Abstract
The progression of kidney disease varies among individuals, but a general methodology to quantify disease timelines is lacking. Particularly challenging is the task of determining the potential for recovery from acute kidney injury following various insults. Here, we report that quantitation of post-transcriptional adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing offers a distinct genome-wide signature, enabling the delineation of disease trajectories in the kidney. A well-defined murine model of endotoxemia permitted the identification of the origin and extent of A-to-I editing, along with temporally discrete signatures of double-stranded RNA stress and Adenosine Deaminase isoform switching. We found that A-to-I editing of Antizyme Inhibitor 1 (AZIN1), a positive regulator of polyamine biosynthesis, serves as a particularly useful temporal landmark during endotoxemia. Our data indicate that AZIN1 A-to-I editing, triggered by preceding inflammation, primes the kidney and activates endogenous recovery mechanisms. By comparing genetically modified human cell lines and mice locked in either A-to-I edited or uneditable states, we uncovered that AZIN1 A-to-I editing not only enhances polyamine biosynthesis but also engages glycolysis and nicotinamide biosynthesis to drive the recovery phenotype. Our findings implicate that quantifying AZIN1 A-to-I editing could potentially identify individuals who have transitioned to an endogenous recovery phase. This phase would reflect their past inflammation and indicate their potential for future recovery.

Abstract
Objective Recently, podocytes have been recognised not only as a physical barrier to prevent urinary protein loss but also as producers of proinflammatory cytokines. However, the roles of podocytes in the pathogenesis of lupus nephritis (LN) remain largely unknown. This study aims to determine the roles of suppressor of cytokine signalling (SOCS) family members expressed in glomeruli in the regulation of LN. Methods We investigated the expression of SOCS family members in glomeruli in murine lupus model induced by repeated epicutaneous administration of the TLR7/8 agonist imiquimod. We also investigated the roles of SOCS3 expressed in podocytes in the imiquimod-induced glomerulonephritis and systemic autoimmunity by using podocyte-specific SOCS3-deficient mice (podocin-Cre x SOCS3fl/fl mice (SOCS3-cKO mice)). Finally, we investigated the expression of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines in SOCS3-deficient podocyte cell lines. Results qPCR analysis revealed that among SOCS family members, SOCS3 was preferentially induced in glomeruli on epicutaneous administration of imiquimod and that interleukin 6 (IL-6) induced SOCS3 expression in podocyte cell lines. SOCS3-cKO mice exhibited severe glomerulonephritis, high levels of serum creatinine and urine albumin and decreased survival rate compared with control SOCS3-WT mice. Levels of anti-double-strand DNA antibody, SOCS (GC) formation and the numbers of follicular helper T (Tfh) cells and GC B cells in the spleen were higher in SOCS3-cKO mice than those in SOCS3-WT mice. Serum IL-6 levels and expression of IL-6 mRNA in glomeruli were also elevated in SOCS3-cKO mice. IL-6-induced IL-6 expression was enhanced in SOCS3-deficient podocyte cell lines compared with that in SOCS3-sufficient podocyte cell lines. Conclusion SOCS3 expressed in podocytes plays protective roles for the development of glomerulonephritis and inhibits autoantibody production in the imiquimod-induced lupus model presumably by suppressing IL-6 production of podocytes.

Abstract
Podocytes are highly specialized cells within the glomerulus that are essential for ultrafiltration. The slit diaphragm between the foot processes of podocytes functions as a final filtration barrier to prevent serum protein leakage into urine. The slit-diaphragm consists mainly of Nephrin and Neph1, and localization of these backbone proteins is essential to maintaining the integrity of the glomerular filtration barrier. However, the mechanisms that regulate the localization of these backbone proteins have remained elusive. Here, we focused on the role of membrane-associated guanylate kinase inverted 2 (MAGI-2) in order to investigate mechanisms that orchestrate localization of slit-diaphragm backbone proteins. MAGI-2 downregulation coincided with a reduced expression of slit-diaphragm backbone proteins in human kidneys glomerular disease such as focal segmental glomerulosclerosis or IgA nephropathy. Podocyte-specific deficiency of MAGI-2 in mice abrogated localization of Nephrin and Neph1 independently of other scaffold proteins. Although a deficiency of zonula occuldens-1 downregulated the endogenous Neph1 expression, MAGI-2 recovered Neph1 expression at the cellular edge in cultured podocytes. Additionally, overexpression of MAGI-2 preserved Nephrin localization to intercellular junctions. Co-immunoprecipitation and pull-down assays also revealed the importance of the PDZ domains of MAGI-2 for the interaction between MAGI-2 and slit diaphragm backbone proteins in podocytes. Thus, localization and stabilization of Nephrin and Neph1 in intercellular junctions is regulated mainly via the PDZ domains of MAGI-2 together with other slit-diaphragm scaffold proteins. Hence, these findings may elucidate a mechanism by which the backbone proteins are maintained.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The INBUILD trial investigated the efficacy and safety of nintedanib versus placebo in patients with progressive fibrosing interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) other than idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). We aimed to establish the effects of nintedanib in subgroups based on ILD diagnosis. METHODS The INBUILD trial was a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group trial done at 153 sites in 15 countries. Participants had an investigator-diagnosed fibrosing ILD other than IPF, with chest imaging features of fibrosis of more than 10% extent on high resolution CT (HRCT), forced vital capacity (FVC) of 45% or more predicted, and diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLco) of at least 30% and less than 80% predicted. Participants fulfilled protocol-defined criteria for ILD progression in the 24 months before screening, despite management considered appropriate in clinical practice for the individual ILD. Participants were randomly assigned 1:1 by means of a pseudo-random number generator to receive nintedanib 150 mg twice daily or placebo for at least 52 weeks. Participants, investigators, and other personnel involved in the trial and analysis were masked to treatment assignment until after database lock. In this subgroup analysis, we assessed the rate of decline in FVC (mL/year) over 52 weeks in patients who received at least one dose of nintedanib or placebo in five prespecified subgroups based on the ILD diagnoses documented by the investigators: hypersensitivity pneumonitis, autoimmune ILDs, idiopathic non-specific interstitial pneumonia, unclassifiable idiopathic interstitial pneumonia, and other ILDs. The trial has been completed and is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02999178. FINDINGS Participants were recruited between Feb 23, 2017, and April 27, 2018. Of 663 participants who received at least one dose of nintedanib or placebo, 173 (26%) had chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis, 170 (26%) an autoimmune ILD, 125 (19%) idiopathic non-specific interstitial pneumonia, 114 (17%) unclassifiable idiopathic interstitial pneumonia, and 81 (12%) other ILDs. The effect of nintedanib versus placebo on reducing the rate of FVC decline (mL/year) was consistent across the five subgroups by ILD diagnosis in the overall population (hypersensitivity pneumonitis 73·1 [95% CI -8·6 to 154·8]; autoimmune ILDs 104·0 [21·1 to 186·9]; idiopathic non-specific interstitial pneumonia 141·6 [46·0 to 237·2]; unclassifiable idiopathic interstitial pneumonia 68·3 [-31·4 to 168·1]; and other ILDs 197·1 [77·6 to 316·7]; p=0·41 for treatment by subgroup by time interaction). Adverse events reported in the subgroups were consistent with those reported in the overall population. INTERPRETATION The INBUILD trial was not designed or powered to provide evidence for a benefit of nintedanib in specific diagnostic subgroups. However, its results suggest that nintedanib reduces the rate of ILD progression, as measured by FVC decline, in patients who have a chronic fibrosing ILD and progressive phenotype, irrespective of the underlying ILD diagnosis.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the ability of chewing gum containing sodium metaphosphate (SMP) to remove coffee stains from enamel in situ. This was a double-blind (subjects, evaluators), parallel-group, crossover, randomized clinical trial with 30 healthy adult volunteers. Each participant held an appliance with a hydroxyapatite (HA) pellet on the lower lingual side of his or her mouth for two hours to allow pellicle formation. The appliances were subsequently immersed in coffee solution at 37°C for 48 hours. The color of the HA pellet before and after coffee immersion was measured using a spectrophotometer. The participant set the appliance and chewed two pieces of test gum, which contained 7.5 mg of SMP per piece, or control gum without SMP. Each cycle included five minutes of exposure to chewing gum, after which the appliances were placed in 100% relative humidity at room temperature for a 30-minute incubation. This cycle was repeated five times for each gum type. The color of the HA pellet was measured after each chewing cycle using the spectrophotometer. In addition, ΔE* values, which indicate the change in pellet color after each chewing cycle compared with after coffee immersion, were calculated. Data were analyzed using the paired t-test with Bonferroni adjustment to compare ΔE* values of control and test gum after each chewing cycle. The ΔE* values of test gum were significantly higher than those of control gum after all chewing cycles, excluding the first cycle (p<0.05). This finding indicates that test gum containing SMP was more effective at removing coffee stains from the HA pellet than control gum. We conclude that chewing gum containing SMP can effectively remove coffee stains from HA pellets. Thus, SMP is a promising agent to be further explored in tooth-cleaning studies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We investigated the efficacy and safety of tacrolimus (TAC) by monitoring its serum concentration for mothers and infants in pregnant patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). METHODS We measured trough concentrations of TAC in 25 pregnant patients with SLE to assess influence of TAC on the disease activity. Additionally, we measured the concentrations of TAC in umbilical arterial blood, breast milk, and breastfed infants to investigate the safety of TAC for the mothers and infants. RESULTS The trough concentrations of TAC in the mothers significantly decreased in the second trimester as compared with those before pregnancy. However, the decrease in the trough concentrations of TAC did not lead to the deterioration of SLE. When examined, the doses of TAC were significantly lower in the second trimester and postpartum in the deteriorating group than those in the non-deteriorating group. There were no adverse events by TAC in mothers and fetuses. The concentrations of TAC in the umbilical cord blood were lower than those in the maternal blood. The relative infant dose in breastfed infants of TAC was < 1%. The level of TAC in infant bloods was below detectable limits. CONCLUSION These findings suggest that TAC is one of the most effective and safest immunosuppressive drugs for use in pregnant patients with SLE.

Abstract
Objective The objective of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of discontinuation of risedronate for patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) treated with glucocorticoid (GC). Methods The participants were patients with SLE treated with prednisolone (PSL) ≥ 2 mg/day and risedronate for at least three years. Lumbar spine and total hip bone mineral density (BMD) measurements were taken at baseline and 24 and 48 weeks after discontinuation of risedronate, and bone turnover markers were evaluated at baseline, 12, 24, 36, and 48 weeks. Results A total of 36 patients were enrolled, 25 of whom discontinued risedronate. The mean age was 46.8 ± 11.2 years, and 23 were female. The mean duration of GC treatment was 14.8 ± 11.4 years, the mean dose of PSL was 7.8 ± 3.9 mg/day, and the mean duration of risedronate was 5.8 ± 2.4 years. Seventeen patients showed decreased lumbar spine BMD at 48 weeks after discontinuation of risedronate, with a mean lumbar spine lumbar decrease of 1.42% ± 3.20% ( p = 0.034); 17 patients (71%) showed a decreased total hip BMD at 48 weeks after discontinuation of risedronate, with a mean total hip BMD decrease of 0.99% ± 2.10% ( p = 0.021). Serum tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRACP-5b) ≥ 309 mU/dl at baseline was a risk factor for decreased total hip BMD at 48 weeks compared with serum TRACP-5b < 309 mU/dl (56% vs 0%, p = 0.0098). One patient developed a clinical fracture of the lumbar spine at 20 weeks. Conclusions Discontinuation of risedronate treatment in patients with SLE who had received GC therapy led to decreases in lumbar spine and total hip BMD, particularly in patients with high baseline serum TRACP-5b levels.

Abstract
We propose and experimentally demonstrate a low-loss and low-crosstalk Mach-Zehnder mode/wavelength multi/demultiplexer for WDM/MDM transmission based on a Si-photonics platform. A broadband 3-dB mode divider, which is also newly devised here, makes it possible to compose a Mach-Zehnder filter for "mode" and "wavelength" simultaneously. Transmission characteristics of fabricated 3-dB mode dividers are in excellent agreement with theoretical results. Mach-Zehnder filters using the 3-dB mode divider with a free spectral range (FSR) of 20 and 1 nm are also fabricated and the modal crosstalk is less than -24 dB in the 40-nm wavelength range for the MZ filter with an FSR of 20 nm. The tuning of the peak wavelength position by the TiN heater is also demonstrated.

Abstract
In order to evaluate probiotic strains applicable for the beneficial immunomodulation of the porcine gut (immunobiotics), we previously developed a porcine intestinal epitheliocyte cell line (PIE cells). Here, transcriptomic studies using PIE cells were performed considering that this information would be valuable for understanding the mechanisms involved in the protective activity of the immunobiotic strain Lactobacillus jensenii TL2937 against intestinal inflammatory damage in pigs. In addition, those studies would provide criteria for selecting biomarkers for the screening of new immunobiotic strains. We performed microarray analysis to investigate the transcriptomic response of PIE cells to the challenge with heat-stable enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and, the changes induced by L. jensenii TL2937 in that response. The approach allowed us to obtain a global overview of the immune genes involved in the response of PIE cells to heat-stable ETEC PAMPs. We observed that L. jensenii TL2937 differently modulated gene expression in ETEC PAMPs-challenged PIE cells. Microarray and RT-PCR analysis indicated that the most remarkable changes in PIE cells transcriptomic profile after heat-stable ETEC PAMPs challenge were observed in chemokines, adhesion molecules, complement and coagulation cascades factors. In addition, an anti-inflammatory effect triggered by TL2937 strain in PIE cells was clearly demonstrated. The decrease in the expression of chemokines (CCL8, CXCL5, CXCL9, CXCL10, and CXCL11), complement (C1R, C1S, C3, and CFB), and coagulation factors (F3) by L. jensenii TL2937 supports our previous reports on the immunoregulatory effect of this strain. These results provided clues for the better understanding of the mechanism underlying host-immunobiotic interaction in the porcine host. The comprehensive transcriptomic profiles of PIE cells provided by our analyses successfully identified a group of genes, which could be used as prospective biomarkers for the screening and evaluation of new anti-inflammatory immunobiotics for the prevention of inflammatory intestinal disorders in pigs.

Abstract
Coronaviruses have large positive-strand RNA genomes that are 5' capped and 3' polyadenylated. The 5'-terminal two-thirds of the genome contain two open reading frames (ORFs), 1a and 1b, that together make up the viral replicase gene and encode two large polyproteins that are processed by viral proteases into 15-16 nonstructural proteins, most of them being involved in viral RNA synthesis. ORFs located in the 3'-terminal one-third of the genome encode structural and accessory proteins and are expressed from a set of 5' leader-containing subgenomic mRNAs that are synthesized by a process called discontinuous transcription. Coronavirus protein synthesis not only involves cap-dependent translation mechanisms but also employs regulatory mechanisms, such as ribosomal frameshifting. Coronavirus replication is known to affect cellular translation, involving activation of stress-induced signaling pathways, and employing viral proteins that affect cellular mRNA translation and RNA stability. This chapter describes our current understanding of the mechanisms involved in coronavirus mRNA translation and changes in host mRNA translation observed in coronavirus-infected cells.

Abstract
Cold agglutinin disease (CAD) is a rare cause of anaemia in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). CAD is usually refractory to glucocorticosteroid, and other immunosuppressive and/or cytotoxic therapies. We report the case of a 55-years old woman with SLE and CAD that did not respond to high-dose methylprednisolone, cyclosporin A, and double filtration plasma pheresis. Because several recent case reports and studies have indicated promising results of rituximab treatment for CAD and for SLE, rituximab was given weekly at 375 mg/m2in two doses. The rituximab was well tolerated, and there were no adverse effects. The hemolysis and SLE improved markedly, and the patient remained disease free eight months later. This is the first report of successful rituximab treatment of CAD in a patient with SLE. We conclude that rituximab is worth trying in such patients if they fail to respond to conventional treatment.

Abstract
The ϕ-Λ(1520) interference effect in the γp→K^{+}K^{-}p reaction has been measured for the first time in the energy range from 1.673 to 2.173 GeV. The relative phases between ϕ and Λ(1520) production amplitudes were obtained in the kinematic region where the two resonances overlap. The measurement results support strong constructive interference when K^{+}K^{-} pairs are observed at forward angles but destructive interference for proton emission at forward angles. Furthermore, the observed interference effect does not account for the sqrt[s]=2.1 GeV bump structure in forward differential cross sections for ϕ photoproduction. This fact suggests possible exotic structures such as a hidden-strangeness pentaquark state, a new Pomeron exchange, or rescattering processes via other hyperon states.

Abstract
Tooth agenesis is one of the most common congenital anomalies in humans. However, the etiology of tooth agenesis remains largely unclear, as well as evidence base useful for genetic counseling. Therefore, we estimated the prevalence and sibling recurrence risk, and investigated agenetic patterns systematically. Tooth agenesis was classified into two subtypes: hypodontia (one to five missing teeth) and oligodontia (six or more missing teeth). The prevalence of these two subtypes were 6.8% [95% confidence interval (CI): 6.1-7.7%] and 0.1% (95% CI: 0.04-0.3%), respectively, and sibling recurrence risk of these were 24.5% (95% CI: 13.8-38.3%) and 43.8% (95% CI: 26.4-62.3%), respectively. This result suggests that the severe phenotype, oligodontia, might be mostly transmitted in a dominant fashion. Using a simple statistical modeling approach, our data were found to be consistent with a bilateral symmetry model, meaning that there was equal probability of missing teeth from the right and left sides.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Clostridium difficile is a major cause of nosocomial diarrhea. The incidence and prognosis of C. difficile-associated diarrhea (CDAD) has not yet been assessed in adult patients after unrelated cord blood transplantation (uCBT). METHODS The medical records of 135 adult unrelated cord blood transplant recipients were reviewed retrospectively to investigate the clinical features of CDAD after uCBT. These data were compared to medical records of 39 unrelated bone marrow transplant recipients and 27 related peripheral blood stem cell transplant recipients as controls. RESULTS A total of 17 recipients developed CDAD, with onset occurring at a median of 22 days (range, 0-56 days) after transplantation. Among the unrelated cord blood transplant recipients, 11 (9%) developed CDAD. These results were comparable with those of CDAD after unrelated bone marrow transplantation (uBMT) (2/39, 6%) and related peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (rPBSCT) (4/27, 16%) (P=0.37). Fifteen of the infected recipients were successfully treated with oral metronidazole, vancomycin, or cessation of antibiotics. The remaining 2 recipients who developed CDAD after uCBT died of other causes. The development of CDAD did not negatively affect overall survival after uCBT. CONCLUSIONS These data indicate that the incidence and prognosis of CDAD after uCBT are comparable with those after uBMT and rPBSCT.

Abstract
Systemic administration of gold thioglucose (GTG) causes a hypothalamic lesion that extends from the ventral part of the ventromedial hypothalamus (VMH) to the dorsal part of the arcuate nucleus (ARC), resulting in hyperphagia and obesity in mice. In the present study, we used in situ hybridisation histochemistry to explore the effects of GTG on the central corticotrophin-releasing hormone (CRH) system, which regulates feeding and energy homeostasis. Type 2 CRH receptor (CRHR-2) mRNA expression decreased by 40% at 8 weeks in the VMH and by 40-60% at 2 and 8 weeks in the ARC after GTG injection. By contrast, CRHR-2 mRNA expression in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) and lateral septum was unchanged. Urocortin (Ucn) 3 mRNA expression in the perifornical area and medial amygdala decreased, whereas CRH mRNA expression in the PVN increased at 2 and 8 weeks after GTG injection. Ucn 1 mRNA expression in the Edingher-Westphal nucleus and Ucn 2 mRNA expression in the PVN were unchanged. Because Ucn 3 is an anorexigenic and a possible endogenous ligand for VMH CRHR-2, our results suggest that decreased Ucn 3 expression and decreased VMH CRHR-2 expression contribute, in part, to GTG-induced hyperphagia and obesity. To determine whether VMH CRHR-2 mediates the anorexigenic effects of Ucn 3, Ucn 3 was administered i.c.v. and food intake was measured 8 weeks after GTG treatment. Ucn 3 decreased cumulative food intake on days 4-7 after surgery compared to i.c.v. administration of vehicle in control mice. By contrast, the anorexigenic effects of i.c.v. Ucn 3 were abolished in GTG-treated mice. Taken together, our results indicate that the Ucn 3 pathway, which innervates the VMH, is involved in appetite regulation via CRHR-2. It remains to be determined whether CRHR-2 in the ARC has additional roles in appetite regulation by Ucn 3.

Abstract
Small leucine-rich repeat proteoglycans (SLRP) are present in the extracellular matrix of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disc. Lumican and fibromodulin, classified as class 2 SLRPs, play important roles in TMJ assembly, proliferation and inflammation. Degenerative change in the TMJ disc gives rise to the process of internal derangement (ID). In this study, we immunohistochemically examined the expression of lumican and fibromodulin in nine human TMJ specimens and examined the gene expression of both proteoglycans in cultured human TMJ disc cells under interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 β)-stimulated conditions. An articular disc cell line was established by collagenase treatment of a TMJ disc. The subcultured cells were then incubated for 1, 3, 6, 12, 24 or 48 h under both normal and IL-1 β (1 ng/mL) conditions. The gene expression of lumican and fibromodulin was examined using the reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and real-time RT-PCR. We demonstrated that the expression of lumican significantly differs from that of fibromodulin in the deformed disc and that IL-1 β induces a significant increase in lumican mRNA, but not in fibromodulin mRNA, after 24∼48 h culture compared to cells cultured in the absence of IL-1 β (P<0.05). These results indicate that lumican and fibromodulin display different behaviors and that lumican may promote regeneration of the TMJ after degeneration and deformation induced by IL-1 β.

Abstract
Omalizumab is an anti-IgE monoclonal antibody that was proven effective for the treatment of severe asthma. IgE plays a central role in allergic asthma, and an anti-allergic effect of omalizumab has been confirmed in terms of its impact on Th2 cytokines. The objective of the present study is to determine the influence of omalizumab on clinical parameters and circulating immuoregulatory cytokines. Patients with severe allergic asthma were enrolled and given four months of omalizumab therapy. Changes of symptoms and other parameters were assessed, including the asthma control test (ACT) score, morning peak expiratory flow (PEF), peripheral eosinophil count, total serum IgE, and pulmonary function tests. The use of corticosteroids and short-acting bronchodilators, as well as the number of unscheduled hospital visits, were monitored. Circulating levels of cytokines were analyzed with a multiplex cytokine immunoassay in patients with or without omalizumab therapy. Asthma symptoms (evaluated by the ACT score and morning PEF) improved with omalizumab treatment, while total IgE was elevated. Use of corticosteroids and short-acting bronchodilators and the number of unscheduled hospital visits for exacerbation of asthma were all reduced by omalizumab treatment. The level of macrophage inflammatory protein 1-δ (MIP1-δ) was significantly reduced after omalizumab therapy and was high in patients without omalizumab. IL-16 also tended to decrease with omalizumab therapy. Both MIP1-δ and IL-16 decreased as asthma improved over the 4-month period of omalizumab therapy. These findings suggest that omalizumab may act via IgE-mediated immunoregulation of MIP1-δ and IL-16.
