Abstract
OBJECTIVE NF-κB signaling is an important modulator in osteoarthritis (OA), and IκB kinase ε (IKKε) regulates the NF-κB pathway. This study was undertaken to identify the functional involvement of IKKε in the pathogenesis of OA and the effectiveness of IKKε inhibition as a modulatory treatment. METHODS IKKε expression in normal and OA human knee joints was analyzed immunohistochemically. Gain- or loss-of-function experiments were performed using human chondrocytes. Furthermore, OA was surgically induced in mice, followed by intraarticular injection of BAY-985, an IKKε/TANK-binding kinase 1 inhibitor, into the left knee joint every 5 days for 8 weeks. Mice were subsequently examined for histologic features of cartilage damage and inflammation. RESULTS IKKε protein expression was increased in human OA cartilage. In vitro, expression levels of OA-related factors were down-regulated following knockdown of IKKε with the use of small interfering RNA in human OA chondrocytes or following treatment with BAY-985. Conversely, IKKε overexpression significantly increased the expression of OA-related catabolic mediators. In Western blot analysis of human chondrocytes, IKKε overexpression increased the phosphorylation of IκBα and p65. In vivo, intraarticular injection of BAY-985 into the knee joints of mice attenuated OA-related cartilage degradation and hyperalgesia via NF-κB signaling. CONCLUSION These results suggest that IKKε regulates cartilage degradation through a catabolic response mediated by NF-κB signaling, and this could represent a potential target for OA treatment. Furthermore, BAY-985 may serve as a major disease-modifying compound among the drugs developed for OA.

Abstract
Introduction Surgical site infections (SSIs) with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus are serious complications of spinal instrumentation surgery. Many spine surgeons are concerned that using prophylactic vancomycin powder will lead to certain risks: the development of multidrug-resistant pathogens, anaphylactic reactions, and organ toxicity. Minimally invasive spine stabilization (MISt) is associated with shorter operation times and less blood loss and may therefore require the use of less vancomycin powder, which may reduce these risks. This retrospective comparative study of patients who underwent MISt at a single institution aimed to evaluate the complications (such as allergy, SSIs, and organ toxicity) and the local and serum levels associated with using prophylactic intrawound vancomycin powder compared with IV cefazolin alone. Methods Thirty-four patients received intrawound vancomycin powder (1 g) applied during wound closure in minimally invasive posterior lumbar interbody fusion (MIS-PLIF). This group was compared with 133 control patients who did not receive vancomycin. White blood cell counts and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels were measured for both groups on postoperative days (PODs) 1, 3, and 7 and were statistically analyzed. In the vancomycin group, serum vancomycin levels were measured on PODs 1, 3, 7, and 14; drain vancomycin levels and postoperative blood loss were determined on PODs 1 and 2. Results The CRP levels on PODs 1 and 3 were significantly higher in the vancomycin group than in the control group (P<0.001, P=0.024). In the vancomycin group, mean drain levels trended downward from 313 μg/mL (POD 1) to 155 μg/mL (POD 2). These levels correlated negatively with drain drainage volume on both days (POD 1: r=-0.48, P=0.015; POD 2: r=-0.47, P=0.019). Mean serum vancomycin levels also trended downward from 2.3 μg/mL (POD 1) to 1.7 μg/mL (POD 14). Conclusions Our results unexpectedly demonstrated that the local application of vancomycin powder causes an acute inflammatory response and the long-term detection of low serum vancomycin levels. Less than 1 g of intrawound vancomycin powder may be useful only at high risk of SSI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Sepiapterin reductase deficiency (SRD) causes central nervous system symptoms due to dopamine and serotonin depletion because sepiapterin reductase plays an important role in tetrahydrobiopterin biosynthesis. SRD cannot be detected by newborn screening because of the absent hyperphenylalaninemia. To diagnose SRD biochemically, confirmation of reduced monoamine metabolites and elevated sepiapterin in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) has been considered necessary, because a past study showed no elevation of urine sepiapterin. Recently, however, the elevation of urine sepiapterin in SRD was reported. METHODS We developed a fast method to measure sepiapterin and creatinine simultaneously using high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence and ultraviolet detection. Urine sepiapterin and creatinine were measured in three SRD patients, two SRD carriers, four SRD siblings, and 103 non-SRD patients. RESULTS In the three SRD cases, concentrations of urine sepiapterin were 1086, 914, and 575 µmol/mol creatinine (upper limit: 101.7 µmol/mol creatinine), and were markedly higher than those in other groups. CSF sepiapterin concentration was also measured in one SRD case and it was 4.1 nmol/L (upper limit: 0.5 nmol/L). CONCLUSIONS The simultaneous determination of urine sepiapterin and creatinine appears helpful for the diagnosis of SRD. This assay system can also be used to measure sepiapterin in the CSF.

Abstract
Cortical tubers are one of the typical intracranial manifestations of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). Multiple cortical tubers are easy to diagnose as TSC; however, a solitary cortical tuber without any other cutaneous or visceral organ manifestations can be confused with other conditions, particularly focal cortical dysplasia. We report a surgical case of refractory epilepsy caused by a solitary cortical tuber mimicking focal cortical dysplasia type II, and describe the radiological, electrophysiological, and histopathological findings of our case.

Abstract
Introduction Due to the narrow portal of entry, microendoscopic laminectomy (MEL) is associated with a risk of postoperative spinal epidural hematoma (POSEH). This risk might be higher when performing multiple-level (m-) MEL. The purpose of this study is to clarify the incidence rate of POSEH following single-level (s-) and m-MEL by each interlaminar level and identify the risk factors for POSEH following m-MEL. Methods A total of 379 patients underwent MEL of the lumbar spine (s-MEL, n=141; m-MEL, n=238). We determined the incidence of POSEH following s-MEL and m-MEL by each interlaminar level. For m-MEL, we clarified the correlation between POSEH and possible risk factors, such as operative findings, the sequence of operated interlaminar levels, and the preoperative cross-sectional dural area (CSA) on magnetic resonance imaging. Results The incidence rate at L2/3 was significantly higher than that at L3/4 and L4/5. Patients who underwent L2/3 decompression at the end of the procedure showed a higher incidence of POSEH at the L2/3 level. Preoperative spinal stenosis was associated with POSEH at the L2/3 level, and CSA of 56 mm2 was a predictive factor for POSEH. Logistic regression analysis revealed that both were significant risk factors. Conclusions In patients undergoing m-MEL, the incidence of POSEH is highest at the L2/3 level, and treatment of the L2/3 level at the end of the procedure and the presence of spinal stenosis are risk factors for POSEH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to demonstrate the biochemical characteristics of vitamin B6-dependent epilepsy, with a particular focus on pyridoxal 5'-phosphate and pyridoxal in the cerebrospinal fluid. METHODS Using our laboratory database, we identified patients with vitamin B6-dependent epilepsy and extracted their data on the concentrations of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, pyridoxal, pipecolic acid, α-aminoadipic semialdehyde, and monoamine neurotransmitters. We compared the biochemical characteristics of these patients with those of other epilepsy patients with low pyridoxal 5'-phosphate concentrations. RESULTS We identified seven patients with pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy caused by an ALDH7A1 gene abnormality, two patients with pyridoxal 5'-phosphate homeostasis protein deficiency, and 28 patients with other epilepsies with low cerebrospinal fluid pyridoxal 5'-phosphate concentrations. Cerebrospinal fluid pyridoxal and pyridoxal 5'-phosphate concentrations were low in patients with vitamin B6-dependent epilepsy but cerebrospinal fluid pyridoxal concentrations were not reduced in most patients with other epilepsies with low cerebrospinal fluid pyridoxal 5'-phosphate concentrations. Increase in 3-O-methyldopa and 5-hydroxytryptophan was demonstrated in some patients with vitamin B6-dependent epilepsy, suggestive of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate deficiency in the brain. CONCLUSIONS Low cerebrospinal fluid pyridoxal concentrations may be a better indicator of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate deficiency in the brain in vitamin B6-dependent epilepsy than low cerebrospinal fluid pyridoxal 5'-phosphate concentrations. This finding is especially helpful in individuals with suspected pyridoxal 5'-phosphate homeostasis protein deficiency, which does not have known biomarkers.

Abstract
To characterize metabolic profiles within the central nervous system in epilepsy, we performed gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS)-based metabolome analysis of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in pediatric patients with and without epilepsy. The CSF samples obtained from 64 patients were analyzed by GC-MS/MS. Multivariate analyses were performed for two age groups, 0-5 years of age and 6-17 years of age, to elucidate the effects of epilepsy and antiepileptic drugs on the metabolites. In patients aged 0-5 years (22 patients with epilepsy, 13 without epilepsy), epilepsy patients had reduced 2-ketoglutaric acid and elevated pyridoxamine and tyrosine. In patients aged 6-17 years (12 with epilepsy, 17 without epilepsy), epilepsy patients had reduced 1,5-anhydroglucitol. Valproic acid was associated with elevated 2-aminobutyric acid, 2-ketoisocaproic acid, 4-hydroxyproline, acetylglycine, methionine, N-acetylserine, and serine. Reduced energy metabolism and alteration of vitamin B6 metabolism may play a role in epilepsy in young children. The roles of 1,5-anhydroglucitol in epilepsy in older children and in levetiracetam and zonisamide treatment remain to be explained. Valproic acid influenced the levels of amino acids and related metabolites involved in the metabolism of serine, methionine, and leucine.

However, operational optimization of such algorithms for a better performance has not been fully addressed. ES of 1199 samples including 763 patients with different disease profiles was performed. ES data were analyzed to detect CNVs by both the eXome Hidden Markov Model (XHMM) and modified Nord's method. To efficiently detect rare CNVs, we aimed to decrease sequencing biases by analyzing, at the same time, the data of all unrelated samples sequenced in the same flow cell as a batch, and to eliminate sex effects of X-linked CNVs by analyzing female and male sequences separately. We also applied several filtering steps for more efficient CNV selection. The average number of CNVs detected in one sample was <5. This optimization together with targeted CNV analysis by Nord's method identified pathogenic/likely pathogenic CNVs in 34 patients (4.5%, 34/763). In particular, among 142 patients with epilepsy, the current protocol detected clinically relevant CNVs in 19 (13.4%) patients, whereas the previous protocol identified them in only 14 (9.9%) patients. Thus, this batch-based XHMM analysis efficiently selected rare pathogenic CNVs in genetic diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The initial presentation of acute encephalopathy with biphasic seizures and late reduced diffusion (AESD) is indistinguishable from that of complex febrile seizures (FS), which poses a great diagnostic challenge for clinicians. Excitotoxicity is speculated to be the pathogenesis of AESD. Vitamin B6 (VB6) is essential for the biosynthesis of gamma-aminobutyric acid, an inhibitory neurotransmitter. The aim of this study is to investigate our hypothesis that VB6 deficiency in the brain may play a role in AESD. METHODS We obtained cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples from pediatric patients with AESD after early seizures and those with FS. We measured pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) and pyridoxal (PL) concentrations in the CSF samples using high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection. RESULTS The subjects were 5 patients with AESD and 17 patients with FS. Age did not differ significantly between AESD and FS. In AESD, CSF PLP concentration was marginally lower (p = 0.0999) and the PLP-to-PL ratio was significantly (p = 0.0417) reduced compared to those in FS. CONCLUSIONS Although it is impossible to conclude that low PLP concentration and PLP-to-PL ratio are causative of AESD, this may be a risk factor for developing AESD. When combined with other markers, this finding may be useful in distinguishing AESD from FS upon initial presentation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess the effects of growth hormone (GH) on lipid profiles in children and whether the effect is pharmacological. METHODS The authors determined serum levels of total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) every year during 3-y GH treatment in 48 GH deficient (GHD) short children and 22 children with short stature born small for gestational age (SGA). RESULTS The abnormally high levels of TC, non-HDL-C, and LDL-C showed a high frequency in GHD short children compared with epidemiological studies in Japan. The high prevalence of high level of TC was also shown in SGA short children. Three-year GH treatment decreased serum TC, non-HDL-C, and LDL-C levels in both patient groups. CONCLUSIONS GH treatment is clearly a pharmacological therapy in SGA short children and so may also be in GHD short children at the Japanese standard therapeutic dose. Taken together, GH improves lipid profiles, and its effect has the possibility of medical properties.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite restoration of fertility after kidney transplantation, the benefit is limited in female kidney recipients. Our objective is to determine the reasons for this discrepancy. METHODS We evaluated 315 women who underwent kidney transplantation from 1983 to 2015 (a median of age at transplantation [10th-90th percentile] of 32 years [7-55 years]); 230 recipients between the ages of 15 to 49 years old as of March 2016 were observed. RESULTS We experienced 10 abortions and 21 live births from our 23 recipients and 2 abortions and 7 live births in 7 recipients from other transplant center. The live birth rate was 8.9 per 1000 female transplant recipients of childbearing age. Seven recipients received either treatments of artificial insemination or in vitro fertilization. Average age at pregnancy was 33.2 ± 3.2 years old, and the fertile period post-transplantation was longer in recipients with live births than those without live births (14.1 ± 7.1 vs 9.9 ± 7.3 years, P < .05). In 42.9% of recipients with live birth, pregnancy-induced hypertension was observed in the last trimester. The gestational age and the average birth weight were 32.8 ± 5.0 months and 2184 ± 632 g, respectively. During follow-up of 14.5 years, there was one case of graft loss, which is a rate of 2.5 per 1000 female recipients. CONCLUSION Although pregnancy complications are often observed in kidney recipients, graft survival is less influenced by pregnancy. Importantly, kidney disease at childbearing age disrupts pregnancy even after kidney transplantation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to assess the differences in pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles after the 1:1 ratio-based conversion from a twice-daily to a once-daily tacrolimus formulation (TD-TAC and OD-TAC, respectively) in pediatric recipients of kidney transplants. METHODS TD-TAC was initially administered to 29 pediatric patients who underwent kidney transplantations between April 2010 and September 2015 and were then subsequently switched to OD-TAC. The switch dose ratio was 1:1, and the 24-hour complete PK parameter assessment was performed before and after the regimen was changed from TD-TAC to OD-TAC. RESULTS The mean total daily dose at baseline was 5.5 ± 2.9 mg (0.18 ± 0.10 mg/kg body weight). Consecutive PK studies revealed no significant difference in the mean time to achieve maximum concentrations and the area under the concentration-time curve from 0 to 24 hours (AUC0-24) of both drug formulations. However, the mean trough concentration (Cmin) and the maximum concentration of OD-TAC were 22% and 6% lower and higher, respectively, than those of TD-TAC. Therefore, a better correlation was observed between the AUC0-24 and Cmin of OD-TAC than between those of TD-TAC. CONCLUSIONS After the change from TD-TAC to OD-TAC, the AUC0-24 values were equivalent despite a 22% reduction in Cmin. Cmin may therefore be an excellent predictor in the therapeutic drug monitoring of OD-TAC because of its superior correlation with AUC0-24.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study assessed whether non-fasting lipid markers could be substituted for fasting markers in screening for dyslipidemia, whether direct measurement of non-fasting low-density lipoprotein cholesterol [LDL-C (D)] could be substituted for the calculation of fasting LDL-C [LDL-C (F)], and the utility of measuring non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C). METHODS In 33 children, the lipid profile was measured in the non-fasting and fasting states within 24 h. Correlations were examined between non-fasting LDL-C (D) or non-HDL-C levels and fasting LDL-C (F) levels. RESULTS Non-fasting triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), HDL-C, LDL-C (D), and non-HDL-C levels were all significantly higher than the fasting levels, but the mean difference was within 10% (except for TG). Non-fasting LDL-C (D) and non-HDL-C levels were strongly correlated with the fasting LDL-C (F) levels. CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, except for TG, non-fasting lipid parameters are useful when screening children for dyslipidemia. Direct measurement of non-fasting LDL-C and calculation of non-fasting non-HDL-C could replace the calculation of fasting LDL-C because of convenience.

Abstract
Between 18 November and 3 December 2011, five renal transplant patients at the Department of Nephrology, Toho University Omori Medical Centre, Tokyo, were diagnosed with Pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP). We used molecular epidemiologic methods to determine whether the patients were infected with the same strain of Pneumocystis jirovecii. DNA extracted from the residual bronchoalveolar lavage fluid from the five outbreak cases and from another 20 cases of PCP between 2007 and 2014 were used for multilocus sequence typing to compare the genetic similarity of the P. jirovecii. DNA base sequencing by the Sanger method showed some regions where two bases overlapped and could not be defined. A next-generation sequencer was used to analyse the types and ratios of these overlapping bases. DNA base sequences of P. jirovecii in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid from four of the five PCP patients in the 2011 outbreak and from another two renal transplant patients who developed PCP in 2013 were highly homologous. The Sanger method revealed 14 genomic regions where two differing DNA bases overlapped and could not be identified. Analyses of the overlapping bases by a next-generation sequencer revealed that the differing types of base were present in almost identical ratios. There is a strong possibility that the PCP outbreak at the Toho University Omori Medical Centre was caused by the same strain of P. jirovecii. Two different types of base present in some regions may be due to P. jirovecii's being a diploid species.

Abstract
A 43-year-old woman with end-stage renal disease originating from IgA nephropathy entered chronic haemodialysis therapy. She then received an ABO-incompatible living related renal transplantation. Initial immunosuppression consisted of azathioprine, methylprednisolone and tacrolimus. At 155 days after transplantation, the azathioprine was changed to mycophenolate mofetil for continuous graft dysfunction. Furthermore, a total of three courses of anti-rejection therapy was given. At 665 days after transplantation, diagnosis of BK-virus nephropathy was made by immunohistochemical analysis and viral DNA assay. Therefore the immunosuppression therapy was reduced for graft dysfunction. All five renal biopsy specimens were examined retrospectively in order to determine when the BK virus nephropathy had developed. The expressions of SV40 large T antigens were detected from the third (117 days) to the fifth (665 days) biopsies, with increasing numbers of SV40 large T antigen positive cells. In addition, many cells contained inclusion bodies which were already present in the urinary sediment for 3 months post-transplantation. Although it is difficult to make a diagnosis of early stage of BKVN, we have to consider with caution if urinary cells with inclusion body are seen. Awareness of BKVN at the earliest opportunity is important in order to avoid over-immunosuppression.

Abstract
Home parenteral nutrition (HPN) is a useful method for the management of patients with gastrointestinal malignancy in that it enables them to resume their life at home even when they have become incapable of oral food ingestion. The appropriate time to start HPN may vary according to the background of the patients. Through an audit of 15 patients in whom HPN was initiated at Ward 7 West, and an analysis of a few representative cases, an assessment was made regarding the appropriate timing for the initiation of HPN. Whether the patients feel capable of leading a new and modified life at home depends on how well they have accepted the concept of HPN. After explaining to the patients their physical condition and the reason HPN is needed, medical professionals must evaluate how well patients have mentally and technically adapted themselves to the requirements of the HPN. It is also mandatory to assess whether the familial and medical environments around the patient are sufficient to provide whatever assistance is needed. The decision regarding the initiation of HPN should be based on these assessments. It is also important to evaluate the extent of the contribution that can be expected from the family members and to minimize the burden on the patient.

Abstract
Infection with Schistosoma mansoni, a portal vein-residing helminth, is well known to generate life cycle-dependent, systemic immune responses in the host, type 1 deviation during the prepatent period, and type 2 polarization after oviposition. Here we investigated local immunological changes in the liver after infection. Unlike splenocytes, hepatic lymphocytes from infected mice during the prepatent period already produced a higher amount of IL-4 and a lesser amount of IFN-gamma than those from uninfected mice. Hepatic lymphocytes, particularly conventional T cells, but not NK1.1+ T cells, promptly produced IL-4 in response to worm products, soluble worm Ag preparation (SWAP), whenever presented by Kupffer cells from infected mice. The hepatic lymphocytes that had been stimulated with SWAP presented by infected mice-derived Kupffer cells produced a huge amount of IL-4, IL-13, and IL-5 as well as little IFN-gamma in response to immobilized anti-CD3 mAb. Kupffer cells from uninfected mice produced IL-6 and IL-10, but not IL-12 or IL-18, in response to SWAP stimulation and gained the potential to additionally produce IL-4 and IL-13 after the infection. These results suggested that prompt type 2 deviation in the liver after the infection might be due to the alteration of Kupffer cells that induces SWAP-mediated type 2-development of hepatic T cells.

Abstract
IL-18 is a powerful inducer of IFN-gamma production, particularly in collaboration with IL-12. IL-18, like IL-12, also augments NK activity. Here we investigated the molecular mechanism underlying the up-regulation of killing activity of NK cells by IL-18. IL-18, like IL-12, dose dependently enhanced NK activity of splenocytes. This action was further enhanced by costimulation with IL-12. Treatment with anti-IL-2R Ab did not affect IL-18- and/or IL-12-augmented NK activity, and splenocytes from IFN-gamma-deficient mice showed enhanced NK activity following stimulation with IL-12 and/or IL-18. Splenocytes from the mice deficient in both IL-12 and IL-18 normally responded to IL-18 and/or IL-12 with facilitated NK activity, suggesting that functional NK cells develop in the absence of IL-12 and IL-18. IL-18R, as well as IL-12R mRNA, was constitutively expressed in splenocytes from SCID mice, which lack T cells and B cells but have intact NK cells, and in those from IL-12 and IL-18 double knockout mice. NK cells isolated from SCID splenocytes expressed IL-18R on their surface. IL-18, in contrast to IL-12, did not enhance mRNA expression of perforin, a key molecule for exocytosis-mediated cytotoxicity. However, pretreatment with concanamycin A completely inhibited this IL-18- and/or IL-12-augmented NK activity. Furthermore, IL-18, like IL-12, failed to enhance NK activity of splenocytes from perforin-deficient mice. These data suggested that NK cells develop and express IL-12R and IL-18R in the absence of IL-12 or IL-18, and that both IL-18 and IL-12 directly and independently augment perforin-mediated cytotoxic activity of NK cells.

Abstract
When LPS is administered to heat-killed Propionibacterium acnes-primed BALB/c nude mice, they develop endotoxin-induced liver injury. As previously reported, this liver injury can be prevented by treatment with an Ab against IL-18, a novel cytokine with the ability to induce IFN-gamma production and up-regulate functional Fas ligand (FasL) expression. To identify the pathologic role of IL-18 in this liver injury, we investigated the hepatic cytokine network and FasL induction after LPS challenge. After LPS challenge to BALB/c nude mice, their livers expressed IL-12 mRNA, followed by the induction of IFN-gamma and FasL mRNA and then by the late elevation of TNF-alpha mRNA, but stably expressed IL-18 mRNA. The TNF-alpha induction curve had two peaks. The first peak was the result of the direct reaction to LPS, and the late peak might have been induced, since P. acnes-elicited Kupffer cells showed one-peak TNF-alpha kinetics in response to LPS stimulation in vitro. LPS-activated P. acnes-elicited Kupffer cells secreted both IL-12 and IL-18, as determined by ELISA and bioassay, respectively. The in vivo administration of anti-IL-18 just before an LPS challenge suppressed not only the induction of IFN-gamma and the late TNF-alpha elevation, but also the FasL induction, resulting in the total prevention of liver injury, whereas such an anti-IL-12 treatment did not. Anti-IFN-gamma treatment reduced the late increase in TNF-alpha, but not FasL, resulting in a partial prevention of the liver injury. The administration of anti-TNF-alpha just before elevation of the late TNF-alpha peak also markedly, but incompletely, suppressed the LPS-induced liver injury. These data suggested that IL-18 activates both TNF-alpha- and FasL-mediated hepatocytotoxic pathways in endotoxin-induced liver injury.

Abstract
LPS injection into normal mice does not induce liver injury, while the same treatment of Propionibacterium acnes-primed mice induces severe liver injury, indicating that P. acnes treatment renders the mice susceptible to LPS. Since IFN-gamma sensitizes macrophages to LPS, we investigated the mechanism of induction and activation of IFN-gamma-producing (type 1) T cells by P. acnes. Twenty percent of liver lymphocytes of C57BL/6 mice are CD4+ NK1.1+ T cells that promptly produce IL-4 in response to anti-CD3 in vitro. However, P. acnes treatment diminished these lymphocytes. Therefore, liver lymphocytes from P. acnes-primed mice showed reduced IL-4 production. Furthermore, P. acnes treatment induced CD4- type 1 T cells in the liver. Isolated P. acnes-elicited Kupffer cells produced IL-12 and to a lesser degree IL-18 in vitro. Injection of anti-IL-12 Ab totally abrogated these actions of P. acnes, while injection of anti-IL-18 Ab caused only partial abrogation. Thus, administration of P. acnes diminished CD4+ NK1.1+ T cells, but induced type 1 T cells in the liver by induction of IL-12 and IL-18 production. Injection of IL-12 (approximately 1,000 ng) dose dependently diminished CD4+ NK1.1+ T cells, but induced type 1 T cells. In contrast, injection of IL-18 (approximately 1,000 ng) failed, although injection of a much larger dose of IL-18 (10,000 ng) or IL-18 (approximately 1,000 ng) with suboptimal doses of IL-12 (1-100 ng) diminished CD4+ NK1.1+ T cells in a dose-dependent manner. Thus, P. acnes treatment renders the mice highly susceptible to LPS by induction and activation of type 1 T cells.

Abstract
We report a pulmonary angiocentric immunoproliferative lesion (AIL) in an 11-year-old boy with chronic active Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. The phenotypes of the proliferating lymphoid cells in the biopsied pulmonary lesion were CD2+, CD3+, CD4+, CD5+, CD7+, and HLA-DR+. EBV DNA was detected in the tumorous and the nontumorous tissue by Southern-blotting studies. Dual immunostains and combined immunohistochemistry/in situ hybridization showed the simultaneous presence of EBV-determined nuclear antigen or EBV-encoded small RNAs and T-cell markers in the lymphoid cells. Molecular genetic analysis of the tumorous lesion diagnosed as AIL grade III showed no clonal rearrangement of the T-cell receptor beta gene but a single type of fused terminal band of EBV. No such evidence of monoclonality was identified in the surrounding nontumorous tissue diagnosed as AIL grade I or II. The present case was a rare example of AIL in childhood and provides further histopathologic and molecular biological evidence supporting the concept of AIL as a continuous spectrum from premalignant lymphoproliferative disorders to monoclonal, overt malignant lymphoma.

Abstract
Practical usefulness of a teleradiology system using CCD camera, personal computer and telephone line was evaluated in a daily clinical practice. Image quality of this system is diagnostic for the majority of abnormalities on radiological images including plain radiographs. Radiological consultation between hospitals in the same city as well as between distant cities using this moderately priced system was thought to be useful in 90% of cases. Teleradiology using compact systems like ours is expected to be useful in the urban clinical environment as well as in distant areas.

Abstract
A 23-year-old male patient with homozygous C3 deficiency who developed asymptomatic proteinuria and hematuria was reported. Renal biopsy disclosed typical IgA nephropathy with deposition of early- and late-complement components except for C3 deposition. C9 and membrane attack complex were detected in the glomeruli despite the absence of C3. It was suggested that there might be some unknown complement activation mechanism which does not require C3 component.

Abstract
A case of mucocutaneous lymph node syndrome (Kawasaki disease, MCLS) complicated with mitral insufficiency is reported. This patient showed severe valvulitis, which was thought to be the main cause of mitral regurgitation. Two other patients with MCLS who did not present clinical signs of mitral insufficiency revealed the presence of mild valvulitis. The morphological alterations of cardiac valves were non-specific and mainly consisted of inflammatory infiltration, increment of fibrous connective tissue, and proliferation of small capillaries. In addition to the coronary aneurysms, the involvement of cardiac valves should receive attention as the sequelae of MCLS.

Abstract
C3 activator in sera of patients with agammaglobulinemia shows higher levels compared with age-matched healthy controls. This fact may be due to a compensatory function of the alternative pathway of the complement system to make up for the defect of production of antibody in these patients.
