Abstract
BACKGROUND To date, no studies have compared the treatment outcomes of second-line therapies in patients with metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). This study retrospectively evaluated the efficacy of cabozantinib and axitinib as second-line treatments in patients with metastatic ccRCC who previously received immune-oncology combination therapy. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients with metastatic ccRCC treated with cabozantinib and axitinib as second-line therapy after nivolumab-ipilimumab treatment were identified among 243 patients with RCC treated between August 1, 2018 and January 31, 2022 at 34 institutions belonging to the Japanese Urological Oncology Group. Patients were assessed for treatment outcomes, including progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival, objective response rate (ORR), and incidence rate of treatment-related adverse events (AEs). RESULTS Forty-eight patients treated with cabozantinib and 60 treated with axitinib as second-line therapy after nivolumab-ipilimumab treatment for metastatic ccRCC were identified. The median PFS (95% confidence interval) was 11.0 months (9.0-16.0) with cabozantinib and 9.5 months (6.0-13.0) with axitinib. The ORRs were 37.5% (cabozantinib) and 38.3% (axitinib). The rates of any-grade AEs and grade ≥3 AEs were 79.2% (cabozantinib) versus 63.3% (axitinib; P = .091) and 35.4% (cabozantinib) versus 23.3% (axitinib; P = .202), respectively. In the poor-risk group, PFS was longer in the cabozantinib group than in the axitinib group (P = .033). CONCLUSION The efficacy and safety of cabozantinib and axitinib were comparable. In the poor-risk group, cabozantinib was more effective than axitinib. These findings provide valuable insights into the selection of second-line treatment options after nivolumab-ipilimumab treatment in patients with metastatic ccRCC.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Paratesticular cellular angiofibroma is a rare benign mesenchymal tumor. The optimal management is surgical resection due to the difficulty of preoperative accurate diagnosis. CASE PRESENTATION A 51-year-old Japanese male visited our hospital complaining of asymptomatic left scrotal swelling. Physical examination revealed a nontender elastic paratesticular mass (5.5 cm in diameter). Although testicular germ cell tumor was ruled out clinically, the possibility of malignant potential remained for the tumor. Since the patient consented to complete resection, a transinguinal radical orchiectomy was performed. The pathological diagnosis revealed cellular angiofibroma. The patient recovered without perioperative complications, and no apparent recurrence was observed at 5 years after surgery. CONCLUSION The pathological findings were compatible for cellular angiofibroma. The tumor was successfully resected, and no apparent recurrence was observed at 5 years after surgery.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Methotrexate induces lymphoproliferative disorders on rare occasions; however, its pathogenesis remains unknown. A clinical diagnosis based on imaging studies alone is often difficult. CASE PRESENTATION A 57-year-old Japanese woman was referred to our department for the evaluation of multiple lung and hepatic nodules that developed during methotrexate treatment for rheumatoid arthritis. Since she had a history of nephrectomy for localized renal cell carcinoma, multiple lung and hepatic metastases were initially considered. However, pathological diagnosis of the lung nodules (needle biopsy) revealed methotrexate-associated polymorphic-type lymphoproliferative disorders. After methotrexate discontinuation, continuous smooth shrinkage of the lung and liver lymphoproliferative disorders was observed. CONCLUSION Methotrexate-associated lymphoproliferative disorders should be considered in the event of newly appearing neoplastic lesions, even during follow-up for renal cell carcinoma, if methotrexate is being administered.

Abstract
Epithelioid angiomyolipoma (EAML) is a rare variant of AML with malignant potential. It is occasionally difficult to distinguish EAML from renal cell carcinoma (RCC) on imaging. A 72-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital for the treatment of a left renal tumor with relatively high blood flow and a tumor thrombus extending to the inferior vena cava, suggesting RCC. The patient underwent presurgical combination therapy with axitinib and pembrolizumab. This treatment significantly shortened the thrombus, and radical nephrectomy was performed. The pathological findings were compatible with EAML, and the treatment effects were observed. We report a case treated pre-surgically with a combined therapy of pembrolizumab and axitinib, with a favorable response as a treatment option for EAML.

Abstract
An 85 year-old man was referred to our hospital because of a relapse of abscess after open surgical drainage of the right scrotum. Computed tomography (CT) showed fluid accumulation in the right scrotum and around the membranous urethra. The abscess was controlled by an open surgical drainage of the right scrotum, CT guided percutaneous drainage of the periurethral abscess and administration of antibiotics. However, the scrotal abscess recurred after 4 weeks. CT showed an enlarged abscess, and retrograde urethrography showed an urethral diverticulum extending into the scrotum associated with a scrotal abscess. Endoscopic urethral diverticulum unroofing and cautery were performed. The urinary catheter was removed 2 days after the operation. The abscess has been resolved without recurrence.

Abstract
Sister Mary Joseph’s nodules (SMJNs) are umbilical skin metastases of various abdominopelvic malignancies, and they rarely originate from renal cell carcinomas. Radiotherapy is typically used to treat the nodules as a palliative intention. We report a rare case of SMJN that originated from clear cell renal cell carcinoma, which was treated with external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) and interstitial brachytherapy (ISBT). A 74-year-old male patient with a history of left renal cell carcinoma developed an umbilical nodule which was diagnosed as SMJN. The patient underwent EBRT (30 Gy in 10 fractions) and ISBT (12 Gy in two fractions), leading the nodule to complete resolution. This case report might support that radiotherapy, including ISBT, is effective for the treatment of SMJN from renal cell carcinoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Staphylococcus epidermidis is a common cause of health care-associated bacteremia, especially in patients with an indwelling medical device. However, S. epidermidis is an uncommon causative organism in catheter-associated urinary tract infection, and rare pyelonephritis without any indwelling urinary device. To our knowledge, there are few cases reported of bacteremia secondary to urinary tract infection. We report two cases of pyelonephritis with bacteremia by S. epidermidis in male patients with unilateral nephrolithiasis and review prior case reports. CASE PRESENTATION Case 1: 74-year-old man with a history of diabetes and overactive bladder had fever and pyuria with a right nephrolithiasis on abdominal CT scan. Case 2: 79-year-old man with a history of diabetes and post-myocardial infarction status had fever with a left nephrolithiasis on abdominal CT scan. In both cases, both the urine culture collected at ureteral stenting and blood culture were positive for S. epidermidis. We initiated intravenous antibiotics in these patients in addition to ureteral stenting. CONCLUSIONS S. epidermidis is acknowledged as an uncommon pathogen that can cause bacteremia secondary to pyelonephritis without an indwelling urinary device. Clinicians should consider the possibility of pyelonephritis due to S. epidermidis if the pathogen is identified in blood and urine in patients with nephrolithiasis.

Abstract
Epithelioid sarcomas are rare soft tissue neoplasms which occur more often in young people. They tend to relapse, metastatize and show poor prognosis. Proximal-type epithelioid sarcomas arise from the more proximal part of body and are more malignant than distal-type epithelioid sarcomas. We present a case of proximal-type epithelioid sarcoma which occurred in the perineum. A 24-year-old male visited our hospital with the chief complaint of pain in the perineum. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging showed a tumor 30×23×17 mm in diameter in the perineal region. The tumor was excised regionally and the pathological examination with immunohistochemical staining revealed that the tumor was proximal-type epithelioid sarcoma. The patient is free of recurrence and metastasis one year after local excision.

Abstract
For estrogen-responsive B-1F cells, established from estrogen-responsive mouse Leydig cell tumor, it has been reported that the 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) metabolic pathway appears to be associated with cell growth. The addition of 5-LOX inhibitor 2-(12-hydroxydodeca-5,10-diyl)-3,5,6-trimethyl-1,4-benzoquinone (AA861) to the medium resulted in a dose-dependent increase in cell yield as described previously. When the growth of the palpable tumors was measured, AA861 had stimulated in vivo tumor growth in adult male mouse inoculated B-1F cells. The effects of AA861 and 17beta-estradiol (E2) on the contents of various arachidonic acid metabolites in B-1F cells and their conditioned medium were examined. Although AA861 and E2 decreased the contents of leukotrienes (LTs), the two did not significantly change those of prostaglandins, thromboxan, prostacyclin, 12-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (HETE) and 15-HETE. In immunohistochemical study B-1F cells show positive staining for 5-LOX in the E2-depleted condition, while E2 decreased the expression of 5-LOX. The decrease of the intensities of 79-kDa 5-LOX protein and 403-bp RT-PCR product bands was observed. The growth of Morpholino-anti oligo delivered B-1F cells was higher than that of Standard control oligo delivered cells. The delivery of Morpholino-anti oligo into B-1F cells caused the decrease of contents of LTs and 5-HETE in the cells and medium, and the reduction of 5-LOX activity. When LTD4 was added in the culture medium, the increasing concentrations of LTD4 resulted in a significant inhibition of cell yields of E2-treated B-1F cells. Morphological changes such as nuclear condensation and fragmentation, and DNA ladder pattern were demonstrated in E2-stimulated B-1F cells treated with LTD4 as well as in control cells cultured in the basal medium. These results implicate that 5-LOX at least plays an important role in the growth of B-1F cells and LD4 induces the apoptosis of B-1F cells.

Abstract
Individual protein domains and two domains in combination were prepared by enzymatic and chemical cleavage of turkey ovomucoid followed by isolation and purification by size-exclusion and ion-exchange chromatography. Silica bonded-phase HPLC columns were made from either whole or isolated domains of turkey ovomucoid. The protein columns were tested for chiral recognition by their abilities to resolve enantiomers among a wide range of racemates. The columns made from whole turkey ovomucoid displayed chiral activity toward many racemates, where as a combination of the first and second domain resolved only a selected number of aromatic weak bases. The first and second domains independently gave no appreciable chiral activity. The turkey ovomucoid third domain exhibited enantioselective protein binding for fused-ring aromatic weak acids. Glycosylation of the third domain did not affect chiral recognition. Titration of the third domain with model compounds in conjunction with NMR measurements enabled the identification of the amino acids responsible for binding. Molecular modeling of the ligand-protein complexation provided insights into the ability of a protein surface to discriminate enantiomers on the basis of multiple intermolecular interactions.

Abstract
Crystal growth of monohydrogen potassium L-tartrate in an ethanolic aqueous solution was specifically inhibited by d-catechin, but not by either its epimeric isomer at C3, l-epicatechin or by gallic acid and caffeic acid. 3D-Structure similarity search of d-catechin with two molecules of the tartrate and docking study of d-catechin with the crystal model of the tartrate suggested that d-catechin mimics a structure consisting of the two tartrate molecules in the inhibition. Differences in the conformation of the catechol moieties of d-catechin and l-epicatechin may explain the distinct inhibitory effects of the epimeric isomers.

Abstract
A high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for the determination of drug enantiomers in serum was developed. The method involves direct injection of serum samples on to an ovomucoid-bonded column, which is prepared by bonding of ovomucoid proteins to an aminopropyl-silica gel by the N,N'-disuccinimidyl carbonate activation method and separation of drug enantiomers on the column using a mixture of phosphate buffer and an organic solvent. High recoveries of serum proteins were obtained using eluent pH values of 3, 4, 6 and 7 at phosphate buffer concentrations above 50 mM, whereas the recovery was ca. 70% at an eluent pH of 5. The recovery of each enantiomer of basic and acidic drugs from serum was almost 100%.
