Abstract
In animal husbandry, antibiotics are widely used to treat and prevent diseases or to promote growth. The use of antibiotics for domestic animals enables to promote safety of livestock products and enhance productivity. Tetracycline antibiotics (TCs) are one of the primarily used groups of antibiotics for cattle and swine. However, the unintentional spreading of antibiotics from animal waste to the environment may leave out drug residues, promoting resistant strains of bacteria, and will adversely affect the ecosystem and human health. To prevent the spread of veterinary antibiotics in the environment, it is required to treat residual antibiotics in livestock wastewater. In this study, we investigated the electrochemical oxidation of TCs to treat livestock wastewater. The concentrations of TCs in aqueous solutions were reduced from 100 mg/L to less than 0.6 mg/L by 6 h of electrochemical treatment using a Ti/IrO2 anode with Na2SO4 electrolyte. The concentration of oxytetracycline (OTC) in livestock wastewater was also reduced from 100 mg/L to less than 0.7 mg/L by the same treatment. Thus, the electrochemical oxidation using a Ti/IrO2 anode with Na2SO4 electrolyte was found to be effective for degradation of TCs. The results suggest that the electrochemical oxidation method is a promising treatment for TCs in livestock wastewater.

Abstract
Clad polymer buffer rods consisting of a polyetheretherketone (PEEK) core and a cladding made of a heat resistance epoxy aluminum composite are presented. The core has a uniform diameter or a taper shape. Ultrasonic measurement results indicate that the ultrasonic signal strength and signal to noise ratio of these clad rods are better than those of the non-clad PEEK rods for both longitudinal and shear waves because of the improved ultrasonic wave guidance in the core. Comparisons of these rods with those made of polymide and high-density polyethylene are given. Applications of these buffer rods for ultrasonic monitoring of polymer extrusion at temperatures up to 200 degrees C and pressures up to 180 psi are demonstrated. The monitoring results also reveal that within certain operating temperature and pressure range, clad polymer buffer rods show advantages over clad steel buffer rods.

Abstract
Water quality of rivers in Japanese domestic dairy and pig raising regions, as well as the groundwater in these regions, was investigated. Regarding the method of disposing livestock excreta, interview results from the livestock production farmers and the results of water quality analysis were evaluated. It is concluded that the rivers and the groundwater were contaminated due to inappropriate disposal methods of the livestock excreta. The concentrations of ammonium nitrogen and nitrate nitrogen in the rivers and groundwater were high. The sludge from the bottom of the rivers was also investigated and bacteria which are characteristic of excreta of dairy cattle and pigs were detected. The above pollutants were, therefore, considered to be of livestock origin.

Abstract
Amyloid beta-peptide (A beta), the major component of senile plaques, is generated by proteolytic processing from the beta-amyloid precursor protein (beta APP). Mutations within the beta APP gene cause early onset familial AD (FAD) by affecting A beta generation. Interestingly, the much more abundant mutations within the presenilin (PS) genes also result in the abnormal generation of a 42 residue A beta (A beta 42), thus clearly supporting a pivotal role of A beta for the pathology of AD. PS proteins are proteolytically processed into stable 30 kDa N-terminal fragments (NTF) and 20 kDa C-terminal fragments (CTF). Beside the conventional proteolytic pathway. PS proteins can also be cleaved further C-terminal by proteases of the caspase superfamily. PS proteins were localized within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and early Golgi, compartments which we have demonstrated to be involved in A beta 42 generation and intracellular accumulation. Using Caenorhabditis elegans as a simple animal model, we demonstrate that PS proteins are involved in NOTCH signaling FAD causing mutations interfere with the biological function of PS proteins in NOTCH signaling.

Abstract
A full-length cDNA clone encoding a purified augmenter of liver regeneration (ALR) factor prepared from the cytosol of weanling rat livers was isolated. The 1.2-kb cDNA included a 299-bp 5' untranslated region, a 375-bp coding region, and a 550-bp 3' untranslated region. It encoded a protein consisting of 125 amino acids. The molecular weight of ALR calculated from the cDNA was 15,081, which is consistent with the size estimated by SDS/PAGE under reducing conditions. The molecular weight of the purified native ALR estimated by SDS/PAGE under nonreducing conditions was approximately 30,000; thus ALR apparently has a homodimeric structure. The recombinant ALR produced by expression of the cDNA in COS cells was tested in vivo in the canine Eck fistula model and found to have potency equivalent to the purified native ALR. The 125-aa sequence deduced from the rat ALR cDNA shows 50% homology to the amino acid sequence of the gene for oxidative phosphorylation and vegetative growth in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Abstract
The structures of the N-linked oligosaccharides on recombinant human hepatocyte growth factor (rh-HGF) expressed by Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells were studied by two-dimensional sugar mapping. The oligosaccharides released from the glycopeptides by peptide: N-glycosidase F (PNGase F) treatment were tagged with 2-aminopyridine at the reducing ends. The alpha-chain was linked by biantennary, triantennary, and tetraantennary oligosaccharides, but the dominant oligosaccharides linking the beta-chain were biantennary (> 85%). There was no significant difference in oligosaccharide structures between the two glycosylation sites on each chain, that is, Asn263 and Asn371 on the alpha-chain, and Asn535 and Asn622 on the beta-chain. The linkage of sialic acid to the non-reducing terminal galactose was identified as NeuAc alpha(2-3) by 1H-NMR spectrometry. The structures of the N-linked oligosaccharides from rat HGF were also studied. Triantennary oligosaccharides were obtained from the alpha-chain and a biantennary oligosaccharide was obtained from the beta-chain. This result indicates that the alpha-chain is also linked by higher branched oligosaccharides than the beta-chain in rat HGF.

Abstract
The glycosylation site and the structure of O-glycosylated oligosaccharide of recombinant human HGF were investigated. N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) in the alpha chain suggested the presence of O-glycosylated oligosaccharide. Sugar analysis and amino acid sequence analysis of peptide fragments produced by limited degradation revealed that O-glycosylated oligosaccharide linked to Thr445 of the alpha chain. The molecular weight of the oligosaccharide was determined with ion spray mass spectrometry. From these studies, the structure of the O-glycosylated oligosaccharide on the alpha chain of HGF was concluded as [formula: see text].

Abstract
A hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)-like substance that strongly stimulated DNA synthesis of adult rat hepatocytes in primary culture was found to increase markedly in liver of rats treated with carbon tetrachloride (CCl4). This increase of HGF-like activity was time- and dose-dependent, and 36 h after a dose of CCl4 of 0.2 ml per 100 g body weight the activity was about 20-times the normal level. The extent of induction of HGF-like factor correlated well with the extent of liver damage. The HGF-like factor was purified to homogeneity from the liver of CCl4-treated rats by a four-step procedure. The purified HGF-like factor had a molecular weight of 82-85 kDa, as estimated by SDS-PAGE, and was a heterodimer composed of a large subunit of about 69 kDa and a small subunit of 34 kDa linked by disulfide bridges. This factor had similar biological and chemical properties to HGF purified from rat platelets. Moreover, the N-terminal amino acid sequence of its 34-kDa subunit was identical to that of the small subunit of rat HGF. These findings indicate that the HGF-like factor in damaged liver of CCl4-treated rats is HGF and that liver itself can produce HGF when injured.

Abstract
Human leukocyte cDNA library was screened to isolate cDNA clones coding for hepatocyte growth factor using cDNA from human liver as a probe. Nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequences were analyzed for two of four clones obtained. One of them contained an open reading frame coding for a polypeptide chain of 728 amino acid residues like that of cDNA clone derived from human liver. In another clone a spontaneous deletion of 15 base pairs was found within the coding sequence. When expressed transiently using COS-1 cells both clones produced protein with similar biological activity against rat hepatocyte in vitro.

Abstract
We report on three cases of remote cerebellar hemorrhage after supratentorial craniotomy, which had much in common in their computed tomographic, operative, and clinical findings. We speculate that, when the patient is in the supine position, displacement of the cerebellum causes stretching of the superior vermian veins and their tributaries, resulting in tearing of these vessels. Postoperative cerebrospinal fluid overdrainage or massive air reflux into the cranial cavity through the drainage tube may accelerate this process. Meticulous management of the drainage system is necessary to prevent this postoperative complication.

Abstract
An intra-abdominal cyst is a rare complication of ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt. A 19-year-old male was admitted complaining of abdominal pain and distension, dysuria, constipation, headache, and fever. He had undergone a VP shunt for obstructive hydrocephalus caused by a cerebellar astrocytoma 16 years earlier, and had received shunt revision twice, 5 years and 3 months earlier, respectively. Examination on admission revealed neck stiffness, early papilledema, a mass in the lower abdomen, and abdominal muscular guarding with rebound tenderness. Laboratory studies showed leukocytosis of the peripheral blood and pleocytosis of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Abdominal ultrasonograms and computed tomographic scans demonstrated a cystic lesion. Under the diagnosis of meningitis and local peritonitis with an intra-abdominal cyst, we sistemically administered antibiotics and externalized the shunt. However, since the cyst fluid could not be aspirated through the abdominal catheter, it was exchanged with a flexible catheter under fluoroscopic control, according to Seldinger's method. A total of 400 ml of cyst fluid was drained. Staphylococcus epidermidis was detected in both the cyst fluid and the CSF. After meningitis subsided, repositioning of the abdominal catheter into the other side of the abdomen was performed but resulted in shunt malfunction and meningitis due to the same organisms. After meningitis again subsided, the VP shunt was converted to a ventriculoatrial shunt. The clinical course was uneventful thereafter.

Abstract
Ra-reactive factor is a complement-dependent bactericidal factor that reacts specifically with Ra chemotype strains of Salmonella, and is ubiquitous in sera of a wide variety of vertebrates. Here we prepared an antiserum by immunizing rabbit with mouse Ra-reactive factor. This serum neutralized markedly the bactericidal activity of the factor. This action of the antiserum was inhibited by the factor whose bactericidal activity has been inactivated by heating for 30 min at 55 degrees C. Component polypeptides with apparent molecular weights of 28k and 70k in the factor were separated by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. They were also found to inhibit the antiserum activity. This indicates that these polypeptides carry the active site of the factor.

Abstract
Cerebral blood flow (CBF) of 6 patients with poor outcome after subarachnoid hemorrhage is analyzed. Neurological grades of these patients were grade III in 2 and grade IV in 4 patients, and subarachnoid hemorrhage on CT was diffuse and thick in all patients. Cerebral blood flow was continuously measured for 7 to 19 days by the thermal diffusion flow probe with a peltier stack which was left on the cerebral cortex at the surgery for ruptured aneurysm. Moreover, CBF studies by cold xenon CT and 133Xe inhalation methods were also performed in discussing cases. At the same time intracranial pressure was monitored. Cerebral angiography was carried out in all except for 2 patients who died due to severe cerebral vasospasm. The initial CBF value of all patients was 20 to 40 ml/100 g/min (mean value: 27 ml/100 g/min), and these were significantly low compared to normal value (50 ml/100 g/min). Moreover, these CBF was substantially decreased several days after surgery in all patients, and it was marked in 3 patients who died. From these results it was clear that the degree of vasospasm is important to determine the prognosis. One of 3 patients who died had ruptured left posterior cerebral artery aneurysm with occlusion of bilateral internal carotid arteries. In this case further decrease of CBF due to vasospasm was observed in addition to low initial CBF resulting diffuse low flow in both hemispheres although extracranial to intracranial bypass was performed. On the other hand, it was also shown that the intracranial pressure was an important factor to influence the outcomes.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Total three patients with arteriovenous malformation (AVM) in basal ganglia or thalamic region were treated by intraoperative liquid embolizations. These procedures were decided because of repeated hemorrhagic episodes. In the case with AVM in the head of the caudate nucleus which was fed by several anterior perforating arteries originated from anterior cerebral artery (A1 portion) and middle cerebral artery (M1 portion), frontotemporal craniotomy was performed. After the microsurgical dissection of these feeders, one of the feeders lenticulostriate artery, was cannulated with a small-caliber polyethylene catheter, 0.6 mm in outer diameter and 0.3 mm in inner diameter. A small amount of isobutyl 2-cyanoacrylate (IBCA) was injected through the catheter. Same procedure was carried out one month later. Postoperative angiograms revealed about 90% loss of AVM. In two cases with AVM which involved almost entire thalamus, subtemporal craniotomy was done. Feeding vessels which originated from posterior communicating artery and posterior cerebral artery (PCA) were carefully dissected under the operative microscope and one of them was prepared for cannulation with small catheter. When the small amount of IBCA was injected, proximal PCA and internal carotid artery were temporarily occluded. In both cases intraoperative embolization was carried out twice. Postoperative angiograms revealed that the size of AVM was decreased to 20% in one and 40% in the other. Although temporary postoperative deterioration of neurological deficits such as hemiparesis and visual disturbance was slightly noted in all cases, no hemorrhagic episode was experienced for 6 months, 1.5 and 2 years in each after embolization.

Abstract
Two cases of stenosis of the internal carotid artery after blunt craniocervical trauma in children are described. Their neurological symptoms developed a few hours after the injury. A superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery anastomosis was performed in one, and the other was conservatively treated because of the spontaneous resolution of the stenosis. The pathophysiology and treatment of this clinical entity, especially in children, are discussed.

Abstract
The involvement of the posterior circulation in moyamoya disease was studied in 178 patients. Forty-three had several types of disturbance such as visual field defect, decreased visual acuity, episodes of blindness, and scintillating scotomata. Most of these symptoms were attributed to occlusive lesions in the posterior circulation. Visual disturbances were seen more often in patients with a juvenile onset than in cases of adult onset. Superficial temporal artery (STA) to middle cerebral artery (MCA) anastomosis and encephalomyosynangiosis (EMS) improved the cerebral perfusion both in the anterior and posterior circulation by redistribution of blood. In most cases, the visual symptoms subsided or were stabilized after STA-MCA anastomosis and EMS. These surgical procedures did not, however, lead to direct revascularization in cases of ischemia in the visual cortex. In five patients with impending blindness, transplantation of the omentum to the occipital lobe led to improved vision.

Abstract
Cerebral blood flow was measured in 10 patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage using the 133Xe inhalation methods. Regional cerebral blood flow (r-CBF) values were calculated with initial slope index, their values were compared with the blood flow response to the administration of low dose dopamine (DA). CBF values of just after and continuous administration of DA were compared with control values. The measurement of r-CBF was performed immediately after the infusion of 5 micrograms/kg/min DA for 30 min. The focal ischemic lesions decreased, bi-hemispheric mean CBF value (7 cases without A-Com patients) increased by 10.3% significantly (paired T test), affected hemispheric mean CBF value increased by 8.7% significantly and non-affected hemispheric mean CBF value increased by 16.6% significantly. The PaCO2 value didn't change but the mean systemic blood pressure increased by 5.1% significantly. The CBF values of continuous administration of DA for 10 days to 2 weeks were measured. The CBF values increased during the administration of DA. The mean CBF values increased without the steal phenomenon and the mean arterial blood pressure increased slightly after the administration of DA. These phenomena were observed more significantly in non affected side than affected side. We suggest that the administration of DA increase the CBF values in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage due to the stimulation of DA receptor.

Abstract
The effect of hypotension on postischemic cerebral edema was studied by the occlusion-reperfusion model of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) of a cat. The middle cerebral artery was transorbitally occluded for 3 hrs and reperfused for 3 hrs. We chose cats whose CBF decreased lower than 10 ml/100 g/min by the MCA occlusion. We studied 10 cats as a control group and 6 cats as the hypotension group. The mean arterial blood pressure was lowered artificially about 50 mmHg from the previous value using ATP and dipyridamole just before and during the reperfusion. The CBF was measured by the hydrogen clearance method and extradural pressure was recorded. The water content of cerebral hemisphere was measured by the drying-weighing method after sacrifice. In the control group the preocclusive value of CBF was 65.9 +/- 20.6 ml/100g/min and the value just after reperfusion was 35.0 +/- 21.5 ml. The value 3 hours after reperfusion was 8.2 +/- 11.0 ml. In the hypotension group, these values were 53.9 +/- 14.0 ml, 40.6 +/- 19.6 ml and 18.1 +/- 12.2 ml respectively. The ICP increased from 9.1 +/- 8.6 to 90.0 +/- 22.6 mmHg in the control group and in the hypotension group from 4.5 +/- 6.5 to 37.7 +/- 10.1 mmHg. The water content of the affected hemisphere was 79.7 +/- 0.5% in the control group and 79.1 +/- 0.5% in the hypotension group. The hypotension didn't change the CBF just after reperfusion and also maintained it more than the control until 3 hrs after the reperfusion.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
A complement-dependent bactericidal factor (RaRF) specific for the Ra chemotype strains of Salmonella and for the Ra-like strains of other enterobacteria has been found in sera of mice. We show here that the anti-Ra bactericidal factors are present in sera of all species, so far tested, of mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and bony and cartilaginous fish. Certain properties, such as binding specificity, requirement of divalent cations for binding, and sensitivities to heat and reducing agents, of the factor in the representative animals were the same as or similar to those of the mouse RaRF. These results indicate that these factors have been conserved by vertebrates for more than 300 million years as a result of the necessity for the resistance to rough mutants of Gram-negative bacteria.

Abstract
A complement-dependent bactericidal factor, Ra-reactive factor, that acts specifically on Ra chemotype strains of Salmonella was found in sera of eighteen strains of nonimmune mice, including a thymusless strain. The specificity of binding of this factor to the cells of Ra chemotype bacteria was evidenced by absorption studies. The factor was inactivated by treatment with 0.02 M 2-mercaptoethanol or heating for 30 min at 55 degrees C. This factor was present in mice reared by feeding with a chemically defined, antigen-free diet under germ-free conditions. Fetal and newborn mice from a conventional or germ-free mother had the factor, although the titer was lower than the adults'. The titer in the newborn mice reached adult level 1 wk after birth. The titer in the adult mice did not increase markedly after immunization with heat-killed bacteria or administration of Freund's complete adjuvant and turpentine. These results indicate that this factor is actively produced by mice that have never been stimulated with exogenous Ra antigen.

Abstract
It has been shown that nonimmune mouse sera contain a complement-dependent bactericidal factor that reacts specifically with Ra chemotype Salmonella. In this study we investigate a specific determinant to which this factor binds. This factor bound to Ra chemotype lipopolysaccharide (LPS) but not to S or Re chemotype LPS. The binding was markedly inhibited by N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (GlcNAc), which was the nonreducing terminal of the Ra polysaccharide chain and by certain monosaccharides structurally relating to L-glycero-D-mannoheptose, a terminal component of a side branch of Ra polysaccharide. The factor bound to the Ra bacteria could be eluted with a medium containing GlcNAc. These results indicate that the specific determinant is the polysaccharide region of LPS characteristic of Ra chemotype Salmonella. Ca2+ but not Mg2+ was required for the specific binding of the factor to cells of Ra bacteria. A molecule composed of a polypeptide of 28,000 m.w. was found in the active fraction obtained by the monosaccharide elution. However, no polypeptides corresponding to light and heavy chains of mouse immunoglobins were detected from the active fraction.

Abstract
Bactericidal factors in antisera against various chemotype strains of Salmonella were assayed by means of the spot method. Certain smooth and rough strains were resistant to the killing effect of immune mouse sera when the activity was assayed in an isotonic salt medium and guinea pig complement was used. However, the sensitivity was found to be increased in various degrees by assaying it in a medium containing hypotonic concentrations of NaCl or tris(hydroxymethyl)-aminomethane-HCl (Tris-HCl). Keeping the resistant bacteria in hypotonic solutions before or after treatment with complement increased the titer of antiserum, indicating that the hypotonic solution increases the sensitivity of bacterial cells to the antiserum and/or complement. The optimal salt concentration for the assay of serum-sensitive and -resistant smooth strains was 0.02 M NaCl. With Ra through Rd chemotype strains, 0.1 M NaCl before complement treatment and 0.05 M NaCl after the treatment was the best. Isotonic medium was necessary for the titration of the Re chemotype strain. Specificity of the killing effect which was assayed by the hypotonic spot method was shown by adsorption studies on the immune sera. Use of C4-deficient guinea pig complement resulted in low titers against certain strains of bacteria and high titers were restored by the addition of the C4 component of complement. These results indicate that serologically specific bactericidal factors including antibody can be assayed by the spot method using hypotonic NaCl or Tris-HCl.

Abstract
Cerebral blood flow and metabolism were measured in 9 patients with neurological deficits after subarachnoid hemorrhage using the 133Xe intra carotid injection methods. Regional cerebral blood flow (r-CBF) values were calculated with initial slope method (2 minutes flow index), their values were compared with the blood flow response to arterial PCO2 and to administration of hydrogenated ergot alkaloids (HEA). In case of repeated examination after short interval CBF values were corrected using the rate of reproducibility. The content of oxygen, glucose, lactate, and pyruvate in the arterial and the internal jugular blood were measured , and CMRO2, CMR glucose, CMR lactate, values were calculated: 1st step: The measurement of r-CBF was performed immediately after the infusion of 1.5 mg HEA for 15 minutes. The focal ischemic lesions decreased, mean CBF value increased by 8% significantly, arterio-venous difference of oxygen value increased by 20% significantly and CMRO2 value increased by 26% significantly after HEA administration. 2nd step: 1.8 mg HEA was infused for one week. EEG findings were improved after administration of HEA. The pressure and the lactate levels of cerebrospinal fluid decreased, but the effect of HEA must be carefully distinguished from natural recovery. Administration of HEA increased the CMRO2 values and consequently increased the mean CBF values.
