Abstract
The memories for past autobiographical experiences that we share can influence relationship formation and consolidation with important implications for our mental health. However, little is known about how people's responses to our memories can influence subsequent memory sharing. Previous research examined how operant processes (i.e., punishment with aversive sounds) influence the sharing of memories for specific events from our past. Understanding the (social) mechanisms associated with difficulty sharing specific autobiographical memories is important given the association between these difficulties and a range of psychiatric diagnoses. We investigate the effects of verbal and non-verbal social operants on the willingness to share specific autobiographical memories. Participants shared memories with a confederate who coded their memories as specific or non-specific and responded in either an engaged/attentive, dismissive manner or gave no feedback depending on participants' assigned condition. Participants who were reinforced for sharing specific memories and punished for sharing non-specific memories, were more likely to share specific than non-specific memories compared to those who received no feedback. Reinforcement alone was not sufficient for modifying specificity. The ways that we respond to people when they share memories with us can influence their subsequent willingness to share specific events from their past.

Abstract
PURPOSE As we are exposed to stress on a daily basis, it is important to detect and treat stress during the subclinical period. However, methods to quantify and confirm stress are currently unavailable, and the detection of subclinical stressors is difficult. This study aimed to determine whether manganese-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MEMRI) could be used to assess stress in rat brains. METHODS We exposed male Wistar/ST rats bred in a specific pathogen-free environment to ultrasound stimuli (22 kHz and 55 kHz) for 10 days and then assessed brain activities using MEMRI, the light/dark box test, and ΔFosB immunohistochemical staining. RESULTS In the MEMRI assessments, exposure at 22 kHz activated the periaqueductal gray, while exposure at 55 kHz specifically enhanced activity in the nucleus accumbens core and the orbitofrontal cortex. The exploratory behavior of the 55-kHz group increased sharply, while that of the 22-kHz group showed a lower exploratory value. ΔFosB expression increased in the orbitofrontal cortex, nucleus accumbens, periaqueductal gray, and amygdaloid nucleus in the 22-kHz group. CONCLUSION Ultrasound stimuli at 22 kHz suppressed weight gain in rats and excessive ΔFosB induction in the nucleus accumbens caused excessive sensitization of the neural circuit, thereby contributing to pathological behavior. We thus demonstrated that MEMRI can be useful to objectively assess the pathophysiology of stress-related disorders.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We hypothesised that the radiomics signature, which includes texture information of dopamine transporter single-photon emission computed tomography (DAT-SPECT) images for Parkinson's disease (PD), may assist semi-quantitative indices. Herein, we constructed a radiomics signature using DAT-SPECT-derived radiomics features that effectively discriminated PD from healthy individuals and evaluated its classification performance. RESULTS We analysed 413 cases of both normal control (NC, n = 101) and PD (n = 312) groups from the Parkinson's Progression Markers Initiative database. Data were divided into the training and two test datasets with different SPECT manufacturers. DAT-SPECT images were spatially normalised to the Montreal Neurologic Institute space. We calculated 930 radiomics features, including intensity- and texture-based features in the caudate, putamen, and pallidum volumes of interest. The striatum uptake ratios (SURs) of the caudate, putamen, and pallidum were also calculated as conventional semi-quantification indices. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator was used for feature selection and construction of the radiomics signature. The four classification models were constructed using a radiomics signature and/or semi-quantitative indicator. Furthermore, we compared the classification performance of the semi-quantitative indicator alone and the combination with the radiomics signature for the classification models. The receiver operating characteristics (ROC) analysis was used to evaluate the classification performance. The classification performance of SURputamen was higher than that of other semi-quantitative indicators. The radiomics signature resulted in a slightly increased area under the ROC curve (AUC) compared to SURputamen in each test dataset. When combined with SURputamen and radiomics signature, all classification models showed slightly higher AUCs than that of SURputamen alone. CONCLUSION We constructed a DAT-SPECT image-derived radiomics signature. Performance analysis showed that the current radiomics signature would be helpful for the diagnosis of PD and has the potential to provide robust diagnostic performance.

Abstract
The utility of three-dimensional (3D) imaging with cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) during interventional radiology (IVR) in colonic diverticular bleeding was compared to that of contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT). Additionally, to identify the responsible vessels in the absence of extravascular leakage using digital subtraction angiography, we examined the detection rate using software conventionally applied to transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE). The 3D images obtained by CECT before IVR did not clearly show the destroyed vessels, whereas the 3D images obtained by CBCT during IVR clearly depicted the peripheral vessels. The TACE-assisted software identified the responsible vessels with a high probability, even in cases without extravascular leakage. CBCT could delineate vascular positions more accurately than CECT. Moreover, 80% of the responsible vessels could be delineated using the software; however, caution should be exercised as results may differ depending on the positioning of the region of interest.

Abstract
Background Exophiala dermatitidis is an environmental black fungus that rarely causes respiratory infections, yet its pathophysiological features and treatment regimens have not been established. Case Series Two cases of exacerbations of chronic bronchitis and sinusitis due to E. dermatitidis infection in Japan are presented. Both patients were women, and non-tuberculous Mycobacterium (NTM) infection was suspected based on chest radiological findings, but E. dermatitidis was detected from bronchial lavage fluid and nasal mucus, respectively. Both cases were successfully treated by antifungal agents such as liposomal amphotericin B, voriconazole, and itraconazole, but clarithromycin, rifampicin, ethambutol, and sitafloxacin for NTM were not effective. Conclusion E. dermatitidis can become a respiratory pathogen, especially in patients with chronic sinobronchial syndrome.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chronotropic incompetence (CI) is broadly defined as the inability of the heart to increase its rate commensurate with increased activity. In this study, we tried to clarify the link between CI and UPDRS part II (off-on), which was calculated by subtracting part II (on) from part II (off), in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). METHODS Thirty-six hospitalized patients were examined by using cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) for exercise tolerance (ΔVO2/ΔWR and peak VO2/W) and the presence of CI (ΔHR/ΔWR), and using electrocardiogram for heart rate variability. RESULTS We originally divided the patients into three groups; Group I (ΔHR/ΔWR x100 <15) (N = 3), Group II (15≥, <60) (N = 28), Group III (>60) (N = 5). Since Group I and III were significantly smaller and older than Group II, we focused and divided into two groups; Group II CI (+), the PD patients with CI (15≤ ΔHR/ΔWR x100 <35), and Group II CI (-), those patients without that (35≤ ΔHR/ΔWR x100 <60). ΔVO2/ΔWR and peak VO2/W in CI (+) patients was lower than CI (-) (P = 0.022 and P = 0.096, respectively). HF power (parasympathetic activity) tends to be decreased, whereas LF/HF ratio (sympathetic activity) was increased in CI (+) patients as compared with CI (-). The UPDRS part II (off-on) of CI (+) patients was significantly higher than CI (-) (P = 0.023). CONCLUSIONS In PD patients, the difference between 'on' and 'off' in activities of daily living might be predicted by using ΔHR/ΔWR x100 obtained from CPET as an index.

Abstract
Background Mycobacterium abscessus frequently causes severe infections, yet its pathophysiological features and treatment regimens have not been established. Case Report We present five cases of severe pneumonia due to Mycobacterium abscessus infection in Japan. All cases were diabetic patients, with possible acceleration to pneumonia due to co-infection with other microorganisms. However, following a short period of hospitalization and combination therapy with intravenous imipenem/cilastatin and amikacin, all the cases were successfully treated as outpatients with oral clarithromycin and sitafloxacin. Conclusion M. abscessus infections can become severe in the presence of diabetes mellitus and co-infection with other chronic infectious organisms. Sitafloxacin might be a key drug in the treatment of M. abscessus infection in future.

Abstract
There is a concern that the spread of mutant strains of SARS-CoV-2 will increase the number of severe COVID-19 patients and weaken vaccine effectiveness in the world. The mutants of the spike region of SARS-CoV-2, such as N501Y, E484K, P681H, and deletion H69/V70 (del 69/70), were studied in 25 COVID-19 patients admitted from December 2020 to April 2021; there were no patients with N501Y and P681H, but nine patients had E484K alone. Their symptoms, laboratory data, and course of their disease were similar to those of the other patients with the non-mutant virus. One patient with del69/70 alone showed prolonged inflammation, viral excretion, and late exacerbation 18 days after onset. Del69/70 may be independently associated with evasion of immunity, as previously reported, and it is present in Japan.

Abstract
Contemporary cognitive models of depression propose that cognitive biases for negative information at the level of attention (attention biases; AB) and interpretation (interpretation biases; IB) increase depression risk by promoting maladaptive emotion regulation (ER). So far, empirical support testing interactions between these variables is restricted to non-clinical and clinical adult samples. The aim of the current study was to extend these findings to a sample of children and adolescents. This cross-sectional study included 109 children aged 9–14 years who completed behavioural measures of AB (passive-viewing task) and IB (scrambled sentences task) as well as self-report measures of ER and depressive symptoms. In order to maximize the variance in these outcomes we included participants with a clinical diagnosis of depression as well as non-depressed youth with an elevated familial risk of depression and non-depressed youth with a low familial risk of depression. Path model analysis indicated that all variables (AB, IB, adaptive and maladaptive ER) had a direct effect on depressive symptoms. IB and AB also had significant indirect effects on depressive symptoms via maladaptive and adaptive ER. These findings provide initial support for the role of ER as a mediator between cognitive biases and depressive symptoms and provide the foundations for future experimental and longitudinal studies. In contrast to studies in adult samples, both adaptive as well as maladaptive ER mediated the effect of cognitive biases on depressive symptoms. This suggests potentially developmental differences in the role of ER across the lifespan.

Abstract
Antigen-presenting cells express pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), which sense pathogen-associated molecular patterns from microorganisms and lead to the induction of inflammatory responses. C-type lectin receptors (CLRs), the representative PRRs, bind to microbial polysaccharides, among which Dectin-2 and Mincle recognize mannose-containing polysaccharides. Because influenza virus (IFV) hemagglutinin (HA) is rich in mannose polysaccharides, Dectin-2 or Mincle may contribute to the recognition of HA. In this study, we addressed the possible involvement of Dectin-2 and Mincle in the viral recognition and the initiation of cytokine production. Interleukin (IL)-12p40 and IL-6 production by bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BM-DCs) upon stimulation with HA was significantly reduced in Dectin-2 knockout (KO) mice compared to wild-type (WT) mice whereas there was no difference between WT mice and Mincle KO mice. BM-DCs that were treated with Syk inhibitor resulted in a significant reduction of cytokine production upon stimulation with HA. The treatment of BM-DCs with methyl-α-D-mannopyranoside (ManP) also led to a significant reduction in cytokine production by BM-DCs that were stimulated with HA, except for the A/H1N1pdm09 subtype. IL-12p40 and IL-6 synthesis by BM-DCs was completely diminished upon stimulation with HA treated with concanavalin A (ConA)-bound sepharose beads. Finally, GFP expression was detected in reporter cells that were transfected with the Dectin-2 gene, but not with the Mincle gene, when stimulated with HA derived from the A/H3N2 subtype. These data suggested that Dectin-2 may be a key molecule as the sensor for IFV to initiate the immune response and regulate the pathogenesis of IFV infection.

Abstract
The present study aimed to confirm the hypothesis that aquaporin-4 water channels (AQP4) control solute transition into the brain parenchyma using image analysis of gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) dissolved in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) on dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (dyMRI) in live rats. Ten male Wistar ST rats were included in the study. Whole-brain dyMRI was performed for approximately 120 min after intrathecal infusion of gadolinium tetraazacyclododecane tetraacetic acid (Gd-DOTA). TGN-020, a specific AQP4 inhibitor, was used to inhibit the function of AQP4 in one group of rats (TGN-020 group, n = 4). The dyMRI after Gd-DOTA infusion in the rat, who were not treated with TGN-020 (control group, n = 6) revealed marked contrast-enhancement over time based on the distribution of the GBCA in the lateral regions of the brain surface, the ventral regions, the regions adjacent to the subarachnoid space, and the deep subcortical region. In contrast, smaller signal enhancement of the same regions in the TGN-020 group indicated poor distribution of the GBCA, suggesting a physiological consequence of the AQP4 inhibition by TGN-020. In this study, a close relationship between the function of AQP4 and the solute dynamics in the CSF was revealed from the distribution pattern of GBCA visualized in dyMRI in the living rat brain by administration of AQP4-selective inhibitor. This finding suggests that AQP4 functions to drive a glymphatic influx to transition molecules dissolved in the CSF from the subarachnoid space into the extracellular space of the brain parenchyma.

Abstract
Background Youth depression is highly prevalent and is related to impairments in academic, social and behavioural functioning. Evidence-based treatments are available, but many young people do not respond or sufficiently recover with first-line options, and a significant proportion experience relapse. Consequently, there is clear scope to enhance intervention in this critical period of early-onset depression. Memory specificity training (MeST) is a low-intensity intervention for depression that targets reduced specificity when recalling memories of the past, a common cognitive vulnerability in depression. This randomised controlled trial will assess the efficacy of adding a computerised version of MeST (c-MeST) to usual care for youth depression. Methods/design Young people aged 15–25 years with a major depressive episode (MDE) will be recruited and randomised to have immediate access to the seven session online c-MeST program in addition to usual care, or to usual care and wait-list for c-MeST. The primary outcomes will be diagnostic status of an MDE and self-reported depressive symptoms assessed at baseline, 1-, 3- and 6-month intervals. Autobiographical memory specificity and other variables thought to contribute to the maintenance of reduced memory specificity and depression will be assessed as mediators of change. Discussion Online provision of c-MeST provides a simple, low-intensity option for targeting a cognitive vulnerability that predicts the persistence of depressive symptoms. If found to be efficacious as an adjunct to usual care for depressed youth, it could be suitable for broader roll-out, as c-MeST is highly accessible and implementation requires only minimal resources due to the online and automated nature of intervention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Characteristic of the cardinal symptom of anhedonia, people with clinical depression report lower levels of anticipatory pleasure. However, the psychological mechanisms underlying these deficits are poorly understood. This is the first study to assess whether, and to what extent, phenomenological characteristics of episodic future thinking for positive future events are associated with anticipatory pleasure among depressed individuals. METHODS Individuals with a Major Depressive Episode (MDE; N = 117) and without (N = 47) completed ratings scales for depressive symptoms and trait anticipatory and consummatory pleasure. They then provided descriptions of personally-relevant positive future events and rated them for phenomenological characteristics and state anticipatory pleasure. RESULTS Between-groups analysis showed that those with MDE reported lower trait anticipatory and consummatory pleasure. They also simulated future events with less specificity, less detail/vividness, less use of mental imagery, less use of first-person perspective, less plausibility/perceived likelihood of occurring, and reported less associated state anticipatory pleasure. In regression analyses in the depressed group, lower scores for detail/vividness, mental imagery, and personal significance all uniquely predicted lower state anticipatory pleasure. LIMITATIONS Cognitive functioning was not assessed, which may help clarify deficits that underpin these findings. History of previous depressive episodes in the comparison group were not assessed, which may mean the observed between-group effects are underestimated. CONCLUSIONS This study provides further evidence of deficits in episodic future thinking and anticipatory pleasure in depressed individuals. It also establishes links between particular characteristics of episodic future thinking and state anticipatory pleasure, and indicates cognitive targets that may be amenable to intervention in order to reduce anhedonia.

Abstract
In this retrospective analysis using the Transplant Registry Unified Management Program, we identified 145 patients with human herpesvirus (HHV)-6 encephalitis among 6593 recipients. The cumulative incidences of HHV-6 encephalitis at 100 days after transplantation in all patients, recipients of bone marrow or PBSCs and recipients of cord blood were 2.3%, 1.6% and 5.0%, respectively. Risk factors identified in multivariate analysis were male sex, type of transplanted cells (relative risk in cord blood transplantation, 11.09, P<0.001; relative risk in transplantation from HLA-mismatched unrelated donor, 9.48, P<0.001; vs transplantation from HLA-matched related donor) and GvHD prophylaxis by calcineurin inhibitor alone. At 100 days after transplantation, the overall survival rate was 58.3% and 80.5% among patients with and without HHV-6 encephalitis, respectively (P<0.001). Neuropsychological sequelae remained in 57% of 121 evaluated patients. With both foscarnet and ganciclovir, full-dose therapy (foscarnet ⩾180 mg/kg, ganciclovir ⩾10 mg/kg) was associated with better response rate (foscarnet, 93% vs 74%, P=0.044; ganciclovir, 84% vs 58%, P=0.047). HHV-6 encephalitis is not rare not only in cord blood transplant recipients but also in recipients of HLA-mismatched unrelated donors. In this study, development of HHV-6 encephalitis was associated with a poor survival rate, and neurological sequelae remained in many patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Noninvasive radiologic evaluation of glioma can facilitate correct diagnosis and detection of malignant transformation. Although positron-emission tomography is considered valuable in the care of patients with gliomas, (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose and (11)C-methionine have reportedly shown ambiguous results in terms of grading and prognostication. The present study compared the diagnostic and prognostic capabilities of diffusion tensor imaging, FDG, and (11)C-methionine PET in nonenhancing gliomas. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-five consecutive newly diagnosed, histologically confirmed nonenhancing gliomas that underwent both FDG and (11)C-methionine PET were retrospectively investigated (23 grade II and 12 grade III gliomas). Apparent diffusion coefficient, fractional anisotropy, and tumor-to-normal tissue ratios of both FDG and (11)C-methionine PET were compared between grade II and III gliomas. Prognostic values of these parameters were also tested by using progression-free survival. RESULTS Grade III gliomas showed significantly higher average tumor-to-normal tissue and maximum tumor2-to-normal tissue than grade II gliomas in (11)C-methionine (P = .013, P = .0017, respectively), but not in FDG-PET imaging. There was no significant difference in average ADC, minimum ADC, average fractional anisotropy, and maximum fractional anisotropy. (11)C-methionine PET maximum tumor-to-normal tissue ratio of 2.0 was most suitable for detecting grade III gliomas among nonenhancing gliomas (sensitivity, 83.3%; specificity, 73.9%). Among patients not receiving any adjuvant therapy, median progression-free survival was 64.2 ± 7.2 months in patients with maximum tumor-to-normal tissue ratio of <2.0 for (11)C-methionine PET and 18.6 ± 6.9 months in patients with maximum tumor-to-normal tissue ratio of >2.0 (P = .0044). CONCLUSIONS (11)C-methionine PET holds promise for World Health Organization grading and could offer a prognostic imaging biomarker for nonenhancing gliomas.

Abstract
The use of compact magnetic resonance (MR) systems for the neuroimaging of small animals is spreading. We investigated the potential of such systems in functional MR imaging (fMRI) of somatosensory cortex activity elicited by forepaw stimulation in medetomidine-sedated rats. Using a 1.5-tesla compact imager, we detected maximum activity with an electrophysiologically optimized frequency of 9 Hz in 3 appropriately sedated rats. With this compact system, we successfully mapped neural activity by combining optimum stimulation for a large hemodynamic response with appropriate anesthesia, thus demonstrating the utility of such systems in hemodynamic-based fMRI in preclinical and translational research.

Abstract
To elucidate the impact of pretransplant body mass index (BMI) on the clinical outcome, we performed a retrospective study with registry data including a total of 12 050 patients (age ⩾18 years) who received allogeneic hematopoietic SCT (HSCT) between 2000 and 2010. Patients were stratified as follows: BMI<18.5 kg/m(2), Underweight, n=1791; 18.5⩽BMI<25, Normal, n=8444; 25⩽BMI<30, Overweight, n=1591; BMI⩾30, Obese, n=224. The median age was 45 years (range, 18-77). A multivariate analysis showed that the risk of relapse was significantly higher in the underweight group and lower in the overweight and obese groups compared with the normal group (hazard ratio (HR), 1.16, 0.86, and 0.74, respectively). The risk of GVHD was significantly higher in the overweight group compared with the normal group. The risk of non-relapse mortality (NRM) was significantly higher in the overweight and obese group compared with the normal group (HR 1.19 and HR 1.43, respectively). The probability of OS was lower in the underweight group compared with the normal group (HR 1.10, P=0.018). In conclusion, pretransplant BMI affected the risk of relapse and NRM after allogeneic HSCT. Underweight was a risk factor for poor OS because of an increased risk of relapse. Obesity was a risk factor for NRM.

Abstract
This is the first successful report of a laparoscope-assisted Hassab's operation for esophagogastric varices after living donor liver transplantation (LDLT). A 35-year-old man underwent LDLT using a right lobe graft as an aid for primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) in 2005. Follow-up endoscopic and computed tomography (CT) examinations showed esophagogastric varices with splenomegaly in 2009 that increased (esophageal varices [EV]: locus superior [Ls], moderator enlarged, beady varices [F2], medium in number and intermediate between localized and circumferential red color signs [RC2]; gastric varices [GV]: extension from the cardiac orifice to the fornix [Lg-cf], moderator enlarged, beady varices [F2], absent red color signs [RC0]). A portal venous flow to the esophagogastric varices through a large left gastric vein was also confirmed. Preoperative Child-Pugh was grade B and score was 9. Because these esophagogastric varices had a high risk of variceal bleeding, we proceeded with a laparoscope-assisted Hassab's operation. Operative time was 464 minutes. Blood loss was 1660 mL. A graft liver biopsy was also performed and recurrence of PSC was confirmed histologically. It was suggested that portal hypertension and esophagogastric varices were caused by recurrence of PSC. Postoperative complications were massive ascites and enteritis. Both of them were treated successfully. This patient was discharged on postoperative day 43. Follow-up endoscopic study showed improvement in the esophagogastric varices (esophageal varices [EV]: locus superior [Ls], no varicose appearance [F0], absent red color signs [RC0], gastric varices [GV]: adjacent to the cardiac orifice [Lg-c], no varicose appearance [F0], absent red color signs [RC0]) at 6 months after the operation. We also confirmed the improvement of esophagogastric varices by serial examinations of CT.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of green tea on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of the β-blocker nadolol. Ten healthy volunteers received a single oral dose of 30 mg nadolol with green tea or water after repeated consumption of green tea (700 ml/day) or water for 14 days. Catechin concentrations in green tea and plasma were determined. Green tea markedly decreased the maximum plasma concentration (C(max)) and area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC(0-48)) of nadolol by 85.3% and 85.0%, respectively (P < 0.01), without altering renal clearance of nadolol. The effects of nadolol on systolic blood pressure were significantly reduced by green tea. [(3)H]-Nadolol uptake assays in human embryonic kidney 293 cells stably expressing the organic anion-transporting polypeptides OATP1A2 and OATP2B1 revealed that nadolol is a substrate of OATP1A2 (Michaelis constant (K(m)) = 84.3 μmol/l) but not of OATP2B1. Moreover, green tea significantly inhibited OATP1A2-mediated nadolol uptake (half-maximal inhibitory concentration, IC(50) = 1.36%). These results suggest that green tea reduces plasma concentrations of nadolol possibly in part by inhibition of OATP1A2-mediated uptake of nadolol in the intestine.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High-mobility group box chromosomal protein 1 (HMGB1) has recently been identified as an important mediator of various kinds of acute and chronic inflammation. A method for efficiently removing HMGB1 from the systemic circulation could be a promising therapy for HMGB1-mediated inflammatory diseases. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this study, we produced a new adsorbent material by chemically treating polystyrene fiber. We first determined whether the adsorbent material efficiently adsorbed HMGB1 in vitro using a bovine HMGB1 solution and a plasma sample from a swine model of acute liver failure. We then constructed a column by embedding fabric sheets of the newly developed fibers into a cartridge and tested the ability of the column to reduce plasma HMGB1 levels during a 4-hour extracorporeal hemoperfusion in a swine model of acute liver failure. RESULTS The in vitro adsorption test of the new fiber showed high performance for HMGB1 adsorption (96% adsorption in the bovine HMGB1 solution and 94% in the acute liver failure swine plasma, 2 h incubation at 37°C; p < 0.05 vs. incubation with no adsorbent). In the in vivo study, the ratio of the HMGB1 concentration at the outlet versus the inlet of the column was significantly lower in swine hemoperfused with the newly developed column (53 and 61% at the beginning and end of perfusion, respectively) than in those animals hemoperfused with the control column (94 and 93% at the beginning and end of perfusion, respectively; p < 0.05). Moreover, the normalized plasma level of HMGB1 was significantly lower during perfusion with the new column than with the control column (p < 0.05 at 1, 2, and 3 h after initiation of perfusion). CONCLUSION These data suggest that the newly developed column has the potential to effectively adsorb HMGB1 during hemoperfusion in swine.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Interleukin (IL)-33 is a novel member of the IL-1 cytokine family and a ligand for the orphan IL-1 family receptor ST2. The IL-33 induces T helper 2-type inflammatory responses and is considered to play a crucial rule in allergic inflammations, such as asthma and atopic dermatitis. However, the role of IL-33 and its receptor ST2 in allergic rhinitis remains unknown. OBJECTIVE We investigated expression of IL-33 and ST2 in the nasal epithelium of patients with allergic rhinitis and the mechanisms of the production of cytokines/chemokines induced by treatment with IL-33 using normal human nasal epithelial cells (HNECs) in vitro. METHODS Expression of IL-33 and ST2 in normal and allergic rhinitis nasal mucosa was evaluated by reverse transcription- and real-time polymerase chain reactions and immunohistochemical methods. The IL-33 in serum, and IL-8 and GM-CSF were measured by ELISA. For in vitro experiments, HNECs in primary culture were used. RESULTS The IL-33 levels in the sera of patients with allergic rhinitis were significantly higher than that in normal controls. Expression of IL-33 and ST2 was significantly elevated in the epithelium from patients with allergic rhinitis. The IL-33 mRNA in HNECs in vitro was significantly induced by treatment with IFN-γ and the toll-like receptor 9 ligand ODN2006. The IL-33-induced production of IL-8 and GM-CSF from HNECs in vitro was significantly suppressed by corticosteroid treatment and distinct signal transduction inhibitors of ERK, p38 MAPK, JNK, NF-κB and epidermal growth factor receptor. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE The IL-33 and its receptor ST2 play important roles in allergic rhinitis. The IL-33-mediated inflammatory responses via ST2 are regulated by distinct signalling pathways in HNECs and the IL-33/ST2 pathway may provide new therapeutic targets for allergic rhinitis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is a monocyte-derived late-acting inflammatory mediator, which is released in conditions such as shock, tissue injury and endotoxin-induced lethality. In this study, we determined the plasma and hepatic tissue levels of HMGB1 in patients with acute liver failure (ALF). PATIENTS AND METHODS We determined the plasma levels of HMGB1 and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) in 7 healthy volunteers (HVs), 40 patients with liver cirrhosis (LC), 37 patients with chronic hepatitis (CH), 18 patients with severe acute hepatitis (AH), and 14 patients with fulminant hepatitis (FH). The 14 patients with FH were divided into two subgroups depending upon the history of plasma exchange (PE) before their plasma sample collection. The hepatic levels of HMGB1 were measured in tissue samples from 3 patients with FH who underwent living-donor liver transplantation and from 3 healthy living donors. Hepatic tissue samples were also subjected to immunohistochemical examination for HMGB1. RESULTS The plasma levels of HMGB1 (ng/ml) were higher in patients with liver diseases, especially in FH patients with no history of PE, than in HVs (0.3 ± 0.3 in HVs, 4.0 ± 2.0 in LC, 5.2 ± 2.6 in CH, 8.6 ± 4.8 in severe AH, 7.8 ± 2.7 in FH with a history of PE, and 12.5 ± 2.6 in FH with no history of PE, p < 0.05 in each comparison). There was a strong and statistically significant relationship between the mean plasma HMGB1 level and the logarithm of the mean AST level (R = 0.900, p < 0.05). The hepatic tissue levels of HMGB1 (ng/mg tissue protein) were lower in patients with FH than in healthy donors (539 ± 116 in FH vs. 874 ± 81 in healthy donors, p < 0.05). Immunohistochemical staining for HMGB1 was strong and clear in the nuclei of hepatocytes in liver sections from healthy donors, but little staining in either nuclei or cytoplasm was evident in specimens from patients with FH. CONCLUSION We confirmed that plasma HMGB1 levels were increased in patients with ALF. Based on a comparison between HMGB1 contents in normal and ALF livers, it is very likely that HMGB1 is released from injured liver tissue.

Abstract
FeRh thin films were irradiated with a 10 MeV iodine ion microbeam to produce micrometre-scale ferromagnetic microstructures by modifying the local magnetic character from antiferromagnetism to ferromagnetism using ion-microbeam irradiation. Two-dimensional magnetic dot arrays of dimensions ∼2 µm × 4 µm as well as 10 µm × 10 µm were successfully produced on the FeRh surface, which was confirmed by magnetic force microscopy (MFM). The results of photoemission electron microscopy (PEEM) combined with X-ray magnetic circular dichroism reveal that the easy axis of the magnetization of the ion-beam-irradiated ferromagnetism in the FeRh thin films lies in the film planes along the <001> direction of the MgO substrates.

Abstract
AIMS The study aimed to combine a metagenomics approach with complementary genetics to identify novel bacterial genes with orthologous functions, with the identification of novel RNase H genes as a test case. METHODS AND RESULTS A metagenomic DNA library was prepared from leaf-and-branch compost and used to screen for the RNase H genes by their abilities to complement the temperature-sensitive growth phenotype of the rnhA mutant Escherichia coli strain MIC3001. Determination of the nucleotide sequences of the cloned DNA fragments allowed us to identify 12 different genes encoding type 1 RNases H. Eleven of them encode novel RNases H, which show 40-72% amino acid sequence identities to those available from database. One of them lacks a typical DEDD/E active-site motif, which is almost fully conserved in various RNases H. CONCLUSIONS Functional screening of environmental DNA without cultivation of microbes is a useful procedure to isolate novel RNase H genes. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY One of the identified RNase H genes had no sequence similarity to a previously assumed conserved motif, suggesting multiple catalytic mechanisms exist. This test case illustrates that metagenomics combined with complementary genetics can identify novel genes that are orthologous without sequence similarity to those from cultivated bacteria.

Abstract
Fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) is a non-atheromatous, non-inflammatory, multifocal segmental angiopathy. FMD is the most common cause of pediatric renovascular hypertension. Aneurysmal formation of the main renal artery and distal branches is a rare complication of FMD in infancy. We report an 8-month-old boy with FMD presenting with shock caused by sudden renal hemorrhage that necessitated removal of one kidney. A diagnosis of renovascular hypertension resulting from intimal type FMD with aneurysmal formation was made on the basis of the presence of hypertension, elevation of PRA and aldosterone activity, pathological findings and the results of renal angiography. Our findings suggest that it is therefore necessary to consider FMD with aneurysmal formation as a possible cause of hypertension and renal hemorrhage in infants.
