Abstract
BACKGROUND The cell-surface enzyme carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX/CA9) promotes tumor growth, survival, invasion, and metastasis, mainly via its pH-regulating functions. Owing to its tumor-specific expression, CAIX-targeting antibodies/chemicals are utilized for therapeutic and diagnostic purposes. However, mechanisms of CAIX trafficking, which affects such CAIX-targeting modalities remain unclear. In this study, roles of the AMAP1-PRKD2 pathway, which mediates integrin recycling of invasive cancer cells, in CAIX trafficking were investigated. METHODS Using highly invasive MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells, the physical association and colocalization of endogenous proteins were analyzed by immunoprecipitation and immunofluorescence, protein/mRNA levels were quantified by western blotting/qPCR, and cell-surface transport and intracellular/extracellular pH regulation were measured by biotin-labeling and fluorescent dye-based assays, respectively. The correlation between mRNA levels and patients' prognoses was analyzed using a TCGA breast cancer dataset. RESULTS AMAP1 associated with the CAIX protein complex, and they colocalized at the plasma membrane and tubulovesicular structures. AMAP1 knockdown reduced total/surface CAIX, induced its lysosomal accumulation and degradation, and affected intracellular/extracellular pH. PRKD2 knockdown excluded AMAP1 from the CAIX complex and reduced total CAIX in a lysosome-dependent manner. Unexpectedly, AMAP1 knockdown also reduced CAIX mRNA. AMAP1 interacted with PIAS3, which stabilizes HIF-1α, a transcriptional regulator of CA9. AMAP1 knockdown inhibited the PIAS3-HIF-1α interaction and destabilized the HIF-1α protein. High-ASAP1 (AMAP1-encoding gene) together with high-PIAS3 correlated with high-CA9 and an unfavorable prognosis in breast cancer. CONCLUSION The AMAP1-PRKD2 pathway regulates CAIX trafficking, and modulates its total/surface expression. The AMAP1-PIAS3 interaction augments CA9 transcription by stabilizing HIF-1α, presumably contributing to an unfavorable prognosis.

Abstract
The genetic manipulation of cells followed by their selection is indispensable for cell biological research. Although antibiotics-resistant genes are commonly used as selection markers, optimization of the condition for each selective agent is required. Here we utilized split-inteins and the drug-selectable marker puromycin N-acetyltransferase (PAC) to develop a system that enables the selection of cells simultaneously or sequentially transfected with multiple genetic constructs, using only puromycin. The active PAC enzyme was reconstituted by intein-mediated trans-splicing at several inherent or engineered serine/cysteine residues. Multiple splitting and reconstitution of active PAC was readily achieved by selecting optimum division sites based on the cellular tolerance to various puromycin concentrations. To achieve the stepwise selection method, PAC-intein fragments were transduced into cells using a virus-like particle (VLP) composed of HIV-1 gag-pol and VSV-G. The PAC-intein-VLP successfully conferred sufficient PAC activity for puromycin selection, which was quickly diminished in the absence of the VLP. Our findings demonstrate a versatile strategy for establishing markers for all-at-once or stepwise selection of multiple genetic manipulations, which will be useful in many fields of biology.

Abstract
Mitochondria dynamically alter their subcellular localization during cell movement, although the underlying mechanisms remain largely elusive. The small GTPase Arf6 and its signaling pathway involving AMAP1 promote cell invasion via integrin recycling. Here we show that the Arf6–AMAP1 pathway promote the anterograde trafficking of mitochondria. Blocking the Arf6-based pathway causes mitochondrial aggregation near the microtubule-organizing center, and subsequently induces detrimental reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, likely via a mitochondrial ROS-induced ROS release-like mechanism. The Arf6-based pathway promotes the localization of ILK to focal adhesions to block RhoT1–TRAK2 association, which controls mitochondrial retrograde trafficking. Blockade of the RhoT1–TRAK1 machinery, rather than RhoT1–TRAK2, impairs cell invasion, but not two-dimensional random cell migration. Weakly or non-invasive cells do not notably express TRAK proteins, whereas they clearly express their mRNAs. Our results identified a novel association between cell movement and mitochondrial dynamics, which is specific to invasion and is necessary for avoiding detrimental ROS production. Mitochondria subcellular localization is dynamically regulated during migration. Here, the authors show that Arf6–AMAP1 dependent ILK localization at focal adhesions reduces mitochondrial retrograde trafficking in migratory cells and prevents mitochondrial aggregation and detrimental ROS production.

Abstract
TP53 mutation (i.e., loss of normal-p53) may evoke epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), which was previously attributed to loss of certain miRNAs. However, not all epithelial cells undergo EMT upon TP53 mutation, and the p53-miRNA axis may not fully explain p53 function in epithelial integrity. We here show two modes of epithelial integrity: one involves p53-binding to a nucleotide region and the other does not. In the former, p53 binds to the CDH1 (encoding E-cadherin) locus to antagonize EZH2-mediated H3K27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) to maintain high levels of acetylation of H3K27 (H3K27ac). In the latter, the same locus is not highly acetylated at H3K27, and does not allow p53-binding, nor needs to antagonize EZH2. We moreover demonstrated that although the CDH1 locus in the p53-independent cells, but not in fibroblasts, becomes high-H3K27ac by butyrate and allows p53-biniding, their CDH1 expression does not become dependent on p53. Our results identified novel modes of the epithelial integrity, in which the same epithelial-specific gene locus exhibits different requirement for p53 with different histone modifications among different epithelial cells to warrant its expression.

Abstract
PURPOSE Identification of the unique genes playing critical roles in human embryo cleavage. METHODS Isolation of human ePAB cDNA using human ovary cDNA libraries and mouse ePAB amino acid sequences, followed by analysis of its expression pattern in various adult tissues and stages during early oocyte development excluding ePABP2. RESULTS Human ePAB encodes a 330-aa protein and is located on chromosome 20q12-q13.1. The amino acid sequence is 72% homologous with that of mouse ePab. Human ePAB has only three RRMs and lacks a PABP domain; the expression pattern is nonspecific in adult tissues and detected in all stages, from oocyte to blastocyst. Human ePABP2 encodes a 282-aa protein and is located on chromosome 16q24.3. The amino acid sequence is 68% homologous with mouse ePabp2. CONCLUSIONS We identified human ePAB and ePABP2 cDNA. Human ePAB cDNA is not expressed specific to the ovary. Biological discrepancies exist between the human and the mouse.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the association of CD40/CD40 ligand (CD40L) interactions with the development of skin fibrosis and autoimmunity in tight-skin (TSK/+) mouse, which is a mouse model for human systemic sclerosis. METHODS Newly born TSK/+ mice were treated with murine anti-CD40L monoclonal antibody (100 microg intraperitoneally weekly). Hypodermal thickness of 8-week-old female mice (defined as the thickness of a subcutaneous loose connective tissue layer beneath the panniculus carnosus) was measured under a light microscope. All skin sections were taken from the para-midline, upper back region. Serum anti-topoisomerase I autoantibody levels, serum immunoglobulin levels and plasma soluble CD40L levels were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. For analysis of lymphocyte surface molecules, single cell suspensions of lymphocytes were stained by monoclonal antibodies. Proliferation of TSK/+ B cells and fibroblasts to anti-CD40 antibodies was assessed by the uptake of [3H]-labelled thymidine and bromodeoxyuridine, respectively. RESULTS The blockade of CD40/CD40L interactions by anti-CD40L monoclonal antibody significantly reduced cutaneous fibrosis (65%) and anti-topoisomerase I autoantibody in TSK/+ mice. Anti-CD40L monoclonal antibody also normalised B lymphocyte abnormal activation in TSK/+ mice, demonstrated by hyper-gamma-globulinaemia. Furthermore, augmented CD40/CD40L interactions in TSK/+ mice were suggested by upregulated expression of CD40L on CD4(+) T cells, elevated plasma soluble CD40L levels. The hyperresponsiveness to CD40 stimulation was also observed in TSK/+ B cells and fibroblasts. CONCLUSIONS Cutaneous fibrosis and autoimmunity in TSK/+ mice are closely correlated with CD40/CD40L interactions.

Abstract
Malignant melanoma is often accompanied by a host response of inflammatory cell infiltration that is highly regulated by multiple adhesion molecules. To assess the role of adhesion molecules, including L-selectin and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), in this process, subcutaneous primary growth and metastasis to the lung of B16 melanoma cells not expressing L-selectin, ICAM-1 or their ligands were examined in mice lacking L-selectin, ICAM-1 or both. Primary subcutaneous growth of B16 melanoma was augmented by loss of L-selectin, ICAM-1 or both, while pulmonary metastasis was enhanced by the loss of L-selectin or combined loss of L-selectin and ICAM-1. In both situations, the combined loss of L-selectin and ICAM-1 exhibited the greatest effect. This enhancement was associated generally with a reduced accumulation of natural killer (NK) cells, CD4+ T cells and CD8+ T cells and also with a diminished release of interferon (IFN)-gamma and tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha but not interleukin (IL)-6. Cytotoxicity against melanoma was not defective by the absence of ICAM-1, L-selectin or both, suggesting that the enhancement of tumour growth and metastasis caused by the loss of adhesion molecules results from an impaired migration of effector cells into the tissue rather than from a suppression of the cytotoxic response. The results indicate that L-selectin and ICAM-1 contribute co-operatively to the anti-tumour reaction by regulating lymphocyte infiltration to the tumour.

Abstract
We determined the in vitro effects of teicoplanin (TEIC) or vancomycin (VCM) added to cefozopran (CZOP) on 50 methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains, using a modified checkerboard method with serial 1.25-fold dilutions, and assessed the time-kill curve. CZOP + TEIC was synergistic (fractional inhibitory concentration index < or = 0.5) against 98% and CZOP + VCM against 20% of strains. Both drug combinations were additive against the remaining strains. A comparison of the fractional bactericidal concentration indices for 32 strains showed synergistic bactericidal effects for CZOP + TEIC in 88%, and in 48% for CZOP +VCM, confirming that CZOP + TEIC is superior to CZOP + VCM. The time-kill curve confirms that the bactericidal potency of these drugs is increased through combined use with CZOP. These results suggest that treatment using TEIC or VCM with CZOP may be useful in treating MRSA infections, including polymicrobial infections and those involving Gram-negative rods.

Abstract
The extent to which interactions between enantiomers of disopyramide and between disopyramide and its metabolite, mono-N-dealkylated disopyramide (MND), contribute to stereoselectivity of the anti-arrhythmic effect has been investigated in rabbits by measuring the prolongation of the QUc interval. The plasma unbound fraction of disopyramide enantiomers was constant at a concentration range of 1.44-28.9 microM. An intravenous infusion study of the disopyramide enantiomer or racemate suggested that the S-enantiomer had a pharmacological effect, determined by linear regression analysis, approximately 3.3-times more potent than that of the R-enantiomer. Furthermore, the effect caused by racemic disopyramide was the sum of that elicited by both enantiomers individually. No significant difference was observed between the slope of linear regression analysis of intravenous infusion and that of intravenous bolus injection. Single intravenous bolus injection of MND did not affect the QUc intervals. In conclusion, the S-enantiomer of disopyramide was approximately 3.3-times more potent pharmacologically than the R-enantiomer. The relationship between plasma concentration of the disopyramide enantiomers and pharmacological effect was the sum of each enantiomer individually.

Abstract
The main component of scallop-shell powder is calcium carbonate (CaCO3). Through heat treatment, CaCO3 in the shell is converted to CaO, which exhibits antibacterial activity. The disinfecting effect of heated scallop-shell powder on shredded cabbage was investigated for various powder concentrations (0.1 to 1.0 g dm(-3)) and treatment temperatures (10 to 40 degrees C). Scallop-shell powder treatment was found to reduce the aerobic bacteria count in cabbage, with increasing effectiveness at higher powder concentrations and treatment temperatures. Coliforms were completely eliminated within 5 min with as little as 0.1 g dm(-3) powder treatment. During storage at 4 degrees C, aerobic bacterial counts did not increase after powder treatment, whereas counts increased with water-washing or sodium hypochlorite treatment at 200 microg dm(-3). The inactivation pattern of bacterial cells in shredded cabbage involved an accelerated decline followed by an extended tail at powder concentrations of 0.1 and 0.5 g dm(-3). We postulate that a fraction of bacterial cells in the initial population becomes tolerant to the shell powder. A proposed model accurately predicts the reducing bacterial counts on shredded cabbage by scallop-shell powder treatment. The decrease in the L-ascorbic acid content of shredded cabbage was approximately 20 to 30% for scallop-shell powder treatment at 0.1 and 0.5 g dm(-3) (20 degrees C), which is almost identical to that by sodium hypochlorite treatment at 200 micorg dm(-3).

Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine trapezius muscle hardness in 9 healthy volunteers before and after word processing tasks with a video display terminal (VDT) at three different heights. When using a desktop personal computer (PC), no change was observed in muscle hardness even after a 30-min task if a subject was in the reference posture with a declination angle formed by the Reid's line directed toward the upper edge of the PC screen and the horizontal plane within 5-10 degrees. However, an increase in muscle hardness was observed after a 15-min task in a posture of looking up at the screen (angle of elevation: 15-20 degrees) and after a 30-min task in a posture of looking down at the screen (angle of declination: 15-20 degrees). When the same tasks were performed with a notebook PC, muscle hardness increased after 15 min. Fifteen minutes of relaxation exercise reduced the muscle hardness caused by VDT work.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study was conducted to investigate the effects of supplementation with free radical scavengers on the survival and fertilization rates of freeze-thawed mouse oocytes. METHODS Superovulated oocytes with cumulus cells were cryopreserved by slow freezing in propanediol combined with a rapid thawing protocol. The cryopreservation medium was supplemented with the antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase, and with the nitric oxide (NO) scavenger, haemoglobin (Hb). RESULTS The addition of 50 IU/ml SOD showed significantly higher survival and fertilization capabilities compared with control (P < 0.01). Oocyte survival was greatly increased by concomitant addition of SOD with 10 IU/ml catalase (P < 0.01). On the other hand, the NO donor (sodium nitroprusside) inhibited survival and fertilization rates (P < 0.05). Significantly decreased survival and fertilization rates were also observed following the addition of high concentrations (10(-3) to 10(-6) nmol/l) of the NO synthase inhibitor N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME). In contrast, significantly better oocyte survival and fertilization rates were detected with low concentrations (10(-7) nmol/l) of L-NAME. Oocyte survival potential was significantly increased by addition of Hb (1 microg/ml, P < 0.05). Moreover, oocyte survival and fertilization rates were significantly promoted by the concomitant addition of SOD with Hb (P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that supplementation of free radical scavengers, particularly combinations of SOD with NO scavengers in freezing and thawing media, improved the post-thaw survival and fertilization rates of cryopreserved mouse oocytes.

Abstract
UV-induced melanogenesis is a well known physiological response of human skin exposed to solar radiation; however, the signaling molecules involved in the stimulation of melanogenesis in melanocytes following UV exposure remain unclear. In this study we induced melanogenesis in vitro in normal human epidermal melanocytes using a single irradiation with UVA at 1 kJ/m2 and examined the potential involvement of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) as UVA-responsive signaling molecules in those cells. UVA irradiation did not affect the proliferation of melanocytes, but it did increase tyrosinase mRNA expression, which reached a maximum level 4 hr after UVA irradiation. The amount of tyrosinase protein, as quantitated by immunoblotting, was also increased at 24 hr following UVA irradiation. Among the MAPK examined, extracellular signal-related kinase (ERK) 1/2 was phosphorylated within 15 min of UVA irradiation, but no such phosphorylation was observed for c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNK) or p38. Accordingly, the activity of ERK1/2 was also increased shortly after UVA irradiation. These responses of ERK1/2 to UVA irradiation were markedly inhibited when cells were pre-treated with N-acetyl-L-cysteine, an antioxidant, or with suramin, a tyrosine kinase receptor inhibitor. The formation of (6-4)photoproducts or cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers was not detected in cellular DNA after UVA irradiation. These findings suggest that a single UVA irradiation-induced melanogenesis is associated with the activation of ERK1/2 by upstream signals that originate from reactive oxygen species or from activated tyrosine kinase receptors, but not from damaged DNA.

Abstract
We investigated the extent to which NO participates in the developmental competence (oocyte maturation, fertilization and embryo development to blastocyst) using an in vitro culture system adding sodium nitroprusside (SNP), NO donor, and NOS inhibitor (N-omega-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester, L-NAME). We also assessed the effects of NO/NOS system on blastocyst implantation using an in vitro trophoblast outgrowth assay. The treatment of low concentrations of SNP (10(-7) M) significantly stimulated meiotic maturation to metaphase II stages in cumulus enclosed oocytes. In contrast, 10(-3) and 10(-5) M L-NAME demonstrated a significant suppression in resumption of meiosis. This inhibition was reversed by the addition of SNP. No development beyond the four-cell stage was observed by the addition of high concentration of SNP (10(-3) M). Inhibition of embryo development, especially the conversion of morulae to blastocysts, was also observed in the treatment of lower doses of SNP (10(-5) and 10(-7) M). Similarly, inhibition of NO by NOS inhibitor resulted in the dose-dependent inhibition of embryo development and hatching rates, but the concomitant addition of SNP with L-NAME reversed the inhibitory effect by each SNP or L-NAME treatment. Furthermore, low concentration of SNP (10(-7) M) but not high concentration of SNP (10(-3) M) significantly stimulated trophoblast outgrowth, whereas the addition of L-NAME suppressed the spreading of blastocysts in a dose-dependent manner. These results suggest that NO may have crucial roles in oocyte maturation and embryogenesis including the process of implantation. The observed differences in required amount of NO and the sensitivity to cytotoxicity of NO in each developmental stage embryos may also suggest that NO/NOS system is tightly regulated in developmental stage specific manner.

Abstract
The mechanisms by which mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) respond to the input of UV-induced signal transduction pathways and the resulting biological functions are not well understood. We investigated whether the level of oxygen tension of culture was responsible for the differential activation of MAPK and different cellular outcomes in UVC-irradiated cells. The intracellular oxidative level of normal human fibroblast-like cells in a normal atmosphere (normoxic, 20% O2) was increased within 30 min after UVC irradiation. When cells were cultured at lower oxygen tension in the presence of an antioxidant N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) or under physiologically hypoxic (5% O2) conditions, the elevation of the oxidative level by UV-irradiation was significantly reduced. Among MAPK, extracellular-signal related kinase (ERK) 1/2 was activated by UV regardless of the oxidative level, while c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) activation was inhibited in NAC-treated and in hypoxic cultures. In addition, in cultures at lower oxygen tension, there was less apoptosis and cell survival was enhanced. These results suggest that UV-induced oxidative stress was responsible for intracellular signaling through the JNK pathway. Furthermore, the balance between ERK1/2 and JNK activities after UV irradiation under different oxygen tensions possibly modified cellular outcome in response to UV.

Abstract
To investigate the role of heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor (HB-EGF) in skeletal muscle, we studied its function in skeletal myotubes in vitro using mouse C2C12 cells. Expression levels of membrane-anchored HB-EGF (proHB-EGF) protein were increased specifically during their differentiation among epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) ligands. Production levels of EGFR on the cell surface were constant. Tyrosine phosphorylation of EGFR, however, was constitutively increased during differentiation. Quenching of endogenous HB-EGF significantly rendered myotubes sensitive to apoptotic cell death induced by hypoxic stress, suggesting that proHB-EGF in the skeletal muscle is specifically upregulated to function as a survival factor.

Abstract
Sjögren's syndrome (SS) is uncommon in men and there are few reports that describe their clinical features. In the present study, we investigated salivary gland manifestations in men with SS and compared the results with those in women patients. This study included 12 men and 117 women with SS, and the mean stimulated parotid flow rate in men (4.1 ml/5 min, n = 10) was higher than that of the women (3.1 ml/5 min, n = 101). The prevalence of SS-related sialographic findings, such as globular and punctate sialectasis, was significantly (P<0.05) lower in men (3/11) than in women (72/117). The prevalence of grade 4 cases on labial salivary gland biopsy was also significantly (P<0.01) lower in men (4/11) than in women (82/111). These results indicate a lower prevalence of SS-related clinicopathologic and sialographic changes in men with SS than in women with the same condition.

Abstract
We present a case of an abdominal cerebrospinal fluid pseudocyst as a rare complication of a ventriculoperitoneal shunt. The patient is a severely handicapped bedridden spastic quadriplegic with hydrocephalus. He underwent surgical reconstruction of a shunt tube because of shunt disconnection at the age of 12 years. Fever and frequent vomiting developed 2 months after surgery, and abdominal fullness gradually became severe. He was diagnosed as having an abdominal cerebrospinal fluid pseudocyst on abdominal ultrasonography. If a shunt dysfunction is suspected, this type of cyst should also be considered, and abdominal ultrasonography should be performed as one of the screening tests for determining the cause of the shunt dysfunction.

Abstract
The present study was designed to compare the clinical efficacy of low-dose step-up follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) administration with conventional FSH protocol (FSH was injected daily starting with a dose of 150 IU), both combined with intrauterine insemination (IUI), for the treatment of unexplained infertility. A total of 97 unexplained infertility couples was randomly assigned to one or other of the two treatment groups, either conventional FSH with IUI (48 patients) or low-dose step-up FSH with IUI (49 patients), and only the first treatment cycle was evaluated in each protocol. The difference in pregnancy rates per cycle was not statistically significant between the low-dose FSH group and the conventional group [seven of 49 (14.3%) and seven of 48 (14.6%) respectively]. A significant reduction in the incidence of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) was observed in the low-dose group (8.3% versus 27.1%, P < 0.05). The incidence of moderate OHSS requiring hospitalization was reduced significantly in the low-dose group (low-dose 0% versus conventional 16.7%, P < 0.01). However, the low-dose protocol did not completely prevent multiple pregnancies. Our results suggest that the low-dose step-up FSH treatment appeared to be useful for the treatment of unexplained infertility because of the high pregnancy rates and the significant decrease in the incidence of OHSS.

Abstract
We investigated whether the incorporation of the sperm membrane into the oolemma contributes to the human plasma membrane block to polyspermy. We used zona pellucida-free oocytes fertilized by intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) or activated by parthenogenetic activation. Only two of the 35 pronuclear oocytes fertilized by spermatozoa (control) demonstrated one single penetrating spermatozoa. In contrast, the majority of ICSI and parthenogenetically activated pronuclear oocytes were penetrated with an average of three spermatozoa per oocyte. The number of fused and binding spermatozoa of ICSI and parthenogenetically activated oocytes were significantly higher than in control oocytes (3.5+/-0.6 and 4.3+/-0.6 for ICSI; 3.0+/-0.3 and 3.8+/-0.4 for activated and 0.2+/-0.1 and 0.6+/-0.2 for controls, respectively, P < 0.01). Furthermore, the cortical granules were released from the cortex of ICSI and calcium ionophore-puromycin-activated pronuclear oocytes to the same extent as that of pronuclear oocytes fertilized by spermatozoa. These results suggest that the establishment of the plasma membrane block to sperm penetration in the human oocyte may require a fusion process between sperm and oocyte plasma membranes.

Abstract
Novel Leu-enkephalin (Leu-Enk) (1) analogs possessing various types of alpha-substituted serine instead of its glycine residue in the position 2 were synthesized via an efficient O,N-migration method. The binding characteristics of the synthetic analogs using Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells expressed cloned rat mu-, delta-, and kappa-receptors revealed that [(1R,2S)-Ahh2]Enk (7) was the most potent agonist of delta-opioid receptors among all the synthetic analogs tested, and was 10 times more potent than the native Leu-Enk.

Abstract
Veno-venous bypass under total vascular exclusion is a useful technique to permit safer resection of hepatic malignancy. We describe here a retrospective study of two modified venous bypass techniques as alternatives to the conventional end-on portal cannulation technique. Portal decompression via inferior mesenteric vein access was performed in eight patients (group A), and portal decompression via a passive shunt between a branch of the mesenteric vein and the right saphenous vein was performed in a second group (group B; n = 8). Both techniques were used in hepatic resection for malignancy under total vascular exclusion. To assess the efficacy of these bypass techniques, we compared the hemodynamic changes in the two groups. There were no differences in the bypass flow between the two groups. Neither group showed any significant changes in hemodynamic parameters (including mean arterial pressure, cardiac index, systemic vascular resistance index, and pulmonary artery pressure) between the pre-bypass and bypass phases. The heart rate in the bypass phase was significantly increased compared to that in the pre-bypass phase in both groups. All hemodynamic parameters in each phase were similar in the two groups. We conclude that both techniques maintained adequate venous return and stabilized the hemodynamic changes during hepatic resection under total vascular exclusion, and that either technique can be selected according to the intraoperative situation.

Abstract
As a possible intraoperative adjuvant approach to treating hepatic metastases we developed a method of hyperthermo-chemo-hypoxic isolated liver perfusion in combination with hepatic resection. This method was applied to 11 patients with colorectal hepatic metastases between 1992 and 1995. One patient died on postoperative day 14 of hepatic failure (9% mortality), the cause of which was live temperature that reached 42.9 degree C, which seems to be the maximum limit for thermal toxic effect on the human liver. The other 10 patients tolerated the perfusion well, with mild hepatic and non systemic toxicity after minor or even major hepatic resection; the serum aminotransferase and total bilirubin levels returned to normal levels by postoperative day 14. Only one of eight patients (13%) for whom cytotoxic drugs were added to the perfusate (mitomycin C 10 micrograms/ml or cisplatin 2 micrograms/ml) had hepatic recurrence by 19 months after the perfusion (mean follow-up 25.8 months; median 23 months; range 8-57 months). Two patients were alive with no evidence of disease at 13 and 57 months, respectively after the perfusion; the other five patients had postperfusion extrahepatic recurrences (median: 19 months; range 7-20 months). In contrast, hepatic metastases recurred 7 and 20 months after the perfusion, respectively, in the two patients not given a cytotoxic drug.

Abstract
With the advance of chronobiology, demands for simultaneous long-term monitoring and recording of various biosignals are increasing. To meet these demands we have developed a portable multipurpose recording system using a 24-hour ambulatory recorder. This technical achievement of less restrictive round-the-clock simultaneous recording of biosignals from not only the circulatory system, but also from the neurological and digestive systems of a subject in his/her daily life will contribute to clinical research on circadian variations of biosignals and EEG analysis during sleep.

Abstract
A novel member of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) family, the neural- and thymus-derived activator for ErbB kinases (NTAK), has been purified and cloned. Five alternative spliced isoforms have been detected in the rat adrenal pheochromocytoma cell line, PC-12 cells. The rat NTAK alpha2a isoform exhibits 94% identity in its primary sequence with the human NTAK alpha isoform. In vivo, NTAK is only expressed in the brain of rat E11.5 embryos, and in the brain and thymus of adult rats. The soluble 46 kDa form binds directly to ErbB3 and B4, but not to ErbB1 or B2. NTAK, however, transactivates ErbB1 and B2 via heterodimerization with ErbB3 or B4. NTAK stimulates the differentiation of MDA-MB-453 cells and competitively inhibits the binding of [125I]neuregulin to these cells. In addition to these neuregulin-like properties, NTAK exhibits limited structural homology to neuregulins in the immunoglobulin (Ig)-like, EGF-like, and hydrophobic domains. Thus, NTAK appears to be a new member of the EGF family displaying neuregulin properties.
