Abstract
BACKGROUND The FUTURE trial (UMIN000029294) demonstrated the safety and efficacy of adding palbociclib after fulvestrant resistance in patients with hormone receptor-positive (HR+)/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-) advanced and metastatic breast cancer (ABC/MBC). In this planned sub-study, cancer panel sequencing of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) was utilized to explore prognostic and predictive biomarkers for further palbociclib treatment following fulvestrant resistance. MATERIALS AND METHODS Herein, 149 cfDNA samples from 65 patients with fulvestrant-resistant disease were analysed at the time of palbociclib addition after fulvestrant resistance (baseline), on day 15 of cycle 1, and at the end of treatment using the assay for identifying diverse mutations in 34 cancer-related genes. RESULTS During the course of treatment, mutations in ESR1, PIK3CA, FOXA1, RUNX1, TBX3, and TP53 were the most common genomic alterations observed. Analysis of genomic mutations revealed that before fulvestrant introduction, baseline PIK3CA mutations were marginally lower in metastatic aromatase inhibitor (AI)-treated patients compared to adjuvant AI-treated patients (P = 0.063). Baseline PIK3CA mutations were associated with poorer progression-free survival [hazard ratio: 1.62, P = 0.04]. Comparative analysis between baseline and early-changing gene mutations identified poor prognostic factors including early-changing MAP3K1 mutations (hazard ratio: 4.66, P = 0.04), baseline AR mutations (hazard ratio: 3.53, P = 0.04), and baseline PIK3CA mutations (hazard ratio: 3.41, P = 0.02). Notably, the relationship between ESR1 mutations and mutations in PIK3CA, MAP3K1, and TP53 weakened as treatment progressed. Instead, PIK3CA mutations became correlated with TP53 and FOXA1 mutations. CONCLUSIONS Cancer panel testing for cfDNA identified prognostic and predictive biomarkers for palbociclib add-on therapy after acquiring fulvestrant resistance in patients with HR+/HER2- ABC/MBC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Xylobiose, a non-digestible disaccharide, largely contributes to the beneficial physiological effects of xylooligosaccharides. However, there is insufficient evidence to assess the direct effect of xylobiose on intestinal barrier function. Here, we investigated the intestinal barrier function in human intestinal Caco-2 cells treated with xylobiose. RESULTS In total, 283 genes were upregulated and 256 genes were downregulated in xylobiose-treated Caco-2 cells relative to the controls. We focused on genes related to intestinal barrier function, such as tight junction (TJ) and heat shock protein (HSP). Xylobiose decreased the expression of the TJ gene Claudin 2 (CLDN2) and increased the expression of the cytoprotective HSP genes HSPB1 and HSPA1A, which encode HSP27 and HSP70, respectively. Immunoblot analysis confirmed that xylobiose suppressed CLDN2 expression and enhanced HSP27 and HSP70 expression. A quantitative reverse transcription-PCR and promoter assays indicated that xylobiose post-transcriptionally regulated CLDN2 and HSPB1 levels. Additionally, selective inhibition of phosphatidyl-3-inositol kinase (PI3K) inhibited xylobiose-mediated CLDN2 expression, whereas HSP27 expression induced by xylobiose was sensitive to the inhibition of PI3K, mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase and Src. CONCLUSION The results of the present study reveal that xylobiose suppresses CLDN2 and increases HSP27 expression in intestinal Caco-2 cells via post-transcriptional regulation, potentially strengthening intestinal barrier integrity; however, these effects seem to occur via different signaling pathways. Our findings may help to assess the physiological role of xylobiose. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Keratocystoma is a rare salivary gland lesion that has been reported primarily in children and young adults. Because of a scarcity of reported cases, very little is known about it, including its molecular underpinnings, biological potential, and histologic spectrum. Purported to be a benign neoplasm, keratocystoma bears a striking histologic resemblance to benign lesions like metaplastic Warthin tumor on one end of the spectrum and squamous cell carcinoma on the other end. This overlap can cause diagnostic confusion, and it raises questions about the boundaries and definition of keratocystoma as an entity. This study seeks to utilize molecular tools to evaluate the pathogenesis of keratocystoma as well as its relationship with its histologic mimics. On the basis of targeted RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) results on a sentinel case, RUNX2 break-apart fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was successfully performed on 4 cases diagnosed as keratocystoma, as well as 13 cases originally diagnosed as tumors that morphologically resemble keratocystoma: 6 primary squamous cell carcinomas, 3 metaplastic/dysplastic Warthin tumors, 2 atypical squamous cysts, 1 proliferating trichilemmal tumor, and 1 cystadenoma. RNA-seq and/or reverse transcriptase-PCR were attempted on all FISH-positive cases. Seven cases were positive for RUNX2 rearrangement, including 3 of 4 tumors originally called keratocystoma, 2 of 2 called atypical squamous cyst, 1 of 1 called proliferating trichilemmal tumor, and 1 of 6 called squamous cell carcinoma. RNA-seq and/or reverse transcriptase-PCR identified IRF2BP2::RUNX2 in 6 of 7 cases; for the remaining case, the partner remains unknown. The cases positive for RUNX2 rearrangement arose in the parotid glands of 4 females and 3 males, ranging from 8 to 63 years old (mean, 25.4 years; median, 15 years). The RUNX2 -rearranged cases had a consistent histologic appearance: variably sized cysts lined by keratinizing squamous epithelium, plus scattered irregular squamous nests, with essentially no cellular atypia or mitotic activity. The background was fibrotic, often with patchy chronic inflammation and/or giant cell reaction. One case originally called squamous cell carcinoma was virtually identical to the other cases, except for a single focus of small nerve invasion. The FISH-negative case that was originally called keratocystoma had focal cuboidal and mucinous epithelium, which was not found in any FISH-positive cases. The tumors with RUNX2 rearrangement were all treated with surgery only, and for the 5 patients with follow-up, there were no recurrences or metastases (1 to 120 months), even for the case with perineural invasion. Our findings solidify that keratocystoma is a cystic neoplastic entity, one which appears to consistently harbor RUNX2 rearrangements, particularly IRF2BP2::RUNX2 . Having a diagnostic genetic marker now allows for a complete understanding of this rare tumor. They arise in the parotid gland and affect a wide age range. Keratocystoma has a consistent morphologic appearance, which includes large squamous-lined cysts that mimic benign processes like metaplastic Warthin tumor and also small, irregular nests that mimic squamous cell carcinoma. Indeed, RUNX2 analysis has considerable promise for resolving these differential diagnoses. Given that one RUNX2 -rearranged tumor had focal perineural invasion, it is unclear whether that finding is within the spectrum of keratocystoma or whether it could represent malignant transformation. Most important, all RUNX2 -rearranged cases behaved in a benign manner.

Abstract
PURPOSE During the last decade, the incidence of anaerobic bacteremia (AB) has been increasing. Patients with AB may develop complex underlying diseases, which can occasionally be accompanied by fatal or fulminant outcomes. However, the risk factors for AB-related mortality remain unclear. Herein, we sought to elucidate the risk factors for AB-related mortality. METHODS In this multicenter, retrospective, observational study, we enrolled patients with culture-proven AB from six tertiary hospitals in Japan, between January 2012 and December 2021. Data on patient and infection characteristics, laboratory findings, treatment, and outcome were collected, and their associations with mortality were analyzed. RESULTS A total of 520 participants were included. The 30-day mortality in the study cohort was 14.0% (73 patients), and malignant tumors were frequently observed comorbidities in 48% of the entire cohort. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed a Charlson comorbidity score of > 6, serum creatinine level of > 1.17 mg/dL, and hypotension to be independent risk factors for 30-day mortality in AB (odds ratios [ORs] 2.12, 2.25, and 5.12, respectively; p < 0.05), whereas drainage significantly reduced this risk (OR, 0.28; p < 0.0001). Twelve patients (2.3% of the whole cohort and 16.4% of the deceased patients) presented with extremely rapid progression leading to fatal outcome, consistent with "fulminant AB." CONCLUSIONS This study identified acute circulatory dysfunction and performance of drainage as independent predictive factors for 30-day AB-related mortality and revealed the existence of a fulminant AB sub-phenotype. Our findings could serve as a practical guide to predict the clinical outcomes of AB.

Abstract
PURPOSE To develop an imaging prediction model for patients with embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS), we investigated the association of topographic diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) patterns with potential embolic sources (PES) identified by transesophageal echocardiography. METHODS From a total of 992 consecutive patients with embolic stroke, 366 patients with the ESUS group were selected. ESUS was defined as no atrial fibrillation (Af) within 24h from admission and no PES after general examination. Clinical variables include age (> 80years, 70-80 years), sex, vascular risk factors and left atrial diameter > 4 cm. Age, sex and vascular risk factors adjusted odds ratio of each DWI for the different PESs were calculated. DWI was determined based on the arterial territories. Middle cerebral arteries were divided into 4 segments, i.e., M1-M4. Moreover, M2 segments were subdivided into superior and inferior branches. RESULTS The 366 patients consisted of 168 with paroxysmal Af (pAf), 77 with paradoxical embolism, 71 with aortic embolism and 50 with undetermined embolism after transesophageal echocardiography. The variables adjusted odds ratio (OR) of internal carotid artery (OR: 12.1, p = 0.037), M1 (4.2, p = 0.001), inferior M2 (7.5, p = 0.0041) and multiple cortical branches (12.6, p < 0.0001) were significantly higher in patients with pAf. Striatocapsular infarction (12.5, p < 0.0001) and posterior inferior cerebellar artery infarcts (3.6, p = 0.018) were significantly associated with paradoxical embolism. Clinical variables adjusted OR of multiple small scattered infarcts (8.3, p < 0.0001) were significantly higher in patients with aortic embolism. CONCLUSION The associations of DWI with different PES have their distinctive characteristics and DWI along with clinical variables may help predict PES in patients with ESUS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nivolumab therapy is a standard-of-care treatment for heavily pretreated patients with advanced gastric cancer (AGC). Previous studies have reported improvement in the objective response rate to chemotherapy after nivolumab therapy for other types of cancer. This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of chemotherapy after nivolumab therapy in AGC. PATIENTS AND METHODS We conducted a prospective, multicenter, observational study in pretreated patients with nivolumab-refractory or -intolerant AGC. Patients received irinotecan, oxaliplatin-containing regimens, or trifluridine/tipiracil. The primary endpoint was overall survival. RESULTS A total of 199 patients were included (median age: 69 years; male: 70%; female: 30%). Median overall survival and progression-free survival were 7.5 months [95% confidence interval (CI): 6.7-9.7 months] and 2.9 months (95% CI: 2.2-3.5 months), respectively. Objective response and disease control rates were 16.8% (95% CI: 11.6% to 23.6%) and 18.9% (95% CI: 38.9% to 54.6%), respectively. A prognostic index using alkaline phosphatase and the Glasgow Prognostic Score was generated to classify patients into three risk groups (good, moderate, and poor). The hazard ratios of the moderate and poor groups to the good group were 1.88 (95% CI: 1.22-2.92) and 3.29 (95% CI: 1.92-5.63), respectively. At the initiation of chemotherapy, 42 patients had experienced immune-related adverse events due to prior nivolumab therapy. The most common grade 3-4 adverse events were neutropenia (7.5%), anemia (8.0%), and anorexia (7.5%). CONCLUSIONS The administration of cytotoxic chemotherapy after nivolumab therapy may give rise to a synergistic antitumor effect in AGC. Further investigation is warranted to confirm these findings.

Abstract
Cladosporium cladosporioides is one of the most ubiquitous dematiaceous fungi that seldomly occur human infection. Here, we demonstrate a rare case of pulmonary phaeohyphomycosis with a distinctive pulmonary lesion during the nadir period of outpatient chemotherapy against endometrial cancer. In addition to severe neutropenia, excessive exposure to C. cladosporioides at patient's residence was considered as dominant causative factor. More caution is considered necessary for pulmonary phaeohyphomycosis in patients who receive outpatient chemotherapy and are homebound during neutropenic status.

Abstract
Yogurt is made by fermenting milk with 2 lactic acid bacteria, Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp. bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus. To comprehensively understand the protocooperation mechanism between S. thermophilus and L. bulgaricus in yogurt fermentation, we examined 24 combinations of cocultures comprising 7 fast- or slow-acidifying S. thermophilus strains with 6 fast- or slow-acidifying L. bulgaricus strains. Furthermore, 3 NADH oxidase (Nox)-deficient mutants (Δnox) and one pyruvate formate-lyase deficient mutant (ΔpflB) of S. thermophilus were used to evaluate the factor that determines the acidification rate of S. thermophilus. The results revealed that the acidification rate of S. thermophilus monoculture determined the yogurt fermentation rates, despite the coexistence of L. bulgaricus, whose acidification rate was either fast or slow. Significant correlation was found between the acidification rate of S. thermophilus monoculture and the amount of formate production. Result using ΔpflB showed that the formate was indispensable for the acidification of S. thermophilus. Moreover, results of the Δnox experiments revealed that formate production required Nox activity, which not only regulated dissolved oxygen, but also the redox potential. The Nox provided the large decrease in redox potential required by pyruvate formate-lyase to produce formate. A highly significant correlation was found between formate accumulation and Nox activity in S. thermophilus. In conclusion, the formate production ability provided by the action of Nox activity determines the acidification rate of S. thermophilus, and consequently, regulates yogurt coculture fermentation.

Abstract
AIMS Regulation of the intestinal barrier is closely related to intestinal microbial metabolism. This study investigated the role of intestinal microflora in the regulation of the tight junction (TJ) barrier in epithelial cells, focusing on the microbial metabolite n-butyrate, a major short-chain fatty acid, using mice and human intestinal Caco-2 cells. MATERIALS AND METHODS Whole transcriptome analysis with RNA sequencing and quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) were performed in the colon of germ-free (GF) and specific pathogen-free (SPF) mice. Claudin-23 expression was examined by qRT-PCR, immunoblotting, and immunofluorescence in Caco-2 cells treated with n-butyrate. Luciferase reporter assay was performed to examine the effect of n-butyrate on claudin-23 transcriptional activity. The siRNA targeting the transcription factor SP1 and pharmacological inhibitor of AMPK were used in combination. TJ permeability was examined in canine kidney MDCKII cells stably expressing human claudin-23. KEY FINDINGS Cldn23 mRNA expression was downregulated in the colon of GF mice (0.6-fold) compared to that in SPF mice. n-Butyrate upregulated claudin-23 mRNA (1.7-fold) and protein (2.1-fold) expression as well as increased the transcriptional activity (15-fold) of CLDN23 in Caco-2 cells. The n-butyrate-mediated increase in claudin-23 expression and transcriptional activity was reduced by inhibition of SP1 and AMPK. Exogenously expressed human claudin-23 in MDCKII cells did not affect TJ permeability to ions and macromolecules. SIGNIFICANCE n-Butyrate regulates intestinal claudin-23 expression through the SP1 and AMPK pathways. This mechanism may be involved in the beneficial effects of n-butyrate-mediated intestinal homeostasis.

Abstract
Background Immune response indicators in the early phase of COVID-19, including interferon and neutralizing responses against SARS-CoV-2, which predict hypoxemia remains unclear. Methods This prospective observational study recruited patients hospitalized with COVID-19 (before emergence of omicron variant). As the immune indicators, we assessed the serum levels of IFN-I/III, IL-6, CXCL10 and VEGF, using an ELISA at within 5 days after the onset of symptoms, and serum neutralizing responses using a pseudovirus assay. We also assessed SARS-CoV-2 viral load by qPCR using nasal-swab specimens and serum, to assess the association of indicators and viral distribution. Results The study enrolled 117 patients with COVID-19, of which 28 patients developed hypoxemia. None received vaccine before admission. Serum IFN-I levels (IFN-α and IFN-β), IL-6, CXCL10, LDH and CRP were significantly higher in patients who developed hypoxemia. A significant association with nasopharyngeal viral load was observed only for IFN-I. The serum levels of IFN-α, IL-6, CXCL10 were significantly associated with the presence of RNAemia. Multivariable analysis showed higher odds ratio of IFN-α, with cut-off value of 107 pg/ml, in regard to hypoxemia (Odds ratio [OR]=17.5; 95% confidence interval [CI], 4.7-85; p<0.001), compared to those of IL-6, >17.9 pg/ml (OR=10.5; 95% CI, 2.9-46; p<0.001). Conclusions This study demonstrated that serum IFN-α levels in the early phase of SARS-CoV-2 infection strongly predict hypoxemic respiratory failure in a manner different from that of the other indicators including IL-6 or humoral immune response, and instead sensitively reflect innate immune response against SARS-CoV-2 invasion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The intestinal epithelium acts as a barrier against harmful luminal materials, thus preventing intestinal diseases and maintaining intestinal health. Heat shock protein 27 (HSP27) promotes intestinal epithelial integrity under both physiological and stressed conditions. The effects of partially hydrolyzed guar gum (PHGG) on HSP27 expression in intestinal Caco-2 cells and mouse intestines were investigated. RESULTS The present study showed that PHGG upregulated HSP27 expression in Caco-2 cells without upregulating Hspb1, the gene encoding HSP27. Feeding PHGG increased HSP25 expression in epithelial cells of the small intestine of mice. Inhibition of protein translation using cycloheximide suppressed PHGG-mediated HSP27 expression, indicating that PHGG upregulated HSP27 via translational modulation. Signaling inhibition of the mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) and phosphatidyl 3-inositol kinase reduced PHGG-mediated HSP27 expression, whereas mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase inhibition by U0126 increased HSP27 expression, irrespective of PHGG administration. PHGG increases mTOR phosphorylation and reduces extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK) phosphorylation. CONCLUSION PHGG-mediated translation of HSP27 in intestinal Caco-2 cells and mouse intestine via the mTOR and ERK signaling pathways may promote intestinal epithelial integrity. These findings help us better understand how dietary fibers regulate the physiological function of the intestines. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Regulation of the intestinal barrier is closely associated with intestinal microbial metabolism. This study investigated the role of propionate, a major short-chain fatty acid produced by intestinal microorganisms, in the regulation of the tight junction (TJ) barrier in human intestinal Caco-2 cells. Propionate strengthened TJ barrier integrity, as indicated by decreased permeability to macromolecules and increased transepithelial electrical resistance in Caco-2 cells. DNA microarray analysis revealed that propionate upregulated endothelial cell-selective adhesion molecule (ESAM), a TJ-associated protein, without any increase in other TJ proteins. The upregulation of ESAM was confirmed using quantitative reverse transcription-PCR, immunoblotting, and immunofluorescence analyses. Luciferase promoter analysis demonstrated that propionate induced the transcriptional activation of ESAM. The effects of propionate were sensitive to nilotinib inhibition of NR2C2. Overexpression of human ESAM (hESAM) in canine kidney epithelial MDCK-II cells lowered the permeability to macromolecules in a manner similar to that of propionate-treated Caco-2 cells. hESAM overexpression facilitated calcium-induced assembly of the TJ complex in MDCK-II cells. Taken together, propionate strengthened the intestinal TJ barrier by increasing ESAM levels in Caco-2 cells.

Abstract
AIMS Certain lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are known to have anti-inflammatory effects; however, hiochi bacteria, which are taxonomically classified as LAB and known to spoil a traditional Japanese alcoholic beverage, have not been studied in the same context. The aim of this study is to investigate the anti-inflammatory effects of hiochi bacteria strains and the underlying mechanisms. METHODS AND RESULTS We screened 45 strains of hiochi bacteria for anti-inflammatory effects and found that Lentilactobacillus hilgardii H-50 strongly inhibits lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced secretion of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, and IL-6 in mouse splenocytes. This inhibition is attributed to its specific surface layer proteins (SLPs), which directly bind to LPS. CONCLUSIONS The L. hilgardii H-50 strain exerts anti-inflammatory effects through its SLPs.

Abstract
Periodontal disease is caused by dysbiosis of the dental biofilm and the host inflammatory response. Various pathogenic factors, such as proteases and lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) produced by bacteria, are involved in disease progression. Endotoxin tolerance is a function of myeloid cells, which sustain inflammation and promote tissue regeneration upon prolonged stimulation by endotoxins such as LPS. The role of endotoxin tolerance is gaining attention in various chronic inflammatory diseases, but its role in periodontal disease remains elusive. Oxidative stress, one of the major risk factors for periodontal disease, promotes disease progression through various mechanisms, of which only some are known. The effect of oxidative stress on endotoxin tolerance has not yet been studied, and we postulated that endotoxin tolerance regulation may be an additional mechanism through which oxidative stress influences periodontal disease. This study aimed to reveal the effect of oxidative stress on endotoxin tolerance and that of endotoxin tolerance on periodontitis progression. The effect of oxidative stress on endotoxin tolerance was analyzed in vitro using peritoneal macrophages of mice and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). The results showed that oxidative stress inhibits endotoxin tolerance induced by Porphyromonas gingivalis LPS in macrophages, at least partially, by downregulating LPS-elicited negative regulators of Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling. A novel oxidative stress mouse model was established using SMP30KO mice incapable of ascorbate biosynthesis. Using this model, we revealed that oxidative stress impairs endotoxin tolerance potential in macrophages in vivo. Furthermore, gingival expression of endotoxin tolerance-related genes and TLR signaling negative regulators was decreased, and symptoms of ligature-induced periodontitis were aggravated in the oxidative stress mouse model. Our findings suggest that oxidative stress may contribute to periodontitis progression through endotoxin tolerance inhibition.

Abstract
Impaired integrity of the intestinal epithelium is a cause of intestinal and extraintestinal diseases. Heat shock protein 70 (HSP70), a cytoprotective protein, plays an important role in maintaining intestinal homeostasis. The intestinal expression of HSP70 is linked with the local microbiota. The present study investigated the molecular mechanisms underlying the upregulation of HSP70 by n-butyrate, a major metabolite of the intestinal microbiota in human intestinal Caco-2 cells. Treatment of Caco-2 cells with n-butyrate upregulated HSP70 protein and mRNA levels in a dose-dependent manner. Using luciferase reporter assay, it was found that n-butyrate enhanced the transcriptional activity of HSP70. These effects were sensitive to the inhibition of heat shock factor 1 (HSF1), a transcription factor, and AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). N-butyrate increased the phosphorylation (activity) of HSF1 and AMPK. Taken together, this study shows that n-butyrate is partly involved in the microbiota-dependent intestinal expression of HSP70, and the effect is exerted through the HSF1 and AMPK pathways.

Abstract
Samples of the carbonaceous asteroid Ryugu were brought to Earth by the Hayabusa2 spacecraft. We analyzed 17 Ryugu samples measuring 1 to 8 millimeters. Carbon dioxide-bearing water inclusions are present within a pyrrhotite crystal, indicating that Ryugu's parent asteroid formed in the outer Solar System. The samples contain low abundances of materials that formed at high temperatures, such as chondrules and calcium- and aluminum-rich inclusions. The samples are rich in phyllosilicates and carbonates, which formed through aqueous alteration reactions at low temperature, high pH, and water/rock ratios of <1 (by mass). Less altered fragments contain olivine, pyroxene, amorphous silicates, calcite, and phosphide. Numerical simulations, based on the mineralogical and physical properties of the samples, indicate that Ryugu's parent body formed ~2 million years after the beginning of Solar System formation.

Abstract
PURPOSE Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) infection is a known to be a critical risk factor for the development of Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC). Various reports on cutaneous MCC have shown that the differences in clinicohistopathological characteristics depend on the presence of MCPyV, but the situation in eyelid MCC is unknown. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of MCPyV in patients with eyelid MCC and examine the clinicohistopathological characteristics of MCPyV-associated eyelid MCC. DESIGN Retrospective observational case series with laboratory investigations. METHODS Ten patients treated for eyelid MCC were included. Histopathological characteristics were examined by immunohistochemical staining using 12 antibodies. MCPyV infection was evaluated by PCR using primer sets targeting large T antigens of the MCPyV genome and by immunohistochemical staining using CM2B4 and Ab3 monoclonal antibodies. The MCPyV viral load was also quantified by PCR using 3 primer sets. RESULTS All patients (4 males and 6 females) were Japanese with mean age of 79 (range: 63 to 87) years. One patient died due to distant metastasis 8 months after surgery for MCC. Immunohistochemical studies showed typical MCC findings in all cases, including CK20 and neuroendocrine marker positivity. PCR and immunohistochemistry with CM2B4 and Ab3 detected MCPyV antigen in all tumors. Quantitative PCR using sT, LT4, and TAg primers yielded 0.94, 1.72, and 1.05 copies per cell, respectively. CONCLUSION Clinical and histopathological characteristics of 10 patients with eyelid MCC were elucidated. MCPyV infection was detected in all eyelids. These results provide insight for understanding the tumorigenesis of eyelid MCC.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
In the US phase 2 RESCUE trial, ziltivekimab, a fully human monoclonal antibody against the ligand of the pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-6, was shown to reduce biomarkers of inflammation in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and elevated levels of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), a marker of inflammation and cardiac risk.1 Here, we present outcomes from the phase 2 RESCUE-2 trial of ziltivekimab in a patient population from Japan.
Purpose
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of ziltivekimab 15 mg and 30 mg compared with placebo in Japanese patients with non-dialysis-dependent CKD (NDD-CKD).
Methods
We conducted a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in 36 patients aged ≥20 years with stage 3–5 NDD-CKD and hsCRP ≥2 mg/L. Patients were randomly assigned to receive subcutaneous ziltivekimab 15 mg (n=11) or 30 mg (n=12), or placebo (n=13) at weeks 0, 4 and 8. The primary endpoint was percentage change in hsCRP levels from baseline to end of treatment (EOT) (average of week 10 and week 12 values); secondary endpoints included percentage change from baseline to EOT in levels of fibrinogen, serum amyloid A (SAA), N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and lipids. Analysis of endpoints was performed using Wilcoxon two-sample test; differences between treatment groups were calculated using the Hodges–Lehmann estimator.
Results
Baseline characteristics are shown in the Table. At EOT, median hsCRP levels were reduced by 96% and 93% in the ziltivekimab 15 mg and 30 mg groups, respectively, compared with 27% for placebo (both p<0.001 vs placebo). At both doses, ziltivekimab provided rapid and sustained suppression of hsCRP over the 12-week treatment period (Figure). Statistically significant reductions in levels of the inflammatory markers SAA (15 mg: 71%; 30 mg: 58%; placebo: 30%; both p<0.01 vs placebo) and fibrinogen (38%; 34%; 2%; both p<0.0001 vs placebo) were also observed. Ziltivekimab was well tolerated, did not result in persistent neutropenia or thrombocytopenia, and had minimal effect on liver enzyme levels. There was a non-significant increase in low-density lipoprotein levels and a neutral effect on high-density lipoprotein levels. There was a limited, but statistically significant (p<0.05 vs placebo) increase in triglycerides, whereby levels increased in some patients and decreased in others.
Conclusion
Ziltivekimab effectively reduced inflammatory biomarkers associated with atherosclerosis in patients from Japan with CKD and residual inflammatory risk as measured by hsCRP. A significant reduction of more than 90% in hsCRP levels for both doses of ziltivekimab was demonstrated, with a safety profile similar to placebo. Overall, the results of the RESCUE-2 trial in Japan are consistent with the efficacy and safety results of the US-based RESCUE trial.

Abstract
Lymphoscintigraphy with single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT-CT) is useful in diagnosing lymphedema. However, there are multiple timings, techniques, and tracers utilized worldwide without any comparison. We examined and compared the image clarity with two different radiotracers, 99mTc-human serum albumin (HSA) and 99mTc-phytate (phytate), in the same patients. The study retrospectivity examined 46 limbs of 36 patients who underwent lymphoscintigraphy using HSA and phytate from January 2013 to September 2018. Tracer accumulation in the lymph nodes, linear pattern (LP), and dermal backflow (DBF) were qualitatively analyzed; contrast-to-noise ratios (CNR) of DBF and standardized uptake value ratio (SUVR) of LP were also quantitatively analyzed. Neither lymph node accumulation nor DBF identification showed significant difference. However, a significant difference was observed between the LP identification of the unaffected (p<0.001) and affected sides (p<0.001). On quantitative evaluation, CNR and SUVR of LP was significantly higher with HSA than with phytate (p<0.001). SUVR of LP was also significantly higher with HSA than with phytate in both unaffected (p=0.002) and affected (p=0.005) sides. Overall, images acquired with HSA were clearer than that with phytate, and the identification of LP was particularly better with HSA than with phytate. Thus, lymphoscintigraphy using HSA is preferred over phytate for both diagnosis and evaluation of disease severity and surgical site selection.

Abstract
BackgroundMyeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are heterogeneous immature myeloid cells with suppressive functions (1). It is known that MDSCs are expanded in inflammatory sites after migrating from bone marrow (BM) or spleen. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease characterized as polyarthritis. Although previous reports indicate that MDSCs are increased in BM and spleen of arthritis model mice, detailed analysis of MDSCs in inflammatory joints is limited.ObjectivesThe purpose of this study is to characterize the MDSCs in the joints of autoimmune arthritis.MethodsWe isolated CD11b+Gr1+ cells as MDSCs from joints (Jo-MDSCs), bone marrow (BM-MDSCs) and spleen (Sp-MDSCs) of arthritis-induced SKG mice, and investigated differential expressed genes (DEGs) among MDSCs from three tissues by microarray expression analysis. Furthermore, we analyzed the suppressive function of each MDSCs by investigating the effect of them on T cell -proliferation and the osteoclast differentiation of each MDSCs stimulated by M-CSF and RANKL.ResultsMicroarray analysis revealed that Jo-MDSCs highly expressed immunosuppressive DEGs (Pdl1, Arg1, Egr2 and Egr3) compared to BM MDSCs or Sp MDSCs. In addition, Jo-MDCSs highly expressed NF-κB non-canonical pathway DEGs (Nfkb2 and Relb), which are related to osteoclast differentiation. BM-MDSCs differentiated into osteoclasts but didn’t suppress T cell-proliferation and Sp-MDSCs suppressed T cell-proliferation but didn’t differentiate into osteoclasts. On the other hand, Jo-MDSCs was found to have both functions: T cell suppression and osteoclast differentiation potential.ConclusionJo-MDSCs have a strong inhibitory effect on T cell proliferation and have the ability osteoclast differentiation potential.References[1]Veglia F, Perego M, Gabrilovich D.

Abstract
Vincristine (VCR) is an important drug used in R-CHOP regimens for the treatment of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The purpose of this study was to examine whether the administration method affects the incidence of VCR-induced peripheral neuropathy. We investigated the ratio of VCR-induced peripheral neuropathy during rapid intravenous infusion and intravenous drip infusion. A total of 71 patients who had received six or more courses of R-CHOP from January, 2015 to December, 2016 at Komaki City Hospital and Ogaki Municipal Hospital were retrospectively investigated. Peripheral neuropathy was observed in 27/39 patients (69 %) and 24/32 (75 %) in rapid intravenous infusion and intravenous drip infusion of VCR, respectively (P = 0.79). Peripheral neuropathy was observed at a high frequency in this study. Additionally, there was no difference in frequency of peripheral neuropathy due to the difference in administration method. In both groups, the degree of peripheral neuropathy was grade 1 and grade 2 in most patients. However, in rapid intravenous infusion, grade 3 peripheral neuropathy was observed. Some cases required dose reduction and discontinuation in rapid intravenous infusion. In contrast, there were no discontinuing patients in the intravenous drip infusion. Therefore, it was suggested that intravenous drip infusion of VCR reduced serious peripheral neuropathy because the ratio requiring dose reduction and discontinuation was less than that in the rapid group. In conclusion, this study is informative as there are few reports focusing on the administration method of vincristine.

Abstract
The Hayabusa2 spacecraft investigated the C-type (carbonaceous) asteroid (162173) Ryugu. The mission performed two landing operations to collect samples of surface and subsurface material, the latter exposed by an artificial impact. We present images of the second touchdown site, finding that ejecta from the impact crater was present at the sample location. Surface pebbles at both landing sites show morphological variations ranging from rugged to smooth, similar to Ryugu's boulders, and shapes from quasi-spherical to flattened. The samples were returned to Earth on 6 December 2020. We describe the morphology of >5 grams of returned pebbles and sand. Their diverse color, shape, and structure are consistent with the observed materials of Ryugu; we conclude that they are a representative sample of the asteroid.

Background The activation of melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R) on melanocytes stimulates the production of eumelanin. A tridecapeptide α melanocyte‐stimulating hormone (αMSH) is known to induce skin pigmentation. Objectives We characterised the properties of a novel oral MC1R agonist dersimelagon (MT‐7117) with respect to its specific binding to MC1R, downstream signalling and eumelanin production in experimental models. Methods The competitive binding and production of intracellular cyclic adenosine 3′, 5′‐monophosphate in cells expressing recombinant melanocortin receptors were examined. A mouse melanoma cell line B16F1 was used for the evaluation of in vitro melanin production. The in vitro activity of MT‐7117 was determined with αMSH and [Nle4, D‐Phe7]‐αMSH (NDP‐αMSH) as reference comparators. The change of coat colour and skin pigmentation were evaluated after repeat administration of MT‐7117 by oral gavage to C57BL/6J‐Ay/+ mice and cynomolgus monkeys, respectively. Results MT‐7117 showed the highest affinity for human MC1R compared to the other melanocortin receptors evaluated and agonistic activity for human, cynomolgus monkey and mouse MC1R, with EC50 values in the nanomolar range. In B16F1 cells, MT‐7117 increased melanin production in a concentration‐dependent manner. In vivo, MT‐7117 (≥0.3 mg/kg/day p.o.) significantly induced coat colour darkening in mice. MT‐7117 (≥1 mg/kg/day p.o.) induced significant skin pigmentation in monkeys and complete reversibility was observed after cessation of its administration. Conclusions MT‐7117 is a novel oral MC1R agonist that induces melanogenesis in vitro and in vivo, suggesting its potential application for the prevention of phototoxic reactions in patients with photodermatoses, such as erythropoietic protoporphyria and X‐linked protoporphyria.

Abstract
Lymphoscintigraphy with single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT-CT) is useful in diagnosing lymphedema. However, there are multiple timings, techniques, and tracers utilized worldwide without any comparison. We examined and compared the image clarity with two different radiotracers, 99mTc human serum albumin (HSA) and 99mTc phytate (phytate), in the same patients. The study retrospectivity examined 46 limbs of 36 patients who underwent lymphoscintigraphy using HSA and phytate from January 2013 to September 2018. Tracer accumulation in the lymph nodes, linear pattern (LP), and dermal backflow (DBF) were qualitatively analyzed; contrast-to-noise ratios (CNR) of DBF and standardized uptake value ratio (SUVR) of LP were also quantitatively analyzed. Neither lymph node accumulation nor DBF identification showed significant difference. However, a significant difference was observed between the LP identification of the unaffected (p<0.001) and affected sides (p<0.001). On quantitative evaluation, CNR and SUVR of LP was significantly higher with HSA than with phytate (p<0.001). SUVR of LP was also significantly higher with HSA than with phytate in both unaffected (p=0.002) and affected (p=0.005) sides. Overall, images acquired with HSA were clearer than that with phytate, and the identification of LP was particularly better with HSA than with phytate. Thus, lymphoscintigraphy using HSA is preferred over phytate for both diagnosis and evaluation of disease severity and surgical site selection.

Abstract
The objectives of this study were as follows: 1) to compare the metabolic activities of endogenous compounds and their effects on dopamine formation and hydroxylation of steroid hormones, mediated by human cytochrome P450 (CYP), including CYP2C9.1 and CYP2C19, as well as the variants CYP2C9.2 (Arg144Cys) and CYP2C9.3 (Ile359Leu); and 2) to assess the effects of steroid hormones on the activities of CYP2C9.1, CYP2C9.2, and CYP2C19 to estimate the contribution of the CYP2C subfamily to metabolism and drug-drug interactions of endogenous compounds. Dopamine formation from p -tyramine and 6β- and 21- (for progesterone) hydroxylation of testosterone, cortisol, and progesterone by CYP2C9 variants, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, and CYP3A4 were determined using HPLC. The effects of steroid hormones such as testosterone, cortisol, and progesterone on tolbutamide methyl hydroxylation mediated by CYP2C subfamily members were investigated. Only CYP2D6 catalyzed dopamine formation. The 6β-hydroxylation activities of testosterone, cortisol, and progesterone catalyzed by CYP2C9 variants and CYP2D6 were less than 5% of those by CYP3A4. Although cortisol did not inhibit tolbutamide methyl hydroxylation catalyzed by CYP2C9.1, CYP2C9.2, or CYP2C19 and testosterone did not inhibit CYP2C19 activity, the reactions catalyzed by CY2C9.1 and CYP2C9.2 were inhibited by testosterone. The inhibition of progesterone by CYP2C19 was stronger than that by CYP2C9.1 and CYP2C9.2. CYP2C9.1 and CYP2C19 noncompetitively and competitively inhibited tolbutamide methyl hydroxylation with inhibition constants of 43.2 μM and 1.03 μM, respectively. Clinical interactions among endogenous compounds would vary within the CYP2C subfamily, although the contribution of the CYP2C subfamily may be of minor importance for dopamine formation and the detoxification (6β-hydroxylation) of endogenous steroid hormones.

Abstract
The pathogenesis of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is closely related to the changes in the intestinal microbiota and integrity. Our previous studies have shown the accumulation of hydrogen sulfide (H2S)-producing bacterial family, Desulfovibrionacea, in the colon of a murine model of CKD, suggesting that the increased H2S contributes to the impaired intestinal integrity in CKD. Here, we investigated the anti-proliferative effect of H2S in the intestinal epithelial cells. A slow- H2S releasing molecule GYY4137 ((p-methoxyphenyl)morpholino-phosphinodithioic acid) reduced the proliferation of Caco-2 and IEC-6 cells. Flow cytometric analysis demonstrated that GYY4137 accumulated Caco-2 cells in the S phase fraction, suggesting that H2S arrested the cell cycle at G2 and/or M phases. The RNA sequencing analysis demonstrated that GYY4137 modulated the mRNA expression of the genes involved in the G2/M and the spindle assembly checkpoints; increased mRNA levels of Cdkn1a, Gadd45a, and Sfn and decreased mRNA levels of Cdc20, Pttg1, and Ccnb1 were observed. These alterations were confirmed by quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and Western blot analyses. Besides, studies exploring the MEK inhibitor indicated that MEK activation is involved in the GYY4137-mediated increase in the Sfn expression. Altogether, our data showed that H2S reduced the proliferation of intestinal epithelial cells through transcriptional regulation in G2/M and the spindle assembly checkpoints. This may be one of the underlying mechanisms for the observed impaired intestinal integrity in CKD.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The intraventricular pressure differences (IVPD) IVPD using color M-mode is a specific marker in infants of mothers with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). (Circulation R 2019, 378–388).
Purpose
This study investigated the myocardial performance of fetuses in mothers with GDM under the new GDM definition.
Method
The study population comprised of 27 mothers with GDM and the fetus. Women with GDM were defined as those with a glucose metabolism abnormality that existed before or began during the current pregnancy and was diagnosed using OGTTs. The 5 mothers with type 1 or type 2 DM were receiving insulin before their pregnancy. Fetal echo measurements were performed about median gestational age 35 weeks. The primary outcomes were comparisons of the fetal myocardial performance of GDM with insulin administration and without administration using echocardiography with IVPD, and IVPG. The secondary outcome has investigated the relationships between echocardiography parameters, IVPD, and IVPG, and maternal factors. For all statistical analyses, P<0.05 was considered significant.
Result
In the insulin group was higher RV output (Fig. 2A). Maternal max HbA1c was observed to have a positive correlation with fetal RV output, significantly (Fig. 2B). Maternal max fasting blood glucose was observed to have a negative correlation with the Total, Basal and Mid to apical IVPD, significantly, respectively. Serial change of LV Total IVPD from fetal to after birth shown in Slide. In both groups, LV Total IVPD was increasing from fetal and after birth significantly.
Conclusion
The mechanism associated with the favorable systolic and diastolic performances in IGDMs is suggested to involve metabolic adaptations in the heart. In diabetic mice, these adaptations seem to prevent the heart from failing during conditions of pressure overload, suggesting a restoration of the balance between glucose and fatty acid utilization is beneficial for cardiac function. In fetal LV and RV-IVPD might be interacted the mother's blood sugar control. These indexes can predict the sensitive fetal and infant's cardiac dysfunction for GDM.

Abstract
Ammonia is one of the major metabolites produced by intestinal microorganisms; however, its role in intestinal homeostasis is poorly understood. The present study investigated the regulation of intestinal tight junction (TJ) proteins by ammonia and the underlying mechanisms in human intestinal Caco-2 cells. Ammonia (15, 30, and 60 mM) increased the permeability of the cells in a dose-dependent manner, as indicated by reduced transepithelial electrical resistance and increased dextran flux. Immunoblot and immunofluorescence analyses revealed that the ammonia-induced increase in TJ permeability reduced the membrane localization of TJ proteins such as zonula occludens (ZO)1, ZO2, occludin, claudin-1, and claudin-3. DNA microarray analysis identified a biological pathway "response to reactive oxygen species" enriched by ammonia treatment, indicating the induction of oxidative stress in the cells. Ammonia treatment also increased the malondialdehyde content and decreased the ratio of reduced to oxidized glutathione. Meanwhile, ammonia treatment-induced mitochondrial dysfunction, as indicated by the downregulation of genes associated with the electron transport chain, reduction of the cellular ATP, NADH, and tricarboxylic acid cycle intermediate content, and suppression of the mitochondrial membrane potential. In contrast, N-acetyl cysteine reversed the ammonia-induced impairment of TJ permeability and structure without affecting the mitochondrial parameters. Collectively, ammonia impaired the TJ barrier by increasing oxidative stress in Caco-2 cells. A mitochondrial dysfunction is possibly an event preceding ammonia-induced oxidative stress. The findings of this study could potentially improve our understanding of the interplay between intestinal microorganisms and their hosts.

Abstract
The intestinal tight junction (TJ) barrier plays a pivotal role in the regulation of intestinal homeostasis. This study investigated the effects of 3,5,7,3',4'-pentamethoxyflavone (PMF), a major polymethoxyflavone found in black ginger, on TJ barrier regulation using intestinal Caco-2 cells. PMF treatment enhanced the TJ barrier integrity in Caco-2 cells, indicated by increased transepithelial electrical resistance (control, 1261 ± 36 Ω·cm2; 100 μM PMF, 1383 ± 55 Ω·cm2 at 48 h, p < 0.05) and decreased permeability to fluorescein-conjugated dextran (control, 24.2 ± 1.8 pmol/(cm2 × h); 100 μM PMF, 18.6 ± 1.0 pmol/(cm2 × h), p < 0.05). Immunoblot analysis revealed that PMF increased the cytoskeletal association and cellular expression of the TJ proteins, zonula occludens-1, claudin-3, and claudin-4 (e.g., occludin; control, 1.00 ± 0.2; 100 μM PMF, 3.69 ± 0.86 at 48 h, p < 0.05). Quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction analysis and a luciferase promoter assay showed that PMF enhanced the transcription of occludin, claudin-3, and claudin-4. The promoter assay with site-directed mutagenesis indicated that PMF-induced occludin and claudin-3 transcription was mediated by transcription factors, KLF5 and EGR1, respectively, while PMF activated claudin-4 transcription through GATA1 and AP1. Taken together, the transcriptional regulation of TJ proteins is involved in PMF-mediated promotion of the intestinal barrier in vitro.

Abstract
Background In the resting conditions, narrowing the window of coronary pressure measurements from the whole cardiac cycle to diastole improves diagnostic performance of coronary pressure–derived physiological index. However, whether this also applies to the hyperemic conditions has not yet been thoroughly evaluated. Objectives The purpose of this study was to assess whether diastolic fractional flow reserve (diastolic FFR) has better diagnostic performance in identifying ischemia-causing coronary lesions than conventional FFR in a prospective, multicenter, and independent core laboratory–based environment. Methods In this prospective multicenter registry at 29 Japanese centers, we compared the diagnostic performance of FFR, diastolic FFR, resting distal to aortic coronary pressure (Pd/Pa), and diastolic pressure ratio (dPR) using myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (MPS) as the reference standard in 378 patients with single-vessel coronary disease. Results Inducible myocardial ischemia was found on MPS in the relevant myocardial territory of the target vessel in 85 patients (22%). In the receiver-operating curve analyses, diastolic FFR had comparable area under the curve (AUC) compared with FFR (AUCdiastolic FFR: 0.66; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.58-0.73, vs AUCFFR: 0.66; 95% CI: 0.58-0.74, P = 0.624). FFR and diastolic FFR showed significantly larger AUCs than resting Pd/Pa (0.62; 95% CI: 0.54-0.70; P = 0.033 and P = 0.046) but did not show significantly larger AUCs than dPR (0.62; 95% CI: 0.55-0.70; P = 0.102 and P = 0.113). Conclusions Diastolic FFR showed a similar diagnostic performance to FFR as compared with MPS. This result reaffirms the use of FFR as the most accurate invasive physiological lesion assessment.

Abstract
Background Hepatectomy with vascular resection (VR) for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (PHCC) is a challenging procedure. However, only a few reports on this procedure have been published and its clinical significance has not been fully evaluated. Methods Patients undergoing surgical resection for PHCC from 2002–2017 were studied. The surgical outcomes of VR and non-VR groups were compared. Results Some 238 patients were included. VR was performed in 85 patients. The resected vessels were hepatic artery alone (31 patients), portal vein alone (37 patients) or both (17 patients). The morbidity rates were almost the same in the VR (49.4 per cent) and non-VR (43.8 per cent) groups (P = 0.404). The mortality rates of VR (3.5 per cent) and non-VR (3.3 per cent) were also comparable (P > 0.999). The median survival time (MST) was 45 months in the non-VR group and 36 months in VR group (P = 0.124). Among patients in whom tumour involvement was suspected on preoperative imaging and whose carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) value was 37 U/ml or less, MST in the VR group was significantly longer than that in the non-VR group (50 versus 34 months, P = 0.017). In contrast, when the CA19-9 value was greater than 37 U/ml, MST of the VR and non-VR groups was comparable (28 versus 29 months, P = 0.520). Conclusion Hepatectomy with VR for PHCC can be performed in a highly specialized hepatobiliary centre with equivalent short- and long-term outcomes to hepatectomy without VR.

Abstract
Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), including propionate, are major metabolites of intestinal microorganisms and play an essential role in regulating intestinal epithelial integrity. Heat shock proteins (HSPs) promote cellular homeostasis under physiological and stressed conditions. This study aimed to investigate the regulation of intestinal HSP70 by propionate in human intestinal Caco-2 cells and the colon of fermentable dietary fiber (DF)-fed mice and germ-free mice. The results showed that propionate increased Hspa1a (HSP70 mRNA) level in Caco-2 cells, upregulated HSP70 protein, and phosphorylation of heat shock factor 1; however, the latter two were reduced by mitogen-activated protein kinases and the mechanistic target of rapamycin inhibitors. Feeding fermentable DFs, such as guar gum (GG) and partially hydrolyzed GG, increased both cecal SCFAs and colonic HSP70 expression, both of which were reduced in germ-free mice than in specific-pathogen-free mice. Collectively, the propionate-induced HSP70 expression was shown to be possibly involved in intestinal homeostasis.

Abstract
We report observations of gamma-ray emissions with energies in the 100-TeV energy region from the Cygnus region in our Galaxy. Two sources are significantly detected in the directions of the Cygnus OB1 and OB2 associations. Based on their positional coincidences, we associate one with a pulsar PSR J2032+4127 and the other mainly with a pulsar wind nebula PWN G75.2+0.1, with the pulsar moving away from its original birthplace situated around the centroid of the observed gamma-ray emission. This work would stimulate further studies of particle acceleration mechanisms at these gamma-ray sources.

Abstract
Epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma (EMC) is a rare salivary gland cancer characterized by biphasic tubular structures composed of inner ductal and outer clear myoepithelial cells. Because of its histologic variety and overlap of histologic features with other salivary gland tumors, there are broad differential diagnoses. The HRAS Q61R mutation has been reported to be frequent in and specific to EMC. We evaluated the usefulness of RAS Q61R mutant-specific immunohistochemical (IHC) staining for detecting this genetic alteration in EMC. We investigated 83 EMC cases and 66 cases of salivary gland tumors with an EMC-like component, including pleomorphic adenoma, adenoid cystic carcinoma, basal cell adenoma/adenocarcinoma, and myoepithelial carcinoma. Sanger sequencing was performed for HRAS, KRAS, and NRAS. The diffuse and membranous/cytoplasmic RAS Q61R IHC expression was observed in 65% of EMC cases, in which all cases harbored the HRAS Q61R mutation. IHC-positive cases were present only in de novo EMCs (54/76 cases, 71%) but not in EMCs ex pleomorphic adenoma. The immunoreactivity was almost always restricted to the myoepithelial cells. Conversely, all EMC cases lacking the HRAS Q61R mutation were negative on IHC. In addition, only 3% of EMC-like tumors showed the abovementioned immunopositivity. None of the cases examined carried KRAS or NRAS mutations. IHC for RAS Q61R is highly sensitive and specific for detecting the HRAS Q61R mutation in EMC. Since significant immunopositivity was almost exclusively identified in nearly two thirds of EMCs but seldom in the histologic mimics, the IHC of RAS Q61R is a useful tool for diagnosing EMC in general pathology laboratories.
