Abstract
OBJECTIVE Exosome-like nanoparticles (ELNs), which are plant-derived extracellular membrane vesicles, can regulate mammalian gene expression. ELNs can cross the blood-brain barrier, making them potential therapeutic agents or drug-delivery carriers for neuroinflammation-related diseases. Here, we investigated the anti-neuroinflammatory potential of ELNs extracted from Allium tuberosum (A-ELNs). METHODS A-ELNs were extracted, and their miRNA profile was characterized. A-ELNs were also applied to BV-2 microglial and MG-6 cells derived from C57/BL6 mice stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS), followed by an examination of levels of inflammatory-related factors. To test their drug-carrying potential, A-ELNs were mixed with dexamethasone, an anti-inflammatory drug, to prepare dexamethasone-incorporated A-ELNs (Dex-A-ELNs). KEY FINDINGS A-ELNs showed a particle size of 145 ± 2 nm and characteristic miRNAs. A-ELNs significantly decreased the LPS-induced nitric oxide (NO) and inflammatory cytokines levels in BV-2 and MG-6 cells. The mRNA expression of heme oxygenase-1 was significantly increased, and that of inducible NO synthase and inflammatory cytokines was significantly decreased by A-ELNs in BV-2 cells. Dex-A-ELNs inhibited NO production in BV-2 cells more potently than either A-ELNs or dexamethasone alone. CONCLUSION A-ELNs can alleviate microglial inflammation. Their effects can be potentiated by incorporating anti-inflammatory drugs, such as dexamethasone, making them potential therapeutic agents or drug-delivery carriers for neuroinflammation.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Vulnerable patients receive a low-intensity, palliative treatment rather than the standard treatment. Defining vulnerability in terms of standard or reduced radiation intensity can result in appropriate radiotherapy for elderly cancer patients without excessive adverse events and poor outcomes. However, it is difficult to define vulnerability, because radiation oncologists hesitate to include vulnerable patients in clinical trials involving radical radiotherapy. We hypothesized that for elderly cancer patients without metastasis, vulnerability scores, obtained by geriatric assessment (GA), could help in predicting the reduction in radiation intensity determined by radiation oncologists based on their experience. MATERIALS/METHODS In this multicenter prospective study, we enrolled cancer patients (70 years or older) without metastasis. The reduction in radiation intensity was categorized into 3 groups as follows: i) standard schedule of radiotherapy, but conversion of irradiation fields, ii) standard irradiation fields, but converted schedule of radiotherapy, and iii) conversion of radiotherapy schedule and irradiation fields. Standard radiotherapy was defined as recommended doses and radiation fields according to the guidelines for the primary tumors analyzed. GA was performed by calculating geriatric 8 (G8) and vulnerable elders survey (VES-13) scores before radiotherapy and 3-5 and 8-16 weeks after completion of radiotherapy. The primary endpoint was to evaluate the correlation between vulnerability assessed by G8 and change in radiation intensity. RESULTS Between November 2020 and February 2022, 317 patients were included in this study at 13 centers in Japan. The median age was 77 (range, 70-90) years. The primary cancer sites were head and neck, esophagus, lungs, breasts, pancreas, bladder, uterus, and prostate in 63, 22, 62, 48, 6, 5, 26, and 85 patients, respectively. High-precision radiotherapy was performed for 199 patients (63%). Of the 31 patients (10%) whose radiation intensity was reduced, 14, 9, and 8 patients were provided i, ii, and iii category, respectively. Planned radiotherapy was completed for 312 patients (98%). G8 and VES-13 vulnerability scores were obtained for 201 and 61 patients, respectively, before radiotherapy. The mean G8 and VES-13 scores were 13.3 ± 2.4 and 1.8 ± 1.8, 12.9 ± 2.6 and 2.0 ± 2.0, and 13.4 ± 2.4 and 2.0 ± 1.9 before radiotherapy and 3-5 and 8-16 weeks after completion of radiotherapy, respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed that reduction in radiation intensity was significantly associated with vulnerability assessed using VES-13 (p < 0.001) but not G8 (p = 0.06). CONCLUSION An excellent completion rate was obtained for planned radiotherapy, and vulnerability assessed using VES-13, not G8, was associated with the reduction in intensity of radiotherapy.

Abstract
The T2K experiment presents new measurements of neutrino oscillation parameters using 19.7 ( 16.3 ) × 10 20 protons on target (POT) in (anti-)neutrino mode at the far detector (FD). Compared to the previous analysis, an additional 4.7 × 10 20 POT neutrino data was collected at the FD. Significant improvements were made to the analysis methodology, with the near-detector analysis introducing new selections and using more than double the data. Additionally, this is the first T2K oscillation analysis to use NA61/SHINE data on a replica of the T2K target to tune the neutrino flux model, and the neutrino interaction model was improved to include new nuclear effects and calculations. Frequentist and Bayesian analyses are presented, including results on sin 2 θ 13 and the impact of priors on the δ CP measurement. Both analyses prefer the normal mass ordering and upper octant of sin 2 θ 23 with a nearly maximally CP-violating phase. Assuming the normal ordering and using the constraint on sin 2 θ 13 from reactors, sin 2 θ 23 = 0 . 561 - 0.032 + 0.021 using Feldman-Cousins corrected intervals, and Δ m 32 2 = 2 . 494 - 0.058 + 0.041 × 10 - 3 eV 2 using constant Δ χ 2 intervals. The CP-violating phase is constrained to δ CP = - 1 . 97 - 0.70 + 0.97 using Feldman-Cousins corrected intervals, and δ CP = 0 , π is excluded at more than 90% confidence level. A Jarlskog invariant of zero is excluded at more than 2 σ credible level using a flat prior in δ CP , and just below 2 σ using a flat prior in sin δ CP . When the external constraint on sin 2 θ 13 is removed, sin 2 θ 13 = 28 . 0 - 6.5 + 2.8 × 10 - 3 , in agreement with measurements from reactor experiments. These results are consistent with previous T2K analyses.

Abstract
Aberrant melanin overproduction can significantly impact an individual's appearance and cause mental and psychological distress. Current inhibitors of melanin production exert harmful side effects due to inadequate selectivity; thus a need to develop more selective melanin synthesis inhibitors is necessary. Extracellular vesicles are important agents of intercellular signalling in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Recently, plant-derived nanoparticles, similar to mammalian exosomes, have attracted attention for their use in health research. In this study, to investigate the potential of plant-derived exosome-like nanoparticles (ELNs) as inhibitors of melanin production, we used hot water to extract ELNs from the rhizome of Atractylodes lancea (A-ELNs). The size of A-ENLs ranged from 34 to 401 nm and carried three microRNA: ath-miR166f, ath-miR162a-5p, and ath-miR162b-5p. These A-ENLs were applied to B16-F10 melanoma cells treated with α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). After A-ELNs were taken up by B16-F10 cells, their melanin levels were significantly reduced. Furthermore, A-ELNs significantly reduced tyrosinase activity in B16-F10 cells and mRNA expression of microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (Mitf), tyrosinase, tyrosinase-related protein 1, and DOPA chrome tautomerase. These results suggest that A-ELN suppresses melanogenic enzymes expression by downregulating Mitf, thereby inhibiting melanin synthesis. Hence, A-ELN can be developed into a novel topical drug after additional studies and optimization.

Abstract
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are promising cell sources for regenerative medicine and disease modeling. iPSCs are commonly established by introducing the defined reprogramming factors Oct4, Sox2, Klf4, and c-Myc. However, iPSC reprogramming efficiency remains low. Although recent studies have identified microRNAs that contribute to efficient reprogramming, the underlying molecular mechanisms are not completely understood. miR-17-92 is highly expressed in embryonic stem cells and may play an important role in regulating stem cell properties. Therefore, we examined the role of miR-17-92 in the induction of mouse iPSC production. c-Myc-mediated miR-17-92 upregulation increased reprogramming efficiency, whereas CRISPR/Cas9-based deletion of the miR-17-92 cluster decreased reprogramming efficiency. A combination of in silico and microarray analyses revealed that Pten and cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1 (known as p21) are common target genes of miR-17 and miR-20a, which are transcribed from the miR-17-92 cluster. Moreover, miR-17-92 downregulated p21 in the early phase and PTEN in the mid-to-late phase of reprogramming. These downregulations were perturbed by introducing the 3' UTR of PTEN and p21, respectively, suggesting that PTEN and p21 mRNAs are competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNA) against miR-17-92. Collectively, we propose that the c-Myc-mediated expression of miR-17-92 is involved in iPSC reprogramming through the phase-dependent inhibition of PTEN and p21 in a ceRNA manner, thus elucidating an underlying mechanism of iPSC reprogramming.

Abstract
Overactive bladder (OAB) is a frequent chronic disorder which impairs quality of life by frequent, uncontrollable urination. Newly developed selectiveβ 3-adrenoceptor agonists (sβ 3-agonists) have the same efficacy in treating OAB but significantly fewer side effects than the traditionally used anti-muscarinics. However, safety data on these compounds are scarce. In this study, we analysed the occurrence of adverse effects in patients taking sβ 3-agonists and their characteristics using the JADER database. The most frequently reported adverse effect associated with the use of sβ 3-agonists was urinary retention [mirabegron; crude reporting odds ratios (ROR): 62.1, 95% confidence interval (CI): 52.0-73.6, P<0.001, vibegron; crude ROR: 250, 95% CI : 134-483, P<0.001]. Data from patients with urinary retention were stratified by sex. In both men and women, the rate of urinary retention was higher when using the mirabegron/anti-muscarinic drug when compared to mirabegron monotherapy; its occurrence was higher in men with a history of benign prostatic hypertrophy than in those without. Weibull analysis showed that approximately 50% of sβ 3 agonist-induced urinary retention occurred within 15 days after initiation of treatment, and then gradually decreased. Although sβ 3-agonists are useful against OAB, they may induce several side effects, especially urinary retention, which can further evolve into more severe conditions. Urinary retention occurs more frequently in patients concomitantly taking medication that either increases urethral resistance or has organic factors that block the urethra. When using sβ 3-agonists, the concomitantly used medications and underlying diseases should be thoroughly reviewed, and safety monitoring should be instituted early during the treatment.

Abstract
Nerve inflammation is linked to the development of various neurological disorders. This study aimed to examine whether Glycyrrhizae Radix effectively influences the duration of the pentobarbital-induced loss of righting reflex, which may increase in a mouse model of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced nerve inflammation and diazepam-induced γ-aminobutyric acid receptor hypersensitivity. Furthermore, we examined the anti-inflammatory effects of Glycyrrhizae Radix extract on LPS-stimulated BV2 microglial cells, in vitro. Treatment with Glycyrrhizae Radix significantly decreased the duration of pentobarbital-induced loss of righting reflex in the mouse model. Furthermore, treatment with Glycyrrhizae Radix significantly attenuated the LPS-induced increases in interleukin-1β, interleukin-6, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha at the mRNA level, and it significantly reduced the number of ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule-1-positive cells in the hippocampal dentate gyrus 24 h after LPS treatment. Treatment with Glycyrrhizae Radix also suppressed the release of nitric oxide, interleukin-1β, interleukin-6, and tumor necrosis factor protein in culture supernatants of LPS-stimulated BV2 cells. In addition, glycyrrhizic acid and liquiritin, active ingredients of Glycyrrhizae Radix extract, reduced the duration of pentobarbital-induced loss of righting reflex. These findings suggest that Glycyrrhizae Radix, as well as its active ingredients, glycyrrhizic acid and liquiritin, may be effective therapeutic agents for the treatment of nerve inflammation-induced neurological disorders.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Canonical Wnt signaling is involved in a variety of biological processes including stem cell renewal and differentiation, embryonic development, and tissue regeneration. Previous studies reported the stage-specific roles of the Wnt signaling in heart development. Canonical Wnt signal activation by recombinant Wnt3a in the early phase of differentiation enhances the efficiency of myocardial cell production from pluripotent stem cells. However, the hydrophobicity of Wnt proteins results in high cost to produce the recombinant proteins and presents an obstacle to their preparation and application for therapeutics, cell therapy, or molecular analysis of Wnt signaling. METHODS To solve this problem, we generated an inexpensive molecule-responsive differentiation-inducing chimeric antigen receptor (designated as diCAR) that can activate Wnt3a signaling. The extracellular domains of low-density-lipoprotein receptor-related protein 6 (LRP6) and frizzeled-8 (FZD8) were replaced with single-chain Fv of anti-fluorescein (FL) antibody, which can respond to FL-conjugated bovine serum albumin (BSA-FL) as a cognate ligand. We then analyzed the effect of this diCAR on Wnt signal activation and cardiomyocyte differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells in response to BSA-FL treatment. RESULTS Embryonic stem cell lines stably expressing this paired diCAR, named Wnt3a-diCAR, showed TCF/β-catenin-dependent transactivation by BSA-FL in a dose-dependent manner. Treatment with either Wnt3a recombinant protein or BSA-FL in the early phase of differentiation revealed similar changes of global gene expressions and resulted in efficient myocardial cell differentiation. Furthermore, BSA-FL-mediated signal activation was not affected by a Wnt3a antagonist, Dkk1, suggesting that the signal transduction via Wnt3a-diCAR is independent of endogenous LRP6 or FZD8. CONCLUSION We anticipate that Wnt3a-diCAR enables target-specific signal activation, and could be an economical and powerful tool for stem cell-based regeneration therapy.

Abstract
We report a search for cosmic-ray boosted dark matter with protons using the 0.37 megaton×years data collected at Super-Kamiokande experiment during the 1996-2018 period (SKI-IV phase). We searched for an excess of proton recoils above the atmospheric neutrino background from the vicinity of the Galactic Center. No such excess is observed, and limits are calculated for two reference models of dark matter with either a constant interaction cross section or through a scalar mediator. This is the first experimental search for boosted dark matter with hadrons using directional information. The results present the most stringent limits on cosmic-ray boosted dark matter and exclude the dark matter-nucleon elastic scattering cross section between 10^{-33}cm^{2} and 10^{-27}cm^{2} for dark matter mass from 1 MeV/c^{2} to 300 MeV/c^{2}.

Abstract
Selenium is an essential trace element and its deficiency causes myositis, myocardial damage, and other symptoms. Patients receiving long-term intravenous nutrition or tube-feeding in particular are deficient in essential trace elements, including selenium, and require regular supplementation. In Japan, injectable selenium-containing products are listed on the National Health Insurance drug price list, and oral solutions are prepared and used in hospitals. However, these formulations have problems related to preservation and require complicated administration procedures. In this study, we developed a new fast-disintegrating tablet formulation of selenium, using SmartEx® (D-mannitol·low substituted hydroxypropylcellulose (L-HPC)·fully hydrolyzed polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) mixture) as a coprocessing additive, that can be administered orally or by feeding tube. The tablet formulation had excellent disintegrable capability, sufficient hardness, and did not cause tube blockage when administered in the simple suspension method. In addition, the tablet formulation showed no changes in properties in an accelerated test without packaging for 42 d, indicating that it could be stored for a long period. Fast-disintegrating tablets prepared with SmartEx® are expected to improve the adherence and quality of life of patients who require selenium supplementation.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The biological effects of low-dose radiation from cardiac imaging or intervention remain largely unknown. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of ionized radiation from cardiac catheterization on genomic DNA integrity and inflammatory cytokines in patients and operators.
Methods
Peripheral mononuclear cells (MNCs) were isolated from patients (n=52) and operators (n=35) before and after coronary angiography and/or percutaneous coronary intervention. Expression of gammaH2AX, a marker for DNA double-strand breaks, was measured by immunofluorescence. Dicentric chromosomes (DICs), a form of chromosome aberrations, were assayed using a fluorescent in situ hybridization technique.
Results
In the patient MNCs, the numbers of gammaH2AX foci and DICs increased after cardiac catheterization by 101±75% and 28±99%, respectively (P<0.05 for both). The mRNA expressions of interleukin (IL)-1α, IL-1β, leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and caspase-1 were significantly increased by radiation exposure from cardiac catheterization. The increase in IL-1β was significantly correlated with that of gammaH2AX, but not with dose area product. In the operators, neither gammaH2AX foci nor DICs level was changed, but IL-1β mRNA was significantly increased. Protein expression of IkappaBα was significantly decreased in both groups.
Conclusions
DNA damage was increased in the MNCs of patients, but not of operators, who underwent cardiac catheterization. Inflammatory cytokines were increased both in the patients and operators, presumably through activation of NF-kappaB. Further efforts to reduce radiation exposure from cardiac catheterization are necessary both for patients and operators.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypoxia has been noted as a key factor for induction and maintenance of cancer stemness thereby leading to therapy resistance. Three-dimensional (3D) spheroid models demonstrate a heterogeneity of hypoxic regions replicating the in vivo situation within tumors. Utilizing an established 3D spheroid model, we investigated whether extrinsic hypoxia reinforced chemoresistance in malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) spheroids. MATERIALS AND METHODS Tumor spheres were generated from Meso-1 (a typical human MPM cell line) cells having high spheroid-forming ability. To induce hypoxia condition, we utilized a hypoxia chamber with regulation of O2 and CO2 levels. Cell viability was estimated by a WST-8 assay. Real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blot were performed to evaluate the expression at mRNA and protein levels. RESULTS Compared with cells cultured in the two-dimensional monolayer model, tumor sphere cells showed elevated mRNA levels of cancer stemness markers (CD26, CD44 and ABCG2) and protein levels of the stemness and hypoxia adaptation markers (ABCG2, ALDH1A1 and HIFs). Correlating with this, 3D spheroid cells were more resistant to permetrexed and topotecan than the two-dimensional cells, indicative of their potential for hypoxic adaptation. Furthermore, significantly stronger resistance to both chemotherapeutic agents was observed in spheroid cells upon hypoxic challenge compared to spheroid cells under normoxia. CONCLUSION From the present data, it is concluded that hypoxia adaptation of MPM cells from tumor spheres could enhance their chemoresistance.

Abstract
In obese patients with type 2 diabetes, reduced insulin sensitivity, increased production of inflammatory cytokines, and increased oxidative stress were observed, which lead to decreased protein synthesis and increased proteolysis in the skeletal muscles. Juzentaihoto (JTT) is herbal medicine and we have previously reported that the administration of JTT hot water extract alleviates skeletal muscle atrophy in a mouse model with streptozotocin-induced type 1 diabetes. In this study, we evaluated the inhibitory effects of JTT on muscle atrophy in a mouse model with obesity and type 2 diabetes. JTT was administered to KKAy mice with type 2 diabetic obesity and its effects on the skeletal muscles were evaluated. After JTT administration in KKAy mice, the wet weight and muscle fibre cross-sectional area of gastrocnemius increased and the time duration of exercise in the rotarod test improved. In addition, the serum levels of tumour necrosis factor-α and interleukin-6 decreased, adiponectin levels increased, and homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance improved. Furthermore, JTT administration decreased the mRNA levels of ubiquitin ligase (atrogin-1, muscle RING-finger protein-1), increased the mRNA levels of Sirtuin1 in gastrocnemius. Our results suggest that JTT improves insulin resistance, suppresses inflammation, and reduces oxidative stress in KKAy mice, thereby suppressing skeletal muscle atrophy. JTT administration in clinical practice is expected to improve muscle atrophy in patients with obesity and type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
Aggression is the most common adverse effect of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs). This study aimed to investigate the association of aggression with AED use. The reporting odds ratio (ROR) from adverse event reports, submitted to the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report database between 2004 and 2020, was used to calculate and investigate the association between AEDs and aggression. We also analyzed the association of aggression with the combined use of AEDs and the relationship between AED-associated aggression and patient characteristics. A total of 433 patients developed aggression. Significant aggression signals were detected for perampanel (crude ROR: 325.04, 95% confidence interval (CI): 118.48-752.58, p < 0.01), levetiracetam (crude ROR: 17.14, 95% CI: 10.33-26.90, p < 0.01), lacosamide (crude ROR: 16.90, 95% CI: 2.02-62.51, p < 0.01), lamotrigine (crude ROR: 15.98, 95% CI: 9.99-24.39, p < 0.01), valproate (crude ROR: 6.68, 95% CI: 4.27-10.02, p < 0.01), and carbamazepine (crude ROR: 2.47, 95% CI: 1.17-4.59, p < 0.01). The combined therapy with perampanel and levetiracetam had a significant aggression signal (adjusted ROR: 25.90, 95% CI: 1.14-59.10, p < 0.01). In addition, we found that aggression frequently occurred in patients <60 year (adjusted ROR: 2.88, 95% CI: 1.49-5.56, p < 0.01) treated with levetiracetam. These results may be useful for minimizing the risk of aggression during the treatment of AEDs.

Abstract
Processed aconite root (PA), the tuberous root of Aconitum carmichaelii prepared by autoclaving, is a crude drug used in Japanese traditional Kampo medicine and traditional Chinese medicine for the symptoms of kidney deficiency, that is related to the muscle atrophy in modern medicine. The objective of the present study is to evaluate the effectiveness of PA on muscle atrophy and to find its active ingredients using dexamethasone-induced muscle ring finger protein-1 (MuRF1) mRNA expression in murine myoblast C2C12 cells. Dexamethasone-induced MuRF1 expression was significantly suppressed by methanol-soluble part of boiling water extract of PA in a concentration-dependent manner with its IC50 value of 1.5 mg/ml. By the activity-guided fractionations of PA extract using the partition between organic solvents and its aqueous solution, the activity of PA did not transfer into the fraction containing aconitine-type diterpenoid alkaloids but into BuOH layer. Then, we found higenamine and salsolinol as the active ingredients in PA. Higenamine and salsolinol significantly suppressed dexamethasone-induced MuRF1 expression, and their IC50 values were 0.49 and 50 µM, respectively. The contents of higenamine and salsolinol in the decoctions of commercially available fourteen PA products are 0.12 and 14 µg/ml as the average values, and varied with the coefficient of variation (CV) values of 97 and 63%, respectively. Higenamine also significantly suppressed dexamethasone-induced mRNA expressions of muscle atrophy F-box protein (MAFbx)/atrogin1, casitas B-lineage lymphoma-b (Cbl-b), troponin, branched-chain amino acid aminotransferase 2 (BCAT2), and Bcl-2 binding and pro-apoptotic protein3 (Bnip3). Although the quality control of PA is regulated by the contents of diterpene alkaloids, salsolinol and higenamine can be used as the marker compounds to certificate the pharmacological activities of PA.

Abstract
Neuroinflammation is associated with the development of hypoactive delirium, which results in poor clinical outcomes. Drugs effective against hypoactive sur have not yet been established. Yokukansan has an anti-neuroinflammatory effect, making it potentially effective against hypoactive delirium. This study aimed to examine the effect of Yokukansan on the pentobarbital-induced loss of righting reflex duration extended with lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced neuroinflammation and diazepam-induced gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor stimulation in a mouse model. The active ingredients in Yokukansan and its anti-neuroinflammatory effect on the hippocampus were also investigated. Furthermore, we examined the in vitro anti-inflammatory effects of Yokukansan on LPS-stimulated BV2 cells, a murine microglial cell line. Findings revealed that treatment with Yokukansan significantly decreased the duration of pentobarbital-induced loss of righting reflex by attenuating the LPS-induced increase in interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha levels in the hippocampus. Moreover, treatment with Yokukansan significantly decreased the number of ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule-1-positive cells in the hippocampal dentate gyrus after 24 h of LPS administration. In addition, glycyrrhizic acid, an active ingredient in Yokukansan, partially decreased the duration of pentobarbital-induced loss of righting reflex. Treatment with Yokukansan also suppressed the expression of inducible nitric oxide, interleukin-6, and tumor necrosis factor mRNA in LPS-stimulated BV2 cells. Thus, these findings suggest that Yokukansan and glycyrrhizic acid may be effective therapeutic agents for treating neuroinflammation-induced hypoactive delirium.

Abstract
Sarcopenic obesity is associated with increased visceral fat and decreased muscle mass, resulting in decreased insulin sensitivity, increased production of inflammatory cytokines, and oxidative stress. In this study, we first evaluated the effects of herbal medicines on the transcriptional activity of the Sirtuin 1 (sirt1) promoter in vitro as an indicator of their therapeutic effect. Our data suggested that hot water Saikokeishikankyoto (SKK) extracts increased sirt1 transcriptional activity in vitro, identifying it as a candidate therapeutic for evaluation in the KKAy type 2 diabetic obesity mouse model. These in vivo evaluations revealed that SKK treatment increased the wet weight and muscle fiber content in cross sections of the gastrocnemius muscle (GA) and restored motor function in these animals. In addition, SKK treatment reduced tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα) expression in the sera and suppressed Atrogin1 and MuRF1 transcription in the GA samples. This treatment also increased sirt1 expression in these tissues. These results suggest that SKK inhibits skeletal muscle atrophy and improves motor function in KKAy mice by suppressing inflammation. In actual clinical practice, SKK is expected to inhibit muscle atrophy and improve motor dysfunction in sarcopenic obesity.

Abstract
Individual differences in gut microbiota can affect the pharmacokinetics of drugs. Yokukansan is a traditional Japanese kampo medicine used to treat peripheral symptoms of dementia and delirium. A study examining the pharmacokinetics of the components of yokukansan reported large individual differences in the pharmacokinetics of glycyrrhizic acid (GL). It is known that GL is metabolized by intestinal bacteria to glycyrrhetinic acid (GA), which is absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract. Thus, the gut microbiota may affect GL pharmacokinetics. We aimed to clarify the relationship between the gut microbiota composition and pharmacokinetics of GL in yokukansan. Mice were orally administered yokukansan, following the administration of various antibiotics, and the plasma concentration of GA and composition of gut microbiota were measured. The GA plasma concentration was low in mice treated with amoxicillin and vancomycin. The composition of gut microbiota revealed a different pattern from that of the control group. Mice with low plasma levels of GA had lower levels of the phylum Bacteroides and Firmicutes. Additionally, bacteria, such as those belonging to the genera Parabaceroides, Bacteroides, Ruminococcus and an unknown genus in families Lachnospiraceae and Ruminococcaceae, exerted positive correlations between the gene copies and plasma GA levels. These bacteria may contribute to the absorption of GA in the gastrointestinal tract, and multiple bacteria may be involved in GL pharmacokinetics. The pharmacokinetics of GL may be predicted by evaluating the composition of gut bacteria, rather than by evaluating the amount of a single bacterium.

Abstract
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) play important roles in acid production and flavor formation in fermented dairy products. Lactic acid bacteria strains with distinct characteristics confer unique features to products. Diverse LAB have been identified in raw milk and traditional fermented milk prepared from raw milk. However, little is known about LAB in raw milk in Japan. To preserve diverse LAB as potential starters or probiotics for future use, we have isolated and identified various kinds of LAB from raw milk produced in Japan. In this study, we focused on Lactobacillus delbrueckii, one of the most important species in the dairy industry. We identified L. delbrueckii subspecies isolated from raw milk in Hokkaido, Japan, by analyzing intraspecific diversity using 4 distinct methods, hsp60 cluster analysis, multilocus sequence analysis, core-genome analysis, and whole-genome analysis based on average nucleotide identity. The subspecies distribution and a new dominant subset of L. delbrueckii from raw milk in Japan were revealed. The discovery of new strains with different genotypes is important for understanding the geographic distribution and characteristics of the bacteria and further their use as a microbial resource with the potential to express unconventional flavors and functionalities. The strains identified in this study may have practical applications in the development of fermented dairy products.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Use of 5-aminolevulinic acid for photodynamic malignant tumor diagnosis reportedly causes intraoperative hypotension (systolic blood pressure < 70 mmHg) during urologic surgery. However, its association with intraoperative hypotension in malignant glioma surgery and underlying mechanisms has not yet been elucidated.. This study aimed to investigate whether 5-aminolevulinic acid administration is associated with intraoperative hypotension in malignant glioma surgery and explore the mechanisms of 5-aminolevulinic acid-induced hypotension in vitro. METHODS In this retrospective multicenter cohort study, we investigated intracellular nitric oxide as a candidate mediator of hypotension in response to 5-aminolevulinic acid in vitro in human umbilical vein endothelial cell cultures. RESULTS Of 142 patients, 94 underwent 5-aminolevulinic acid-guided surgery. Systolic blood pressure was significantly lower throughout surgery with 5-aminolevulinic acid administration. 5-Aminolevulinic acid administration was an independent risk factor for intraoperative hypotension according to multivariable logistic regression analysis (89% vs. 56%; odds ratio = 6.72, 95% confidence interval [2.05-22.1], P = 002). In subgroup analysis of the 5-aminolevulinic acid group, increasing age and use of renin-angiotensin system inhibitors had a synergistic effect with 5-aminolevulinic acid on decreased blood pressure. In the vascular endothelial cell culture study, 5-aminolevulinic acid induced a significant increase in intracellular nitric oxide generation. CONCLUSIONS 5-Aminolevulinic acid administration was associated with intraoperative hypotension in malignant glioma surgery, with increasing age and use of renin-angiotensin system inhibitors boosting the blood pressure-lowering effect of 5-aminolevulinic acid. According to in vitro results, the low blood pressure induced by 5-aminolevulinic acid may be mediated by a nitric oxide increase in vascular endothelial cells.

Abstract
Sarcopenia is a disease whose symptoms include decreased muscle mass and weakened muscle strength with age. In sarcopenia, decreased production of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) increases ubiquitin ligases, such as Atrogin1 and Muscle RING-Finger Protein-1 (MuRF1), by activating forkhead box O (FOXO), and inflammatory cytokines and oxidative stress increase the expression of ubiquitin ligases by activating the transcription factor nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB). In addition, increased levels of ubiquitin ligases cause skeletal muscle atrophy. Conversely, sirtuin 1 (Sirt1) is known to regulate the expression of ubiquitin ligases by suppressing the activities of NF-κB and FOXO. In this study, we evaluated the effect that juzentaihoto hot water extract (JTT) has on skeletal muscle atrophy and motor function by administering it to senescence-accelerated mouse prone-8 (SAMP8). The group treated with JTT displayed larger gastrocnemius muscle (GA) and extensor digitorum longus (EDL) weights, larger GA muscle fiber cross-sectional areas, and motor function decline during rota-rod tests. JTT also increased IGF-1 serum levels, as well as mRNA Sirt1 levels in GA. Serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-6, and mRNA levels of Atrogin1 and MuRF1 in GA were reduced by JTT. The muscle fiber cross-sectional area of GA was correlated with the mRNA levels of Sirt1 in GA. The results of this study suggested that JTT administration suppresses skeletal muscle atrophy and motor function decline in SAMP8 mice. This effect may be associated with the increased expression levels of Sirt1 and IGF-1 by JTT.

Abstract
Yokukansan is a Kampo formula that is commonly used by the elderly because it is expected to improve peripheral symptoms of dementia and delirium. However, side effects from its use are frequently reported in the elderly. In particular, pseudoaldosteronism caused by the licorice contained in yokukansan leads to hypertension, hypokalemia, and muscle weakness, which may result in death. This study aimed to identify the risk factors of pseudoaldosteronism with yokukansan use. Using cases reported in the Japanese Adverse Drug Report (JADER) database, the reporting odds ratio (ROR) was calculated and compared to assess the risk of pseudoaldosteronism for each licorice-containing Kampo formula. We also analyzed the risk factors for pseudoaldosteronism in patients taking yokukansan. Yokukansan (ROR 2.4, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.9-2.8; p < 0.001) had a higher risk of pseudoaldosteronism than that of other licorice-containing Kampo formulas. Furthermore, the results of a logistic regression analysis in patients taking yokukansan showed that the licorice dose (OR 1.5, 95% CI 1.2-2.0; p < 0.01), older age (<70 years, OR 5.9, 95% CI 1.8-20; p < 0.01), dementia (OR 2.8, 95% CI 1.6-4.9; p < 0.001), low body weight (<50 kg, OR 2.2, 95% CI 1.1-3.5; p = 0.034) were risk factors for pseudoaldosteronism, Although not significant, treatment with loop diuretics (OR 1.8, 95% CI 0.98-3.5; p = 0.059) tended to increase the risk of pseudoaldosteronism. In summary, patients must understand the risk factors when considering taking yokukansan and reduce the licorice dose they consume.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Lateral radiography of the knee joint is frequently performed; however, the retake rate is high owing to positioning errors. Therefore, in this study, to reduce the required number and time of image retakes, we developed a system that can classify the tilting directions of lateral knee radiographs and evaluated the accuracy of the proposed method. METHODS Using our system, the tilting directions of a lateral knee radiographs were classified into four direction categories. The system was developed by training the DCNN based on 50 cases of Raysum images and tested on three types test dataset; ten more cases of Raysum images, one case of flexed knee joint phantom images and 14 rejected knee joint radiographs. To train a deep convolutional neural network (DCNN), we employed Raysum images created via three-dimensional (3D) X-ray computed tomography (CT); 11 520 Raysum images were created from 60 cases of 3D CT data by changing the projection angles. Thereby, we obtained pseudo images attached with correct labels that are essential for training. RESULTS The overall accuracy on each test dataset was 88.5 ± 7.0% (mean ± standard deviation), 81.4 ± 11.2%, and 73.3 ± 9.2%. The larger the tilting degree of the knee joint, the higher the classification accuracy. CONCLUSION DCNN could classify the tilting directions of a knee joint from lateral knee radiographs. Using Raysum images made it possible to facilitate creating dataset for training DCNN. The possibility was indicated for using support system of lateral knee radiographs. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE The system may also reduce the burden on patients and increase the work efficiency of radiological technologists.

Abstract
Background Delirium in patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) is associated with poor clinical outcomes. Although some medications have been reported as risk factors for delirium, their impact on patients with ADHF is still unclear. This study aimed to determine the association of specific medication use with delirium and their additive predictive value in models based on conventional risk factors. Methods and results In this single-center, retrospective study, 650 patients treated for ADHF were included. Fifty-nine patients (9.1%) had delirium. In multivariate analysis, anxiolytic benzodiazepines [odds ratio (OR): 6.4, 95% confidence interval (CI): 2.8–15], mechanical ventilation or noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (OR: 6.0, 95% CI: 2.9–12), depression (OR: 3.2, 95% CI: 1.5–6.5), intensive care or high care unit admission (OR: 2.9, 95% CI: 1.5–5.6), male sex (OR: 2.0, 95% CI: 1–3.7), and age (OR: 1.1, 95% CI: 1–1.1) were independently associated with severe delirium. The predictive model that included anxiolytic benzodiazepines had a significantly better discriminatory ability for the incidence of severe delirium than the conventional model. Conclusions The use of anxiolytic benzodiazepines was independently correlated with severe delirium, and their use in models based on conventional risk factors had an additive value for predicting delirium in patients with ADHF.

Abstract
Juzentaihoto is a herbal medicine with reported anti-inflammatory effects, and it is predicted to improve inflammation and insulin sensitivity within obesity. In the present study, juzentaihoto hot water extract (JTT) was administered to obese type 2 diabetic model mice (KKAy) for 56 days. In addition, the effects of JTT on the adipose tissue, glucose metabolism, and blood lipids were evaluated for examining its impact on insulin sensitivity and obesity. As a result of JTT administration, KKAy mice exhibited suppressed adipocyte hypertrophy, decreased the mRNA levels of tumor necrosis factor α, and increased the mRNA levels of adiponectin in epididymal fat tissue. In addition, fasting blood glucose levels, blood triglyceride, and total cholesterol decreased. In summary, these data indicated that JTT administration suppressed the production of inflammatory cytokines and increased adiponectin levels in the adipose tissue. Therefore, with improved insulin sensitivity, blood glucose, and lipid decreased.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) detoxifies toxic aldehydes including those generated during ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in acute myocardial infarction. The deficient variant ALDH2 genotype (ALDH2*2) is prevalent among East Asians. We examined whether ALDH2*2 exacerbates I/R injury in Japanese patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) utilizing Mendelian randomization.
Methods and results
The study subjects comprised 248 Japanese patients with STEMI (187 men and 61 women, mean age 67.1±11.5) who underwent successful primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Of these patients, 129 (52.0%) were the carriers of ALDH2*2 and 119 (48.0%) those of wild ALDH2*1/*1 on genotyping by direct application of the TaqMan polymerase chain system. There were no differences in clinical characteristics between the ALDH2*2 and ALDH2*1/*1 group except lower alcohol habit in the ALDH2*2 group. However, the peak plasma levels of creatine phosphokinase myocardial binding (CKMB), a marker of myocardial injury, were significantly higher (a median 234.0 vs 150.0 U/L, P<0.001 in the ALDH2*2 group. Furthermore, the peak CKMB levels were higher in ALDH2*2 group in men (a median 2 75.0 vs 144.9 U/L, P<0.001) but not in women (P=0.855) and there was a significant interaction between sex and ALDH2*2 on I/R injury (χ2=8.362, P=0.004).
Conclusions
The peak plasma levels of CKMB were higher in STEMI patients with ALDH2*2 than in those with ALDH2*1/*1 among men but not women. These findings identified deficient ALDH2 activity to be targeted for treatment of STEMI specifically in men with ALDH2*2.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Soluble guanyl cyclase (sGC) is a receptor for nitric oxide (NO) and plays an important role in vascular tonus. sGC stimulant is a therapeutic agent for pulmonary hypertension and an advantage of sGC stimulant over phosphodiesterase (PDE)-5 inhibitors is that sGC stimulant exerts its effect even when NO production is reduced. NO derived from vascular endothelial cells is immediately absorbed by hemoglobin (Hb), which leads to the production of methemoglobin (Met-Hb) when oxidized. Previous report has shown that the therapeutic effect of PDE-5 inhibitors was associated with levels of Met-Hb.
Purpose
In this study, we examined the relationship between the effect of riociguat and levels of Met-Hb in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH).
Methods
The study population comprised 18 patients with CTEPH. Mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) and pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) were assessed before and after administration of riociguat, and changes in mPAP and PVR were defined as ΔmPAP and ΔPVR, respectively. Since the level of Met-Hb was obtained as the percentage of Hb (FMet-Hb), the amount of Met-Hb was calculated by following formula:
Met-Hb (mg/dL) = Hb (g/dL) × FMet-Hb (%) × 10.
Results
The amount of Met-Hb value before administration of riociguat was significantly correlated with the degree of improvement in mPAP and PVR after administration of riocigat (R=−0.502, P<0.05 mPAP; R=−0.481, P<0.05 PVR, respectively) as shown in figures.
Conclusion
Our findings suggest that the level of Met-Hb before treatment may predict the therapeutic effect of sGC stimulants in patients with CTEPH.

Abstract
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) were first established from differentiated somatic cells by gene introduction of key transcription factors, OCT4, SOX2, KLF4, and c-MYC, over a decade ago. Although iPSCs can be applicable for regenerative medicine, disease modeling and drug screening, several issues associated with the utilization of iPSCs such as low reprogramming efficiency and the risk of tumorigenesis, still need to be resolved. In addition, the molecular mechanisms involved in the somatic cell reprogramming to pluripotency are yet to be elucidated. Compared with their somatic counterparts, pluripotent stem cells, including embryonic stem cells and iPSCs, exhibit a high rate of glycolysis akin to aerobic glycolysis in cancer cells. This is known as the Warburg effect and is essential for maintaining stem cell properties. This unique glycolytic metabolism in iPSCs can provide energy and drive the pentose phosphate pathway, which is the preferred pathway for rapid cell proliferation. During reprogramming, somatic cells undergo a metabolic shift from oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) to glycolysis trigged by a transient OXPHOS burst, resulting in the initiation and progression of reprogramming to iPSCs. Metabolic intermediates and mitochondrial functions are also involved in the epigenetic modification necessary for the process of iPSC reprogramming. Among the key regulatory molecules that have been reported to be involved in metabolic shift so far, hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF1) controls the transcription of many target genes to initiate metabolic changes in the early stage and maintains glycolytic metabolism in the later phase of reprogramming. This review summarizes the current understanding of the unique metabolism of pluripotent stem cells and the metabolic shift during reprogramming, and details the relevance of HIF1 in the metabolic shift.

Abstract
Electron antineutrino appearance is measured by the T2K experiment in an accelerator-produced antineutrino beam, using additional neutrino beam operation to constrain parameters of the Pontecorvo-Maki-Nakagawa-Sakata (PMNS) mixing matrix. T2K observes 15 candidate electron antineutrino events with a background expectation of 9.3 events. Including information from the kinematic distribution of observed events, the hypothesis of no electron antineutrino appearance is disfavored with a significance of 2.40σ and no discrepancy between data and PMNS predictions is found. A complementary analysis that introduces an additional free parameter which allows non-PMNS values of electron neutrino and antineutrino appearance also finds no discrepancy between data and PMNS predictions.

Abstract
Background Although R0 surgery is recommended for stage IV colorectal cancer, the degree of required lymphadenectomy has not been established. The aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic impact of high ligation (HL) of the feeding artery and the number of retrieved lymph nodes after R0 surgery for colorectal cancer and synchronous colorectal cancer liver metastasis (CRLM). Methods This was a multi‐institutional retrospective analysis of patients with colorectal cancer and synchronous CRLM who had R0 surgery between January 1997 and December 2007. Clinical and pathological features were compared in patients who underwent HL and those who had a low ligation (LL). Kaplan–Meier analysis was performed to estimate the effect of HL on overall survival (OS). The impact of several risk factors on survival was analysed using the Cox proportional hazards model. Results Of 549 patients, 409 (74·5 per cent) had HL. Median follow‐up was 51·4 months. HL significantly improved the 5‐year OS rate (58·2 per cent versus 49·3 per cent for LL; P = 0·017). Multivariable analysis revealed HL to be a significant prognostic factor compared with LL (5‐year mortality: hazard ratio (HR) 0·68, 95 per cent c.i. 0·51 to 0·90; P = 0·007). In subgroup analysis, the positive effect of HL on OS was greatest in patients with lymph node metastasis. Conclusion HL of the feeding artery was associated with improved OS in patients with colorectal cancer and synchronous CRLM after R0 surgery.

Abstract
In diabetic patients, skeletal muscle atrophy occurs due to increased oxidative stress and inflammation. Skeletal muscle atrophy reduces the QOL of patients and worsens life prognosis. Therefore, development of preventive therapy for muscle atrophy in hyperglycemic state is eagerly awaited. Juzentaihoto is a medicinal herb that has a function to supplement physical strength, and it is expected to prevent muscle atrophy. To determine the preventive effect of juzentaihoto on muscle atrophy in hyperglycemic state, streptozotocin (STZ) was administered to induce diabetes in mice and the preventive effect of juzentaihoto was evaluated. Mice that received juzentaihoto extract (JTT) showed that the decrease in muscle fiber cross-sectional area in the gastrocnemius muscle was reversed. Additionally, the expression level of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), an inflammatory cytokine, in serum decreased, and that of ubiquitin ligase (atrogin-1, muscle RING-finger protein-1) mRNA in skeletal muscle decreased. An anti-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-10 showed increased levels in the serum and increased levels in spleen cell culture supernatant collected from mice that received JTT. JTT had no effect on the blood glucose level. These results suggest that prophylactic administration of JTT to STZ-induced diabetic mice affects immune cells such as in spleen, causing an anti-inflammatory effect and inhibiting excessive activation of the ubiquitin-proteasome system, to reverse muscle atrophy.
