Abstract
UNLABELLED We evaluated how bone turnover might predict vertebral fracture risk in postmenopausal women over 10 years. After adjusting for age and femoral neck bone mineral density, high bone-specific alkaline phosphatase and total and free deoxypyridinoline at baseline predicted increased vertebral fracture risk in women with ≥ 5 years since menopause. INTRODUCTION The aim was to evaluate the ability of bone turnover markers (BTMs) in predicting vertebral fractures. METHODS Participants in the 1996 baseline survey of the JPOS Cohort Study included 522 postmenopausal women, with no diseases or medications affecting bone metabolism. Vertebral fractures were ascertained in three follow-up surveys (1999, 2002, and 2006). Initial fracture events were diagnosed morphometrically. The Poisson regression model was applied to estimate the rate ratio (RR) of the following log-transformed BTM values at baseline: osteocalcin and bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BAP) in serum and C-terminal cross-linked telopeptide of type I collagen, total deoxypyridinoline (tDPD), and free deoxypyridinoline (fDPD) in urine. RESULTS Eighty-three fracture events were diagnosed over a median follow-up period of 10.0 years. RR per standard deviation (SD) (95 % confidence interval) for BAP was 4.38 (1.45, 13.21) among 65 subjects with years since menopause (YSM) < 5 years. RRs per SD (95 % confidence interval) for BAP, tDPD, and fDPD were 1.39 (1.12, 1.74), 1.32 (1.05, 1.67), and 1.40 (1.12, 1.76), respectively, after adjusting for age and femoral neck bone mineral density (FN BMD) among 457 subjects with YSM ≥ 5 years. Of the 451 women followed at least once until 2002, RRs per SD for BAP, tDPD, and fDPD adjusted for age and FN BMD over 6 years were not significantly different from those over 10 years. CONCLUSION BAP was associated with vertebral fracture risk among early postmenopausal women. BTMs can predict vertebral fractures independently of BMD among late postmenopausal women over a 10-year follow-up period.

Abstract
AIMS Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is pathologically characterized by the formation of α-synuclein-containing glial cytoplasmic inclusions (GCIs) in oligodendrocytes. However, the mechanisms of GCI formation are not fully understood. Cellular machinery for the formation of aggresomes has been linked to the biogenesis of the Lewy body, a characteristic α-synuclein-containing inclusion of Parkinson's disease and dementia with Lewy bodies. Here, we examined whether GCIs contain the components of aggresomes by immunohistochemistry. METHODS Sections from five patients with MSA were stained immunohistochemically with antibodies against aggresome-related proteins and analysed in comparison with sections from five patients with no neurological disease. We evaluated the presence or absence of aggresome-related proteins in GCIs by double immunofluorescence and immunoelectron microscopy. RESULTS GCIs were clearly immunolabelled with antibodies against aggresome-related proteins, such as γ-tubulin, histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) and 20S proteasome subunits. Neuronal cytoplasmic inclusions (NCIs) were also immunopositive for these aggresome-related proteins. Double immunofluorescence staining and quantitative analysis demonstrated that the majority of GCIs contained these proteins, as well as other aggresome-related proteins, such as Hsp70, Hsp90 and 62-kDa protein/sequestosome 1 (p62/SQSTM1). Immunoelectron microscopy demonstrated immunoreactivities for γ-tubulin and HDAC6 along the fibrils comprising GCIs. CONCLUSIONS Our results indicate that GCIs, and probably NCIs, share at least some characteristics with aggresomes in terms of their protein components. Therefore, GCIs and NCIs may be another manifestation of aggresome-related inclusion bodies observed in neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
This study examined the performance of rice and buckwheat when malted under various temperature conditions and for different lengths of time. The mashed malts produced from both rice and buckwheat contained a wide spectra of sugars and amino acids that are required for yeast fermentation, regardless of malting temperature. At the germination temperatures of 20, 25, and 30 °C used, production of reducing sugars and free amino nitrogen (FAN) followed similar patterns. This implies that temperature variations, experienced in different countries, will not have an adverse effect on the production and release of amino acids and sugars, required by yeast during fermentation, from these grains. Such consistency in the availability of yeast substrates is likely to reduce differences in processing when these malts are used for brewing. This study revealed that, while rice malt consistently produced more maltose than glucose, buckwheat malt gave several times more glucose than maltose, across all germination temperatures. Buckwheat malt also produced more soluble and free amino nitrogen than rice malt. Unlike sorghum, which has gained wide application in the brewing industry for the production of gluten-free beer, the use of rice and buckwheat is minimal. This study provides novel information regarding the potential of rice and buckwheat for brewing. Both followed similar patterns to sorghum, suggesting that they could play a similar role to sorghum in the brewing industry. Inclusion of rice and buckwheat as brewing raw materials will increase the availability of suitable materials for use in the production of gluten-free beer, potentially making it more sustainable, cheaper, and more widely available.

Abstract
Interleukin (IL)-27, a member of the IL-6/IL-12 heterodimeric cytokine family, induces pro-inflammatory responses including early T helper (Th)1 differentiation and generation of cytotoxic T lymphocytes, and also anti-inflammatory responses including the differentiation to IL-10-producing regulatory T cells, inhibition of Th2 and Th17 differentiation, and suppression of pro-inflammatory cytokine production. Nitric oxide (NO) is a potent source of reactive nitrogen species that play an important role in killing intracellular pathogens and forms a crucial component of host defense. Inducible NO synthase (iNOS), which catalyzes the production of NO, is induced by a range of stimuli including cytokines and microbes. Recently, IL-27 was reported to play an anti-inflammatory role in microglia by blocking oncostatin M-induced iNOS expression and neuronal toxicity. In the present study, we investigated the effects of IL-27 on NO production in thioglycollate-elicited peritoneal macrophages. IL-27 together with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced morphological change into more spread and elongated cells and synergistically enhanced NO production. The combined stimulation also enhanced iNOS mRNA expression and the NO production was abrogated by an iNOS inhibitor, NG-monomethyl L-arginine. The synergistic NO production could be attributed to the augmented Toll-like receptor (TLR)4 mRNA expression by the combination. Signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT)1 was indispensable for the morphological change and NO production. The combination induced nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) translocation into nuclear and phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), and their inhibitors suppressed NO production. These results suggest that in contrast to the anti-proinflammatory role in microglia, IL-27 exerts a pro-inflammatory role by enhancing NO production in peritoneal macrophages stimulated with LPS through activation of STAT1, NF-κB and MAPKs.

Abstract
Prostaglandin (PG) F(2α) is one of the major prostanoids biosynthesized by cyclooxygenases (COXs) from arachidonic acid. Although it has been reported that there is a selective surge in PGF(2α) production in the hippocampus during kainic acid (KA)-induced seizure activity, the precise intra-hippocampal distribution of PGF(2α) has not been elucidated due to the paucity of effective histological techniques for detecting PGs in tissues. We investigated the tissue distribution of PGF(2α) in the rat hippocampus 30 min after KA injection by developing fixation and immunohistological-staining methods. To detect PGF(2α) directly on histological sections, we used systemic perfusion fixation with water-soluble carbodiimide fixative, followed by immersion of the brains in Zamboni's fixative. We then performed immunofluorescence staining with anti-PGF(2α) antibody, with negative control experiments used to confirm the staining specificity. Definitive immunolabeling for PGF(2α) was evident most markedly in pyramidal cells of the hippocampal cornu Ammonis (CA) 3 sector and neurons of the hilus in KA-treated rats. Immunolabeling for PGF(2α) was also evident in granule cells of the dentate gyrus. Double immunfluorescence staining revealed that PGF(2α)-immunopositive neurons expressed cytosolic phospholipases A(2), COX-2, and FP receptor. These results suggest that the major source of PGF(2α) production immediately after KA injection was neurons of the hippocampal CA3 sector, hilus and dentate gyrus. These neurons exert PGF(2α)-mediated functions via FP receptors in an autocrine/paracrine manner and may play pathophysiological roles in the acute phase (30 min) of excitotoxicity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND One of the major obstacles in regenerating thick, complex tissues such as the liver is their need for vascularization, which is essential to maintain cell viability during tissue growth and to induce structural organization. Herein, we have described a method to engineer a functional human vascular network. METHODS Enhanced green fluorescence protein-labeled human umbilical vein endothelial cells (GFP-HUVECs) were cocultivated with kusabira orange-labeled human mesenchymal stem cells (KO-hMSCs) inside a collagen/fibronectin matrix. Premature vascular network formation was visualized by fluorescence microscopy imaging. Furthermore, constructs prevascularized in vitro were implanted into a transparency window in immunodeficient mice. RESULTS Following several days of cultivation, GFP-HUVECs formed vessel-like structures that were stabilized by pericytes differentiated from KO-hMSCs. After implantation in vivo, the patency of human vascular structures was proved by rhodamine dextran infusion. These functional vascular structures remained for over 2 months. DISCUSSION Vascularization is the key challenge to organ generation. We successfully generated human vascular networks inside a matrix. Integration of parenchymal cells using our engineering technique should facilitate future efforts to reconstitute vascularized human organ systems in vitro.

Abstract
Our study showed that sorghum and millet followed a similar pattern of changes when they were malted under similar conditions. When the malt from these cereals was mashed, both cereal types produced wide spectra of substrates (sugars and amino acids) that are required for yeast fermentation when malted at either lower or higher temperatures. At the germination temperatures of 20, 25, and 30 °C used in malting both cereal types, production of reducing sugars and that of free amino nitrogen (FAN) were similar. This is an important quality attribute for both cereals because it implies that variation in temperature during the malting of sorghum and millet, especially when malting temperature is difficult to control, and also reflecting temperature variations, experienced in different countries, will not have an adverse effect on the production and release of amino acids and sugars required by yeast during fermentation. Such consistency in the availability of yeast food (substrates) for metabolism during fermentation when sorghum and millet are malted at various temperatures is likely to reduce processing issues when their malts are used for brewing. Although sorghum has gained wide application in the brewing industry, and has been used extensively in brewing gluten-free beer on industrial scale, this is not the case with millet. The work described here provides novel information regarding the potential of millet for brewing. When both cereals were malted, the results obtained for millet in this study followed patterns similar to those of sorghum. This suggests that millet, in terms of sugars and amino acids, can play a role similar to that of sorghum in the brewing industry. This further suggests that millet, like sorghum, would be a good raw material for brewing gluten-free beer. Inclusion of millet as a brewing raw material will increase the availability of suitable materials (raw material sustainability) for use in the production of gluten-free beer, beverages, and other products. The availability of wider range of raw materials will not only help to reduce costs of beer production, but by extension, the benefit of reduced cost of production can be gained by consumers of gluten-free beer as the product would be cheaper and more widely available.

Abstract
IL-23 plays a critical role in the expansion of highly proinflammatory Th17 cells secreting IL-17 and IL-22. Recently, we demonstrated that Notch signaling drives IL-22 secretion through the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) and plays a protective role in Con A-induced hepatitis. In this study, we investigated the role of IL-23 in hepatitis using IL-23p19- and IL-17-deficient mice. In WT mice, the injection of Con A induced the upregulation of various cytokines, which included IL-23, IL-22, IL-17, IFN-γ and TNF-α. In IL-23p19-deficient mice, exacerbated hepatitis was observed and serum IL-22 and IL-17 levels were greatly reduced, whereas in IL-17-deficient mice, ameliorated hepatitis was observed. The injection of exogenous IL-22 protected p19-deficient mice from hepatitis, whereas the injection of exogenous IL-23 significantly increased the serum levels of not only IL-22 but also IL-17, and less effectively protected against hepatitis in IL-17-dependent and -independent manners. Finally, it was revealed that STAT3, STAT4 and Notch contributed to the production of both the cytokines, and that the AHR was important only for IL-22 production in response to Con A and IL-23 in liver mononuclear cells. These results suggest that IL-23 plays a protective role in hepatitis through IL-22 production and also a pathological role via IL-17-dependent and -independent mechanisms.

Abstract
The receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL), which is expressed by not only osteoblasts but also activated T cells, plays an important role in bone-destructive diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis. IL-27, a member of the IL-6/IL-12 family cytokines, activates STAT1 and STAT3, promotes early helper T (Th)1 differentiation and generation of IL-10-producing type 1 regulatory T (Tr1) cells, and suppresses the production of inflammatory cytokines and inhibits Th2 differentiation. In addition, IL-27 was recently demonstrated to not only inhibit Th17 differentiation but also directly act on osteoclast precursor cells and suppress RANKL-mediated osteoclastogenesis through STAT1-dependent inhibition of c-Fos, leading to amelioration of the inflammatory bone destruction. In the present study, we investigated the effect of IL-27 on the expression of RANKL in CD4(+) T cells. We found that IL-27 greatly inhibits cell surface expression of RANKL on naive CD4(+) T cells activated by T cell receptor ligation and secretion of its soluble RANKL as well. The inhibitory effect was mediated in part by STAT3 but not by STAT1 or IL-10. In contrast, in differentiated Th17 cells, IL-27 much less efficiently inhibited the RANKL expression after restimulation. Taken together, these results indicate that IL-27 greatly inhibits primary RANKL expression in CD4(+) T cells, which could contribute to the suppressive effects of IL-27 on the inflammatory bone destruction.

Abstract
Cancer is a complex disease with interactions between normal and neoplastic cells. Since current therapies for cancer largely rely on drugs or radiation that kill dividing cells or block cell division, these treatments may have severe side effects on normal proliferating cells in patients with cancer. Therefore, the potential for treatment of cancer patients by immunologic approaches, which may be specific for tumors and will not injure most normal cells, has great promise. Cancer immunotherapy aims to augment the weak host immune response to developing tumors. One strategy is to utilize cytokines such as IL-2. More recently, several exciting new interleukins have been characterized that have considerable promise for future immunotherapy. The promise of cancer immunotherapy largely depends upon the identification of these novel interleukins. This review provides an overview of the antitumor effects of relatively new interleukins as potential therapeutic agents applicable for cancer immunotherapy.

Abstract
The interleukin (IL)-12 family, which is composed of heterodimeric cytokines including IL-12, IL-23, and IL-27, is produced by antigen-presenting cells such as macrophages and dendritic cells and plays critical roles in the regulation of helper T (Th) cell differentiation. IL-12 induces IFN-γ production by NK and T cells and differentiation to Th1 cells. IL-23 induces IL-17 production by memory T cells and expands and maintains inflammatory Th17 cells. IL-27 induces the early Th1 differentiation and generation of IL-10-producing regulatory T cells. In addition, these cytokines induce distinct immune responses to tumors. IL-12 activates signal transducers and activator of transcription (STAT)4 and enhances antitumor cellular immunity through interferon (IFN)-γ production. IL-27 activates STAT1, as does IFN-γ and STAT3 as well, and enhances antitumor immunity by augmenting cellular and humoral immunities. In contrast, although exogenously overexpressed IL-23 enhances antitumor immunity via memory T cells, endogenous IL-23 promotes protumor immunity through STAT3 activation by inducing inflammatory responses including IL-17 production.

Abstract
SUMMARY Prevalent vertebral deformity increases incident vertebral fracture risk according to studies focusing primarily on Caucasian elderly populations. We report a 3-fold increase in this risk in a population-based cohort of Japanese women after adjusting for subject propensity for having vertebral deformities. This relationship tended to be stronger in middle-aged women. INTRODUCTION Evidence on increased risk of incident vertebral fractures associated with vertebral deformity in middle-aged women is limited. We aimed to evaluate this risk in a population-based cohort of Japanese women. METHODS We followed 712 women aged 50-79 years at baseline randomly selected from 3 municipalities in Japan for 6 years. McCloskey-Kanis criteria identified vertebral deformities on X-ray absorptiometric images. At follow-up, vertebra with > or = 20% height reduction from baseline were considered incident fractures. Rate ratio (RR) of incident fracture for prevalent vertebral deformities was calculated using the Poisson regression equation adjusted for propensity of having vertebral deformities based on potential risk factors. RESULT Vertebral fractures occurred in 73 women (10.3%). Crude RR of vertebral deformity-associated fracture was 4.63 [95% confidence interval (CI), 3.04-7.04] and decreased to 2.96 (95% CI, 1.77-4.94) after propensity score adjustment. Adjusted RR was generally greater in younger women at 7.19 (95% CI, 1.04-49.6), 3.19 (95% CI, 1.27-7.97), and 2.34 (95% CI, 1.33-4.11) for women aged 50-59, 60-69, and 70-79 years, respectively (p = 0.0527 for those aged 50-59 vs 70-79). CONCLUSION Vertebral deformity was associated with a 3-fold increase in subsequent vertebral fracture risk in Japanese women, and this association was stronger in middle-aged women.

Abstract
1. Among three types of fluctuations of instantaneous heart rate (IHR) found previously in newly hatched chicks, a high frequency oscillation with a mean frequency of about 0.7 Hz (Type I) appeared to be concurrent with breathing (Moriya et al., Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology, 124A: 461-468, 1999). 2. In order to confirm that Type I HR fluctuation is respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA), breathing activity was measured by a condenser microphone, simultaneously with IHR. 3. The microphone detected pressure changes caused by breathing (acoustorespirogram, ARG) and also unexpectedly movement, probably twitch, of hatchlings. 4. Simultaneous measurements of IHR and ARG demonstrated that oscillatory frequency of Type I HR fluctuation coincided with breathing frequency and IHR increased with inspiration, confirming that Type I HR oscillation is RSA. 5. In addition, large transient HR accelerations (Type III HR fluctuation) simultaneously occurred with movement or twitch of the hatchlings, suggesting that Type III HR fluctuation and movement of hatchlings have the same origin, probably sympathetic nerve function.
