132) who underwent PCI under NIRS-IVUS. Plaque characteristics and the extent of LRP [defined as a long segment with a 4-mm maximum LCBI (maxLCBI4mm)] on NIRS in de-novo culprit and non-culprit segments were analyzed.
Results
The mean age was 65 years old and 82% of patients were male. The ACS culprit lesions had a significantly higher maxLCBI4mm (median [interquartile range (IQR)]: 533 [385–745] vs. 361 [174–527], p<0.001) than the CCS culprit lesions. Whereas, no significant difference was seen in maxLCBI4mm between ACS and CCS non-culprit lesion segments (246 [53, 342] vs. 185 [37, 350], p=0.47) (Figure 1). Receiver-operating characteristic analysis showed that the NIRS maxLCBI4mm could distinguish the ACS culprit segment from the CCS culprit segment, with a sensitivity of 73% and a specificity of 69% (c-statistic = 0.69; p<0.001, cut-off value of max LCBI4mm = 408) (Figure 2). On multivariate logistic analysis, a large LRP (defined as maxLCBI4mm ≥400) was the strongest independent predictor of the ACS culprit segment (odds ratio, 3.87; 95% confidence interval, 1.95–8.02). In non-culprit segments, 19.8% of patients had at least one large LRP without a small lumen. No significant correlation was found between the extent of LRP and circulating lipid profiles and inflammatory makers biomarkers (hs-CRP, IL-6, TNF-α) in both the culprit and non-culprit lesion segments, whereas the extent of LRP was positively correlated with IVUS plaque burden (r=0.24, p<0.001).
Conclusions
We confirmed that NIRS-IVUS plaque assessment could be useful to differentiate ACS from CCS culprit lesions, and that a threshold maxLCBI4mm ≥400 was clinically suitable in Japanese patients. No systemic surrogate markers were found to be associated with the extent of LRP by NIRS in culprit and non-culprit segments. Consequently, we believe that direct intravascular evaluation of coronary plaque characteristics remains important for identification of high-risk LRP.

Abstract
Purpose A tailored approach to individual risk factors for developing lifestyle-related diseases would help induce behavioral changes toward intervention acceptability. The addition of preventive healthcare programs to nationwide specific health guidance in Japan is adapted in a given region. Patients and Methods We conducted a prospective parallel-group comparison study on 195 eligible residents from Takahata, Japan, with a high risk of lifestyle-related diseases from 2014 to 2017 to examine whether such an intervention could improve the body mass index (BMI) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Results Of the 195 enrolled residents, 117 were assigned to the control group and 78 to the intervention group. They were ≤65 years old and had a BMI ≥25 kg/m2 and an eGFR ≤90 mL/kg/1.73 m2. We conducted certain interventions for each group, including additional blood testing, regular health guidance, and specific health guidance. After one year, neither BMI (intervention: 26.7 ± 2.17 kg/m2 vs control: 27.3 ± 2.12 kg/m2, p = 0.076) nor eGFR (intervention: 72.2 ± 11.1 mL/kg/1.73 m2 vs control: 73.1 ± 10.5 mL/kg/1.73 m2, p = 0.608) differed significantly between groups. However, after three years, the BMI in the intervention group (26.4 ± 2.05 kg/m2) was significantly reduced compared to that in the control group (27.4 ± 2.26 kg/m2; p = 0.005). Conclusion The additional interventions might have contributed to a reduction in metabolic syndrome. Trial Registration This study was registered in the UMIN-Clinical Trials Registry (ID:000013581).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery has several advantages over conventional laparoscopy. However, population-based comparative studies for low anterior resection are limited. This article aimed to compare peri-operative results of robot-assisted low anterior resection (RALAR) and laparoscopy. METHODS This retrospective cohort study used data from patients treated with RALAR or conventional laparoscopic low anterior resection (CLLAR) between October 2018 and December 2019, as recorded in the Japanese National Clinical Database, a data set registering clinical information, perioperative outcomes, and mortality. Of note, the registry does not include information on the tumour location (centimetres from the anal verge) and diverting stoma creation. Perioperative outcomes, including rate of conversion to open surgery, were compared between RALAR and CLLAR groups. Confounding factors were adjusted for using propensity score matching. RESULTS Of 21 415 patients treated during the study interval, 20 220 were reviewed. Two homogeneous groups of 2843 patients were created by propensity score matching. The conversion rate to open surgery was significantly lower in the RALAR group than in the CLLAR group (0.7 versus 2.0 per cent; P < 0.001). The RALAR group had a longer operating time (median: 352 versus 283 min; P < 0.001), less intraoperative blood loss (15 versus 20 ml; P < 0.001), a lower in-hospital mortality rate (0.1 versus 0.5 per cent; P = 0.007), and a shorter postoperative hospital stay (median: 13 versus 14 days; P < 0.001) compared with the CLLAR group. The CLLAR group had a lower rate of readmission within 30 days (2.4 versus 3.3 per cent; P = 0.045). CONCLUSION These data highlight the reduced conversion rate, in-hospital mortality rate, intraoperative blood loss, and length of postoperative hospital stay for rectal cancer surgery in patients treated using robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery compared with laparoscopic low anterior resection.

Abstract
Most colorectal cancers (CRCs) are differentiated adenocarcinomas, which maintain expression of both stemness and differentiation markers. This observation suggests that CRC cells could retain a regeneration system of normal cells upon injury. However, the role of stemness in cancer cell regeneration after irradiation is poorly understood. Here, we examined the effect of radiation on growth, stemness, and differentiation in organoids derived from differentiated adenocarcinomas. Following a sublethal dose of irradiation, proliferation and stemness markers, including Wnt target genes, were drastically reduced, but differentiation markers remained. After a static growth phase after high dose of radiation, regrowth foci appeared; these consisted of highly proliferating cells that expressed stem cell markers. Radiosensitivity and the ability to form foci differed among the cancer tissue‐originated spheroid (CTOS) lines examined and showed good correlation with in vivo radiation sensitivity. Pre‐treating organoids with histone deacetylase inhibitors increased radiation sensitivity; this increase was accompanied by the suppression of Wnt signal‐related gene expression. Accordingly, Wnt inhibitors increased organoid radiosensitivity. These results suggested that only a small subset of, but not all, cancer cells with high Wnt activity at the time of irradiation could give rise to foci formation. In conclusion, we established a radiation sensitivity assay using CRC organoids that could provide a novel platform for evaluating the effects of radiosensitizers on differentiated adenocarcinomas in CRC.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
There are two types of circulating proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9), mature and furin-cleaved. Most types of lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)], an independent risk factor of cardiovascular events, bound to mature PCSK9.
Purpose
This study examined the effects of monoclonal anti-PCSK9 antibody on plasma PCSK9 and Lp(a) levels in acute myocardial infarction (MI).
Methods
Acute MI patients (n=36) were randomly divided into evolocumab (140 mg; n=17) and non-evolocumab (n=19) groups. Changes in plasma PCSK9 and Lp(a) levels were monitored before and 1, 3, 5, 10, and 20 days after evolocumab administration.
Results
In the non-evolocumab group, plasma levels of mature PCSK9, furin-cleaved PCSK9, and Lp(a) (236.4±57.3 ng/mL, 22.4±5.8 ng/mL, and 19.2. ± 16.5 mg/dL, respectively) significantly increased by day 3 (408.8±77.1 ng/mL, P<0.001; 47.2±15.7 ng/mL, P<0.001; and 39.7±21.3 mg/dL, P<0.005, respectively) and returned to the baseline by day 10 or 20. In the evolocumab group, mature PCSK9 significantly increased by >1000 ng/mL with a simultaneous decline of furin-cleaved PCSK9 below the measurement sensitivity level after day 3. The incremental area under the curve for plasma Lp(a) levels was significantly smaller in the evolocumab group compared with the non-evolocumab group (P=0.038).
Conclusion
Mature and furin-cleaved PCSK9 are transiently upregulated after MI onset. Evolocumab significantly increases mature PCSK9 and decreases furin-cleaved PCSK9 and might inhibit transient increase of plasma Lp(a) in acute MI.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Inflammatory status pre-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and post-PCI has been reported not only associated with poor prognosis, but also to impair renal function. Statins reduce cardiovascular events by lowering lipids and have anti-inflammatory impacts, but residual inflammatory risk (RIR) exists. It remains unclear that the synergistic effect of RIR and chronic kidney disease (CKD) on long-term clinical outcome in stable coronary artery disease (CAD) patients undergoing PCI in statin era.
Aim
The aim of this study was to investigate the long-term combined impact of RIR evaluating hs-CRP at follow-up and CKD among stable CAD patients undergoing PCI in statin era.
Methods
This is a single-center, observational, retrospective cohort study assessing consecutive 2,984 stable CAD patients who underwent first PCI from 2000 to 2016. We analyzed 2,087 patients for whom hs-CRP at follow-up (6–9 months later) was available. High residual inflammatory risk was defined as hs-CRP >0.6 mg/L according to the median value at follow up. Patients were assigned to four groups as Group1 (high RIR and CKD), Group2 (low RIR and CKD), Group3 (high RIR and non-CKD) or Group4 (low RIR and non-CKD). We evaluated all-cause death and major adverse cardiac events (MACE), defined as a composite of cardiovascular (CV) death, non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI) and non-fatal stroke.
Results
Of patients (83% men; mean age 67 years), there were 299 (14.3%) patients in group 1, 201 (9.6%) patients in group 2, 754 (36.1%) patients in group 3, and 833 (39.9%) patients in group 4. The median follow-up period was 5.2 years (IQR, 1.9–9.9 years). In total, 189 (frequency, 16.1%) cases of all-cause death and 128 (11.2%) MACE were identified during follow-up, including 53 (4.6%) CV deaths, 27 (2.4%) MIs and 52 (4.8%) strokes. The rate of all-cause death and MACE in group 1 was significantly higher than other groups (p<0.001, respectively). There was a stepwise increase in the incidence rates of all-cause death and MACE. After adjustment for important covariates, the presence of high RIR and/or CKD were independently associated with higher incidence of MACE and higher all-cause mortality. (shown on figure).
Conclusion
The presence of both high RIR and CKD conferred a synergistic adverse effect on the risk for long-term adverse cardiac events in patients undergoing PCI.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Chronotropic incompetence (CI) is sometimes observed during exercise training of cardiac rehabilitation in patients with cardiac surgery, however, little is known concerning the differences between patients with mitral valve (MV) and aortic valve (AV) surgery.
Purpose
Because the possibility exists that cardiac sympathetic nerves might be impaired by left atrium incision, we hypothesized that the incidence of CI was higher in patients with MV surgery (Mitral Valve Replacement and Mitral Valvuloplasty) as compared with patients with AV surgery (Aortic Valve Replacement). And if so, which factor determines the exercise capacity of patients after MV surgery. We thus aimed this study to elucidate the hypothesis with cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPX).
Methods
We performed CPX by ramp loading with ergometer exercise in total 61 patients who had undergone elective cardiac valve operation (25 patients with MV surgery, age 59.2±9.9 years; 36 patients with AV surgery, age 64.6±12.3 years). We analyzed chronotropic response index (CRI), peak oxygen uptake (peak VO2/W), anaerobic threshold (AT), and peak oxygen pulse (peak VO2/HR) with CPX, and blood hemoglobin concentration (Hb).
Results
The value of CRI was significantly decreased in the patients with MV surgery compared with those with AV surgery (MV; 0.19±0.10 vs. AV; 0.41±0.17, p<0.001). Peak VO2, peak VO2/HR and Hb were not significantly different between patients with MV and those with AV surgery. Patients with MV surgery showed correlations between peak VO2 and Hb (r=0.45, p<0.05), AT and Hb (r=0.52, p<0.01), and a strong correlation between peak VO2 and peak VO2/HR (r=0.63, p<0.001), but not in those with AV surgery.
Conclusions
The present study demonstrated that higher incidence of CI was shown in patients with MV surgery as compared with those with AV surgery. The exercise capacity of patients with MV surgery was determined by peak VO2/HR and Hb. These results suggest that 1) left atrium incision impairs cardiac sympathetic nerves and causes CI, 2) peak VO2/HR which is consisted of arterio-venous oxygen difference and Hb is critical indicator for exercise capacity in patients with MV surgery with CI.

Abstract
Neuroendocrine carcinoma of small cell type (SCNEC) is a rare pathological subtype in cervical cancer, which has a worse prognosis than other histological cell types. Due to its low incidence and the lack of experimental platforms, the molecular characteristics of SCNEC in the cervix remain largely unknown. Using the cancer tissue-originated spheroid (CTOS) method-an ex vivo 3D culture system that preserves the differentiation status of the original tumors-we established a panel of CTOS lines of SCNEC. We demonstrated that xenograft tumors and CTOSs, respectively, exhibited substantial intra-tumor and intra-CTOS variation in the expression levels of chromogranin A (CHGA), a neuroendocrine tumor marker. Since hypoxia affects differentiation in various tumors and in stem cells, we also investigated how hypoxia affected neuroendocrine differentiation of SCNEC of the uterine cervix. In the CTOS line cerv21, hypoxia suppressed expression of the neuroendocrine markers CHGA and synaptophysin (SYP). Flow cytometry analysis using CD99 (a membrane protein marker of SCNEC) revealed decreased CD99 expression in a subset of cells under hypoxic conditions. These expression changes were attenuated by HIF-1α knockdown, and by a Notch inhibitor, suggesting that these molecules played a role in the regulation of neuroendocrine differentiation. The examined SCNEC markers were suppressed under hypoxia in multiple CTOS lines. Overall, our present results indicated that neuroendocrine differentiation in SCNEC of the uterus is a variable phenotype, and that hypoxia may be one of the factors regulating the differentiation status.

Abstract
Cancer cells are exposed to various stresses in vivo, including hydrodynamic stress (HDS). HDS on cancer cells in the blood stream can influence the metastatic potential. Recent studies revealed that circulating tumor cell clusters are more responsible for metastasis than circulating single cells. Nevertheless, most studies on HDS are based on single cells prepared from established cancer cell lines. Here, we used cancer tissue-originated spheroids (CTOS) as a patient-derived, 3D organoid model to investigate the effect of HDS on cancer cell clusters. We found that HDS induced the growth of cancer cell clusters in a population of colorectal CTOSs. Microarray analyses revealed that the multifunctional protein, Annexin 1 (ANXA1), was upregulated upon HDS exposure. Chemically-induced membrane damage also triggered the expression of ANXA1. A knockdown of ANXA1 revealed that ANXA1 regulated HDS-stimulated growth in colorectal CTOSs. Mechanistically, activating the PI3K/AKT pathway downstream of ANXA1 contributed to the phenotype. These findings demonstrate that HDS induces the growth of cancer cell clusters via ANXA1/PI3K/AKT axis, which helps to elucidate the pro-metastatic feature of circulating cancer cell clusters.

Abstract
Abstract
Small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (SCNEC) of uterine cervix is a rare tumor accounting for approximately 1-2% of uterine cervical tumors. SCNEC of uterine cervix is highly invasive and has an extremely poorer prognosis than other histologic types for which no standard treatment is established. To establish a new management strategy against SCNEC of uterine cervix, we developed a drug sensitivity assay based on a 3D primary culture system. We previously developed the cancer tissue-originated spheroid (CTOS) method, a primary culture method from patients’ tumors. To date, we established a panel of 12 SCNEC CTOS lines with the success rate of 100%. For each line, multiple CTOSs were placed in one well of a 96 well plate and dose response analysis was performed for seven anticancer drugs; paclitaxel, carboplatin, irinotecan, SN-38, cisplatin, etoposide and gemcitabine. After 7 days of culture, the CTOSs viability was evaluated by measuring intracellular ATP levels, corrected by the size of CTOS at day0. All drugs had substantial variations in sensitivity among the lines. Cerv54 was far more sensitive to irinotecan than other lines while was similarly sensitive to SN-38. We revealed that cancer cells of cerv54 had high levels of carboxylesterase(CES)1 expression, which converts irinotecan to SN38. Since cerv54 with CES1 knockdown by pGFP-C-shCES1 lentivirus had lower sensitivity than sh-scramble, CES1 expression is related to the irinotecan sensitivity in cerv54. CES1 expression in cancer cells may be useful for predicting the effect of irinotecan based chemotherapy. In addition, this study indicates that sensitivity test using CTOS might be applicable to precision medicine by selecting sensitive drugs for each patient.

Abstract
The idea of tumor dormancy originated from clinical findings that recurrence of cancer occurs several years or even several decades after surgical resection of the primary tumor. Tumor mass dormancy was proposed as a model, where there is equal balance between increases in the number of cancer cells by proliferation and decreases as a result of cell death. Tumor mass dormancy includes angiogenic dormancy and immune‐mediated dormancy. Another emerging type of tumor dormancy is cellular dormancy in which cancer cells are in a quiescent state. Cellular dormancy is induced by cues such as the extracellular matrix environment, metastatic niches, a hypoxic microenvironment, and endoplasmic reticulum stress. Even the oncogenic pathways, on which active cancer cells depend for survival and growth, are suppressed in the dormant state. As tumor dormancy is one of the mechanisms of resistance against various cancer therapies, targeting dormant cancer cells should be considered for future treatment strategies.

Abstract
Patient‐derived cancer organoid culture is an important live material that reflects clinical heterogeneity. However, the limited amount of organoids available for each case as well as the considerable amount of time and cost to expand in vitro makes it impractical to perform high‐throughput drug screening using organoid cultures from multiple patients. Here, we report an advanced system for the high‐throughput screening of 2427 drugs using the cancer tissue‐originated spheroid (CTOS) method. In this system, we apply the CTOS method in an ex vivo platform from xenograft tumors, using machines to handle CTOS and reagents, and testing a CTOS reference panel of multiple CTOS lines for the hit drugs. CTOS passages in xenograft tumors resulted in minimal changes of morphological and genomic status, and xenograft tumor generation efficiently expanded the number of CTOS to evaluate multiple drugs. Our panel of colorectal cancer CTOS lines exhibited diverse sensitivities to the hit compounds, demonstrating the usefulness of this system for investigating highly heterogeneous disease.

Abstract
Pembrolizumab, a humanized monoclonal immunoglobulin (Ig) G4 antibody that is directed against the human cell surface receptor PD-1, is a PD-1 pathway inhibitor that has been approved to treat various malignant diseases, including advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). PD-1 is the major inhibitory receptor regulating T-cell exhaustion, and T-cells with high PD-1 expression lose their ability to eliminate cancer. PD-1 pathway blockade by pembrolizumab reinvigorates exhausted T-cells and restores their antitumor immune responses. However, reinvigorated T-cells also evoke immune-related adverse effects (irAEs), which stem from the restored activity. Currently, the pathogenic mechanisms of irAEs have not been sufficiently determined. We experienced a patient with NSCLC with high PD-L1 expression and cervical lymph node metastases, who demonstrated a good clinical response to first line pembrolizumab but suffered from a severe cutaneous adverse event. Both of his skin lesions and cervical metastases showed extensive CD8(+) PD-1(+) T-cell infiltration in immunofluorescence analysis. This finding suggests a possible contribution of reinvigorated CD8(+) PD-1(+) T-cells in anti-PD-1 therapy-induced skin rash. Intriguingly, CD8(+) T-cells in the skin rash showed higher Ki-67 expression, a proliferation marker, than those in the cervical lymph node lesion. This is the first report of an association between proliferative CD8(+) PD-1(+) T-cells and irAEs.

Abstract
Individual and small clusters of cancer cells may detach from the edges of a main tumor and invade vessels, which can act as the origin of metastasis; however, the mechanism for this phenomenon is not well understood. Using cancer tissue-originated spheroids, we studied whether disturbing the 3D architecture of cancer spheroids can provoke the reformation process and progression of malignancy. We developed a mechanical disruption method to achieve homogenous disruption of the spheroids while maintaining cell–cell contact. After the disruption, 9 spheroid lines from 9 patient samples reformed within a few hours, and 3 of the 9 lines exhibited accelerated spheroid growth. Marker expression, spheroid forming capacity, and tumorigenesis indicated that stemness increased after spheroid disruption. In addition, the spheroid forming capacity increased in 6 of 11 spheroid lines. The disruption signature determined by gene expression profiling supported the incidence of remodeling and predicted the prognosis of patients with colorectal cancer. Furthermore, WNT and HER3 signaling were increased in the reformed spheroids, and suppression of these signaling pathways attenuated the increased proliferation and stemness after the disruption. Overall, the disruption and subsequent reformation of cancer spheroids promoted malignancy-related phenotypes through the activation of the WNT and ERBB pathways.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Low serum albumin level is reportedly associated with worse clinical outcomes in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, associations between decreased serum albumin level and outcomes in non-CKD patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) remain unclear. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of serum albumin concentrations in stable CAD patients with preserved renal function. METHODS AND RESULTS We studied 1316 patients with CAD and preserved renal function (estimated glomerular filtration rate ≥60 mL/min/1.73 m2) who underwent their first PCI between 2000 and 2011 and had data available for pre-procedural serum albumin. Patients were assigned to quartiles based on pre-procedural albumin concentrations. The incidence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE), including all-cause death and non-fatal myocardial infarction, was evaluated. Mean albumin concentration was 4.1 ± 0.4 g/dL. During the median follow-up of 7.5 years, 181 events occurred (13.8%). Kaplan-Meier curves revealed that patients with decreased serum albumin concentrations showed a higher event rate for MACE (log-rank, p < 0.0001). Using the highest tertiles (>4.3 g/dL) as reference, adjusted hazard ratios were 1.97 (95% CI, 1.12-3.55), 1.77 (95% CI, 0.99-3.25), and 1.19 (95% CI, 0.68-2.15) for serum albumin concentrations of <3.9, 3.9-4.0, and 4.1-4.3 g/dL, respectively. Decreased serum albumin concentration was associated with MACE even after adjusting for other independent variables (HR, 2.21 per 1-g/dL decrease; 95% CI, 1.37-3.56, p = 0.001). CONCLUSION Decreased serum albumin concentration independently predicted worse long-term prognosis in non-CKD patients after PCI. Pre-procedural serum albumin concentration could offer a useful predictor for patients with CAD and preserved renal function.

Abstract
Increasingly, it has been recognized that studying cancer samples from individual patients is important for the development of effective therapeutic strategies and in endeavors to overcome therapy resistance. Primary cultures of cancer cells acutely dissected from individual patients can provide a platform that enables the study and characterization of individual tumors. To that end, we have developed a method for preparing cancer cells in the form of multi-cellular spheroids. The cells can be derived from patient tumors (primary cells), from patient-derived xenografts, or from genetically- or chemically induced animal tumors. This method of culturing spheroids composed of cells derived from cancer tissues can be applied to various types of cancer, including urothelial cancer. The method is based on the principle of retaining cell-cell contact throughout cancer cell preparation and culturing. The first step is a partial digestion of the tumor specimen into small fragments; these fragments spontaneously form spheroidal shapes within several hours. The spheroid is referred to as a cancer tissue-originated spheroid (CTOS). The advantage of the CTOS method is that it allows one to prepare pure cancer cells at high yield. CTOSs can be stably cultured in serum-free conditions. The CTOS method can be applied to drug sensitivity assays, drug screening, and analyses of intracellular signaling. Moreover, the CTOS method provides a platform for studying the nature of cancer cell clusters.

Abstract
Maxillectomy for oral tumours often results in debilitating oral hypofunction, which markedly decreases quality of life. Dysphagia, in particular, is one of the most serious problems following maxillectomy. This study used swallowing sounds as a simple evaluation method to evaluate swallowing ability in maxillectomy patients with and without their obturator prosthesis placed. Twenty-seven maxillectomy patients (15 men, 12 women; mean age 66.0 ± 12.1 years) and 30 healthy controls (14 men, 16 women; mean age 44.9 ± 21.3 years) were recruited for this study. Participants were asked to swallow 4 mL of water, and swallowing sounds were recorded using a throat microphone. Duration of the acoustic signal and duration of peak intensity (DPI) were measured. Duration of peak intensity was significantly longer in maxillectomy patients without their obturator than with it (P < .05) and was significantly longer in maxillectomy patients without their obturator than in healthy controls (P < .025 after Bonferroni correction). With the obturator placed, DPI was significantly longer in maxillectomy patients who had undergone soft palate resection than in those who had not (P < .05). These results suggest swallowing ability in maxillectomy patients could be improved by wearing an obturator prosthesis, particularly during the oral stage. However, it is difficult to improve the oral stage of swallowing in patients who have undergone soft palate resection even with obturator placement.

Abstract
SUMMARY
The present study determined the mechanical properties and volumetric polymerization shrinkage of different categories of resin composite. Three high viscosity bulk fill resin composites were tested: Tetric EvoCeram Bulk Fill (TB, Ivoclar Vivadent), Filtek Bulk Fill posterior restorative (FB, 3M ESPE), and Sonic Fill (SF, Kerr Corp). Two low-shrinkage resin composites, Kalore (KL, GC Corp) and Filtek LS Posterior (LS, 3M ESPE), were used. Three conventional resin composites, Herculite Ultra (HU, Kerr Corp), Estelite ∑ Quick (EQ, Tokuyama Dental), and Filtek Supreme Ultra (SU, 3M ESPE), were used as comparison materials. Following ISO Specification 4049, six specimens for each resin composite were used to determine flexural strength, elastic modulus, and resilience. Volumetric polymerization shrinkage was determined using a water-filled dilatometer. Data were evaluated using analysis of variance followed by Tukey's honestly significant difference test (α=0.05). The flexural strength of the resin composites ranged from 115.4 to 148.1 MPa, the elastic modulus ranged from 5.6 to 13.4 GPa, and the resilience ranged from 0.70 to 1.0 MJ/m3. There were significant differences in flexural properties between the materials but no clear outliers. Volumetric changes as a function of time over a duration of 180 seconds depended on the type of resin composite. However, for all the resin composites, apart from LS, volumetric shrinkage began soon after the start of light irradiation, and a rapid decrease in volume during light irradiation followed by a slower decrease was observed. The low shrinkage resin composites KL and LS showed significantly lower volumetric shrinkage than the other tested materials at the measuring point of 180 seconds. In contrast, the three bulk fill resin composites showed higher volumetric change than the other resin composites. The findings from this study provide clinicians with valuable information regarding the mechanical properties and polymerization kinetics of these categories of current resin composite.

Abstract
Shear-induced multilamellar vesicle (MLV) formation has been studied by coupling the small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) technique with neutron spin echo (NSE) spectroscopy. A 10% mass fraction of the nonionic surfactant pentaethylene glycol dodecyl ether (C12E5) in water was selected as a model system for studying weak inter-lamellar interactions. These interactions are controlled either by adding an anionic surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulfate, or an antagonistic salt, rubidium tetraphenylborate. Increasing the charge density in the bilayer induces an enhanced ordering of the lamellar structure. The charge density dependence of the membrane bending modulus was determined by NSE and showed an increasing trend with charge. This behavior is well explained by a classical theoretical model. By considering the Caillé parameters calculated from the SANS data, the layer compressibility modulus B¯ is estimated and the nature of the dominant inter-lamellar interaction is determined. Shear flow induces MLV formation around a shear rate of 10 s-1, when a small amount of charge is included in the membrane. The flow-induced layer undulations are in-phase between neighboring layers when the inter-lamellar interaction is sufficiently strong. Under these conditions, MLV formation can occur without significantly changing the inter-lamellar spacing. On the other hand, in the case of weak inter-lamellar interactions, the flow-induced undulations are not in-phase, and greater steric repulsion leads to an increase in the inter-lamellar spacing with shear rate. In this case, MLV formation occurs as the amplitude of the undulations gets larger and the steric interaction leads to in-phase undulations between neighboring membranes.

Abstract
With the aim of reconsidering ICH S7B and E14 guidelines, a new in vitro assay system has been subjected to worldwide validation to establish a better prediction platform for potential drug-induced QT prolongation and the consequent TdP in clinical practice. In Japan, CSAHi HEART team has been working on hiPS-CMs in the MEA (hiPS-CMs/MEA) under a standardized protocol and found no inter-facility or lot-to-lot variability for proarrhythmic risk assessment of 7 reference compounds. In this study, we evaluated the responses of hiPS-CMs/MEA to another 31 reference compounds associated with cardiac toxicities, and gene expression to further clarify the electrophysiological characteristics over the course of culture period. The hiPS-CMs/MEA assay accurately predicted reference compounds potential for arrhythmogenesis, and yielded results that showed better correlation with target concentrations of QTc prolongation or TdP in clinical setting than other current in vitro and in vivo assays. Gene expression analyses revealed consistent profiles in all samples within and among the testing facilities. This report would provide CiPA with informative guidance on the use of the hiPS-CMs/MEA assay, and promote the establishment of a new paradigm, beyond conventional in vitro and in vivo assays for cardiac safety assessment of new drugs.

Abstract
Adenocarcinoma (ADC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SqCC) are the two predominant subtypes of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and are distinct in their histological, molecular and clinical presentation. However, metabolic signatures specific to individual NSCLC subtypes remain unknown. Here, we perform an integrative analysis of human NSCLC tumour samples, patient-derived xenografts, murine model of NSCLC, NSCLC cell lines and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and reveal a markedly elevated expression of the GLUT1 glucose transporter in lung SqCC, which augments glucose uptake and glycolytic flux. We show that a critical reliance on glycolysis renders lung SqCC vulnerable to glycolytic inhibition, while lung ADC exhibits significant glucose independence. Clinically, elevated GLUT1-mediated glycolysis in lung SqCC strongly correlates with high 18F-FDG uptake and poor prognosis. This previously undescribed metabolic heterogeneity of NSCLC subtypes implicates significant potential for the development of diagnostic, prognostic and targeted therapeutic strategies for lung SqCC, a cancer for which existing therapeutic options are clinically insufficient. Adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma are distinct subtypes of non-small cell lung cancer. Here, the authors show that increased glycolytic flux, via increased glucose transporter Glut1 expression, is a core metabolic feature of squamous cell carcinoma that renders it sensitive to glycolysis inhibition.

Abstract
1. The skulls and postcranial skeletons of the red jungle fowl (Gallus gallus) were compared osteometrically between the populations from North and South Vietnam, North and Central Laos and Southeast Bangladesh. The populations include the three subspecies of G. g. spadiceus, G. g. gallus and G. g. murghi and were sampled to reveal the geographical morphological variations among populations in G. gallus. 2. The morphometric characteristics of subspecies murghi could be clearly distinguished from those of the other subspecies using a canonical discriminant analysis. However, the size and shape of the skull of the gallus population from South Vietnam were not statistically different from that of the subspecies spadiceus from North Laos. The canonical discriminant scores also clearly indicated that there were morphological similarities in the skulls of the populations from North Laos and South Vietnam. 3. From the results, therefore, it is concluded that red jungle fowls do not exhibit high levels of osteometric variation between geographical localities at least within the Indochinese Peninsula. 4. This contrasts with previous studies which have described these subspecies as having various external morphological differences and have argued that zoogeographical barriers exist between the north and south areas of the Indochinese Peninsula.

Abstract
In clinic, cetuximab, an anti-EGFR antibody, improves treatment outcomes in colorectal cancer (CRC). KRAS-mutant CRC is generally resistant to cetuximab, although difference of the sensitivity among KRAS-mutants has not been studied in detail. We previously developed the cancer tissue-originated spheroid (CTOS) method, a primary culture method for cancer cells. We applied CTOS method to investigate whether ex vivo cetuximab sensitivity assays reflect the difference in sensitivity in the xenografts. Firstly, in vivo cetuximab treatment was performed with xenografts derived from 10 CTOS lines (3 KRAS-wildtype and 7 KRAS mutants). All two CTOS lines which exhibited tumor regression were KRAS-wildtype, meanwhile all KRAS-mutant CTOS lines grew more than the initial size: were resistant to cetuximab according to the clinical evaluation criteria, although the sensitivity was quite diverse. We divided KRAS-mutants into two groups; partially responsive group in which cetuximab had a substantial growth inhibitory effect, and resistant group which exhibited no effect. The ex vivo signaling assay with EGF stimulation revealed that the partially responsive group, but not the resistant group, exhibited suppressed ERK phosphorylation ex vivo. Furthermore, two lines from the partially responsive group, but none of the lines in the resistant group, exhibited a combinatory effect of cetuximab and trametinib, a MEK inhibitor, ex vivo and in vivo. Taken together, the results indicate that ex vivo signaling assay reflects the difference in sensitivity in vivo and stratifies KRAS mutant CTOS lines by sensitivity. Therefore, coupling the in vivo and ex vivo assays with CTOS can be a useful platform for understanding the mechanism of diversity in drug sensitivity.

Abstract
Essentials The role of C-type lectin-like receptor-2 (CLEC-2) in cancer progression is unclear. CLEC-2-depleted mouse model is generated by using a rat anti-mouse CLEC-2 monoclonal antibody. CLEC-2 depletion inhibits hematogenous tumor metastasis of podoplanin-expressing B16F10 cells. CLEC-2 depletion prolongs cancer survival by suppressing thrombosis and inflammation. SUMMARY Background C-type lectin-like receptor 2 (CLEC-2) is a platelet activation receptor of sialoglycoprotein podoplanin, which is expressed on the surface of certain types of tumor cells. CLEC-2-podoplanin interactions facilitate hematogenous tumor metastasis. However, direct evidence of the role of CLEC-2 in hematogenous metastasis and cancer progression is lacking. Objective and methods We generated immunological CLEC-2-depleted mice by using anti-mouse CLEC-2 monoclonal antibody 2A2B10 and investigated whether CLEC-2 promoted hematogenous tumor metastasis and tumor growth and exacerbated the prognosis of mice bearing podoplanin-expressing B16F10 melanoma cells. Results Our results showed that hematogenous metastasis was significantly inhibited in CLEC-2-depleted mice. B16F10 cells co-cultured with wild-type platelets, but not with CLEC-2-deficient platelets, showed increased proliferation. However, B16F10 cell proliferation was not inhibited in CLEC-2-depleted mice. Histological analysis showed that thrombus formation in tumor vessels was significantly inhibited and functional vessel density was significantly increased in CLEC-2-depleted mice. These data suggest that CLEC-2 deficiency may inhibit thrombus formation in tumor vessels and increase the density of functional vessels, thus improving oxygen and nutrient supply to tumors, indirectly promoting tumor proliferation. Furthermore, the overall survival of CLEC-2-depleted mice was significantly prolonged, which may be due to the suppression of thrombus formation in the lungs and subsequent inhibition of systemic inflammation and cachexia. Conclusions These data provide a rationale for the targeted inhibition of CLEC-2 as a new strategy for preventing hematogenous tumor metastasis and for inhibiting cancer-related thromboembolism.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The incidence of wall enhancement of cerebral aneurysms on vessel wall MR imaging has been described as higher in ruptured intracranial aneurysms than in unruptured intracranial aneurysms, but the difference in the degree of enhancement between ruptured and unruptured aneurysms is unknown. We compared the degree of enhancement between ruptured and unruptured intracranial aneurysms by using quantitative MR imaging measures. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed quantitative analyses of circumferential enhancement along the wall of cerebral aneurysms in 28 ruptured and 76 unruptured consecutive cases by using vessel wall MR imaging. A 3D-T1-weighted fast spin-echo sequence was obtained before and after contrast media injection, and the wall enhancement index was calculated. We then compared characteristics between ruptured and unruptured aneurysms. RESULTS The wall enhancement index was significantly higher in ruptured than in unruptured aneurysms (1.70 ± 1.06 versus 0.89 ± 0.88, respectively; P = .0001). The receiver operating characteristic curve analysis found that the most reliable cutoff value of the wall enhancement index to differentiate ruptured from unruptured aneurysms was 0.53 (sensitivity, 0.96; specificity, 0.47). The wall enhancement index remained significant in the multivariate logistic regression analysis (P < .0001). CONCLUSIONS Greater circumferential enhancement along the wall of cerebral aneurysms correlates with the ruptured state. A quantitative evaluation of circumferential enhancement by using vessel wall MR imaging could be useful in differentiating ruptured from unruptured intracranial aneurysms.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the enamel bond durability of three universal adhesives in different etching modes through fatigue testing. The three universal adhesives used were Scotchbond Universal, Prime&Bond Elect universal dental adhesive, and All-Bond Universal light-cured dental adhesive. A single-step self-etch adhesive, Clearfil S3 Bond Plus was used as a control. The shear bond strength (SBS) and shear fatigue strength (SFS) to human enamel were evaluated in total-etch mode and self-etch mode. A stainless steel metal ring with an internal diameter of 2.4 mm was used to bond the resin composite to the flat-ground (4000-grit) tooth surfaces for determination of both SBS and SFS. For each enamel surface treatment, 15 specimens were prepared for SBS and 30 specimens for SFS. The staircase method for fatigue testing was then used to determine the SFS of the resin composite bonded to the enamel using 10-Hz frequencies for 50,000 cycles or until failure occurred. Scanning electron microscopy was used to observe representative debonded specimen surfaces and the resin-enamel interfaces. A two-way analysis of variance and the Tukey post hoc test were used for analysis of the SBS data, whereas a modified t-test with Bonferroni correction was used for the SFS data. All adhesives in total-etch mode showed significantly higher SBS and SFS values than those in self-etch mode. Although All-Bond Universal in self-etch mode showed a significantly lower SBS value than the other adhesives, there was no significant difference in SFS values among the adhesives in this mode. All adhesives showed higher SFS:SBS ratios in total-etch mode than in self-etch mode. With regard to the adhesive systems used in this study, universal adhesives showed higher enamel bond strengths in total-etch mode. Although the influence of different etching modes on the enamel-bonding performance of universal adhesives was found to be dependent on the adhesive material, total-etch mode effectively increased the enamel bond strength and durability, as measured by fatigue testing.

Abstract
Dickkopf1 (DKK1) is a secretory protein that antagonizes oncogenic Wnt signaling by binding to the Wnt coreceptor low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 6 (LRP6). DKK1 may also regulate its own signaling to promote cancer cell proliferation, but the mechanism is not understood. Here, we identified cytoskeleton-associated protein 4 (CKAP4) as a DKK1 receptor and evaluated CKAP4-mediated DKK1 signaling in cancer cell proliferation. We determined that DKK1 binds CKAP4 and LRP6 with similar affinity but interacts with these 2 receptors with different cysteine-rich domains. DKK1 induced internalization of CKAP4 in a clathrin-dependent manner, further supporting CKAP4 as a receptor for DKK1. DKK1/CKAP4 signaling activated AKT by forming a complex between the proline-rich domain of CKAP4 and the Src homology 3 domain of PI3K, resulting in proliferation of normal cells and cancer cells. Expression of DKK1 and CKAP4 was frequent in tumor lesions of human pancreatic and lung cancers, and simultaneous expression of both proteins in patient tumors was negatively correlated with prognosis and relapse-free survival. An anti-CKAP4 antibody blocked the binding of DKK1 to CKAP4, suppressed AKT activity in a human cancer cell line, and attenuated xenograft tumor formation in immunodeficient mice. Together, our results suggest that CKAP4 is a potential therapeutic target for cancers that express both DKK1 and CKAP4.

Abstract
Although the dissemination of urothelial cancer cells is supposed to be a major cause of the multicentricity of urothelial tumors, the mechanism of implantation has not been well investigated. Here, we found that cancer cell clusters from the urine of patients with urothelial cancer retain the ability to survive, grow, and adhere. By using cell lines and primary cells collected from multiple patients, we demonstrate that △ Np63α protein in cancer cell clusters was rapidly decreased through proteasomal degradation when clusters were attached to the matrix, leading to downregulation of E-cadherin and upregulation of N-cadherin. Decreased △ Np63α protein level in urothelial cancer cell clusters was involved in the clearance of the urothelium. Our data provide the first evidence that clusters of urothelial cancer cells exhibit dynamic changes in △ Np63α expression during attachment to the matrix, and decreased △ Np63α protein plays a critical role in the interaction between cancer cell clusters and the urothelium. Thus, because △ Np63α might be involved in the process of intraluminal dissemination of urothelial cancer cells, blocking the degradation of △ Np63α could be a target of therapy to prevent the dissemination of urothelial cancer.
