Abstract
BACKGROUND Social relationships are essential in maintaining the physical and mental health of mothers and their children. However, there is limited evidence on how social support provided to the mother during pregnancy could impact child development. Herein, we examined whether maternal social support levels during pregnancy was associated with the risk of developmental delay in 3-year-old children. METHODS Overall, 68,442 mother-child pairs completed questionnaires on maternal social support during pregnancy and development delay in 3-year-old children. The maternal social support level was evaluated using four items. The risk of development delay was evaluated using the Japanese version of the Ages and Stages Questionnaire-3 (ASQ-3) with five domains of communication, gross motor, fine motor, problem-solving, and personal-social. Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated using logistic regression according to the quintiles of maternal social support levels after adjusting for potential confounding factors. RESULTS Social support during pregnancy was associated with a lower risk of development delay at 3 years of age. Beneficial effects were detected in all domains of the ASQ-3 (p for trend <0.001). Multivariable ORs (95% CIs) for the highest versus lowest quartiles of maternal social support level were 0.57 (0.50-0.65) for communication, 0.49 (0.43-0.55) for gross motor delay, 0.58 (0.53-0.64) for fine motor delay, 0.56 (0.51-0.62) for problem-solving delay, and 0.52 (0.45-0.60) for personal social delay. The associations remained unchanged when stratified by maternal education level, paternal education level, living with children, household income, and postpartum depression. CONCLUSION Maternal social support during pregnancy was inversely associated with the risk of developmental delay at 3 years of age.

Abstract
PURPOSE To identify risk factors for delayed oral nutrition in infants with a congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) and its impact on developmental delay at 18 months of age. METHODS This retrospective single-center cohort study compared the clinical parameters in patients with isolated CDH born and treated at our hospital between 2006 and 2020. We evaluated clinical features significantly related to delayed oral nutrition (defined as taking ≥ 30 days from weaning from mechanical ventilation to weaning from tube feeding). RESULTS Twenty-six of the 80 cases had delayed oral nutrition. Univariate analyses showed significant differences. Multivariate analyses were performed on the three items of preterm delivery, defect size (over 50% to nearly entire defect), and ventilation for ≥ 9 days. We identified the latter two items as independent risk factors. The adjusted odds ratios were 4.65 (95% confidence interval, 1.27-7.03) and 6.02 (1.65-21.90), respectively. Delayed oral nutrition was related to a significantly higher probability of developmental delay at 18 months (crude odds ratio 4.16, 1.19-14.5). CONCLUSION In patients with CDH, a large defect and ventilatory management over 9 days are independent risk factors for delayed oral nutrition, which is a potent predictor of developmental delay that requires active developmental care.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The study aimed to evaluate the association between bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) development at 36 weeks' postmenstrual age (PMA) and Gram-negative bacteria in tracheal aspirate cultures among extremely preterm infants. STUDY DESIGN This study has a retrospective cohort. Patients were 155 infants aged less than or equal to 26 gestational weeks who were admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit of Osaka Women's and Children's Hospital from 2009 to 2018. Primary outcome was respiratory outcomes expressed as BPD development.Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to identify neonatal and bacterial factors associated with BPD. RESULTS After adjusting for gestational age, birth weight, sex, chorioamnionitis, Gram-positive cocci (GPC) and Gram-negative rods (GNRs) in tracheal aspirate cultures within 28 days after birth, GNRs were significantly associated with BPD development (odds ratio [OR]: 3.88, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.68-8.94). In contrast, GPCs were not associated with BPD development (OR: 0.47, 95% CI: 0.05-1.61). CONCLUSION Gram-negative bacteria in tracheal cultures within 28 days of birth are associated with BPD development in infants aged less than or equal to 26 gestational weeks. KEY POINTS · BPD is a factor for morbidity in extremely preterm infants.. · Respiratory infection is an adverse outcome of BPD.. · GNRs in tracheal cultures soon after birth disturb BPD development.. · GPC was not associated with BPD development..

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the survival and intact-survival rates among preterm infants with congenital diaphragm hernia (CDH). STUDY DESIGN Multicenter retrospective cohort study of 849 infants born between 2006 and 2020 at 15 Japanese CDH study group facilities. Multivariate logistic regression analysis adjusted using inverse probability treatment weighting (IPTW) method was used. We also compare trends of intact-survival rates among term and preterm infants with CDH. RESULTS After adjusting using the IPTW method for CDH severity, sex, APGAR score at 5 min, and cesarean delivery, gestational age and survival rates have a significantly positive correlation [coefficient of determination (COEF) 3.40, 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.58-5.21, p value <0.001] and higher intact-survival rate [COEF 2.39, 95% CI, 1.73-4.06, p value 0.005]. Trends of intact-survival rates for both preterm and term infants had significantly changed, but improvement in preterm infants was much smaller than in term infants. CONCLUSION Prematurity was a significant risk factor for survival and intact-survival among infants with CDH, regardless of adjustment for CDH severity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the association between providing leaflets to support pediatricians in explaining the safety of the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine and mother's decision to vaccinate their daughters in Japan. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, we conducted a survey of mothers to evaluate the effect of leaflets that were created to support pediatricians in explaining the safety profile of the HPV vaccine. Mothers who provided consent for vaccination before receiving an explanation were excluded from the study. The primary outcome was the mother's decision to vaccinatetheir daughters with the HPV vaccine after receiving an explanation from pediatricians using our leaflets. RESULTS Among 161 eligible mothers, 101 decided on HPV vaccination (decided group) and 60 did not (decided against group). There was no difference in the maternal background between the 2 groups. The decided group had a significantly more positive impression of the leaflets than the undecided group. In multivariable logistic regression analysis, a detailed explanation for possible adverse events and specific solutions to them was associated with the mother's decision to have their daughters vaccinated (odds ratio 2.35, 95% confidence interval 1.02-5.44), but not the pathology of cervical cancer and the HPV vaccination process. CONCLUSION Leaflets emphasizing an explanation of adverse events may contribute to mothers' decision making for HPV vaccination.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the incidence of umbilical cord prolapse (UCP) and its influence on infant prognosis in pregnant women with preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM). MATERIALS AND METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study in a single tertiary perinatal center between 2009 and 2017. Singleton pregnancies with PPROM that occurred between 22 and 33 weeks of gestation were included. Infantile composite adverse outcome consisted of death, severe intraventricular hemorrhage, cystic periventricular leukomalacia, necrotizing enterocolitis, and sepsis before discharge. Infantile outcomes were compared between pregnancies that were complicated by UCP and those that were not. RESULTS Out of 208 singleton pregnancies included in the analysis, UCP occurred in 12 (5.8%) cases. The gestational age of pregnancies with UCP was significantly lesser than that of those without UCP. The incidence of infantile composite adverse outcome in patients with UCP was 16.7%, and this was not significantly higher than the incidence in patients without UCP (6.6%, P = 0.21). UCP was not shown to be associated with infantile composite adverse outcome in a multivariate regression model. Gestational age <25 weeks at delivery was significantly associated with infantile composite adverse outcome. CONCLUSIONS The incidence of UCP was 5.8% among singleton pregnancies, with PPROM being managed expectantly between 22 and 33 weeks' gestation. Preterm UCP may not be associated with infantile adverse outcomes provided emergency cesarean delivery is available at all time.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Denosumab treatment of osteoporotic patients, except those with severe renal insufficiency, reduced cCa levels. Low baseline cCa, low estimated glomerular filtration rate, and high bone turnover increased the risk of lower cCa, while increasing bone mineral density. Pretreatment with antiresorptive agents was beneficial in reducing the risk of hypocalcemia. INTRODUCTION Although denosumab-induced hypocalcemia has been frequently observed in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stages 4-5D being treated with denosumab for osteoporosis, few studies have assessed the risk factors for serum-corrected calcium (cCa) reductions in patients with non-severe renal insufficiency. This study assessed the risk factors for reduced cCa concentration following denosumab administration and analyzed factors predictive of changes in bone mineral density (BMD). METHODS Seventy-seven osteoporotic patients, not including those with CKD stages 4-5D, were treated with 60 mg denosumab once every 6 months. Biochemical parameters and BMD were analyzed from prior to the initial dose until 1 month after the second dose. RESULTS Following the first administration of denosumab, cCa levels decreased, reaching a minimum on day 7. Multiple linear regression analyses showed that baseline cCa, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase-5b (TRACP-5b), and bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP) or pretreatment with antiresorptive agents were significant factors independently associated with the absolute reduction in cCa from baseline to day 7 (ΔcCa0-7 days). ΔcCa0-7 days after the second dose of denosumab was significantly lower than that after the first dose. After 6 months of denosumab treatment, both LS-BMD and FN-BMD significantly increased from baseline. LS-BMD and FN-BMD correlated significantly with baseline TRACP-5b or BAP and eGFR, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Both low eGFR and high bone turnover were independent risk factors for denosumab-induced cCa decrement, and for increases in BMD. Pretreatment with antiresorptive agents may reduce the risk of hypocalcemia.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Serum undercarboxylated osteocalcin (ucOC)/intact osteocalcin (iOC) ratio increased >1.0 in the patients undergoing hemodialysis, particularly in those with high bone turnover state. Consequently, serum ucOC/iOC ratio might lose its significance as a bone metabolic marker to indicate vitamin K deficiency in hemodialysis patients. INTRODUCTION Serum intact osteocalcin (iOC), undercarboxylated OC (ucOC), and the ucOC/iOC ratio are considered clinically relevant indices in pre-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) and hemodialysis (HD) patients, despite their accumulation in uremic serum. METHODS Serum iOC and ucOC were measured along with serum intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP), and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRACP)-5b in 89 pre-dialysis CKD and 189 HD patients. RESULTS Serum iOC and ucOC showed significantly negative correlations with estimated glomerular filtration rate in pre-dialysis CKD patients, although serum ucOC/iOC ratio did not correlate. Serum ucOC was significantly greater in HD patients than in pre-dialysis CKD patients, while serum iOC did not differ significantly, resulting in serum ucOC/iOC ratio >1.0 in 135 (71.4%) out of 189 HD patients. HD patients with high serum ucOC/iOC ratio (>1.0) had a significantly younger age and significantly higher values of body mass index, serum creatinine, albumin, phosphate, iPTH, and TRACP-5b than those with low ucOC/iOC ratio (≤ 1.0). The baseline iPTH and P1NP correlated with the changes of the ucOC/iOC ratio during the 2 days of the inter-dialytic period. Multivariate analysis showed that log [ucOC/iOC] in HD patients was significantly associated with log [iPTH], log [BAP], or log [TRACP-5b]. CONCLUSIONS Serum ucOC/iOC ratio >1.0 was observed in as high as 71.4% of HD patients, preferentially with high bone turnover state, in comparison with pre-dialysis CKD patients. These data suggested that serum ucOC/iOC ratio might lose its significance as a bone metabolic marker to indicate vitamin K deficiency in HD patients.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Cortical porosity is increasingly recognized as an important risk for fracture in DM patients. The present study demonstrated that decreased cortical thickness, assessed using a newly developed quantitative ultrasonic bone densitometry, is a significant risk factor for vertebral fractures in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with stage 3 or higher chronic kidney disease, but not in those without. INTRODUCTION Cortical porosity is increasingly recognized as an important risk factor for fracture in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients as well as in stage 3 chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients in whom serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) starts to increase. The present study aimed to clarify whether the coexistence of CKD might affect the relationship of decreased cortical thickness (CoTh) in the development of vertebral fractures (VF) in T2DM patients. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, trabecular bone mineral density (TrBMD), elastic modulus of trabecular bone (EMTb), and CoTh were estimated with a new quantitative ultrasound bone densitometry in 173 T2DM patients. VFs were identified radiographically. RESULTS Thirty-nine patients (22.5%) had VF. Those with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60 mL/min/1.73 m(2) (low eGFR) showed a significantly higher VF rate (32.4%) than those with eGFR ≥60 mL/min/1.73 m(2) (high eGFR, 16.2%). Serum PTH was significantly higher with low eGFR than with high eGFR. In those with high eGFR, EMTb was significantly lower in VF(+) than VF(-). In those with low eGFR, TrBMD, EMTb, and CoTh were significantly lower in VF(+) than in VF(-). In a multivariate logistic regression analysis, EMTb was independently and significantly associated with VF in T2DM patients with a high eGFR, in contrast to those with only CoTh with VF in T2DM with low eGFR. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated CoTh as a factor independently associated with VF in T2DM patients with low eGFR and increasing serum PTH levels.

Abstract
UNLABELLED We reported previously that serum parathyroid hormone [PTH(1-84)]/intact PTH[PTH(1-84) + PTH(7-84)] ratio provides the better marker for parathyroid function and bone turnover state than serum PTH level itself. The present study demonstrated that higher PTH(1-84)/intact PTH ratio, but not serum PTH(1-84) and intact PTH, predicted higher all-cause mortality in 177 male hemodialysis patients. INTRODUCTION We reported that PTH(1-84)/intact PTH ratio provides a clinically relevant marker for parathyroid function and the resultant bone turnover state. The purpose of our study was to investigate the association of PTH(1-84)/intact PTH ratio with all-cause mortality (ACM) in male hemodialysis patients. METHODS The study was performed for 70 months. Serum PTH in 177 male hemodialysis patients was measured with PTH(1-84)-specific whole PTH assay and intact PTH assay which cross-reacts with N-truncated PTH including PTH(7-84). RESULTS The patients (n = 177) were divided into higher and lower halves based on serum levels of PTH(1-84)/intact PTH ratio (cutoff value, 0.484), intact PTH (143.8 pg/mL), and PTH(1-84) (64.1 pg/mL). In Kaplan-Meier analysis, the higher group in whole PTH/intact PTH ratio had significantly higher ACM than the lower group (P = 0.020 by log-rank test), in contrast with the insignificant difference between the higher and lower groups in intact PTH and PTH(1-84). Multivariate Cox regression hazard analysis identified higher log [PTH(1-84)/intact PTH ratio], but not log intact PTH or log PTH(1-84) as a significant independent predictor [hazard ratio 14.428 (95% CI 2.486-83.728)] for ACM after adjustment for various factors including age, hemodialysis duration, presence/absence of diabetes mellitus, BMI, log C-reactive protein, serum albumin, calcium, and phosphate. The association existed between log [PTH(1-84)/intact PTH ratio] and ACM in those without vitamin D administration (n = 95). CONCLUSION Higher PTH(1-84)/intact PTH ratio, which provides a relevant marker for parathyroid function, may be a significant predictor of ACM in male hemodialysis patients.

Abstract
Wnt-β-catenin signaling is important for bone formation. Sclerostin inhibits bone formation mainly by suppressing this signal, and several studies suggest that the suppression of sclerostin expression contributes to the bone anabolic action of parathyroid hormone (PTH). We therefore examined serum sclerostin levels using enzyme-linked immunosolvent assay in 18 patients with postmenopausal osteoporosis, 9 postmenopausal women with primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) and 7 patients with osteomalacia. Serum levels of sclerostin were significantly lower in the group with pHPT, compared with those with postmenopausal osteoporosis. Moreover, serum sclerostin levels were significantly lower in the group with tumor-induced osteomalacia, but not in the group with osteomalacia without tumor, compared with those with postmenopausal osteoporosis. In patients with pHPT, serum sclerostin levels were significantly and negatively correlated to serum calcium and PTH levels. In patients with postmenopausal osteoporosis, serum levels of sclerostin levels were significantly and positively related to serum calcium and creatinine levels. In conclusion, we showed that serum sclerostin levels are decreased presumably through endogenous PTH elevation in postmenopausal women with pHPT, compared with the patients with postmenopausal osteoporosis.

Abstract
UNLABELLED In cinacalcet treatment of hemodialysis (HD) patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT), not only intact parathyroid hormone (I-PTH), whole PTH (W-PTH), and bone markers, but also W-PTH/I-PTH ratio as proportion of active PTH(1-84) molecules were decreased. Changes in W-PTH/I-PTH ratio significantly correlated and predicted changes in bone marker. INTRODUCTION Cinacalcet partly suppresses the secretion of PTH by enhancing PTH(1-84) degradation into N-truncated fragments. The objectives of this study is to investigate the significance of the N-truncated PTH/PTH(1-84) ratio for the prediction of the effect of cinacalcet in HD patients. METHODS Serum parameters were measured during 12 weeks of oral cinacalcet administration at 25 mg daily in 39 HD patients with SHPT. RESULTS Serum Ca, Pi, W-PTH, I-PTH, and W-PTH/I-PTH ratio all decreased significantly in a time-dependent manner during cinacalcet administration. Serum tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) 5b reflected these changes more precisely than serum N-telopeptide of type-I collagen. At 1 week, changes in I-PTH and W-PTH correlated significantly with those in serum Pi, but not Ca. Changes in serum Pi (but not Ca) and serum W-PTH also correlated significantly with changes in serum TRAP5b at both 4 and 12 weeks, while changes in serum I-PTH correlated significantly with those in serum TRAP5b only at 12 weeks. Changes in the serum W-PTH/I-PTH ratio correlated significantly with those in serum TRAP5b at both 4 and 12 weeks, and changes in serum W-PTH/I-PTH ratio at 4 weeks showed a tendency for a correlation with changes in serum TRAP5b at 12 weeks. HD patients with a reduced W-PTH/I-PTH ratio after 4 weeks had a significantly greater reduction of TRAP5b over 12 weeks. CONCLUSION W-PTH and the W-PTH/I-PTH ratio allow estimation of the potency of cinacalcet in enhancement of PTH degradation, and thus no less reliable markers than I-PTH for reflecting cinacalcet-induced bone resorption.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The serum creatinine level is significantly lower in well-nourished hemodialysis patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) than in their non-DM counterparts, despite the presence of anuria in these patients. The factors associated with this finding have not been determined. PATIENTS AND METHODS We evaluated the association of serum creatinine with handgrip strength (HGS) and lean body mass index (LMI) in a cross-sectional study of 102 DM and 208 non-DM hemodialysis patients to determine if poorer muscle quality in DM patients could explain the reduced level of serum creatinine. All the DM patients were well-nourished. Grip dynamometry and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) were used to measure HGS and LMI, respectively. RESULTS The DM patients had a significantly lower serum creatinine level and HGS compared to the non-DM patients, but whole-body LMI and LMI of the upper limbs did not differ between the two groups of patients. The DM patients had significantly lower serum creatinine/whole-body LMI, serum creatinine/arm LMI, HGS/whole-body LMI, and HGS/arm LMI ratios. The serum creatinine level was significantly correlated with HGS and with whole-body and upper limb LMI in both groups of patients. However, regression analyses of LMI with serum creatinine and HGS gave significantly shallower slopes for the DM patients compared to the non-DM patients. CONCLUSION This suggests that the muscle strength generated per unit of muscle mass, which is reflected well by the serum creatinine level, is significantly reduced in DM hemodialysis patients. Therefore, our results show that the significantly lower serum creatinine levels in DM hemodialysis patients compared to non-DM hemodialysis patients may be explained by poor muscle quality rather than by reduced muscle mass or malnutrition.

Abstract
Combination therapy with adefovir dipivoxil (ADV) and lamivudine (LAM) is recommended for patients infected with LAM-refractory hepatitis B virus (HBV). However, the effects of such therapy on renal function and serum phosphorus levels have not been fully evaluated. Combination therapy with ADV and LAM was given to 37 patients infected with LAM-refractory HBV, including 17 with hepatic cirrhosis. Serum HBV DNA levels decreased to below 2.6 log(10) copies/mL in 23 (62%) of 37 patients at 12 months, 25 (78%) of 32 patients at 24 months, and 16 (84%) of 19 patients at 36 months. Except for one cirrhotic patient, serum alanine aminotransferase levels were below 50 IU/L in all patients during combination therapy. Serum creatinine levels increased in 14 (38%) of 37 patients, and serum phosphate levels decreased to below 2.5 mg/mL in 6 (16%) of 37 patients during combination therapy. Patients who received combination therapy for 36 months or longer had a significantly incidence of elevated serum creatinine levels. Fanconi syndrome occurred in a 57-year-old woman with cirrhosis after ADV was added to LAM. Combination therapy with ADV and LAM can maintain biochemical remission in patients with LAM-refractory HBV. However, the dosing interval of ADV should be adjusted according to renal function and serum phosphate levels in patients receiving long-term treatment.

Abstract
UNLABELLED As the serum calcium and glomerular filtration rate decreased, the proportion of active PTH(1-84) molecules in PTH immunoreactivity increased in serum from predialysis uremic patients, particularly those with vitamin D insufficiency. INTRODUCTION The PTH(1-84) fraction was altered in predialysis patients with chronic renal failure (CRF). METHODS Serum PTH in predialysis CRF patients without any medication was measured by PTH(1-84)-specific whole PTH assay and intact PTH assay cross-reacting with N-truncated PTH. RESULTS In CRF patients, the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) correlated positively with serum Ca and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)(2)D), and inversely with serum Pi, log intact PTH, and log whole PTH. In multiple regression analysis, including age, gender, body mass index, GFR, Ca, and Pi and 1,25(OH)(2)D as independent variables, serum Ca and GFR associated significantly with serum log whole PTH and intact PTH. Serum log whole PTH/intact PTH ratio, which increased as serum Ca and GFR decreased, retained a negative correlation in those with serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels below 20 ng/ml, but not in those above 20 ng/ml. The ratio also correlated positively with serum log tartrate-resistant acid-phosphatase-5b, log cross-linked N-telopeptide of type-I collagen, and log bone alkaline-phosphatase. CONCLUSION As GFR declined with suppression of serum Ca, the proportion of active PTH molecules increased in predialysis CRF patients, particularly those with vitamin D insufficiency.

Abstract
Neuropilin-1 (NRP1) functions as a coreceptor through interaction with plexin A1 or vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor during neuronal development and angiogenesis. NRP1 potentiates the signaling pathways stimulated by semaphorin 3A and VEGF-A in neuronal and endothelial cells, respectively. In this study, we investigate the role of tumor cell-expressed NRP1 in glioma progression. Analyses of human glioma specimens (WHO grade I-IV tumors) revealed a significant correlation of NRP1 expression with glioma progression. In tumor xenografts, overexpression of NRP1 by U87MG gliomas strongly promoted tumor growth and angiogenesis. Overexpression of NRP1 by U87MG cells stimulated cell survival through the enhancement of autocrine hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF)/c-Met signaling. NRP1 not only potentiated the activity of endogenous HGF/SF on glioma cell survival but also enhanced HGF/SF-promoted cell proliferation. Inhibition of HGF/SF, c-Met and NRP1 abrogated NRP1-potentiated autocrine HGF/SF stimulation. Furthermore, increased phosphorylation of c-Met correlated with glioma progression in human glioma biopsies in which NRP1 is upregulated and in U87MG NRP1-overexpressing tumors. Together, these data suggest that tumor cell-expressed NRP1 promotes glioma progression through potentiating the activity of the HGF/SF autocrine c-Met signaling pathway, in addition to enhancing angiogenesis, suggesting a novel mechanism of NRP1 in promoting human glioma progression.

Abstract
Adipose tissue is a useful tool for management of most complex cardiothoracic problems, including the reinforcement of damaged lungs, and adipose tissue-derived stromal cells (ASCs) have been suggested to secrete hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), a multipotent regenerative factor that contributes to the repair process after lung injury. The goal of this study was to demonstrate the therapeutic impact of autologous transplantation of ASCs through HGF supplementation for the enhancement of alveolar repair in a rat model of emphysema. ASCs were isolated from inguinal subcutaneous fat pads and characterized by flow cytometry. Cultured ASC were found to secrete significantly larger amounts of HGF (15 112 +/- 1628 pg per 10(6) cells) than other angiogenic factors. Transplantation of ASCs into elastase-treated emphysema models induced a significant increase in endogenous HGF expression in lung tissues with a small amount of increase in other organs, with the high levels lasting for up to 4 weeks after transplantation. Further, alveolar and vascular regeneration were significantly enhanced via inhibition of alveolar cell apoptosis, enhancement of epithelial cell proliferation and promotion of angiogenesis in pulmonary vasculature, leading to restoration of pulmonary function affected by emphysema. These data suggest that autologous ASC cell therapy may have a therapeutic potential for pulmonary emphysema, through inducing HGF expression selectively in injured lung tissues.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 23 is a recently identified circulating factor that regulates phosphate (Pi) metabolism. Since the derangement of Pi control is an important risk factor for vascular calcification, we investigated the importance of plasma FGF-23 in the development of vascular calcification in the aorta and peripheral artery in hemodialysis patients with and without diabetes mellitus (DM). METHODS Male hemodialysis patients with DM (n=32) and without DM (n=56) were examined. Plasma samples were obtained before the start of dialysis sessions, and the FGF-23 levels were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Roentgenography of the aorta and hand artery was performed, and visible vascular calcification was evaluated by one examiner, who was blinded to the patient characteristics. RESULTS In the 56 non-DM hemodialysis patients, vascular calcification was found in the hand artery in 5 patients (8.9%) and in the aorta in 23 patients (41.1%). These levels were significantly lower (p<0.05) than in the 32 DM patients, of whom, 19 (59.4%) and 21 (65.6%) had vascular calcification of the hand artery and aorta, respectively. Multiple regression analyses performed separately in the non-DM and DM patients showed that the plasma FGF-23 level, CaxPi product, and body weight are independent factors significantly associated with hand-artery calcification and that diastolic blood pressure is associated with aorta calcification in non-DM patients. In DM patients, the plasma FGF-23 level and hemodialysis duration emerged as independent factors associated with hand-artery calcification and diastolic blood pressure was associated with aorta calcification. The independent association of the plasma FGF-23 level with hand-artery calcification was retained in both non-DM and DM patients when adjusted for the CaxPi product. CONCLUSION Our findings show that the plasma FGF-23 level is an independent factor negatively associated with peripheral vascular calcification in the hand artery, but not in the aorta, in both male non-DM and DM hemodialysis patients, even when adjusted for the CaxPi product. This study raises the possibility that the plasma FGF-23 level may provide a reliable marker for Moenckeberg's medial calcification in male hemodialysis patients, independent of its regulatory effect on Pi metabolism.

Abstract
The procedure for reconstruction of the extensive defect after total glossectomy with total laryngectomy has not been standardised so far. We have devised a new method in which a free jejunal patch is extended to a sigmoid-shaped form specifically optimised for reconstruction of the defect that consists of the entire floor of the mouth and the antero-lateral walls of the pharyngoesophageal tract. After a jejunal segment of about 40 cm has been longitudinally opened in full length, the proximal quarter is folded parallel to the second quarter, which is then folded parallel to the third quarter in the opposite direction, to be laid out in a S-shaped form. Side-by-side sutures are then placed along each of the folded borders and corrective trimming is done to fit the defect. This widely extended patch replaces the whole oral base, whereas the remaining distal quarter of the patch replaces the antero-lateral walls of the hypopharynx and cervical esophagus. Because of the encouraging functional results with satisfactory restoration of oral alimentation, this procedure is considered to be ideal for the reconstruction of the defect which follows total glossectomy with total laryngectomy.

Abstract
Although labile, assay of intact osteocalcin (iOC) is established as the standard assay for evaluating osteoblastic function. The present study examines the clinical usefulness of the newly developed immunoradiometric assay for osteocalcin (OC), which identifies the stable N-terminal midfragment of OC (N-MID OC assay), in hemodialysis (HD) patients. The performance of N-MID OC assay was compared to that of iOC assay in the sera obtained from 137 male HD patients, by comparing these assays with those of other bone metabolic markers and bone loss during a 1-year period before determination of serum markers. Serum N-MID OC values did not decrease significantly during 24 h incubation at room temperature, whereas serum iOC decreased significantly after 1 h incubation. Serum N-MID and iOC in the 137 male HD patients were 197.3 +/- 57.8 and 34.6 +/- 30.0 ng/ml, respectively, or 3.9 +/- 3.1 and 2.8 +/- 2.4 times above the respective reported normal upper limits. Serum N-MID OC correlated significantly in a positive manner with serum iOC (r = 0.934, P < 0.0001). Serum N-MID OC correlated no less significantly in a positive manner with serum levels of bone alkaline phosphatase, deoxypyridinoline, and intact parathyroid hormone compared to serum iOC. Of interest was the fact that serum N-MID OC, but not iOC, correlated significantly with both the amount and the rate of bone loss at the distal radius 1/3. In summary, the findings suggest that N-MID OC immunoreactivity is much more stable than iOC immunoreactivity and that N-MID OC assay may be less susceptible to the OC fragments reported to accumulate in uremic serum. It may, therefore, prove more reliable than iOC assay for evaluating bone turnover, and thus for reflecting bone loss, in HD patients.

Abstract
Covalent immobilization of heparin has been developed to reduce the amount of heparin administered systematically during long-term dialysis. Recently, it was doubted partially because of the complexion during immobilization process. In this study, we investigated a novel method for specific immobilization of heparin on polysulfone (PSF) via free electron laser (FEL) irradiation. Laser wavelengths of 6.18 or 6.31 microm, the typical absorption bands of carboxyl groups of heparin and aromatic rings in PSF, respectively, were chosen to irradiate the thin heparin membrane formed on PSF surfaces. The amount of heparin immobilized on PSF was measured by the toluidine blue method. The binding of heparin on PSF was analyzed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The immobilization of heparin resulted in a hydrophilic surface on which decreased platelet adhesion was observed. The efficiency differences, depending on laser wavelengths, were discussed from the point of view of structural and environmental differences of light-absorbing groups.

Abstract
The dimorphic transition from yeast to pseudohyphae in Candida tropicalis occurs following the addition of ethanol to a synthetic medium containing glucose. We developed a method of subtractive gene cloning to isolate genes, of which the expression was apparently specific for pseudohyphal formation in this organism. Subtraction was performed between sense-strand cDNAs instead of mRNAs from cells of the ethanol culture and anti-sense cDNAs linking to Dynabeads oligo(dT)25 from those of the control culture. Dynabeads oligo(dT)25 are paramagnetic beads with 25 nucleotide-long chains of deoxythymidines covalently linked to their surface and were expected to be easily collected using a magnet. This method using Dynabeads oligo(dT)25 minimizes the degradation of mRNA and makes it easy to construct a cDNA library sufficient to analyze the genetic information on the yeast-to-hyphae transition. Using this strategy, we identified several genes including a homologue of CPP1 coding tyrosine phosphatase and a homologue of nmt1+ encoding protein, which was reported to regulate thiamine biosynthesis.

Abstract
A new macromolecular catalyst, which is composed of nonnatural ribonucleotide, was synthesized by the in vitro selection (SELEX) method. A pool of RNAs consisting of random sequences was obtained by transcription from a pool of synthetic random-sequence DNAs in the presence of 2'-aminocytidine triphosphate (2'-amino-CTP) instead of CTP. The pool was incubated with N-methylmesoporphyrin-immobilized gel; bound nonnatural RNAs were then collected and amplified by reverse-transcription following the polymerase chain reaction. The amplified DNAs were again transcribed in the presence of 2'-amino-CTP and applied to the gel. This selection process was repeated 10 times. The selected RNAs were cloned and sequenced. The RNAs not only bound to the ligand, N-methylmesoporphyrin but also catalyzed the metalation reaction of porphyrin.

Abstract
Heparin was immobilized on a polystyrene plate in a graded micropattern by photolithography. The micropattern was confirmed by staining with brilliant green. In the presence of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), the growth of NIH3T3 cells was enhanced only in the heparin-immobilized regions. This result indicated that gradient-micropattern-immobilized heparin activated bFGF for cell growth. In addition, the growth of cells was found to be affected by the surface density of immobilized heparin. The surface density was regulated by a gap length of 2 microm-width stripes immobilized with heparin. Although a high density (a region having short gap length) of immobilized heparin suppressed the cell growth in the absence of bFGF, it enhanced cell growth in the presence of bFGF. The dependence of cell function on the density of immobilized heparin was visualized by gradient-micropattern-immobilization.

Abstract
A ligase ribozyme accelerating a ligation reaction with oligonucleotide under a low-pH condition was selected by in vitro adaptation. A ribozyme active at pH 7 was randomly mutated, and the resultant RNA library was subjected to in vitro adaptation under a low-pH reaction condition. At pH 4, the adapted RNAs reacted with the oligonucleotide substrates about 200 times faster than the original ribozyme. When the ribozyme was cloned and sequenced, 10 of the 30 clones sequenced had identical sequences. The differences in sequence from the original ribozyme were found at four positions in the middle region and at the 3' end. A few sequential differences dominated the activity of the ribozyme under the extreme condition. The adapted ribozyme had one repeating sequence that was critical for the activity.

Abstract
Parathyroid adenomas are benign neoplasms that over-secrete parathyroid hormone and cause hypercalcemia. A subset of parathyroid adenomas contain a clonal chromosomal rearrangement in which the cyclin D1 oncogene is juxtaposed to the upstream region of the PTH gene, resulting in cyclin D1 overexpression. To examine whether cyclin D1 oncogene can drive primary hyperparathyroidism, transgenic mice were created carrying the human cyclin D1 gene ligated to the upstream region of human PTH gene, mimicking the human tumor gene rearrangement. These mice provide an animal model of primary hyperparathyroidism to understand the molecular pathogenesis and pathophysiology of the disease.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the efficiency of baculoviruses (BVs) to transfer recombinant genes in vivo into murine ocular tissues. METHODS Recombinant (r)BVs carrying fluorescent protein (FP) cDNA under the control of cytomegalovirus (CMV) immediate early promoter were constructed. Initially, cultured HEK293 and ARPE19 cells were infected with these rBVs and analyzed for efficiency and stability of transgene expression. The rBV-CMV green (G)FP was also injected into the intravitreal and subretinal space of mouse eye. Mice were periodically analyzed to determine the efficiency and stability of expression by histologic examination under fluorescence microscopy. The effect of rBV-CMV-GFP on the physiology of the retina was analyzed by electroretinography. RESULTS cDNAs encoding fluorescent proteins were efficiently transduced in HEK293 and ARPE19 cells in vitro. GFP expression in vivo was observed exclusively in retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells after subretinal injections. Intravitreal injections of rBV resulted in GFP expression in the corneal endothelium, lens, RPE, and retina. GFP expression was observed for up to 14 days after injection. The infiltration of macrophages, observed 2 days after injection in the area of GFP transduction, had dissipated by day 8 after injection. No alteration in ERG responses was observed 6 weeks after injection of rBV-CMV-GFP. CONCLUSIONS BV efficiently transduces cultured RPE cells and many cell types in vivo in the eye, including endothelial, epithelial, and neuronal cells. BV may be a useful vector for transferring genes in cultured cells and in vivo into ocular tissue.

Abstract
Peroxidase activities of RNAs containing 2'-amino groups, which were selected as aptamers binding to N-methylmesoporphyrin IX, were investigated. Some clones promoted the oxidation reaction of 2,2'-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) with hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) in the presence of iron(III)-protoporphyrin (hemin), whereas others did not. Each of them had a different substrate specificity. One of the active clones promoted the oxidation of o-dianisidine and beta-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide reduced form (NADH) with H(2)O(2) 5 and 15 times faster than hemin only, respectively. On the other hand, one clone that was inactive on oxidation of ABTS exhibited the same level of activity on oxidation of o-dianisidine as that shown by the clone active on ABTS but no activity on NADH. By in vitro selection, we can produce various types of peroxidase-like non-natural RNAs.

Abstract
In vitro selection or the systematic evolution of ligands by an exponential enrichment (SELEX) technique using a biotin-carrying nucleotide monomer was used for the development of a new type of molecular recognition sensor. Cytidine triphosphate (CTP) carrying the biotinyl group at the N4-position was applied for the technique. A pool of random sequence RNAs containing biotinyl groups in the side chains was prepared, and the RNAs binding to adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) were selected. The selected nonnatural RNAs were used for an assay of ATP. Since they carried multiple biotin groups in the side chains, the sensitivity was high.

Abstract
Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) gene was identified to be a tumor suppressor that encodes menin, playing an important role in the development of MEN1-associated tumors. Somatic MEN1 gene mutations also were detected in sporadic non-MEN1 endocrine tumors. Frequent loss of chromosomal arm 1p has been reported in parathyroid adenomas, suggesting the existence of putative tumor-suppressor genes on 1p. In this study, we performed allelotyping of chromosomes 1p and 11q on 60 sporadic parathyroid adenomas. Thirteen of 48 (27%) informative tumors had allelic loss on 1p, and 18 of 50 (36%) had allelic loss on 11q. Ten of 18 tumors with 11q allelic loss successfully completed the sequence of the MEN1 gene coding region and splice junctions, and 3 of 10 (30%) tumors had no somatic mutation, indicating that other putative tumor-suppressor genes on 11q may contribute to their tumorigenesis. Frequency of allelic losses on 1p was significantly higher in tumors without 11q allelic losses (7 of 11 informative tumors [64%]) than in tumors with 11q allelic losses (3 of 17 informative tumors [18%]) by chi-square test (P = 0.0131; chi-square = 6.152). These observations suggested that putative tumor-suppressor genes locate on 1p, and pathways of their tumorigenesis are independent from inactivation of tumor-suppressor genes on 11q.

Abstract
Diabetic bone disease is characterized by low bone turnover resulting from impaired secretion of parathyroid hormone (PTH). However, it was suggested that the difference in duration of hemodialysis (HD) therapy and age of patients between HD patients with and without diabetes mellitus (DM) may be responsible for a significant reduction in serum intact PTH (iPTH) level in HD patients with DM. The present study showed that although such major factors affecting PTH secretion as age, sex, HD duration, and serum calcium, phosphate, and magnesium levels did not differ significantly between HD patients with and without DM, serum iPTH levels were still significantly lower in HD patients with than without DM. Among biochemical markers for bone metabolism, serum levels of intact osteocalcin (iOC) and deoxypyridinoline (DPD) were significantly lower in HD patients with than without DM, whereas serum bone-specific alkaline phosphatase, pyridinoline, and beta-crosslaps did not differ significantly between the two groups of patients. In summary, our findings indicate that PTH secretion may be significantly impaired in HD patients with DM compared with those without DM, and serum iOC and DPD are bone markers sensitive enough to detect low bone turnover in HD patients with DM.

Abstract
As we previously reported, 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) dose-dependently inhibited not only proliferation of undifferentiated murine erythroleukemia (MEL) cells but also activin A-induced erythroid differentiation of MEL cells. However, the effect of 1,25(OH)2D3 on MEL cell proliferation was significantly greater by one order of magnitude than that on differentiation (IC(50): 9.2 vs 0.8 nM, respectively). The response of activin A-treated mature MEL cells to 1,25(OH)2D3 in the induction of 1,25(OH)2D3-24-hydroxylase (24-OHase) activity, a rapid effect of 1,25(OH)2D3, was enhanced to the same degree as in untreated immature cells, suggesting that differences in capacity of cells to inactivate 1,25(OH)2D3 did not contribute to augmentation of 1,25(OH)2D3 effect in activin A-treated mature cells. Furthermore, neither the number nor the affinity of vitamin D receptors (VDR) differed significantly between activin A-treated cells and untreated immature cells. The intracellular cAMP level, which affects 1,25(OH)2D3-mediated induction of 24-OHase activity, was significantly less in activin A-treated mature cells than in immature MEL cells. The addition of dibutyryl cAMP (dbc AMP) to activin A-treated MEL cells dose-dependently attenuated 1,25(OH)2D3-mediated induction of 24-OHase activity, finally to a level comparable to that of the untreated cells at the final concentration of 100 nM dbcAMP, while dbcAMP itself by 100 nM did not affect MEL cell differentiation by 24 h. In summary, we have shown for the first time that 1,25(OH)2D3 exerted its effect on leukemia cells at physiological concentration and that the magnitude of this effect depended on the changes in intracellular cAMP level through stages of differentiation, suggesting that the cAMP-protein kinase A system may be useful as a target for clinical application of vitamin D analogs by improving the sensitivity of leukemic cells to 1,25(OH)2D3.

Abstract
The level of anxiety was examined before treatment by means of the Manifest Anxiety Scale (MAS) in 41 patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck. They received 5 days of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with cisplatin (CDDP) and 5-fluorouracil (5FU). Granisetron (KYT) was administered daily from day 1 to day 5. Nausea, vomiting, appetite, and well-being were assessed during and after chemotherapy. The relation between the effects of KYT and anxiety was studied. Seventeen patients were proven to have anxiety and were compared with the other 24 patients. In patients with anxiety, the percentage well-being was significantly lower on days 1 and 2 (P=0.008, 0.001). The rate of freedom from nausea was significantly lower from day 4 to day 9 for anxiety patients (P=0.010-0.050). The percentage of anxiety patients without loss of appetite was significantly lower from day 6 to 9 (p=0.001-0.020). The rate of freedom from vomiting was significantly lower on days 4, 5 and 7 for anxiety patients (P=0.024, 0.024, 0.014). The results indicate that the effect of KYT was significantly lower from day 3 to day 7 for anxiety patients (P=0.008-0.045). The anxiety group had significantly poorer well-being at the beginning of chemotherapy, and were not responsive to KYT in the delayed phase. Our results prove that anxiety patients show delayed emesis, and the administration of KYT is considered insufficient. It may be important to co-administer a tranquilizer to any patient who exhibit anxiety as defined by the MAS, in order to reduce delayed emesis.

Abstract
Cation recognition of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of helical peptides having a crown ether unit was investigated by the impedance spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry. Lipo-(Ala-Aib)8-Ala-Cr and Boc-Glu(Cr)-(Ala-Aib)8-Lipoa (Lipo, Lipoa, and Cr represent lipoic acid, lipoamide, and amidobenzo-18-crown-6, respectively) were synthesized and the helix SAMs were prepared. The peptides having a crown ether unit formed SAMs oriented nearly vertically to the substrate. The capacitance of the Lipo-(Ala-Aib)(8)-Ala-Cr SAM changed specifically with the addition of cations, and the binding constants of the SAM were larger than those of the crown ether in aqueous solution because of a large dipole moment of the helical peptide. In the case of the Boc-Glu(Cr)-(Ala-Aib)8-Lipoa SAM, the cation binding to the SAM showed a drastic decrease in the peak current of the cyclic voltammetry around 10(-5)M of K+ ion. In either capacitance measurement or cyclic voltammetry, the helical peptide SAM played an important role in the sensitive response to cations.

Abstract
The relationship between abnormal cell proliferation and aberrant control of hormonal secretion is a fundamental and poorly understood issue in endocrine cell neoplasia. Transgenic mice with parathyroid-targeted overexpression of the cyclin D1 oncogene, modeling a gene rearrangement found in human tumors, were created to determine whether a primary defect in this cell-cycle regulator can cause an abnormal relationship between serum calcium and parathyroid hormone response, as is typical of human primary hyperparathyroidism. We also sought to develop an animal model of hyperparathyroidism and to examine directly cyclin D1's role in parathyroid tumorigenesis. Parathyroid hormone gene regulatory region--cyclin D1 (PTH--cyclin D1) mice not only developed abnormal parathyroid cell proliferation, but also developed chronic biochemical hyperparathyroidism with characteristic abnormalities in bone and, notably, a shift in the relationship between serum calcium and PTH. Thus, this animal model of human primary hyperparathyroidism provides direct experimental evidence that overexpression of the cyclin D1 oncogene can drive excessive parathyroid cell proliferation and that this proliferative defect need not occur solely as a downstream consequence of a defect in parathyroid hormone secretory control by serum calcium, as had been hypothesized. Instead, primary deregulation of cell-growth pathways can cause both the hypercellularity and abnormal control of hormonal secretion that are almost inevitably linked together in this common disorder.

Abstract
Cell gene expression is affected by both the kind and mode of growth factor stimulation (diffusive vs. non-diffusive). Epidermal growth factor (EGF) was pattern-immobilized on a polystyrene plate. Although the growth of the rat phaeochromocytoma cell line PC12 is stimulated by diffusible EGF, and differentiation is stimulated by diffusible nerve growth factor (NGF), immobilized (non-diffusible) EGF stimulated PC12 differentiation. The immobilized EGF caused a long-lasting stimulation of the intracellular signal protein mitogen-associated protein MAP kinase (MAPK, also known as ERK) and p38 (a subfamily of the MAPK superfamily) in cells, as did diffusible NGF. The switching between growth stimulation and differentiation is considered to be due to the duration of the stimulus. The function of the biosignal conjugate was regulated using conjugation methodology.

Abstract
The irradiation effects of oxygen on polysulfone have been investigated at energies of 20 keV, 150 keV and 2 MeV. The strong improvement of endothelial cell adhesion and proliferation is found on ion irradiated polysulfone at 20 keV. Such improvement is declined with increasing ion energy. The changes of surface color and free energy are strongly dependent on ion energy and dose. The formation of amorphous carbon phase is demonstrated by Raman spectroscopy and its degree is correspondent to the color changes observed. The formations of hydroxyl and carboxyl groups are confirmed by the attenuated total reflectance (ATR) FTIR spectroscopy. The depletions of heteroatoms are conjectured by detail analysis of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Since no single one of these changes can be related directly to the improved adhesion and proliferation of endothelial cells on irradiated surface, we argue that the distribution of functional groups is crucial in promoting the adhesion of endothelial cells. Although the distribution cannot directly be detected at present, the irradiation effects were related to the results of TRIM simulation. The surface changes can be controlled by adjusting the size energy and dose of irradiating ion for the optimum morphology to cell adhesion.

Abstract
The molecular pathway of autonomous growth of the parathyroid glands in uremic patients is poorly understood. Loss of heterozygosity at the recently identified multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) gene locus on chromosome 11q13 has been found in a subset of parathyroid glands from patients with refractory hyperparathyroidism. To clarify the role of the MEN1 gene in parathyroid tumorigenesis, we analyzed 81 parathyroid glands from 22 Japanese uremic patients for allelic loss on chromosomal arm 11q13 DNA using 3 flanking markers (PYGM, D11S4946, and D11S449) and for mutations of the MEN1-coding exons by PCR-based single strand conformation polymorphism analysis and sequencing. Allelic loss on 11q13 was observed in 6 glands (7%), and 1 of 6 demonstrated a previously unrecognized somatic frameshift deletion (331delG) of the MEN1 gene. This mutation would probably result in a nonfunctional menin protein, consistent with a tumor suppressor mechanism. Clinical and pathological characteristics of hyperparathyroidism were unrelated to the presence or absence of loss of heterozygosity on 11q13 and MEN1 gene mutations. These observations indicate that somatic inactivation of the MEN1 gene contributes to the pathogenesis of uremia-associated parathyroid tumors, but its role in this disease appears to be very limited.
