Abstract
Salmonids have four subtypes of insulin-like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP)-1, termed -1a1, -1a2, -1b1 and 1b2, owing to teleost- and a lineage-specific whole-genome duplications. We have previously produced recombinant proteins of masu salmon IGFBP-1a1 and -1b2 and conducted functional analysis. To further characterize salmonid-specific IGFBP-1s, we cloned cDNAs encoding mature proteins of IGFBP-1a2 and -1b1 from the liver of masu salmon (Oncorhynchus masou). IGFBP-1a2 and -1b1 shared a 56% amino acid sequence homology whereas their homologies with their counterparts (i.e. -1a1 and -1b2) were 77% and 82%, respectively. We next expressed recombinant masu salmon (rs) IGFBP-1a2 and -1b1 with fusion partners thioredoxin (Trx) and a His-tag using the pET-32a(+) vector system in Escherichia coli. Trx.His.rsIGFBP-1s were detected in the insoluble faction, solubilized in a buffer containing urea, and isolated by Ni-affinity chromatography. They were refolded by dialysis and cleaved from the fusion partners by enterokinase. rsIGFBP-1a2 and -1b1 were purified by reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography. Purified rsIGFBP-1a2 and -1b1 had the ability to bind digoxigenin-labeled human IGF-I on ligand blotting. We then examined the effects of rsIGFBP-1a1, -1a2, -1b1 and -1b2 in combination with human IGF-I on growth hormone (GH) release from cultured pituitary cells of masu salmon. IGF-I alone reduced GH release while the addition of rsIGFBP-1a1, -1b1 or -1b2, but not rsIGFBP-1a2, diminished the suppressive effect of IGF-I. Addition of rsIGFBP-1s without IGF-I had no effect on GH release. These results show that rsIGFBP-1b1, along with rsIGFBP-1a1 and -1b2, inhibits IGF-I action on the pituitary in masu salmon. The lack of the effect by rsIGFBP-1a2 suggests that salmon IGFBP-1 subtypes underwent subfunction partitioning and have different degrees of IGF-inhibitory action.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The major presenting symptom of uterine arteriovenous fistulas is massive, torrential vaginal bleeding, the degree of which often leads to a shock state. CASE A 35-year-old woman, gravida 3, para 2 presented with massive vaginal hemorrhage at the first menstruation six months after delivery. Uterine arteriovenous fistulas were diagnosed by color Doppler ultrasonography (US), dynamic computer tomography (CT), and conventional angiography. The patient underwent hysterectomy after bloodstream decrease by bilateral uterine artery embolization. CONCLUSION The extent of uterine arteriovenous fistulas was diagnosed by color Doppler US, CT, and pelvic angiography, and this precise evaluation led to an adequate therapeutic strategy for uterine arteriovenous fistulas.
