Abstract
BACKGROUND The prevalence, clinical features, and long-term outcome of patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE ACS) associated with coronary spasm are not fully investigated. METHODS AND RESULTS This observational multicenter study enrolled 1601 consecutive patients with suspected NSTE-ACS who underwent cardiac catheterization between January 2001 and December 2010. A culprit lesion was found in 1152 (72%) patients. In patients without a culprit lesion, the acetylcholine provocation test was performed in 221 patients and was positive in 175 patients. In the other patients, coronary spasm was verified in 145 patients during spontaneous attack. Spasm-induced NSTE-ACS was diagnosed in 320 (20%) patients. Multivariable analysis identified age <70 years (odds ratio [OR] 2.19, 95% CI 1.58 to 3.04), estimated glomerular filtration rate >60 mL/min per 1.73 m(2) (OR 1.72, 95% CI 1.16 to 2.56), and lack of hypertension (OR 2.55, 95% CI 1.90 to 3.41), dyslipidemia (OR 2.76, 95% CI 2.05 to 3.73), diabetes mellitus (OR 2.49, 95% CI 1.78 to 3.48), previous myocardial infarction (OR 5.37, 95% CI 2.89 to 10.0), and elevated cardiac biomarkers (OR 2.84, 95% CI 2.11 to 3.83) as significant correlates of spasm-induced NSTE-ACS (P<0.01 for all variables). Transient ST-segment elevation during spontaneous attack (variant angina) was observed in 119 patients with spasm-induced NSTE-ACS. Variant angina was more common in nondyslipidemic men among patients with spasm-induced NSTE-ACS. CONCLUSIONS The study showed frequent involvement of coronary spasm in the pathogenesis of NSTE-ACS. Variant angina was observed in one third of patients with spasm-induced NSTE-ACS. Coronary spasm should be considered even in patients with less coronary risk factors and nonobstructive coronary arteries.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to examine the impact of CYP2C19 genotype on clinical outcome in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients with or without diabetes mellitus (DM). METHODS CYP2C19 polymorphism and DM are associated with increased risk of cardiovascular events during antiplatelet therapy following stent implantation. Platelet reactivity during clopidogrel therapy and CYP2C19 polymorphism were measured in 519 CAD patients (males 70%, age 69 years) treated with stent placement. Patients were divided into two groups; DM (n=249), and non-DM (n=270), and clinical events were evaluated according to the carrier state, which included at least one CYP2C19 loss-of-function allele. RESULTS The level of platelet reactivity and incidence of cardiovascular events were significantly different between Carriers and non-Carriers of the non-DM (platelet reactivity: 4501+/-1668 versus 3691+/-1714AU min, P<0.01; events, 32/178 versus 2/92, P<0.01, respectively), however, there was no difference in clinical outcome in the DM group (events, 34/168 versus 14/81, respectively, P=0.57). Multivariate analysis identified CYP2C19 loss-of-function allele carriage as an independent predictor of cardiovascular events in non-DM, but not in DM (non-DM, HR 7.180, 95% CI, 1.701 to 30.298, P=0.007; DM, HR 1.374, 95% CI, 0.394 to 4.792, P=0.618). CONCLUSION The impact of CYP2C19 polymorphism on clinical outcome seems to be more significant in non-DM compared with DM in patients with coronary stents.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The present study used iMap IVUS system to compare neointimal tissue components between DES and bare-metal stents (BMSs). BACKGROUND Drug-eluting stents (DESs) can cause impaired arterial healing, which constitutes the most important pathological substrate underlying late DES thrombosis. Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-based tissue characterization allows for the in vivo identification of neointimal tissue components. METHODS AND RESULTS Follow-up IVUS data after coronary stenting (9.8 ± 9.4 months from index procedures) was obtained from consecutive 61 lesions (34 in DES, 27 in BMS). The iMap tissue components (fibrotic, lipidic, necrotic, and calcified) were measured in every recorded frame and expressed as percentages of mean neointimal cross-sectional area for the stented segment. Patients' characteristics were comparable between DES and BMS. When compared with BMSs, smaller (2.9 ± 0.4 mm vs. 3.2 ± 0.4 mm, P = 0.004) and longer (34 ± 18 mm vs. 26 ± 14 mm, P = 0.03) DESs were implanted. When compared with BMS group, minimum lumen area at follow-up was significantly greater in DES group (3.9 ± 1.8 mm(2) vs. 3.1 ± 1.5 mm(2) , P < 0.04), mainly attributable to suppression of neointimal hyperplasia (1.7 ± 0.8 mm(2) vs. 3.1 ± 1.5 mm(2) , P < 0.0001). The iMap analyses showed that neointima after DES placement was composed of smaller fibrotic component (67 ± 8% vs. 78 ± 7%, P < 0.0001), larger necrotic (14 ± 4% vs. 9 ± 3%, P < 0.0001) and calcified (15 ± 6% vs. 7 ± 4%, P < 0.0001) components compared with BMS. Logistic regression analysis showed that only intra-DES neointima was a significant predictor of necrotic neointima at follow-up. CONCLUSIONS DES implantation would be associated with iMap-derived necrotic and less-fibrotic neointimal formation. In vivo iMap evaluation of neointimal tissue may provide useful information in detecting impaired healing after stenting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to examine the effect of proton-pump inhibitor (PPI) on clinical outcomes in Japanese patients who undergo coronary stent implantation. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 1,270 patients (males 915, 69 years) were enrolled and dual antiplatelet therapy of aspirin and a thienopyridine derivative was prescribed (clopidogrel 630, ticlopidine 640). Patients were divided into 2 groups treated with or without PPI. PPI was administered in 331 cases (26%), and non-PPI in 939 (74%). There were no significant differences in cardiovascular death (PPI vs. non-PPI: 5 vs. 11 cases), nonfatal myocardial infarction (3 vs. 5), and stroke (3 vs. 16) between PPI and non-PPI groups, but the ratio of gastrointestinal events had a higher tendency in non-PPI group compared with PPI group (1 vs. 17, P=0.08). In subgroup analysis of patients taking clopidogrel, or patients with acute coronary syndrome, there was no significant difference in the ratio of cardiovascular events (7 vs. 16, 6 vs. 17, NS). The non-PPI group had a tendency of an increased risk of gastrointestinal events compared with the PPI group (0 vs. 9, P=0.06; 1 vs. 7, P=0.14). CONCLUSIONS In contrast to the negative drug interaction of PPI reported elsewhere, in the present study the intake of PPI was not associated with an increased risk for adverse clinical outcomes in patients treated with stents.

Abstract
A series of dog studies were performed to examine the in vitro/in vivo relationship of drug release behavior of the newly developed colon-targeted delivery capsule (CTDC). The four kinds of CTDCs containing theophylline, each of which has a different in vitro dissolution lag time, were orally administered to four beagle dogs under fasted condition, and the onset times of drug absorption were compared. The CTDC with longer in vitro lag time had a later onset of drug absorption. It was also found that the time difference between the gastric emptying and the onset of drug absorption was almost equal to the in vitro dissolution lag time of the capsule, suggesting a similar performance of CTDC in the gastrointestinal tract. From the comparison to the absorption behavior of the colon arrival marker, i.e. sulfasalazine, it was proved that the CTDC with the lag time of 3 h can deliver the drug directly to the colon. This result implied that the CTDC can be used as a non-invasive means for assessing the regional absorbability of drugs in the gastrointestinal tract. To evaluate the absorbability of drugs in the colon, three model drugs, theophylline (THEO), acetaminophen (ACET), and phenylpropanolamine hydrochloride (PPA) were directly delivered to the colons of beagle dogs using the CTDC with the lag time of about 3 h. The obtained relative bioavailabilities to the solution form were as high as 94.2%, 71.0%, and 91.5% for THEO, ACET and PPA, respectively, suggesting that the colonic absorbability of those drugs is essentially good.

Abstract
The colon-targeted delivery capsule (CTDC), a new capsule-type dosage form for colonic delivery of drugs, was investigated for the in vivo drug release behavior in dogs. A CTDC formulation with prednisolone as a model drug and theophylline as a marker substance for gastric emptying was prepared for this study. The enteric-coated capsule (ECC) formulation with a similar composition was also prepared as the reference. Both formulations were administered to four beagle dogs, and the drug release behavior thereof was compared. Under fasted condition, ECC released prednisolone and theophylline at the same time within 1 h after the gastric emptying. On the other hand the CTDC released prednisolone at 3.2 h after the gastric emptying. Such release behavior of CTDC was approximately consistent with the results obtained from the in vitro dissolution study, suggesting that the pH-sensing and timed-release functions imparted to the CTDC can work in the gastrointestinal tract of dogs as programmed. Under non-fasted condition, however, the gastric emptying of CTDC was found to be considerably delayed, up to about 14 h, and in this case the in vivo dissolution lag time of prednisolone at the small intestine was shortened to about 1.5 h.

Abstract
To clarify the mechanism of the species difference in the metabolism of bisoprolol enantiomers, in vitro metabolic studies were performed using dog liver microsomes and human cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoforms. The O-deisopropylation of bisoprolol enantiomers showed biphasic kinetics in dog liver microsomes. The intrinsic clearance (Vmax/Km) for O-deisopropylation of R(+)-bisoprolol was higher than S(-)-isomer in both high-affinity and low-affinity components. The R/S ratio of the intrinsic clearance in high- and low-affinity components was 1.34 and 1.65, respectively. The inhibition studies in dog liver microsomes using CYP isoform-selective inhibitors indicated that the O-deisopropylation of both bisoprolol enantiomers was mediated via the CYP2D and CYP3A subfamily, and suggested that high-affinity oxidation was dependent on CYP2D. The kinds of CYP subfamilies in dogs, which contribute to the metabolism of bisoprolol enantiomers, were the same as those in humans. The intrinsic clearance for O-deisopropylation of R(+)bisoprolol by human recombinant CYP2D6 was also different from that of S(-)-enantiomers (R/S:1.50). However, unlike the dog microsomes, the intrinsic clearance by the human recombinant CYP3A4 did not show a stereoselective difference. Therefore, the species difference in the R/S ratio of metabolic clearance for the oxidation of bisoprolol enantiomers (dog > human) is mainly due to the species difference in the stereoselectivity of one of the cytochrome P450 subfamilies (CYP3A).

Abstract
Colonic drug delivery is intended for local or systemic therapies. The lack of predictive in vitro or animal model leads to considerable time delays in colonic product development. The objective of this scintigraphic study was to provide "proof of concept" for a novel capsule-type colonic delivery system (Colon-Targeted Delivery Capsule) in healthy volunteers. The human data validates the design concept behind the release mechanism, in that capsule disintegration, and hence drug release, did not start until 5 h after gastric emptying, irrespective of whether the product was administered to fasted or fed subjects. However, the potential for prolonged gastric residence for large enteric coated products intended for intestinal targeting was also observed; overall, the study provides a focus for subsequent product development and highlights the role of scintigraphy in dynamically visualizing the drug delivery process.

Abstract
The plasma concentrations and urinary excretions of bisoprolol enantiomers in four Japanese male healthy volunteers after a single oral administration of 20 mg of racemic bisoprolol were evaluated. The AUC(infinity) and elimination half-life of (S)-(-)-bisoprolol were slightly larger than those of (R)-(+)-bisoprolol in all subjects. The metabolic clearance of (R)-(+)-bisoprolol was significantly (P < 0.05) larger than that of (S)-(-)-bisoprolol (S/R ratio: 0.79+/-0.03), although the difference was small. In contrast, no stereoselective in vitro protein binding of bisoprolol in human plasma was found. An in vitro metabolic study using recombinant human cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoforms indicated that oxidation of both bisoprolol enantiomers was catalyzed by the two isoforms, CYP2D6 and CYP3A4. CYP2D6 metabolized bisoprolol stereoselectively (R > S), whereas the metabolism of bisoprolol by CYP3A4 was not stereoselective. The S/R ratio of the mean clearance due to renal tubular secretion was 0.68, indicating a moderate degree of stereoselective renal tubular secretion. These findings taken together suggest that the small differences in the pharmacokinetics between (S)-(-)- and (R)-(+)-bisoprolol are mainly due to the stereoselectivity in the intrinsic metabolic clearance by CYP2D6 and renal tubular secretion.

Abstract
A sensitive and rapid high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method was developed and used for the simultaneous determination of bilirubin and biliverdin in pericardial fluid samples collected from broilers at a poultry inspection site. A photodiode array detector distinguishing the bilirubin (UV 450 nm) and biliverdin (365 nm) was used as an analytical detector for HPLC system. An internal-surface reversed-phase silica support column was used, and the mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile: 0.5 M Tris HCl buffer (20:80, pH 7.2). Bilirubin was detected from all of the jaundiced pericardial fluid samples, and a small amount of biliverdin was detected with bilirubin in some samples. These jaundiced broilers had hepatic or bile duct lesions similar to those found in edible animals. From these results, a working definition of jaundiced broilers for poultry inspection sites was suggested: bilirubin is detectable from pericardial fluid and the carcass is in a state of yellow color change.

Abstract
The stereoselective pharmacokinetics of bisoprolol, a highly beta 1-selective adrenoceptor blocking agent, was studied in dogs. After intravenous and oral administration of the racemate, there was a difference in the plasma concentration between S(-)- and R(+)-bisoprolol. The area under the curve (AUC) of concentration versus time of S(-)-bisoprolol was approximately 1.5 times higher than that of R(+)-bisoprolol and the elimination half-life of S(-)-bisoprolol was approximately 1.4 times longer than that of R(+)-bisoprolol. However, no differences were observed in the volume of distribution, absolute bioavailability, and renal clearance between the two enantiomers. The plasma protein binding of S(-)-bisoprolol was also the same as that of the R(-)-isomer. No chiral inversion or enantiomer-enantiomer interaction was observed, when enantiomers were solely administered via the intravenous route. The comparison of the oxidative metabolic rate of two enantiomers using dog liver microsomes demonstrated that the metabolite was more slowly formed from S(-)- than from R(+)-bisoprolol. Consequently, we concluded that the stereoselective difference in the metabolic clearance between S(-)- and R(+)-bisoprolol caused the difference in the disposition of bisoprolol enantiomers.

Abstract
A malignant aortic body tumor was observed in a 5-year-old female Holstein cow. The neoplastic mass, of 22 x 17 x 15 cm in size, was located at the base of the left atrium, having irregular lobular structures. The tumor cells had slightly eosinophilic cytoplasm, and a round or oval nucleus. Metastasis was only present in the premediastinal lymph node. The tumor cells exhibited intense immunoreactivity for neuron-specific enolase (NSE) and synaptophysin, and were moderately positive for chromogranin A. Electronmicroscopy revealed membrane-limited granules in the cytoplasm. The cultured cells were spindle in shape, and having projectional cytoplasm. They were intensely positive for NSE, synaptophysin, chromogranin A, and neurofilament (200 kD). Consequently, this case was diagnosed as a malignant aortic body tumor from the neuroecrodermal origin.

Abstract
We investigated the usefulness and efficiency of the co-grinding method with D-mannitol to improve the bioavailability of a sparingly water-soluble drug, (+/-)-5-[[2-(2-naphthalenylmethyl)-5-benzoxazolyl]methyl]-2, 4-thiazolidinedione (174), and compared it with those of the single-grinding method. The co-ground mixtures in drug/carrier weight ratios up to 1:5 gave fine particle sizes of less than about 3 microns, which showed a marked increase in the dissolution rate with reduction of particle size, compared with the single-ground powder, even with a similar particle size. The oral bioavailability study of co-ground powders in beagle dogs exhibited a dramatic increase, as did the dissolution rate, according to finer particle size. Finally, complete bioavailability was obtained at the finest particle size of 1.2 microns (drug/carrier ratio of 1:5, w/w) as was a solution of the drug. Bioavailability had a good linear correlation with the dissolution rate. These findings suggested that the co-grinding method with D-mannitol dramatically increased the available surface area, caused by a reduction of particle size, which not only accelerated the dissolution rate but also resulted in greater enhancement of the bioavailability of 174.

Abstract
A rapid method was developed to analyze delta-bilirubin (B delta), diconjugated bilirubin (DCB), monoconjugated bilirubin (MCB), and unconjugated bilirubin (Bu) by direct injection of sera using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with an internal-surface reversed-phase silica support (ISRP) column. Sharp bilirubin peaks were obtained using a simple mobile phase of acetonitrile: 0.5 M Tris-HCl buffer (20:80, v/v, pH 7.2). A variable-wavelength detector set at 450 nm, 0.01 absorbance unit full scale (AUFS), and a recorder set at 4 mm/min were used for detection. Peaks for B delta, DCB, MCB and Bu appeared at 4.4, 6.4, 9.2 and 14.5 min, respectively, in human serum from subject with obstructive jaundice which was used as a bilirubin standard throughout this experiment. The mean recovery rate after direct addition of Bu in swine serum was 91.9% and that of DCB was 95.9%. When sera from icteric cattle, pigs and horses were analyzed using the direct injection technique, four bilirubin peaks were obtained and there was reliable correlation between the sum of the bilirubin peak heights observed on HPLC and the total bilirubin value measured by a standard reference procedure.

Abstract
To improve the bioavailability of the sparingly water-soluble drug, 1-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-2,3-bis(methoxycarbonyl)-4-hydroxy-6,7,8- trimethoxynaphthalene (TA-7552), the usefulness of the co-grinding method with D-mannitol was investigated. The co-grinding was performed at various weight ratios of TA-7552 and D-mannitol using a ball mill. The particle size was markedly reduced with increasing amount of D-mannitol. A mixture ratio greater than or equal to 1:3 of the drug and D-mannitol produced submicron-sized particles. In dogs, bioavailability increased with increasing amount of D-mannitol. The 1:9 co-ground mixture gave complete absorption, as did a lecithin solution of the drug. Even co-ground powders with lower amounts of D-mannitol provided relatively high bioavailability in comparison with ground drug powder alone of a similar particle size. Further, pharmacological examination using rats indicated that the inhibition of cholesterol absorption was intestified with the reduction of particle size. These findings suggest that the co-grinding method with D-mannitol is useful for enhancing the bioavailability and pharmacological effectiveness of this sparingly water-soluble drug.

Abstract
A radioimmunoassay (RIA) was investigated for the determination of imidapril and its active metabolite, imidaprilat, in human plasma and urine. Imidapril is a new angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor and an oral prodrug of imidaprilat. Imidapril was determined after conversion to imidaprilat with esterase. Antiserum was raised in rabbits against the p-amino derivative of imidaprilat conjugated to bovine serum albumin. Radioligand was prepared by iodination (125I) of the p-hydroxybenzoylamino derivative of imidaprilat. Cross-reactivities of anti-imidaprilat antiserum for imidapril, its metabolites and several cardiovascular drugs were low. The calibration range was 0.1-100 ng ml-1 using a 100 microliters of human plasma of urine. Intra- and inter-day variations of imidaprilat assay in plasma were 2.0-7.9 and 4.1-6.2%, respectively, and intra- and inter-day variations of imidapril assay in plasma were 5.4-10.7 and 7.9-18.1%, respectively. The variations of the assay in urine were a little smaller than those in plasma. The recovery of imidaprilat and imidapril spiked in plasma or urine samples was approximately 100%. A good correlation between RIA and high-performance liquid chromatograpy was observed for both plasma and urine samples. Furthermore, this method was applied to the determination of imidaprilat and imidapril in human plasma and urine samples, for the evaluation of the pharmacokinetics of imidapril in humans. From the results, it was demonstrated that the developed RIA was useful for the determination of imidaprilat and imidapril in human plasma and urine, and was applicable to pharmacokinetic studies in humans.

Abstract
In order to obtain a rational explanation and analytical method of the unique pharmacokinetic behaviors of imidapril and imidaprilat in human, a new pharmacokinetic model was designed by introducing a saturable-reversible angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE)-imidaprilat binding process and a linear imidapril-imidaprilat conversion process. According to the new model, six differential equations were given which considered the mass balance of both compounds in each component. Various pharmacokinetic parameters were estimated by the simultaneous curve fitting method using the plasma concentration data and the urinary excretion data of imidapril and imidaprilat in a multiple dosing study of healthy human volunteers. To validate the value of each parameter, this pharmacokinetic model was also applied to analyze the various plasma concentration data of both compounds in the single dosing studies with four different dosages, 2.5,5, 10, and 20 mg. Excellent curve fitting was obtained in every case, suggesting that the proposed pharmacokinetic model is applicable for predicting the plasma concentrations of imidapril and imidaprilat under various dosage conditions of clinical use.

Abstract
A 53-year-old man underwent chemotherapy (CDDP, VDS, MMC) for treatment of lung cancer. He was given 125 micrograms/m2 of GM-CSF subcutaneously every day for 8 consecutive days, in order to prevent neutropenia. Three days after starting GM-CSF therapy, marked eosinophilia in peripheral blood was observed. The maximum eosinophil count was 89% of leukocytes. Nine days after stopping the treatment with GM-CSF, the number of eosinophils had normalized spontaneously. There were no clinical symptoms except for slight fever, up to 37.5 degrees C. Moreover, there was no relationship between the number of eosinophils and the serum levels of cytokines (IL-3, IL-5, GM-CSF), although we observed minimal but significant elevation of serum ECP level. This case indicates that GM-CSF may induce marked eosinophilia rather than widely stimulating granulocytes and monocytes.

Abstract
A sensitive, stereoselective high-performance liquid chromatographic method with fluorescence detection for the measurement of bisoprolol enantiomers in human plasma and urine has been developed. Bisoprolol was extracted at alkaline pH with chloroform, followed by solid-phase extraction. The effluent was evaporated, and the reconstituted residue was chromatographed on a Chiralcel OD column with a mobile phase of hexane-2-propanol (10:0.9, v/v) containing 0.01% (v/v) diethylamine. Within the plasma and urine enantiomeric concentration ranges of 5-100 ng/ml and 25-1250 ng/ml, respectively, a linear relationship was obtained between the peak-height ratios and the corresponding concentrations. The limit of quantitation, defined as three times the baseline noise, was 2 ng/ml for each enantiomer in plasma. A preliminary pharmacokinetic study was undertaken in three healthy male volunteers following an oral dose of 5 mg of racemic bisoprolol. The results confirm that this assay is suitable for pharmacokinetic studies of bisoprolol enantiomers in humans following oral administration of the therapeutic dose.

Abstract
A method for the simultaneous determination of imidapril and its active metabolite in human plasma and urine has been developed using high-performance liquid chromatography with a fluorescent labelling reagent, 9-anthryldiazomethane. Imidapril and its active metabolite were extracted from human plasma and urine using a solid-phase extraction cartridge (Bond Elut C18). Two compounds in the eluate were derivatized with 9-anthryldiazomethane and purified with a solid-phase extraction cartridge (Bond Elut SI). The derivatives were analysed using high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorometry. The detection limits of imidapril and its active metabolite were 0.2 ng/ml in plasma and 10 ng/ml in urine. This method could be applied to the pharmacokinetic study of imidapril.

Abstract
Each of 36 patients who underwent tracheotomy for removal of malignant or benign tumors or for treatment of pneumothorax was infused with 2 g of aspoxicillin (ASPC, Doyle injection) intravenously over 1-hour period. ASPC concentrations determined at 1 postoperative time-point in tissues of the lung and trachea and in serum of each patient were analyzed pharmacokinetically to elucidate the transfer of ASPC to the thoracic tissues. The preventive effect of ASPC against postoperative infections was also investigated in 39 tracheotomy patients. 1. The analysis of ASPC concentrations in 36 patients with tracheotomy gave the following results; 1) The peak blood level (about 80 micrograms/ml) was attained at the end of infusion. The serum level then decreased with time to below about 10 micrograms/ml at 6 hours after the start of infusion, with an elimination half-life of about 1.4 hours, which was comparable to that in healthy adults. 2) Peak levels in the lung and tracheal tissues were achieved at about 30 minutes after the start of infusion, at levels of about 30 and 40 micrograms/g, respectively, which decreased to about 5 micrograms/g in both tissues at 6 hours after the start of infusion. 2. Thirty nine patients who were treated with ASPC before operation were examined for the preventive effect of ASPC against postoperative infections for 1 week after operation. No postoperative infection was noted in any patients and ASPC was found to be useful for prevention of postoperative infections. 3. No side effects or abnormal laboratory findings were noted in any patients. Based on the results of the transfer into the tissues of respiratory organs and preventive effect against postoperative infections, we have concluded that ASPC is useful for prevention of infections after thoracic operation.

Abstract
To evaluate oral mucosal absorption of drugs in dogs, a newly designed in situ perfusion system with a circulating perfusion chamber was developed. The utility of the perfusion system was investigated by using three drugs: salicylic acid (SA), sulfadimethoxine (SM), and diltiazem (DIL). The oral mucosal absorption of the drugs could be adequately described by first-order rate processes. The absorption rate was independent of the amount of un-ionized drug, which varied with the pH of the solution. The absorption of SA was similar for various oral mucosal sites and for repeated experiments using the same site. Pharmacokinetic analysis for the plasma or medium concentration of SA after perfusion showed that SA was absorbed at the rate constant of 0.071 h-1, and that approximately 70% of SA absorbed from oral mucosa was transferred to the circulating blood.

Abstract
A case of long-term survival of a female patient with complicated diffuse metastatic leptomeningeal carcinomatosis (DMLC) secondary to lung cancer is reported. A 36-year-old woman, hospitalized with a chief complaint of headache and unproductive cough, was diagnosed as having primary lung adenocarcinoma (T4N1M1 oss) and was given systemic chemotherapy. Although progressive deterioration of her headache continued, repeated neurological examination, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) examination, and cranial CT scans failed to show evidence of metastasis to the central nervous system, and the only finding suggesting CNS involvement was an elevated CEA level in CSF. Later in the course of her treatment, the patient suddenly lost her vision and subsequently consciousness due to acute increased intracranial pressure, and emergency ventricular drainage was performed for therapeutic and diagnostic purposes. Malignant cells were found in CSF obtained from a ventricular drainage and she was treated successfully by systemic and intrathecal chemotherapeutic agents. She was discharged after a ventriculoperitoneal shunt operation for hydrocephalus; a double-dome reservoir was used for continuous intrathecal administration of the anticancer drugs, and a shunt filter was located in the tube to prevent the dissemination of cancer cells. In addition to methotrexate and cytosine arabinoside, ACNU and interleukin-2 were administered intrathecally without serious adverse effects, but no apparent therapeutic effects were noted either. She survived over 2 years after DMLC was first diagnosed. At autopsy DMLC secondary to lung adenocarcinoma was confirmed, but no evidence of leukoencephalopathy due to aggressive intrathecal chemotherapy was found. Current therapy for patients with DMLC and its clinical problems are discussed in relation to our experience in this case.

Abstract
The role of alpha-adrenoceptors in asthma is still unclear. However, several studies have shown bronchodilatation after single doses of different alpha-adrenoceptor antagonists in patient's with asthma. The clinical efficacy of midaglizole, a new selective alpha 2 blocker was demonstrated by a more recent investigation. The present investigation was carried out to examine the effects of midaglizole on isolated airway smooth muscle obtained from humans and guinea pigs. Human bronchial smooth muscle was relaxed in a dose-dependent manner by midaglizole. EC50, molar concentration of midaglizole required to produce 50% reversal of carbachol-induced pre-contraction was (6.0 +/- 0.19) X 10(-5) M. Isoproterenol (5 X 10(-10) M) and midaglizole (3 X 10(-5) M) produced 30.0 +/- 9.5% and 40.8 +/- 7.0% of maximal relaxation, respectively. However, they produced almost 100% of maximal relaxation when used together. Isoproterenol, in combination with midaglizole, was associated with a significant increase of human bronchial relaxation as compared to either of the drugs singly. The same findings were obtained when the drugs were used on the guinea pig trachea. Midaglizole had no effect on the binding of the radiolabeled beta adrenergic antagonist [3H] dihydroalprenolol to particulates prepared from the lung. Propranolol did not inhibit the relaxant effect of midaglizole on airway smooth muscle. These results suggest that midaglizole may be effective for the treatment of asthma.

Abstract
Deuterium oxide (D2O), which is known to stimulate microtubule aggregation, enhanced the IgE-mediated 45Ca2+ influx, (14C)-arachidonic acid and histamine release in rat basophilic leukemia cells (RBL-2H3) in the same dose-dependent manner (up to 90% (v/v]. We compared the interaction between D2O and a variety of groups of pharmacological agents. A microtubule depolymerizing agent, demecolcine, which inhibited the IgE-mediated (14C)-arachidonic acid and histamine release without affecting 45Ca2+ influx, was counteracted by 45% D2O. Taxol, a microtubule stabilizing agent, which had an inhibitory effect on the above three steps, was also reversed by 45% D2O. These results would support the previous data on the interaction between D2O and microtubules and would further suggest that the status of microtubule aggregation may be related to the secretory process. Calmodulin inhibitors (W-7, trifluoperazine) blocked the IgE-mediated 45Ca2+ influx, (14C)-arachidonic acid and histamine release in the same dose-dependent manner, but were counteracted by 45% D2O. In contrast, the effects of proteinase inhibitors (TPCK, TLCK), an adenylate cyclase inhibitor (ddAdo), a phosphodiesterase inhibitor (aminophylline), a phospholipid methylation inhibitor (DZA + Hcy) and microfilament blockers (cytochalasin B and D) were not counteracted by 45% D2O. These results would suggest that D2O may be associated with calmodulin directly or indirectly possibly through some relationship between calmodulin and microtubules.

Abstract
The hypotensive action of diltiazem by oral administration to conscious renal hypertensive dogs (one kidney, one figure 8) was studied and the effect was compared with that of nifedipine. Diltiazem decreased mean blood pressure 10-20 mmHg at doses of 1-4 mg/kg. The same doses of nifedipine exhibited hypotensive actions similar to diltiazem, but nifedipine induced a more pronounced reflex tachycardia than diltiazem. Combined administration of diltiazem with pindolol produced a greater hypotension than that caused by individual drugs and caused an increase in heart rate, smaller than by pindolol alone and larger than by diltiazem alone. When 60 mg of diltiazem was administered 3 times a day for 10 consecutive days, blood pressure decreased 15 mmHg on the third day or later. Although the time course of plasma level of diltiazem on the last day was similar to that on the first day, the heart rate initially increased slightly and decreased later. Prolongation of the PQ interval of an electrocardiogram was diminished after the fourth day. In conclusion, diltiazem decreased blood pressure of renal hypertensive dogs at doses comparable to those used for clinical treatment in acute and chronic experiments.
