Abstract
Abstract
Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) fiber was heated by carbon dioxide laser radiation during the continuous drawing process. Numerical calculation shows that the PET fiber can be heated much more rapidly and uniformly by heat radiation than by convective heat transfer through the fiber surface. During CO2 laser heated drawing, temperature in the vicinity of a neck-like deformation can be measured on-line with high precision, because the neck-like deformation is located within a range of 0.5 mm. We measured the fiber temperature profiles on the drawing process by IR thermometer that has a range resolution of 0.355 mm. The temperature at which neck-like deformation of the fiber initiates is higher than Tg when draw ratio is less than 4.5, but lower than Tg when draw ratio is more than 5.5. The maximum fiber temperature in the drawing process increases with draw ratio, up to 208°C for a draw ratio of 6.0. The rate of orientation-induced crystallization in the drawing process was estimated by comparison of measured temperature profiles with calculated temperature profiles.

Abstract
Poly (ethylene terephthalate) (PET) fiber was heated by carbon dioxide laser radiation in the continuous drawing process. By this procedure, the position of the deformation region could be fixed precisely in the air. The location of neck-like deformation fluctuated within a range of about 0.2 mm for draw ratios of 4.0 to 4.5 and within a range of about 0.5 mm for draw ratios of 5.5 to 6.0, but the location fluctuated over a range of 1.0 mm for a draw ratio of 5.0. Fiber diameter profiles, which were used to calculate Hencky strain rate profiles and apparent elongational viscosity profiles, were obtained from high-speed video camera images of the deformation region. Regardless of draw ratio, apparent elongational viscosity exhibited almost the same minimum value. Apparent elongational viscosity is much lower than the value obtained by measurement at a low, constant strain rate, but the elongational stress acting at the point where apparent elongational viscosity begins to increase steeply (Hencky strain of about 1.0) is of the same order of magnitude as the reported value. For draw ratios less than 5.0, the temperature where apparent viscosity is lowest is about 100 to 120°C, which corresponds to the flow temperature of amorphous PET, whereas for draw ratios exceeding 5.0 the temperature where apparent viscosity is lowest is about 80°C, which corresponds to the glass transition temperature. Thus, the former corresponds to so-called neck-like deformation typically observed in high-speed spinning, and the latter corresponds to necking typically observed in cold drawing. These two types of deformation appear in turns for a draw ratio of 5.0, and therefore the location of the deformation region fluctuates greatly. This measurement system can be used as a high-strain-rate elongational rheometer for analyzing practical polymer processing systems, which can easily measure the precise on-line deformation history with a time resolution in the μs level.

Abstract
The mechanical properties of conjugated-spun and laser drawn poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) fibers were investigated. The as-spun fibers used for the laser drawing were made by conjugated melt spinning with the copolymer of p-hydroxybenzoicacid and 2-hydroxy-6-naphthoicacid or polystyrene. The PET fibers prepared by conjugated spinning could be laser drawn to higher draw ratios under lower drawing stresses. The drawn fiber could be re-drawn up to a higher total draw ratio. Thus, a PET fiber having a tensile strength of 1.14 N/tex could be produced.

Abstract
Abstract
A new semiaromatic polyamide, PA9-T, was melt-spun at take-up speeds from 200 to 1000m min−1. The as-spun fibers were drawn with CO2 laser-heated drawing to their maximal draw ratio (DRmax). The drawing stress was recorded during this process. The effects of take-up speed of melt-spinning on maximally drawn fibers were characterized through measurements of density, birefringence, wide-angle X-ray diffraction, crystal orientation, tensile testing, and dynamic viscoelastic analysis. All as-spun fibers were essentially amorphous and their birefringence and density increased slightly with the increase of take-up speed. Lower take-up speeds yielded higher DRmax values, and fibers drawn to their DRmax exhibited superior structure and mechanical properties. The tensile strength and Young's modulus achieved were the highest reported to date for PA9-T: 737 MPa and 5.8 GPa, respectively.

Abstract
Spinal muscular atrophy is an autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder with progressive weakness and atrophy of voluntary muscles. The survival motor neuron gene (SMN) is present in two highly homologous copies (SMN1 and SMN2) on chromosome 5q13. Homozygous deletion of exons 7 and 8 of SMN1 is responsible for spinal muscular atrophy. In spinal muscular atrophy patients, SMN2 partially compensates for the lack of SMN1. Previously, we reported the relatively high incidence of a large deletion including the SMN1 region in Japanese spinal muscular atrophy type I patients. In order to further establish the genetic background of Japanese spinal muscular atrophy type I patients, we investigated the SMN1/SMN2 ratio in the carriers. In normal individuals, there is one copy of each gene on the chromosome (the SMN1/SMN2 ratio was 1). Among 15 carriers (14 parents and one carrier sibling of Japanese type I spinal muscular atrophy patients with homozygous deletion of exons 7 and 8 of SMN1), we found that the SMN1/SMN2 ratio was 0.5 or 1 in 11 (73.3%) carriers. The remaining four carriers had an SMN1/SMN2 ratio of 1/3. This finding supports the idea that deletion rather than conversion is the main genetic event in type I spinal muscular atrophy. In addition, the ratio of SMN1/SMN2 among Japanese carriers, which was thought to be higher than that of the Western population, was compatible with the results obtained in Western populations. For further insight into the characteristic genetic background of spinal muscular atrophy in Japanese, determination of the gene copy number is essential.

Abstract
This study was designed to evaluate the role of endogenous nitric oxide (NO) in focal microcirculation disorder of the guinea pig cochlea. Focal microcirculation disorder was induced by a photochemical reaction at the lateral wall of the second cochlear turn. Saline or N omega-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) was administered before the onset of photochemical reaction. Cochlear blood flow (CBF) was measured at the focal lesion (ischemic core), 1 mm from the lesion in the apical and basal direction (ischemic border zone) by using a novel non-contact laser blood flowmeter. NO synthase activities were measured by radioenzymeassay. In the saline pretreatment group, CBF was significantly decreased to 58.8+/-4.4% of the baseline at the ischemic core 30 min after the onset of photochemical reaction (P<0.01), while CBF showed no significant change at the ischemic border zone. In the L-NAME pretreatment group, CBF was significantly decreased not only at the focal lesion (48.3+/-6.5%, P<0.01), but also at the ischemic border zone (apical, 49.3+/-2.3%, P<0.05; basal, 58.7+/-7.1%, P<0.05, respectively). NO synthase III activity of cochlea was increased significantly (P<0.01) 15 min after microcirculation disorder. These findings suggest that formation of endogenous NO plays a key role in the maintenance of CBF in acute focal cochlear microcirculation disorder.

Abstract
Megalin is an endocytic receptor predominantly expressed in the kidney proximal tubule cells. In the present study, localization of megalin was examined using a post-embedding immunogold method in the rat cochlear duct. Marginal cells of the stria vascularis were labeled on the apical surface, but not on the basolateral surface. This localization pattern resembles kidney proximal tubule cells. Immunoreactivity was also detected on various other cells, including epithelial cells of the spiral prominence and epithelial cells of Reissner's membrane. In contrast, virtually no gold particles were seen on intermediate cells and basal cells of the stria vascularis, mesothelial cells of Reissner's membrane or fibrocytes in the lateral wall. Also unlabeled were cells in the tympanic wall of the cochlear duct, including sensory cells and supporting cells of the organ of Corti. The present findings show the involvement of megalin in endocytosis of marginal cells and are suggestive of different uptake mechanisms for aminoglycosides in the kidney proximal tubule cells and in the cochlear sensory cells.

Abstract
To estimate the correlation between the cochlear lateral wall and endocochlear potential (EP), the EP was measured at different time intervals up to 3 weeks at cochlear focal lesions made in the guinea pig. Lesions were produced by a photochemical reaction between systemically administered Rose Bengal and green light illumination in the second cochlear turn. Focal strial lesions (mean diameter 975 microm) became apparent under a scanning electron microscope 60 min after illumination, and degeneration of the organ of Corti was recognized at 3 days. The EP was measured continuously for 1 h following onset of the reaction in eight ears. In the other ears, EP measurements were done after various intervals of time up to 3 weeks. The EP showed two declines from pre-illumination level. The first started soon after illumination, reached a minimum value at 25 min, and then slightly recovered by 1 h. The second decline appeared at 3 days after illumination. In contrast to evident focal morphological degeneration 2 weeks post illumination, the EP values had recovered to almost normal. We suggest that the sequential changes in the EP were produced depending on the degeneration and then repairing processes of the endolymphatic boundary tissues.

Abstract
We evaluated the ability of various drugs to prevent the decrease in focal cochlear blood flow induced by photochemical reaction and investigated the mechanisms underlying this decrease. By means of a photochemical reaction, which produces reactive oxygen species, focal lesions measuring about 1 mm in diameter were induced in the lateral wall of the guinea pig cochlea. The protective effects of hydrocortisone, amidotrizoate and ATP on cochlear blood flow and cochlear vascular conductance changes were evaluated by using a non-contact laser flowmeter. Cochlear blood flow and cochlear vascular conductance were decreased to 65.1+/-4.9% (mean +/- S.E.M.) and 57.0+/-3.7% (mean +/- S.E.M.) of the initial level 30 min after the start of the photochemical reaction, respectively. Hydrocortisone significantly prevented the decline in the cochlear blood flow and cochlear vascular conductance and reduced the area of stria vascularis degeneration in a dose-dependent manner. Neither amidotrizoate nor ATP significantly prevented the decrease in cochlear blood flow or cochlear vascular conductance. Hydrocortisone was more effective than vasodilators or other agents which increase cochlear blood flow in preventing the photochemically induced decrease in cochlear blood flow. This might be due to the antioxidative effects of hydrocortisone.

Abstract
The focal microcirculation damage induced by a photochemical reaction in the stria vascularis (SV) of the guinea pig cochlea was evaluated using a non-contact laser blood flowmeter (NCLBF) and the endocochlear potential (EP). Focal degeneration, including vascular thrombosis in the SV produced by the systemic infusion of rose bengal, and the illumination of green light in the second cochlear turn were observed with scanning and transmission electron microscopy. The NCLBF probe was placed at a position 10 mm from the cochlear surface, and the diameter of the laser light was focused to 1 mm in the green light illumination area. The change in NCLBF values induced by the loading of anoxia and administration of epinephrine agreed very well with those obtained with a conventional contact-type laser Doppler flowmeter. Significant decreases in the cochlear blood flow (CBF) (p < 0.01) and EP (p < 0.01) were observed at the site of the photochemical injury compared with the values at the non-illuminated area. CBF gradually decreased (82.0+/-7.3% at 10 min, 71.2+/-5.5% at 20 min, 64.3+/-11.2% at 30 min from the baseline, n=7), but blood pressure was stable. The EP values also decreased gradually during the first 13 min (79.9+/-3.7 mV at pre-illumination, 11.4+/-10.7 mV at 13 min, n=7). The gradual decline in the EP was comparable to the changes in the CBF. The NCLBF was useful for evaluating the haemodynamic properties of the cochlear microcirculation disorders, and this animal model is expected to be suitable for studying the pathology of focal cochlear vascular disease.

Abstract
Hydrogels were prepared from poly(vinyl alcohol) and chitosan in various blend ratios. The water contents of the hydrogels were in the range of 65 to 75 wt %. The attachment and growth of fibroblast cells (L-929) on the hydrogels were studied with a cell culture method. On the hydrogels with more than 15 wt % chitosan content, the attached cells were able not only to remain viable but also to proliferate. The relative cell attachment after incubation for 30 h increased with increasing chitosan content in the hydrogels. Cell attachment and growth on the hydrogel with 40 wt % chitosan content exceeded those on collagen, a widely-used mammalian cell culture substrate. The morphology of the cells attached onto the hydrogels with a lower chitosan content was spherical, but in hydrogels with more than 15 wt % chitosan content, the number of spindle-shaped cells increased with increasing chitosan content.

Abstract
A 68-year-old man was admitted with suprasellar cystic tumor with obstructive hydrocephalus, and complaining of slowly progressive memory disturbance, gait disturbance and urinary incontinence. Neurological examination revealed bilateral visual disturbance and disorientation. Skull X-ray films revealed no dilatation of sella turnica and mild erosion of the dorsum sellae. A cystic suprasellar tumor was revealed extending upward to the third ventricular floor and the solid part of the tumor was homogeneously enhanced with Gd-DTPA on MRI. The T1-weighted sagittal MR image revealed a normal pituitary gland and the diaphragma sellae below the tumor. The tumor was totally removed via a bifrontal basal interhemispheric approach, and the tumor was attached to the pituitary stalk and was not contiguous with the pituitary gland. The histological diagnosis was sinusoidal type of chromophobe and non-functioning adenoma. Postoperative MRI revealed a preserved normal pituitary gland and the stalk. To our knowledge, only 11 cases of suprasellar ectopic pituitary adenoma have been reported. We reviewed their neuroradiological features and discussed the pathogenesis. In particular, cystic and nonfunctioning suprasellar ectopic pituitary adenoma may be difficult to distinguish from craniopharyngioma.

Abstract
A cationic, high-water-content hydrogel membrane composed of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and poly(ally-biguanido-co-allylamine) hydrochloride (PAB) with positively charged biguanido groups that resemble arginine residues was developed. The PAB was prepared by reacting poly(allylamine) hydrochloride (PAA) with guanyl-O-methyl isourea. PAB/PVA hydrogel membranes were prepared by repeated freezing and thawing. For comparison, hydrogel membranes composed of PAA and PVA were also prepared. The interaction between these hydrogel membranes and mouse fibroblast (L929) was studied by a cell culture method. The PAB hydrogel blend had a relatively low percentage of initial cell attachment. The cell growth on the PAB hydrogel membranes showed a maximum at 5 mol % PAB content that was as high as commercially available plastic films. However, cells on hydrogel membranes with 50 mol % PAB content and 0 mol % PAB content (only PVA) did not seem to grow; neither did the 5/95 PAA/PVA membranes. Water contact angles of hydrogel membranes did not vary with the PAB content. Morphology of the cell attachment was observed by SEM. On the PAB blend hydrogel surfaces, cells were not spindle-shaped and monolayers, but rather cells aggregated in spherical clusters.

Abstract
The small-angle X-ray scattering was observed from beta-casein micelles in 0.2 M phosphate buffer (pH 6.7) with varying temperatures. An oblate ellipsoid of a rigid core with a thin soft layer was proposed as a probable model of the beta-casein micellar structure, according to the results of the model optimization with simple triaxial bodies. Here the axial ratio was found to decrease and the micelle to become spherical when the polymerization proceeds with temperature. The consistency of the present model was examined with the results of hydrodynamic measurements published previously.

Abstract
This paper describes a facsimile-based graphics editing system using handwritten mark recognition, and presents some experimental results with the system. In a manner different from usual graphics editors based on CRT displays and data tablets, only facsimiles are used as input and output devices in this system. As the first stage in processing, a graphic subject is first given as a set of line drawings and characters handwritten on a sheet of paper, and it is then input into the computer as a binary picture from a facsimile transmitter. Auxiliary editing information is input into the computer as handwritten marks or seal marks prepared on a separate sheet of paper. As the second stage, the marks are recognized and used to create a mark parameter list for the graphics editing. Third, referencing the mark parameter list, the graphics are expressed by using a set of graphic commands, and edited by the computer. Finally, a correct edited copy of the graphics is constructed by picture processing based on graphic commands, and it is output to a facsimile receiver. Very good results have been obtained for various kinds of hand-written graphics by using the system described here.
