Abstract
PURPOSE Cancer treatments exert vascular toxic effects that can lead to the development of cardiovascular disease. Exercise training has the potential to prevent or reduce cancer treatment-induced damage to vascular structure and function. This systematic review with meta-analyses aimed to determine the isolated effects of exercise training on vascular outcomes in people with cancer. METHODS Seven electronic databases were searched on 20 September 2021 to identify randomised controlled trials, quasi-randomised trials, pilot and cohort studies. Included studies implemented a structured exercise intervention and assessed vascular structure and/or function in people during or following cancer treatment. Meta-analyses examined the effects of exercise training on endothelial function (via brachial artery flow-mediated dilation) and arterial stiffness (via pulse wave velocity). Methodological quality was assessed using the Cochrane Quality Assessment tool and modified Newcastle-Ottawa Quality Appraisal tool. Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluations framework was used to assess the certainty of evidence. RESULTS Ten studies (discussed across 11 articles) met the inclusion criteria. Methodological quality of the included studies was moderate (71% average). Exercise improved vascular function when compared to control (standardised mean difference = 0.34, 95% CI (0.01, 0.67); p = 0.044: studies = 5, participants = 171), but not pulse wave velocity (standardised mean difference = - 0.64, 95% CI (- 1.29, 0.02); p = 0.056: studies = 4, participants = 333). The certainty of evidence was moderate for flow-mediated dilation and low for pulse wave velocity. CONCLUSIONS Compared to usual care, exercise training significantly improves flow-mediated dilation (endothelial function) but not pulse wave analysis, in people treated for cancer. IMPLICATIONS FOR CANCER SURVIVORS Exercise may improve vascular health in individuals during and following cancer treatment.

Abstract
AIMS As cell-adapted foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) with H56R mutation in VP3 has reduced thermostability, this study aimed to investigate the effect of thermostabilizers on cell-adapted FMDV for vaccine production. METHODS AND RESULTS We examined the effect of 3% sucrose, 10% (or 25%) glycerol or 10% FBS on cell-adapted FMDV O/SKR/JC/2014, containing H56R mutation in VP3, as vaccine seed virus at -80, 4, 25 or 37°C for 2, 4 or 7 days. The stabilizing effect of 3% sucrose on O/SKR/JC/2014 was observed at 25, 37°C, and after repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Additionally, we tested the effect of 3% sucrose on the growth of FMDV or cells and did not observe any decrease in either viral growth or cell viability. CONCLUSIONS Our study showed the protective effect of 3% sucrose on FMDV infectivity at various temperatures; this virus stock in 3% sucrose could be used for infecting cells without the removal of sucrose. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY We suggest that 3% sucrose-containing medium could be beneficial for the stable storage and transport of cell-adapted FMDV.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Arterial spin-labeling with multiple postlabeling delays can correct transit times. We tried to evaluate CBF in neonates and infants using multidelay arterial spin-labeling. MATERIALS AND METHODS Multidelay arterial spin-labeling was applied to 13 preterm neonates (mean postmenstrual age, 34.9 weeks), 13 term-equivalent-age neonates (mean postmenstrual age, 39.2 weeks), and 6 infants (mean postmenstrual age, 57.8 weeks). Transit time-corrected CBF in the caudate, thalamus, frontal GM, occipital GM, frontal WM, and occipital WM was measured, and relative CBF compared with the whole-brain CBF was calculated. Inter- and intragroup comparisons were performed among the 3 age groups. A correlation and nonlinear regression analysis were performed between postmenstrual age and CBF. RESULTS Intergroup comparisons showed significantly higher whole-brain CBF in infants (38.3 mL/100 g/min) compared with preterm (15.5 mL/100 g/min) and term-equivalent-age (18.3 mL/100 g/min) neonates (P < .001). In the intragroup comparison, all 3 groups showed significantly higher relative CBF values in the occipital WM (63.6%-90.3%) compared with the frontal WM (46.3%-73.9%). In term-equivalent-age neonates, the occipital GM (120.8%) had significantly higher relative CBF values than the frontal GM (103.5%). There was a significant negative correlation between postmenstrual age and the relative CBF of the thalamus (r = - 0.449, P = .010). There were significant positive relationships between postmenstrual age and the relative CBF of the frontal WM (R 2 = 0.298, P = .001) and occipital WM (R 2 = 0.452, P < .001). CONCLUSIONS Multidelay arterial spin-labeling with transit time-corrected CBF showed developmental changes and regional differences of CBF in neonates and infants.

Abstract
BACKGROUND One of recent interesting hypotheses of transient global amnesia (TGA) pathophysiology is the preexisting vulnerability of the memory network in patients with TGA. AIM OF THE STUDY To verify the hypothesis that patients with recurrent amnestic attacks may have more disrupted structural connectivity than patients of a single TGA event, we compared the brain imaging of patients with repeated episodes of TGA with those who experienced a single attack. METHODS Seven patients who were having recurrent TGA and 14 age- and sex-matched control subjects who had only a single episode of TGA participated in the study. Diffusion tensor images from both groups were assessed and analyzed using tract-based spatial statistics. RESULTS The fractional anisotropy and mean diffusivity values were not reduced in any lesion within the memory pathway of recurrent patient group when compared with those of single event group. CONCLUSION No disruptions in the structural connectivity of the memory pathway were observed in patients with recurrent TGA attacks, refuting the hypothesis that recurrent TGA patients present predisposing weakness of the memory network. The stability of structural connectivity suggests that repeated hippocampal lesions associated with TGA do not affect the microstructure of the brain.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Manual wheelchair users report a high prevalence of shoulder pain. Growing evidence shows that variability in forces applied to biological tissue is related to musculoskeletal pain. The purpose of this study was to examine the variability of forces acting on the shoulder during wheelchair propulsion as a function of shoulder pain. METHODS Twenty-four manual wheelchair users (13 with pain, 11 without pain) participated in the investigation. Kinetic and kinematic data of wheelchair propulsion were recorded for 3 min maintaining a constant speed at three distinct propulsion speeds (fast speed of 1.1 m/s, a self-selected speed, and a slow speed of 0.7 m/s). Peak resultant shoulder forces in the push phase were calculated using inverse dynamics. Within individual variability was quantified as the coefficient of variation of cycle to cycle peak resultant forces. FINDINGS There was no difference in mean peak shoulder resultant force between groups. The pain group had significantly smaller variability of peak resultant force than the no pain group (P<0.01, η²=0.18). INTERPRETATION The observations raise the possibility that propulsion variability could be a novel marker of upper limb pain in manual wheelchair users.

Abstract
Mucosally adherent Escherichia coli is frequently observed in intestinal surface of patients with colorectal cancer, but rarely in healthy control. Particularly, enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) is known to be closely associated with colorectal carcinogenesis in human. In this study, one consequence of EPEC infection in human intestinal cancer cells was induction of macrophage inhibitory cytokine 1 (MIC-1), which is a multifunctional cytokine with biological activities involved in cancer cell growth, differentiation and migration. The present investigation assessed the involvement of MIC-1 protein in EPEC infection-mediated cancer cell survival. The challenge with EPEC induced cancer cell detachment via cytoskeleton rearrangement, which was positively associated with induced MIC-1 expression. Moreover, MIC-1 also mediated RhoA GTPase-linked survival of the detached cancer cells. Blocking of MIC-1 or RhoA activity increased cellular apoptosis of the detached cancer cells. In terms of signaling pathway, MIC-1 triggered transforming growth factorβ-activated kinase 1 (TAK1), which enhanced expression of RhoA GTPase. We conclude that EPEC enhances MIC-1 gene expression in the human intestinal cancer cells, which can be associated with enhanced tumor cell resistance to anchorage-dependent tumor cell death via enhanced TAK1 and RhoA GTPase.

Abstract
TGF-β is a mediator of lung fibrosis and regulates the alveolar epithelial type II cell phenotype. TGF-β can induce epithelial mesenchymal transition of idiopathic pulmonary disease and cancer metastasis. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma co-activator 1-alpha (PGC-1 α) is a key metabolic regulator that stimulates mitochondrial biogenesis and promotes remodeling of muscle tissue to oxidative fiber-type composition. Here, we report that the induction of TGF-β decreased mRNA expression of PGC-1α, and PGC-1 target genes, such as the transcription factors NRF-2, ERR-α, and PPAR-γ in lung epithelial A549 cells. In addition, TGF-β led to the reduction of super oxide dismutase 2 (anti-oxidant enzyme), cytochrome C (electron transport chain in mitochondria), and MCAD (a mitochondrial β-oxidant enzyme) in A549 cells. Together, our results suggest that TGF-β may suppress the transcriptional activity of the genes related to mitochondrial biogenesis or function. This mechanism may provide a novel insight into the understanding of fibrosis disease.

Abstract
The prognosis of biliary tract cancer is still poor. Although a number of clinical studies have suggested a role for radiation therapy in advanced biliary tract cancer, its value remains controversial. Moreover, the intrinsic radiosensitivity of bile duct cancer cell lines has not been described, and the molecular basis for the response of these tumors to ionizing radiation is poorly understood. The present study was designed to examine the intrinsic radiation sensitivity of human biliary tract cancer cells and its relationship to p53 status. Radiation response expressed by the parameters n, D-0, D-10, alpha, beta, (D) over bar (mean inactivation dose), and SF, of seven cell lines derived from gallbladder and bile duct cancers was determined. The results suggest that biliary tract cancer cell lines as a group are relatively radioresistant. The mean X-ray survival parameters for these seven cancer cell lines were D-0=2.13+/-0.29 Gy, D-10=5.73+/-0.59 Gy, (D) over bar=2.76+/-0.25 Gy, alpha=0.25+/-0.03, and SF2=0.54+/-0.05. One of the seven lines was more radiosensitive than the others (D-0=0.77+/-0.02 Gy, D-10=2.95+/-0.06 Gy, (D) over bar=1.57 Gy, alpha=0.35, SF2=0.35+/-0.03). Five of six lines examined expressed mutant p53 including the radiosensitive line; one radioresistant line expressed wild-type p53. Thus, although loss of wild-type p53 expression occurred frequently in these biliary cancer cell lines, radiosensitivity did not correlate with p53 status. In view of the intrinsic radioresistance of this type of tumor cell coupled with the poor tolerance of surrounding normal tissues, maximal surgical debulking and intraoperative radiation therapy may contribute to increased local control over resection and/or conventional fractionated radiotherapy.

Abstract
Phosphatase and actin regulators (Phactrs) are a novel family of proteins expressed in the brain, and they exhibit both strong modulatory activity of protein phosphatase 1 and actin-binding activity. Phactrs are comprised of four family members (Phactr1-4), but their detailed expression patterns during embryonic and postnatal development are not well understood. We found that these family members exhibit different spatiotemporal mRNA expression patterns. Phactr4 mRNA was found in neural stem cells in the developing and adult brains, whereas Phactr1 and 3 appeared to be expressed in post-mitotic neurons. Following traumatic brain injury which promotes neurogenesis in the neurogenic region and gliogenesis in the injury penumbra, the mRNA expression of phactr2 and 4 was progressively increased in the injury penumbra, and phactr4 mRNA and protein induction was observed in reactive astrocytes. These differential expression patterns of phactrs imply specific functions for each protein during development, and the importance of Phactr4 in the reactive gliosis following brain injury.

Abstract
8057 Background: Statins reduce not only serum cholesterol levels but also mevalonate synthesis by inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase. Mevalonate is a precursor of several cellular major products including dolichol, geranylpyrophosphate (GPP) and farnesyl-pyrophosphate (FPP). Dolichol has a stimulatory effect on DNA synthesis and is linked to several tumor cell proteins. GPP and FPP cause isoprenylation of Ras and Rho those regulate signal transduction of several membrane receptors crucial for cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis, which result in resistance to gefitinib. Thus depletion of mevalonate metabolites may enhance gefitinib activity in NSCLC. This study compared gefitinib alone with gefitinib plus simvastatin in patients with recurrent NSCLC after at least one chemotherapy. Methods: Between May 2006 and September 2008, 107 patients (51% male, 74% adenocarcinoma, 50% never-smoker, 54% more than two prior regimens) were randomly assigned to gefitinib alone (250 mg/d orally, n=53) or gefitinib plus simvastatin (250mg/d and 40 mg/d orally, respectively, n=54). A cycle was considered as 4 weeks of treatment. Therapy was continued until disease progression or intolerable toxicities. The primary end point was to assess response rate. Secondary end points included time to progression and survival. Median follow-up was 10.1 months. Results: Efficacy was similar for gefitinib and gefitinib plus simvastatin groups. Objective tumor response rates (RR) were 31.5% (95% CI, 19.1 to 43.9) and 32.1% (95% CI, 19.5 to 44.7); median PFS were 1.9 and 2.0 months; and median OS were 9.5 and 12.7 months, respectively. In subgroup analysis, gefitinib plus simvastatin showed a trend for higher RR than gefitinib alone in non-adenocarcinoma group (38.5% vs. 7.7%, p=0.08). Adverse events at both arms were generally mild (grade 1 or 2) and consisted mainly of skin reactions. Conclusions: Gefitinib combined with simvastatin did not improved efficacy compared to gefitinib alone in this unselected patient population, but showed a trend for higher efficacy in non-adenocarcinoma patients. Although it is preliminary, gefitinib combined with simvastatin showed slightly increased OS. Updated survival data will be presented. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
e15521 Background: Little is known about data on subsequent chemotherapy (CTx) following 1st-line CTx in stage IV gastric cancer. The purpose of this study was to analyze the natural history of stage IV gastric cancer with sequential CTx Methods: A total of 532 patients (pts) with unresectable gastric adenocarcinoma were studied. They were managed with a strategy of maximal administration of CTx only if pts’ general conditions were allowed. Response evaluation was performed by RECIST every 2 cycles. Response of unmeasurable lesions was dichotomized only into stable disease or progressive disease. Results: When pts were divided into CTx group (460 of 532, 87%) and best supportive care group (BSC; 72 of 532, 13%) resulting from poor performance/pt's refusal/comorbidity (31/23/18), the former had younger age (p = 0.046), better performance (p < 0.001), and less advanced metastatic sites (p = 0.001) than the latter. Median overall survivals from diagnosis of unresectable cancer were 12.0/13.3/2.5 months for overall/CTx/BSC, respectively. 87%/47%/23% of the whole pts received 1st/2nd/3rd-line CTx, respectively. Median number of regimens delivered was 2. Maximally 5th-line CTx was given to 15 pts (3%). Response and disease control rates were 21.7%/12.5%/11.8% and 79.4%/56.3%/49.4% for 1st/2nd/3rd lines, respectively. Median progression-free and overall survivals from CTx were 5.5/3.4/2.5 months and 12.1/7.9/5.5 months for 1st/2nd/3rd lines, respectively. The most common cause of discontinuation of CTx was disease progression (68%/74%/70%) followed by pt's refusal (22%/13%/12%) for 1st/2nd/3rd lines, respectively. Prognosticators were performance status, histology, metastatic site, and CTx before 1st or 2nd line. Conclusions: When pts with unresectable gastric cancer were managed with a strategy of maximal administration of CTx, a considerable number of pts could receive 2nd or 3rd line CTx, showing modest activity. Performance status and metastatic site were consistent prognosticators even if lines changed. Our data on the natural history of stage IV gastric cancer with sequential CTx may suggest that clinical trials can be performed in a 2nd or 3rd line setting as well. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
Ipriflavone, a synthetic flavonoid for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis, has been reported to be extensively metabolized in man to seven metabolites (M1-M7). This study was performed to characterize the human liver cytochrome P450s (CYP) responsible for the metabolism of ipriflavone. Hydroxylation at the beta-ring to M3, O-dealkylation to M1 and oxidation at isopropyl group to M4 and M5 are major pathways for ipriflavone metabolism in three different human liver microsome preparations. The specific CYPs responsible for ipriflavone oxidation to the active metabolites, M1, M3, M4 and M5 were identified using a combination of correlation analysis, immuno-inhibition, chemical inhibition in human liver microsomes and metabolism by expressed recombinant CYP enzymes. The inhibitory potencies of ipriflavone and its five metabolites, M1-M5 on seven clinically important CYPs were investigated in human liver microsomes. Our results demonstrate that CYP3A4 plays the major role in O-dealkylation of ipriflavone to M1 and CYP1A2 plays a dominant role in the formation of M3, M4 and M5. Ipriflavone and/or its five metabolites were found to inhibit potently the metabolism of CYPs 1A2, 2C8, 2C9 and 2C19 substrates.

Abstract
Macrophages, T cells, and B cells of the immune system are central targets of deoxynivalenol (DON) and other trichothecenes-mycotoxins that can be immunostimulatory or immunosuppressive depending on dose, exposure frequency and timing of functional immune assay. Notably, low dose trichothecene exposure transcriptionally and post-transcriptionally upregulates expression of cytokines, chemokines and inflammatory genes with concurrent immune stimulation, whereas high dose exposure promotes leukocyte apoptosis with concomitant immune suppression. DON and other trichothecenes, via a mechanism known as the ribotoxic stress response, bind to ribosomes and rapidly activate mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs). The latter are important transducers of downstream signaling events related to immune response and apoptosis. Using cloned macrophages, our laboratory has identified two critical upstream transducers of DON-induced MAPK activation. One transducer is double-stranded RNA-(dsRNA)-activated protein kinase (PKR), a widely-expressed serine/theonine protein kinase that can be activated by dsRNA, interferon, and other agents. The second transducer is hematopoetic cell kinase (Hck), a non-receptor associated Src family kinase. Inhibitors and gene silencing studies have revealed that Hck and PKR play roles in DON induced gene expression and apoptosis. Future studies should focus on the molecular linkages between these kinases and trichothecene toxicity.

Abstract
We report a case of advanced esophageal cancer, which was treated by chemoradiotherapy combined with surgical treatment. Moreover, 14 advanced esophageal cancer patients treated by chemoradiotherapy are discussed. The chemoradiotherapy showed beneficial control of the tumor; however, it sometimes leads to esophageal stenosis and ulcer. We conclude that additional salvage surgery is needed for such complications.

Abstract
Despite the frequent clinical use of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) in combination with radiotherapy for patients with biliary tract cancers, data remain scarce concerning specifically the influence of 5-FU on the sensitivity of these cancer cells to radiation. The present study was carried out to evaluate the effects of concomitant treatment with 5-FU on radiation-induced cell killing in two established human biliary tract cancer cell lines (Mz-ChA-2 and SK-ChA-1 cells). These lines were chosen as we have previously shown that SK-ChA-1 cells are significantly more resistant to both radiation and 5-FU than Mz-ChA-2 cells. Clonogenic survival was employed as the end-point for cell killing. Administration of 5-FU at LD50 doses to each cell line significantly enhanced radiation-induced cell killing. The enhancement ratio (ER) was obtained by dividing the radiation dose required to decrease the cell survival fraction to 37% (D0) by the dose to decrease cell survival to the same level when the cells were also treated with 5-FU. The ER in each of the cell lines was greater when they were incubated with 5-FU after radiation rather than prior to radiation. Longer exposure times with 5-FU resulted in enhanced radiation killing. The ER was significantly higher in the radioresistant cell line than in the radiosensitive line. These findings suggest that therapy with radiation and 5-FU may be of value as components of multidisciplinary treatment for biliary tract cancer. Protracted low dose exposure to 5-FU may prove to be most efficacious in enhancing the effects of radiation therapy.

Abstract
Expression of critical enzymes in fatty acid and fat biosynthesis is tightly controlled by nutritional and hormonal stimuli. The expression of fatty acid synthase, which catalyzes all reactions for synthesis of palmitate from acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA, and of mitochondrial glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase, which catalyzes the first acylation step in glycerophospholipid synthesis, is decreased to an undetectable level during fasting. Food intake, especially a high carbohydrate, fat-free diet after fasting, causes a dramatic increase in the transcription of these genes. Insulin secretion is increased during feeding and has a positive effect on expression. By using adipocytes in culture and transgenic mice that express the reporter gene driven by the fatty acid synthase promoter, the cis-acting sequence that mediates insulin regulation of the fatty acid synthase promoter was defined. Upstream stimulatory factors (USF) that bind to the -65 E-box are required for insulin-mediated transcriptional activation of the fatty acid symthase gene. Sterol regulatory element binding protein (SREBP)-1 may be also involved in induction of these genes during feeding. Using specific inhibitors and expressing various signaling molecules, we found that insulin regulation of the fatty acid synthase promoter is mediated by the phosphatidylinositol (PI)3-kinase signaling pathway and that protein kinase B/akt is a downstream effector.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To clarify the clinical significance of increased signal intensities on T1 weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) we performed a large-scale epidemiological study on asymptomatic manganese (Mn)-exposed workers with its focus on MRI. METHODS We randomly selected 121 male workers out of a total of 750 workers including Mn-exposed, non-exposed manual, and non-exposed clerical workers in the factories. We studied environmental and biological monitoring, neurological examination, and MRI. RESULTS The proportion of workers with increased signal intensities among the exposed, the non-exposed manual workers, and the non-exposed clerical workers was 46.1%, 18.8%, and 0%, respectively. Especially, 73.5% of the welders showed increased signal intensities. In no subject, were clinical signs of manganism observed. The pallidal index correlated with blood Mn concentration. CONCLUSION Increase in signal intensities on the T1-weighted image reflect recent exposure to Mn, but not necessarily manganism. At which increase of signal intensity, the progression of manganism from Mn exposure occurs, remains to be solved.

Abstract
2-Bromopropane and hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs), whose toxicity has scarcely been known, have recently been introduced as main substitutes for chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). A major corporation in Korea replaced CFCs with 2-bromopropane and this actually led 23 Korean workers to be the world's first 2-bromopropane intoxication victims. Out of 25 female workers in the tactile switch assembling section, 17 (68%) were diagnosed as having ovarian failure. Two affected female workers showed marked pancytopenia with markedly hypoplastic marrow. In the same section, two out of eight male workers showed azoospermia and four some degree of oligospermia. The above toxicity of 2-bromopropane was reproduced in experimental animal studies. Recently, health effects of HCFC 123, including toxic hepatitis, have been reported by several authors. The principle of replacement of toxic substances with non-toxic or less toxic chemicals is important in risk management, but substances still poorly known should not be confused with non-toxic or less toxic substances. Measures aimed at reducing exposure to chemicals with known toxicity rather than using new unknown alternatives may be a rational and effective approach to risk management.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate exposure to mixed solvents containing ethylene glycol monoethyl ether acetate (EGEEA) in shipyard painters, to determine if EGEEA is toxic to the bone marrow. METHODS An industrial hygiene survey was performed to identify exposure to EGEEA of two groups of shipyard painters, a low exposure group (n = 30) and a high exposure group (n = 27). Urinary ethoxyacetic acid and methyl hippuric acid as well as haemoglobin, packed cell volume, red cell indices, total and differential white blood cell counts (WBCs), and platelet count for the shipyard painters and the control subjects were measured. RESULTS The mean (range) exposure concentration (ppm) to EGEEA in the high and low exposure groups were 3.03 (not detectable to 18.27), 1.76 (not detectable to 8.12), respectively. The concentrations of methyl hippuric acid and ethoxyacetic acid in the high exposure group were significantly higher than those in the control group. The mean WBCs in the high exposure group were significantly lower than in the control group, and a significant proportion, six (11%) of the 57 painters, were leucopenic; none of the controls were affected. CONCLUSION The high rate of possible haematological effects among shipyard painters and a hygienic evaluation of their working environment in the present study suggests that EGEEA might be toxic to bone marrow.

Abstract
It is difficult to distinguish manganism from idiopathic parkinsonism by clinical signs only. Case history and examination: A 48-year-old welder for over 10 years complained of masked face, right side (arm and leg) resting tremor, and bradykinesia for over one year. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings showed symmetrical high signal intensities in the globus pallidus on T1 weighted image. These intensities disappeared almost completely six months after cessation of exposure. 18F-6-fluorodopa (18F-dopa) positron emission tomography (PET) findings showed reduced 18F-dopa uptake in the left putamen, findings which appear in idiopathic parkinsonism. A PET study is necessary to distinguish manganism from idiopathic parkinsonism, especially in a working environment with elevated Mn concentrations, such as welding.

Abstract
Data concerning the cellular sensitivity of human biliary tract cancer cell lines to 5-FU are scarce. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the cellular sensitivity of Mz-ChA-2 (derived from gall bladder cancer) and SK-ChA-1 (derived from bile duct cancer) to 5-FU. The clonogenic capacity of these lines after pulse (1 h) or continuous (168 h) administration of various 5-FU concentrations (0.1-100 microg/ml) was evaluated in exponentially growing cells as well as in those that had reached the plateau phase. In both cell lines, exponentially growing cells were 1.8-times more susceptible to 5-FU than those in plateau phase. However, when cells in the same growth phase were compared, Mz-ChA-2 cells were 10 times more sensitive to the drug than SK-ChA-1 cells. Regardless of the growth phase or cell line, increasing the duration of exposure to 5-FU decreased the proportion of surviving cells. Even at a non-cytocidal dosage, exposing the cells for three doubling times markedly decreased the number of viable cells remaining after treatment.

Abstract
We are at a time when reform in the special medical examination program in keeping with the changing times is desperately needed because the common perception of workers, employers, and medical examination facilities is "special medical examination is merely ritualistic and unproductive." Therefore, we have tried to set forth the basic structure for reforming the special medical examination program by taking a close look at the management status of the current program and analyzing its problems. The specifics of the special medical examination program reform proposal consist of three parts such as the types, health evaluation based on occupational medicine, and the interval, subject selection, items and procedure. Pre-placement medical examination and non-periodic medical examinations-as-necessary are introduced newly. Health evaluation based on occupational medicine consists of classification of health status, evaluation of work suitability, and post-examination measure. Details regarding the medical examination interval, subject selection, items and procedure were changed.

Abstract
Two phage clones, lambda hgACL21 and lambda hgACL28, harboring the 5' flanking region of human ATP-citrate lyase (ACL) gene were identified by screening about 1.5 X 10(6) recombinant plaques from the lambdaEMBL3-human placental genomic DNA library. The 5' flanking region of ACL had the CAAT box on -92 bp from the transcription initiation site (+1), however, the TATA box was not found. The primer extension and rapid amplification of cDNA end showed that mRNA is transcribed at a thymine extending 12 bp upstream of the reported cDNA end. The sequences of 5' flanking region in 1.5 kb size of human ACL showed 60% homology with those of rat; however, no homology was found in the exon 1 and intron 1 region. Several consensus sequences, including four Sp1 binding sites, were found in the 5' flanking region of this gene. The promoter activity was assayed by transfecting the 3' or 5' deletion clones of ACL-chloramphenicol acetyl transferase (CAT) plasmid into PLC/PRF5 cells. The clone that contains the part of the first intron sequences from -659 to +440 bp showed the highest CAT activity in the transient transfection assay. High promoter activities were maintained until the transcription initiation site was removed. It is suggested that the sequences from -213 to +12 which contain three Sp1-binding sequences, CAAT box, and the transcription initiation site were necessary as a mean of for exerting the basal promoter activity of ACL gene.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to describe hematopoietic and reproductive hazards of Korean electronic workers exposed to solvents containing 2-bromopropane. METHODS Detailed medical and occupational histories were taken and thorough physical examinations with clinical laboratory tests were done for 33 workers (8 men and 25 women). Previous and present exposure was investigated in detail by industrial hygienists. RESULTS Of the 25 female workers, 16 were shown to have secondary amenorrhea with high follicle-stimulating hormone levels, normal prolactin levels, and hot flashes. A total of eight workers with amenorrhea concurrently showed findings of pancytopenia. Among eight male workers, two showed azoospermia and another four showed some degree of oligospermia (normal > 20 million. ml-1) or reduced sperm motility (normal > 50%). The bone marrow effects and the testis or ovarian failure was shown to be the main health hazards in this workplace. Except for the cleaning solution containing 97.4% 2-bromopropane, no other known physical or chemical agents could be identified as responsible for the gonadal and bone marrow effects, including ionizing radiation, lead, ethylene glycol ether and its acetates, benzene, and dibromochloropropane. CONCLUSIONS No previous studies have reported human toxicity for 2-bromopropane, but the results of this study lead to the tentative conclusion that the causal agent for the gonadal and bone marrow effects among the workers might be 2-bromopropane.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate outcomes and identify prognostic factors in allogeneic bone marrow transplantation in patients with end-stage lymphoma. PATIENTS AND METHODS Data were retrospectively analyzed of 64 patients (42 men and 22 women) 18 to 48 years of age with recurrent or refractory lymphoma who underwent allogeneic bone marrow transplantation from matched sibling donors (or in 1 case from a one antigen-mismatched relative) between May 1981 and July 1994. RESULTS Twelve patients survived free of disease. They were 8 of 15 with low-grade lymphoma (disease-free survival at 2 years 59% +/- 13%); 3 of 25 with lymphoblastic lymphoma (disease-free survival 17% +/- 8%); and 1 of 10 with diffuse small non-cleaved cell lymphoma (disease-free (10% +/- 9%). Survival and disease-free survival of patients with low-grade lymphoma were significantly superior compared to any other subgroup of patients (P <0.01). Only 2 patients with low-grade lymphoma had disease progression (9% +/- 9% actuarial risk at 2 years) as opposed to 5 of 15 with intermediate-grade lymphoma (39% +/- 14%), 9 of 25 with lymphoblastic lymphoma (28% +/- 9%), and 8 of 10 (80% +/- 13%) with diffuse small non-cleaved lymphoma. The actuarial risk for disease progression was significantly lower for patients with low-grade lymphoma than for any other histologic subgroup (P <0.02). It was significantly higher for those with diffuse small non-cleaved cell lymphoma than for other histologic subgroups (P < or = 0.003). CONCLUSIONS Allogeneic bone marrow transplantation is an effective procedure in patients with refractory low-grade lymphoma. It results in long-term remissions and should be considered in younger patients with recurrent disease who have a matched sibling donor. The late recurrence in 1 patient indicates the necessity of continued follow-up. A small fraction of patients with end-stage intermediate- and high-grade lymphoma can obtain prolonged disease-free survival, but recurrence and regimen-related toxicity remain major problems. The results could be improved by the development of conditioning regimens with less toxicity and by the use of bone marrow transplantation earlier in the course of the disease.

Abstract
We studied 14 adult patients presenting with fever and cytopenia of the peripheral blood and histiocytic hyperplasia with hemophagocytosis (HHH) in the bone marrow regarding an association of cytomegalovirus (CMV) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) by using in situ hybridization (ISH) and also evaluated the clinical and laboratory findings according to the encountered organisms. ISH using a CMV RNA probe demonstrated infected cells in 6 out of 14 cases (43%), and ISH using an EBV EBER RNA probe demonstrated infected nuclei in 5 out of the same 14 cases (36%) of HHH. No cases showed a positive reaction with both probes. Three cases showed a negative reaction with both probes. The mean age of all patients was 29 years; and that of the CMV-positive patients was 27 years and that of the EBV-positive patients was 36 years. Organomegaly was found in 3 out of 6 CMV-positive patients (1 hepatomegaly, 1 splenomegaly, 1 hepatosplenomegaly), and 4 out of 5 EBV-positive patients (lymphadenopathy in all 4 cases, hepatosplenomegaly in 2 cases). One of the CMV-positive case had acute myeloblastic leukemia, and 2 EBV-positive cases had underlying malignancy (1 Hodgkin's disease, 1 non-Hodgkin's lymphoma). Seven out of the 14 HHH cases (50%) died within several months after diagnosis. Nucleic acid hybridization methods can be used for the routine examination of the association of CMV or EBV.

Abstract
To study the molecular basis of tissue-specific and hormonally regulated expression of the fatty acid synthase (FAS) gene in vivo, we generated lines of transgenic mice carrying 2.1 kilobases of the 5'-flanking region (-2100 to +67) of the rat FAS gene fused to a chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) reporter gene. This reporter gene construct was strongly expressed in tissues that normally express high levels of FAS mRNA, which include liver and white adipose tissues. In contrast, CAT reporter activity was not detected in appreciable levels in lung, heart, kidney, and muscle tissues, which do not normally show significant levels of FAS activity. The relative levels of the CAT mRNA driven by the rat FAS promoter in various tissues of the transgenic animals approximated those of the endogenous mouse FAS mRNA. We also examined the hormonal and nutritional regulation of the FAS(2.1)-CAT reporter gene in transgenic mice. CAT activity was increased in both liver and white adipose tissue when fasted animals were refed a high carbohydrate, fat-free diet. These changes in CAT activity and CAT mRNA levels occurred in parallel to the changes in endogenous mouse FAS mRNA levels. On the other hand, fasting/refeeding did not change CAT activity appreciably in other tissues, such as muscle and brown adipose tissue. Administration of dibutyryl cAMP at the start of refeeding prevented an increase in CAT activity in liver. However, the cAMP effect was tissue-specific as cAMP treatment did not bring about change in CAT activity in adipose tissue. Next, to examine the effect of insulin, we made the transgenic mice insulin-deficient by streptozotocin treatment. Insulin treatment of the streptozotocin-diabetic mice increased both the CAT activity and CAT mRNA levels driven by the rat FAS promoter in liver and white adipose tissue. These changes in CAT expression by insulin paralleled those in endogenous FAS mRNA levels. Administration of glucocorticoids increased CAT activity in all tissues examined: liver, white and brown adipose tissues, lung, heart, and spleen. Overall, the first 2.1 kilobases of the 5'-flanking region of the rat FAS gene appear to contain sequence elements necessary to confer tissue-specific and hormonally regulated expression characteristic of the endogenous FAS gene.

Abstract
Experiment 1, of a series of six experiments with the rabbit nictitating membrane response (NMR) preparation, revealed that nitrous oxide (0%, 33%, 67%) impaired acquisition of conditioned responses (CRs). Subsequent experiments indicated that nitrous oxide (N2O) had no reliable effects upon nonassociative processes (Experiment 2); impaired unconditioned response (UR) amplitude (Experiment 3); attenuated tone-conditioned stimulus (CS) intensity (Experiment 4); decremented tone-induced reflex modification of the unconditioned NMR (Experiment 5); and demonstrated no reliable evidence of behavioral tolerance (Experiment 6). It was concluded that N2O's impairment of CR acquisition was attributable to its attenuation of the intensity of tone CSs and shock USs and/or UR amplitude. These findings are consistent with the behavioral laws of conditioning: the attenuation of the intensive sensory properties of the CS and US and/or UR components of conditioning affect their ability to enter into the establishment of CS-CR connections and, therefore, the development of associative learning.

Abstract
To see if the fimbrial concentrations of Prostaglandin E (PGE) and Prostaglandin F (PGF) change in the process of ovulation, these prostaglandins were measured in the fimbriae of one group of 18 doe rabbits using the specific radioimmunoassay; 13 rabbits were bred so as to induce ovulation and 5 rabbits were not bred. The PGE and PGF in the fimbriae of the 13 bred rabbits were 105.4 +/- 18.5 pg/mg of protein and 186 +/- 26.9 pg/mg protein, respectively. In the 5 control unbred animals, the fimbrial PGE and PGF concentrations were 39.6 +/- 5.9 pg/mg protein and 111 +/- 14.7 pg/mg protein, respectively (p less than 0.05). In an additional group of 8 rabbits (2 before ovulation and 6 after ovulation), it was found that the rise in the PGE and PGF concentration association with ovulation was maximal in fimbriae harvested immediately before ovulation (8 hours-8 hours 30 postcoitally) (p less than 0.001). These findings are consistent with the hypothesis that fimbrial PGE and PGF play a role in the process of ovum retrieval in the rabbit.
