Abstract
Placental dysfunction can disrupt pregnancy. However, few studies have assessed the effects of chemical-induced toxicity on placental function. Here, we examined the effects of valproic acid (VPA) as a model chemical on production of hormones and on glucose uptake in human choriocarcinoma cell line BeWo. Cells were treated with forskolin to differentiate into syncytiotrophoblasts, which were then treated with VPA for 72 hr. Real-time RT-PCR analysis showed that VPA significantly increased the mRNA expression of chorionic gonadotropin β (CGB), a hormone that is produced by the placenta in the first trimester of pregnancy, relative to that in the forskolin-only group. It also suppressed the increase in intracellular glucose uptake and GLUT1 level observed in the forskolin-only group. RNA-seq analysis and pathway database analysis revealed that VPA consistently decreased the level of HIF-1α protein and expression of its downstream target genes HK2 and ADM in the hypoxia pathway. Cobalt chloride, a HIF-1α inducer, inhibited CGB upregulation in VPA-treated cells and rescued VPA-induced suppression of glucose uptake and GLUT1 level. Thus, HIF-1α-mediated elevation of CGB expression and suppression of glucose uptake by VPA is a novel mechanism of placental dysfunction.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to examine infantile outcomes at 3 years of age with selective fetal growth restriction (sFGR) Types II and III with isolated oligohydramnios who underwent fetoscopic laser photocoagulation (FLP). METHODS This multicenter prospective cohort study included monochorionic diamniotic twins who underwent FLP for sFGR between 16 and 25 weeks of gestation. The indication for performing FLP was in cases of sFGR Type II or III with oligohydramnios, where the maximal vertical pocket was ≤2 cm among twins with FGR. This was done in the absence of a typical twin-twin transfusion syndrome diagnosis. The primary outcome was the intact survival (IS) rate of infants at the corrected age of 40 weeks and 3 years. IS at the corrected age of 40 weeks was defined as survival without grade III or IV intraventricular hemorrhage or cystic periventricular leukomalacia, and IS at 3 years of age was defined as survival without neurodevelopmental morbidity, including cerebral palsy, neurodevelopmental impairment with a total developmental quotient of ≤70, bilateral deafness, or bilateral blindness. RESULTS Among 45 patients with sFGR, 30 (66.7%) were classified as having Type II and 15 (33.3%) as Type III sFGR. The prevalence of IS at the corrected age of 40 weeks was 51.1% (n=23) in FGR twins and 95.5% (n=42) in larger twins. The prevalence of IS at 3 years of age was 46.7% (n=21) in FGR twins and 86.4% (n=38) in larger twins. Among the 24 FGR twins who were not diagnosed with IS at 3 years of age, 91.7% (22 of 24 cases) suffered fetal or infantile demise other than miscarriage and neurodevelopmental impairment. All larger twins who were not diagnosed with IS at 3 years of age (n=6, 13.6%) had neurological morbidity, in addition to one case of miscarriage. CONCLUSIONS FGR twins and larger twins, when subjected to FLP due to sFGR coupled with umbilical artery Doppler abnormalities and isolated oligohydramnios, exhibit low rates of neurological morbidity and low mortality, respectively. Therefore, FLP for Type II or III sFGR with oligohydramnios may be a feasible and preferable management option. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the outcome of monochorionic diamniotic (MCDA) twins complicated by Type-II selective fetal growth restriction (sFGR) who underwent fetoscopic laser photocoagulation and to validate a previously proposed subclassification system for Type-II sFGR in a large multicenter cohort. METHODS This retrospective multicenter cohort study included all MCDA twins complicated by Type-II sFGR who underwent laser photocoagulation of placental anastomoses at four large tertiary fetal-care centers between 2006 and 2020. Cases were subclassified according to a recently proposed system based on Doppler evaluation of the ductus venosus (DV) and middle cerebral artery (MCA) into Type-IIA (normal DV flow and MCA peak systolic velocity (PSV) of the growth-restricted fetus) or Type-IIB (absent or reversed flow in the DV during atrial contraction and/or MCA-PSV ≥ 1.5 multiples of the median of the growth-restricted fetus). Demographic characteristics and pregnancy outcomes were compared between the groups. Data are presented as mean ± SD or n (%) as appropriate. P-values < 0.05 were considered statistically significant. RESULTS A total of 98 patients with MCDA twins met our inclusion criteria, with 56 subclassified as Type IIA and 42 as Type IIB. Demographic characteristics were similar between the groups; however, Type-IIB cases had a significantly earlier gestational age at diagnosis and at laser surgery, as well as larger intertwin estimated fetal weight discordance, which may be a reflection of disease severity. Postnatal survival of the growth-restricted fetus to 30 days of age was significantly lower in Type-IIB compared to Type-IIA cases (23.8% vs 46.4%; P = 0.034). CONCLUSIONS In MCDA twins complicated by Type-II sFGR and treated with laser photocoagulation of placental anastomoses, preoperative Doppler assessment of the DV and MCA helped identify a subset of patients at increased risk of demise of the growth-restricted fetus following intervention. This study provides valuable information for guiding surgical management and patient counseling. © 2023 International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatectomy with extrahepatic bile duct resection is associated with a high risk of posthepatectomy liver failure (PHLF). However, the utility of the remnant liver volume (RLV) in cholangiocarcinoma has not been studied intensively. METHODS Patients who underwent major hepatectomy with extrahepatic bile duct resection between 2002 and 2018 were reviewed. The RLV was divided by body surface area (BSA) to normalize individual physical differences. Risk factors for clinically relevant PHLF were evaluated with special reference to the RLV/BSA. RESULTS A total of 289 patients were included. The optimal cut-off value for RLV/BSA was determined to be 300 ml/m2. Thirty-two patients (11.1 per cent) developed PHLF. PHLF was more frequent in patients with an RLV/BSA below 300 ml/m2 than in those with a value of 300 ml/m2 or greater: 19 of 87 (22 per cent) versus 13 of 202 (6.4 per cent) (P < 0.001). In multivariable analysis, RLV/BSA below 300 ml/m2 (P = 0.013), future liver remnant plasma clearance rate of indocyanine green less than 0.075 (P = 0.031), and serum albumin level below 3.5 g/dl (P = 0.015) were identified as independent risk factors for PHLF. Based on these risk factors, patients were classified into three subgroups with low (no factors), moderate (1-2 factors), and high (3 factors) risk of PHLF, with PHLF rates of 1.8, 14.8 and 63 per cent respectively (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION An RLV/BSA of 300 ml/m2 is a simple predictor of PHLF in patients undergoing hepatectomy with extrahepatic bile duct resection.

Abstract
Lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) regulates gene expression by affecting histone modifications and is a promising target for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with specific genetic abnormalities. Novel LSD1 inhibitors, NCD25 and NCD38, inhibited growth of MLL-AF9 leukemia as well as erythroleukemia, megakaryoblastic leukemia and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDSs) overt leukemia cells in the concentration range that normal hematopoiesis was spared. NCD25 and NCD38 invoked the myeloid development programs, hindered the MDS and AML oncogenic programs, and commonly upregulated 62 genes in several leukemia cells. NCD38 elevated H3K27ac level on enhancers of these LSD1 signature genes and newly activated ~500 super-enhancers. Upregulated genes with super-enhancer activation in erythroleukemia cells were enriched in leukocyte differentiation. Eleven genes including GFI1 and ERG, but not CEBPA, were identified as the LSD1 signature with super-enhancer activation. Super-enhancers of these genes were activated prior to induction of the transcripts and myeloid differentiation. Depletion of GFI1 attenuated myeloid differentiation by NCD38. Finally, a single administration of NCD38 causes the in vivo eradication of primary MDS-related leukemia cells with a complex karyotype. Together, NCD38 derepresses super-enhancers of hematopoietic regulators that are silenced abnormally by LSD1, attenuates leukemogenic programs and consequently exerts anti-leukemic effect against MDS-related leukemia with adverse outcome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate whether the transperineal sonographic (TPS) parameters angle of progression (AoP) and midline angle (MLA) can predict the time remaining in the second stage of labor. METHODS We evaluated prospectively women with a singleton pregnancy in cephalic presentation at term between October 2013 and September 2014. TPS volumes were obtained immediately after confirmation by digital vaginal examination of a fully dilated cervix. AoP and MLA were measured offline by analyzing the ultrasound volumes. Progression of labor was evaluated every hour during the second stage. The associations of AoP and MLA with the interval between TPS assessment and delivery were evaluated using multivariable Cox proportional hazards analyses in nulliparous and parous women separately. RESULTS A total of 557 women were evaluated. An AoP ≥ 160° (adjusted hazard ratio (aHR), 2.52 (95% CI, 1.98-3.19)) and MLA ≤ 10° (aHR, 1.79 (95% CI, 1.35-2.34)) in nulliparous women and an AoP ≥ 150° (aHR, 1.86 (95% CI, 1.34-2.57)) and MLA ≤ 20° (aHR, 1.69 (95% CI, 1.21-2.34)) in parous women were significantly associated with the remaining time in labor. The positive/negative likelihood ratios of AoP, MLA, clinical station (fetal head descent as observed by digital examination) and clinical rotation (fetal head rotation as observed by digital examination) at these cut-off points were 3.6/0.6, 2.0/0.6, 1.6/0.6 and 1.6/0.8, respectively, in nulliparous women, and 2.4/0.6, 1.3/0.7, 7.6/0.5 and 5.2/0.7, respectively, in parous women. CONCLUSION TPS assessment of AoP and MLA in the second stage of labor was useful for predicting the time remaining in labor and had higher predictive value than did digital vaginal examination in nulliparous women.

Abstract
Porcine dentin sialophosphoprotein (DSPP), the most abundant noncollagenous protein in dentin, is critical for proper mineralization of tooth dentin. DSPP is processed by proteases into 3 major domains: dentin sialoprotein (DSP), dentin glycoprotein (DGP), and dentin phosphoprotein (DPP). There are at least 2 mRNA variants expressed from the Dspp gene: one encodes the full-length DSPP protein (DSP+DGP+DPP); the other encodes only DSP. The shorter transcript is generated through the use of a polyadenylation signal within intron 4, immediately following the DSP coding region (DGP and DPP are encoded by exon 5). We fractionated DSPP-derived proteins from the dental pulp of developing porcine incisors using heparin chromatography. DSP was identified, but little DPP could be detected in any fractions. BMP-1 digestion of DSPP-derived proteins extracted from dental pulp did not generate new DPP bands on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (indicating an absence of intact DSPP), although the results suggested another BMP-1 cleavage site within DSP. We further purified DSPP-derived protein by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. Its amino acid composition was similar to DSP. Expression of the full-length Dspp mRNA by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction analysis was significantly higher in odontoblasts than in pulp, while expression of the DSP-only mRNA was almost equal in odontoblasts and in the body of the pulp. Expression of the full-length Dspp mRNA was also significantly higher than the expression of DSP-only mRNA in odontoblasts. Both the full-length and the DSP-only Dspp mRNA showed only trace expression in the pulp tip. We conclude that use of the 3' polyadenylation signal in exon 5 predominates in fully differentiated odontoblasts, while both polyadenylation signals are used throughout odontoblast differentiation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate neonatal outcomes and clinical characteristics of monochorionic diamniotic (MCDA) twins with a large intertwin hemoglobin (Hb) difference at birth. METHODS This was a retrospective cohort study of MCDA twin gestations delivered at Osaka Medical Center and Research Institute for Maternal and Child Health between 2003 and 2012. Cases of pregnancy termination, acardiac twins or intrauterine death were excluded. A large intertwin Hb difference at birth was defined as > 8.0 g/dL according to the postnatal criteria for twin anemia-polycythemia sequence (TAPS). The intertwin reticulocyte count ratio (RCR) was calculated by dividing the reticulocyte count of the anemic twin by that of the polycythemic twin. Cases with Hb differences were divided into two groups according to the RCR, TAPS when the RCR was > 1.7 and acute fetofetal hemorrhage (AFFH) when the RCR was ≤ 1.7. Neonatal outcomes were compared between the TAPS and AFFH groups. RESULTS During the study period, 432 MCDA twin pregnancies of a total of 532 born at our hospital were analyzed. There were 12 (2.8%) cases of a large intertwin Hb difference. The median gestational age at birth of these cases was 34 (range, 23-38) weeks, and all were delivered by Cesarean section. There were seven (1.6%) cases of TAPS and five (1.2%) of AFFH. The neonatal survival rate was 91.7%; in one pair of twins with TAPS neonatal death occurred. All (100%) cases with TAPS and two (40%) with AFFH required blood transfusion or partial-exchange transfusion for at least one infant. CONCLUSIONS Although the incidence of TAPS and AFFH may be low in MCDA twins, many affected neonates required treatment for hematological abnormalities. Delivery of MCDA twins via Cesarean section does not appear to prevent AFFH, despite the absence of labor.

Abstract
AIMS The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of tea catechin epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg) on established biofilms and biofilm formation by Porphyromonas gingivalis, a major pathogen of periodontal disease. METHODS AND RESULTS Biofilm cell survival was measured using adenosine triphosphate (ATP) bioluminescence. In the presence of EGCg, the ATP level in cells of established biofilms was significantly decreased compared to the controls (P < 0·0001). Transmission electron microscopy revealed that EGCg damaged the cell membrane and cell wall of P. gingivalis. Confocal laser-scanning microscopy revealed that the proportion of dead cells was higher in biofilms treated with EGCg. Moreover, the effects of subminimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of EGCg on P. gingivalis biofilm formation were dose-dependent (P < 0·0001). CONCLUSION Our results suggest that EGCg destroys established P. gingivalis biofilms and inhibits biofilm formation. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY Development of chemical control agents against oral biofilms is necessary, because oral biofilms can be only removed using mechanical debridement. This article indicates that EGCg may represent a novel antibiofilm agent that prevents infections involving bacterial biofilms such as periodontitis.

Abstract
Thoroughbred horses are seasonal mating animals, and their foals are born yearly in spring seasons. In northern regions or countries, the foals generally show a typical seasonal compensatory growth pattern, where their growth rate declines in winter and increases in the next spring. In this study, a new empirical approach is proposed to adjust for this compensatory growth when growth curve equations are estimated, by using BW of Japanese Thoroughbred colts and fillies raised in Hidaka, Hokkaido. Based on the traditional Richards growth curve equation, new growth curve equations were developed and fit to the weight-age data. The foals generally experience 2 major winter seasons before their debut in horseracing. The new equations had sigmoid subfunctions that can empirically adjust the first and second year compensatory growths, combined with the Richards biological parameter responsible for the maturity of animals. The unknown parameters included in the equations were estimated by SAS NLMIXED procedure. The goodness-of-fit was examined by using several indices of goodness-of-fit (i.e., Akaike's information criterion, Bayesian information criterion, -2 log likelihood, and residual sum of squares) for the multiple applications of the subfunctions. The indices indicated the best fit of the new equations including both subfunctions for the first and second compensatory growths to the weight-age data. The shapes of the growth curves were improved during the periods of compensatory growth. The proposed method is one of the useful approaches for adjusting multiple seasonal compensatory growths in growth curve estimations of Thoroughbreds and for the management of young horses during the compensatory periods.

Abstract
The effects of sugar alcohols such as erythritol, xylitol, and sorbitol on periodontopathic biofilm are poorly understood, though they have often been reported to be non-cariogenic sweeteners. In the present study, we evaluated the efficacy of sugar alcohols for inhibiting periodontopathic biofilm formation using a heterotypic biofilm model composed of an oral inhabitant Streptococcus gordonii and a periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis. Confocal microscopic observations showed that the most effective reagent to reduce P. gingivalis accumulation onto an S. gordonii substratum was erythritol, as compared with xylitol and sorbitol. In addition, erythritol moderately suppressed S. gordonii monotypic biofilm formation. To examine the inhibitory effects of erythritol, we analyzed the metabolomic profiles of erythritol-treated P. gingivalis and S. gordonii cells. Metabolome analyses using capillary electrophoresis time-of-flight mass spectrometry revealed that a number of nucleic intermediates and constituents of the extracellular matrix, such as nucleotide sugars, were decreased by erythritol in a dose-dependent manner. Next, comparative analyses of metabolites of erythritol- and sorbitol-treated cells were performed using both organisms to determine the erythritol-specific effects. In P. gingivalis, all detected dipeptides, including Glu-Glu, Ser-Glu, Tyr-Glu, Ala-Ala and Thr-Asp, were significantly decreased by erythritol, whereas they tended to be increased by sorbitol. Meanwhile, sorbitol promoted trehalose 6-phosphate accumulation in S. gordonii cells. These results suggest that erythritol has inhibitory effects on dual species biofilm development via several pathways, including suppression of growth resulting from DNA and RNA depletion, attenuated extracellular matrix production, and alterations of dipeptide acquisition and amino acid metabolism.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A heterotopic pregnancy (HP) is an extremely rare disease that represents the simultaneous occurrence of two or more implantation sites in the uterus and extrauterus. Early diagnosis of HP is difficult because of the presence of an intrauterine pregnancy (IUP). In most cases, a precise diagnosis was made after symptoms develop through the rupture or bleeding of the ectopic pregnancy (EP). The authors present a case that was successfully diagnosed as an undemonstrative HP. CASE A 24-year-old multiparous woman became pregnant after taking clomiphene citrate. At ten weeks of pregnancy, an ultrasonography revealed gestational sacs containing fetuses in the uterus and the right adnexal region, respectively. The patient was diagnosed as having a HP and an emergency right tubal resectomy was performed. The IUP progressed normally and the fetus was delivered at 37 weeks of pregnancy. DISCUSSION Even if a gestational sac can be confirmed in the uterus, a careful ultrasonographic examination should always be considered to determine the presence of a concurrent extrauterine pregnancy.

Abstract
A 3-year-old female shih tzu was presented with a white to dark red mass arising from the gingiva. Because of the rapid and invasive growth of the mass, the dog was humanely destroyed. Microscopically, round to polygonal anaplastic cells with strongly eosinophilic cytoplasm grew in an alveolar pattern separated by fibrous stroma. Mitotic figures were numerous. Multinucleated cells and 'strap cells' were observed, but cross striation and glycogen accumulation were absent. Immunohistochemically, the tumour cells were positive for vimentin, desmin, muscle-specific actin and MyoD1, and a small number of tumour cells were positive for α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA). Based on the morphological and immunohistochemical features, the gingival mass was diagnosed as alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma accompanied by α-SMA-positive immature myogenic cells.

Abstract
The amygdala and serotonergic innervations thereunto are considered to cooperatively modulate affective behaviors. By whole-cell recording, the present study examined effects of serotonin (5-HT) on synaptic transmission in the rat basolateral amygdala (BLA) complex, which is the amygdalar entrance for sensory information. Application of 5-HT-attenuated excitatory postsynaptic currents at synapses from the lateral amygdala (LA) to the BLA proper, and also at synapses from putative thalamic afferents to LA principal neurons, both depending on 5-HT(2) receptors. This reduction of synaptic responses was confirmed in the BLA under current clamp. In the LA, by contrast, synaptic potentials were not reduced, but enhanced by 5-HT. With 5-HT bath-applied, a prolonged depolarization was induced in LA neurons by strong synaptic stimulation, which appears similar to a slow after-depolarization (sADP) induced by injecting depolarizing currents. Occurrence of such current-induced sADP was confirmed in LA neurons. Both the synaptically-activated prolonged depolarization and the current-induced sADPs depended on 5-HT(2) receptor activation and postsynaptic calcium increase, suggesting that the same postsynaptic intrinsic mechanisms are involved. Reduction of potassium currents was identified as a major ionic mechanism for this sADPs. We thus revealed that 5-HT usually reduces overall synaptic transmission in the whole BLA complex, but enables sADPs to occur, thereby increasing synaptic responsiveness of LA neurons in a positive feedback manner. With this duality of 5-HT actions in operation, a weak input to the BLA complex would be usually eliminated, but could be selected were it associated with sufficiently large depolarization.

Abstract
A 10-year-old female American shorthair cat was presented for evaluation of weight loss. An intra-abdominal mass was found on ultrasonography and laparotomy was performed. The mass was located in the left uterine horn and further masses were found in the pancreas, greater omentum and diaphragm. Microscopical examination revealed that the pancreatic mass had epithelial and mesenchymal components, which on immunohistochemistry expressed cytokeratin and vimentin, respectively. In addition, some spindle cells expressed vimentin and E-cadherin, which might suggest epithelial to mesenchymal transition. In contrast, the uterine, omental and diaphragmatic masses had only mesenchymal composition. The pancreatic lesion is proposed to be a primary carcinosarcoma with metastasis of only the mesenchymal component to distant sites. This the first report of pancreatic carcinosarcoma in a cat.

Abstract
The endopiriform nucleus (EPN) is a large group of multipolar cells located in the depth of the piriform cortex (PC). Although many studies have suggested that the EPN plays a role in temporal lobe epilepsy, the normal function of the EPN remains to be elucidated. By using optical imaging of coronal brain slice preparations with voltage-sensitive dye, we found signal propagation from the PC or gustatory cortex (GC) to the EPN in normal medium. In our previous research, we failed to elicit a reliable signal reproducibly in the EPN by single stimulation either to the PC or GC. In our current research, we found that a double-pulse stimulation to either the PC or GC (interpulse interval: 20-100 ms) induced robust signal propagation to the EPN through excitation in the agranular division of the insular cortex (AI), with further extension to the claustrum. Finally, double site paired-pulse stimulation to the PC and GC also evoked excitation in the AI, claustrum, and EPN. These results suggest that the EPN has dual roles: 1) further processing of modality-specific olfactory and gustatory information from the PC and GC, respectively and 2) synergistic integration of PC-derived olfactory information and GC-derived gustatory information.

Abstract
A steady shear flow can drive supercooled liquids into a non-equilibrium state. Using molecular dynamics simulations under steady shear flow superimposed with oscillatory shear strain for a probe, non-equilibrium mechanical responses are studied for a model supercooled liquid composed of binary soft spheres. We found that even in the strongly sheared situation, the supercooled liquid exhibits surprisingly isotropic responses to oscillating shear strains applied in three different components of the strain tensor. Based on this isotropic feature, we successfully constructed a simple two-mode Maxwell model that can capture the key features of the storage and loss moduli, even for highly non-equilibrium state. Furthermore, we examined the correlation functions of the shear stress fluctuations, which also exhibit isotropic relaxation behaviors in the sheared non-equilibrium situation. In contrast to the isotropic features, the supercooled liquid additionally demonstrates anisotropies in both its responses and its correlations to the shear stress fluctuations. Using the constitutive equation (a two-mode Maxwell model), we demonstrated that the anisotropic responses are caused by the coupling between the oscillating strain and the driving shear flow. Due to these anisotropic responses and fluctuations, the violation of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem (FDT) is distinct for different components. We measured the magnitude of this violation in terms of the effective temperature. It was demonstrated that the effective temperature is notably different between different components, which indicates that a simple scalar mapping, such as the concept of an effective temperature, oversimplifies the true nature of supercooled liquids under shear flow. An understanding of the mechanism of isotropies and anisotropies in the responses and fluctuations will lead to a better appreciation of these violations of the FDT, as well as certain consequent modifications to the concept of an effective temperature.
