Abstract
INTRODUCTION Proline-rich protein 11 (PRR11) functions in the progression of cell cycle, and silencing the PRR11 gene in lung cancer cells results in the inhibition of cellular proliferation, cell cycle progression, cell migration, invasion and colony formation. PRR11 may therefore be a therapeutic target in lung cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS Microarrays of surgical specimens of non-mucinous invasive adenocarcinoma of the lung, from 346 subjects that were not given preoperative therapy, were autoimmunostained with PRR11 and, except for trace and pseudo-positivity, assessed as "positive" at any proportion and intensity. RESULTS PRR11 immunoreactivity demonstrated a tendency to associate with an aggressive phenotype (tumor size, vascular invasion, and adjuvant therapy) and some effect on overall survival (Hazard ratio 1.51). CONCLUSIONS PRR11 may be a weak prognostic indicator of overall survival of patients with non-mucinous invasive adenocarcinoma of the lung.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several previous studies have suggested that detection of a third heart sound (S3) in patients with chronic congestive heart failure is associated with adverse long-term outcomes. However, the short-term prognostic value of identifying an S3 on admission in patients with acute heart failure (AHF) is not well established. We therefore analysed the in-hospital prognostic value of detecting an S3 on admission in hospitalised patients with AHF. METHODS The Acute Decompensated Heart Failure Syndromes (ATTEND) study investigators enrolled 4107 patients hospitalised with AHF. Investigators evaluated the presence or absence of an S3 during routine physical examination. RESULTS On admission to hospital, 1673 patients (41%) had an S3. Patients with an S3 had a higher heart rate, higher serum level of B-type natriuretic peptide and higher creatinine levels than patients without an S3. However, there were no significant differences of systolic blood pressure, serum sodium, haemoglobin, C-reactive protein and total bilirubin between the two groups. Multivariate analysis adjusted for various markers of disease severity revealed that only the presence of an S3 was independently associated with an increase of in-hospital all cause death [adjusted odds ratio (OR), 1.69; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.19-2.41; p = 0.003] and cardiac death (adjusted OR, 1.66; 95% CI, 1.08-2.54; p = 0.020) among the congestive physical findings related to heart failure (S3, rales, jugular venous distension and peripheral oedema). CONCLUSIONS Detecting an S3 on admission was independently associated with adverse in-hospital outcomes in patients with AHF. Our findings suggest that careful bedside assessment is clinically meaningful.

Abstract
The contribution of B meson decays to nonphotonic electrons, which are mainly produced by the semileptonic decays of heavy-flavor mesons, in p + p collisions at √s=200 GeV has been measured using azimuthal correlations between nonphotonic electrons and hadrons. The extracted B decay contribution is approximately 50% at a transverse momentum of pT≥5 GeV/c. These measurements constrain the nuclear modification factor for electrons from B and D meson decays. The result indicates that B meson production in heavy ion collisions is also suppressed at high pT.

Abstract
We report the first measurements of the kurtosis (κ), skewness (S), and variance (σ2) of net-proton multiplicity (Np-Np) distributions at midrapidity for Au+Au collisions at square root of s(NN)=19.6, 62.4, and 200 GeV corresponding to baryon chemical potentials (μB) between 200 and 20 MeV. Our measurements of the products κσ2 and Sσ, which can be related to theoretical calculations sensitive to baryon number susceptibilities and long-range correlations, are constant as functions of collision centrality. We compare these products with results from lattice QCD and various models without a critical point and study the square root of s(NN) dependence of κσ2. From the measurements at the three beam energies, we find no evidence for a critical point in the QCD phase diagram for μB below 200 MeV.

Abstract
We report the first three-particle coincidence measurement in pseudorapidity (Δη) between a high transverse momentum (p⊥) trigger particle and two lower p⊥ associated particles within azimuth |Δϕ|<0.7 in square root of s(NN)=200 GeV d+Au and Au+Au collisions. Charge ordering properties are exploited to separate the jetlike component and the ridge (long range Δη correlation). The results indicate that the correlation of ridge particles are uniform not only with respect to the trigger particle but also between themselves event by event in our measured Δη. In addition, the production of the ridge appears to be uncorrelated to the presence of the narrow jetlike component.

Abstract
Parity-odd domains, corresponding to nontrivial topological solutions of the QCD vacuum, might be created during relativistic heavy-ion collisions. These domains are predicted to lead to charge separation of quarks along the system's orbital momentum axis. We investigate a three-particle azimuthal correlator which is a P even observable, but directly sensitive to the charge separation effect. We report measurements of charged hadrons near center-of-mass rapidity with this observable in Au + Au and Cu + Cu collisions at square root of s(NN) = 200 GeV using the STAR detector. A signal consistent with several expectations from the theory is detected. We discuss possible contributions from other effects that are not related to parity violation.

Abstract
Forward-backward multiplicity correlation strengths have been measured with the STAR detector for Au + Au and p + p collisions at square root of s(NN) = 200 GeV. Strong short- and long-range correlations (LRC) are seen in central Au + Au collisions. The magnitude of these correlations decrease with decreasing centrality until only short-range correlations are observed in peripheral Au + Au collisions. Both the dual parton model (DPM) and the color glass condensate (CGC) predict the existence of the long-range correlations. In the DPM, the fluctuation in the number of elementary (parton) inelastic collisions produces the LRC. In the CGC, longitudinal color flux tubes generate the LRC. The data are in qualitative agreement with the predictions of the DPM and indicate the presence of multiple parton interactions.

Abstract
Topical application of siRNA to the skin should be an effective treatment for serious skin disorders, such as atopic dermatitis. However, it is difficult to introduce hydrophilic macromolecules, including siRNA, into the skin by conventional methods. For efficient delivery of siRNA, we examined an iontophoretic technique, since it is suitable for the delivery of charged molecules. Naked siRNA effectively accumulated in the epidermis (and not in the dermis) after iontophoretic delivery. In contrast, siRNA did not penetrate tape-stripped skin by passive diffusion. In a rat model of atopic dermatitis, skin was sensitized with ovalbumin to stimulate IL-10 mRNA expression as observed in skin lesions. Iontophoretic delivery of anti-IL-10 siRNA significantly reduced (73%) the level of IL-10 mRNA. In conclusion, we successfully delivered naked siRNA into the epidermis and concomitantly suppressed the expression of an endogenous immuno-regulatory cytokine.

Abstract
We report K/pi fluctuations from Au + Au collisions at sqrt[s(NN)]= 19.6, 62.4, 130, and 200 GeV using the STAR detector at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. K/pi fluctuations in central collisions show little dependence on incident energy and are on the same order as those from NA49 at the Super Proton Synchrotron in central Pb + Pb collisions at sqrt[s(NN)]=12.3 and 17.3 GeV. We report results for the collision centrality dependence of K/pi fluctuations and results for charge-separated fluctuations. We observe that the K/pi fluctuations scale with the charged particle multiplicity density.

Abstract
In ultraperipheral relativistic heavy-ion collisions, a photon from the electromagnetic field of one nucleus can fluctuate to a quark-antiquark pair and scatter from the other nucleus, emerging as a rho{0}. The rho{0} production occurs in two well-separated (median impact parameters of 20 and 40 F for the cases considered here) nuclei, so the system forms a two-source interferometer. At low transverse momenta, the two amplitudes interfere destructively, suppressing rho{0} production. Since the rho{0} decays before the production amplitudes from the two sources can overlap, the two-pion system can only be described with an entangled nonlocal wave function, and is thus an example of the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox. We observe this suppression in 200 GeV per nucleon-pair gold-gold collisions. The interference is 87%+/-5%(stat.)+/-8%(syst.) of the expected level. This translates into a limit on decoherence due to wave function collapse or other factors of 23% at the 90% confidence level.

Abstract
Three-particle azimuthal correlation measurements with a high transverse momentum trigger particle are reported for pp, d+Au, and Au+Au collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200 GeV by the STAR experiment. Dijet structures are observed in pp, d+Au and peripheral Au+Au collisions. An additional structure is observed in central Au+Au data, signaling conical emission of correlated charged hadrons. The conical emission angle is found to be theta=1.37+/-0.02(stat)-0.07+0.06(syst), independent of p_{ perpendicular}.

Abstract
We measure directed flow (v_{1}) for charged particles in Au+Au and Cu+Cu collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200 and 62.4 GeV, as a function of pseudorapidity (eta), transverse momentum (p_{t}), and collision centrality, based on data from the STAR experiment. We find that the directed flow depends on the incident energy but, contrary to all available model implementations, not on the size of the colliding system at a given centrality. We extend the validity of the limiting fragmentation concept to v_{1} in different collision systems, and investigate possible explanations for the observed sign change in v_{1}(p_{t}).

Abstract
We report precision measurements of the Feynman x (xF) dependence, and first measurements of the transverse momentum (pT) dependence, of transverse single-spin asymmetries for the production of pi0 mesons from polarized proton collisions at sqrt[s] = 200 GeV. The xF dependence of the results is in fair agreement with perturbative QCD model calculations that identify orbital motion of quarks and gluons within the proton as the origin of the spin effects. Results for the pT dependence at fixed xF are not consistent with these same perturbative QCD-based calculations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Chronic middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion is more common than generally thought. It is important to assess the cerebral hemodynamic status in patients with this chronic condition. We investigated the cerebral hemodynamic and metabolic disturbances in these patients in relation to the development of the collateral vasculature. MATERIALS AND METHODS We studied 13 patients with chronic unilateral MCA occlusion who had a minor or no stroke by using positron-emission tomography (PET). PET was performed by the oxygen 15 ((15)O) gas steady-state inhalation method. The intracranial arteries were evaluated by digital subtraction angiography. We divided the patients into 2 subgroups according to whether they had a normal or increased oxygen extraction fraction (OEF) in the occluded MCA territory and compared the 2 groups. RESULTS Of the 13 patients, 9 were classified into the normal OEF and 4 were classified into the increased OEF group. In the increased OEF group, the mean OEF values were also increased in the territories of the ipsilateral anterior cerebral artery, ipsilateral posterior cerebral artery, and contralateral MCA. The patients in the increased OEF group had more than 1 steno-occlusive lesion in the major intracranial arteries (P = .008). Three of the 4 patients in the increased OEF group also had vascular lesions in the collateral pathways to the MCA territory. CONCLUSION Most patients with chronic MCA occlusion did not show severe hemodynamic impairment. Those with increased OEF tended to have other areas of severe hemodynamic impairment and other vascular lesions, especially in the collateral pathways.

Abstract
We describe a patient with seizures following a stroke in whom on ictal 99mTc-HMPAO single-photon emission computed tomography demonstrated cerebral blood flow "schistotaxis", i.e., focal hyperaemia corresponding to an epileptogenic focus together with an extensive hypoperfused area in the same hemisphere. This phenomenon may have been caused by haemodynamic alternation and a remote transneural effect during the seizures.

Abstract
cDNA clones significantly expressed in brown adipose tissue (BAT) but not in white adipose tissue (WAT) of rats were isolated by use of a PCR-select cDNA subtraction kit. Of the isolated clones, structural features of two of them, 2-58 and 2-67, were studied in detail. The results indicated that these clones were cDNAs encoding alpha- and beta-subunits of rat NAD(+)-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase (NAD(+)-ICDH). Previous biochemical study suggested the importance of NAD(+)-ICDH in metabolism in BAT; however, transcript levels of individual subunits of this enzyme in BAT had never been analyzed. In the present study, using these newly isolated cDNAs, we clearly demonstrate that the expression of three subunits of NAD(+)-ICDH was the most remarkable in BAT among the various tissues analyzed.

Abstract
Refractory acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) has a poor prognosis, and a long-term survival cannot be expected in most patients even if allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (allo-BMT) or allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (allo-PBSCT) is performed. An abundance of residual leukemic cells and poor performance status of patients before allo-BMT are often associated with a high relapse rate and high transplant-related mortality. Thus, to improve the prognosis of patients with refractory AML undergoing allo-BMT, it is necessary to reduce the leukemic cell volume as low as possible without severe complications. In this report, we used CAG (cytarabine, aclarubicin and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)) therapy for cytoreduction before allo-BMT or allo-PBSCT in five patients with refractory AML. One of them achieved complete remission (CR) by CAG therapy alone and others achieved major tumor reduction prior to BMT and PBSCT. All patients achieved CR after allo-BMT and allo-PBSCT without severe complications. Three of them have remained CR for 9, 21 and 30 months, respectively. Although the results of this feasibility study are preliminary, the pre-transplant CAG therapy for refractory AML deserves further evaluation.

Abstract
For characterization of the detailed gene structure of human muscle type carnitine palmitoyltransferase I (M-CPTI), we analyzed the 5'-upstream region of the M-CPTI transcripts. As a result, we found a cDNA clone containing a nucleotide sequence unexpected from the reported M-CPTI gene structure in the upstream region of its 5' end. Comparison of this nucleotide sequence with that of genomic DNA showed that this sequence was derived from the 3'-untranslated region of the gene encoding choline/ethanolamine kinase-beta (CK/EK-beta) located upstream of the M-CPTI gene. Southern blot analysis showed that there was no other region homologous to the CK/EK-beta gene in the whole human genome. Thus, the overlapping transcript was concluded to be produced from the functional genes of CK/EK-beta and M-CPTI. Furthermore, cDNAs containing both exons of these genes were detected by the polymerase chain reaction using the cDNA of human heart M-CPTI obtained by specific reverse transcription from its 3'-untranslated region as a template. From these results, the production and organization of these overlapping transcripts are discussed.

Abstract
A 51-year-old man was admitted for treatment of severe thrombocytopenia in May 1997. A diagnosis of MDS RA (refractory thrombocytopenia; RTC) was made by bone marrow examination, which revealed mild marrow hypoplasia and a reduced number of megakaryocytes accompanied by micromegakaryocytes and hypolobular megakaryocytes. Chromosome analysis demonstrated 46, XY, t(5;7) (q31;q22) in all 20 cells examined. The patient received only supportive therapy including platelet transfusion, until leukocytosis and monocytosis gradually developed in November 1998. In view of a marked increase in the number of monocytes (more than 3,000/microliter), a diagnosis of CMML was made in December 1998. As the leukocytosis progressed, various inflammatory symptoms such as facial erythema and endophthalmitis developed. Administration of interferon alpha (IFN alpha) unexpectedly worsened the leukocytosis and monocytosis, suggesting abnormal responses of these cells to IFN alpha. Detailed molecular analysis of these cells might reveal a novel mechanism of leukemogenesis associated with 5q31.

Abstract
A 40-year-old man received blood transfusion in December 1998 because of gastric bleeding from a peptic ulcer. One month later, he developed febrile hemolytic anemia. Administration of high doses of glucocorticoid significantly reduced the hemolysis, but did not cure the disease. To investigate the cause of the hemolysis, the patient was transferred to our hospital in May 1999. Giemsa-stained peripheral blood smears showed Babesia parasites in the red blood cells (RBC), and PCR analysis confirmed the presence of Babesia microti DNA. The parasitemia disappeared hematologically after 2 weeks of quinine and clindamycin therapy. However, parasite DNA was still detectable in the RBC. Although treatment with oral atovaquone was given for 2 weeks, parasitemia and febrile hemolysis recurred within a month after the last treatment. Fortunately, complete remission was obtained after a second 12-week course of therapy with quinine and clindamycin. PCR analysis revealed asymptomatic Babesia infection in one of eight samples from the original blood donor. The initial steroid therapy given to the patient without an accurate diagnosis seemed to have delayed augmentation of the specific antibodies (IgG) against Babesia microti, thus prolonging the parasitemia after the initial acute stage of babesiosis.

Abstract
Cytokine levels in sera from 14 patients undergoing allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (alloBMT) or donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) were sequentially measured to evaluate the roles of cytokines in clinical graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). In clinical courses, interleukin (IL)-1 alpha, IL-1 beta, IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and interferon (IFN)-gamma were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Among the evaluable cases, 6 patients developed acute GVHD. Serum IL-5 levels increased to more than 100 pg/mL in 5 of the 6 patients before, or simultaneously with, the clinical manifestation of acute GVHD. Elevation of IL-5 was transient in 3 patients. In the other 2 patients who showed regimen-related toxicity and/or thrombotic microangiopathy as well as acute GVHD, remarkable and sustained elevation of the serum IL-5 level was observed. In 7 patients without acute GVHD, IL-5 levels remained below 100 pg/mL. An association of acute GVHD was less prominent with TNF-alpha than with IL-5 in our study. Elevation of IL-6 was associated with infections. In 2 patients with severe extensive chronic GVHD, serum IL-10 was elevated in parallel with exacerbation of clinical symptoms. Our findings suggest that an elevated serum IL-5 level may be a marker of acute GVHD.

Abstract
A 54-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital complaining of dyspnea due to hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy. On admission, she was treated with 4 antiarrhythmic drugs and 2 beta-blockers. After 4 of these 6 drugs were withdrawn, the left ventricular outflow pressure gradient markedly increased and then she fell into cardiogenic shock. Therefore, disopyramide(600 mg/day) was administered by continuous intravenous drip infusion to reduce the left ventricular outflow pressure gradient. After intravenous administration of disopyramide, the left ventricular outflow pressure gradient markedly decreased from 100 to 16 mmHg and the cardiogenic shock could be improved. Continuous intravenous drip infusion of disopyramide is effective for the treatment of cardiogenic shock due to severe left ventricular outflow obstruction in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy.

An elevated level of sFasL was decreased after local radiation therapy, and liver function improved. When lymphoma relapsed, liver dysfunction reappeared and the level of sFasL increased parallelly. Lymphoma cells expressed mRNA of FasL. This suggested that this liver dysfunction was induced by some remote effectors, and sFasL was one of candidates of these effectors.

Abstract
Three patients with different clinical symptoms of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) who had received donor lymphocyte transfusion (DLT) for the treatment of relapsed leukaemia after an allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) from HLA-matched sibling donors were analysed for the presence of soluble FasL (sFasL) in the sera and for the expression of the Fas ligand (FasL) gene in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMNC). Two patients who demonstrated liver damage with increased levels of serum bilirubin showed significantly increased levels of serum sFasL. The increase in the sFasL level was observed prior to the increase in the bilirubin during the clinical courses of both patients. The high dose of methyl predonisolone administered to one of these patients greatly reduced the levels of sFasL in the serum. The bilirubin levels were also reduced thereafter. The third patient (without liver damage) did not show any increase in the serum sFasL level. The expression of the FasL gene in the PBMNC of these three patients was examined. All three patients showed increased levels of the FasL gene expression during their clinical courses. However, only one patient showed a parallel alteration of FasL gene expression with sFasL in the serum. These cases provide evidence that the Fas/FasL system is closely associated with human GVHD, especially in the development of liver GVHD.

Abstract
Thrombotic microangiopathy is a well-known heterogeneous disorder that occurs as a complication of allogenic bone marrow transplantation (BMT). We evaluated 12 consecutive patients receiving HLA-matched unrelated BMT and 12 consecutive recipients of HLA-identical related BMT for the development of bone marrow transplantation-associated thrombotic microangiopathy (BMT-TM) on days 30 and 60 following BMT. A diagnosis was made in four of 12 (33.3%) unrelated compared to none of 12 (0%) HLA-identical cases. Levels of serum lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), fibrin degraded products (FDP) and de novo thrombocytopenia were elevated in eight of 12 patients (66.7%) receiving unrelated donor BMT, and none of the patients receiving related donor BMT. Our findings suggest clinical or subclinical microangiopathic changes may occur frequently in unrelated donor BMT. FDP elevation is possibly an important marker of microangiopathic changes as early complications of BMT.

Abstract
1. To determine the contribution of the various phosphodiesterase (PDE) isozymes to the regulation of the L-type calcium current (ICa(L)) in the human myocardium, we investigated the effect of selective and non-selective PDE inhibitors on ICa(L) in single human atrial cells by use of the whole-cell patch-clamp method. We repeated some experiments in rabbit atrial myocytes, to make a species comparison. 2. In human atrial cells, 100 microM pimobendan increased ICa(L) (evoked by depolarization to +10 mV from a holding potential of -40 mV) by 250.4 +/- 45.0% (n = 15), with the concentration for half-maximal stimulation (EC50) being 1.13 microM. ICa(L) was increased by 100 microM UD-CG 212 by 174.5 +/- 30.2% (n = 10) with an EC50 value of 1.78 microM in human atrial cells. These two agents inhibit PDE III selectively. 3. A selective PDE IV inhibitor, rolipram (1-100 microM), did not itself affect ICa(L) in human atrial cells. However, 100 microM rolipram significantly enhanced the effect of 100 microM UD-CG 212 on ICa(L) (increase with UD-CG 212 alone, 167.9 +/- 33.9, n = 5; increase with the two agents together, 270.0 +/- 52.2%; n = 5, P < 0.05). Rolipram also enhanced isoprenaline (5 nM)-stimulated ICa(L) by 52.9 +/- 9.3% (n = 5) in human atrial cells. 4. In rabbit atrial cells, ICa(L) at +10 mV was increased by 22.1 +/- 9.0% by UD-CG 212 (n = 10) and by 67.4 +/- 12.0% (n = 10) by pimobendan (each at 100 microM). These values were significantly lower than those obtained in human atrial cells (P < 0.0001). Rolipram (1-100 microM) did not itself affect ICa(L) in rabbit atrial cells. However, ICa(L) was increased by 215.7 +/- 65.2% (n = 10) by the combination of 100 microM UD-CG 212 and 100 microM rolipram. This value was almost 10 times larger than that obtained for the effect of 100 microM UD-CG 212 alone. 5. These results imply a species difference: in the human atrium, the PDE III isoform seems dominant, whereas PDE IV may be more important in the rabbit atrium for regulating ICa(L). However, PDE IV might contribute significantly to the regulation of intracellular cyclic AMP in human myocardium when PDE III is already inhibited or when the myocardium is under beta-adrenoceptor-mediated stimulation.

Abstract
A 21-year-old female was admitted to Tamono City Hospital with chief complaint of dyspnea due to spontaneous pneumothorax. The patient was transferred to our clinic for further examination of abnormal chest X-ray findings together with skin lesions and other symptoms of polyuria, amenorrhea and narrowed visual fields. Histochemical and electron microscopic examination of lung tissue obtained by open lung biopsy led to the diagnosis of eosinophilic granuloma. Furthermore, enhanced computed tomography and magnetic resonance images showed the existence of an intracranial tumor in the supra-hypophyseal region which was interpreted as the cause of hormonal and visual disturbances. Because of dyspnea and enlargement of intracranial tumor, treatment with steroid hormone was commerced followed by tapering of the dose. Chest X-ray findings and skin lesions improved markedly and the intracranial tumor regressed significantly with this steroid therapy, indicating that the intracranial tumor represented involvement with eosinophilic granuloma.

Abstract
The effects of long-term glucocorticoid therapy on chemical mediator and cellular reaction in the airways were examined in 69 patients with bronchial asthma. The histamine release induced by Ca ionophore A23187 from cells in the bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid of atopic asthmatics was significantly lower in the subgroup with steroid-dependent intractable asthma (SDIA) than in non-SDIA patients (p < 0.05). In contrast, histamine release in nonatopic SDIA patients did not differ from nonatopic non-SDIA patients. The release of leukotriene C4 (LTC4) was significantly lower in atopic patients with SDIA (p < 0.02). However, there was no significant difference in LTC4 release between nonatopic patients with SDIA and without SDIA. The proportion of BAL lymphocytes was significantly lower in atopic patients with SDIA than in those without it (p < 0.05), although there was no significant difference between the nonatopic patients with and without SDIA. These results show that glucocorticoids affect humoral and cellular events in the airways of atopic asthmatics more than in those of nonatopic asthmatics.

Abstract
Immunoallergological studies were carried out to clarify the differences between 24 patients with drug-induced asthma (DIA) and 240 with non-drug-induced asthma (non-DIA). The mean values of age, skin reaction to Candida albicans (C. albicans), serum IgE levels, specific IgE antibodies to house dust (HD) and C. albicans, bronchial sensitivity and leukotriene B4 (LTB4) synthesis from peripheral venous blood in patients with DIA were not significantly different from those in patients with non-DIA. In contrast, the frequency of positive skin reaction to HD and histamine release from peripheral basophils by anti-IgE were significantly lower in DIA than in non-DIA. These results agree with the reports that DIA was often observed in non-atopic asthma. But, the mean value of serum IgE was very high in DIA as well as in non-DIA. This result suggests that IgE mediated reaction in DIA is important. Furthermore, the proportion of neutrophils in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was significantly lower in DIA than in non-DIA. Our findings suggest that a decrease of intrapulmonary neutrophils might play an important role in the pathophysiology of DIA.

Abstract
The effects of glucocorticoids on the proportion of lymphocytes in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid in relation to humoral and cellular immunity were studied in 56 patients with steroid-dependent intractable asthma. To analyze the mechanism responsible for reduced numbers of BAL lymphocytes, we divided the subjects into 4 groups according to their BAL lymphocyte proportions: 0-4.9%, 5.0-9.9%, 10.0-14.9%, and 15.0-20.0%. Serum IgG levels and the peripheral lymphocyte count were significantly reduced in patients with a low proportion of BAL lymphocytes (less than 9.9%) than in those with more than 10% BAL lymphocytes. Delayed cutaneous reactivity to purified protein derivative was suppressed in patients with a low proportion of BAL lymphocytes (less than 4.9%). The mean proportion of BAL neutrophils tended to increase as the proportion of BAL lymphocytes decreased. These results show that the reduction in BAL lymphocytes produced by glucocorticoids is associated with suppressed humoral and cellular immunity, and that under such conditions the proportion of BAL neutrophils increases.

Abstract
A case of PIE syndrome induced by Saiboku-To (TJ96) is reported. A 56-year-old woman had been treated for intractable bronchial asthma since the age of 42 years. She had a history of PIE syndrome induced by disodium cromoglycate 4 years previously (Jpn. J. Thoracic Disease, 27.1.1989). To reduce the dose of prednisolone for her asthma, administration of TJ96 was started in Dec. 1989. After 5 months of TJ96 treatment, she developed dry cough, fever, and chest pain. Physical findings and laboratory examinations revealed pulmonary infiltrations in the right lung field and severe eosinophilia. Because of suspected drug-induced PIE, TJ96 was stopped and 30 mg/day prednisolone was administered. Her symptoms and laboratory abnormalities subsequently resolved. To confirm the diagnosis of drug-induced PIE syndrome, drug-induced lymphocyte stimulation tests with TJ96 and other drugs were performed. TJ96 significantly induced lymphocyte blastogenesis with a stimulation index of 6.1. Moreover, the supernatant of the incubation mixture of TJ96 and peripheral lymphocytes from the patient showed marked eosinophil chemotactic activity. To our knowledge, there has been no previous report of PIE syndrome induced by TJ96. In addition, this is the first report of the detection of ECF activity in lymphocytes induced by an offending drug in vitro.

Abstract
The cellular components of bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid of patients with hypersensitivity pneumonitis were analyzed in regard to the inhalation period of antigen in the environment before BAL procedure. BAL fluid in early phase of antigen inhalation contained increased percent of neutrophils as well as lymphocytes while low percent of neutrophils and prominent increase of lymphocytes in chronic antigen inhalation. Furthermore, the increased neutrophils in BAL fluid decreased rapidly after admission as cessation of antigen inhalation while the lymphocyte percent decreased gradually. In relation to respiratory function the lymphocyte percent showed statistically significant negative correlation with %TLC, %VC and %DLco. On the other hand the percent of neutrophils showed some relationship with the airway damage and inflammatory changes in early phase of this disease.

Abstract
A sixty six-year-old female who had been treated for bronchial asthma for about 25 years was admitted to the hospital with complaints of episodes of dyspnea, eosinophilia and infiltrative shadows in the chest X-ray film. An infiltrative shadow appeared to move from the left to the right lung field and finally formed a shadow of atelectasis in the middle field of the right lung. A sputum culture showed only Candida albicans. Allergic and immunologic examination revealed high IgE serum levels with specific IgE against Candida albicans in high titer, and Aspergillus fumigatus in low titer. The precipitating antibody was shown only against Candida antigen. Additionally, the blastogenic response to Candida antigen was high in comparison with other fungal antigens including Aspergillus fumigatus. The clinical features and laboratory findings of this patient were found to satisfy Rosenberg's criteria for allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA), except for the existence of Candida albicans in place of Aspergillus species as the causative antigen. The pathogenesis of PIE syndrome has been studied and various allergic mechanisms against many antigens reported. In this patient Candida albicans could be playing the crucial role in the formation of PIE syndrome, which might be best described as allergic bronchopulmonary candidiasis (ABPC).
