Abstract
Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease caused by measles virus (MV), which typically develops 7 to 10 years after acute measles. During the incubation period, MV establishes a persistent infection in the brain and accumulates mutations that generate neuropathogenic SSPE virus. The neuropathogenicity is closely associated with enhanced propagation mediated by cell-to-cell fusion in the brain, which is principally regulated by hyperfusogenic mutations of the viral F protein. The molecular mechanisms underlying establishment and maintenance of persistent infection are unclear because it is impractical to isolate viruses before the appearance of clinical signs. In this study, we found that the L and P proteins, components of viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp), of an SSPE virus Kobe-1 strain did not promote but rather attenuated viral neuropathogenicity. Viral RdRp activity corresponded to F protein expression; the suppression of RdRp activity in the Kobe-1 strain because of mutations in the L and P proteins led to restriction of the F protein level, thereby reducing cell-to-cell fusion mediated propagation in neuronal cells and decreasing neuropathogenicity. Therefore, the L and P proteins of Kobe-1 did not contribute to progression of SSPE. Three mutations in the L protein strongly suppressed RdRp activity. Recombinant MV harboring the three mutations limited viral spread in neuronal cells while preventing the release of infectious progeny particles; these changes could support persistent infection by enabling host immune escape and preventing host cell lysis. Therefore, the suppression of RdRp activity is necessary for the persistent infection of the parental MV on the way to transform into Kobe-1 SSPE virus. Because mutations in the genome of an SSPE virus reflect the process of SSPE development, mutation analysis will provide insight into the mechanisms underlying persistent infection.

Abstract
Background
Histone gene mutant malignant gliomas - H3K27-altered diffuse midline glioma (DMG) and diffuse hemispheric glioma (DHG) H3G34-mutant - occur in all age groups and can have significant variation in clinical outcomes. Here, we report comprehensive genomic profiling from one of the largest collections of H3F3A-mutant gliomas analyzed to date, identifying subsets defined by recurrently co-mutated genes.
Material and Methods
We identified 390 H3F3A-mutant diffuse gliomas WHO grade 4 (201 females and 189 males) that were profiled in the comprehensive genomic profiling program at Foundation Medicine between 2013-2020. Information from pathology reports, histopathology review, and patient clinical data was assessed
Results
Our cohort comprised 304 (77.9%) H3K27M-mutant DMG WHO grade 4 (156 females and 148 males) and 86 H3G34-mutant DHG (45 females and 41 males) with a median age of 20 years (1- 74 years). H3K27M-mutant DMG distributed equally between pediatric and adult patients, with 52% of the patients older than 20 years, 30% older than 30 years, and 18% older than 40 years at the time of first diagnosis. Clonal FGFR1 hotspot mutations were exclusively detected in K27M-mutant DMG (n = 64/304, 21%; p=0.0001), with a significant association with a higher age at first diagnosis (median 32.5 years), and with a wide tumor distribution across the diencephalon. Additional genes which were significantly more frequently altered in K27M-mutant compared to G34-mutant diffuse gliomas included NF1 (31% vs. 8.1%; p=0.0001) and PIK3CA/PIK3R1 (27.9% vs. 15.1%; p=0.016). Conversely, targetable alterations of the cell-cycle pathway (CDK4/6 amplifications and CDKN2A/B deletions) were enriched in H3G34-mutant DHG (26%) compared to H3K27M-mutant DMG (7%). Potentially targetable PDGFR alterations were present in 32.5% of H3G34-mutant DHG and in 18% of H3K27M-mutant DMG.
Conclusion
These data expand our understanding of the tumor-specific molecular features of pediatric-type high-grade gliomas, identifying cohort sub-structure by recurrent co-mutations, which can inform diagnosis and clinical trial design.

Abstract
Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) is a rare fatal neurodegenerative disease caused by a measles virus (MV) variant, SSPE virus, that accumulates mutations during long-term persistent infection of the central nervous system (CNS). Clusters of mutations identified around the matrix (M) protein in many SSPE viruses suppress productive infectious particle release and accelerate cell–cell fusion, which are features of SSPE viruses. It was reported, however, that these defects of M protein function might not be correlated directly with promotion of neurovirulence, although they might enable establishment of persistent infection. Neuropathogenicity is closely related to the character of the viral fusion (F) protein, and amino acid substitution(s) in the F protein of some SSPE viruses confers F protein hyperfusogenicity, facilitating viral propagation in the CNS through cell–cell fusion and leading to neurovirulence. The F protein of an SSPE virus Kobe-1 strain, however, displayed only moderately enhanced fusion activity and required additional mutations in the M protein for neuropathogenicity in mice. We demonstrated here the mechanism for the M protein of the Kobe-1 strain supporting the fusion activity of the F protein and cooperatively inducing neurovirulence, even though each protein, independently, has no effect on virulence. The occurrence of SSPE has been estimated recently as one in several thousand in children who acquired measles under the age of 5 years, markedly higher than reported previously. The probability of a specific mutation (or mutations) occurring in the F protein conferring hyperfusogenicity and neuropathogenicity might not be sufficient to explain the high frequency of SSPE. The induction of neurovirulence by M protein synergistically with moderately fusogenic F protein could account for the high frequency of SSPE.

Abstract
The fusion (F) protein of measles virus performs refolding from the thermodynamically metastable prefusion form to the highly stable postfusion form via an activated unstable intermediate stage, to induce membrane fusion. Some amino acids involved in the fusion regulation cluster in the heptad repeat B (HR-B) domain of the stalk region, among which substitution of residue 465 by various amino acids revealed that fusion activity correlates well with its side chain length from the Cα (P<0.01) and van der Waals volume (P<0.001), except for Phe, Tyr, Trp, Pro and His carrying ring structures. Directed towards the head region, longer side chains of the non-ring-type 465 residues penetrate more deeply into the head region and may disturb the hydrophobic interaction between the stalk and head regions and cause destabilization of the molecule by lowering the energy barrier for refolding, which conferred the F protein enhanced fusion activity. Contrarily, the side chain of ring-type 465 residues turned away from the head region, resulting in not only no contact with the head region but also extensive coverage of the HR-B surface, which may prevent the dissociation of the HR-B bundle for initiation of membrane fusion and suppress fusion activity. Located in the HR-B domain just at the junction between the head and stalk regions, amino acid 465 is endowed with a possible ability to either destabilize or stabilize the F protein depending on its molecular volume and the direction of the side chain, regulating fusion activity of measles virus F protein.

Abstract
Oncolytic viruses (OV) have broad potential as an adjuvant for the treatment of solid tumors. The present study addresses the feasibility of clinically applicable drugs to enhance the oncolytic potential of the OV Delta24-RGD in glioblastoma. In total, 446 drugs were screened for their viral sensitizing properties in glioblastoma stem-like cells (GSCs) in vitro. Validation was done for 10 drugs to determine synergy based on the Chou Talalay assay. Mechanistic studies were undertaken to assess viability, replication efficacy, viral infection enhancement and cell death pathway induction in a selected panel of drugs. Four viral sensitizers (fluphenazine, indirubin, lofepramine and ranolazine) were demonstrated to reproducibly synergize with Delta24-RGD in multiple assays. After validation, we underscored general applicability by testing candidate drugs in a broader context of a panel of different GSCs, various solid tumor models and multiple OVs. Overall, this study identified four viral sensitizers, which synergize with Delta24-RGD and two other strains of OVs. The viral sensitizers interact with infection, replication and cell death pathways to enhance efficacy of the OV.

Abstract
The fusion (F) protein of measles virus mediates membrane fusion. In this study, we investigated the molecular basis of the cell-cell fusion activity of the F protein. The N465H substitution in the heptad repeat B domain of the stalk region of the F protein eliminates this activity, but an additional mutation in the DIII domain of the head region - N183D, F217L, P219S, I225T or G240R - restores cell-cell fusion. Thermodynamically stabilized by the N465H substitution, the F protein required elevated temperature as high as 40 °C to promote cell-cell fusion, whereas all five DIII mutations caused destabilization of the F protein allowing the highest fusion activity at 30 °C. Stability complementation between the two domains conferred an efficient cell-cell fusion activity on the F protein at 37 °C.

Abstract
Replication-conditional herpes simplex virus (HSV)-based vectors have great potential in the treatment of various types of cancers including brain tumors. HSV mutants lacking the U(L)39 gene and both copies of the gamma(1)34.5 gene (e.g. MGH1, G207) have been demonstrated to possess oncolytic effects as well as potent anticancer vaccination effects without compromising safety. Such mutants thus provide optimal templates to produce novel oncolytic HSV vectors for cancer gene therapy applications. In order to accomplish quick and efficient construction of oncolytic HSV vectors, a novel BAC-based method designated as 'HSVQuik system' was developed. This system sequentially utilizes two different site-specific recombination systems to introduce virtually any transgene cassettes of interest into the deleted U(L)39 locus (Flp-FRT in Escherichia coli) and to release the vector genome sequence from the procaryotic plasmid backbone (Cre-loxP in Vero cells). Taking advantage of the HSVQuik system, we constructed three oncolytic HSV vectors that express mouse IL4, CD40 ligand and 6CK, respectively. In vivo therapeutic experiments using two luciferase-labeled syngeneic mouse brain tumor models revealed that expression of these immunomodulators significantly enhanced antitumor efficacy of oncolytic HSV. The HSVQuik system, together with luciferase-labeled tumor models, should expedite the process of generating and evaluating oncolytic HSV vectors for cancer gene therapy applications.

Abstract
Oncolytic viruses (OVs) are being used as anticancer agents in preclinical and clinical trials. Propagation of OVs inside infected tumors is critical to their efficacy and is mediated by the productive generation of progeny OVs within infected tumor cells. In turn, this progeny can spread the infection to other tumor cells in successive rounds of oncolysis. Previously, we had found that, in rats, cyclophosphamide (CPA) pretreatment increased infection of brain tumors by an intra-arterially administered herpes simplex virus type 1 OV, because it inhibited activation of complement responses, mediated by innate IgM. We also have previously shown that other pharmacologic inhibitors of complement, such as cobra venom factor (CVF), allowed for increased infection. However, in these studies, further inhibition of complement responses by CVF did not result in additional infection of brain tumor cells or in propagation of OV to surrounding tumor cells. In this study, we sought to determine if CPA did lead to increased infection/propagation from initially infected tumor cells. Unlike our results with CVF, we find that CPA administration does result in a time-dependent increase in infection of tumor cells, suggestive of increased propagation, in both syngeneic and athymic models of brain tumors. This increase was due to increased survival of OV within infected tumors and brain surrounding tumors. CPA's effect was not due to a direct enhancement of viral replication in tumor cells, rather was associated with its immunosuppressive effects. RT-PCR analysis revealed that CPA administration resulted in impaired mRNA production by peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of several cytokines (interferons alpha/beta, interferon gamma, TNFalpha, IL-15, and IL-18) with anti-HSV function. These findings suggest that the CPA-mediated facilitation of OV intraneoplastic propagation is associated with a general decrease of antiviral cytokines mRNAs in PBMCs. These findings not only suggest a potential benefit for the addition of transient immunosuppression in clinical applications of oncolytic HSV therapy, but also suggest that innate immunomodulatory pathways may be amenable to manipulation, in order to increase OV propagation and survival within infected tumors.

Abstract
The owl monkey (Aotus trivirgatus) has served as the standard non-human primate model of herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1) infection because it is highly susceptible to HSV-1 encephalitis. Owl monkeys, however, are expensive, difficult to obtain, and difficult to maintain in captivity, thus greatly hampering the efficiency of preclinical gene therapy trials for brain tumors using HSV-1-based vectors. We have therefore compared the susceptibility of the common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus) with the owl monkey in a model of intracerebral inoculation of wildtype HSV-1 F-strain at increasing titers. The common marmosets consistently succumbed earlier to viral encephalitis than the owl monkeys. The histological evaluation of the common marmoset revealed extensive HSV-1 infection with a concomitant yet less marked inflammatory response compared to the owl monkeys. PCR for HSV-1 demonstrated a similar extra-CNS shedding route in both experimental models. Our findings show that the common marmoset is at least as susceptible to intracerebral HSV-infection as the owl monkey and that it can therefore serve as a valid and reliable experimental model for the important preclinical safety tests of HSV-based therapeutic viral vector constructs in the brain.

Abstract
Several clinical trials have or are being performed testing the safety and efficacy of different strains of oncolytic viruses (OV) for malignant cancers. OVs represent either naturally occurring or genetically engineered strains of viruses that exhibit relatively selective replication in tumor cells. Several types of OV have been derived from herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV1). Tumor oncolysis depends on the processes of initial OV infection of tumor, followed by subsequent propagation of OV within the tumor itself. The role of the immune responses in these processes has not been extensively studied. On the contrary, effects of the immune response on the processes of wild-type HSV1 infection and propagation in the central nervous system have been studied and described in detail. The first line of defense against a wild-type HSV1 infection in both naive and immunized individuals is provided by innate humoral (complement, cytokines, chemokines) and cellular (macrophages, neutrophils, NK cells, gammadelta T cells, and interferon-producing cells) responses. These orchestrate the lysis of virions and virus-infected cells as well as provide a link to effective adaptive immunity. The role of innate defenses in curtailing the oncolytic effect of genetically engineered HSV has only recently been studied, but several of the same host responses appear to be operative in limiting anticancer effects by the replicating virus. The importance of this knowledge lies in finding avenues to modulate such initial innate responses, in order to allow for increased oncolysis of tumors while minimizing host toxicity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Homozygous mutant mice expressing a truncated form of myosin-binding protein C (MyBP-C(t/t)) develop severe dilated cardiomyopathy, whereas the heterozygous mutation (MyBP-C(t/+)) causes mild hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Adult male MyBP-C(t/t) and MyBP-C(t/+) mice were evaluated for arrhythmia vulnerability with an in vivo electrophysiology study. METHODS AND RESULTS Surface ECGs were obtained for heart rate, rhythm, and conduction intervals. Atrial, atrioventricular, and ventricular conduction parameters and refractoriness were assessed in 22 MyBP-C(t/t), 10 MyBP-C(t/+), and 17 wild-type MyBP-C(+/+) mice with endocardial pacing and intracardiac electrogram recording. Arrhythmia induction was attempted with standardized programmed stimulation at baseline and with isoproterenol. Heart rate variability and ambient arrhythmia activity were assessed with telemetric ECG monitors. Quantitative histological characterization was performed on serial sections of excised hearts. MyBP-C(t/t) and MyBP-C(t/+) mice have normal ECG intervals and sinus node, atrial, and ventricular conduction and refractoriness. Ventricular tachycardia was reproducibly inducible in 14 of 22 MyBP-C(t/t) mice (64%) during programmed stimulation, compared with 2 of 10 MyBP-C(t/+) mice (20%) and 0 of 17 wild-type controls (P<0.001). Ventricular ectopy was present only in MyBP-C(t/t) mice during ambulatory ECG recordings. There were no differences in heart rate variability parameters. Interstitial fibrosis correlated with genotype but did not predict arrhythmia susceptibility within the MyBP-C(t/t) group. CONCLUSIONS MyBP-C(t/t) mice, despite prominent histopathology and ventricular dysfunction, exhibit normal conduction and refractoriness, yet are vulnerable to ventricular arrhythmias. Somatic influences between genetically identical mutant mice most likely account for variability in arrhythmia susceptibility. A sarcomeric protein gene mutation leads to a dilated cardiomyopathy and ventricular arrhythmia vulnerability phenotype.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) mediates attenuation of the L-type calcium channel and modulates myocyte contractility. Arrhythmogenic afterdepolarizations are seen in vitro in ouabain-treated isolated myocytes from eNOS-deficient mice. The aim of these studies was to characterize the baseline electrophysiologic (EP) phenotype of eNOS-deficient mice and their potential susceptibility to cardiac conduction abnormalities and inducible arrhythmias. METHODS AND RESULTS Surface ECG and in vivo intracardiac EP studies were performed in 27 mice lacking the eNOS gene and 21 wild-type littermate control mice. Baseline studies were performed in 10 eNOS-deficient mice and 10 wild-type controls. Subsequently, 17 eNOS-deficient mice and 11 wild-type controls were pretreated with digoxin, and ECG and EP testing were repeated. Data analysis revealed no significant differences in ECG intervals or cardiac conduction parameters, except sinus cycle length was higher in eNOS-deficient mice than wild-type mice (P < 0.01). After digoxin pretreatment, 7 of 17 eNOS-deficient mice had inducible ventricular tachycardia and 2 others had frequent ventricular premature beats, compared with only 3 of 11 wild-type mice with inducible ventricular tachycardia. In addition, 2 digoxin-treated eNOS-deficient mice and 1 wild-type mouse had inducible nonsustained atrial fibrillation. CONCLUSION Mice with a homozygous targeted disruption of the eNOS gene have slower heart rates but no other distinguishable EP characteristics under basal sedated conditions. Partial inhibition of the Na+/K+ ATPase pump with digoxin administration increases ventricular ectopic activity in eNOS-/- mice, a phenotype analogous to afterdepolarizations seen in vitro in this eNOS-deficient mouse model.

Abstract
A DNA nonbinding mutant of the NK2 class homeoprotein Nkx2.5 dominantly inhibits cardiogenesis in Xenopus embryos, causing a small heart to develop or blocking heart formation entirely. Recently, ten heterozygous CSX/NKX2.5 homeoprotein mutations were identified in patients with congenital atrioventricular (AV) conduction defects. All four missense mutations identified in the human homeodomain led to markedly reduced DNA binding. To examine the effect of a DNA binding-impaired mutant of mouse Csx/Nkx2.5 in the embryonic heart, we generated transgenic mice expressing one such allele, I183P, under the beta-myosin heavy chain promoter. Unexpectedly, transgenic mice were born apparently normal, but the accumulation of Csx/Nkx2.5(I183P) mutant protein in the embryo, neonate, and adult myocardium resulted in progressive and profound cardiac conduction defects and heart failure. P-R prolongation observed at 2 weeks of age rapidly progressed into complete AV block as early as 4 weeks of age. Expression of connexins 40 and 43 was dramatically decreased in the transgenic heart, which may contribute to the conduction defects in the transgenic mice. This transgenic mouse model may be useful in the study of the pathogenesis of cardiac dysfunction associated with CSX/NKX2.5 mutations in humans.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Atrial tachycardia and fibrillation in humans may be partly consequent to vagal stimulation. Induction of fibrillation in the small heart is considered to be impossible due to lack of a critical mass of > 100-200 mm2. Even with the recent progression of the technology of in vivo and in vitro mouse electrophysiological studies, few reports describe atrial tachycardia or fibrillation in mice. The purpose of this study was to attempt provocation of atrial tachyarrhythmia in mice using transvenous pacing following cholinergic stimulation. METHODS AND RESULTS In vivo electrophysiology studies were performed in 14 normal mice. A six-lead ECG was recorded from surface limb leads, and an octapolar electrode catheter was inserted via jugular vein cutdown approach for simultaneous atrial and ventricular endocardial recording and pacing. Atrial tachycardia and fibrillation were inducible in one mouse at baseline electrophysiology study and eleven of fourteen mice after carbamyl choline injection. The mean duration of atrial tachycardia was 126 +/- 384 s. The longest episode lasted 35 min and only terminated after atropine injection. Reinduction of atrial tachycardia after administration of atropine was not possible. CONCLUSION Despite the small mass of the normal mouse atria, sustained atrial tachycardia and fibrillation can be easily and reproducibly inducible with endocardial pacing after cholinergic agonist administration. This finding may contribute to our understanding of the classical theories of arrhythmogenesis and critical substrates necessary for sustaining microreentrant circuits. The techniques of transcatheter parasympathetic agonist-mediated atrial tachycardia induction may be valuable in further murine electrophysiological studies, especially mutant models with potential atrial arrhythmia phenotypes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Genetically altered mice will provide important insights into a wide variety of processes in cardiovascular physiology underlying myocardial infarction (MI). Comprehensive and accurate analyses of cardiac function in murine models require implementation of the most appropriate techniques and experimental protocols. OBJECTIVE In this study we present in vivo, whole-animal techniques and experimental protocols for detailed electrophysiological characterization in a mouse model of myocardial ischemia and infarction. METHODS FVB mice underwent open-chest surgery for ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery or sham-operation. By means of echocardiographic imaging, electrocardiography, intracardiac electrophysiology study, and conscious telemetric ECG recording for heart rate variability (HRV) analysis, we evaluated ischemic and post-infarct cardiovascular morphology and function in mice. RESULTS Coronary artery ligation resulted in antero-apical infarction of the left ventricular wall. MI mice showed decreased cardiac function by echocardiography, infarct-typical pattern on ECG, and increased arrhythmia vulnerability during electrophysiological study. Electrophysiological properties were determined comprehensively, but were not altered significantly as a consequence of MI. Autonomic nervous system function, measured by indices of HRV, did not appear altered in mice during ischemia or infarction. CONCLUSIONS Cardiac conduction, refractoriness, and heart rate variability appear to remain preserved in a murine model of myocardial ischemia and infarction. Myocardial infarction may increase vulnerability to inducible ventricular tachycardia and atrial fibrillation, similarly to EPS findings in humans. These data may be of value as a reference for comparison with mutant murine models necessitating ischemia or scar to elicit an identifiable phenotype. The limitations of directly extrapolating murine cardiac electrophysiology data to conditions in humans need to be considered.

Abstract
We investigated the expression of c-myc and c-sis/PDGF mRNA and protein products in 20 cases of meningiomas of various grades: 10 benign, 5 atypical and 5 anaplastic meningiomas. All cases of atypical and anaplastic meningiomas were positive for c-myc protein and mRNA by immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridisation, respectively, while all 10 benign meningiomas were negative for c-myc immunostaining, with only one benign tumour positive for c-myc mRNA. Expression of PDGF-BB protein and c-sis mRNA were seen in more than 80% of the meningioma cases and was not restricted to the histological grades of meningiomas. Semiquantitative analysis showed that the frequency of c-myc immunopositive cells positively correlated with Ki-67 proliferative indices. Our findings suggest that c-myc, but not c-sis/PDGF, has some concern to the malignancy of meningiomas.

Abstract
Although sarcomere protein gene mutations cause familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (FHC), individuals bearing a mutant cardiac myosin binding protein C (MyBP-C) gene usually have a better prognosis than individuals bearing beta-cardiac myosin heavy chain (MHC) gene mutations. Heterozygous mice bearing a cardiac MHC missense mutation (alphaMHC(403/+) or a cardiac MyBP-C mutation (MyBP-C(t/+)) were constructed as murine FHC models using homologous recombination in embryonic stem cells. We have compared cardiac structure and function of these mouse strains by several methods to further define mechanisms that determine the severity of FHC. Both strains demonstrated progressive left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy; however, by age 30 weeks, alphaMHC(403/+) mice demonstrated considerably more LV hypertrophy than MyBP-C(t/+) mice. In older heterozygous mice, hypertrophy continued to be more severe in the alphaMHC(403/+) mice than in the MyBP-C(t/+) mice. Consistent with this finding, hearts from 50-week-old alphaMHC(403/+) mice demonstrated increased expression of molecular markers of cardiac hypertrophy, but MyBP-C(t/+) hearts did not demonstrate expression of these molecular markers until the mice were >125 weeks old. Electrophysiological evaluation indicated that MyBP-C(t/+) mice are not as likely to have inducible ventricular tachycardia as alphaMHC(403/+) mice. In addition, cardiac function of alphaMHC(403/+) mice is significantly impaired before the development of LV hypertrophy, whereas cardiac function of MyBP-C(t/+) mice is not impaired even after the development of cardiac hypertrophy. Because these murine FHC models mimic their human counterparts, we propose that similar murine models will be useful for predicting the clinical consequences of other FHC-causing mutations. These data suggest that both electrophysiological and cardiac function studies may enable more definitive risk stratification in FHC patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Gap junctions consist of connexin (Cx) proteins that enable electrical coupling of adjacent cells and propagation of action potentials. Cx40 is solely expressed in the atrium and His-Purkinje system. The purpose of this study was to evaluate atrioventricular (AV) conduction in mice with a homozygous deletion of Connexin40 (Cx40(-/-)). METHODS Surface ECGs, intracardiac electrophysiology (EP) studies, and ambulatory telemetry were performed in Cx40(-/-) mutant mice and wild-type (WT) controls. Atrioventricular (AV) conduction parameters and arrhythmia inducibility were evaluated using programmed stimulation. Analysis of heart rate variability was based on results of ambulatory monitoring. RESULTS Significant findings included prolonged measures of AV refractoriness and conduction in connexin40-deficient mice, including longer PR, AH, and HV intervals, increased AV refractory periods, and increased AV Wenckebach and 2:1 block cycle lengths. Connexin40-deficient mice also had an increased incidence of inducible ventricular tachycardia, decreased basal heart rates, and increased heart rate variability. CONCLUSION A homozygous disruption of Cx40 results in prolonged AV conduction parameters due to abnormal electrical coupling in the specialized conduction system, which may also predispose to arrhythmia vulnerability.

Abstract
We developed a technology for heart rate (HR) variability (HRV) analysis in the mouse for characterization of HR dynamics, modulated by vagal and sympathetic activity. The mouse is the principal animal model for studying biological processes. Mouse strains are now available harboring gene mutations providing fundamental insights into molecular mechanisms underlying cardiac electrical diseases. Future progress depends on enhanced understanding of these fundamental mechanisms and the implementation of methods for the functional analysis of mouse cardiovascular physiology. By telemetric techniques, standard time and frequency-domain measures of HRV were computed with and without autonomic blockade, and baroreflex sensitivity testing was performed. HR modulation in the high-frequency component is predominantly mediated by the parasympathetic nervous system, whereas the low-frequency component is under the influence of both the parasympathetic and sympathetic systems. The presented technology and protocol allow for assessment of autonomic regulation of the murine HR. Phenotypic screening for HR regulation in mice will further enhance the value of the mouse as a model of heritable electrophysiological human disease.

Abstract
We examined the distributions of the activation recovery interval (ARI), which is correlated with the local action potential duration (APD), to clarify the origin of the repolarization changes in ASD. The ECGs, QRST isointegral maps and ARI isochronal maps of 21 children with ASD from 3 to 5 years old in age were studied in comparison with 21 age-matched normal children. A conventional and 87 unipolar body surface ECG were simultaneously recorded. The ARIs were determined from the first derivatives of the ECG waveforms. Abnormal ST-T patterns were observed in 11 of 21 ASD, but only in two normal children. The QRST maps of a split positive area pattern were seen in 15 of ASD but none of the normal. In the ARI maps, all the normal children exhibited a short-ARI area on the left and a long-ARI area on the right side of the chest. In 19 of ASD, the ARI distribution revealed a leftward extension of the long-ARI area on the anterior chest, a relative shortening on the right anterior chest, and a localized prolonged ARI on the left anterior chest. The results suggest that right ventricular (RV) volume overload in ASD produces a localized prolongation of the APD on the RV epicardium.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Dual AV nodal physiology is characterized by discontinuous conduction from the atrium to His bundle during programmed atrial extrastimulus testing (A2V2 conduction curves), AV nodal echo beats, and induction of AV nodal reentry tachycardia (AVNRT). The purpose of this study was to characterize in vivo murine maturational AV nodal conduction properties and determine the frequency of dual AV nodal physiology and inducible AVNRT. METHODS AND RESULTS A complete transvenous in vivo electrophysiologic study was performed on 30 immature and 19 mature mice. Assessment of AV nodal conduction included (1) surface ECG and intracardiac atrial and ventricular electrograms; (2) decremental atrial pacing to the point of Wenckebach block and 2:1 conduction; and (3) programmed premature atrial extrastimuli to determine AV effective refractory periods (AVERP), construct A2V2 conduction curves, and attempt arrhythmia induction. The mean Wenckebach block interval was 73 +/- 12 msec, 2:1 block pacing cycle length was 61 +/- 11 msec, and mean AVERP100 was 54 +/- 11 msec. The frequency of dual AV nodal physiology increased with chronologic age, with discontinuous A2V2 conduction curves or AV nodal echo beats in 27% of young mice < 8 weeks and 58% in adult mice (P = 0.03). CONCLUSION These data suggest that mice, similar to humans, have maturation of AV nodal physiology, but they do not have inducible AVNRT. Characterization of murine electrophysiology may be of value in studying genetically modified animals with AV conduction abnormalities. Furthermore, extrapolation to humans may help explain the relative rarity of AVNRT in the younger pediatric population.

Abstract
Intravascular routes of administration can provide a means to target gene- and virus-based therapies to multiple tumor foci located within an organ, such as the brain. However, we demonstrate here that rodent plasma inhibits cell transduction by replication-conditional (oncolytic) herpes simplex viruses (HSV), replication-defective HSV, and adenovirus vectors. In vitro depletion of complement with mild heat treatment or in vivo depletion by treatment of athymic rats with cobra venom factor (CVF) partially reverses this effect. Without CVF, inhibition of cell infection by HSV is observed at plasma dilution as high as 1:32, while plasma from CVF-treated animals displays anti-HSV activity at lower dilutions (1:8). When applied to the therapy of intracerebral brain tumors, in vivo complement depletion facilitates the initial infection (assayed at the 2-day time point) by an intra-arterial replication-conditional HSV of tumor cells, located within three separate and distinct human glioma masses. However, at the 4-day time point, no propagation of HSV from initially infected tumor cells could be observed. Previously, we have shown that the immunosuppressive agent, cyclophosphamide (CPA), facilitates the in vivo propagation of an oncolytic HSV, delivered intravascularly, within infected multiple intracerebral masses, by inhibition of both innate and elicited anti-HSV neutralizing antibody response (K. Ikeda et al., Nat. Med. 5:881-889, 1999). In this study, we thus show that the addition of CPA to the CVF treatment results in a significant increase in viral propagation within infected tumors, measured at the 4-day time period. The concerted action of CVF and CPA significantly increases the life span of athymic rodents harboring three separate and large glioma xenografts after treatment with intravascular, oncolytic HSV. Southern analysis of viral genomes analyzed by PCR reveals the presence of the oncolytic virus in the brains, livers, spleens, kidneys, and intestine of treated animals, although none of these tissues displays evidence of HSV-mediated gene expression. In light of clinical trials of oncolytic HSV for malignant brain tumors, these findings suggest that antitumor efficacy may be limited by the host innate and elicited humoral responses.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION QRS morphology during narrow QRS supraventricular tachycardia in patients without ventricular preexcitation generally is considered the same as that seen during sinus rhythm. This study presents a new ECG observation that the QRS amplitude increased significantly in leads V2 through V5 during tachycardia. METHODS AND RESULTS Using the same ECG machine and the same electrode patches applied to the same electrode positions, 12-lead ECGs during sinus rhythm and narrow QRS tachycardia were analyzed comparatively in 23 patients without ventricular preexcitation. Precordial QRS amplitudes were measured as the vertical distance from the peak of the R to the nadir of the S wave. The amplitudes also were measured during atrial rapid pacing and extrastimulation. Furthermore, ventricular excitation during sinus rhythm and tachycardia was studied using body surface mapping. Body surface distributions of QRS potentials and ventricular activation time (VAT) were displayed as maps. Gross area of QRS (AQRS, equivalent to the QRS amplitude) was compared during sinus rhythm versus tachycardia. During tachycardia, QRS amplitude significantly increased in leads V2 through V5, without any noticeable change in the transitional zone or QRS wave duration. Increase of QRS amplitude also was noted during atrial rapid pacing and extrastimulation. Gross AQRS values during tachycardia significantly increased in the left parasternal area, whereas QRS isopotential and VAT isochronal maps were similar during sinus rhythm and tachycardia, suggesting a minimal role of conduction delay in the increase of QRS amplitude. CONCLUSION QRS wave amplitude significantly increased in leads V2 through V5 during narrow QRS tachycardia compared with QRS waves in sinus rhythm. Increase of QRS amplitude seemed unlikely due to a conduction delay within the ventricular myocardium.

Abstract
The occurrence of multiple tumors in an organ heralds a rapidly fatal course. Although intravascular administration may deliver oncolytic viruses/vectors to each of these tumors, its efficiency is impeded by an antiviral activity present in complement-depleted plasma of rodents and humans. Here, this activity was shown to interact with complement in a calcium-dependent fashion, and antibody neutralization studies indicated preimmune IgM has a contributing role. Short-term exposure to cyclophosphamide (CPA) partially suppressed this activity in rodents and humans. At longer time points, cyclophosphamide also abrogated neutralizing antibody responses. Cyclophosphamide treatment of rats with large single or multiple intracerebral tumors substantially increased viral survival and propagation, leading to neoplastic regression.

Abstract
Meningiomas are generally benign, but some meningiomas show malignancy with invasion and high recurrence rates. We investigated whether alterations in p53 protein may contribute to malignant progression in meningiomas. Immunostaining for p53 protein was performed on paraffin and frozen sections from 61 patients with different grades of meningiomas using monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) DO-1 and pAb240. Immunoblot analysis was performed to quantitate the amount of p53 protein. Mutations in p53 genes were assessed by single-strand conformational polymorphism (SSCP) analysis. MIB-1 immunostaining was used to detect proliferative potentials of meningiomas. We found an overexpression of p53 protein in all of five cases of anaplastic meningiomas by immunohistochemistry using DO-1 mAb. No p53 positive cells were recognized in atypical meningiomas, and several cells were weakly stained in only two of 52 benign meningiomas. p53 staining index and immunoblot analysis indicated increasing amounts of p53 protein associated with subsequent recurrences of anaplastic meningiomas. The MIB-1 staining index was positively correlated with tumour grade and p53 protein overexpression. Immunostaining of frozen sections using the mutant-specific mAb pAb240, as well as mutation gene analysis by SSCP, indicate that the overexpressed p53 protein is not a mutant-but wild-type p53 protein. Four atypical meningiomas did not recur after surgical removal and radiation, while 4 anaplastic meningiomas with overexpressed p53 protein recurred repeatedly at short intervals even after radiation. Our results suggest that accumulation of p53 protein associated with highly proliferative potentials is a common and characteristic feature that may indicate malignant biological behaviour in meningiomas.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Meningeal hemangiopericytomas are more aggressive than typical meningiomas, with a high rate of recurrence and distant metastases. The question of whether a correlation exists between prognosis and histologic features remains controversial. CASE DESCRIPTION We report two cases of recurrent meningeal hemangiopericytomas. Although local growth control of the tumor was obtained by tumor removal and irradiation in a 38-year-old male patient (Case 1) with a recurrent tentorial tumor, the tumor disseminated and metastasized extracranially within a short period after treatment, leading to rapid deterioration. Another 38-year-old female patient (Case 2) with a recurrent orbital tumor had a favorable outcome after tumor removal. The Ki-67 proliferative index using the MIB-1 monoclonal antibody increased as the tumor recurred in Case 1 (2.5%, 7.9%, and 15.7%), but did not change between primary and recurrent tumors of Case 2 (4.2%, 3.1%). Immunostaining for p53 protein in Case 1 was negative at the first resection, and became positive at the second and third resections, whereas in Case 2, it was negative in both the primary and recurrent tumors. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that p53 protein accumulation with a high proliferative potential is a useful marker to estimate malignant progression in meningeal hemangiopericytomas.

Abstract
We report a series of 13 consecutive patients with intracranial abscess treated at our institution since examination by computed tomography (CT) became available. After various treatments, all abscesses healed. CT has broadened the range of treatment options. Manual puncture was performed in most patients. Stereotactic aspiration through a burr hole, medical therapy alone, or complete excision, including the capsule, via craniotomy may be chosen in cases selected by CT analysis. Individualization of treatment in this disease has become increasingly valuable in effecting a cure.

Abstract
Abnormal connective tissues may be a key factor in the development of pelvic supportive disorders. Elastin gene transcripts and elastin synthesis in cultured fibroblasts derived from cardinal ligaments of patients with prolapsus uteri and compared them with those in fibroblasts from age-matched control patients were examined. Elastin mRNA steady-state levels and elastin synthesis were significantly down-regulated in quiescent fibroblasts from prolapsus uteri patients compared with quiescent control fibroblasts. Although transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-beta 1) promoted elastin mRNA and protein levels in fibroblasts from both prolapsus uteri and control patients, the maximum levels of elastin gene transcripts and elastin synthesis in response to exogenous TGF-beta 1 were significantly lower in prolapsus uteri fibroblasts than control fibroblasts. These results suggest that the marked reduction in elastin gene transcripts and elastin production in fibroblasts cultured from elderly women with prolapsus uteri could lead to a paucity of ligament elastic fibres and thus may contribute to the loss of supportive function in uterine connective tissues.

Abstract
It was previously shown that body surface QRST isointegral maps of the anterior chest were abnormal in patients with right ventricular overload and that the abnormalities varied with hemodynamic status. The QRST isointegral maps were first characterized by using a departure index map for normal controls. The study group consisted of 14 patients with pulmonary stenosis (PS), 20 with tetralogy of Fallot, (TOF) and 43 with atrial septal defect (ASD). The QRST isointegral maps of these three groups were compared with the data on 23 to 65 age-matched normal children. In mean departure index maps, the patients with right ventricular pressure overload (PS or TOF) showed an increase in departure index on the anterior midchest, while those of right ventricular volume overload (ASD) showed two maxima on the anterior and left lateral chest, with a trough-like negative area between them. Since the abnormal findings were seen on the anterior chest, we evaluated the diagnostic usefulness of QRST time integral values for precordial leads of the routine electrocardiogram (ECG) in a second part of this study. The precordial QRST time integral values from 9 patients with PS and 11 with TOF (0-2 years of age, mean 1.1 years) and 22 ASD patients (6-15 years, mean 10.1 years) were compared with those of the age-matched control children. The QRST time integral values of the precordial leads in right ventricular pressure overload were significantly increased in the right precordial leads (V1, V2). In right ventricular volume overload, the QRST time integral values of the V1, V2, V4, and V6 leads demonstrated a significant deviation from those of the control group. Therefore, a discrimination formula was constructed by using the values of these leads, and the criteria derived from this formula revealed good (98%) diagnostic accuracy. In detection of right ventricular overload, the QRST time integral values of the precordial lead ECG, if confirmed in a larger data set, may be useful as a simple screening method.

Abstract
Invasive proliferation is a critical biological characteristic of gliomas. We evaluated the activities of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) on proliferation and motility of glioma cells, comparing them with the effects of other growth factors (EGF, bFGF, PDGF-BB, TGF-beta 1). Seven primary culture lines all expressed c-met and HGF mRNA, and secreted HGF. HGF stimulated 3H-thymidine uptake of every glioma cell line (30 to 70% upregulation). Boyden chamber assay and scattering assay revealed that HGF promoted cell motility with chemokinetic and strong chemotactic activities. Concentric circle assay showed that HGF promoted two-dimensional expansion (proliferation and motility) most strongly among the growth factors studied. Further, we analyzed 23 paraffin-embedded sections of surgically resected gliomas (7 grade II, 8 grade III, and 8 grade IV) by immunohistochemistry. Expression of HGF and Met increased with malignant progression of gliomas, suggesting that gliomas stimulated their invasive proliferation by autocrine HGF production. Neurons and vasculature were HGF-positive, and Met-positive glioma cells gathered around them. The data indicate that neurons and vasculature, which are the main tracks of glioma invasion, augment chemotactic invasion and proliferation of gliomas by paracrine HGF secretion. Clearly HGF plays a critical role in invasive proliferation of glioma cells and it is therefore a candidate target of therapeutic intervention.

Abstract
In order to realize a novel vaccination treatment for malignant gliomas using tumor cells genetically modified to express certain cytokines, it is essential to achieve an efficient gene transduction into primary cultured cells. We investigated the feasibility of preparing a glioma vaccine through retrovirus-mediated gene transduction. Glioma cells were cultured primarily from surgically resected tumor tissues of six patients. We obtained more than 1000-fold proliferation of cultures within eight weeks in all six cases. In vitro infection with a recombinant retrovirus GKlacZ carrying an Escherichia coli beta-galactosidase marker gene resulted in over 65% gene transfer to the primary cultured glioma cells. Further enrichment (approximately 90%) of transduced cells was possible by employing repeated infections or using vectors with neo' marker gene. Two cytokine genes, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor and interleukin-4, were introduced into glioma cells by sequential transduction with two single-expression GK vectors. The transduced glioma cells produced high levels of both cytokines. We also evaluated simultaneous introduction of two genes with double-expression GK vectors containing internal ribosomal entry site (IRES) or internal promoter (PGK). Although the cells transduced with double-expression vectors secreted both cytokines, the level of the gene product following IRES or PGK was 10 times lower than that of the upstream gene product. The transduced cells retained cytokine secretion in vitro for 14 days after 100 Gy irradiation. Our data indicate the feasibility of retrovirus-mediated preparation of gene-modified tumor vaccines from clinical glioma materials, which could be useful for potentiating antitumor immunity in glioma patients.

Abstract
The alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) gene is normally expressed in fetal liver and is transcriptionally silent in adult liver but overexpressed in human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Here, we demonstrate that replication defective recombinant adenoviral vectors, containing the human AFP promoter/enhancer, can be used to express the Escherichia coli cytosine deaminase (CD) gene (AdAFPCD) and the beta-galactosidase gene (AdAF-PlacZ) in AFP-producing HCC cell lines. Expression of the CD gene by adenovirus from the AFP promoter/enhancer (AdAFPCD) induced cells sensitive to 5-fluorocytosine (5FC) in the AFP-producing cells but not in the AFP-nonproducing cells. Transduction by an adenoviral vector harboring an ubiquitous strong promoter and CD gene showed enzymatic activity and 5FC killing in all cell lines. When AdAFPlacZ was injected into the s.c. established hepatoma in vivo, expression of the beta-galactosidase gene was confined to AFP-producing HCC xenografts. Moreover, HCC xenografts regressed by transduction with AdAFPCD and subsequently with 5FC treatment in vivo. These findings suggest that utilization of the AFP promoter/enhancer in an adenoviral vector can confer selective expression of a heterologous suicide gene in hepatocellular carcinoma cells in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS An increase of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) expression is noted in about 40% of patients with gastric cancer. Adenovirus-mediated gene therapy using the CEA promoter was investigated as a way to specifically target human CEA-producing gastric tumors. METHODS Recombinant adenovirus vectors carrying a CEA promoter linked to the lacZ gene (AdCEA lacZ) or the cytosine deaminase gene (AdCEA-CD) were constructed. After infection with these vectors, CEA-producing (MKN45 and MKN28) and non-CEA-producing (MKN1) gastric cancer cells were analyzed for transgene expression and sensitivity to 5-fluorocytosine. RESULTS The lacZ gene was expressed selectively in CEA-producing AdCEA-lacZ-infected cells in vitro and in vivo. Transduction of the vector containing the CEA-regulated cytosine deaminase gene (AdCEA-CD) resulted in extraordinary sensitivity of MKN45 and MKN28 cells to 5-fluorocytosine. This effect was not observed in MKN1 cells. Moreover, AdCEA-CD-infected MKN45 cells showed a profound in vitro neighbor cell killing effect in the presence of 5-fluorocytosine. This effect was attributed to the diffusion of 5-fluorouracil, resulting from conversion of 5-fluorocytosine to 5-fluorouracil by the cytosine deaminase-expressing cells. CONCLUSIONS The results of this study suggest that use of a CEA promoter in an adenovirus vector could confer selective expression of the cytosine deaminase gene in CEA-producing gastric cancer cells, rendering the transduced cells susceptible to 5 fluorocytosine. This system may be useful in gene therapy that targets CEA-producing gastric carcinomas.
