Abstract
BACKGROUND Trifluridine/tipiracil (TAS-102) is an oral anticancer drug with adequate efficacy in unresectable colorectal cancer, but frequently also induces chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV). To investigate the occurrence of CINV and antiemetic therapy in patients with colorectal cancer treated with TAS-102 (JASCC-CINV 2001). METHODS We conducted a multicenter, prospective, observational study in patients with colorectal cancer who received TAS-102 without dose reduction for the first time. Primary endpoint was the incidence of vomiting during the overall period. Secondary endpoints were the incidence of nausea, significant nausea, anorexia, other adverse events (constipation, diarrhea, insomnia, fatigue, dysgeusia) and patient satisfaction. Patient diaries were used for primary and secondary endpoints. All adverse events were subjectively assessed using PRO-CTCAE ver 1.0. and CTCAE ver 5.0. RESULTS Data from 100 of the 119 enrolled patients were analyzed. The incidence of vomiting, nausea, and significant nausea was 13%, 67%, and 36%, respectively. The incidence of vomiting in patients with and without prophylactic antiemetic therapy were 20.8% and 10.5%, respectively. Prophylactic antiemetics were given to 24% of patients, of whom 70% received D2 antagonists. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards analysis showed that experience of CINV in previous treatment tended to be associated with vomiting (hazard ratio [HR]: 7.13, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.87-58.5, P = 0.07), whereas prophylactic antiemetic administration was not (HR: 1.61, 95 CI: 0.50-5.21, P = 0.43). With regard to patient satisfaction, the proportion of patients who were "very satisfied," "satisfied," "slightly satisfied" or "somewhat satisfied" was 81.8%. CONCLUSIONS The low incidence of vomiting and high patient satisfaction suggest that TAS-102 does not require the use of uniform prophylactic antiemetic treatments. However, patients with the experience of CINV in previous treatment might require prophylactic antiemetic treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The cancer stem cell theory proposes that tumor formation in vivo is driven only by specific tumor-initiating cells having stemness; however, clinical trials conducted to test drugs that target the tumor stemness provided unsatisfactory results thus far. Recent studies showed clear involvement of immunity in tumors; however, the requirements of tumor-initiation followed by stable growth in immunocompetent individuals remain largely unknown. METHODS To clarify this, we used two similarly induced glioblastoma lines, 8B and 9G. They were both established by overexpression of an oncogenic H-RasL61 in p53-deficient neural stem cells. In immunocompromised animals in an orthotopic transplantation model using 1000 cells, both show tumor-forming potential. On the other hand, although in immunocompetent animals, 8B shows similar tumor-forming potential but that of 9G's are very poor. This suggests that 8B cells are tumor-initiating cells in immunocompetent animals. Therefore, we hypothesized that the differences in the interaction properties of 8B and 9G with immune cells could be used to identify the factors responsible for its tumor forming potential in immunocompetent animals and performed analysis. RESULTS Different from 9G, 8B cells induced senescence-like state of macrophages around tumors. We investigated the senescence-inducing factor of macrophages by 8B cells and found that it was interleukin 6. Such senescence-like macrophages produced Arginase-1, an immunosuppressive molecule known to contribute to T-cell hyporesponsiveness. The senescence-like macrophages highly expressed CD38, a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) glycohydrolase associated with NAD shortage in senescent cells. The addition of nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), an NAD precursor, in vitro inhibited to the induction of macrophage senescence-like phenotype and inhibited Arginase-1 expression resulting in retaining T-cell function. Moreover, exogenous in vivo administration of NMN after tumor inoculation inhibited tumor-initiation followed by stable growth in the immunocompetent mouse tumor model. CONCLUSIONS We identified one of the requirements for tumor-initiating cells in immunocompetent animals. In addition, we have shown that tumor growth can be inhibited by externally administered NMN against macrophage senescence-like state that occurs in the very early stages of tumor-initiating cell development. This therapy targeting the immunosuppressive environment formed by macrophage senescence-like state is expected to be a novel promising cancer therapeutic strategy.

Abstract
Recent human decedent model studies1,2 and compassionate xenograft use3 have explored the promise of porcine organs for human transplantation. To proceed to human studies, a clinically ready porcine donor must be engineered and its xenograft successfully tested in nonhuman primates. Here we describe the design, creation and long-term life-supporting function of kidney grafts from a genetically engineered porcine donor transplanted into a cynomolgus monkey model. The porcine donor was engineered to carry 69 genomic edits, eliminating glycan antigens, overexpressing human transgenes and inactivating porcine endogenous retroviruses. In vitro functional analyses showed that the edited kidney endothelial cells modulated inflammation to an extent that was indistinguishable from that of human endothelial cells, suggesting that these edited cells acquired a high level of human immune compatibility. When transplanted into cynomolgus monkeys, the kidneys with three glycan antigen knockouts alone experienced poor graft survival, whereas those with glycan antigen knockouts and human transgene expression demonstrated significantly longer survival time, suggesting the benefit of human transgene expression in vivo. These results show that preclinical studies of renal xenotransplantation could be successfully conducted in nonhuman primates and bring us closer to clinical trials of genetically engineered porcine renal grafts.

Abstract
Objective: This study aimed to clarify the features and causes of dependent edema (DE) in the legs of patients in geriatrics. Patients and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 224 patients with DE, aged ≥65 years, who visited our clinic from April 2009-March 2022. DE was defined as bilateral leg edema in patients without known systemic edemagenic conditions, venous insufficiency confirmed by duplex venous scanning, or a cancer treatment history in the pelvic/inguinal lesions. Results: The median patient age was 77 years (range: 65-94 years), where 74% were female. Overall, 198 patients (88%) had gait disturbances caused mainly by musculoskeletal disorders, but 58 (26%) walked without aid. Compared with patients with DE only (N=129), patients with DE and venous stasis-related skin lesions (N=95) included a larger number of those with obesity than did those with DE only (26% vs. 14%, p=0.02). Conclusion: The primary cause of DE in older patients was the sedentary lifestyle secondary to aging and gait disturbance, not solely because of reduced leg function. The complications of obesity are associated with increased venous stasis-related skin lesions.

Abstract
In transplantation using allogeneic induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), strategies focused on major histocompatibility complexes were adopted to avoid immune rejection. We showed that minor antigen mismatches are a risk factor for graft rejection, indicating that immune regulation remains one of the most important issues. In organ transplantation, it has been known that mixed chimerism using donor-derived hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) can induce donor-specific tolerance. However, it is unclear whether iPSC-derived HSPCs (iHSPCs) can induce allograft tolerance. We showed that 2 hematopoietic transcription factors, Hoxb4 and Lhx2, can efficiently expand iHSPCs with a c-Kit+Sca-1+Lineage- phenotype, which possesses long-term hematopoietic repopulating potential. We also demonstrated that these iHSPCs can form hematopoietic chimeras in allogeneic recipients and induce allograft tolerance in murine skin and iPSC transplantation. With mechanistic analyses, both central and peripheral mechanisms were suggested. We demonstrated the basic concept of tolerance induction using iHSPCs in allogeneic iPSC-based transplantation.

Abstract
The blockade of the CD154-CD40 pathway with anti-CD154 monoclonal antibody has been a promising immunomodulatory approach to prevent allograft rejection. However, clinical trials of immunoglobulin G1 antibodies targeting this pathway revealed thrombogenic properties, which were subsequently shown to be mediated by crystallizable fragment (Fc)-gamma receptor IIa-dependent platelet activation. To prevent thromboembolic complications, an immunoglobulin G4 anti-CD154 monoclonal antibody, TNX-1500, which retains the fragment antigen binding region of ruplizumab (humanized 5c8, BG9588), was modified by protein engineering to decrease Fc binding to Fc-gamma receptor IIa while retaining certain other effector functions and pharmacokinetics comparable with natural antibodies. Here, we report that TNX-1500 treatment is not associated with platelet activation in vitro and consistently inhibits kidney allograft rejection in vivo without clinical or histologic evidence of prothrombotic phenomena. We conclude that TNX-1500 retains efficacy similar to that of 5c8 to prevent kidney allograft rejection while avoiding previously identified pathway-associated thromboembolic complications.

Abstract
Interleukin-34 (IL-34) has been known as a factor that is involved with tumor progression and therapeutic resistance. However, there are limitations to addressing the mechanism of how IL-34 induces therapeutic resistance. Here, we show a mechanism of IL-34-induced resistance against cytotoxic anti-cancer therapies such as radiotherapy using X-ray and chemotherapy by Oxaliplatin. This research demonstrates that IL-34 immunologically changes the tumor microenvironment after treatments with radiation or chemotherapeutic agents such as oxaliplatin. We identified the changes in immune cells using flow cytometry and immunofluorescent (IF) staining, which are up-regulated upon the existence of IL-34. Overall, these findings demonstrate the possibility of IL-34 blockade as a novel combination therapy for cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To clarify the cause of leg volume reduction during tiptoe movement in the standing position. METHODS The right legs of 20 participants were assessed. The participants performed tiptoe movement in the supine position, and then stood up and performed the tiptoe movement and ankle dorsiflexion. Leg volume changes were recorded continuously using air plethysmography. RESULTS Differences between leg volume changes due to tiptoe movement and the refilling volumes were not significantly different between the supine (59 mL) and standing (49 mL) positions, indicating that this amount of motion artifact was included in the downward trace recorded by tiptoe movement in the standing position. CONCLUSIONS Leg volume reduction during tiptoe movement in the standing position included a significant amount of motion artifacts. Therefore, it may be difficult to accurately measure the ejection volume using tiptoe movement in the standing position.

Abstract
For cellular or tissue transplantation using iPS cells (iPSCs), from the viewpoint of time and economic cost, an use of allogeneic ones is being considered. Immune regulation is one of the key issues in successful allogeneic transplantation. To reduce the risk of rejection, several attempts have been reported to eliminate effects of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) on the iPSCs-derived grafts. On the other hand, we have shown that minor antigen-induced rejection is not negligible even when the MHC's impact is mitigated. In organ transplantation, it is known that donor-specific blood transfusion (DST) can specifically control immune responses to the donor. However, whether DST could control the immune response in iPSC-based transplantation was not clarified. In this study, using a mouse skin transplantation model, we demonstrate that infusion of donor splenocytes can promote allograft tolerance in the MHC-matched but minor antigen-mismatched condition. When narrowing down the cell types, we found that infusion of isolated splenic B cells was sufficient to control rejection. As a mechanism, the administration of donor B cells induced unresponsiveness but not deletion in recipient T cells, suggesting that the tolerance was induced in the periphery. The donor B cell transfusion induced allogeneic iPSCs engraftment. These results suggest for the first time a possibility that DST using donor B cells could induce tolerance against allogeneic iPSC-derived grafts.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) has many potential applications beyond current standard indications, including treatment of autoimmune disease, gene therapy, and transplant tolerance induction. However, severe myelosuppression and other toxicities after myeloablative conditioning regimens have hampered wider clinical use. To achieve donor hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) engraftment, it appears essential to establish niches for the donor HSCs by depleting the host HSCs. To date, this has been achievable only by nonselective treatments such as irradiation or chemotherapeutic drugs. An approach that is capable of more selectively depleting host HSCs is needed to widen the clinical application of HSCT. Here, we show in a clinically relevant nonhuman primate model that selective inhibition of B cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) promoted hematopoietic chimerism and renal allograft tolerance after partial deletion of HSCs and effective peripheral lymphocyte deletion while preserving myeloid cells and regulatory T cells. Although Bcl-2 inhibition alone was insufficient to induce hematopoietic chimerism, the addition of a Bcl-2 inhibitor resulted in promotion of hematopoietic chimerism and renal allograft tolerance despite using only half of the dose of total body irradiation previously required. Selective inhibition of Bcl-2 is therefore a promising approach to induce hematopoietic chimerism without myelosuppression and has the potential to render HSCT more feasible for a variety of clinical indications.

Abstract
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive breast cancer subtype characterized by a lack of therapeutic targets. The paucity of effective treatment options motivated a number of studies to tackle this problem. Immunosuppressive cells infiltrated into the tumor microenvironment (TME) of TNBC are currently considered as candidates for new therapeutic targets. Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) have been reported to populate in the TME of TNBC, but their roles in the clinical and biological features of TNBC have not been clarified. This study identified that interleukin-34 (IL-34) released by TNBC cells is a crucial immunomodulator to regulate MDSCs accumulation in the TME. We provide evidence that IL-34 induces a differentiation of myeloid stem cells into monocytic MDSCs (M-MDSCs) that recruits regulatory T (Treg) cells, while suppressing a differentiation into polymorphonuclear MDSCs (PMN-MDSCs). As a result, the increase in M-MDSCs contributes to the creation of an immunosuppressive TME, and the decrease in PMN-MDSCs suppresses angiogenesis, leading to an acquisition of resistance to chemotherapy. Accordingly, blockade of M-MDSC differentiation with an estrogen receptor inhibitor or anti-IL-34 monoclonal antibody suppressed M-MDSCs accumulation causing retardation of tumor growth and restores chemosensitivity of the tumor by promoting PMN-MDSCs accumulation. This study demonstrates previously poorly understood mechanisms of MDSCs-mediated chemoresistance in the TME of TNBC, which is originated from the existence of IL-34, suggesting a new rationale for TNBC treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Orthodontic treatment involves movement of teeth by compression and resorption of the alveolar bone using orthodontic forces. These movements are closely linked to the interactions between the teeth and the periodontal tissues that support them. Owing to an increase in adults seeking orthodontic treatment, orthodontists increasingly encounter patients with periodontal diseases, in whom orthodontic treatment is contraindicated. In rare cases, periodontitis may develop after treatment initiation. However, no approach for treating periodontitis after the initiation of orthodontic treatment has been established. Here, we present an approach for managing localized severe periodontitis manifesting after initiating orthodontic treatment. CASE PRESENTATION A 32-year-old Japanese woman was referred to the Department of Dentistry and Oral Surgery by an orthodontist who observed symptoms of acute periodontitis in the maxillary molars that required periodontal examination and treatment. A detailed periodontal examination, including oral bacteriological examination, revealed localized severe periodontitis (stage III, grade B) in the maxillary left first and second molars and in the mandibular right second molar. After consultation with the orthodontist, the orthodontic treatment was suspended based on the results of the bacteriological examination to allow for periodontal treatment. Full-mouth disinfection was performed with adjunctive oral sitafloxacin. Periodontal and bacteriological examinations after treatment revealed regression of the localized periodontitis with bone regeneration. Thereafter, orthodontic treatment was resumed, and good progress was achieved. CONCLUSIONS Orthodontists should recognize the risk of acute severe periodontitis in young adults. Asymptomatic patients with localized severe periodontitis may clear a screening test before orthodontic treatment but develop acute symptoms with bone resorption during orthodontic treatment. Therefore, patients requiring orthodontic treatment should be examined by their family dentist or a periodontist to rule out periodontal issues that may impede orthodontic treatment. The patients should also be informed of age-related risks. Further, periodontists, family dentists, and orthodontists who treat adults should be informed about periodontitis and the need for interdisciplinary collaboration. In patients who develop periodontitis after orthodontic treatment initiation, temporary interruption of orthodontic treatment and aggressive periodontal intervention may facilitate recovery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES A few studies reported that both decrease and increase in body mass index (BMI) were associated with the development of dementia in later life. However, it is unclear what changes in body composition are associated with cognitive decline. This study investigated the longitudinal influences of changes in body composition on cognitive function among community-dwelling adults. DESIGN, SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS This longitudinal study included older adults aged ≥60 years without cognitive impairment who participated in National Institute for Longevity Sciences - Longitudinal Study of Aging. MEASUREMENTS Cognitive function was assessed using the MMSE. Body composition was measured by a dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry system. Then, BMI, fat mass index (FMI), fat-free mass index (FFMI), and muscle mass index (MMI) were calculated. The changes in body composition over 6 years (second wave to fifth wave) were calculated, and three groups were created: decreased group, decrease of >5%; stable group, change within 5%, and increased group, increase of >5%. In statistical analysis, a linear mixed model was applied by sex to investigate the influences of body composition changes on cognitive function over 4 years (fifth wave to seventh wave). RESULTS This study analyzed 515 participants (mean age, 67.05 years; 53.4% men). Men with decreased group in FFMI and MMI exhibited faster declines in MMSE scores than those with stable group (β [95% CI]: FFMI, -0.293 [-0.719 to -0.020]; MMI, -0.472 [-0.884 to -0.059]). In women, there was no significant association between body composition changes and cognitive functions. CONCLUSIONS Decrease in fat-free mass and muscle mass is associated with faster cognitive declines in men. These results suggest the importance of continuous monitoring of muscle mass to prevent cognitive decline in later life.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Despite the recognized impact of intrinsic capacity (IC) impairment on healthy aging, international comparisons in different sociocultural contexts are scarce. This study aimed to compare IC impairment among community-dwelling older adults in Japan and Taiwan to explore the context of healthy aging in different countries. DESIGN Comparative observational study. SETTING National Institute for Longevity Sciences-Longitudinal Study of Aging (NILS-LSA) in Japan and Longitudinal Aging Study of Taipei (LAST) in Taiwan. PARTICIPANTS 794 individuals (age range, 60.0-86.5 years) from NILS-LSA and 1,358 (60.0-96.7 years) from LAST. MEASUREMENTS IC impairment was evaluated across the domains of locomotion, cognition, vitality, sensory capacity, and psychological well-being. Participants were categorized as having impaired IC or healthy. We investigated associations between IC impairment, falls, and all-cause mortality. RESULTS IC impairment was present in 54.9% and 37.3% of participants in the NILS-LSA and LAST cohorts, respectively. Male NILS-LSA participants with impaired IC (odds ratio [OR]:1.50, 95% confidence interval [CI]:1.03-2.20), with hearing loss (OR:1.98, 95% CI:1.00-3.90) were more likely to fall. In LAST, impaired locomotion (OR:2.14, 95% CI:1.46-3.14) increased the risk of falls. Men with impaired IC (hazard ratio [HR]; 2.14, 95% CI:1.10-4.15) and visual impairment (HR:2.21, 95% CI:1.15-4.25) and women with impaired psychological well-being (HR:4.94, 95% CI:1.28-18.97) in the NILS-LSA cohort had greater risk for all-cause mortality; however, this was not shown for LAST participants. CONCLUSION The prevalence and distribution of IC impairment and associated biomarkers differed significantly between participants in Japan and Taiwan. However, the associations with adverse outcomes remained similar, emphasizing the need for tailored interventions for healthy aging.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Breast cancer susceptibility gene 1 (BRCA1)-associated ovarian cancer patients have been treated with A poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor, extending the progression-free survival; however, they finally acquire therapeutic resistance. Interleukin (IL)-34 has been reported as a poor prognostic factor in several cancers, including ovarian cancer, and it contributes to the therapeutic resistance of chemotherapies. IL-34 may affect the therapeutic effect of PARP inhibitor through the regulation of tumor microenvironment (TME). METHODS In this study, The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) data set was used to evaluate the prognosis of IL-34 and human ovarian serous carcinoma. We also used CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing technology in a mouse model to evaluate the efficacy of PARP inhibitor therapy in the presence or absence of IL-34. RESULTS We found that IL34 was an independent poor prognostic factor in ovarian serous carcinoma, and its high expression significantly shortens overall survival. Furthermore, in BRCA1-associated ovarian cancer, PARP inhibitor therapy contributes to anti-tumor immunity via the XCR1+ DC-CD8+ T cell axis, however, it is canceled by the presence of IL-34. CONCLUSION These results suggest that tumor-derived IL-34 benefits tumors by creating an immunosuppressive TME and conferring PARP inhibitor therapeutic resistance. Thus, we showed the pathological effect of IL-34 and the need for it as a therapeutic target in ovarian cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The protein digestibility-corrected amino acid score (PDCAAS) represents the degree of utilizable dietary protein, namely the protein quality. The PDCAAS of a diet is required to be evaluated on a meal-by-meal basis, as food digestion and absorption occur with each meal intake. Although a positive association between protein intake and cognitive function has been reported, no study has investigated the association between PDCAAS of a diet and cognitive function. OBJECTIVES To investigate the relationship between PDCAAS of a diet and cognitive impairment in older adults. DESIGN Longitudinal epidemiological study. SETTING Community-based setting. PARTICIPANTS We analyzed 541 community-dwellers who participated in both baseline and follow-up survey. They were 60-83 years of age without cognitive impairment at baseline. MEASUREMENTS Cognitive impairment was defined as a Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score ≤27. Individual PDCAASs were calculated for each of three regular meals from the 3-day dietary records at baseline. Participants were classified into two groups according to the sex-specific tertiles (T1-T3) of the PDCAAS for each meal (i.e., T1 as the low score group and T2-T3 as the medium and high score group). The dependent variable was cognitive impairment observed after 4 years, and the explanatory variables were the PDCAAS groups for each meal (the medium and high group as the reference) and covariates (sex, age, body mass index, education, depressive symptoms, medical history, protein intake at each meal, and the MMSE score at baseline). Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the low PDCAAS group for cognitive impairment after 4 years. RESULTS A significant association was observed only between a low PDCAAS of breakfast and the incidence of cognitive impairment (the adjusted odds ratios [95% confidence intervals] of low PDCAAS for cognitive impairment for breakfast, lunch, and dinner were 1.58 [1.00-2.50], 0.85 [0.54-1.34], and 1.08 [0.71-1.65], respectively). CONCLUSION A lower PDCAAS of breakfast, i.e., a diet with poor quality of protein, was associated with the incidence of cognitive impairment in older adults of the community.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Off-the-shelf major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-matched iPS cells (iPSC) can potentially initiate host immune responses because of the existence of numerous minor antigens. To suppress allo-immune responses, combination of immunosuppressants is usually used, but its efficacy to the allogeneic iPSC-based transplantation has not been precisely evaluated. METHODS Three transplantation models were used in this study; MHC-matched, minor antigen-mismatched mouse skin or iPSC-graft transplantation, and fully allogeneic human iPSC-derived liver organoid transplantation in immune-humanized mice. The recipients were treated with triple drugs combination (TDC; tacrolimus, methylprednisolone, and mycophenolate mofetil) or co-stimulatory molecule blockade (CB) therapy with some modifications. Graft survival as well as anti-donor T and B cell responses was analyzed. RESULTS In the mouse skin transplantation model, immunological rejection caused by the minor antigen-mismatch ranged from mild to severe according to the donor-recipient combination. The TDC treatment could apparently control the mild skin graft rejection when combined with a transient T cell depletion, but unexpected anti-donor T or B cell response was observed. On the other hand, CB therapy, particularly when combined with rapamycin treatment, was capable of attenuating both mild and severe skin graft rejection and allowing them to survive long-term without any unfavorable anti-donor immune responses. The efficacy of the CB therapy was confirmed in both mouse and human iPSC-derived graft transplantation. CONCLUSIONS The findings suggest that the CB-based treatment seems suitable to well manage the MHC-matched allogeneic iPSC-based transplantation. The TDC-based treatment may be also used to suppress the rejection, but screening of its severity prior to the transplantation seems to be needed.

Abstract
A 54-year old man diagnosed with rectal cancer underwent laparoscopic high anterior resection with Japanese D3 lymph node dissection. The pathology results were as follows: pT2pN3M0, pStage Ⅲb(Japanese Classification of Colorectal, 8th edition). Adjuvant chemotherapy with CapeOX regimen was administered 8 courses. 1.5 years after the operation, computed tomography(CT)examination revealed a swollen para-aortic lymph node(PALN). Positron emission tomography (PET)-CT revealed PALN with high FDG uptake. We considered that neo-adjuvant chemotherapy and PALN dissection may be possible for PALN, which was isolated metastasis and curative by surgery. After 6 courses of bevacizumab-FOLFIRI therapy was administered, PALN dissection was performed. Pathological examination of the resected specimen showed adenocarcinoma in 4 of the 16 dissected lymph nodes. Histological treatment effect of preoperative therapy was Grade 1b. Postoperatively 6 courses of FOLFIRI were administered. The patient has been followed up for 7 years and 8 months after the first surgery, 5 years and 9 months after the curative resection, with no recurrence showed complete cure. Multidisciplinary treatment with anticancer drug and R0 resection was an effective treatment for isolated PALN recurrence of rectal cancer.

Abstract
Immediate decompression and induction of chemotherapy are exceedingly critical for obstructive colorectal cancer patients with unresectable liver metastasis. Systematic chemotherapy was administered after self-expandable metallic stent(SEMS) placement in 2 patients with obstructive sigmoid cancer with unresectable liver metastasis. Chemotherapy-induced tumor shrinkage led to SEMS migration, enabling the use of an anti-VEGF drug. Eventually, both patients underwent successful management without restenosis.

Abstract
IL-34 is a cytokine that shares one of its receptors with CSF-1. It has long been thought that CSF-1 receptor (CSF-1R) receives signals only from CSF-1, but the identification of IL-34 reversed this stereotype. Regardless of low structural homology, IL-34 and CSF-1 emanate similar downstream signaling through binding to CSF-1R and provoke similar but different physiological events afterward. In addition to CSF-1R, protein-tyrosine phosphatase (PTP)-ζ and Syndecan-1 were also identified as IL-34 receptors and shown to be at play. Although IL-34 expression is limited to particular tissues in physiological conditions, previous studies have revealed that it is upregulated in several diseases. In cancer, IL-34 is produced by several types of tumor cells and contributes to therapy resistance and disease progression. A recent study has demonstrated that tumor cell-derived IL-34 abrogates immunotherapy efficacy through myeloid cell remodeling. On the other hand, IL-34 expression is downregulated in some brain and dermal disorders. Despite accumulating insights, our understanding of IL-34 may not be even close to its nature. This review aims to comprehensively describe the physiological and pathological roles of IL-34 based on its similarity and differences to CSF-1 and discuss the rationale for its disease-dependent expression pattern.

Abstract
Previously undiagnosed or asymptomatic epiglottic cysts may be coincidentally detected during intubation. This retrospective case series identified undiagnosed epiglottic cysts that were discovered during intubation in 4 patients who underwent oral surgery under general anesthesia at our hospital during a 6-year period. Including 2 additional cases, 1 previously diagnosed and 1 detected during preoperative imaging, epiglottic cysts were observed in 6 of 1112 cases (0.54%) total. Among the undiagnosed epiglottic cyst cases, mild dyspnea on effort or snoring was reported in 2 patients, but all others were asymptomatic. Upon discovering previously undiagnosed epiglottic cysts during intubation, it is essential to proceed cautiously, remain alert for potential airway management difficulties, and avoid injuring or rupturing the cysts. In addition, any available preoperative imaging should be reviewed as information pertinent to the airway and any abnormalities may be useful. This report discusses the anesthetic care of 6 patients with epiglottic cysts that were previously known or initially discovered during intubation.

Abstract
Background/Objectives The Japan-multimodal intervention trial for prevention of dementia (J-MINT) is intended to verify the effectiveness of multi-domain interventions and to clarify the mechanism of cognitive improvement and deterioration by carrying out assessment of dementia-related biomarkers, omics analysis and brain imaging analysis among older adults at high risk of dementia. Moreover, the J-MINT trial collaborates with partnering private enterprises in the implementation of relevant interventional measures. This manuscript describes the study protocol. Design/Setting Eighteen-month, multi-centered, randomized controlled trial. Participants We plan to recruit 500 older adults aged 65–85 years with mild cognitive impairment. Subjects will be centrally randomized into intervention and control groups at a 1:1 allocation ratio using the dynamic allocation method with all subjects stratified by age, sex, and cognition. Intervention The multi-domain intervention program includes: (1) management of vascular risk factors; (2) group-based physical exercise and self-monitoring of physical activity; (3) nutritional counseling; and (4) cognitive training. Health-related information will be provided to the control group every two months. Measurements The primary and secondary outcomes will be assessed at baseline, 6-, 12-, and 18-month follow-up. The primary outcome is the change from baseline to 18 months in a global composite score combining several neuropsychological domains. Secondary outcomes include: cognitive change in each neuropsychological test, incident dementia, changes in blood and dementia-related biomarkers, changes in geriatric assessment including activities of daily living, frailty status and neuroimaging, and number of medications taken. Conclusions This trial that enlist the support of private enterprises will lead to the creation of new services for dementia prevention as well as to verify the effectiveness of multi-domain interventions for dementia prevention. Electronic Supplementary Material Supplementary material is available for this article at 10.14283/jpad.2021.29 and is accessible for authorized users.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the immunotherapeutic effects of macrophage-like induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cell-derived suppressor cells (SCs) in ocular immune response and experimental autoimmune uveoretinitis (EAU). METHODS The genes of Oct3/4, Sox2, Klf4, and c-Myc were transferred to B cells enriched from the spleen cells of C57BL/6 mice by using retrovirus vectors. Transferred B cells were cultured for 17 days to obtain colonies of iPS cells. Through additional steps, iPS-SCs were induced. An antigen-specific T cell proliferation assay was performed with CD4+ T cells collected from draining lymph nodes of the mice immunized with human interphotoreceptor retinoid-binding protein (hIRBP) peptide and co-cultured with iPS-SCs. Cytokine concentrations in the culture supernatant were examined. Mice were immunized with hIRBP peptide to induce EAU. The iPS-SCs were administered into the mice one day before the induction of EAU. RESULTS The iPS-SCs decreased hIRBP-specific T cell proliferation depending on the number of cells. Productions of tumor necrosis factor-α and interferon-γ were significantly decreased; however, transforming growth factor-β1, nitric oxide, interleukin (IL)-13, IL-17A, and IL-17 F levels were elevated in the supernatant when the collected T cells were co-cultured with iPS-SCs. The iPS-SCs had immunosuppressant effects even without cell-to-cell contact, and their effects were non-specific to the antigen preloaded on iPS-SCs. EAU was significantly milder in the mice administered iPS-SCs prior to immunization. CONCLUSIONS Macrophage-like iPS-SCs reduced Th1 immune response to a retinal antigen and Th1-mediated EAU in mice. These results showed the possibility of the application of iPS technology to the treatment of noninfectious ocular inflammation, endogenous uveitis, in the future.

Abstract
Polyunsaturated fatty acids help maintain insulin sensitivity, mitochondrial function, and anti-inflammation. It is well known that deterioration in these areas can cause frailty. However, little is known about the differences in serum polyunsaturated fatty acid levels among frailty components. We investigated the cross-sectional relationship between frailty and serum fatty acids in 1,033 community-dwelling older adults aged 60-88 years. Polyunsaturated fatty acid concentrations were measured from fasting blood samples. The modified phenotype criteria defined frailty. Polyunsaturated fatty acid levels were compared among each component using general linear modeling after controlling for sex, age, body mass index, smoking status, household income, and medical history. Lower polyunsaturated fatty acid levels were associated with the modified frailty criteria, including shrinking and weakness (p < 0.05). Our findings suggest that serum polyunsaturated fatty acid levels differ depending on the frailty status of older adults.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine whether age-specific prevalence of frailty in Japan changed between 2012 and 2017. DESIGN This study performed meta-analyses of data collected from 2012 to 2017 using the Integrated Longitudinal Studies on Aging in Japan (ILSA-J), a collection of representative Japanese cohort studies. SETTING The ILSA-J studies were conducted on community-living older adults. PARTICIPANTS ILSA-J studies were considered eligible for analysis if they assessed physical frailty status and presence of frailty in the sample. Seven studies were analyzed for 2012 (±1 year; n = 10312) and eight studies were analyzed for 2017 (±1 year; n = 7010). Five studies were analyzed for both 2012 and 2017. MEASUREMENTS The study assessed the prevalence of frailty and frailty status according to 5 criteria: slowness, weakness, low activity, exhaustion, and weight loss. RESULTS The overall prevalence of physical frailty was 7.0% in 2012 and 5.3% in 2017. The prevalence of frailty, especially in people 70 years and older, tended to decrease in 2017 compared to 2012. Slight decreases were found in the prevalence of frailty subitems including weight loss, slowness, exhaustion, and low activity between 2012 and 2017, but change in the prevalence of weakness was weaker than other components. CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of physical frailty decreased from 2012 to 2017. There are age- and gender-related variations in the decrease of each component of frailty.

Abstract
Background: Frailty is a dynamic process, with frequent transitions between frailty, prefrailty, and robust statuses over time. The effect of dietary intake on frailty transitions is unknown. Objective: To examine the association between dietary intake and frailty transitions. Design: Survey-based retrospective analysis of the National Institute for Longevity Sciences-Longitudinal Study of Aging data. Setting: Areas neighboring the National Center for Geriatrics and Gerontology in Aichi Prefecture, Japan. Participants: We included 469 prefrail community dwellers aged 60–87 years who participated both in the baseline (2008–2010) and 2-year follow-up (2010–2012) surveys of the National Institute for Longevity Sciences-Longitudinal Study of Aging. Measurements: Transitions of frailty were categorized by changes in status from baseline to follow-up: “deterioration (prefrail to frail),” “persistence (persistent prefrail),” and “reversal (prefrail to robust).” Estimated dietary (nutrients and food) intakes assessed by 3-day dietary records in each frailty transition were analyzed with a multivariate-adjusted general linear model after adjusting for sex, age, education, family income, smoking, and chronic disease. Results: At the 2-year follow-up, 28%, 7%, and 65% of participants had robust, frail, and pre-frail status, respectively. Among 13 food groups, only milk and dairy product intake was positively associated with frailty reversal even after adjusting for all frailty criteria at baseline. Despite insignificant differences in the estimated mean intakes, the baseline intake of saturated fatty acids, potassium, and vitamin B1 tended to be the highest in the reversal group. The estimated mean (standard error) for milk and dairy product intake (g/day) was 79.1 (28.6), 129.3 (19.9), and 161.7 (21.7) for the deterioration, persistence, and reversal groups, respectively (P=0.0036, P-trend=0.0019). Conclusions: Daily consumption of dairy products may contribute to frailty reversal and frailty prevention among older community dwellers who consume small amounts of dairy products. Other food groups showed no association with frailty status transitions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Previous studies have reported a relationship between low protein intake and cognitive decline and have suggested that this association may be related to specific amino acid intake. However, the effects of amino acid intake on the maintenance of cognitive function have yet to be clarified. We examined the longitudinal association between dietary amino acid intake and cognitive function in community-dwelling older adults. DESIGN Longitudinal epidemiological study. SETTING Community-based setting. PARTICIPANTS This study comprised 427 study participants aged 60-82 years with no cognitive decline, defined as a Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score of >27 at baseline, who also participated in a follow-up. The average and standard deviation of the follow-up period was 8.2 ± 0.3 years. MEASUREMENTS Dietary intake was assessed using three-day dietary records at baseline. Participants were classified into quartiles (Q1-Q4) based on the intake of 19 amino acids for males and females. Next, we classified participants into Q1 and Q2-Q4 groups. Cognitive function was assessed using the MMSE both at baseline and at follow-up. Multivariable logistic regression models were used to estimate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the associations between the Q1 group and cognitive decline (MMSE ≤27), using the Q2-Q4 group as a reference group. Covariates were age, sex, body mass index, years of education, severity of depressive symptoms, history of lifestyle diseases (hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes mellitus, stroke, and ischemic heart disease), energy intake (kcal/d), protein intake (g/d), and MMSE score at baseline. RESULTS Cognitive decline was present in 133 (31.1%) participants. After adjustment for covariates, including total protein intake, the ORs (95% CIs) for cognitive decline were 2.40 (1.21-4.75) for lysine, 2.05 (1.02-4.09) for phenylalanine, 2.18 (1.09-4.34) for threonine, and 2.10 (1.06-4.15) for alanine. CONCLUSION The results suggest that lysine, phenylalanine, threonine, and alanine intake is important for the maintenance of cognitive function in older people, independent of total protein intake.

Abstract
Interleukin-34 (IL-34) is an alternative ligand to colony-stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1) for the CSF-1 receptor that acts as a key regulator of monocyte/macrophage lineage. In this study, we show that tumor-derived IL-34 mediates resistance to immune checkpoint blockade regardless of CSF-1 existence in various murine cancer models. Consistent with its immunosuppressive characteristics, the expression of IL-34 in tumors correlates with decreased frequencies of cellular (such as CD8+ and CD4+ T cells and M1-biased macrophages) and molecular (including various cytokines and chemokines) effectors at the tumor microenvironment. Then, a neutralizing antibody against IL-34 improved the therapeutic effects of the immune checkpoint blockade in combinatorial therapeutic models, including a patient-derived xenograft model. Collectively, we revealed that tumor-derived IL-34 inhibits the efficacy of immune checkpoint blockade and proposed the utility of IL-34 blockade as a new strategy for cancer therapy.

Abstract
Background Interleukin (IL)-34 acts as an alternative ligand for the colony-stimulating factor-1 receptor and controls the biology of myeloid cells, including survival, proliferation, and differentiation. IL-34 has been reported to be expressed in cancer cells and to promote tumor progression and metastasis of certain cancers via the promotion of angiogenesis and immunosuppressive macrophage differentiation. We have shown in our previous reports that targeting IL-34 in chemo-resistant tumors in vitro resulted in a remarkable inhibition of tumor growth. Also, we reported poor prognosis in patients with IL-34-expressing tumor. Therefore, blocking of IL-34 is considered as a promising therapeutic strategy to suppress tumor progression. However, the molecular mechanisms that control IL-34 production are still largely unknown. Methods IL-34 producing ovarian cancer cell line HM-1 was treated by bromodomain and extra terminal inhibitor JQ1. The mRNA and protein expression of IL-34 was evaluated after JQ1 treatment. Chromatin immunoprecipitation was performed to confirm the involvement of bromodomain-containing protein 4 (Brd4) in the regulation of the Il34 gene. Anti-tumor effect of JQ1 was evaluated in mouse tumor model. Results We identified Brd4 as one of the critical molecules that regulate Il34 expression in cancer cells. Consistent with this, we found that JQ1 is capable of efficiently suppressing the recruitment of Brd4 to the promotor region of Il34 gene. Additionally, JQ1 treatment of mice bearing IL-34-producing tumor inhibited the tumor growth along with decreasing Il34 expression in the tumor. Conclusion The results unveiled for the first time the responsible molecule Brd4 that regulates Il34 expression in cancer cells and suggested its possibility as a treatment target.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer is the second-most lethal gynecological malignancy and the seventh-commonest cause of cancer-related death in women around the world. Most of the ovarian cancer patients are diagnosed at advanced stages and suffer from recurrence after primary cytoreductive surgery and standard first-line chemotherapy. Thus, the successful management of ovarian cancer patients requires the identification of factors that contribute to progression and relapse. Interleukin-34 (IL-34) is a novel cytokine that acts as a tissue-specific ligand of colony-stimulating factor-1 receptor (CSF-1R). In cancer, IL-34 exerts pro-tumorigenic functions that promote tumor growth, metastasis, angiogenesis, immune suppression and therapeutic resistance. In this study, we evaluate the impact of IL-34 on progression and survival of ovarian cancer patients. First, IL-34 was found to be expressed in several human ovarian cancer cell lines and cancer tissues from patients. The expression of IL-34 was enhanced by cytotoxic chemotherapy in ovarian cancer cell lines and cancer tissues from chemotherapy-treated ovarian cancer patients. Importantly, high IL-34 expression correlated with worse progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival in different cohorts. The assessment of PFS based on a combination between IL34 expression and other related genes such as CSF1R and CD163 helped further to reach more statistical significance compared with IL34 alone. Furthermore, in the murine ovarian cancer cell HM-1 in vivo model, it was suggested that IL-34-derived tumor cells was correlated with tumor progression and survival by modulating the immune environment. Collectively, these findings indicate a possible correlation between IL-34 expression and disease progression in ovarian cancer patients and the mouse model.

Abstract
An emerging, rapidly spreading coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 is causing a devastating pandemic. As we have not developed curative medicine and effective vaccine, the end of this life-threatening infectious disease is still unclear. Severe COVID-19 is often associated with hypercytokinemia, which is typically found in macrophage activation syndrome. SARS-CoV-2 infection causes this strong inflammation within the lung and propagates to respiratory and, ultimately, systemic organ malfunction. Although we have not fully understood the physiological and pathological aspects of COVID-19, current research progress indicates the effectiveness of anti-cytokine therapy. Here, we summarize macrophage activation syndrome and its possible contribution to COVID-19, and cytokine targeted attempts in severe COVID-19 cases.

Abstract
Recent progress in regenerative medicine has enabled the utilization of pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) as the resource of therapeutic cells/tissue. However, immune suppression is still needed when the donor-recipient combination is allogeneic. We have reported previously that mouse PSCs-derived immunosuppressive cells contribute to prolonged survival of grafts derived from the same mouse PSCs in allogeneic recipients. For its clinical application, a preclinical study using non-human primates such as common marmoset must be performed. In this study, we established the induction protocol of immunosuppressive cells from common marmoset ES cells. Although similar immunosuppressive macrophages could not be induced by same protocol as that for mouse PSCs, we employed an inhibitor for histone methyltransferase, DZNep, and succeeded to induce them. The DZNep-treated macrophage-like cells expressed several immunosuppressive molecules and significantly inhibited allogeneic mixed lymphocyte reaction. The immunosuppressive cells from non-human primate ESCs will help to establish an immunoregulating strategy in regenerative medicine using PSCs.

Abstract
The development of pluripotent stem cell (PSC)-based technologies provides us a new therapeutic approach that generates grafts for transplantation. In order to minimize the risk of immune reaction, the banking of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from donors with homozygous human leukocyte antigen (HLA) haplotype is planned in Japan. Even though pre-stocked and safety validated HLA-homozygous iPSCs are selected, immunological rejection may potentially occur because the causes of rejection are not always due to HLA mismatches. A couple of studies concerning such immunological issues have reported that genetic ablation of HLA molecules from PSC combined with gene transduction of several immunoregulatory molecules may be effective in avoiding immunological rejection. Also, our research group has recently proposed a concept that attempts to regulate recipient immune system by PSC-derived immunoregulatory cells, which results in prolonged survival of the same PSC-derived allografts. PSC-based technologies enable us to choose a new therapeutic option; however, considering its safety from an immunological point of view should be of great importance for safe clinical translation of this technology.

Abstract
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a subtype characterized by the absence of therapeutic targets. It shows rapid progression, higher relapse, and poor prognosis, so the establishment of an effective therapeutic target is required. We focused on interleukin-34 (IL-34) that is a novel cytokine relating to inflammation and tumorigenesis. It has been reported that IL-34 correlates with poor prognosis of various cancers. In this study, we evaluated the relationship of IL-34 and prognosis in TNBC using human clinical information and mice model. We found that IL-34 was highly expressed in TNBC, and the survival rate in TNBC was significantly lower in patients with high IL-34 expression. Furthermore, multivariate analysis revealed that IL-34 independently affects prognosis. In murine TNBC model, IL-34 deficiency in tumor cells decreased in vivo tumor growth and increased inflammatory cytokine production from macrophages. These results suggest that tumor-derived IL-34 creates a favorable environment for TNBC cells. Thus, we showed a novel pathological role of IL-34 in TNBC and the potential of IL-34 as a therapeutic target for it.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Muscle mass is often mentioned not to reflect muscle strength. For muscle mass assessment skeletal muscle index (SMI) is often used. We have reported that dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA)-derived SMI does not change with age in women, whereas the cross-sectional muscle area (CSMA) derived from computed tomography (CT) does. OBJECTIVES The present study aimed to compare CT and DXA for the assessment of muscle tissue. DESIGN AND SETTING Cross-sectional study in the local residents. PARTICIPANTS A total of 1818 subjects (age 40-89 years) randomly selected from community dwellers underwent CT examination of the right mid-thigh to measure the cross-sectional muscle area (CSMA). Skeletal muscle mass (SMM) was measured by DXA. The subjects performed physical function tests such as grip strength, knee extension strength, leg extension strength, and gait speed. The correlation between CT-derived CSMA and DXA-derived SMM along with their association with physical function was examined. RESULTS After controlling for related factors, the partial correlation coefficient of muscle cross-sectional area (CSA) with physical function was larger than that of DXA-derived SMM for gait speed in men (p=0.002) and knee extension strength in women (p=0.03). The partial correlation coefficient of quadriceps (Qc) CSA with physical function was larger than that of DXA-derived SMM for leg extension power in both sexes (p=0.01), gait speed in men (p<0.001), and knee extension strength in women (p<0.001). CONCLUSION Mid-thigh CT-derived CSMA, especially Qc CSA, showed significant associations with grip strength, knee extension strength, and leg extension power, which were equal to or stronger than those of DXA-derived SMM in community-dwelling middle-aged and older Japanese people. The mid-thigh CSMA may be a predictor of mobility disability, and is considered to be useful in the diagnosis of sarcopenia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fluoropyrimidine plus platinum, followed by paclitaxel (PTX) plus ramucirumab is a recommended treatment strategy for advanced gastric cancer (AGC). We investigated how peripheral neuropathy (PN), induced by platinum in first-line chemotherapy, affected the tolerability of second-line chemotherapy with PTX (2nd-PTX). METHODS The subjects were AGC patients who received second-line chemotherapy with PTX (2nd-PTX) after the failure of platinum-based chemotherapy between March 2015 and June 2018. We retrospectively reviewed PN severity, and dose reduction and/or discontinuation due to PN during 2nd-PTX, and compared the cumulative incidence of grade 2 PN between the two groups according to first-line chemotherapy containing oxaliplatin (L-OHP) or cisplatin (CDDP). RESULTS The L-OHP and CDDP groups consisted of 50 patients each. PN severity before 2nd-PTX was grade 1/2 in 46/12% of patients in the L-OHP group, and 100/0% in the CDDP group. The worst grades of chemotherapy-induced PN during 2nd-PTX were grades 1/2/3 in 40/34/14% of patients in the L-OHP group, and 36/18/0% in the CDDP group. Median time to grade 2 PN after starting second-PTX was 2.5 months in the L-OHP group and 8.6 months in the CDDP group (hazard ratio 3.34, p = 0.002). The frequencies of a PN-related dose reduction and/or discontinuation of PTX were 18% in the L-OHP group and 8% in the CDDP group (p = 0.234). CONCLUSIONS The severity of PN and tolerability of 2nd-PTX may be affected by first-line chemotherapy with L-OHP or CDDP for AGC.

Abstract
Introduction Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) concomitant with acute aortic dissection is rare. Case report An acute type B aortic dissection involving AAA in a 58 year old woman is described. Computed tomography angiography demonstrated that the false lumen of the abdominal aorta including the aneurysm remained patent, secondary to entry sites in the abdominal aorta, bilateral external iliac arteries, and a membrane tear of the left renal artery (LRA). The aneurysm was isolated by endovascular aneurysm repair and LRA stenting; all entry sites were occluded by endovascular treatment that included covered stenting of the LRA. Imaging performed three months after the procedure confirmed complete thrombosis of the false lumen and AAA sac shrinkage. Discussion Endovascular treatment with covered stents is reported as an alternative strategy for treatment of AAA concomitant with acute aortic dissection involving a visceral artery. A 58 year old woman developed acute type B aortic dissection involving an AAA. AAA concomitant with acute aortic dissection is rare. Endovascular treatment using a covered stent of the visceral artery can be effective.

Abstract
The thymus plays a significant role in establishing immunological self-tolerance. Previous studies have revealed that host immune reaction to allogeneic transplants could be regulated by thymus transplantation. However, physiological thymus involution hinders the clinical application of these insights. Here, we report an efficient generation of thymic epithelial-like tissue derived from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and its potential to regulate immune reaction in allogeneic transplantation. We established an iPSC line which constitutively expresses mouse Foxn1 gene and examined the effect of its expression during in vitro differentiation of thymic epithelial cells (TECs). We found that Foxn1 expression enhances the differentiation induction of cells expressing TEC-related cell surface molecules along with upregulation of endogenous Foxn1. iPSC-derived TECs (iPSC-TECs) generated T cells in nude recipient mice after renal subcapsular transplantation. Moreover, iPSC-TEC transplantation to immuno-competent recipients significantly prolonged the survival of allogeneic skin. Our study provides a novel concept for allogeneic transplantation in the setting of regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Gastric volvulus is the medical situation that a stomach is twisted beyond the physiological range. It is a rare disease which is hard to experience in routine medical examination. Principally surgical treatment is essential for the acute type. However, the conservative therapy should be attempted in some cases, such as decompression of a stomach with a nasogastric tube, endoscopic reduction and so forth. Concerning surgical operation, the base is reduction of the torsion and immobilization of stomach. Recently, laparoscopic surgery is performed for the case that the general condition is stable or chronically progressive in the early stages. Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) had also been performed for gastric immobilization. However, the recurrences and problems of twisting around the gastrostomy site were reported in addition to the problem of cosmetic outcomes. Therefore, the case is decreasing. In this paper, we present two cases on adult primary gastric volvulus. For the first case, endoscopic reduction was not good enough to release the torsion state. Then laparoscopic gastropexy was performed successfully. For the second case, we succeeded in endoscopic reduction. Since the patient had already experienced gastric volvulus, laparoscopic surgery was performed. The upper and middle gastric bodies were secured to the anterior abdominal wall, and gastric antrum to the ligamentum teres hepatis with interrupted absorbable sutures respectively. However, partial gastric volvulus recurred after ten and a several days postoperatively due to cutting off of the suture at the antrum secured to the ligamentum teres hepatis at previous surgery. Then, PEG for 2 points of lower body and antrum were performed to secure the antrum. The gastrostomies were removed 6 months after the surgery. Immobilization by laparoscopic gastropexy and PEG are useful for gastric volvulus due to their significant merit of minimum invasiveness. Concerning gastropexy, the number of sutures is very important for the secured part not to be torn off.

Abstract
Naked mole rats (NMRs) have extraordinarily long lifespans and anti-tumorigenic capability. Recent studies of humans and mice have shown that many age-related diseases, including cancer, are strongly correlated with immunity, and macrophages play particularly important roles in immune regulation. Therefore, NMR macrophages may contribute to their unique phenotypes. However, studies of the roles of macrophages are limited by material restrictions and the lack of an established experimental strategy. In this study, we developed a flow cytometric strategy to identify NMR macrophages. The NMR macrophages were extractable using an off-the-shelf anti-CD11b antibody, M1/70, and forward/side scatter data obtained by flow cytometry. NMR macrophages proliferated in response to human/mouse recombinant M-CSF and engulfed Escherichia coli particles. Interestingly, the majority of NMR macrophages exhibited co-staining with an anti-NK1.1 antibody, PK136. NK1.1 antigen crosslinking with PK136 results in mouse NK cell stimulation; similarly, NMR macrophages proliferated in response to NK1.1 antibody treatment. Furthermore, we successfully established an NMR macrophage cell line, NPM1, by transduction of Simian virus 40 early region that proliferated indefinitely without cytokines and retained its phagocytotic capacity. The NPM1 would contribute to further studies on the immunity of NMRs.

Abstract
132 Background: Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common adverse effect of platinum and paclitaxel (PTX) persisting for long time. In the Gastric Cancer Treatment Guideline (Japanese Gastric Cancer Association, 2018), first-line chemotherapy with fluoropyrimidine plus platinum followed by taxane based chemotherapy is recommended. It is not well known how much CIPN by platinum in the first-line chemotherapy affect the tolerability of second-line chemotherapy containing PTX (second-PTX). Methods: The subjects were advanced gastric cancer patients who received second-PTX after the platinum-containing first-line chemotherapy between March 2015 and June 2018. Patients were divided into two groups according to prior platinum: oxaliplatin (prior L-OHP) and cisplatin (prior CDDP) groups. CIPN was graded according to CTCAE ver.4. Severity of CIPN, dose reduction and discontinuation due to CIPN during the second-PTX were compared between the two groups. Results: 109 patients (50 prior L-OHP group and 59 prior CDDP group) were included in this retrospective study. The severity of CIPN just before second-PTX was 46% for grade 1 and 12% for grade 2 in the prior L-OHP group, and 8.5% and 0% in the prior CDDP group. The initial dose of PTX was reduced in 59 % of the prior L-OHP and in 39 % of the prior CDDP group. The worst grade of CIPN during second-PTX was 40% for grade 1, 34% for grade 2, 14% for grade 3 in the prior L-OHP group, and 33.9%, 20.3%, 0% in the prior CDDP group. Median time to grade 2 neuropathy during second-PTX was 2.5 months in the prior L-OHP group and 8.6 months in the prior CDDP group (p = 0.0004). CIPN-related dose reduction of PTX were 12.0% in the prior L-OHP group and 3.4% in the prior CDDP group (p = 0.177). Discontinuation of second-PTX due to CIPN were 10.0% in the prior L-OHP group and 5.1% in the prior CDDP group (p = 0.541). Conclusions: The severity of CIPN and tolerability of the second-PTX may be affected by prior platinum, L-OHP or CDDP, in the first-line chemotherapy for advanced gastric cancer.

Abstract
Background The proportion of elderly patients with myasthenia gravis (MG) is increasing over time. Thoracoscopic extended thymectomy has been shown to achieve a superior short-term outcome to transsternal procedures. Therefore, the long-term clinical outcome should be re-examined, particularly in elderly patients. Methods We evaluated the long-term clinical outcomes after extended thymectomy in 30 MG patients with or without thymoma. Twenty-one (70%) patients underwent surgery by 65 years of age, and the remaining 9 (30%) underwent surgery after 65 years of age. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to determine the influence of various factors on the improvement in MG symptoms. Results The characteristics in the elderly patients were comparable to those in the younger patients, except for the age at surgery. Symptoms of MG improved in 4 of the 9 (44%) elderly patients and in 18 of the 21 (86%) younger patients (P=0.0192). One elderly patient who underwent transsternal thymectomy died suddenly on postoperative day 3, probably due to a MG crisis: no pathological abnormalities were detected by an autopsy. A multivariate analysis identified an age at thymectomy of <65 years (P=0.0237) and a duration from the onset to thymectomy of <1 year (P=0.0405) as independent factors associated with the improvement of MG symptoms. Indeed, 4 of the 5 (80%) elderly patients who underwent thymectomy within 1 year after the onset had a favorable long-term outcome. Conclusions Thymectomy can be an option even in elderly patients, provided the operation is performed early after the onset.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Nutrition plays an important role in the development of frailty, and the present study examined the association between energy, macronutrient, and food intake and the development of physical frailty. DESIGN Prospective cohort study. SETTING The National Institute for Longevity Sciences - Longitudinal Study of Aging (NILS-LSA), a community-based study. PARTICIPANTS Participants included 166 men and 117 women aged 65-86 years without frailty components at baseline who participated in both the sixth (2008-2010) and seventh (2010-2012) waves of the NILS-LSA. MEASUREMENTS Physical frailty was assessed using the modified criteria established by the Cardiovascular Health Study (2001). All participants were classified as "robust (number of frailty components: 0)," "prefrail (1-2)," or "frail (3-5)." Energy, macronutrient, and food intake was calculated based on 3-day dietary records during the sixth wave. Associations between dietary intake per day and the development of frailty 2 years later (from robust at the sixth wave to prefrail/frail at the seventh wave) were examined using multiple logistic regression analysis after adjusting for sex, baseline age, and other covariables. RESULTS Among the participants included, 36% were classified as prefrail/frail 2 years later. Higher energy [1 standard deviation (SD), odds ratio (95% confidence interval): 362 kcal, 0.68 (0.49-0.94)], protein [16 g, 0.72 (0.53-0.97)], and fat [15 g, 0.69 (0.52-0.92)] intake was negatively associated with frailty development. Higher meat [38 g, 0.68 (0.51-0.92)] and dairy [114 g, 0.73 (0.55-0.96)] intake was negatively associated with frailty development. Higher energy intake was negatively associated with the development of weakness (low grip strength) and low activity, while higher protein intake was negatively associated with the development of low activity. CONCLUSION Increased consumption of meat and dairy products may provide sufficient protein and fat necessary for achieving higher energy intake, thereby effectively preventing physical frailty among older Japanese individuals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM Dose adjustment of vancomycin (VCM) is important in improving clinical outcomes and avoiding adverse effects such as nephrotoxicity. Although pharmacist-managed VCM therapy has been reported to optimize treatment, there are no studies focused on pharmacist expertise to date. In this study, we compared the contribution of pharmacists trained for infectious diseases and general pharmacists to dose adjustment of VCM. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively investigated VCM trough concentration after dose adjustment by both trained (n = 67) and general (without special training for infectious diseases; n = 85) pharmacists. We also compared the incidence of nephrotoxicity during VCM treatment in both groups. RESULTS The rate of achieving therapeutic VCM trough concentration (10-20 μg/mL) was higher in the trained group than in the control group (80.6 vs. 54.1%, p < 0.001). No significant differences in incidence of nephrotoxicity were observed between the two groups (p = 0.744). Trained pharmacists could contribute more successfully to the achievement of therapeutic VCM concentration ranges without increasing the risk of nephrotoxicity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to assess the relationship between weight gain from early adulthood and visceral fat accumulation. METHODS The participants were 549 men aged 42 to 64 years who were randomly selected from the local resident registry for the National Institute for Longevity Sciences' neighbourhood. They were asked to recall their weight at 18 years of age, and then, post-18 weight-change values were calculated for each participant (their current weight minus their weight at 18). The participants were divided according to their median body mass index (BMI) at 18 years of age (initial BMI) (<20.14 and ≥20.14 kg m-2). Visceral fat area (VFA) and subcutaneous fat area (SFA) were measured on computed tomography scans. RESULTS The participants with initial BMI of <20.14 kg m-2 exhibited greater post-18 weight changes than those with initial BMI of ≥20.14 kg m-2. The participants' post-18 weight-change values were negatively correlated with their initial BMI and positively correlated with both VFA and SFA. The slope of the regression line for the relationship between post-18 weight change and VFA was steeper in the participants with initial BMI of <20.14 kg m-2 (β = 4.36) than in those with initial BMI of ≥20.14 kg m-2 (β = 3.23). CONCLUSIONS Visceral fat accumulation is affected not only by an individual's post-18 weight gain but also by their initial BMI. Men who were thin in early adulthood experienced greater weight gain-associated VFA increases, but the same was not true for SFA.
