Abstract
Abstract
Background: The conventional way of patient treatment should be following guidelines. While in clinical practice, patients received treatments very often away from suggested guideline. In this report, we reviewed glioma patients received real world treatment at Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center (SYSUCC) and results of this patient series.
Methods: Total of 1215 glioma patients received surgery at SYSUCC from 2000 to 2017 were enclosed for analysis. The pathologic diagnosis of patients has followed WHO classification (initially 2007 standard, than 2016 standard).
Results: A total of 1001 newly diagnosed brain glioma patients were analyzed, including 90 cases WHO grade I, 307 grade II, 239 grade III and 365 grade IV. The median age of onset was 14 (1–75), 35 (2–69), 41 (8–82) and 50 (2–86) years old, respectively, for grade I, II, III and IV glioma patients. Tumor total resection was achieved in 567 patients (57.5%). Among all patients, 331 high-grade gliomas (54.8%) and 159 low-grade glioma (40.1%) received radiotherapy, whereas 285 high-grade gliomas (47.1%) and 80 low-grade tumors (20.2%) received chemotherapy. Among high-grade gliomas, the median OS of glioblastoma, anaplastic astrocytoma and anaplastic oligodendroglial tumors were 17.7 months (15.7–19.7 months), 33.7 months (24.0–43.4 months) and 110.6 months (43.5–177.7 months), respectively, whereas the median OS of low-grade gliomas was not reach. The 5-year survival rate of grade I, II, III and IV gliomas was 94.7%, 73.7%, 45.1% and 18.6%, respectively. Multivariate analysis identified that onset age, Karnofsky performance status, tumor location, preoperative seizure, pathological subtype, resection extent and post-surgical treatment were independent predictors of OS for patients with high-grade gliomas. Patients received post-surgical radiotherapy and (or) chemotherapy had better survival than those without adjuvant treatment (grade III: 53.3 vs. 20.6 months, p =0.012; grade IV: 22.9 vs. 12.3 months, p < 0.001). For low-grade gliomas, patients’ age, Ki-67 index, tumor subtype and resection extent were associated with clinical outcomes.
Conclusions: Glioma patients received treatments do not always following guidelines in clinical practice. Although standard care for patients may beneficial for prognosis, personalized treatment may more acceptable for patients and even resulting better outcome which should keep in mind in routine clinical practice.

Abstract
WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE Clinically validated pharmacogenomic information useful for patient selection and/or dose adjustment is included in drug labels. However, the label information may differ among countries. This commentary summarizes the pharmacogenomic information on drug labels in different countries. COMMENT We selected six drugs, namely, clopidogrel, atomoxetine, irinotecan, mercaptopurine, abacavir and carbamazepine and compared the pharmacogenomic information in the "Warning" section of these drug labels in the United States and 5 other countries/regions. WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSION The pharmacogenomic information in drug labels is not well harmonized across countries/regions, possibly due to differences in population characteristics such as relevant allele frequencies, variable genetic test availability and differences in insurance coverage. Further and periodical investigations of this issue would be useful.

Abstract
The case of a 31-year-old woman with accessory breast cancer in the left axilla is described. She had noticed a swelling in the left axilla during her three pregnancies. The preoperative diagnosis of accessory breast cancer was made on the basis of ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsy (US-FNAB) and clinical history. She was treated by wide local resection and regional lymph node dissection. Although cancer originating from accessory breast tissue has been reported very rarely, knowledge of this disorder may facilitate the correct diagnosis of axillary tumors. US-FNAB is a useful and simple technique for the tissue diagnosis of axillary tumors.

Abstract
WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE Glucocorticoid-induced diabetes mellitus (GIDM) increases the risk of diabetes mellitus (DM)-related complications but is generally difficult to detect in clinical settings. The criteria for diagnosing GIDM have not been established. Recently, medical information databases (MIDs) have been used in post-marketing surveillance (PMS) studies. We conducted a pharmacoepidemiological study to develop an algorithm for detecting GIDM using MID. METHODS We selected 1214 inpatients who were newly prescribed with a typical glucocorticoid, prednisolone, during hospitalization from 2008 to 2014 from an MID of Hamamatsu University Hospital in Japan. GIDM was screened based on fasting blood glucose (FBG) and haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels according to the current Japan Diabetes Society (JDS) DM criteria, and its predictability was evaluated by an expert's review of medical records. We investigated further candidate screening factors using receiver operating characteristics analysis. RESULTS Sixty-three inpatients were identified by the JDS DM criteria. Of these, 33 patients were definitely diagnosed as having GIDM by expert's review (positive predictive value = 52·4%). To develop a highly predictive algorithm, we compared the characteristics of inpatients diagnosed with definite GIDM and those diagnosed as non-GIDM. The maximum levels of HbA1c in patients with GIDM were significantly higher than those of patients with non-GIDM (66·9 mmol/mol vs. 58·7 mmol/mol, P < 0·001). The patients with GIDM had significantly higher relative increase in maximum level of HbA1c (RIM-HbA1c) than those with non-GIDM (0·3 vs. 0·03, P < 0·001). However, we did not observe a significant difference in those of fasting blood glucose (FBG) levels. We applied the RIM-HbA1c as a second screening factor to improve the detection of GIDM. It showed that a 13% increase in RIM-HbA1c separated patients with from patients without GIDM. WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSIONS Patients with GIDM had significantly higher RIM-HbA1c than patients with non-GIDM. There was a 13% increase in RIM-HbA1c in patients with GIDM compared to the others. Our detection algorithm for GIDM using an MID achieved high sensitivity and specificity, and was superior to one based only on the current JDS DM criteria. Our results suggest that monitoring changes in HbA1c levels is important for detecting GIDM and adds to current diagnostic criteria for type 2 DM.

Abstract
Resveratrol, a polyphenolic phytoalexin, has free-radical scavenging activity and we found that it induces chromosomal aberrations, micronuclei, and sister chromatid exchanges in vitro. We synthesized its analogue 4-hydroxy-trans-stilbene (4-OH) and found that it has the same in vitro clastogenic activities as resveratrol, suggesting that the 4' hydroxy group of resveratrol is responsible for the effect. We fed resveratrol and 4-OH to young adult ICR mice at 0, 0.2, 2, or 20 ppm in their standard powder diet for 6 months and investigated the antioxidative effects. Half of each group was given 3000 ppm potassium bromate (KBrO(3)) in water for the last week to cause oxidative damage. Body weight gain tended to increase in males at 0.2 ppm resveratrol or 4-OH, and in females at 2 ppm 4-OH. Micronucleus (MN) analysis in bone marrow erythrocytes showed that the KBrO(3) tendency to induce MN was not prevented by the dietary resveratrol or 4-OH, which themselves did not induce MN under the present conditions. In this pilot study, resveratrol and 4-OH showed no obvious effect, either beneficial or adverse, at doses that are feasible in daily life for humans.

Abstract
As functional ABCB1 haplotypes were recently reported in the promoter region of the gene, we resequenced the ABCB1 distal promoter region, along with other regions (the enhancer and proximal promoter regions, and all 28 exons), in a total of 533 Japanese subjects. Linkage disequilibrium (LD) analysis based on 92 genetic variations revealed 4 LD blocks with the same make up as previously described (Blocks -1, 1, 2 and 3), except that Block 1 was expanded to include the distal promoter region, and that a new linkage between polymorphisms -1,789G>A in the distal promoter region and IVS5 + 123A>G in intron 5 was identified. We re-assigned Block 1 haplotypes, and added novel haplotypes to the other 3 blocks. The reported promoter haplotypes were further classified into several types according to tagging variations within Block 1 coding or intronic regions. Our current data reconfirm the haplotype profiles of the other three blocks, add more detailed information on functionally-important haplotypes in Block 1 and 2 in the Japanese population, and identified differences in haplotype profiles between ethnic groups. Our updated analysis of ABCB1 haplotype blocks will assist pharmacogenetic and disease-association studies carried out using Asian subjects.

Abstract
Genetic polymorphisms of UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) are involved in individual and ethnic differences in drug metabolism. To reveal co-occurrence of the UGT1A polymorphisms, we first analyzed haplotype structures of the entire UGT1A gene complex using the polymorphisms from 196 Japanese subjects. Based on strong linkage disequilibrium between UGT1A8 and 1A10, among 1A9, 1A7, and 1A6, and between 1A3 and 1A1, the complex was divided into five blocks, Block 8/10, Block 9/6, Block 4, Block 3/1, and Block C, and the haplotypes for each block were subsequently determined/inferred. Second, using pyrosequencing or direct sequencing, additional 105 subjects were genotyped for 41 functionally tagged polymorphisms. The data from 301 subjects confirmed the robustness of block partitioning, but several linkages among the haplotypes with functional changes were found across the blocks. Thus, important haplotypes and their linkages were identified among the UGT1A gene blocks (and segments), which should be considered in pharmacogenetic studies.

Abstract
This random multistage cross-sectional population survey was undertaken to determine the prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) and impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) in subjects aged 25 years and above in India. The study was carried out in 77 centers (40 urban and 37 rural). 18363 (9008 males and 9355 females) subjects were studied. 10617 (5379 males and 5238 females) were from urban areas and 7746 (3629 males and 4117 females) from rural areas. Blood samples were taken after a fast of 10-12 h and 2 h after 75 g of oral glucose. Subjects were categorized as having IGT or DM using the World Health Organisation (WHO) (1999) criteria. The standardized prevalence rate for DM in the total Indian, urban and rural populations was 4.3, 5.9 and 2.7%, respectively. The corresponding IGT rates in the three populations was 5.2, 6.3 and 3.7%, respectively. The urban prevalence of DM and IGT was significantly greater than in the rural population (P < 0.001 in both instances). The prevalence of DM was significantly, more than that of IGT (P < 0.001) within both the rural and urban populations. Type 2 diabetes is a major health problem is India.

Abstract
This random multistage cross-sectional population survey was undertaken to determine the prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) in subjects aged 25 years and above in India. The study was carried out in 77 centres (42 urban and 35 rural) to reflect the size and heterogeneity of the Indian population. 18,363 (9008 male and 9355 female) subjects were studied. 10,617 (5379 males and 5238 females) were from urban areas and 7746 (3629 males and 4117 females) from rural areas. Blood samples were taken after a fast of 10-12 and 2 h after 75 g of oral glucose. Subjects were categorized as having impaired fasting glycemia (IFG) or DM using the 1997 ADA or having impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) or DM using the 1999 WHO criteria. The age- and gender-standardized prevalence rate for DM using the ADA criteria was 3.6% whilst that using the WHO criteria was 4.3% (P < 0.001). The respective standardized prevalence of DM, using the two criteria was, 4.7 and 5.6%, respectively (P < 0.001) in the urban Indian population and 2.0 and 2.7% (P < 0.02) in the rural Indian population. Using the WHO criteria, 581 subjects were newly diagnosed whilst the ADA criteria newly diagnosed 437 subjects. The respective numbers for the urban population were 425 and 323, and for the rural population were 146 and 114, respectively. The ADA criteria could diagnose 75.2, 76.0 and 73.0% of the subjects who had DM as per the WHO criteria. Of 739 Indian subjects who had IFG, 106 (14.3%) were diagnosed as having DM by the WHO criteria whilst 505 (68.3%) had values compatible with a diagnosis of IGT. Of the 536 urban subjects with IFG, 74 (13.8%) had DM and 350 (65.3%) had IGT using the WHO criteria. Of the 302 rural subjects with IFG, 32 (15.8%) had DM and 155 (76.3%) had IGT using the WHO criteria. 505 (49.9%) of 1012 Indian subjects with IGT as per the WHO criteria had IFG. 350 (47.7%) of 733 urban subjects and 155 (55.5%) of 279 rural subjects with IGT had values compatible with IFG as per the ADA criteria. Type 2 diabetes is a major health problem is India. The use of the ADA criteria would underestimate the prevalence of DM by not diagnosing subjects showing a poor response to a glucose challenge. This along with the discrepancies between subjects showing IGF or IGT could be a challenge to any prevention program.

Abstract
This random multistage cross sectional population survey was undertaken to determine the prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) and impaired fasting glycemia/glucose (IFG) in subjects aged 25 years and above in India. The study was carried out in 108 centers (49 urban and 59 rural) to reflect the size and heterogeneity of the Indian population. 41,270 (20,534 males and 20,736 females) subjects were studied. 21,516 (10,865 males and 10,651 females) were from urban areas and 19,754 (9669 males and 10,085 females) from rural areas. Blood samples were taken after a fast of 10-12h and the subjects were categorized as having IFG or DM using the 1997 American Diabetes Association criteria. The age and gender standardized prevalence rate for DM and IFG in the total Indian population was 3.3 and 3.6% respectively (P < 0.001). The standardized prevalence of DM and IFG in urban areas was significantly higher than that for the rural population (urban DM prevalence 4.6% versus rural DM prevalence 1.9%, P < 0.001; urban IFG prevalence 4.8% versus rural IFG prevalence 2.5%, P < 0.001). There was no statistically significant difference in the prevalence between DM (4.6%) and IFG (4.8%) in the urban population. The rural prevalence of IFG (2.5%) was significantly (P <0.001) more than the rural prevalence of DM (1.9%). Type 2 diabetes is a major health problem is India.

Abstract
The occurrence of angiomyolipoma (AML) in tissue other than the kidney is uncommon, as is multiple AML developing exclusively in organs other than the kidney. This report describes a case in which AML occurred multifocally in the liver and lung, but spared the kidney, and which might have been associated with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). A Japanese woman underwent a partial hepatectomy for a suspected malignant liver tumour at the age of 57. The tumour consisted predominantly of a trabecular arrangement of myoid cells with a sinusoidal pattern and inflammatory cell infiltration, and was diagnosed as a primary liver AML by HMB-45 immunoreactivity. Five years later, multiple nodules were found in both lungs, for which video assisted thoracic surgery was performed. The tumour showed a mixture of epithelioid cells containing HMB-45 positive material and mature lipocytes, and was subsequently diagnosed as AML. Molecular analysis of both lesions showed no allelic loss of the TSC1 and TSC2 regions. Molecular analysis of the tumours ruled out an association with TSC, and both liver and lung lesions displayed benign histological features, so that these were probably multifocal lesions of AML without TSC.

Abstract
We report the case of an omental cyst, a rare type of abdominal cystic lesion that is difficult to diagnose preoperatively. A 43-year-old man with no clinical symptoms was admitted to our hospital for investigation of an abdominal cyst detected by ultrasonography (US). We performed diagnostic examinations including US, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging. An omental cyst was diagnosed because of its position and connection to the surrounding tissues. Pathological examination of the surgical specimen revealed endothelial cells on its internal wall and colonies of lymphocytes, confirming a diagnosis of lymphangioma, which is the most common type of omental cyst.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE In order to better understand the genesis of gallbladder cancer, we investigated the metaplastic changes and the presence of endocrine cells in mucosal tissue in the tissues of 100 patients with cholecystitis and 50 patients with gallbladder cancer. METHODS All the tissue samples were submitted to Hematoxylin-eosin and Alcian blue-periodic acid-Schiff stain. To identify endocrine cells, we utilized Grimelius or Fontana-Masson stain. To detect intestinal hormones, we used streptavidin-biotin staining. If a given tissue sample presented with goblet cells or pseudopyloric cells, we determined that it was undergoing metaplasia. To locate a focus of endocrine cells, we used the presence of argyrophil cells and argentaffin cells. RESULTS Metaplastic changes and endocrine cells were observed in 50% or more of the studied tissues that had been sampled from the lesions of chronic cholecystitis, and from the tumor and nontumor sites of gallbladder cancer. The tissues sampled from chronic cholecystitis patients showed endocrine cells releasing gut hormones, and the incidence of tissue presenting with such hormone-secreting cells tended to increase with the degree of metaplasia. The tissues sampled from the gallbladder cancer patients also showed endocrine cells, but the incidence in these tissues was not significantly correlated with the degree of metaplasia. In the tissue sampled from gallbladder cancer patients, the degree of metaplasia and the incidence of the tissues presenting with endocrine cells was not significantly different from the corresponding results obtained from chronic cholecystitis tissues. However, tissues presenting with endocrine cells occurred more frequently in samples from nontumor sites than in samples from chronic cholecystitis sites. The incidence of metaplastic cells and of endocrine cells correlated closely with the genesis of highly differentiated cancers. Lysozyme, a nonspecific defensive factor against infections, was frequently observed in the tissues sampled from patients with chronic cholecystitis as well as those with gallbladder cancer. CONCLUSIONS Although metaplastic changes and endocrine cells were observed in the tissues of chronic cholecystitis as well as gallbladder cancer, these markers were most frequently observed in nontumor sites close to the tumors themselves, suggesting that these markers are closely involved in the genesis of gallbladder cancer.

Abstract
By sequencing genomic DNA from 73 established cell lines derived from Japanese individuals, we detected 9 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the CYP2C8 gene. Of them, 3 exonic SNPs resulted in amino acid alterations (g416a, R139K; a1196g, K399R; c1210g, P404A). The first two alterations were detected concurrently in one cell line and thought to be the same as CYP2C8*3. To examine the effects of these amino acid alterations on CYP2C8 function, wild-type and four types of variant CYP2C8 cDNA constructs (R139K, K399R, R139K/K399R and P404A) were transfected into Hep G2 cells and their paclitaxel 6a-hydroxylase activities were determined in vitro. Km values were not significantly different from that of the wild-type in any of the variants studied. The variant R139K/K399R showed reduced values for Vmax and clearance (Vmax/Km) similar to those of its single variant, R139K. The variant P404A also showed a significantly lowered clearance due to reduced level of protein expression. These results suggest that not only the double variant (R139K/K399R, CYP2C8*3) but also our novel variant P404A in the CYP2C8 gene are less efficient in paclitaxel metabolism.

Abstract
Pentachlorophenol (PCP), a promoter of murine hepatocarcinogenesis, inhibits gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC) in rat liver epithelial cells in vitro. To test the hypothesis that both inhibition of GJIC and apoptosis contribute to tumor promotion, we investigated the effect of PCP on both GJIC and serum deprivation-induced apoptosis in v-myc-transfected rat liver epithelial cells. The results showed that PCP inhibited apoptosis, as measured by the TUNEL assay and DNA ladder formation. Inhibition of apoptosis was associated with a decrease in GJIC. The study demonstrated that PCP has a potential for inhibiting apoptosis and GJIC, supporting the hypothesis.

Abstract
Irinotecan (CPT-11) is an anticancer prodrug. It is converted by carboxylesterase to yield an active metabolite, 7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin (SN-38), which acts as a topoisomerase I inhibitor. Several oxidative metabolites of CPT-11 have been identified in humans, including 7-ethyl-10-[4-N-(5-aminopentanoic acid)-1-piperidino]carbonyloxycamptothecin (APC) and 7-ethyl-10-(4-amino-1-piperidino)carbonyloxycamptothecin (NPC), generated by cytochrome P-450 3A4 (CYP3A4). Other minor metabolites in which metabolic pathways and biologic activities have not been identified also exist. To further investigate the metabolism of CPT-11 in human liver, we analyzed metabolites of CPT-11 in human hepatic microsomes using a high-performance liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (HPLC/MS) system and detected a new metabolite that was the major one produced in the microsomal system. HPLC-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC/MS/MS) analysis indicated that this compound was an oxidation product formed by the loss of two hydrogen atoms from the terminal piperidine ring. Kinetic analyses indicated that a single enzyme generated the metabolite, and we have identified this enzyme in two in vitro systems. The formation of the new metabolite was significantly inhibited by SKF525A, ketoconazole, and an anti-CYP3A4 antibody and catalyzed specifically by CYP3A4 expressed in insect microsomes. A significant correlation was observed between the generation of this metabolite and the CYP3A4 content in individual human hepatic microsomes. These findings indicate that this newly detected metabolite is a CYP3A4-generated product that may be produced in hepatic microsomes of patients treated with CPT-11.

Abstract
To examine the role of cytochrome P450 2A6 (CYP2A6) in the cellular sensitivity to an anti-tumor prodrug, tegafur (FT), a CYP2A6 cDNA construct was transfected into cells of a colon cancer cell line, DLD-1. CYP2A6-expressing cells (DLD-1 / CYP2A6 cells) more efficiently catalyzed the conversion of FT to 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) (2.6-fold) and the 7-hydroxylation of coumarin (7.9-fold) than cells transfected with a null construct (DLD-1 / null cells). These results indicated that the expressed CYP2A6 was functionally active. The extent of growth inhibition of the DLD-1 / CYP2A6 cells by FT was greater than that of DLD-1 / null cells; the difference between the DLD-1 / CYP2A6 and DLD-1 / null cells was statistically significant at the concentrations of 250, 500 and 1000 mM. 5-FU, an active metabolite of FT, inhibited the growth of both types of cells to the same extent. Thus, intracellular expression of CYP2A6 can sensitize cells to FT.

Abstract
The members of the cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A subfamily play an important role in the metabolism of more than 50% of the drugs metabolized by CYPs. Among the CYP3A members, CYP3A5 is known to exhibit polymorphic expression within the human liver. We hypothesized that a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the 5'-regulatory region of the CYP3A5 gene might be the cause of CYP3A5 polymorphic expression. Due to the existence of "CYP3AP1," a highly homologous sequence to the CYP3A5 gene, it was necessary to make specific primers to the CYP3A5 gene. In the present study, we designed a series of oligonucleotide primers for sequencing the proximal promoter region of the CYP3A5 gene in order to search for the putative regulatory single nucleotide polymorphism. We examined 86 established cell lines derived from Japanese individuals as a representation of the Japanese population. However, no SNP was detected in the promoter region of the CYP3A5 gene isolated from the cell lines used, suggesting other causal factors for the observed polymorphism of CYP3A5-dependent drug metabolism.

Abstract
Much evidence has been documented supporting the hypothesis that the down-regulation of gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC) is a cellular event underlying the tumor promotion process and that treatment to prevent the down-regulation or to up-regulate GJIC is important in preventing tumor promotion. We explored the potential preventive effects of green tea against the promoting action of pentachlorophenol (PCP) in mouse hepatocarcinogenesis, examining whether drinking green tea prevents the down-regulation of GJIC inhibition in the liver caused by tumorigenic doses of PCP. We used a modified in vivo GJIC assay, the incision loading/dye transfer method. Male B6C3F1 mice were given a green tea infusion for 1 week and then PCP was fed at a dose of 300 or 600 p.p.m. in the diet for the following 2 weeks, along with green tea treatment. A dose-related inhibition of GJIC in the hepatocytes was evident in the mice treated with PCP alone that was associated with a reduction in connexin32 (Cx32) plaques in the plasma membrane and an increase in the cell proliferation index. Drinking green tea significantly protected mice against GJIC inhibition, the reduction in Cx32 and the elevation of the labeling index. These findings suggest that green tea might act as an anti-promoter against PCP-induced mouse hepatocarcinogenesis via its ability to prevent down-regulation of GJIC.

Abstract
To elucidate the mechanism of hepatocarcinogenesis of pentachlorophenol (PCP) in mice, critical effects related to carcinogenicity were studied in the livers of B6C3F1 male mice administered PCP at concentrations of 600 and 1200 p.p.m. in the diet for 8 weeks. Oxidative stress was assessed by measurements of 8-oxodeoxyguanosine (8-oxodG) in the liver nuclear DNA and hepatocyte cell proliferation was quantified by bromodeoxyuridine incorporation. Also, initiation and promotion were assessed in a two-stage hepatocarcinogenesis model in which one group of mice was given PCP at concentrations of 600 and 1200 p.p.m. as initiator for the first 13 weeks with subsequent administration of phenobarbital (PB) as promoter at a concentration of 500 p.p.m. in the drinking water for 29 weeks. A second group was initiated with diethylnitrosamine (DEN) at 20 p.p.m. in the drinking water for the first 13 weeks followed after a 4 week recovery interval by PCP at concentrations of 300 and 600 p.p.m. in the diet for 25 weeks. Significant elevations in 8-oxodG levels and cell proliferation were observed in a dose-dependent manner. Incidences and multiplicities of hepatocellular tumors in mice treated with PCP after DEN initiation were increased compared with those in mice given initiation only. In contrast, in mice given PCP as initiator followed by PB no enhancement of neoplastic lesions occurred. These findings are interpreted to demonstrate that PCP exerts a promoting action, but not an initiating effect on liver carcinogenesis and that the promoting action is related to oxidative stress and compensatory hepatocellular proliferation.

Abstract
We first showed a drinking of green tea infusion can inhibit chemically induced possible hepatic tissue damages in animal experiments, although it has been shown that oral administration of green tea extract can inhibit some organ toxicities. In this review, our data are summarized and a possibility of the effectiveness in humans is discussed. Male rats or mice in the series of experiments were given 2% green tea infusion as a drinking water 1 or 2 weeks before the chemical treatment and until the termination. In the study of rats, green tea effectively inhibited the hepatotoxicity induced by a single intraperitoneal injection or by repeated gavage administration of 2-nitropropane, and a single intraperitoneal injection of galactosamine. However, any possible effects were not observed when green tea was given, on the hepatotoxicity by a single or repeated gavage administration of carbon tetrachloride. In the study of mice, green tea inhibited the hepatotoxicity induced by administration of pentachlorophenol in diet. In conclusion, 2% green tea infusion can prevent the hepatotoxicity by at least some chemicals in experimental animals. It is inferred that the amount of green tea taken by animals in this experiment might be equivalent to the daily intake in Japanese general population, by calculation based on the content of epigallocatechin gallate, a major component of green tea, and the species differences between experimental animals and humans, suggesting the preventive effectiveness in humans.

Abstract
To evaluate the benefit of green tea in mitigating hazards caused by repeated exposure of 2-nitropropane (2NP), we examined the effects of the tea on toxic indices, oxidative DNA damage and cell proliferation in the liver of 2NP-treated rats. Male Fischer 344 rats were administered, by gastric intubation, a total of six doses of 60 mg/kg 2NP(L), or alternatively two doses of 90 mg/kg and then four doses of 120 mg/kg 2NP(H) during 2 weeks. Green tea infusion was given to the rats as drinking water 1 week before the 2NP treatments and throughout the experiment. Significant elevation of hepatotoxic indices was evident in the 2NP(H)-treated group, such as an increase of serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT) activity and of hepatic lipid peroxidation, together with a decrease in hepatic glycogen and serum triglyceride, and degenerative changes in the hepatocytes. A dose-related increase was observed in oxidative DNA damage and cell proliferation in the liver. Green tea effectively inhibited all of above changes induced by 2NP treatment, suggesting that tea intake may be effective for preventing the hepatic injuries after chronic exposure to 2NP.

Abstract
To understand the initiating/promoting actions of pentachlorophenol (PCP), a non-mutagenic hepatocarcinogen, and its metabolite, tetrachlorohydroquinone (TCHQ), we investigated the effects of each chemical on gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC) in rat liver epithelial cells (WB cells) by the scrape-loading and dye transfer method. After treatment with PCP, the GJIC was initially inhibited at 4 h but was restored in 6-8 h, followed by a second phase of inhibition between 16 and 24 h. Both the first and second inhibitions were concentration-dependent and were restored by 2-4 h after removal of PCP. The phosphorylation state of connexin 43 (CX43) and its localization on the plasma membrane were unchanged up to 24 h after treatment; however, this was accompanied by a decrease in the CX43 protein level. No inhibitory effect was apparent on the GJIC of cells treated with TCHQ. These results suggest that PCP may play a critical role of promoting activity via non-mutagenic mechanisms.

Abstract
Two surgical cases of benign schwannoma of the liver were examined: A 64-year-old female who was admitted to hospital for the treatment of early gastric cancer (case 1) and a 69-year-old female who had pitting edema in the legs (case 2). Diagnostic imaging revealed large solid masses located in the caudate lobe through to the left lobe of the liver in case 1 and in the left lobe in case 2. Both patients showed no signs of von Recklinghausen's disease. Partial hepatectomies were performed and the maximum diameter of their resected hepatic tumors was 4 cm and 15 cm, respectively. Histologically, the well-demarcated tumors were yellowish in color, elastic-hard in consistency and consisted predominantly of short spindle-shaped cells proliferating in an interlacing fashion. The tumor lesions were separated by fibrous bands and surrounded by a lymphoid cuff. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells were positive for S-100 protein. The tumors were diagnosed as benign hepatic schwannoma.

Abstract
It has been assumed that oxidative damage, including formation of 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) adducts in kidney DNA due to potassium bromate (KBrO3), a renal carcinogen to both sexes of rats, is involved in its mechanisms of tumor induction. However, despite the presumed existence of a repair enzyme(s) for 8-OHdG, there have been no reports demonstrating the changes in adduct levels during medium- or long-term exposure. To elucidate the actual kinetics regarding this parameter during the early stages of KBrO3 carcinogenesis, we measured 8-OHdG levels in kidney DNA together with cell proliferation in renal tubules in both sexes of rats receiving KBrO3 at a dose of 500 ppm in the drinking water for 1, 2, 3, 4, and 13 weeks. Rapid elevation of 8-OHdG levels was noted in treated male rats which persisted until the end of the experiment. Increased cell proliferation in the proximal convoluted tubules was also observed throughout the experimental period, concomitant with alpha2mu-globulin accumulation. Increase in 8-OHdG levels in treated females first became apparent 3 weeks after the start of exposure, with cell proliferation only elevated at the 13-week time point. The present study, employing the same route and dose of KBrO3 known to cause tumors, strongly suggested the requirement of persistent increase of 8-OHdG for neoplastic conversion. Moreover, a clear sex difference in susceptibility to generation of oxidative stress in kidney DNA was found, in addition to alpha2mu-globulin-dependent variation in cell proliferation in the renal tubules.

Abstract
The transfer of intercostal nerves to musculocutaneous nerves has been performed to reconstruct elbow flexion in patients with brachial plexus injury. In nine of 15 such patients, 2-3 Hz tapping of the distal tendon of the biceps muscle reinnervated by the transferred intercostal nerves (IC-biceps) induced a mode in the correlogram between tap and EMG pulse of IC-biceps. In five of the mode-positive patients, tapping of various frequencies induced gradual augmentation of integrated EMG of IC-biceps. This reflex was consistent with the tonic vibration reflex (TVR) in normal controls. Conduction velocity and frequency property of the reflex were compatible with the speculation that rapid-conducting muscle afferents (group Ia or II or both) reinnervate mechanoreceptors, such as muscle spindles. The clinical significance of muscle sensory reinnervation is not clear; however, the reconstruction of TVR following this operation is worthy in that it confirms the specific sensory reinnervation of denervated muscle in humans.

Abstract
Groups of 30 Wistar rats of each sex were treated with 2,2'-methylenebis(4-ethyl-6-tert-butylphenol) (MBEBP) in the diet at levels of 0, 0.03, 0.1 and 0.3% for up to 18 months. In both sexes, survival rates of treated groups were similar to those of the controls. Body weight gain was depressed (0.3% group in males, 0.1 and 0.3% groups in females). Slight anaemia (0.3% groups in both sexes) and increase of blood urea nitrogen (0.3% groups in both sexes) were observed. Histopathologically, vacuolization of the parathyroid gland cells (0.3% group in males and all treated groups in females) and degenerative changes of the kidney (0.1 and 0.3% groups in males) were observed. No neoplastic responses following MBEBP administration were noted. From these results, the no-observed-adverse-effect level (NOAEL) for MBEBP toxicity was estimated as 12 mg kg-1 body wt. day-1 in male rats. In female rats, the lowest-observed-adverse-effect level (LOAEL) was estimated as 15 mg kg-1 body wt. day-1.

Abstract
The effects of five naturally occurring antioxidants, beta-carotene (BC), vitamin C (VC), vitamin E (VE), ellagic acid (EA) and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) on 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG) formation by 2-nitropropane (2-NP), a hepatocarcinogen in rats, were studied. Four days oral administration of VE (100 mg/kg BW/day) or EA (100 mg/kg BW/day) significantly inhibited 8-OH-dG formation in the liver nuclear DNA of male F-344 rats injected with 2-NP (100 mg/kg BW, i.p., killed 6 h later). The same treatment with EGCG (100 mg/kg BW/day) showed slight, but not significant, inhibition. In contrast, 4 days' oral administration of BC (100 mg/kg BW/day) or VC (300 mg/kg BW/day) and 3 weeks' feeding of the two (either at 0.5% in the diet) did not produce any inhibitory effects on 8-OH-dG formation. Thus, it is expected that VE and EA may have anticarcinogenic effects towards 2-NP.

Abstract
In order to clarify the role of oxidative stress in carcinogenesis by potassium bromate (KBrO3), 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG) levels and cumulating replicating fractions (CRFs) were measured in the kidneys and livers of F344 rats receiving gavage doses of 100, 200 or 400 mg/kg. We used female rats in this study to allow the potential of KBrO3 for inducing alpha 2u-globulin accumulation--known to result in sustained cell proliferation and eventual promoting activity in males--to be ignored. Additional female rats were given 0.05% N-ethyl-N-hydroxyethylnitrosamine (EHEN) orally for the first 2 weeks as an initiator with subsequent administration of KBrO3 at a dose of 500 p.p.m. in the drinking water for 30 weeks. 8-OH-dG levels in the kidneys were significantly elevated with doses of 200 and 400 mg/kg, and this correlated with increases of the CRFs of proximal tubules. In the livers, however, no significant changes were found. In the promotion bioassay, the mean numbers of atypical tubules, atypical hyperplasias and renal cell tumors per rat in animals treated with KBrO3 after EHEN initiation were significantly higher than those in animals receiving distilled water after EHEN initiation. In contrast, there were no significant differences between groups in terms of liver tumors. The overall data suggest that oxidative stress generated by KBrO3 exposure might be associated with induction of cell proliferation and associated promoting activity.

Abstract
Pre-operative diagnosis of the depth of invasion is important to decide the treatment of superficial esophageal carcinoma. The ability of EUS to diagnose the depth of invasion was examined in 40 lesions with superficial esophageal carcinoma between January 1993 and April 1994. The depth of invasion was classified as m1 or m2, m3 or sm1, and sm2 or more. Mucosal carcinoma could be detected clearly by using the 20MHz miniature probe. The diagnostic accuracy was 82.5% in all 40 lesions, and 77.8% in mucosal carcinoma (included with sm1). The reasons for incorrect diagnosis were broadness of the lesion, microinvasion, and artifact of endoscopic biopsy. EUS is considered to be useful even for superficial esophageal carcinoma as one of the preoperative diagnostic imagings.
