Abstract
OBJECTIVE Glibenclamide, Sulfonylurea receptor 1 antagonist, reduces brain edema after cerebral hemorrhage. However, the effects of glibenclamide on microglial activation and inflammatory cell infiltration after cerebral hemorrhage are unclear. The present study investigated the effect of glibenclamide on microglial activation and inflammatory cell infiltration in a rat cerebral hemorrhage model. METHODS A collagenase intracerebral injection model was used to cause cerebral hemorrhage in rats. After injury, glibenclamide was continuously administered at 1.0μL/h for 24hours. We evaluated hematoma volume, brain edema, expression of ABCC8, galectin-3 and CD11b, and anti-Iba-1 antibody staining. RESULTS Glibenclamide significantly reduced water content. Meanwhile, glibenclamide significantly reduced expression of galectin-3 and CD11b in the cerebral cortex and putamen on the bleeding side. Immunohistochemical staining confirmed that glibenclamide attenuated activation of microglia around the hematoma. CONCLUSIONS Glibenclamide reduced microglial activation and infiltration of inflammatory cells, resulting in amelioration of cerebral edema.

Abstract
The reactivation of hepatitis B virus (HBV) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is currently a social problem. Our hospital has established a project team, which consisted of medical staff including doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and technicians, to prevent HBV reactivation and subsequent de novo hepatitis B in 2015. To verify the usefulness of the team, we aimed to examine the implementation rate of HBV screening tests in patients with RA in 2011, 2015, and 2018. We also examined the rate of HBV infection, as well as the rate of HBV reactivation during the course. In this study, medical records of patients who visited our hospital in 2011, 2015, and 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. HBV screening was completed when hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb), and hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb) were all examined. The prevalence of patients who completed HBV screening dramatically increased from 2.4% in 2011 to 79.1% in 2015 and 86.9% in 2018. Patients who completed the screening had significantly higher rates of liver dysfunction, methotrexate use, and use of biological disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs than those who did not. Of the 767 patients who completed HBV screening in 2018, 157 patients (20.5%) had previously resolved HBV infection (HBsAg-negative but HBsAb- and/or HBcAb-positive). During a mean follow-up of 41.0 months, reactivation of HBV was observed in 10 out of the 157 patients (6.4%); however, none developed de novo hepatitis B. In conclusion, our multidisciplinary approach to prevent de novo hepatitis B is considered useful.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Evaluation of two-dimensional (2D) speckle-tracking longitudinal strain (LS) is useful for assessing global and regional left ventricular (LV) dysfunction.
Purpose
The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that temporal changes in regional 2D-LS distribution, (i.e., changes in area and intensity of the negative strain), during the systolic period may reflect the LV activation sequence.
Methods
We studied 52 patients with an ejection fraction <35% who were classified into four groups: complete left bundle branch block (LBBB, QRS 162±17 ms, n=17); right ventricular pacing from inferior septum (RVP, QRS 180±29 ms, n=16); left VP from lateral branch of the coronary sinus (LVP, QRS 182±21 ms, n=9); and no conduction block (Narrow QRS, QRS 100±9 ms, n=19). Longitudinal strain was evaluated in three standard apical views, and then bulls-eye distribution maps were constructed every 50 ms from the QRS onset to aortic valve closing (AVC) and at the time of the end of QRS. Segments indicating negative strain at the end of QRS were regarded as an early contraction site. Segments with intensifying negativity of strain as it got closer to the AVC were regarded as a late contraction site.
Results
In patients with LBBB, negative strain appeared initially in the septum region. Then, the contracted area enlarged including the apical region, and the basal lateral region contracted late. On the other hand, Narrow QRS showed a few regional differences in strain at the end of QRS (standard deviation in 17-segments: Narrow QRS 1.3±0.4%*, LBBB 3.3±1.1%, RVP 3.2±1.0%, LVP 3.3±1.1%, *p<0.001), and contracted homogeneously during the systolic period. RVP and LVP showed negative strain at the end of QRS in septum and lateral regions respectively, with the contracted area becoming enlarged towards the opposite regions of the early contracted regions.
Conclusion
The 2D-LS distribution during the systolic period reflects the LV contraction process in patients with an altered ventricular activation sequence, and may have potential for identifying the regions of early activation site and subsequent activation propagation.

Abstract
We report a case of polycythaemia vera (PV) associated with IgA vasculitis. A 45-year-old man was admitted for evaluation of abdominal pain and palpable purpura. IgA vasculitis was diagnosed, and oral prednisolone therapy (30 mg/day) was initiated. On day 6, the patient developed left hemiparesis, and magnetic resonance imaging revealed acute cerebral infarction. Bone marrow biopsy results and the identification of a Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) mutation led to the diagnosis of PV. Despite steroid therapy, urine protein levels increased to 15 g/g・Cre. Renal biopsy demonstrated mild mesangial proliferation with IgA deposits, but immunosuppressive therapy was partially effective. This case suggests that PV can be a complication of IgA vasculitis and that preventive measures for thrombosis should be taken in such cases.

Abstract
A 36-year-old man who complained of epigastric pain was transferred to the emergency room. We performed contrast enhanced computed tomography (CT) but were unable to confirm a diagnosis at that time. Because this patient had symptoms of gallbladder inflammation following hospitalization, we reviewed the CT images. We found luminal obstruction between the celiac artery and proper hepatic artery due to celiac artery dissection in the images. Gangrenous cholecystitis was suspected based on the findings;therefore, the patient underwent emergency cholecystectomy. To the best of our knowledge, there are only a few reports on cases with celiac artery dissection and none of those with acalculous gangrenous cholecystitis. Here, we report an exceptionally rare case with celiac artery dissection.

Abstract
A 66-year-old man presented to his previous physician with epigastric discomfort in 2014. He was then referred to our hospital due to suspected primary malignant melanoma of the esophagus (PMME). A biopsy showed atypical cells containing melanin granules. A diagnosis of PMME was thus made. We investigated the endoscopic findings of the previous physician, which revealed a black point-like pigmentation at the same site since 2009. In 2010, black pigmentation was also observed at the same site. Although esophageal melanosis was suspected, no biopsy was performed. This case demonstrates the process by which esophageal melanomas develop into malignant melanomas.

Abstract
Implant surfaces should be modified to achieve excellent cell compatibility as well as antibacterial activity. Our previous study demonstrated that titanium plates anodized by being discharged in NaCl (Ti-Cl) exhibited high antibacterial activity. Since Ti-Cl was prepared with a NaCl solution, we hypothesized that Ti-Cl would exhibit low toxicity toward cells. The aims of this study were to characterize the surface of Ti-Cl and investigate the cell compatibility (MC3T3-E1 and L929 cells) of Ti-Cl. The results demonstrated that, since the TiCl3 formed on the Ti-Cl surface was hydrolyzed into HCl, HClO, and TiOH after immersion in pure distilled water, TiCl3 contributed to the antibacterial activity of Ti-Cl. On the other hand, TiO formed on the Ti-Cl surface enhanced cell extension and cell growth through a larger adsorption of fibronectin compared with the pure titanium control. These findings suggest that antibacterial titanium is a promising material for use in dental implant systems.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to examine the effects of Lactobacillus casei strain Shirota (LcS) on gut-brain interactions under stressful conditions. METHODS Three double-blind, placebo-controlled trials were conducted to examine the effects of LcS on psychological and physiological stress responses in healthy medical students under academic examination stress. Subjects received LcS-fermented milk or placebo daily for 8 weeks prior to taking a national standardized examination. Subjective anxiety scores, salivary cortisol levels, and the presence of physical symptoms during the intervention were pooled and analyzed. In the animal study, rats were given feed with or without LcS for 2 weeks, then submitted to water avoidance stress (WAS). Plasma corticosterone concentration and the expression of cFos and corticotropin releasing factor (CRF) in the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) were measured immediately after WAS. In an electrophysiological study, gastric vagal afferent nerve activity was monitored after intragastric administration of LcS to urethane-anesthetized rats. KEY RESULTS Academic stress-induced increases in salivary cortisol levels and the incidence rate of physical symptoms were significantly suppressed in the LcS group compared with the placebo group. In rats pretreated with LcS, WAS-induced increases in plasma corticosterone were significantly suppressed, and the number of CRF-expressing cells in the PVN was reduced. Intragastric administration of LcS stimulated gastric vagal afferent activity in a dose-dependent manner. CONCLUSIONS & INFERENCES These findings suggest that LcS may prevent hypersecretion of cortisol and physical symptoms under stressful conditions, possibly through vagal afferent signaling to the brain and reduced stress reactivity in the PVN.

Abstract
This pilot study investigated the effects of the probiotic Lactobacillus casei strain Shirota (LcS) on psychological, physiological, and physical stress responses in medical students undertaking an authorised nationwide examination for promotion. In a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, 24 and 23 healthy medical students consumed a fermented milk containing LcS and a placebo milk, respectively, once a day for 8 weeks until the day before the examination. Psychophysical state, salivary cortisol, faecal serotonin, and plasma L-tryptophan were analysed on 5 different sampling days (8 weeks before, 2 weeks before, 1 day before, immediately after, and 2 weeks after the examination). Physical symptoms were also recorded in a diary by subjects during the intervention period for 8 weeks. In association with a significant elevation of anxiety at 1 day before the examination, salivary cortisol and plasma L-tryptophan levels were significantly increased in only the placebo group (P<0.05). Two weeks after the examination, the LcS group had significantly higher faecal serotonin levels (P<0.05) than the placebo group. Moreover, the rate of subjects experiencing common abdominal and cold symptoms and total number of days experiencing these physical symptoms per subject were significantly lower in the LcS group than in the placebo group during the pre-examination period at 5-6 weeks (each P<0.05) and 7-8 weeks (each P<0.01) during the intervention period. Our results suggest that the daily consumption of fermented milk containing LcS may exert beneficial effects preventing the onset of physical symptoms in healthy subjects exposed to stressful situations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The characteristics of cell populations extracted from oral mucosal non-epithelial tissues and their ability to differentiate were evaluated in vitro as a potential source of cells for mandibular and corneal regeneration. MATERIALS AND METHODS Oral mucosal non-epithelial cells (OMNECs) were extracted from tissue samples and were studied by flow cytometry and RT-PCR. Cells differentiating into osteoblasts, adipocytes, chondrocytes, neurocytes, or keratocytes were characterized by RT-PCR and cell staining. RESULTS OMNECs expressed CD44, CD90, CD105, CD166, and STRO-1 antigens, which are markers for mesenchymal stem cells. In addition, Oct3/4, c-Myc, Nanog, KLF4, and Rex, which are expressed by embryonic or pluripotent stem cells, were detected by RT-PCR. Expression of CD49d, CD56, and PDGFRα, proteins closely associated with the neural crest, was observed in OMNECs, as was expression of Twist1, Sox9, Snail1 and Snail2, which are early neural crest and neural markers. Specific differentiation markers were expressed in OMNECs after differentiation into osteoblasts, adipocytes, chondrocytes, or keratocytes. CONCLUSIONS Populations of OMNECs may contain both mesenchymal stem cells and neural crest origin cells and are a potential cell source for autologous regeneration of mandibular or corneal stroma.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 can affect immune cells. However, the mechanism responsible for the favorable effects of 1(OH) vitamin D3, which becomes 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 in the liver, is not clear. The aim of this study is to analyze the immunological response of 1(OH) vitamin D3 supplementation in CH-C patients. DESIGN Forty-two CH-C patients were treated with 1(OH) vitamin D3/Peg-IFNα/RBV. Forty-two case-matched controls were treated with Peg-IFNα/RBV. The expression of Interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs)-mRNA in the liver biopsy samples and JFH-1 replicating Huh-7 cells were quantified by real-time PCR. Ten kinds of cytokines in the plasma were quantified during treatment by using a suspension beads array. A trans-well co-culture system with peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and Huh-7 cells was used to analyze the effect of 1(OH) vitamin D3. The activities of the Th1 response were compared between subjects treated with 1(OH) vitamin D3/Peg-IFN/RBV and those treated with Peg-IFN/RBV therapy alone. RESULTS 1(OH) vitamin D3/Peg-IFN/RBV treatment could induce rapid viral reduction, especially in IL28B T/T polymorphism. Several kinds of cytokines including IP-10 were significantly decreased after 4 weeks of 1(OH) vitamin D3 treatment (p<0.05). Th1 responses in the subjects treated with 1(OH) vitamin D3/Peg-IFN/RBV were significantly higher than those treated with Peg-IFN/RBV at 12 weeks after Peg-IFN/RBV therapy (p<0.05). The expression of ISGs in the patient's liver biopsy samples was significantly lower than in those treated without 1(OH) vitamin D3 (p<0.05). CONCLUSION 1(OH) vitamin D3 could improve the sensitivity of Peg-IFN/RBV therapy on HCV-infected hepatocytes by reducing the IP-10 production from PBMCs and ISGs expression in the liver.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The immunopathogenesis of dual chronic infection with hepatitis B virus and hepatitis C virus (HBV/HCV) remains unclear. The in vivo suppressive effects of each virus on the other have been reported. In this study we aimed to analyze the virological and immunological parameters of HBV/HCV coinfected patients during pegylated interferon/ribavirin (Peg-IFN/RBV) therapy. METHODS One patient with high HBV-DNA and high HCV-RNA titers (HBV-high/HCV-high) and 5 patients with low HBV-DNA and high HCV-RNA titers (HBV-low/HCV-high) were enrolled. Twenty patients monoinfected with HBV and 10 patients monoinfected with HCV were enrolled as control subjects.. In vitro cultures of Huh 7 cells with HBV/HCV dual infection were used to analyze the direct interaction of HBV/HCV. RESULTS Direct interaction of HBV clones and HCV could not be detected in the Huh-7 cells. In the HBV-high/HCV-high-patient, the HCV-RNA level gradually declined and HBV-DNA gradually increased during Peg-IFN/RBV therapy. Activated CD4- and CD8-positive T cells were increased at 1 month of Peg-IFN/RBV-therapy, but HBV-specific IFN-γ-secreting cells were not increased and HBV-specific interleukin (IL)-10 secreting cells were increased. The level of HBV- and HCV-specific IFN-γ-secreting cells in the HBV-high/HCV-high-patient was low in comparison to that in the HBV- or HCV-monoinfected patients. In the HBV-low/HCV-high-patient, HCV-RNA and HBV-DNA rapidly declined during Peg-IFN/RBV therapy. Activated CD4- and CD8-positive T cells were increased, and HBV- and HCV-specific IFN-γ-secreting cells were also increased during Peg-IFN/RBV-therapy. CONCLUSION The immunological responses of the HBV-high/HCV-high patient were low in comparison to the responses in HBV and HCV monoinfected patients. Moreover, the response of immune cells in the HBV-high/HCV-high patient during Peg-IFN/RBV therapy was insufficient to suppress HBV and HCV.

Abstract
Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) was originally identified from a rare subtype of non-Hodgkin's lymphomas carrying t(2;5)(p23;q35) translocation, where ALK was constitutively activated as a result of a fusion with nucleophosmin (NPM). Aberrant ALK fusion proteins were also generated in inflammatory fibrosarcoma and a subset of non-small-cell lung cancers, and these proteins are implicated in their pathogenesis. Recently, ALK has been demonstrated to be constitutively activated by gene mutations and/or amplifications in sporadic as well as familial cases of neuroblastoma. Here we describe another mechanism of aberrant ALK activation observed in a neuroblastoma-derived cell line (NB-1), in which a short-form ALK protein (ALK(del2-3)) having a truncated extracellular domain is overexpressed because of amplification of an abnormal ALK gene that lacks exons 2 and 3. ALK(del2-3) was autophosphorylated in NB-1 cells as well as in ALK(del2-3)-transduced cells and exhibited enhanced in vitro kinase activity compared with the wild-type kinase. ALK(del2-3)-transduced NIH3T3 cells exhibited increased colony-forming capacity in soft agar and tumorigenicity in nude mice. RNAi-mediated ALK knockdown resulted in the growth suppression of ALK(del2-3)-expressing cells, arguing for the oncogenic role of this mutant. Our findings provide a novel insight into the mechanism of deregulation of the ALK kinase and its roles in neuroblastoma pathogenesis.

Abstract
Current computer-aided engineering systems use numerical-simulation methods mainly as offline verification tools to reject designs that don't satisfy the required constraints, rather than as tools to guide users toward better designs. However, integrating real-time finite element method (FEM) into interactive geometric modeling can provide user guidance. During interactive editing, real-time feedback from numerical simulation guides users toward an improved design without tedious trial-and-error iterations. Careful reuse of previous computation results, such as meshes and matrices, on the basis of speed and accuracy trade-offs, have helped produce fast FEM analysis during interactive editing. Several 2D example applications and informal user studies show this approach's effectiveness. Such tools could help nonexpert users design objects that satisfy physical constraints and help those users understand the underlying physical properties.

Abstract
AbstractZnS nanocrystals doped with Mn2+ ions are prepared by a solution process and subsequent UV irradiation to produce the samples with different S/(Zn+Mn) ratios and/or surface modification by acrylic acids. Coordination states around Mn2+, ions were examined at 9 and 35 GHz by electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. The Mn2+ sites in the vicinity of 2- vacancies or carboxyl groups are observed at the frequencies more than 9 or 35 GHz, respectively, for nanocrystals, but are not for the bulk sample of 250 nm diameter. Such Mn2+ sites enhance the photoluminescence due to d-d transition of Mn2+ ions through energy transfer from S2- vacancies or carboxyl groups, excited simultaneously by a light of 350 nm for exciting ZnS.

Abstract
AbstractAddition of methacrylic acid (MA) during preparation of ZnS doped with Mn2+ (ZnS:Mn) increased the photoluminescence (PL) due to 4T1-6A1 transition of Mn2+. According to X-ray fluorescence analysis and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy, ion exchange between Zn2+ and Mn2+ through a preferential dissolution of Mn2+ was promoted by acidic additives. This caused that Mn ions were isolatedly incorporated into ZnS. The X-ray photoelectron spectra show that the intensity of S 2p3/2 peak due to S6+ increased relative to that of S2- by virtue of carboxylic groups. The intensities of PL peaks at 450 and 580 nm, corresponding to polymethacrylic acid and Mn2+, respectively, increased after heating at 80°C for 1 week. We conclude that MA plays important roles on selective leaching to increase the amount of isolated Mn2+ ions, chemical interaction between ZnS:Mn and MA and energy transfer to Mn2+, leading to the increase in PL intensity.

Abstract
Cerebral salt wasting (CSW) frequently occurs concomitantly with an aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). CSW induces excessive natriuresis and osmotic diuresis, and reduces the total volume of blood. We previously reported that a rat model with SAH induced by endovascular puncture (EP) exhibited CSW. Therefore, we investigated the relationship between the spread of bleeding in the subarachnoid space and the intensity of CSW. We also investigated the development of CSW in different SAH models. SAH was induced by EP or by 0.3 mL of blood injection (BI) into the cisterna magna. To evaluate the occurrence of CSW, urine was cumulatively collected at the onset of SAH to 6 h later and analyzed for sodium (Na) excretion. SAH was classified from grade 1 (no bleeding) to grade 4 (severe bleeding) based on the spread of bleeding in the subarachnoid space. In the EP model (SAH grade > 2) as the SAH grade increased, the volume of urine and Na excretion also significantly increased. Although the BI model rats exhibited SAH of grade 4, the volume of urine and Na excretion did not change. Therefore, our conclusion is that the spread of bleeding in the subarachnoid space may not cause CSW.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hydrogen sulfide is responsible for lysis of red blood cells and is a major compound for oral malodor. To clarify the production mechanism of hydrogen sulfide in Prevotella intermedia, we found an L-cysteine desulfhydrase gene (lcs) homologue on the genome database of P. intermedia ATCC25611 and characterized its gene product. METHODS The lcs gene homologue cloned into pGEX6p-1 vector was expressed in Escherichia coli and purified. Lcs activity was assayed by detection of the reaction products (hydrogen sulfide and pyruvate) or its derivatives from L-cysteine. Site-directed mutagenesis was used to convert an amino acid of the Lcs molecule. RESULTS The purified lcs gene product catalysed the degradation of L-cysteine to pyruvate, ammonia, and hydrogen sulfide, indicating that the protein is L-cysteine desulfhydrase. The enzyme required pyridoxal 5'-phosphate as a cofactor, and it was highly active at pH 7.0 and completely inhibited by ZnCl(2). The K(m) and V(max) of the enzyme were 0.7 mm and 4.2 micromol/min/mg, respectively. Replacement of Tyr-59, Tyr-118, Asp-198, and Lys-233 with any of the amino acids resulted in the complete disappearance of Lcs activity, implying that these amino acids are essential for enzyme activity. In addition, hydrogen sulfide produced by this enzyme lysed sheep red blood cells and modified hemoglobin. CONCLUSION These results show the enzymatic properties of L-cysteine desulfhydrase from P. intermedia ATCC25611 and also suggest that the Lcs enzyme, which produces hydrogen sulfide from L-cysteine, is closely associated with the pathogenesis of P. intermedia.

Abstract
We evaluated clinical efficacies of transvaginal mesh (TVM) reconstruction alone and those concomitant with a TVT/TOT sling for the treatment of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Between January 2006 and February 2007, 138 female patients with POP underwent TVM reconstruction. The mean age was 66.6 years (range: 52-84). Fourteen individuals were qualified as grade II in the POP quantification (POP-Q) system, 85 and 39 were grades III and IV, respectively. One hundred and seventeen of 138 (85 %) cases showed SUI. Twenty-one patients without SUI underwent TVM alone, and 117 cases with SUI underwent TVM concomitant with TVT/TOT sling. Mean operation time and intra-operative bleeding was 79 min (range: 25-177) and 74 ml (range: 10-429), respectively. Mean follow-up period is 5.3 months (range: 1-14). The vaginal prolapses were cured (grade 0) in 129 cases (93 %) after the surgery. Total inter-national prostate symptom score (IPSS), its QOL score, International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaires Short Form (ICIQ-SF) significantly improved (from 12.6 to 3.9; p < 0.0001, from 5.0 to 1.0; p < 0.0001, and from 6.1 to 2.5; p < 0.01, respectively). Six of 21 cases (29%) who underwent TVM alone showed postoperative de-novo SUI. In contrast, 116 cases (99%) who underwent TVM concomitant with TVT/TOT, experienced a cure of SUI. Maximum flow rate did not change postoperatively in the both groups. In conclusion, the short-term efficacies of TVM reconstruction for POP are excellent, and a concomitant TVT/TOT sling prevents postoperative SUI.
