Abstract
BACKGROUND Novel biomarkers (BMs) are urgently needed for bronchial asthma (BA) with various phenotypes and endotypes. OBJECTIVE We sought to identify novel BMs reflecting tissue pathology from serum extracellular vesicles (EVs). METHODS We performed data-independent acquisition of serum EVs from 4 healthy controls, 4 noneosinophilic asthma (NEA) patients, and 4 eosinophilic asthma (EA) patients to identify novel BMs for BA. We confirmed EA-specific BMs via data-independent acquisition validation in 61 BA patients and 23 controls. To further validate these findings, we performed data-independent acquisition for 6 patients with chronic rhinosinusitis without nasal polyps and 7 patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps. RESULTS We identified 3032 proteins, 23 of which exhibited differential expression in EA. Ingenuity pathway analysis revealed that protein signatures from each phenotype reflected disease characteristics. Validation revealed 5 EA-specific BMs, including galectin-10 (Gal10), eosinophil peroxidase, major basic protein, eosinophil-derived neurotoxin, and arachidonate 15-lipoxygenase. The potential of Gal10 in EVs was superior to that of eosinophils in terms of diagnostic capability and detection of airway obstruction. In rhinosinusitis patients, 1752 and 8413 proteins were identified from EVs and tissues, respectively. Among 11 BMs identified in EVs and tissues from patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps, 5 (including Gal10 and eosinophil peroxidase) showed significant correlations between EVs and tissues. Gal10 release from EVs was implicated in eosinophil extracellular trapped cell death in vitro and in vivo. CONCLUSION Novel BMs such as Gal10 from serum EVs reflect disease pathophysiology in BA and may represent a new target for liquid biopsy approaches.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Opioids are often administered for cancer-related pain relief. However, few reports have evaluated the association between opioids and immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment for patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The aim of this retrospective study was to reveal the effect of opioids on the prognosis of patients harbouring NSCLC treated with nivolumab. METHODS The medical records of consecutive patients with NSCLC receiving nivolumab at our institution were retrospectively reviewed. We collected clinical data at the time of nivolumab treatment initiation. Propensity score matching (PSM) was performed to minimise potential selection bias. We compared clinical outcomes with and without baseline opioid use. RESULTS Of the 296 patients identified in the study, after PSM, 38 cases with opioid use and matched 38 cases without opioid use were selected. The overall response rate was significantly lower in patients with opioid use than in those without (2.63%, 95% CI 0.47% to 13.49%, vs 21.05%, 95% CI 11.07% to 36.35%; p=0.0284). The median progression-free survival in patients with opioid use was significantly shorter than that in patients without (1.17, 95% CI 0.93 to 1.73 months, vs 2.07 95% CI 1.23 to 4.73 months; p=0.002). The median overall survival in patients with opioid use was significantly shorter than that in patients without (4.20, 95% CI 2.53 to 6.20 months, vs 9.57, 95% CI 2.23 to not reached months; p=0.018). CONCLUSIONS Patients with NSCLC receiving regular opioid administration at nivolumab treatment initiation had a worse nivolumab treatment outcome than patients without opioid use.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is widespread; however, accurate predictors of refractory cases have not yet been established. Circulating extracellular vesicles, involved in many pathological processes, are ideal resources for biomarker exploration. METHODS To identify potential serum biomarkers and examine the proteins associated with the pathogenesis of refractory COVID-19, we conducted high-coverage proteomics on serum extracellular vesicles collected from 12 patients with COVID-19 at different disease severity levels and 4 healthy controls. Furthermore, single-cell RNA sequencing of peripheral blood mononuclear cells collected from 10 patients with COVID-19 and 5 healthy controls was performed. RESULTS Among the 3046 extracellular vesicle proteins that were identified, expression of MACROH2A1 was significantly elevated in refractory cases compared to non-refractory cases; moreover, its expression was increased according to disease severity. In single-cell RNA sequencing of peripheral blood mononuclear cells, the expression of MACROH2A1 was localized to monocytes and elevated in critical cases. Consistently, single-nucleus RNA sequencing of lung tissues revealed that MACROH2A1 was highly expressed in monocytes and macrophages and was significantly elevated in fatal COVID-19. Moreover, molecular network analysis showed that pathways such as "estrogen signaling pathway," "p160 steroid receptor coactivator (SRC) signaling pathway," and "transcriptional regulation by STAT" were enriched in the transcriptome of monocytes in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells and lungs, and they were also commonly enriched in extracellular vesicle proteomics. CONCLUSIONS Our findings highlight that MACROH2A1 in extracellular vesicles is a potential biomarker of refractory COVID-19 and may reflect the pathogenesis of COVID-19 in monocytes.

Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a recently-emerged infectious disease that has caused millions of deaths, where comprehensive understanding of disease mechanisms is still unestablished. In particular, studies of gene expression dynamics and regulation landscape in COVID-19 infected individuals are limited. Here, we report on a thorough analysis of whole blood RNA-seq data from 465 genotyped samples from the Japan COVID-19 Task Force, including 359 severe and 106 non-severe COVID-19 cases. We discover 1169 putative causal expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) including 34 possible colocalizations with biobank fine-mapping results of hematopoietic traits in a Japanese population, 1549 putative causal splice QTLs (sQTLs; e.g. two independent sQTLs at TOR1AIP1), as well as biologically interpretable trans-eQTL examples (e.g., REST and STING1), all fine-mapped at single variant resolution. We perform differential gene expression analysis to elucidate 198 genes with increased expression in severe COVID-19 cases and enriched for innate immune-related functions. Finally, we evaluate the limited but non-zero effect of COVID-19 phenotype on eQTL discovery, and highlight the presence of COVID-19 severity-interaction eQTLs (ieQTLs; e.g., CLEC4C and MYBL2). Our study provides a comprehensive catalog of whole blood regulatory variants in Japanese, as well as a reference for transcriptional landscapes in response to COVID-19 infection. Genetic mechanisms influencing COVID-19 susceptibility are not well understood. Here, the authors analyzed whole blood RNA-seq data of 465 Japanese individuals with COVID-19, highlighting thousands of fine-mapped variants affecting expression and splicing of genes, as well as the presence of COVID-19 severity-interaction eQTLs.

Abstract
The efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) might depend on the presence of emphysema, but this association is not established. We aimed to investigate if quantitively and automatically measuring emphysema can predict the effect of ICIs. We retrospectively analyzed 56 patients with NSCLC who underwent immunotherapy at our hospital. We used the Goddard scoring system (GS) to evaluate the severity of emphysema on baseline CT scans using three-dimensional image analysis software. The emphysema group (GS ≥ 1) showed better progression-free survival (PFS) than the non-emphysema group (GS = 0) (6.5 vs. 2.3 months, respectively, p < 0.01). Multivariate analyses revealed that good performance status, GS of ≥ 1, and high expression of PD-L1 were independently associated with better PFS, while smoking status was not. In conclusion, quantitative evaluation of emphysema can be an objective parameter for predicting the therapeutic effects of ICIs in patients with NSCLC. Our findings can be used to generate hypotheses for future studies.

Abstract
This is the first report of COVID‐19 in a human T‐cell lymphotropic virus type‐1 (HTLV‐1) carrier. HTLV‐1 infection can cause immune dysfunction even in asymptomatic carriers. This case highlights the need for guidance on management of COVID‐19‐HTLV‐1 coinfection, specifically on the appropriate use of corticosteroid treatment while considering secondary infection.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study evaluated the relationship between end-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2) measured with a portable capnometer and PaCO2 in respiratory disease patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed patients whose EtCO2, measured with a portable capnometer using a mouthpiece, and PaCO2 were simultaneously assessed at a single center from August 2017 to September 2018. The primary outcome was the relationship between EtCO2 and PaCO2. We conducted subgroup analyses in patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD), with and without O2 supplementation. The relationship between EtCO2 and PaCO2 was analyzed using Spearman's rank test and Bland-Altman analysis. RESULTS A total of 100 patients were registered in this study. There was a moderate correlation between EtCO2 and PaCO2 (rho = 0.41). The Bland-Altman plot showed that the mean bias was 0.32 mmHg (95% CI: -1.28 to 1.92), the limits of agreement (LOA) were -15.48 and 16.13 mmHg, and the percent error was 38.49%. The LOA in patients with ILD were -15.12 and 13.75 mmHg. In patients with O2 supplementation, the mean bias was greater, and the LOA were wider than in those without O2 supplementation (mean bias: 7.17 vs. -1.18 mmHg, respectively; LOA: -14.29 and 28.62 mmHg vs. -13.82 and 11.46 mmHg, respectively). CONCLUSION In the clinical setting, the relationship between EtCO2 and PaCO2 was poor in patients with respiratory disease, especially in those receiving O2 supplementation, compared with that reported in previous studies. It may be difficult to precisely estimate PaCO2 in patients with respiratory disease based on measurements of EtCO2.

Abstract
Background Nivolumab, an immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI), has changed the treatment paradigm for advanced non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, factors associated with long‐term survival in NSCLC patients treated with ICIs remain unknown. This study aimed to evaluate patient characteristics and clinical laboratory changes related to long‐term survival in NSCLC patients treated with nivolumab, using real‐world data. Methods We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of consecutive patients with advanced NSCLC with Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG‐PS) ≤1 treated with nivolumab. We defined patients with overall survival (OS) ≥3 years as long‐term survivors. We evaluated the differences in patient characteristics and tumor response between nonlong‐term survivors and long‐term survivors and performed univariate and multivariate analyses of factors associated with long‐term survival. Results Out of 213 patients with advanced NSCLC treated with nivolumab, 162 patients with ECOG‐PS ≤1 were included in the study. Young age, ECOG‐PS 0, absolute neutrophil count decrease, lymphocyte percentage increase, and neutrophil‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (NLR) change (ΔNLR) <1 were significantly associated with long‐term survival. Long‐term survivors had significantly higher response and disease control rates than nonlong‐term survivors. Multivariate analysis showed that ΔNLR <1 was significantly associated with long‐term survival. Further, OS was significantly different between the PS 0 and PS 1 groups (median OS: 32.0 months vs. 10.6 months) and the nonincreasing NLR and increasing NLR groups (median OS: 20.8 months vs. 5.7 months). Conclusions ΔNLR <1 was a significant long‐term survival factor compared to ΔNLR ≥1 in advanced NSCLC patients treated with nivolumab.

Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an emerging viral disease with a mortality that depends on the individual's condition. Underlying comorbidities are major risk factors for COVID-19-related morbidity and mortality. However, information regarding the clinical course of COVID-19 in patients with rare respiratory system diseases is lacking. Here, we present a case of severe COVID-19 in a patient with advanced sporadic lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) who was awaiting lung transplantation. She experienced a marked worsening of her respiratory status despite the limited size of the infiltrations seen on chest computed tomography. She responded to treatment with dexamethasone and remdesivir, and did not require mechanical ventilation. She recovered her pre-COVID-19 respiratory function. This case illustrates that patients with severe lung parenchymal destruction due to advanced LAM are at risk of worsening hypoxemia, but may not have a bad outcome if managed appropriately. Prevention and early diagnosis of COVID-19 are crucial in patients with advanced LAM. Future studies are needed to improve understanding of the clinical features and optimal treatment of COVID-19 in patients with LAM.

Abstract
The naughty genes and 3D structure of the endometrium

The human endometrium is a highly regenerative tissue and involved in menstruation and implantation of the fertilized egg, giving it a central role in women’s reproductive health. However, the regenerative nature of the endometrial glands can lead to the development and progression of “endometrium-related diseases” such as adenomyosis, endometriosis, endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer, endometrial hyperplasia, and endometrial cancer. To clarify the pathogenesis of endometrium-related diseases and develop effective preventative measures and therapeutic strategies, comprehensive understanding of molecular biological linkage between endometrium and endometrium-related diseases was crucially important.
To this end, we focused on genomic alterations of endometrial epithelium which is considered the origin of endometriosis, and sequenced 107 ovarian endometriotic and 82 normal uterine endometrial epithelium samples isolated by laser-microdissection. Intriguingly, several genes recurrently mutated in endometriosis-associated ovarian cancers were frequently mutated in both endometriotic epithelium and normal uterine endometrial glands. In particular, PIK3CA mutation was detected in 41% of endometrial epithelium subjects but none of them had shared PIK3CA mutations across multiple regions collected from the same individuals. Mutation allele frequencies of somatic mutations in uterine endometrial epithelium samples were also significantly lower than those in ovarian endometriotic epithelium samples, suggesting the heterogeneous genomic compositions in uterine endometrium. To interpret this genomic heterogeneity in uterine endometrium, we focused on endometrial gland, the minimum functional unit of uterine endometrium, and conducted 109 single endometrial glands sequencing. As a result, we unveiled that each gland carried distinct somatic mutations in cancer-associated genes, such as PIK3CA, KRAS, and PTEN, with high mutant allele frequencies, suggesting the monoclonality of each gland. The presence of cancer-associated gene mutations in histologically normal endometrial glands provides important clues regarding the pathogenesis of endometrium-related diseases.
However, our previous study could not determine the spread of endometrial gland harboring cancer-associated gene mutation because there is a limitation to two-dimensional assessment of the whole shapes of endometrial gland due to its complicatedly winding morphology. Therefore, we tackled with three-dimensional (3D) assessment of human endometrium. To construct a large picture of endometrial gland structure, we performed tissue-clearing-based 3D imaging of full-thickness human uterine endometrial tissue with the use of light-sheet fluorescence microscopy. Our 3D immunohistochemistry discovered some new and unique 3D morphologies of endometrial glands, including plexus network of glands or occluded glands. Notably, computational analysis of 3D layer clarified that the plexus structure of the glands was mainly located in the stratum basalis and expanded along muscular layer horizontally, similar to the so-called “rhizome of grass”. Although previous studies have shown the 3D structure of murine endometrial glands, the bottom of these glands forms a crypt but not a rhizome. This can potentially be explained by the existence of menstruation, which is the crucial difference between the human and murine endometrium. The rhizome structure of endometrial gland in the human endometrium will have a functional advantage over the crypt in terms of the conservation of progenitor/stem cells and regeneration. In addition, some endometrial glands shared the plexus and rose toward the luminal epithelium, suggesting that these glands were the same origin. The rhizome of the endometrium may be a crucial element for understanding the expansion of endometrial glands harboring cancer-associated gene mutations.
Integrated analysis of the naughty gene alterations and the 3D structure in human endometrium will lead to a better understanding of the human endometrium in various fields, including histology, pathology, pathophysiology, reproduction, and oncology.

Abstract
Dendriform pulmonary ossification (DPO) is a rare condition characterized by metaplastic bone formation in the lung parenchyma. It has been reported to be often associated with primary lung diseases, such as usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) or chronic aspiration of gastric acid; however, its clinical features and pathophysiology remain unclear, especially in idiopathic cases. We herein report five DPO cases, including three with an idiopathic origin. In all cases of idiopathic DPO, the pathological and radiological examinations showed localized pulmonary lesions suggesting inflammation or hemorrhaging.

Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) can cause severe lymphopenia and respiratory failure requiring prolonged invasive mechanical ventilation (MV). COVID-19 patients with severe lymphopenia or respiratory failure are at risk of developing secondary infections. Here, we present the needle autopsy findings of a critically ill patient with COVID-19 who required reintubation and prolonged MV, and eventually died of secondary cytomegalovirus (CMV) pneumonia. This case highlights the potential risk of long-term steroid use and the need for routine monitoring for CMV infection in critically ill patients with COVID-19.

Abstract
PURPOSE Advances in endoscopic technology have led to the reevaluation of self-expandable metallic stent (SEMS) placement as a bridge-to-surgery (BTS) in patients with obstructive colorectal cancer. In Japan, after inclusion of SEMS placement as a BTS in the medical insurance coverage in 2012, this procedure has been increasingly performed. However, a transanal decompression tube (TADT) placement has been used as a BTS. We aimed to retrospectively evaluate the optimal strategy for obstructive left-sided colorectal cancer (OLCRC) by comparing SEMS and TADT placement with emergency surgery. METHODS We included 301 patients with stage II and III OLCRC from 27 institutions. The study patients were divided into Surgery group (emergency surgery, n = 103), SEMS group (BTS by SEMS, n = 113), and TADT group (BTS by TADT, n = 85). We compared the survival and perioperative outcomes of patients in the Surgery group as a standard treatment with those in the SEMS and TADT groups. RESULTS The 3-year relapse-free survival rate in patients in the Surgery group was 74.8%, while that in patients in the SEMS group and TADT group were 69.0% (p = 0.39) and 55.3% (p = 0.006), respectively. The technical success rate was not statistically different, but the clinical success rate was significantly higher in the SEMS group than in the TADT group (p = 0.0040). With regard to postoperative complications after curative surgery, the SEMS group had significantly lower of complications (≥ grade 2) than the Surgery group (p = 0.022). CONCLUSION Patients who underwent SEMS placement for OLCRC had similar oncological outcomes to patients who underwent emergency surgery.

Abstract
Combined small cell lung cancer (c‐SCLC) is a relatively rare subtype of SCLC and is defined by the combination of SCLC and any elements of non‐small cell carcinoma (NSCLC). Standard chemotherapy for patients with c‐SCLC has not yet been established. Gene mutations such as epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations may be detected in patients with c‐SCLC. However, little is known about anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) rearrangement in c‐SCLC patients. Here, we report a young female patient who was successfully treated with alectinib for ALK‐positive c‐SCLC after failure of immunochemotherapy for SCLC and cytotoxic chemotherapy for adenocarcinoma. Moreover, we performed a literature review of EGFR‐ or ALK‐positive c‐SCLC patients. Our report suggests that ALK testing may be justified in patients with SCLC that contain an adenocarcinoma component. Key points Significant findings of the study • This is the first report describing the treatment course comprising immunochemotherapy and ALK‐TKI in a patient with c‐SCLC harboring ALK rearrangement. What this study adds • Our case and literature review suggest that although ALK mutation is rare in patients with c‐SCLC, its identification and treatment with ALK‐TKIs may contribute to clinical benefits.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The clinical efficacy of osimertinib for patients with lung adenocarcinoma harboring epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon 20 insertion mutations is unclear. Few case reports exist on the successful treatment of such tumors with osimertinib. We report a case wherein osimertinib administration had no effect in a patient with EGFR exon 20 insertion-positive lung adenocarcinoma. PATIENT CONCERNS A 48-year-old never-smoking woman was referred to our hospital for chronic cough. Computed tomography (CT) and positron emission tomography-CT revealed a nodule in the right middle lobe, consolidation in the right upper lobe, multiple lymph node metastases, liver metastasis, and multiple bone metastases. DIAGNOSIS On the basis of further examination using transbronchial lung biopsy, the patient was diagnosed with cT1N3M1 stage IVB lung adenocarcinoma. An EGFR exon 20 insertion, without any additional mutations, was identified. INTERVENTIONS Daily oral administration of 80 mg osimertinib was initiated to treat the EGFR exon 20 insertion-positive lung adenocarcinoma. OUTCOMES Although the disease appeared to be stable 2.5 months after the administration of osimertinib, the tumor started to grow 3 months after administration, and carcinoembryonic antigen levels became higher than those before treatment. Thus, osimertinib was discontinued, and treatment with carboplatin as well as pemetrexed and bevacizumab was started, which the patient responded to. CONCLUSION EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations must be classified in more detail to assess the efficacy of EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Osimertinib doses that provide favorable therapeutic windows should be considered. Further clinical research is required to clarify the efficacy of osimertinib and other drugs for exon 20 insertion mutations.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of nivolumab treatment beyond progressive disease (PD) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). PATIENTS/METHODS Medical records of consecutive patients with advanced NSCLC who received nivolumab between December 2015 and December 2018 were reviewed. Clinical outcomes of three groups of eligible patients who received nivolumab as a second-line treatment after PD were compared based on Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors v1.1. We conducted subgroup analyses in patients with and without new lesions at first PD. RESULTS Twenty-eight patients continued nivolumab treatment beyond PD (TBP). Post PD, 46 patients switched to other anti-cancer treatment (OAT), and 21 received no further anti-cancer treatment (NAT). There were no significant differences in overall survival (OS) or survival post progression (SPP) between TBP and OAT groups (OS: 15.6 vs. 13.4 months, P = .40, SPP: 12.2 vs. 9.3 months, P = .42). Subgroup analyses indicated that among patients without new lesions at first PD, SPP was longer in the TBP than in the OAT groups (12.6 vs. 9.3 months, P = .22, HR: 0.64; 95% CI 0.31‒1.31). The frequency of immune-related adverse events leading to discontinuation during nivolumab beyond PD was equivalent to that for pre-PD (10.7 vs. 12.6%). CONCLUSIONS No significant benefits were associated with continuation of nivolumab for advanced NSCLC patients. Continuation of nivolumab beyond PD could be a more useful option in patients without new lesions at first PD. Treatment-related toxicities require attention during nivolumab treatment not only before PD but also beyond PD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nivolumab has promising efficacy for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Various predictive factors for nivolumab response in those with NSCLC have been reported, including performance status (PS). The objective of this retrospective study was to determine the predictive factors for nivolumab response in those with NSCLC with good PS and those with poor PS. METHODS We retrospectively collected pretreatment clinical data of 296 consecutive patients with NSCLC treated with nivolumab. We investigated the relationship between progression-free survival (PFS) and patient characteristics and analyzed predictive factors associated with good PS (PS 0-1) or poor PS (PS 2-4). RESULTS The median age of patients was 70 years; 206 patients were male, and 224 were classified as having good PS (PS 0-1). The median PFS was 3.0 months, 3.7 months, and 1.2 months for all patients, patients with good PS, and patients with poor PS respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that never smoking (hazard ratio [HR], 1.77; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.15-2.75), high C-reactive protein (CRP) (HR, 1.39; 95% CI, 1.00-1.93), liver metastasis (HR, 1.95; 95% CI, 1.24-3.07), pleural effusion (HR, 1.45; 95% CI, 1.06-2.00), and steroid use (HR, 2.85; 95% CI, 1.65-4.94) were associated with significantly shorter PFS in patients with good PS. A high advanced lung cancer inflammation index (ALI) was significantly associated with longer PFS in patients with poor PS (HR, 0.24; 95% CI, 0.08-0.79). CONCLUSIONS In patients with NSCLC treated with nivolumab, the factors found to be predictive of shorter PFS in patients with good PS were never smoking, high CRP, liver metastasis, pleural effusion, and steroid administration, whereas high ALI was predictive of longer PFS in patients with poor PS.

Abstract
Cellular responses to the transforming growth factor beta (TGFbeta) ligand, including inhibition of cell proliferation, are mediated by a heteromeric receptor complex composed of TGFbeta types I and II receptors (TbetaR-I and TbetaR-II). Loss of responsiveness to TGFbeta, attributed to inactivation of the TbetaR complex, has been implicated in the development of tumors in a number of human epithelial and lymphoid tissues. To gain a better understanding of TGFbeta signal transduction pathways in endometrial carcinogenesis, we have investigated the role of the TbetaR complex by evaluating the TbetaR-I and TbetaR-II genes for mutations throughout the entire coding region in human sporadic endometrial tumors. Using reverse transcription-PCR, "Cold" single-strand conformation polymorphism analysis, and direct DNA sequencing, it was found that 1 of 39 (2.6%) and 7 of 42 samples (17%) contained code-altering changes in the kinase domain of TbetaR-I and TbetaR-II, respectively. In 7betaR-I, a 3-bp deletion was found resulting in replacement of Arg and Glu at codon 237 and 238 by Lys. With TbetaR-II, mutations were found in the kinase, the extracellular, and the C-terminal domains. No frameshift mutations were detected; however, a silent population polymorphism (AAC-->AAT at codon 389) in TbetaR-II was found in 19 of 42 (44%) tumor samples. These results suggest that alteration in TbetaR-II, but not TbetaR-I, has an important role in the development of endometrial carcinoma.

Abstract
Objectives To compare the effect of femoral bone tunnel configuration on tendon-bone healing in an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction animal model. Methods Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using the plantaris tendon as graft material was performed on both knees of 24 rabbits (48 knees) to mimic ACL reconstruction by two different suspensory fixation devices for graft fixation. For the adjustable fixation device model (Socket group; group S), a 5 mm deep socket was created in the lateral femoral condyle (LFC) of the right knee. For the fixed-loop model (Tunnel group; group T), a femoral tunnel penetrating the LFC was created in the left knee. Animals were sacrificed at four and eight weeks after surgery for histological evaluation and biomechanical testing. Results Histologically, both groups showed a mixture of direct and indirect healing patterns at four weeks, whereas only indirect healing patterns were observed in both groups at eight weeks. No significant histological differences were seen between the two groups at four and eight weeks in the roof zone (four weeks, S: mean 4.8 sd 1.7, T: mean 4.5 sd 0.5, p = 0.14; eight weeks, S: mean 5.8 sd 0.8, T: mean 4.8 sd 1.8, p = 0.88, Mann-Whitney U test) or side zone (four weeks, S: mean 5.0 sd 1.2, T: mean 4.8 sd 0.4, p = 0.43; eight weeks, S: mean 5.3 sd 0.8,T: mean 5.5 sd 0.8, p = 0.61, Mann-Whitney U test) . Similarly, no significant difference was seen in the maximum failure load between group S and group T at four (15.6 sd 9.0N and 13.1 sd 5.6N) or eight weeks (12.6 sd 3.6N and 17.1 sd 6.4N, respectively). Conclusion Regardless of bone tunnel configuration, tendon-bone healing after ACL reconstruction primarily occurred through indirect healing. No significant histological or mechanical differences were observed between adjustable and fixed-loop femoral cortical suspension methods. Cite this article: Y. Sato, R. Akagi, Y. Akatsu, Y.

Abstract
Bm and A1 Bm phenotypes are the most frequent ABO variants in the Japanese population. The B antigen on Bm red blood cells is only detectable by adsorption and elution tests, and plasma B-transferase activity is usually detected at half or less levels compared with that of common B. Recently, a B allele lacking an erythroid cell-specific transcription enhancer in intron 1 of the ABO gene was identified from individuals with Bm and A1 Bm phenotypes, which could explain the unique serologic properties of Bm . In the Japanese Red Cross Society, eight Blood Centers tested blood samples from donors throughout Japan and collected blood samples from 888 Bm and 415 A1 Bm individuals. DNA analysis revealed that 1300 of 1303 (99·77%) individuals had the B allele with a 5·8 kb deletion (c.28 + 5110_10889del), which included the enhancer element.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE The rare Ko phenotype lacks all 36 antigens in the Kell blood system. The molecular basis of the Ko phenotype has been investigated, and more than 40 silent KEL alleles are reported by many investigators. The majority of silent alleles are the KEL*02 background. Here, we report molecular genetic analysis of the KEL gene in Japanese individuals with the Ko phenotype. MATERIALS AND METHODS The Ko phenotype was screened from Japanese blood donors for several years using monoclonal anti-Ku or anti-K14 by an automated blood grouping system PK7300. Kell-related antigens were typed by standard tube tests. Genomic DNA was extracted from the blood samples, and KEL gene was analysed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and Sanger sequencing. RESULTS We collected 35 Ko blood samples with K-k-, Kp(a-b-), Js(a-b-) and K14-. PCR and sequence analysis revealed that 11 individuals were homozygous for a mutant KEL allele with a c.299G>C (p.Cys100Ser) mutation (rs. 200268316). Three individuals were homozygous for the KEL*02N.24 allele that is c.715G>T (p.Glu239*), and one individual was homozygous for the KEL*02N.40 allele that is c.1474C>T (p.Arg492*). Five individuals were homozygous for novel KEL alleles with single-nucleotide mutations, four individuals had a c.2175delC (p.Pro725 fs*43), and one individual had a c.328delA (p.Arg110 fs*79). The remaining 15 individuals were compound heterozygous, and eight new alleles were identified from them. CONCLUSIONS We identified three known and ten new silent KEL alleles from Japanese individuals with the Ko phenotype. The KEL allele with the c.299G>C (p.Cys100Ser) mutation was the most frequent.

Abstract
Objectives The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) on mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) proliferation in vitro and to determine whether pre-microfracture systemic administration of G-CSF (a bone marrow stimulant) could improve the quality of repaired tissue of a full-thickness cartilage defect in a rabbit model. Methods MSCs from rabbits were cultured in a control medium and medium with G-CSF (low-dose: 4 μg, high-dose: 40 μg). At one, three, and five days after culturing, cells were counted. Differential potential of cultured cells were examined by stimulating them with a osteogenic, adipogenic and chondrogenic medium. A total of 30 rabbits were divided into three groups. The low-dose group (n = 10) received 10 μg/kg of G-CSF daily, the high-dose group (n = 10) received 50 μg/kg daily by subcutaneous injection for three days prior to creating cartilage defects. The control group (n = 10) was administered saline for three days. At 48 hours after the first injection, a 5.2 mm diameter cylindrical osteochondral defect was created in the femoral trochlea. At four and 12 weeks post-operatively, repaired tissue was evaluated macroscopically and microscopically. Results The cell count in the low-dose G-CSF medium was significantly higher than that in the control medium. The differentiation potential of MSCs was preserved after culturing them with G-CSF. Macroscopically, defects were filled and surfaces were smoother in the G-CSF groups than in the control group at four weeks. At 12 weeks, the quality of repaired cartilage improved further, and defects were almost completely filled in all groups. Microscopically, at four weeks, defects were partially filled with hyaline-like cartilage in the G-CSF groups. At 12 weeks, defects were repaired with hyaline-like cartilage in all groups. Conclusions G-CSF promoted proliferation of MSCs in vitro. The systemic administration of G-CSF promoted the repair of damaged cartilage possibly through increasing the number of MSCs in a rabbit model. Cite this article: T. Sasaki, R. Akagi, Y. Akatsu, T.

Abstract
This study aimed to examine whether citrus juice fermented with Lactobacillus plantarum YIT 0132 (LP0132), which was pasteurised after fermentation, could alleviate the symptoms of perennial allergic rhinitis in a double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group trial. Subjects with perennial allergic rhinitis consumed LP0132-fermented juice (n=17) or unfermented citrus juice (placebo; n=16) once a day for 8 weeks. During the pre-intervention and intervention periods, the subjects recorded nasal symptoms (number of sneezing attacks, number of nose-blowing incidents, and stuffy nose score). The primary endpoint, nasal symptoms score (NSS), was scored from 0 to 4 according to the 'Practical Guideline for the Management of Allergic Rhinitis in Japan 2009' using a combination of the three nasal symptom items. Blood samples were collected at pre-intervention and at 8 weeks after commencing the intervention. There were several significant improvements not only in the LP0132 group but also in the placebo group because of potential anti-allergic effects of citrus. Compared with the placebo group, the LP0132 group showed a significant reduction in the NSS and stuffy nose score during the intervention period. Also, the LP0132 group, but not the placebo group, showed significant attenuation of type 2 helper T cells (Th2 cells)/helper T cells, serum total immunoglobulin E (IgE), and eosinophil cationic protein (ECP), and showed significant augmentation of type 1 helper T cells (Th1 cells)/Th2 cells at 8 weeks of intervention compared with baseline. It is suggested that daily intake of fermented citrus juice containing heat-killed LP0132 has beneficial effects on symptoms of perennial allergic rhinitis, and these benefits may be associated with the attenuation of Th2 cells, total IgE, and ECP via the immunomodulating activities of LP0132.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To examine the effect of the histology of carcinoma and sarcoma components on survival outcome of uterine carcinosarcoma. PATIENTS AND METHODS A multicenter retrospective study was conducted to examine uterine carcinosarcoma cases that underwent primary surgical staging. Archived slides were examined and histologic patterns were grouped based on carcinoma (low-grade versus high-grade) and sarcoma (homologous versus heterologous) components, correlating to clinico-pathological demographics and outcomes. RESULTS Among 1192 cases identified, 906 cases were evaluated for histologic patterns (carcinoma/sarcoma) with high-grade/homologous (40.8%) being the most common type followed by high-grade/heterologous (30.9%), low-grade/homologous (18.0%), and low-grade/heterologous (10.3%). On multivariate analysis, high-grade/heterologous (5-year rate, 34.0%, P = 0.024) and high-grade/homologous (45.8%, P = 0.017) but not low-grade/heterologous (50.6%, P = 0.089) were independently associated with decreased progression-free survival (PFS) compared with low-grade/homologous (60.3%). In addition, older age, residual disease at surgery, large tumor, sarcoma dominance, deep myometrial invasion, lymphovascular space invasion, and advanced-stage disease were independently associated with decreased PFS (all, P < 0.01). Both postoperative chemotherapy (5-year rates, 48.6% versus 39.0%, P < 0.001) and radiotherapy (50.1% versus 44.1%, P = 0.007) were significantly associated with improved PFS in univariate analysis. However, on multivariate analysis, only postoperative chemotherapy remained an independent predictor for improved PFS [hazard ratio (HR) 0.34, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.27-0.43, P < 0.001]. On univariate analysis, significant treatment benefits for PFS were seen with ifosfamide for low-grade carcinoma (82.0% versus 49.8%, P = 0.001), platinum for high-grade carcinoma (46.9% versus 32.4%, P = 0.034) and homologous sarcoma (53.1% versus 38.2%, P = 0.017), and anthracycline for heterologous sarcoma (66.2% versus 39.3%, P = 0.005). Conversely, platinum, taxane, and anthracycline for low-grade carcinoma, and anthracycline for homologous sarcoma had no effect on PFS compared with non-chemotherapy group (all, P > 0.05). On multivariate analysis, ifosfamide for low-grade/homologous (HR 0.21, 95% CI 0.07-0.63, P = 0.005), platinum for high-grade/homologous (HR 0.36, 95% CI 0.22-0.60, P < 0.001), and anthracycline for high-grade/heterologous (HR 0.30, 95% CI 0.14-0.62, P = 0.001) remained independent predictors for improved PFS. Analyses of 1096 metastatic sites showed that carcinoma components tended to spread lymphatically, while sarcoma components tended to spread loco-regionally (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Characterization of histologic pattern provides valuable information in the management of uterine carcinosarcoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Impaired drug transport is an important factor that reduces the efficacy of anticancer agents against pancreatic cancer. Here, we report a novel combination chemotherapy using gemcitabine (GEM) and internalised-RGD (iRGD) peptide, which enhances tumour-specific drug penetration by binding neuropilin-1 (NRP1) receptor. METHODS A total of five pancreatic cancer murine models (two cell line-based xenografts (CXs) and three tumour grafts (TGs)) were treated with either GEM (100 mg kg(-1), q3d × 4) alone or GEM plus iRGD peptide (8 μmol kg(-1)). Evaluation of NRP1 expression in xenografts and 48 clinical cancer specimens was performed by immunohistochemistry (IHC). RESULTS We identified a subset of pancreatic cancer models that showed NRP1 overexpression sensitive to iRGD co-administration. Treatment with GEM plus iRGD peptide resulted in a significant tumour reduction compared with GEM monotherapy in CXs, but not remarkable in TGs. Potential targets of iRGD were characterised as cases showing NRP1 overexpression (IHC-2+/3+), and these accounted for 45.8% of the clinical specimens. CONCLUSIONS Internalised RGD peptide enhances the effects of co-administered drugs in pancreatic cancer models, its efficacy is however only appreciable in those employing cell lines. Therefore, the clinical application needs to be given careful consideration.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Emesis is one of the major non-hematologic toxicity caused by chemotherapy. The control of Chemotherapy Induced Nausea and Vomiting (CINV) is conducted to a life lengthening. Recently, CINV is controlled by the second generation 5-HT3 receptor blocker (Palonosetron; PALO) and a NK-1 receptor antagonist (Aprepitant; APR). It has been shown that dexamethasone (DEX) with 5-HT3 receptor blocker improves acute / delayed CINV. However, it has not been determined the medication schedule for DEX with PALO and APR. The purpose of this study is evaluated the efficiency of palonosetron, aprepitant and dexamethasone for day1 with or without dexamethasone on days2 and 3. This is final result of current study.
Methods: Breast cancer patients who administered anthracyclin drug regimen have been eligible from April, 2011 to June, 2013. The patients were randomised to group A (PALO/APR/DEX one day) and group B (PALO/APR/DEX three days).
Trial designAprepitant125mg80mg80mg Palonosetron0.75mg dexamethasone9.9mg6.6 mg or placebo6.6 mg or placebo Chemotherapydo days12345
Eighty patients were estimate as study samples. The primary endpoint was a complete response (CR) rate of vomiting, the secondary endpoint was a complete control (CC) rate of vomiting.
Results: Eighty two patients were enrolled in this study. There was not inferiority about CR rate of five days after chemotherapy (81.1% of group A, 82.1% of group B). CC rate of group A (62.2%) was better than that of group B (46.2%). However, CC rate was no significant difference between group A and B. There was no significant difference about any level of nausea between group A and B.
Conclusions: One day of dexamethasone with Palonosetron and Aprepitant treatment is enough to control the emesis of high emetogenic chemotherapeutic agents.
