Abstract
INTRODUCTION Short femoral hip stems with a metaphyseal anchoring concept have been designed to treat younger patients with good bone quality. The aim of this study was to reconstruct the centre of rotation and soft tissue balancing and preserve bone in the long-term perspective. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighteen human femurs were randomised into three groups: (1) metaphyseal anchoring short stem, (2) shortened straight stem, (3) straight stem). Prior to the implantation of the hip stems, a computed tomography (CT) of the bones was performed and the femoral ante-torsion and ante-tilt was measured and compared to the results of the post-implantation CT. This could be calculated based on the 3D coordinates taken from the pre- and post-op CT scans, which were transformed into the same coordinate systems. RESULTS The mean preoperative caput-collum-diaphyseal (CCD) angle for the three groups was 126.87° ± 3.50° (Group 3: 129.64° ± 3.53°, Group 1: 123.76° ± 5.56°, Group 2: 127.53° ± 1.42°) and was consistent with published reports. The postoperative CCD angles with 126.85° ± 3.43° were within a very good reconstruction range for all three groups. The anterior offset comparison among these three groups showed significant difference in reconstruction. The smallest difference between the anatomical (preoperative) and postoperative condition was seen in Group 1 (1.47° ± 0.60°), followed by Group 2 (3.60° ± 0.23°) and Group 3 (8.00° ± 0.70°) groups. The horizontal offset showed no significant difference among the groups and was within the window of ± 5 mm. CONCLUSION In this cadaver study, we found that the metaphyseal anchoring, partially neck-preserving short hip stem best reconstructs the ante-torsion and the ante-tilt of the femoral neck. Therefore, it can be a useful stem in younger or active middle-aged patients.

Abstract
We previously identified dibenzooxepine derivative 1 as a potent PPARγ ligand with a unique binding mode owing to its non-thiazolidinedione scaffold. However, while 1 showed remarkably potent MKN-45 gastric cancer cell aggregation activity, an indicator of cancer differentiation-inducing activity induced by PPARγ activation, we recognized that 1 was metabolically unstable. In the present study, we identified a metabolically soft spot, and successfully discovered 3-fluoro dibenzooxepine derivative 9 with better metabolic stability. Further optimization provided imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine derivative 17, which showed potent MKN-45 gastric cancer cell aggregation activity and excellent PK profiles compared with 9. Compound 17 exerted a growth inhibitory effect on AsPC-1/AG1 pancreatic tumor in mice. Furthermore, the decrease in the hematocrit (an indicator of localized edema, a serious adverse effect of PPARγ ligands) was tolerable even with oral administration at 200 mg/kg in healthy mice.

Abstract
Abstract
A Certified Reference Material (CRM) was prepared at the National Institute for Environmental Studies (NIES), Japan, in collaboration with the National Institute of Radiological Sciences (NIRS), Japan, for the analytical quality assurance of minor and trace elements in food and related matrixes. The starting material for the CRM was all food served in 29 households in Japan over two 3-day periods in 1997–1998, and thus the CRM represented a typical Japanese diet. All foods (meals, snacks, and beverages) were homogenized, freeze-dried, pulverized, blended, dispensed into 1100 bottles, and sterilized. The within- and between-bottle homogeneity of the prepared CRM was satisfactory for most of the elements. The concentrations of 14 elements (Na, Mg, K, Ca, Mn, Cu, Zn, As, Se, Sr, Cd, Sn, Ba, and U) were certified based on a collaborative analysis involving NIES, NIRS, and 20 other laboratories. Reference values were given for the concentrations of 12 additional elements (P, Cl, Fe, Co, Ni, Br, Rb, Mo, I, Cs, Pb, and Th). The elements certified and those given reference values include minerals, essential trace elements, contaminant elements, and long-lived radionuclides. Thus, this CRM is of practical value in the quality assurance of element analysis of foods and diets in nutritional, environmental, and radiological research.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Women are more susceptible to develop several forms of pulmonary hypertension, but they may have better survival rates than men. Sparse data are available concerning sex-specific differences in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH).
Purpose and methods
We investigated sex-specific differences in the clinical presentation of CTEPH, functional parameters, exposure to pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA), and survival.
Results
Women constituted half of the study population (N=679 treatment-naïve patients from the European CTEPH registry) and were characterized by a lower prevalence of some cardiovascular risk factors (e.g. prior acute coronary syndrome, smoking habit, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), but more prevalent obesity, cancer, and thyroid diseases. Median age was 62 (IQR 50–73) years in women and 63 (IQR 53–70) in men. Women underwent PEA less often than men (54% vs 65%; Figure 1, Panel A) and were exposed to fewer additional cardiac procedures, notably coronary artery bypass graft surgery (0.5% vs. 9.5%). The prevalence of specific reasons for not being operated, including the patient's refusal and the proportion of proximal vs. distal lesions, did not differ between sexes. A total of 57 (17.0%) deaths in women and 70 (20.7%) in men were recorded over long-term follow-up. Female sex was positively associated with long-term survival (adjusted Hazard Ratio 0.66; 95% Confidence Interval 0.46–0.94). Short-term mortality was identical in the two groups (Figure 1, Panel B).
Conclusions
Women with CTEPH had a lower prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors and underwent PEA less frequently than men, who, in turn, were more often exposed to additional major cardiac surgery procedures. Women had more favorable long-term survival.

Abstract
A novel class of PPARγ ligand 1 (EC50 = 197 nM) with a dibenzoazepin scaffold was identified through high-throughput screening campaign. To avoid the synthetically troublesome chiral center of 1, its conformational analysis using the MacroModel was conducted, focusing on conformational flip of the tricyclic ring and the conformational restriction by the methyl group at the chiral center. On the basis of this analysis, scaffold hopping of dibenzoazepine into dibenzo[ b, e]oxepine by replacing the chiral structures with the corresponding olefinic E/ Z isomers was performed. Consequently, dibenzo[ b, e]oxepine scaffold 9 was developed showing extremely potent PPARγ reporter activity (EC50 = 2.4 nM, efficacy = 9.5%) as well as differentiation-inducing activity against a gastric cancer cell line MKN-45 that was more potent than any other well-known PPARγ agonists in vitro (94% at 30 nM). The X-ray crystal structure analysis of 9 complexed with PPARγ showed that it had a unique binding mode to PPARγ ligand-binding domain that differed from that of any other PPARγ agonists identified thus far.

Abstract
Bone quality is defined by structural and material characteristics. Most studies on the mandible have focused on the analysis of structural characteristics, with insufficient investigation of material characteristics. This study tested whether zoledronate affects the material characteristics of newly formed mandibular bone. Thirty-six female Wistar rats were assigned to three groups: sham-ovariectomized rats (SHAM, n=12), ovariectomized rats (OVX, n=12), and ovariectomized rats treated with zoledronate (ZOL, n=12). The left side of the mandibular ramus of all rats was drilled bicortically. Twenty-eight days after surgery, all surviving rats were euthanized and all mandibles were removed. Raman microspectroscopy was performed, and five spectra per specimen of newly formed mandibular bone were analysed. Compared with OVX rats, the mineral/matrix ratio in ZOL rats was significantly increased (5.43±1.88 vs. 7.86±2.05), while crystallinity (0.055±0.002 vs. 0.050±0.002), relative proteoglycan content (0.43±0.10 vs. 0.31±0.05), and collagen structural integrity (1.16±0.21 vs. 0.72±0.06) were significantly decreased. These changes in material characteristics may explain why rats that received zoledronate exhibited peculiar biological phenomena such as bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw.

Abstract
Loss of polarity and quiescence along with increased cellular invasiveness are associated with breast tumor progression. ROCK plays a central role in actin-cytoskeletal rearrangement. We used physiologically relevant 3D cultures of nonmalignant and cancer cells in gels made of laminin-rich extracellular matrix, to investigate ROCK function. Whereas expression levels of ROCK1 and ROCK2 were elevated in cancer cells compared to nonmalignant cells, this was not observed in 2D cultures. Malignant cells showed increased phosphorylation of MLC, corresponding to disorganized F-actin. Inhibition of ROCK signaling restored polarity, decreased disorganization of F-actin, and led to reduction of proliferation. Inhibition of ROCK also decreased EGFR and Integrinβ1 levels, and consequently suppressed activation of Akt, MAPK and FAK as well as GLUT3 and LDHA levels. Again, ROCK inhibition did not inhibit these molecules in 2D. A triple negative breast cancer cell line, which lacks E-cadherin, had high levels of ROCK but was less sensitive to ROCK inhibitors. Exogenous overexpression of E-cadherin, however, rendered these cells strikingly sensitive to ROCK inhibition. Our results add to the growing literature that demonstrate the importance of context and tissue architecture in determining not only regulation of normal and malignant phenotypes but also drug response.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE In the elderly and patients with dysphagia, masticatory problems often cause aspiration or choking. Although simple methods to predict aspiration and silent aspiration exist, methods for evaluating the masticatory function of patients with dysphagia are lacking. Accordingly, we developed a simple test to assess the chewing and swallowing ability of patients with dysphagia. METHODS One hundred and five patients with dysphagia were included. We used the Saku-Saku Test (SST), in which patients were asked to eat a rice cracker, and evaluated the quality of mandibular rotation during mastication. We studied the participants' ability to grind, aggregate, and swallow using videoendoscopic evaluation (VE) and investigated its association with mandibular rotation. RESULTS The SST showed good reliability between two examiners, with a kappa coefficient of 0.80. 92.4% of the patients ate the rice cracker without aspiration. The SST showed a high sensitivity of 73.3% and specificity of 93.3% for the degree of grinding. The degree of food bolus aggregation had a sensitivity of 45.0% and specificity of 90.6%, and aspiration had a sensitivity of 25.0% and specificity of 84.5%, both of which showed high specificity. CONCLUSIONS The results of this study suggested that the SST might be simple and useful for identifying patients with dysphagia who are able to masticate, even if they do not eat foods that need chewing and could be used before starting these patients on foods that need chewing.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of fine needle aspiration cytology for the preoperative diagnosis of soft tissue tumours of the hand. Fine needle aspiration cytology was performed on 93 soft tissue tumours of the hand which were classified as malignant, benign or unclassified based on cytological findings. We also attempted to make specific diagnosis by cytology. The cytological diagnosis was then compared with the postoperative histopathological diagnosis. The cytological differentiation between benign and malignant tumours showed neither false-positive nor false-negative results. Of the 47 lesions with sufficient material for cytology and that were postoperatively diagnosed histologically, 35 (including one recurrent lesion) were correctly diagnosed by fine needle aspiration cytology. No complications were encountered. Fine needle aspiration cytology has a high degree of diagnostic accuracy and safety for soft tissue tumours of the hand.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Pleomorphic lobular carcinoma (PLC) is a subtype of breast cancer with unique morphological features, but it remains controversial whether PLC should be considered an independent disease entity. The aim of this study was to illustrate cytopathological characteristics of PLC in comparison with other lobular carcinoma variants. METHODS We investigated clinicopathological features of PLC (n = 11) compared with those of other variants of invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC, non-PLC) (n = 32). Histological variants of the non-PLC group consisted of classic (n = 25), solid (n = 2), alveolar (n = 1) and a tubulolobular type (n = 4). A review of cytological reports and fine needle aspiration (FNA) smear samples was performed for the PLC (n = 9) and non-PLC (n = 27) groups. RESULTS Patients with PLC were older, and had a higher nuclear grade and a higher incidence of axillary lymph node metastasis and triple negative phenotype than non-PLC patients (P = 0.007, P < 0.001, P = 0.02 and P < 0.001, respectively). Cytological findings in PLC included medium- to large-sized nuclei, prominent nucleoli, a moderate-to-severe degree of pleomorphism, apocrine change and background necrosis, none of which were evident in the smears of the non-PLC group (P < 0.001, P = 0.002, P < 0.001, P < 0.001, and P = 0.03, respectively). Despite these differences, patients with PLC and non-PLC showed similar clinical outcomes in our follow-up period. CONCLUSIONS Based on our results, a cytological diagnosis of PLC should be proposed if there are moderate- to large-sized nuclei, prominent nucleoli, a moderate-to severe degree of nuclear pleomorphism, apocrine change and necrosis in the background in FNA biopsy samples.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Mucinous carcinoma (MCA) may show neuroendocrine differentiation (ND), but the cytological features characteristic of ND remains elusive. We compared fine needle aspiration (FNA) findings of MCA between cases with high and low degrees of ND. METHODS Histological sections of 37 MCA cases were immunohistochemically evaluated for expression of chromogranin A and synaptophysin, and were graded as 0 to 3+ degrees of ND. They were divided into low ND (grade 0 and 1+) and high ND (grade 2+ and 3+) groups. Pre-operative FNA samples of each group were assessed for cytological features. RESULTS The mean age of the high ND group (n = 18) was higher than the low ND group (n = 19, P = 0.01). In FNA samples of the high ND group, 17 cases showed moderate to severe degrees of discohesiveness, but low ND cases mainly showed no or only mild discohesiveness (P < 0.001). Nine of the low ND cases displayed overlapped, cohesive cell clusters, whereas, in the high ND cases, the cells were arranged in a loose, flat and monolayered pattern (P = 0.045). Fourteen of the high ND cases had round nuclei, but oval nuclei were predominant in the low ND cases (P = 0.027). The nuclei were eccentrically located in 12 of the high ND cases but were centrally located in 14 of the low ND cases (P = 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Mucinous carcinoma with high ND may be diagnosed by the presence of discohesiveness, a flat, monolayered pattern, and round or eccentrically located nuclei. Features of ND in carcinomas in other organs, such as intracytoplasmic granules and coarse chromatin, may not be reliable cytological features of ND in MCA.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Ewing's sarcoma family of tumors (ESFTs) are characterized by chromosomal translocations that fuses EWSR1 gene and other types of ETS family genes. Among them, EWS-FLI1 is the most common transcriptional factor which regulates many genes of biological pathways leading to cell cycle, metabolic and DNA repair. EWS-FLI1 oncoprotein is an ideal therapeutic target for ESFTs whereas it turned out to be difficult to obtain direct small-molecule inhibitor of EWS-FLI1 due to lack of intrinsic enzymatic activity. Therefore, we postulate indirect inhibitors of EWS-FLI1 function that can suppress the transcriptional activity of EWS-FLI1, resulting in selectively inhibition of growth of ESFTs.
Results: To discover small molecular compounds which inhibit the cell growth in Ewing's sarcoma cells, a cell proliferation assay using Ewing's sarcoma A-673 cells harboring EWS-FLI1 fusion protein was performed. We identified compound A which inhibited the cell proliferation in A-673 and Ewing's sarcoma TC-71 cells with GI50 values of 27 nM and 25 nM, respectively. Compound A also inhibited colony formation of all some Ewing's sarcoma cells. In contrast, growth inhibition by compound A in pancreatic AsPC-1 cells which express no EWS-FLI1 was not observed at the concentration up to 10000 nM. A derivative of compound A as well as EWS-FLI1 siRNA decreased the expression of NKX2.2 and CCND1, and increased the expressions of IGFBP3, PHLDA1 and DKK1. These genes are under the downstream control of EWS-FLI1 so that compound A might down-modulate EWS-FLI1 function. We found that a series of derivatives inhibited the enzymatic activity of nucleotide biosynthesis. IC50 values of the enzyme inhibitory activities among derivatives were correlated well with GI50 values of anti-proliferative activities in A-673 cells (r = 0.86). Moreover, overexpression of the enzyme gene in A-673 cells could attenuate the anti-proliferative activities of the derivatives, suggesting that inhibition of the enzyme by compound A is involved in the down-modulation of EWS-FLI1 driven growth. Finally, using a Ewing's sarcoma xenograft mouse model, oral daily administration of the derivative at 100 mg/kg considerably inhibited the tumor growth with a minimum T/C ratio of 0.13 without body weight loss.
Conclusions: Compound A and its derivatives may be a therapeutic agent with potent antitumor activity for Ewing's sarcoma patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background Trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1), first-in-class anti-HER2 antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) is under development for the treatment of HER2−postive recurrent locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer (MBC). T-DM1 is composed of: trastuzumab; DM1, an inhibitor of tubulin polymerization derived from maytansine; and the stable MCC linker that conjugates DM1 and trastuzumab. T-DM1 has been evaluated at multiple dose levels in a phase I trial (TDM3569g): every 3 weeks (q3w) (0.3−1.8 mg/kg) and weekly (1.2−2.9 mg/kg), and in two subsequent phase II trials (TDM4258g and TDM4374g) for patients with heavily pretreated HER2−positive MBC. T-DM1 monotherapy (3.6 mg/kg q3w) has demonstrated robust clinical efficacy in these two phase II clinical studies. Dose escalation data from the TDM3569g provided the basis for this phase I study (JO22591) study, to investigate the maximal tolerated dose (MTD) in Japanese patients.
Methods This Japanese Phase I study was a single-arm, dose-escalation study in patients with HER2−positive MBC who had received prior therapies that included trastuzumab. The objective of the study was to determine the MTD of T-DM1 during Cycle 1, using the continual reassessment method, among three dose cohorts when administered as a single agent and to investigate safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of T-DM1 in patients with HER2−positive MBC. Eligibility criteria were standard for this type of study. T-DM1 was administered every 3 weeks at a dose level of 1.8 mg/kg, 2.4 mg/kg or 3.6 mg/kg. Outcomes were assessed by standard solid-tumor phase I methods. Adverse events were reported using CTCAE version 3.0, and tumor response was assessed according to RECIST version 1.0.
Results Ten patients were recruited: (1.8 mg/kg [n=1], 2.4 mg/kg [n=4], or 3.6 mg/kg [n=5]. One patient in the 2.4 mg/kg group experienced DLTs (Grade 3 AST increase and ALT increase). No other adverse events corresponding to a DLT were observed in any other patients during the DLT observation period. As a result, the MTD in Japanese MBC patients was determined to be 3.6 mg/kg q3w.
The most frequently reported adverse events, regardless of whether they were related to the study drug, were nausea, fatigue, arthralgia and pyrexia. The main changes in laboratory test values recorded were platelet count decrease, AST increase and ALT increase. Efficacy was preliminarily assessed with tumor responses, a partial response was observed in two patients. Most of the AEs were mild and manageable. There were no marked differences in any pharmacokinetic parameters for T-DM1, DM1 or total trastuzumab following administration of T-DM1 between the JO22591 study and the two Western studies (TDM3569g and TDM4258g), and no data obtained suggested any ethnic differences.
Conclusions T-DM1 monotherapy (3.6 mg/kg every 3 weeks) was well-tolerated in Japanese patients. PK and safety in Japanese patients were comparable to PK and safety in the Western population. These results support further clinical studies with T-DM1 in Japanese patients.

Abstract
In neonates, small changes in tidal volumes (V(T)) may lead to complications. Previous studies have shown a significant difference between ventilator-measured tidal volume and tidal volume delivered (actual V(T)). We evaluated the accuracy of three different ventilators to deliver small V(T) during volume-controlled ventilation. We tested Servo 300, 840 ventilator and Evita 4 Neoflow ventilators with lung models simulating normal and injured neonatal lung compliance models. Gas volume delivered from the ventilator into the test circuit (V(TV)) and actual V(T) to the test lung were measured using Ventrak respiration monitors at set V(T) (30 ml). The gas volume increase of the breathing circuit was then calculated. Tidal volumes of the SV300 and PB840 in both lung models were similar to the set V(T) and the actual tidal volumes in the injured model (20.7 ml and 19.8 ml, respectively) were significantly less than that in the normal model (27.4 ml and 23.4 ml). PB840 with circuit compliance compensation could not improve the actual V(T). V(TV) of the EV4N in the normal and the injured models (37.8 ml and 46.6 ml) were markedly increased compared with set V(T), and actual V(T) were similar to set V(T) in the normal and injured model (30.2 ml and 31.9 ml, respectively). EV4N measuring V(T) close to the lung could match actual V(T) to almost the same value as the set V(T) however the gas volume of the breathing circuit was increased. If an accurate value for the patient's actual V(T) is needed, this V(T) must be measured by a sensor located between the Y-piece and the tracheal tube.

Abstract
AIMS Benidipine, a dihydropyridine Ca(2+) channel blocker, has been reported to block T-type Ca(2+) channels; however, the mechanism underlying this effect was unclear. In this study, we characterized the mechanism responsible for this blocking activity. Furthermore, the blocking activity was compared between two enantiomers of benidipine, (S, S)- and (R, R)-benidipine. MAIN METHODS Human Ca(v)3.2 (hCa(v)3.2) T-type Ca(2+) channels stably expressed in the human embryonic kidney cell line, HEK-293, were studied in whole-cell patch-clamp recordings and Ca(2+) mobilization assay. KEY FINDINGS In whole-cell patch-clamp recordings, benidipine blocked hCa(v)3.2 T-type Ca(2+) currents elicited by depolarization to a comparable extent as efonidipine. The block was dependent on stimulation frequency and holding potential, but not test potential. Benidipine significantly shifted the steady-state inactivation curve to the hyperpolarizing direction, but had no effect on the activation curve. Benidipine prolonged the recovery from inactivation of hCa(v)3.2 T-type Ca(2+) channels without any effect on the kinetics of activation, inactivation, or deactivation. In the Ca(2+) mobilization assay, benidipine was more potent than efonidipine in blocking Ca(2+) influx through hCa(v)3.2 T-type Ca(2+) channels. (S, S)-Benidipine was more potent than (R, R)-benidipine in blocking hCa(v)3.2 T-type Ca(2+) currents, but there was no difference in blocking the Ca(2+) influx. SIGNIFICANCE We have characterized the blocking activity of benidipine against hCa(v)3.2 Ca(2+) channels and revealed the difference between the two enantiomers of benidipine. The blocking action of benidipine could be mediated by stabilizing hCa(v)3.2 Ca(2+) channels in an inactivated state.

Abstract
Prophylaxis against venous thromboembolism after elective total hip replacement is routinely recommended. Our preference has been to use mechanical prophylaxis without anticoagulant drugs. A randomised controlled trial was performed to evaluate whether the incidence of post-operative venous thromboembolism was reduced by using pharmacological anticoagulation with either fondaparinux or enoxaparin in addition to our prophylactic mechanical regimen. A total of 255 Japanese patients who underwent primary unilateral cementless total hip replacement were randomly assigned to one of three postoperative regimens, namely injection of placebo (saline), fondaparinux or enoxaparin. There were 85 patients in each group. All also received the same mechanical prophylaxis during and after the operation, regardless of their assigned group. The primary measurement of efficacy was the presence of a venous thromboembolic event by day 11, defined as deep-vein thrombosis detected by ultrasonography, documented symptomatic deep-vein thrombosis or documented symptomatic pulmonary embolism. The duration of follow-up was 12 weeks. The rate of venous thromboembolism was 7.2% with the placebo, 7.1% with fondaparinux and 6.0% with enoxaparin (p = 0.95 for the comparison of all three groups). Our study confirmed the effectiveness and safety of mechanical thromboprophylaxis without the use of anticoagulant drugs after total hip replacement in Japanese patients.

Abstract
SUMMARY The main component of the metabolic by-products of fermentation by Propionibacterium freudenreichii ET-3 is 1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoic acid (DHNA), which has a naphthoquinone skeleton, as in vitamin K2. This study showed that DHNA improved bone mass reduction with osteoporosis model mice caused by FK506. INTRODUCTION Growth of the intestinal bacterium Lactobacillus bifidus is specifically facilitated by DHNA. The present study used osteoporosis model mice to investigate the effects of DHNA on bone remodeling. METHODS FK506, an immunosuppressant, was used to prepare osteoporosis model mice. Thirty mice were divided into three groups: FK group, FK+DHNA group, and control group. In the FK group, FK506 was administered to induce bone mass reduction. In the FK-DHNA group, FK506 and DHNA were administered concurrently to observe improvements in bone mass reduction. To ascertain systemic and local effects of DHNA, we investigated systemic pathological changes in colon, kidney function and cytokine dynamics, and morphological and organic changes in bone and osteoclast dynamics as assessed by culture experiments. RESULTS Compared to the FK group without DHNA, colon damage and kidney dysfunction were milder for FK+DHNA group, and production of inflammatory cytokines (interleukin (IL)-1beta, IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha) was more suppressed. Furthermore, compared to the group without DHNA, histological analyses and radiography showed that bone resorption was suppressed for the DHNA group. Culture experiments using osteoclasts from murine bone marrow showed osteoclast suppression for the DHNA group compared to the group without DHNA. CONCLUSION These results show that DHNA has some effects for improving bone mass reduction caused by FK506.

Abstract
Aldosterone-induced activation of mineralocorticoid receptor, a member of the nuclear receptor family, results in increased tissue damage such as vascular inflammation and cardiac and perivascular fibrosis. Benidipine, a long-lasting dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker, is used for hypertension and angina. Benidipine exhibits pleiotropic pharmacological features such as renoprotective and cardioprotective effects through triple blockade of L-, N-, and T-type calcium channels. However, the mechanism of additional beneficial effects on end-organ damage is poorly understood. Here, we examined the effects of benidipine and other calcium channel blockers on aldosterone-induced mineralocorticoid receptor activation using luciferase reporter assay system. Benidipine showed more potent activity than efonidipine, amlodipine, or azelnidipine. Benidipine depressed the response to higher concentrations of aldosterone, whereas pretreatment of eplerenone, a steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist, did not. Binding studies using [(3)H] aldosterone indicated that benidipine and other calcium channel blockers competed for binding to mineralocorticoid receptor. Benidipine and other calcium channel blockers showed antagonistic activity on Ser810 to Leu mutant mineralocorticoid receptor, which is identified in patients with early-onset hypertension. On the other hand, eplerenone partially activated the mutant. Results of analysis using optical isomers of benidipine indicated that inhibitory effect of aldosterone-induced mineralocorticoid receptor activation was independent of its primary blockade of calcium channels. These results suggested that benidipine directly inhibits aldosterone-induced mineralocorticoid receptor activation, and the antagonistic activity might contribute to the drug's pleiotropic pharmacological features.

Abstract
The stability of atomic and molecular hydrogen in the vicinity of a screw dislocation in silicon has been investigated using first-principles calculations. The lowest energy configurations are obtained for H atoms located in the dislocation core, suggesting that the segregation of hydrogen is favoured in the dislocation core. It is found that a spontaneous dissociation of H(2) could occur in the dislocation core. Finally, the variation of the interaction energy between hydrogen and the dislocation core as a function of the separation distance has been calculated. There is no sizeable interaction variation for H(2). However, in the case of a single H, an inverse law has been obtained, which can be explained by the anisotropic stress field generated by the insertion of H in the silicon lattice.

Abstract
We have documented changes in expression of collagenolytic/gelatinolytic enzymes of the matrix metalloproteinase family (MMP) in healing or ulcerating corneal wounds of rat or rabbit. Correlation of our findings with specific changes in the extracellular matrix of the repair tissue suggests two different roles for the enzymes, MMP-2 and MMP-9. MMP-2 is expressed in undamaged corneal stroma where it may degrade the occasional collagen molecule that becomes damaged. After corneal wounding, expression of this enzyme is increased and much of it appears in the active form. These changes persist for at least seven months, suggesting that MMP-2 is involved in the prolonged process of collagen remodelling in the stromal repair tissue. MMP-9 is expressed in the epithelial layer of repair tissue with a timing suggesting it might participate in controlling resynthesis of the basement membrane. MMP-9 also appears to be involved in degradation of the epithelial basement membrane that precedes corneal ulceration.

Abstract
Primary pulmonary hypertension is a fatal disease that frequently becomes evident in pregnancy. The management of pregnant women with primary pulmonary hypertension poses a number of difficult problems, especially where regional anesthesia is considered to be contraindicated. A 30-year-old woman who developed primary pulmonary hypertension at 23 weeks of pregnancy was transferred to our hospital. Systolic pulmonary artery pressure and plasma brain natriuretic peptide levels were markedly elevated. Nitric oxide inhalation and prostacyclin prevented the progression of cardiac failure and reduced both plasma brain natriuretic peptide and pulmonary artery pressure. Cesarean section was performed at 32 weeks under general anesthesia. A combination of nitric oxide, prostacyclin, nitroglycerin, and dobutamine were administered during surgery. Intravenous dexmedetomidine was specifically used during emergence and recovery from anesthesia. This provided effective pain relief and hemodynamic stability. Throughout the clinical course, brain natriuretic peptide levels was monitored and used as an indicator of cardiac failure.

Abstract
Bacteremia due to Capnocytophaga sputigena occurred in a 4-year and 9-month-old Japanese girl patient with acute erythroblastic leukemia in Shinshu University Hospital, Japan. On her admission to the hospital, she had a temperature of 38.2 degrees C with canker sore. Prior to the commencement of chemotherapy, peripheral blood culture was carried out with the BacT/Alert 3D System ver. 4.00D (bioMerieux Japan Ltd., Tokyo, Japan) using both the PF and the SN bottles. At 48 hrs of incubation, the System showed the positive sign only in the anaerobic SN bottle for bacterial growth. The strain isolated from the SN bottle was morphologically, biochemically, and genetically characterized, and finally identified as Capnocytophaga sputigena. The causative Capnocytophaga sputigena isolate was found to be a beta-lactamase-producer demonstrating to possess cfxA3 gene. The gene responsible for the production of CfxA3-beta-lactamase was proved to be chromosome-encoded, by means of southern hybridization analysis. This was the first case of bacteremia caused by chromosome-encoded CfxA3-beta-lactamase-producing Capnocytophaga sputigena.

Abstract
Benidipine, a long-lasting dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker, is used for treatment of hypertension and angina. Benidipine exerts pleiotropic pharmacological features, such as renoprotective and cardioprotective effects. In pathophysiological conditions, the antidiuretic hormone aldosterone causes development of renal and cardiovascular diseases. In adrenal glomerulosa cells, aldosterone is produced in response to extracellular potassium, which is mainly mediated by T-type voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels. More recently, it has been demonstrated that benidipine inhibits T-type Ca2+ channels in addition to L-type Ca2+ channels. Therefore, effect of calcium channel blockers, including benidipine, on aldosterone production and T-type Ca2+ channels using human adrenocortical cell line NCI-H295R was investigated. Benidipine efficiently inhibited KCl-induced aldosterone production at low concentration (3 and 10 nM), with inhibitory activity more potent than other calcium channel blockers. Patch clamp analysis indicated that benidipine concentration-dependently inhibited T-type Ca2+ currents at 10, 100 and 1000 nM. As for examined calcium channel blockers, inhibitory activity for T-type Ca2+ currents was well correlated with aldosterone production. L-type specific calcium channel blockers calciseptine and nifedipine showed no effect in both assays. These results indicate that inhibition of T-type Ca2+ channels is responsible for inhibition of aldosterone production in NCI-H295R cells. Benidipine efficiently inhibited KCl-induced upregulation of 11-beta-hydroxylase mRNA and aldosterone synthase mRNA as well as KCl-induced Ca2+ influx, indicating it as the most likely inhibition mechanism. Benidipine partially inhibited angiotensin II-induced aldosterone production, plus showed additive effects when used in combination with the angiotensin II type I receptor blocker valsartan. Benidipine also partially inhibited angiotensin II-induced upregulation of the above mRNAs and Ca2+ influx inhibitory activities of benidipine for aldosterone production. T-type Ca2+ channels may contribute to additional benefits of this drug for treating renal and cardiovascular diseases, beyond its primary anti-hypertensive effects from blocking L-type Ca2+ channels.

Abstract
We have investigated the ultrafast spin and charge dynamics in the course of a photoinduced phase transition from an insulator with short-range charge order and orbital order (OO) to a ferromagnetic metal in perovskite-type Gd0.55Sr0.45MnO3. Transient reflectivity changes suggest that the metallic state is formed just after the photoirradiation and decays within approximately 1 ps. The magnetization, however, increases with the time constant of 0.5 ps and decays in approximately 10 ps. The relatively slow increase of the magnetization is attributable to the magnetic-field-induced alignment of ferromagnetic domains in the initially produced metallic state and its slow decay to the partial recovery of the OO.

Abstract
Differential cross sections for transitions of known weak strength were measured with the (3He, t) reaction at 420 MeV on targets of 12C, 13C, 18O, 26Mg, 58Ni, 60Ni, 90Zr, 118Sn, 120Sn, and 208Pb. Using these data, it is shown that the proportionalities between strengths and cross sections for this probe follow simple trends as a function of mass number. These trends can be used to confidently determine Gamow-Teller strength distributions in nuclei for which the proportionality cannot be calibrated via beta-decay strengths. Although theoretical calculations in the distorted-wave Born approximation overestimate the data, they allow one to understand the main experimental features and to predict deviations from the simple trends observed in some of the transitions.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is associated with exacerbation of renal injuries in hypertension. In clinical studies benidipine hydrochloride (benidipine), a dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker with antioxidant activity, reduced oxidative stress. However, the mechanism of suppression of oxidative stress remains to be fully characterized. Reactive oxygen species production by polymorphonuclear leukocyte plays important pathological roles in hypertension. Therefore, we examined the effects of benidipine both on reactive oxygen species production of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes and oxidative stress of an animal model. Human peripheral polymorphonuclear leukocytes or polymorphonuclear leukocyte-like differentiated HL-60 cells were used to examine effects of benidipine (0.1-30 microM) on formyl-Met-Leu-Phe-induced reactive oxygen species production, calcium mobilization, NADPH oxidase activation and phosphorylation of protein kinase C substrates. High-salt (8% NaCl) loaded stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats were treated with or without benidipine (1, 3, 10 mg/kg/day) for 2 weeks, and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances, a plasma oxidative stress marker, and renal expression of oxidative stress-induced genes were measured. Benidipine concentration-dependently suppressed formyl-Met-Leu-Phe-induced reactive oxygen species production in polymorphonuclear leukocytes more potently than other calcium channel blockers such as amlodipine, azelnidipine, nitrendipine and nifedipine. Benidipine partially inhibited all of intracellular Ca(2+) elevation, protein kinase C activation and NADPH oxidase activation. Salt loading in stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats augmented plasma thiobarbituric acid reactive substances levels; renal dysfunction; and renal expression of transforming growth factor-beta, collagen I and collagen III mRNAs; which were attenuated by benidipine treatment. These results indicate that benidipine prevents the polymorphonuclear leukocyte-derived reactive oxygen species production, which is due at least in part to its antioxidant action and inhibition of Ca(2+)/protein kinase C/NADPH oxidase signaling. The attenuation of reactive oxygen species production might contribute to the drug's reduction of oxidative stress and renal injuries in hypertension.

Abstract
A 48-year-old man with no known risk factor for cerebrovascular disease, other than cigarette smoking, experienced the sudden onset of a mixed lateral and medial medullary syndrome. Computed tomography scan failed to show any definite abnormality. Magnetic resonance imaging scans revealed hemorrhage restricted to the left dorsolateral medulla. Angiography showed abnormal arteries originating from the left vertebral artery with small niduses located on the surface of the medulla and contralateral cerebellum. Small brain-stem hemorrhages are a contraindication to thrombolytic or anticoagulant therapy, and therefore must be recognized in the acute stage.

Abstract
We present a series of 30 uncemented total hip replacements performed between June 1985 and January 2002 with a mean follow-up of seven years (5 to 20) in 27 patients who had previously undergone a valgus intertrochanteric osteotomy. No further osteotomy was undertaken to enable hip replacement. We used a number of uncemented modular or monoblock femoral components, acetabular components and bearings. The patients were followed up clinically and radiologically. We report 100% survival of the femoral component. One acetabular component was revised at five years post-implantation for aseptic loosening. We noted cortical hypertrophy around the tip of the monoblock stems in six patients. We believe that modular femoral components should be used when undertaking total hip replacement in patients who have previously undergone valgus femoral osteotomy.

Abstract
The antiatherosclerotic effects of the dihydropyridine-type calcium channel blocker, benidipine hydrochloride (benidipine), and 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase inhibitor, pravastatin sodium (pravastatin), were compared in hypercholesterolemic rabbits. Male, New Zealand white rabbits were fed a 0.5% cholesterol diet. Pravastatin (10 mg/kg) or benidipine (10 mg/kg) was orally administered once daily after start of feeding. After 8 weeks of cholesterol feeding, serum cholesterol was increased and endothelial function of thoracic aorta was impaired. Pravastatin prevented elevation of serum cholesterol and aortic tunica intima hyperplasia. Although benidipine had little effect on serum cholesterol, it significantly inhibited aortic tunica intima hyperplasia and impairment of endothelial function. Expression levels of the vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) and lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor-1 (LOX-1) mRNA in aorta of hypercholesterolemic rabbit were higher than those of normal rabbit. Benidipine significantly prevented upregulation of VCAM-1 mRNA expression and showed a tendency to inhibit elevation of LOX-1 mRNA expression. Pravastatin significantly prevented upregulation of both VCAM-1 and LOX-1 mRNA expression. The results demonstrate that pravastatin inhibits increase of serum cholesterol and vascular dysfunction in hypercholesterolemic rabbit. Benidipine is effective in preventing vascular hyperplasia without altering serum cholesterol levels and this may be due to inhibition of expression of VCAM-1.

Abstract
Chronic hypertension shifts cerebral blood flow (CBF) autoregulation towards higher blood pressure. We examined whether or not benidipine, a long-lasting dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker (CCB), improves the CBF autoregulation in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs). CBF was analyzed by laser-Doppler flowmetry during stepwise hypotension by controlled bleeding. The lower limit of CBF autoregulation was calculated as the mean arterial blood pressure at which CBF decreased by 10% of the baseline. Mean arterial blood pressure and cerebral vascular resistance in SHRs were higher than those in normotensive Wistar rats. Oral administration of benidipine (3 mg/kg) for 8 d lowered the mean arterial blood pressure and cerebral vascular resistance, which were equivalent to the effects of amlodipine (3 mg/kg), another CCB, or candesartan (1 mg/kg), an Angiotensin II type-1 receptor blocker. The lower limit of CBF autoregulation in SHRs (142+/-4 mmHg) was significantly shifted to a higher-pressure level compared with Wistar rats (59+/-2 mmHg). The lower limit of CBF autoregulation was significantly lower in the benidipine-treated group (91+/-4 mmHg) than that in the control SHRs, and similar to that of the amlodipine group (97+/-6 mmHg). Benidipine reduced the lower limit of CBF autoregulation more effectively than candesartan (109+/-4 mmHg). In conclusion, benidipine shifted the limit of CBF autoregulation towards lower blood pressure in SHRs under hypotensive conditions by hemorrhage. These results suggest that benidipine may be useful for the treatment of hypertensive patients with the elderly or cerebrovascular disorders, in whom autoregulation of CBF is impaired.
