Abstract
Sepsis is a significant global public health challenge, resulting in millions of human deaths annually. Transient receptor potential melastatin 8 (TRPM8), a non-selective ion channel, is the primary cold sensor in humans; however, its effects on endotoxin-induced inflammation remain unclear. We previously reported that TRPM8 knockout mice exhibited more severe physiological and behavioral endotoxemia responses upon a high-dose injection with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). In the present study, we investigated whether icilin, a TRPM8 agonist, was a target for the suppression of sickness responses using a mouse model of LPS-induced sepsis. A peripheral high-dose injection of LPS at 5 mg/kg showed a maximal body temperature decrease of 5.1 °C in mice subcutaneously pretreated with vehicle and 1.5 °C in icilin-pretreated animals. The decline in locomotor activity was attenuated in icilin-pretreated mice and its recovery was faster; however, the high-dose LPS injection rapidly decreased locomotor activity regardless of the icilin pretreatment. Furthermore, the icilin pretreatment attenuated LPS-induced decreases in body weight and food and water intakes and accelerated recovery from these sickness responses. Therefore, the present results demonstrated that the icilin pretreatment alleviated LPS-induced sickness responses or decreases in body temperature, locomotor activity, body weight loss, and food and water intakes, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic target for sepsis.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential melastatin 8 (TRPM8) is a menthol receptor that detects cold temperatures and influences behaviors and autonomic functions under cold stimuli. Despite the well-documented peripheral roles of TRPM8, the evaluation of its central functions is still of great interest. The present study clarifies the nature of a subpopulation of TRPM8-expressing neurons in the adult mice. Combined in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry revealed that TRPM8-expressing neurons are exclusively positive for glutamate decarboxylase 67 mRNA signals in the lateral septal nucleus (LS) and preoptic area (POA) but produced no positive signal for vesicular glutamate transporter 2. Double labeling immunohistochemistry showed the colocalization of TRPM8 with vesicular GABA transporter at axonal terminals. Immunohistochemistry further revealed that TRPM8-expressing neurons frequently expressed calbindin and calretinin in the LS, but not in the POA. TRPM8-expressing neurons in the POA expressed a prostaglandin E2 receptor, EP3, and neurotensin, whereas expression in the LS was minimal. These results indicate that hypothalamic TRPM8-expressing neurons are inhibitory GABAergic, while the expression profile of calcium-binding proteins, neurotensin, and EP3 differs between the POA and LS.

Abstract
The circumventricular organs (CVOs) are located around the brain ventricles, lack a blood-brain barrier (BBB) and sense blood-derived molecules. This review discusses recent advances in the importance of CVO functions, especially glial cells transferring periphery inflammation signals to the brain. The CVOs show size-limited vascular permeability, allowing the passage of molecules with molecular weight <10,000. This indicates that the lack of an endothelial cell barrier does not mean the free movement of blood-derived molecules into the CVO parenchyma. Astrocytes and tanycytes constitute a dense barrier at the distal CVO subdivision, preventing the free diffusion of blood-derived molecules into neighboring brain regions. Tanycytes in the CVOs mediate communication between cerebrospinal fluid and brain parenchyma via transcytosis. Microglia and macrophages of the CVOs are essential for transmitting peripheral information to other brain regions via toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2). Inhibition of TLR2 signaling or depletion of microglia and macrophages in the brain eliminates TLR2-dependent inflammatory responses. In contrast to TLR2, astrocytes and tanycytes in the CVOs of the brain are crucial for initiating lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammatory responses via TLR4. Depletion of microglia and macrophages augments LPS-induced fever and chronic sickness responses. Microglia and macrophages in the CVOs are continuously activated, even under normal physiological conditions, as they exhibit activated morphology and express the M1/M2 marker proteins. Moreover, the microglial proliferation occurs in various regions, such as the hypothalamus, medulla oblongata, and telencephalon, with a marked increase in the CVOs, due to low-dose LPS administration, and after high-dose LPS administration, proliferation is seen in most brain regions, except for the cerebral cortex and hippocampus. A transient increase in the microglial population is beneficial during LPS-induced inflammation for attenuating sickness response. Transient receptor potential receptor vanilloid 1 expressed in astrocytes and tanycytes of the CVOs is responsible for thermoregulation upon exposure to a warm environment less than 37°C. Alternatively, Nax expressed in astrocytes and tanycytes of the CVOs is crucial for maintaining body fluid homeostasis. Thus, recent findings indicate that glial cells in the brain CVOs are essential for initiating neuroinflammatory responses and maintaining body fluid and thermal homeostasis.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential melastatin 8 (TRPM8) is a cold-sensing thermoreceptor cation channel; however, its functional role in endotoxin-induced neuroinflammation remains unclear. In the present study, we investigated chronic sickness responses in TRPM8 knockout (KO) mice during lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced sepsis. The intraperitoneal administration of 5 mg/kg LPS generated longer-lasting hypothermia in TRPM8 KO mice than in wild-type (WT) mice. TRPM8 KO mice also exhibited longer-lasting declines in locomotor activity, body weight, and food and water intakes than WT mice upon LPS administration. In addition, LPS-induced decreases in the numbers of leucocytes and lymphocytes that persisted for a longer time in TRPM8 KO mice than in WT mice. The present results indicate TRPM8 attenuated chronic sickness responses in endotoxin-induced sepsis.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential melastatin 8 (TRPM8), a cold-mediated ion channel, is well known to be expressed in primary sensory neurons; however, limited information is currently available on the distribution of TRPM8-expressing trigeminal nerve fibers in the brainstem. The present study showed the distribution of TRPM8-expressing fibers in the pons and medulla oblongata of the TRPM8 KO mice engineered by knocking in EGFP at the frame of the start codon of TRPM8. In addition, TRPM8-expressing fibers were also observed in the brachium pontis, middle cerebellar peduncle, the sensory root of the trigeminal nerve, and spinal trigeminal tract (sp5). Furthermore, TRPM8-expressing nerve fibers surrounded the somata of HuC/D-positive neurons in the sp5. Moreover, the distribution of TRPM8-expressing fibers from rostral to caudal was visualized in sagittal sections of the mouse brain. The present results also revealed that a high number of TRPM8-expressing fibers colocalized with CTB-labeled fibers in the sp5 following an injection of CTB into the whisker compared to mice's eye and ear. These results show the distribution pathway of TRPM8-expressing fibers in the pons and medulla oblongata and possible involvement in peripheral signaling from the trigeminal nerve.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential melastatin 8 (TRPM8) functions in the sensing of noxious and innocuous colds; however, its significance in pathogen-induced thermoregulation remains unclear. In the present study, we investigated the role of TRPM8 in the regulation of endotoxin-induced body temperature control. The peripheral administration of low-dose lipopolysaccharide (LPS) at 50 μg/kg generated fever in wild-type (WT) mice, whereas it caused hypothermia in TRPM8 knockout (KO) animals. LPS-induced sickness responses such as decrease in body weight, and food and water intake were not different between WT and TRPM8 KO mice. TRPM8 KO mice exhibited more severe hypothermia and lower locomotor activity following the peripheral administration of high-dose LPS at 5 mg/kg compared with WT ones. An intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) injection of either LPS at 3.6 μg/kg or interleukin-1β at 400 ng/kg elicited hypothermia in TRPM8 KO mice, in contrast to fever in WT animals. The peripheral administration of zymosan at 3 mg/kg also induced hypothermia in contrast to fever in WT mice. An i.c.v. injection of prostaglandin E2 at 16 or 160 nmol/kg induced normal fever in both WT and TRPM8 KO mice. Infrared thermography showed significant decline of the interscapular skin temperature that estimates temperature of the brown adipose tissue, regardless of no alteration of its temperature in WT animals. Fos immunohistochemistry showed stronger Fos activation of hypothalamic thermoregulation-associated nuclei in TRPM8 KO mice compared with WT animals following the peripheral administration of low-dose LPS. Therefore, the present study indicates that TRPM8 is necessary for switching between fever and hypothermia during endotoxin-induced inflammation.

Abstract
Astrocyte- and tanycyte-like neural stem cells (NSCs) were recently detected in the area postrema (AP) and central canal (CC) of the adult medulla oblongata, respectively. The present study aimed to examine dynamical behaviors of the astrocyte- and tanycyte-like NSCs of the mouse medulla oblongata to leptin. The neurosphere assay identified astrocytes in the AP and tanycytes in the CC as NSCs based on their self-renewing neurospherogenic potential. Both NSCs in neurosphere cultures were multipotent cells that generate astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, and neurons. Astrocyte-like NSCs actively proliferated and tanycyte-like NSCs were quiescent under physiologically-relevant in vivo conditions. Chronic leptin treatment promoted proliferation of astrocyte-like NSCs in the AP both in vitro and in vivo. Leptin receptors were expressed in astrocyte-like, but not tanycyte-like NSCs. Food deprivation significantly diminished proliferation of astrocyte-like NSCs. Therefore, the present study indicates that proliferation of astrocyte-like, but not tanycyte-like NSCs is regulated by nutritional conditions.

Abstract
The discovery of neural stem cells (NSCs) in the adult mammalian brain has provided insights into an extra level of brain plasticity. The proliferation and differentiation of NSCs is modulated by various physiological, pathological, and pharmacological stimuli. NSCs were recently detected in the medulla oblongata of adult rodents and humans; however, their functional significance currently remains unknown. In the present study, we examined the effects of chronic wheel-running and a corticosterone (CORT) treatment on the proliferation of astrocyte-like NSCs in the area postrema (AP) and dentate gyrus (DG). Chronic running significantly decreased the number of bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU)-labeled astrocyte-like NSCs in the AP of adult mice, but markedly increased that of BrdU+ NSCs/neural progenitor cells in the DG. The chronic CORT treatment markedly reduced the number of BrdU+ astrocyte-like NSCs in the AP, but not in the DG. These results demonstrate that the proliferation of astrocyte-like NSCs in the medulla oblongata is decreased by chronic running and a CORT treatment.

Abstract
Assays of protein contained in water-soluble fraction of encysting cells Colpoda cucullus Nag-1 by two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-D PAGE) and mass spectrometry (MS) revealed that the amount of β-tubulin abruptly increased in 2.5–10 h after encystment induction. Judging from the results that total α-tubulin content did not decrease much until 12 h after encystment induction, the result indicates that disassembly of microtubules may occur soon after encystment is induced. Therefore, we tried to visualize dynamics of microtubules. Immunofluorescence microscopy using anti-α-tubulin antibody indicated that disassembly of axonemal microtubules of cilia became within 1.5 h after encystment induction, and resorbed in 3 days. Although the cytoplasmic microtubules failed to be visualized clearly, encystmentdependent globulation of cells was promoted by taxol, an inhibitor of disassembly of microtubules. It is possible that a temporary formation of cytoplasmic microtubules may be involved in cell globulation.
The phosphorylation level of actin (43 kDa) became slightly elevated just after encystment induction. Lepidosomes, the sticky small globes surrounding encysting cells, were vividly stained with Acti-stain 555 phalloidin, suggesting that 43-kDa actin or its homologues may be contained in lepidosomes.

Abstract
Thermal homeostasis in mammalians is a self-regulating process by which biological systems maintain an internal thermal stability, even under different temperature conditions; however, the molecular mechanisms involved under warm ambient temperature remain unclear. Here, we aimed to clarify functional significance of transient receptor potential vanilloid receptor 1 (TRPV1) under warm ambient temperature. TRPV1 KO mice exhibited transient hyperthermia when exposed to 30.0 and 32.5 °C, whereas wild-type (WT) mice did not. TRPV1 KO mice exhibited prolonged and prominent hyperthermia upon exposure to 35.0 °C, whereas WT mice showed transient hyperthermia. Hyperthermia also occurs in WT mice that received intracerebroventricular injection of TRPV1 antagonist AMG9810 upon exposure to 35.0 °C. Heat loss behaviors, sleeping and body licking, were deficient in TRPV1 KO mice exposed to warm temperatures. Therefore, the present results indicate that central TRPV1 is crucial for maintaining a constant body temperature via the initiation of heat loss behaviors under warm ambient temperature.

Abstract
Introduction
The gold standard of sleep measurement has been laboratory polysomnography (PSG). However, electrodes and cables can cause discomfort, and exposure to an unfamiliar environment can cause the “first-night effect.” Difficulty falling asleep or maintaining sleep, poor sleep quality, and nightmares are some of the key clinical symptoms observed among individuals with psychiatric disorders. Those suffering from sleep disorders often present with symptoms of discontent with regard to sleep quality, timing, and quantity, and these symptoms have an adverse impact on function and quality of life. A minimally invasive technique would be preferable in patients with psychiatric disorders, who tend to be sensitive to environmental change. Accordingly, we evaluated the performance of a single-channel electroencephalography (EEG)-based sleep monitoring system in patients with psychiatric disorders.
Methods
Fifty-nine patients undergoing PSG were enrolled in this study. Single-channel EEG sleep monitoring was performed simultaneously with PSG. PSG and the EEG recordings were used to evaluate sleep parameters, such as total sleep time (TST), sleep efficiency, rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, light sleep (stages N1 and N2), and deep sleep (stage N3). Correlation analysis was used to evaluate the agreement on sleep parameters and attributing factors to the inaccuracies of the single-channel EEG recording.
Results
TST, sleep efficiency, REM sleep duration, and non-REM sleep duration of the single-channel EEG-based sleep monitoring showed a significant correlation with those of PSG. Lower sleep efficiency, a decrease in REM sleep, and increases in waking after sleep onset, arousal index, and apnea/hypopnea index were associated with the difference of sleep parameters between the two methods.
Conclusion
Among patients with psychiatric disorders who are sensitive to environmental change single-channel EEG sleep monitoring would be a useful technique to objectively evaluate sleep quality.

Abstract
The choroid plexus (CP), located at the walls of the brain ventricles, produces and secretes cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Hydrocephalus is a neurological disorder in which the CP abnormally secretes excess amounts of CSF into the ventricles. There is currently no information on the vascular dynamics of the CP in adult brains under normal and hydrocephalic conditions. In the present study, we reported the continuous proliferation of endothelial cells in the CP of normal mice, which depended on vascular endothelial cell growth factor (VEGF). The proliferation of endothelial cells increased in mice with intraventricular hemorrhage, which was attenuated by a pretreatment with the toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) inhibitor VIPER. Moreover, the intracerebroventricular infusion of the TLR4 agonist, lipopolysaccharide, increased endothelial cell proliferation in the CP and induced ventriculomegaly. The present results provide insights into the importance of the TLR4-initiated and VEGF-dependent proliferation of endothelial cells in the pathogenesis of hydrocephalus.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fluoxetine is one of the most widely prescribed antidepressants and a selective inhibitor of presynaptic 5-HT transporters. The fornix is the commissural and projection fiber that transmits signals from the hippocampus to other parts of the brain and opposite site of hippocampus. The corpus callosum (CC) is the largest of the commissural fibers that link the cerebral cortex of the left and right cerebral hemispheres. These brain regions play pivotal roles in cognitive functions, and functional abnormalities in these regions have been implicated in the development of various brain diseases. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of fluoxetine on the proliferation and/or survival of microglia and oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) in the fornix and CC, the white matter connecting cortical-limbic system, of the adult mouse brain. METHODS The effects of fluoxetine on the proliferation and/or survival of microglia and OPCs were examined in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-treated and normal mice. Proliferating cells were detected in mice that drank water containing the thymidine analog, bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU), using immunohistochemistry. RESULT Fluoxetine significantly attenuated LPS-induced increases in the number of BrdU-labeled microglia and morphological activation from the ramified to ameboid shape, and decreased the number of BrdU-labeled OPCs under basal conditions. CONCLUSIONS The present results indicate that fluoxetine exerts inhibitory effects on LPS-induced increases in the proliferation and/or survival and morphological activation of microglia and basal proliferation and/or survival of OPCs in the fornix and CC of adult mice.

Abstract
The circumventricular organs (CVOs) are the brain regions that lack the blood-brain barrier and allow free entry of blood-derived molecules, offering specialized niche to initiate rapid and early neuroinflammatory responses in the brain. Complement component 1q (C1q) is shown to be the first recognition component of the complement pathway and has a crucial function in the brain under pathological conditions. In the present study, we found that C1q expression in CX3CR1-positive microglia was increased in the CVOs and their neighbouring brain regions of adult mice at 1 day after a single administration of 1 mg/kg lipopolysaccharide (LPS), whereas it returned to control levels at 3 days after LPS stimulation. C1q expression was also seen to localize at synapsin-positive presynaptic axonal terminals in various brain regions. Thus, the present study demonstrates a transient upregulation of microglial C1q expression in the CVOs and their adjacent brain regions, indicating that a transient upregulation of C1q is possibly concerned with physiological responses at early phase of brain inflammation. SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY: The circumventricular organs (CVOs) are specialized brain regions that lack the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and initiate neuroinflammatory responses in the brains. The present study showed that the expression of complement protein C1q was highly increased in microglia of the CVOs and their adjacent brain regions. Moreover, C1q expression was observed to localize specifically at presynaptic axonal terminals in the CVOs and their neighbouring brain regions. Thus, the present study indicates that C1q is possibly correlated with physiological responses at early phase of brain inflammation.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Despite the recent progress in upfront combination therapy for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), a useful biomarker for the disorder still remains to be developed. Selenoprotein P (SeP) is a glycoprotein secreted mainly from hepatocytes but also from other various kinds of cells, including pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs), to maintain selenium homeostasis and cellular energy metabolism. We have recently demonstrated that SeP expression in PASMCs is markedly up-regulated in PAH patients and plays crucial roles in the pathogenesis of the disorder. In this study, we thus examined whether serum levels of SeP could be a useful biomarker for the disorder.
Methods
In the experimental study, we performed gene expression microarray and in silico analyses to identify a novel therapeutic target for PAH. We also used the lung, serum, and cultured PAMSCs derived from patients with PAH for mechanistic experiments. In the clinical study, we enrolled a total of 65 consecutive patients with PAH who underwent right heart catheterization for hemodynamic assessment. We measured serum SeP levels and evaluated their prognostic impacts during follow-up (mean 1,520 days, IQR: 1,393–1,804 days). Serum SeP level was measured using a newly developed sol particle homogeneous immunoassay. As controls, we collected serum samples from 20 controls without any known cardiac disorders evaluated by hematological examination, echocardiography, and coronary angiography. In PAH patients, we examined the relationship between baseline SeP levels and composite endpoint of all-cause death and lung transplantation. The correlation between the absolute changes in SeP and those in hemodynamic parameters during follow-up were also examined.
Results
In the experimental study, SeP promoted PASMC proliferation through increased oxidative stress and mitochondrial metabolic dysfunction, which were associated with activated HIF-1α and dysregulated glutathione metabolism. In the clinical study, PAH patients showed significantly higher levels of serum SeP compared with controls (3.07±0.57 vs. 2.43±0.25 mg/L, P<0.0001). Higher SeP levels (cut-off point, 3.47 mg/L) were significantly associated with the composite endpoint of all-cause death and lung transplantation in PAH patients [HR: 4.85 (1.42 to 16.6), P<0.01]. Importantly, we found that absolute changes in SeP levels in PAH patients significantly correlated with those in mean pulmonary artery pressure, pulmonary vascular resistance, and cardiac index in response to PAH-specific therapy (R=0.78, 0.76, and −0.71, respectively, all P<0.0001). Furthermore, the increases in SeP levels during follow-up predicted the poor outcome in PAH patients [Figure, HR: 4.29 (1.27 to 14.4), P<0.05].

Conclusions
These results indicate that SeP is a novel therapeutic target of PAH and that serum SeP levels are a novel biomarker for diagnosis and assessment of treatment efficacy and long-term prognosis in PAH patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Prognostic impact of serum uric acid (UA) levels in patients with heart failure (HF) remains to be fully elucidated, as previous studies were inconclusive with small study sample sizes. Furthermore, although the J-curve relationship between serum UA levels and cardiovascular events has been suggested in patients with hypertension and those with diabetes, it is still unclear whether this is also the case for patients with HF.
Purpose
We examined the prognostic impacts of serum UA levels in HF patients, using the database of our Chronic Heart Failure Registry and Analysis in the Tohoku district (CHART)-2 Study, the largest multicenter, prospective, observational cohort study for cardiovascular patients with HF or those at risk of HF in Japan (N=10,219).
Methods
First, we determined the cut-off value of serum UA levels at baseline by the Classification and Regression Tree (CART). Then, we divided 4,652 consecutive HF patients in the CHART-2 Study into 4 groups; G1 (<3.8 mg/dL, N=313), G2 (3.8–7.1 mg/dL, N=3,070), G3 (7.2–9.2 mg/dL, N=1,018), and G4 (≥9.3 mg/dL, N=251). Among the 4 groups, we compared clinical characteristics and incidence of all-cause death, HF hospitalization, and a composite of all-cause death and HF hospitalization.
Results
Mean age in G1, G2, G3, and G4 was 71±12, 69±12, 68±13, and 69±15 years, respectively (P<0.001). G1 was characterized by a significantly high prevalence of women as compared with G2, G3 and G4 (59, 32, 24 and 23%, respectively). Serum creatinine levels (0.8±0.4, 0.9±0.4, 1.2±0.6 and 1.4±0.8 mg/dL, respectively), prevalence of atrial fibrillation (34, 39, 45 and 50%, respectively), and diuretics use (36, 45, 67, 89%, respectively) increased from G1, G2, G3 to G4 (all P<0.001), while left ventricular ejection fraction decreased from G1, G2, G3 to G4 (59±15, 58±15, 54±15, and 52±17%, respectively, P<0.001). Median BNP levels were comparably low in G1 and G2 and then increased to G3 and G4 (94.4, 91.5, 130 and 192.5 pg/mL, respectively, P<0.001). As a HF etiology, prevalence of ischemic heart disease was highest in G2 and lowest in G4 (48, 52, 48, 38%, respectively, P<0.001), while that of dilated cardiomyopathy increased from G1, G2, G3 to G4 (11, 12, 16 and 20%, respectively, P<0.001). During the median follow-up period of 6.3 years, in G1, G2, G3 and G4, 111 (35%), 905 (29%), 370 (36%) and 139 (55%) patients died and 79 (25%), 729 (24%), 300 (29%) and 115 (46%) experienced HF hospitalization, respectively (both P<0.001). Cox proportional hazard models adjusted for clinical backgrounds showed that, as compared with G2, both G1 and G4 had increased risk for all-cause death, HF hospitalization and a composite of all-cause death, and HF hospitalization, indicating the J-curve relationship between serum UA levels and prognosis (Figure).
Prognostic impacts of serum UA levels
Conclusions
Both decreased and increased UA levels were associated with increased incidence of death and HF hospitalization in HF patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Although the importance of coronary functional abnormalities has been emerging, including epicardial coronary spasm (vasospastic angina, VSA) and coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD), comprehensive evaluation of the abnormalities in the same population remains to be examined.
Purpose
We examined the significance of coronary functional abnormalities in a comprehensive manner for both epicardial and microvascular coronary arteries in patients with chest pain and unobstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) as well as their prognostic impacts.
Methods and results
We prospectively enrolled 187 consecutive patients with suspected angina and unobstructive coronary arteries (M/F 113/74, 63.2±12.3 [SD] yrs.). We performed acetylcholine (ACh) provocation tests for coronary spasm, followed by functional tests for coronary microvascular function, including coronary flow reserve (CFR) and index of microcirculation resistance (IMR) during hyperemic state induced by intravenous adenosine. Among the 187 patients, ACh test identified 128 patients with VSA (68%). There was no significant difference in age, sex, or prevalence of traditional coronary risk factors between the non-VSA and the VSA groups. The median IMR value was significantly higher in the VSA group than in the non-VSA group [17.5 (12.0, 25.3) vs. 14.7 (10.7, 17.8), P=0.02], whereas CFR values were comparable between the 2 groups [2.51 (1.72, 3.35) vs. 2.66 (1.85, 3.64), P=0.34]. During the median follow-up period of 893 days, major adverse cardiac events (MACE), including cardiac death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and hospitalization due to unstable angina pectoris, occurred in 10 patients (5.3%). Multivariable analysis revealed that IMR correlated with the incidence of MACE [hazard ratio (HR) (95% confidence interval), 1.05 (1.02–1.09), P=0.002] and receiver-operating characteristics curve analysis identified IMR of 18.0 as the optimal cut-off value for the incidence of cardiac events. When we divided the patients into the following 4 groups according to the cut-off value of IMR (>18) and the presence or absence of VSA; G1, IMR <18 without VSA (n=45); G2, IMR ≥18 without VSA (n=14); G3, IMR <18 with VSA (n=67); and G4, IMR ≥18 with VSA (n=61), the Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed a significantly worse prognosis in G4 compared with other 3 groups (HR [95% CI] 6.23 [1.21–118.46], P=0.002) (Figure 1). Importantly, intracoronary administration of fasudil, a Rho-kinase inhibitor, significantly ameliorated IMR in G4 (P<0.0001) (Figure 2A), and %changes in IMR in response to intracoronary fasudil were more evident in G4 compared with other 3 groups (P<0.0001) (Figure 2B).
Conclusions
These results provide the first evidence that in patients with chest pain and unobstructive CAD, epicardial coronary spasm and increased microvascular resistance are frequently coexisted with worse long-term prognosis, for which Rho-kinase activationmay be involved.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Long-term prognosis of cancer patients has been improved along with the progress in chemotherapies. However, chemotherapy-related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD) is emerging as a serious adverse effect as it worsens patients' outcome and quality of life. Thus, early detection of subclinical CTRCD is an important emerging issue in the management of cancer patients. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) utilizes parametric mapping approach and strain analysis to provide detailed information about cardiac tissue and diastolic cardiac function.
Purpose
We examined whether the novel CMR imaging techniques are useful for early detection of CTRCD.
Methods and results
We performed both retrospective and prospective studies. (1) Retrospective study: We retrospectively enrolled 52 cancer patients (mean age 55.6±13 yrs., M/F=14/38) who had been treated with anthracyclines. We examined the usefulness of CMR for quantitative assessment of myocardial fibrosis caused by chemotherapies. We found that native T1 value was significantly prolonged in cancer patients compared with healthy controls (N=10) (1,279±56 vs. 1,240±34 msec, P=0.036). (2) Prospective study: A total of 99 consecutive female patients with breast cancer treated with chemotherapies were enrolled in this study from August 2017 to January 2019. To evaluate CTRCD in those patients, we performed CMR (at baseline and/or 6 months) and biomarkers analysis for cardiac troponin T (cTnT) and BNP at baseline and every 3 months during chemotherapies. In the 99 patients, 52 (mean age 53.0±12.7 yrs.) completed cardiac assessment at 6 months, and 6 (12%) developed CTRCD defined as a reduction in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) >10% from baseline and below 53% without symptoms. In patients with CTRCD (CTRCD group, N=6), as compared with those without it (non-CTRCD group, N=46), native T1 value was significantly prolonged after chemotherapies (1,303±32 vs. 1,322±22 msec at 6 months, P=0.03). Plasma cTnT levels at 3 months were also significantly higher in the CTRCD group compared with the non-CTRCD group [0.022 (IQR 0.015–0.026) vs. 0.01 (0.006–0.014) ng/mL, P=0.024], whereas there was no difference in BNP values. In the 52 patients, 28 (mean age 56.3±12.3 yrs.) underwent CMR both before and 6 months after chemotherapies. In those patients, LVEF and global radial strain were significantly decreased at 6 months from baseline (LVEF, from 70.5±4.6 to 66.0±7.1%; global radial strain, from 70.0±22.5 to 61.1±22.6%, respectively, both P<0.05). In patients with elevated cTnT levels at 3 months, as compared with those without it, LVEF and extracellular volume fraction (ECV) at 6 months were significantly worse (LVEF, 59.0±6.0 vs. 62.7±2.6%, P=0.042; ECV, 32.3±2.9 vs. 30.2±2.3%, P=0.049, respectively).
Conclusions
These results indicate that novel CMR imaging techniques are useful for early detection of CTRCD among cancer patients treated with chemotherapies.

Abstract
Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) recognizes cell wall components from Gram-positive bacteria. Until now, however, little has been known about the significance of brain TLR2 in controlling inflammation and thermoregulatory responses during systemic Gram-positive bacterial infection. In the present study, the TLR2 immunoreactivity was seen to be prominent in the microglia/macrophages of the circumventricular organs (CVOs) of the mouse brain. The intraperitoneal injection of Pam3CSK4, a TLR2 agonist, induced nuclear factor-κ B activation in the microglia/macrophages of the CVOs. The injection of Pam3CSK4 also produced the expression of Fos at astrocytes and neurons in the CVOs and the regions neighboring the CVOs. The Pam3CSK4 injection induced fever and sickness responses. Pretreatment with lipopolysaccharide, a TLR4 agonist, augmented the Pam3CSK4-induced fever together with the increased TLR2 immunoreactivity. These results indicate that the TLR2 in microglia/macrophages of the CVOs are possibly associated with initiating and transmitting inflammatory responses in the brain.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Microglia play crucial roles in the maintenance of brain homeostasis. Activated microglia show a biphasic influence, promoting beneficial repair and causing harmful damage via M2 and M1 microglia, respectively. It is well-known that microglia are initially activated to the M2 state and subsequently switch to the M1 state, called M2-to-M1 class switching in acute ischemic models. However, the activation process of microglia in chronic and sporadic hypertension remains poorly understood. We aimed to clarify the process using a chronic hypertension model, the deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA)-salt-treated Wistar rats. METHODS After unilateral nephrectomy, the rats were randomly divided into DOCA-salt, placebo, and control groups. DOCA-salt rats received a weekly subcutaneous injection of DOCA (40 mg/kg) and were continuously provided with 1% NaCl in drinking water. Placebo rats received a weekly subcutaneous injection of vehicle and were provided with tap water. Control rats received no administration of DOCA or NaCl. To investigate the temporal expression profiles of M1- and M2-specific markers for microglia, the animals were subjected to the immunohistochemical and biochemical studies after 2, 3, or 4 weeks DOCA-salt treatment. RESULTS Hypertension occurred after 2 weeks of DOCA and salt administration, when round-shaped microglia with slightly shortened processes were observed juxtaposed to the vessels, although the histopathological findings were normal. After 3 weeks of DOCA and salt administration, M1-state perivascular and parenchyma microglia significantly increased, when local histopathological findings began to be observed but cerebrovascular destruction did not occur. On the other hand, M2-state microglia were never observed around the vessels at this period. Interestingly, prior to M1 activation, about 55% of perivascular microglia transiently expressed Ki-67, one of the cell proliferation markers. CONCLUSIONS We concluded that the resting perivascular microglia directly switched to the pro-inflammatory M1 state via a transient proliferative state in DOCA-salt rats. Our results suggest that the activation machinery of microglia in chronic hypertension differs from acute ischemic models. Proliferative microglia are possible initial key players in the development of hypertension-induced cerebral vessel damage. Fine-tuning of microglia proliferation and activation could constitute an innovative therapeutic strategy to prevent its development.

Abstract
SummaryType 2B von Willebrand disease (vWD) is typically characterized by enhanced ristocetin-induced platelet aggregation (RIPA) caused by increased von Willebrand factor (vWF) affinity for platelets. Furthermore, absence of larger vWF multimers in plasma is characteristic of the originally described type IIB patients, now considered a subgroup of type 2B. We describe here three affected members of a family presenting with prolonged bleeding time, thrombocytopenia, markedly enhanced RIPA and spontaneous platelet aggregation, but normal plasma vWF antigen and ristocetin cofactor activity. Larger plasma vWF multimers, albeit decreased, were present in relatively greater proportion than in other type IIB patients. Genetic studies performed in two of these patients resulted in the identification of a previously unreported A→G transition at nucleotide 4175 in the sequence of the pre-pro-vWF cDNA, corresponding to the substitution Ile546→Val in the mature vWF subunit. This mutation appears to be responsible for an unusual type 2B phenotype, with greater enhancement of the vWF platelet interaction than in typical cases but partial preservation of the larger vWF multimers in plasma.

Abstract
SummaryWe have recently shown the existence of two distinct forms of botrocetin (one-chain and two-chain), and demonstrated that the two-chain species is approximately 30 times more active than the one-chain in promoting von Willebrand factor (vWF) binding to platelet glycoprotein (GP) Ib. The N-terminal sequence of two-chain botrocetin is highly homologous to sea-urchin Echinoidin and other Ca2+-dependent lectins (Fujimura et al., Biochemistry 1991; 30: 1957–64).Present data indicate that purified two-chain botrocetin binds to vWF from plasmas of patients with type IIA or IIB von Willebrand disease and its interaction is indistinguishable from that with vWF from normal individuals. However, an “activated complex” formed between botrocetin and IIB vWF expresses an enhanced biological activity for binding to GP Ib whereas the complex with IIA vWF has a decreased binding activity. Among several anti-vWF monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs) which inhibit ristocetin-induced platelet aggregation and/or vWF binding to GPIb, only two MoAbs (NMC-4 and RFF-VIII RAG:1) abolished direct binding between purified botrocetin and vWF. This suggests that they recognize an epitope(s) on the vWF molecule in close proximity to the botrocetin binding site.

Abstract
Numerous studies have reported the importance of microglial activation in various pathological conditions, whereas little attention has been given to the point for dynamics of microglial population under infection-induced inflammation. In the present study, the single systemic stimulation of 100 μg/kg lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced robust microglial proliferation only in the circumventricular organs (CVOs) and their neighboring brain regions. More than half of microglia similarly showed proliferative activity in the CVOs and their neighboring brain regions after 1 mg/kg LPS stimulation, while this stimulation expanded microglia-proliferating brain regions including the hypothalamus, medulla oblongata, and limbic system. Microglia proliferation resulted in a transient increase of microglial density, since their density almost returned to basal levels within 3 weeks. Divided microglia survived at the same rate as non-divided ones. Proliferating microglia frequently expressed a resident microglia marker Tmem119, indicating that increase of microglia density is due to the proliferation of resident microglia. Thus, the present study demonstrates that transient increase in microglia density depends on the brain region and dose of LPS during infection-induced inflammation and could provide a new insight on microglia functions in inflammation and pathogenesis of brain diseases.

Abstract
Microglia are the primary resident immune cells of the brain parenchyma and transform into the amoeboid form in the "activated state" under pathological conditions from the ramified form in the "resting state" under physiologically healthy conditions. In the present study, we found that microglia in the circumventricular organs (CVOs) of adult mice displayed the amoeboid form with fewer branched cellular processes even under normal conditions; however, those in other brain regions showed the ramified form, which is characterized by well-branched and dendritic cellular processes. Moreover, microglia in the CVOs showed the strong protein expression of the M1 markers CD16/32 and CD86 and M2 markers CD206 and Ym1 without any pathological stimulation. Thus, the present results indicate that microglia in the CVOs of adult mice are morphologically and functionally activated under normal conditions, possibly due to the specialized features of the CVOs, namely, the entry of blood-derived molecules into parenchyma through fenestrated capillaries and the presence of neural stem cells.

Abstract
The dedicator of cytokinesis (DOCK) family proteins are known as one of guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs), that contribute to cellular signaling processes by activating small G proteins. Although mammalian Zizimin is known to be a GEF for Cdc42 of Rho family small GTPase, its role in vivo is not well understood. Here we studied in vivo function of Drosophila Zizimin (Ziz). Knockdown of Ziz in eye imaginal discs induced the rough eye phenotype accompanied with fusion of ommatidia, loss of bristles and loss of pigments. Immunostaining analyses revealed that Ziz mainly localizes in the secondary pigment cells (SPCs) and tertiary pigment cells (TPCs) in pupal retinae. Ziz-knockdown induced SPC- and TPC-like cells with aberrant morphology in the pupal retina. Delta (Dl), a downstream target of EGFR signaling is known to regulate pigment cell differentiation. Loss-of-function mutation of Dl suppressed the rough eye phenotype and the defect in differentiation of SPCs and TPCs in Ziz-knockdown flies. Moreover, Ziz-knockdown increased Dl expression level especially in SPCs and TPCs. In addition, mutations of rhomboid-1 and roughoid that are activators of EGFR signaling pathway also suppressed both the rough eye phenotype and the defect in differentiation of SPCs and TPCs in Ziz-knockdown flies. Activation of EGFR signaling in Ziz-knockdown flies were further confirmed by immunostaining with anti-diphospho ERK IgG. These results indicate that Ziz negatively regulates the Dl expression in SPCs and TPCs to control differentiation of pigment cells and this regulation is mediated by EGFR signaling pathway.Key words: Zizimin, DOCK, EGFR signaling pathway, pigment cell, Drosophila.

Abstract
Oxytocin (OXT) and arginine vasopressin (AVP) neuropeptides in the neurohypophysis (NH) control lactation and body fluid homeostasis, respectively. Hypothalamic neurosecretory neurones project their axons from the supraoptic and paraventricular nuclei to the NH to make contact with the vascular surface and release OXT and AVP. The neurohypophysial vascular structure is unique because it has a wide perivascular space between the inner and outer basement membranes. However, the significance of this unique vascular structure remains unclear; therefore, we aimed to determine the functional significance of the perivascular space and its activity-dependent changes during salt loading in adult mice. The results obtained revealed that pericytes were the main resident cells and defined the profile of the perivascular space. Moreover, pericytes sometimes extended their cellular processes or 'perivascular protrusions' into neurohypophysial parenchyma between axonal terminals. The vascular permeability of low-molecular-weight (LMW) molecules was higher at perivascular protrusions than at the smooth vascular surface. Axonal terminals containing OXT and AVP were more likely to localise at perivascular protrusions than at the smooth vascular surface. Chronic salt loading with 2% NaCl significantly induced prominent changes in the shape of pericytes and also increased the number of perivascular protrusions and the surface area of the perivascular space together with elevations in the vascular permeability of LMW molecules. Collectively, these results indicate that the perivascular space of the NH acts as the main diffusion route for OXT and AVP and, in addition, changes in the shape of pericytes and perivascular reconstruction occur in response to an increased demand for neuropeptide release.

Abstract
The hypothalamic neurosecretory system synthesizes neuropeptides in hypothalamic nuclei and releases them from axonal terminals into the circulation in the neurohypophysis (NH) and median eminence (ME). This system plays a crucial role in regulating body fluid homeostasis and social behaviors as well as reproduction, growth, metabolism, and stress responses, and activity-dependent structural reorganization has been reported. Current knowledge on dynamic structural reorganization in the NH and ME, in which the axonal terminals of neurosecretory neurons directly contact the basement membrane (BM) of a fenestrated vasculature, is discussed herein. Glial cells, pituicytes in the NH and tanycytes in the ME, engulf axonal terminals and interpose their cellular processes between axonal terminals and the BM when hormonal demands are low. Increasing demands for neurosecretion result in the retraction of the cellular processes of glial cells from axonal terminals and the BM, permitting increased neurovascular contact. The shape conversion of pituicytes and tanycytes is mediated by neurotransmitters and sex steroid hormones, respectively. The NH and ME have a rough vascular BM profile of wide perivascular spaces and specialized extension structures called "perivascular protrusions." Perivascular protrusions, the insides of which are occupied by the cellular processes of vascular mural cells pericytes, contribute to increasing neurovascular contact and, thus, the efficient diffusion of hypothalamic neuropeptides. A chronic physiological stimulation has been shown to increase perivascular protrusions via the shape conversion of pericytes and the profile of the vascular surface. Continuous angiogenesis occurs in the NH and ME of healthy normal adult rodents depending on the signaling of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). The inhibition of VEGF signaling suppresses the proliferation of endothelial cells (ECs) and promotes their apoptosis, which results in decreases in the population of ECs and axonal terminals. Pituicytes and tanycytes are continuously replaced by the proliferation and differentiation of stem/progenitor cells, which may be regulated by matching those of ECs and axonal terminals. In conclusion, structural reorganization in the NH and ME is caused by the activity-dependent shape conversion of glial cells and vascular mural cells as well as the proliferation of endothelial and glial cells by angiogenesis and gliogenesis, respectively.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Nanoparticle bioceramics are being investigated for biomedical applications. We fabricated a regenerative scaffold comprising type I collagen and beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) nanoparticles. Fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) is a bioeffective signaling molecule that stimulates cell proliferation and wound healing. This study examined the effects, on bioactivity, of a nano-β-TCP/collagen scaffold loaded with FGF-2, particularly on periodontal tissue wound healing. MATERIAL AND METHODS Beta-tricalcium phosphate was pulverized into nanosize particles (84 nm) and was then dispersed. A nano-β-TCP scaffold was prepared by coating the surface of a collagen scaffold with a nanosize β-TCP dispersion. Scaffolds were characterized using scanning electron microscopy, compressive testing, cell seeding and rat subcutaneous implant testing. Then, nano-β-TCP scaffold, nano-β-TCP scaffold loaded with FGF-2 and noncoated collagen scaffold were implanted into a dog one-wall infrabony defect model. Histological observations were made at 10 d and 4 wk postsurgery. RESULTS Scanning electron microscopy images show that TCP nanoparticles were attached to collagen fibers. The nano-β-TCP scaffold showed higher compressive strength and cytocompatibility compared with the noncoated collagen scaffold. Rat subcutaneous implant tests showed that the DNA contents of infiltrating cells in the nano-β-TCP scaffold and the FGF-2-loaded scaffold were approximately 2.8-fold and 3.7-fold greater, respectively, than in the collagen scaffold. Histological samples from the periodontal defect model showed about five-fold greater periodontal tissue repair following implantation of the nano-β-TCP scaffold loaded with FGF-2 compared with the collagen scaffold. CONCLUSION The β-TCP nanoparticle coating strongly improved the collagen scaffold bioactivity. Nano-β-TCP scaffolds containing FGF-2 are anticipated for use in periodontal tissue engineering.

Abstract
The blood–brain barrier (BBB) generally consists of endothelial tight junction barriers that prevent the free entry of blood-derived substances, thereby maintaining the extracellular environment of the brain. However, the circumventricular organs (CVOs), which are located along the midlines of the brain ventricles, lack these endothelial barriers and have fenestrated capillaries; therefore, they have a number of essential functions, including the transduction of information between the blood circulation and brain. Previous studies have demonstrated the extensive contribution of the CVOs to body fluid and thermal homeostasis, energy balance, the chemoreception of blood-derived substances, and neuroinflammation. In this review, recent advances have been discussed in fenestrated capillary characterization and dynamic tissue reconstruction accompanied by angiogenesis and neurogliogenesis in the sensory CVOs of adult brains. The sensory CVOs, including the organum vasculosum of the lamina terminalis (OVLT), subfornical organ (SFO), and area postrema (AP), have size-selective and heterogeneous vascular permeabilities. Astrocyte-/tanycyte-like neural stem cells (NSCs) sense blood- and cerebrospinal fluid-derived information through the transient receptor potential vanilloid 1, a mechanical/osmotic receptor, Toll-like receptor 4, a lipopolysaccharide receptor, and Nax, a Na-sensing Na channel. They also express tight junction proteins and densely and tightly surround mature neurons to protect them from blood-derived neurotoxic substances, indicating that the NSCs of the CVOs perform BBB functions while maintaining the capacity to differentiate into new neurons and glial cells. In addition to neurogliogenesis, the density of fenestrated capillaries is regulated by angiogenesis, which is accompanied by the active proliferation and sprouting of endothelial cells. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) signaling may be involved in angiogenesis and neurogliogenesis, both of which affect vascular permeability. Thus, recent findings advocate novel concepts for the CVOs, which have the dynamic features of vascular and parenchymal tissues.

Abstract
Evidence have been accumulated that continuous oligodendrogenesis occurs in the adult mammalian brain. The fornix, projection and commissure pathway of hippocampal neurons, carries signals from the hippocampus to other parts of the brain and has critical role in memory and learning. However, basic characterization of adult oligodendrogenesis in this brain region is not well understood. In the present study, therefore, we aimed to examine the proliferation and differentiation of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) and the effect of acute inflammatory stimulation on oligodendrogenesis in the fornix of adult mouse. We demonstrated the proliferation of OPCs and a new generation of mature oligodendrocytes by using bromodeoxyuridine and Ki67 immunohistochemistry. Oligodendrogenesis of adult fornix was also demonstrated by using oligodendrocyte transcription factor 2 transgenic mouse. A single systemic administration of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) attenuated proliferation of OPCs in the fornix together with reduced proliferation of hippocampal neural stem/progenitor cells. Time course analysis showed that a single administration of LPS attenuated the proliferation of OPCs during 24-48 h. On the other hand, consecutive administration of LPS did not suppress proliferation of OPCs. The treatment of LPS did not affect differentiation of OPCs into mature oligodendrocytes. Treatment of a microglia inhibitor minocycline significantly attenuated basal proliferation of OPCs under normal condition. In conclusion, the present study indicates that continuous oligodendrogenesis occurs and a single administration of LPS transiently attenuates proliferation of OPCs without changing differentiation in the fornix of the adult mouse brains.
