Abstract
Patients with cancer die from cardiac dysfunction second only to the disease itself. Cardiotoxicity caused by anticancer drugs has been emphasized as a possible cause; however, the details remain unclear. To investigate this mechanism, we treated rat cardiomyoblast H9c2 cells with sunitinib, lapatinib, 5-fluorouracil, and cisplatin to examine their effects. All anticancer drugs increased ROS, lipid peroxide, and iron (II) levels in the mitochondria and decreased glutathione peroxidase-4 levels and the GSH/GSSG ratio. Against this background, mitochondrial iron (II) accumulates through the unregulated expression of haem oxygenase-1 and ferrochelatase. Anticancer-drug-induced cell death was suppressed by N-acetylcysteine, deferoxamine, and ferrostatin, indicating ferroptosis. Anticancer drug treatment impairs mitochondrial DNA and inhibits oxidative phosphorylation in H9c2 cells. Similar results were observed in the hearts of cancer-free rats treated with anticancer drugs in vitro. In contrast, treatment with pterostilbene inhibited the induction of ferroptosis and rescued the energy restriction induced by anticancer drugs both in vitro and in vivo. These findings suggest that induction of ferroptosis and inhibition of oxidative phosphorylation are mechanisms by which anticancer drugs cause myocardial damage. As pterostilbene ameliorates these mechanisms, it is expected to have significant clinical applications.

Abstract
PDZ domain-containing RING finger family protein 3 (PDZRN3) is expressed in various tissues, including the skeletal muscle. Although PDZRN3 plays a crucial role in the terminal differentiation of myoblasts and synaptic growth/maturation in myogenesis, the role of this molecule in postnatal muscles is completely unknown despite its lifelong expression in myofibers. In this study, we aimed to elucidate the function of PDZRN3 in mature myofibers using myofiber-specific conditional knockout mice. After tamoxifen injection, PDZRN3 deficiency was confirmed in both fast and slow myofibers of Myf6-CreERT2; Pdzrn3flox/flox (Pdzrn3mcKO) mice. Transcriptome analysis of the skeletal muscles of Pdzrn3mcKO mice identified differentially expressed genes, including muscle atrophy-related genes such as Smox, Amd1/2, and Mt1/2, suggesting that PDZRN3 is involved in the homeostatic maintenance of postnatal muscles. PDZRN3 deficiency caused muscle atrophy, predominantly in fast-twitch (type II) myofibers, and reduced muscle strength. While myofiber-specific PDZRN3 deficiency did not influence endplate morphology or expression of neuromuscular synaptic formation-related genes in postnatal muscles, indicating that the relationship between PDZRN3 and neuromuscular junctions might be limited during muscle development. Considering that the expression of Pdzrn3 in skeletal muscles was significantly lower in aged mice than in mature adult mice, we speculated that the PDZRN3-mediated muscle maintenance system might be associated with the pathophysiology of age-related muscle decline, such as sarcopenia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the association between plasma N-terminal pro-atrial natriuretic peptide concentration and glomerular filtration rate in dogs. MATERIALS AND METHODS Dogs were classified into four categories by bodyweight. Dogs were divided into four groups (Groups 1 to 4) based on glomerular filtration rate estimates using plasma iohexol clearance per bodyweight category. Generalised linear models were built to explore the relationship between plasma N-terminal pro-atrial natriuretic peptide concentration and glomerular filtration rate and the effect of confounders on plasma N-terminal pro-atrial natriuretic peptide concentration. RESULTS Fifty-three dogs were included (Group 1, 25; Group 2, seven; Group 3, five; and Group 4, 16). The medians (interquartile range) N-terminal pro-atrial natriuretic peptide concentrations for Groups 1 to 4 were 7224 pg/mL (4766 to 10,254 mg/dL), 8958 pg/mL (4935 to 11,271 mg/dL), 9280 pg/mL (9195 to 10,384 mg/dL) and 12,683 pg/mL (9133 to 19,217 mg/dL), respectively. Group 4, estimated to have the highest reduction in glomerular filtration rate, had a higher plasma N-terminal pro-atrial natriuretic peptide concentration than Groups 1 to 3. Based on the final generalised linear model, influencing factors for plasma N-terminal pro-atrial natriuretic peptide concentration were plasma iohexol clearance (-0.136; 95% confidence interval, -0.227 to -0.046) and bodyweight (-0.058; 95% confidence interval, -0.098 to -0.018). CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE N-terminal pro-atrial natriuretic peptide concentration is associated with the glomerular filtration rate.

Abstract
High mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) is known to be a chemotactic factor for mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs), but the effect of post-translational modification on its function is not clear. In this study, we hypothesized that differences in the oxidation state of HMGB1 would lead to differences in the function of MSCs in cancer. In human colorectal cancer, MSCs infiltrating into the stroma were correlated with liver metastasis and serum HMGB1. In animal models, oxidized HMGB1 mobilized 3-fold fewer MSCs to subcutaneous tumors compared to reduced HMGB1. Reduced HMGB1 inhibited proliferation of mouse bone marrow MSCs (BM-MSCs) and induced differentiation into osteoblasts and vascular pericytes, whereas oxidized HMGB1 promoted proliferation and increased stemness, and no differentiation was observed. When BM-MSCs pretreated with oxidized HMGB1 were co-cultured with syngeneic cancer cells, cell proliferation and stemness of cancer cells were increased, and tumorigenesis and drug resistance were promoted. In contrast, co-culture with reduced HMGB1-pretreated BM-MSCs did not enhance stemness. In an animal orthotopic transplantation colorectal cancer model, oxidized HMGB1, but not reduced HMGB1, promoted liver metastasis with intratumoral MSC chemotaxis. Thus, oxidized HMGB1 reprograms MSCs and promotes cancer malignancy. The oxidized HMGB1-MSC axis may be an important target for cancer therapy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Tuberculin skin test (TST) has been used to diagnose tuberculosis (TB) and latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI). However, in Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccinated patients, TST tends to produce false-positive results. According to the previous vaccination schedule, Japanese people were mandated to receive up to three doses of BCG-vaccine. The vaccination schedule was changed in 2003 and as per the new schedule, only infants are administered a dose of BCG vaccine. Our hypothesis is that this change can lead to a reduction in the cross-reaction to TST. METHODS We evaluated the TST results obtained from 1097 recruits from six defense camps and 667 recruits from an air base. These TST data were divided into two groups according to the date of birth: a new group and an old group according to the BCG immunization schedule. We then analyzed positive and negative reaction of TST and erythema sizes. RESULTS We confirmed that the change in BCG-vaccination schedule significantly decreased TST false-positive reaction (Pmeta = 1.4 × 10-18; risk ratio = 0.83; 95% confidence interval: 0.80-0.87) and erythema size (Pmeta = 1.1 × 10-4; mean difference = 6.6 mm; 95% confidence interval: 3.2 mm-9.9 mm). CONCLUSIONS We showed the reduction in BCG cross-reaction to TST, in the new BCG vaccination schedule group, compared to the old group, we also have extracted information on the improvement in the specificity of TST for LTBI and TB diagnosis, which resulted from BCG schedule change.

Abstract
Myocardial damage in cancer patients is emphasized as a cause of death; however, there are not many murine cachexia models to evaluate cancer-derived heart disorder. Using the mouse cachexia model that we established previously, we investigated myocardial damage in tumor-bearing mice. In cachexic mice, decreased heart weight and myocardial volume, and dilated left ventricular lumen, and atrophied cardiomyocytes were noted. The cardiomyocytes also showed accumulated 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine, decreased leucine zipper and EF-hand-containing transmembrane protein-1, and increased microtubule-associated protein light chain3-II. Levels of tumor necrosis factor-α and high-mobility group box-1 proteins in the myocardium were increased, and nuclear factor κB, a signaling molecule associated with these proteins, was activated. When rat cardiomyoblasts (H9c2 cells) were treated with mouse cachexia model ascites and subjected to flux analysis, both oxidative phosphorylation and glycolysis were suppressed, and the cells were in a quiescent state. These results are in good agreement with those previously reported on cancerous myocardial damage. The established mouse cachexia model can therefore be considered useful for analyzing cancer-derived myocardial damage.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To examine the relationship between fibroblast growth factor-23 levels, chronic kidney disease severity and mineral metabolic disorders associated to chronic kidney disease in dogs. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifteen control and 75 chronic kidney disease dogs were retrospectively included. Serum fibroblast growth factor-23 concentration and other phosphate metabolite parameters were compared between controls and each International Renal Interest Society stage. Multiple regression analysis was performed to determine the predictors of fibroblast growth factor-23. RESULTS Serum fibroblast growth factor-23 concentrations were significantly higher in dogs with IRIS stages 2, 3 and 4 chronic kidney disease than those in dogs in control group and with stage 1 and increased along with the severity of chronic kidney disease. Compared with control dogs, serum intact parathyroid hormone significantly increased from stage 2 and serum phosphorus concentrations increased in dogs with stage 4. In dogs with stage 2, fibroblast growth factor-23 levels significantly increased in those with hyperphosphatemia compared with those with normophosphatemia. While eight of 26 (30.8%) dogs with stage 2 developed hyperparathyroidism (intact parathyroid hormone>8.5 ng/L), 19 (73.1%) dogs with stage 2 had elevated fibroblast growth factor-23 levels above the reference range (>528 pg/mL). Log creatinine, log intact parathyroid hormone and log product of total calcium and phosphorus were independent predictors of log fibroblast growth factor-23. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE This preliminary study suggests that canine fibroblast growth factor-23 might be involved in mineral metabolic disorders associated to chronic kidney disease in dogs, and this factor could be potentially used as an early marker for this condition.

Abstract
Cancer‐derived myocardial damage is an important cause of death in cancer patients. However, the development of dietary interventions for treating such damage has not been advanced. Here, we investigated the effect of dietary intervention with lauric acid (LAA) and glucose, which was effective against skeletal muscle sarcopenia in a mouse cachexia model, on myocardial damage. Treatment of H9c2 rat cardiomyoblasts with lauric acid promoted mitochondrial respiration and increased ATP production by Seahorse flux analysis, but did not increase oxidative stress. Glycolysis was also promoted by LAA. In contrast, mitochondrial respiration and ATP production were suppressed, and oxidative stress was increased in an in vitro cachexia model in which cardiomyoblasts were treated with mouse cachexia ascites. Ascites‐treated H9c2 cells with concurrent treatment with LAA and high glucose showed that mitochondrial respiration and glycolysis were promoted more than that of the control, and ATP was restored to the level of the control. Oxidative stress was also reduced by the combined treatment. In the mouse cachexia model, myocardiac atrophy and decreased levels of a marker of muscle maturity, SDS‐soluble MYL1, were observed. When LAA in CE‐2 diet was orally administered alone, no significant rescue was observed in the cancer‐derived myocardial disorder. In contrast, combined oral administration of LAA and glucose recovered myocardial atrophy and MYL1 to levels observed in the control without increase in the cancer weight. Therefore, it is suggested that dietary intervention using a combination of LAA and glucose for cancer cachexia might improve cancer‐derived myocardial damage.

Abstract
Four cases (age range, 60-78 years, male:female = 1:3) who had undergone cholecystectomy presented with fever (n = 1), right abdominal pain with fever (n = 1), appetite loss with fever (n = 1), and absence of symptoms (n = 1). Computed tomography (CT) showed an irregular-shaped invasive mass or fluid collection in the right Morrison's pouch, right paracolic gutter, gallbladder fossa, subphrenic space, or abdominal wall. CT and ultrasound revealed gallstones in the granuloma in 3 cases and an abscess in one case. The inflammatory process induced by dropped gallstones may mimic peritoneal malignancies. Awareness of cholecystectomy and the detection of gallstones in the lesion are essential for the diagnosis of dropped gallstones.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION/OBJECTIVES The American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine (ACVIM) guidelines suggest that pimobendan should be initiated in dogs which meet all criteria of stage B2 myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD): murmur intensity ≥ 3/6, left atrial-to-aortic ratio ≥ 1.6, normalized left ventricular internal diameter in diastole ≥ 1.7, and vertebral heart size > 10.5. Recently, a new radiographic index for left atrial enlargement, vertebral left atrial size (VLAS), was proposed. The objective of the present study was to evaluate whether VLAS is useful in staging MMVD and if it can distinguish between ACVIM stages B1 and B2. ANIMALS Ninety-seven client-owned dogs with MMVD were evaluated and classified as ACVIM stage B1, B2, or C-D. MATERIALS AND METHODS The echocardiographs and radiographs of all the dogs were retrospectively evaluated to obtain left atrial-to-aortic ratio, normalized left ventricular internal diameter in diastole, and VLAS values. The data were analyzed to assess the correlation between these measurements and VLAS, and the optimal cutoff value of VLAS was determined. RESULTS A VLAS cutoff value of 2.6 provided the greatest diagnostic accuracy for identification of dogs with ACVIM stage B2 MMVD (area under the curve, 0.96; sensitivity, 95%; specificity, 84%). A VLAS ≥2.5 exhibited the highest sensitivity (sensitivity, 100%; specificity, 78%), and a VLAS ≥ 3.1 exhibited the highest specificity (sensitivity, 47%; specificity, 100%). CONCLUSIONS VLAS is a helpful index for monitoring MMVD using radiography. A VLAS cutoff value of 2.5 could be used to identify dogs that may benefit from echocardiography to determine if they have reached ACVIM stage B2.

Abstract
Published data on Factor C activity at various LPS and Lipid A concentrations (Nakamura et al. in Eur J Biochem 176:89, 1988; Kobayashi et al. in J Biol Chem 37:25987, 2014) were rearranged to show that Factor C exhibited its maximum activity at a specific concentration of LPS. A statistical model was proposed for examining whether a single LPS molecule binding activates Factor C (monomeric activation) or dimerization of Factor C is necessary for the activation (dimeric activation). In the monomeric activation model the plots of the relative activity of Factor C against the molar ratio of LPS to Factor C were different from those in the published data. The plots in the dimeric activation model lie on a bell-shaped curve, whatever the Factor C concentration, matching the published data and indicating the appropriateness of that model. We suggest that Factor C is activated by multiple molecular interactions of Factor C with LPS aggregates on which it dimerises and that this explains why larger aggregates are less effective at activating Factor C than smaller ones.

Abstract
Necrosis-inducing anticancer drugs enhance high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) release during cell necrosis, and HMGB1-induced autophagy in skeletal muscle induces muscle atrophy. We evaluated the efficacy of magnetic hyperthermia therapy (MHT) using a low-energy magnetic field and self-controlled heating elements in tumor treatment. MHT-induced apoptosis by heating mouse subcutaneous tumors at 43°C using a heat-controlling iron-aluminum (Fe-Al) milling alloy. In contrast, MHT using Fe line-induced necrosis by heating to approximately 100°C. Furthermore, MHT with Fe-Al milling alloy reduced stemness. In hyperthermia using age line or Fe-Al milling alloy, both of them provided histological degeneration in skeletal muscle; however, qualitative differences were observed. MHT using Fe-line induced pronounced autophagy, decrease of myosin heavy chain content, and increase in serum HMGB1. In contrast, MHT using Fe-Al milling alloy induced heat shock protein 90 but no autophagy and decreased serum HMGB1. Therefore, MHT using Fe-Al milling alloy might be a good method for local treatment of tumors to reduce skeletal muscle atrophy.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle volume is associated with prognosis of cancer patients. Maintenance of skeletal muscle is an essential concern in cancer treatment. In nutritional intervention, it is important to focus on differences in metabolism between tumor and skeletal muscle. We examined the influence of oral intake of glucose (0%, 10%, 50%) and 2% medium‐chain fatty acid (lauric acid, LAA, C12:0) on tumor growth and skeletal muscle atrophy in mouse peritoneal metastasis models using CT26 mouse colon cancer cells and HT29 human colon cancer cells. After 2 weeks of experimental breeding, skeletal muscle and tumor were removed and analyzed. Glucose intake contributed to prevention of skeletal muscle atrophy in a sugar concentration‐dependent way and also promoted tumor growth. LAA ingestion elevated the level of skeletal muscle protein and suppressed tumor growth by inducing tumor‐selective oxidative stress production. When a combination of glucose and LAA was ingested, skeletal muscle mass increased and tumor growth was suppressed. Our results confirmed that although glucose is an important nutrient for the prevention of skeletal muscle atrophy, it may also foster tumor growth. However, the ingestion of LAA inhibited tumor growth, and its combination with glucose promoted skeletal muscle integrity and function, without stimulating tumor growth. These findings suggest novel strategies for the prevention of skeletal muscle atrophy.

Abstract
The crystallization behaviors of safflower and olive oils were investigated according to changes in volume and transmitted light intensity during isothermal storage at low temperature. The changes between the oils were significantly different even though their fatty acid compositions were similar, with oleic acid accounting for more than 75% (w/w) of the total oil. It was expected that minor components with high melting points would affect the crystallization behaviors of these oils. The crystallization processes of the oils were then analyzed using a kinetic model in which the oil crystallizes through two different processes. It is suggested that although the crystallization behaviors were apparently different, the crystallization mechanisms of these oils are essentially the same.

Abstract
[Purpose] We investigated whether an increase or decrease in subcutaneous fat mass
secondary to cardiac cachexia can be evaluated using diagnostic ultrasonography in
patients with heart failure. [Participant and Methods] We report a case of cardiac
cachexia in a patient in whom cachexia was confirmed by weight loss, decreased dietary
intake, and biochemical indicators measured by blood tests. We measured the subcutaneous
fat mass in the patient’s thigh using ultrasonic diagnostic equipment during the cachectic
state, as well as 1 and 2 months later. [Results] An increase in weight and
ultrasonographically documented femoral subcutaneous fat mass was confirmed by improvement
in heart failure-induced cachexia. [Conclusion] Clinically convenient ultrasonic
diagnostic equipment is useful to assess subcutaneous fat mass, which serves as an
indicator of the degree of cachexia.

Abstract
In clinical N0 (cN0) cases with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), a treatment selection is still controversial: elective neck dissection or watchful waiting. We focused on sentinel lymph node (SLN)-targeted therapy using the urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA)-dependent oncolytic Sendai virus "BioKnife." The objectives of this study were to investigate BioKnife migration into SLNs and elucidate its antitumor effect on lymph node metastases (LNM). We established an orthotopic nude mouse model of HNSCC, with LNM being frequently induced. We inoculated HSC-3-M3, human highly metastatic tongue squamous cell carcinoma cells, in the tongue of the nude mice, and after 2 weeks, we injected BioKnife into the primary tumor. We tracked BioKnife migration into the SLNs by immunostaining, RT-PCR, and an in vivo imaging system. We also examined its antitumor effects and mechanisms through serial section analysis of lymph nodes. GFP reporter expression was clearly visible in the lymph nodes of virus groups, which corresponded to SLNs. Relative GFP mRNA was significantly increased in both the tongues and lymph nodes in the virus groups compared with that in the control group (P < 0.05). Serial section analysis showed that BioKnife infected cancer cells and exhibited significant antitumor effect against LNM compared with the control groups (P < 0.05). We detected apoptosis in LNM infected by BioKnife. BioKnife migrated into SLNs after its injection into the primary tumor and effectively suppressed LNM, suggesting that SLN-targeted therapy using BioKnife has great potential to provide a novel and promising alternative to elective neck dissection in cN0 patients with HNSCC.

Abstract
CD47 activates signal regulatory protein alpha expressed on macrophages and suppresses its phagocytic ability; therefore, CD47 is drawing attention as an immune checkpoint in the innate immune system. Expression of CD47 in cancer is thought to allow cancer cells to escape antitumor immunity of the innate immune system. In this study, expression of CD47 was examined by immunostaining in colorectal cancer (CRC) and compared with the expression of CD44, which is a marker for cancer stem cells. In 95 cases of stage II-IV CRC, CD47 and CD44 showed overexpression in 82 and 80 cases, respectively. Both expression levels correlated with distant metastasis. Moreover, the expression of CD47 and CD44 in each case showed a significant correlation. In stage III cases, disease-free survival of cases showing high expression of CD47 and CD44 was worse than that of the cases with low expression. Furthermore, 3 of the stage IV cases were administered nivolumab, a checkpoint inhibitor of the acquired immune system, and 2 patients showed recurrence thereafter. All recurrent tumors highly expressed CD47 and CD44 and showed the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) phenotype. Our results suggest that CD47 promotes the malignancy of CRC in association with EMT and enhances the stemness of cancer cells. Moreover, our study suggests that CD47 and CD44 are involved in imparting resistance to programmed cell death (PD)-1/PD-ligand 1 inhibitors.

Abstract
Abstract
Purpose The prognosis of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive locally advanced or metastatic breast cancers (MBCs) has dramatically improved due to the introduction of trastuzumab, pertuzumab, and trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1). The efficacy of T-DM1 is prolonged for some patients; however, the predictive factors remain unknown. There is a report that T-DM1 induced antitumor immunity in patients treated with neoadjuvant therapy, with tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) increasing after the administration of T-DM1. Based on these observations, the benefits of T-DM1 for prognosis may be mediated by an immune reaction against breast cancers, at least in part. As an indicator of cancer immunity, in addition to TILs, the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has been established in early breast cancers. In the present study, we investigated the usefulness of the NLR for treatment efficacy of T-DM1 in HER2-positive MBCs. Methods Fifty-three advanced or metastatic breast cancers treated with T-DM1 were retrospectively recruited from three institutes. The NLR in the peripheral blood was measured at baseline (just before the start of T-DM1) and after one cycle (just before the start of cycle 2). The cutoff value of the NLR was set at 2.56 (median value) and progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) according to NLR levels were evaluated. Results The PFS of patients with NLR-low at baseline (NLR<2.56; n=26; median, not reached) was significantly better than that of patients with NLR-high (NLR≥2.56; n=27; median, 4.13 months; hazard ratio [HR], 0.226; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.112-0.493; p=0.0001). There was a significant association between improved OS and a low NLR (HR, 0.384; 95% CI, 0.170-0.910; p=0.0296). In the subgroup analysis, patients with NLR-low consistently had improved PFS compared to those with NLR-high irrespective of the number of prior chemotherapy regimens, prior trastuzumab use, visceral metastasis, estrogen receptor status, and HER2 immunohistochemical staining score. According to univariable analysis of each clinical and biological factor for PFS, the NLR-low group was solely and significantly associated with favorable PFS compared with the NLR-high group (HR, 0.226; 95% CI, 0.112-0.493; p=0.0001). The NLR at baseline was significantly decreased (p=0.0010) and lymphocyte count was significantly increased after one cycle treatment (p=0.0005). Interestingly, the PFS of patients whose NLR was high at baseline but changed to low after one cycle (n=12; median PFS, 6.47 months) was better than that of patients with a consistently high NLR (n=14; median PFS, 3.27 months). Conclusion and Discussion A low baseline NLR was found to be significantly associated with improved PFS for patients treated with T-DM1. Interestingly, lymphocyte count was significantly increased in patients in the NLR-low group but not in the NLR-high group after one cycle treatment. Although detailed mechanisms remain unknown, the treatment efficacy of T-DM1 may be partly mediated by immunoreaction on the basis of present data. A low baseline NLR appears to be beneficial for treatment with T-DM1 in HER2-positive breast cancers.

Abstract
Background Oral intake of medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs) reportedly suppresses the accumulation of visceral fat and has antitumor effects in tumor-bearing animals. MCFAs penetrate the mitochondrial membrane in a carnitine shuttle-independent manner and are metabolized more quickly than long-chain fatty acids. Based on these characteristics, MCFAs may have pronounced effects in mitochondria-rich tissues, such as the myocardium. We examined the effect of oral intake of MCFAs on the heart. Methods We fed BALB/c mice with a control diet supplemented with 0%, 2%, 5%, or 10% lauric acid (LAA; a 12-carbon saturated MCFA). After euthanasia, the hearts, both sides of quadriceps femoris muscle (QFM) and epididymal fat pad (EFP) were excised and weighed. Then myocardial tissue morphology, oxidative stress accumulation, and mitochondrial volume were observed by histological analysis. The expression levels of myosin light chain 1 were measured by ELISA. Results There were no differences among the groups in food and calorie intake, but the intake of LAA increased with the dietary proportion. The 10%-LAA-fed mice experienced significant weight loss and became moribund on day 6. The body, cardiac and EFP weights of the mice fed 5% and 10% LAA were lower than those of the control group. And 10% LAA fed group showed significant decrease of the QFM weights. Protein analysis of the excised hearts revealed higher expression of myosin light chain 1 in the 5% group than in the control group. Histological examination of the hearts revealed myocardial atrophy and accumulation of oxidative stress in the 10% group. Fewer mitochondria were observed with increased LAA intake. Conclusions Excessive LAA consumption may damage the myocardium and the damage might result from oxidative stress accumulation and cellular atrophy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study examined whether the angiotensin II receptor blocker telmisartan had inhibitory effects on drug-induced renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) activation in normal dogs. ANIMALS Five healthy laboratory beagles were used in this study. METHODS Each dog received amlodipine (0.5 mg/kg, q12h, PO) alone for 14 days. Starting on the next day, animals received both amlodipine and telmisartan (1.0 mg/kg, q24h, PO) for 84 days. Systolic blood pressure, heart rate, plasma biochemical variables (blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, and electrolytes), plasma renin activity, and 24-h urinary aldosterone elimination (U-Aldo) were measured before amlodipine administration; at day 0; and at days 1, 7, 14, 28, 56, and 84 of telmisartan treatment. RESULTS Telmisartan was associated with significant decreases in systolic blood pressure on day 56 (p=0.046), whereas heart rate did not significantly change during this treatment (p=0.061). Plasma renin activity was significantly increased on days 1, 7, 28, 56, and 84 during telmisartan administration (all p=0.04). No change in median U-Aldo was detected following telmisartan administration (p=0.241). When U-Aldo was evaluated in individual animals, two dogs displayed evidence of aldosterone breakthrough. CONCLUSIONS Telmisartan administration did not suppress RAAS activation. The appearance of aldosterone breakthrough supports the incomplete blockade of RAAS activation.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Lymph node metastasis is one of the most important prognostic factors in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). In clinical N0 cases, however, it is difficult to decide whether we should select elective neck dissection or watchful waiting even at present. We recently reported the successful oncolytic virotherapy against head and neck cancer using recombinant Sendai virus vector (rSeV). We herein focus on sentinel lymph node (SLN)-targeted therapy by oncolytic Sendai virus as a novel less invasive therapy. The objectives of this study are to investigate rSeV migration into SLN, and to elucidate anti-tumor effect on SLN micrometastasis of HNSCC in an orthotopic nude mouse model.
Experimental design: We established SLN micrometastasis of HNSCC in an orthotopic nude mouse model. We inoculated HSC-3-M3, human highly metastatic tongue squamous carcinoma cells, into the left edge of the tongue, and two weeks after tumor inoculation we intratumorally injected a type of rSeV-GFP that selectively shows urokinase type plasminogen activator (uPA)-specific cell killing activity via cell-cell fusion, which is named “BioKnife”. We investigated rSeV migration into SLN by using immunostaining, RT-PCR, and in vivo imaging system. We also examined anti-tumor effect and its mechanisms through serial section examination of SLN by using anti-SeV antibody and the ApopTag peroxidase in situ apoptosis detection kit.
Results: rSeV migration into SLN was clearly visible by fluorescent signals of rSeV in SLN using immunostaining and in vivo imaging system, and clarified by significant increases of relative mRNA expressions of GFP compared to control group in both tongue and SLN using RT-PCR (p < 0.05 respectively). Serial section examination of SLN showed that BioKnife selectively infected cancer cells and exhibited significant anti-tumor effect against SLN micrometastases compared to control groups (p < 0.05). We also detected apoptosis in SLN micrometastasis infected by BioKnife.
Conclusions: This study demonstrated that BioKnife can migrate into metastatic SLN after intratumoral injection into primary tumor, and effectively suppresses SLN micrometastases in an orthotopic nude mouse model, suggesting that SLN targeted therapy of oncolytic rSeV has a great potential to provide a novel and promising alternative to elective neck dissection for clinical N0 patients with HNSCC.

Abstract
STUDY QUESTION Is actin capping protein (CP) β3 involved in human spermatogenesis and male infertility? SUMMARY ANSWER Human CPβ3 (hCPβ3) is expressed in testis, changes its localization dynamically during spermatogenesis, and has some association with male infertility. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY The testis-specific α subunit of CP (CPα3) was previously identified in human, and mutations in the cpα3 gene in mouse were shown to induce malformation of the sperm head and male infertility. However, CPβ3, which is considered to be a heterodimeric counterpart of CPα3, has been neither characterized in human nor reported in association with male infertility. STUDY DESIGN, SIZE, DURATION To confirm the existence of CPβ3 in human testis, fresh semen samples from proven fertile men were analyzed. To investigate protein expression during spermatogenesis, cryopreserved testis obtained from men with obstructive azoospermia were examined by immunofluorescent analysis. To assess the association of CP with male infertility, we compared protein expression of human CPα3 (hCPα3) and hCPβ3 using immunofluorescent analysis of cryopreserved sperm between men with normozoospermia (volunteers: Normo group, n = 20) and infertile men with oligozoospermia and/or asthenozoospermia (O + A group, n = 21). PARTICIPANTS/MATERIALS, SETTING, METHODS The tissue-specific expression of hCPβ3 was investigated by RT-PCR and Western blot analysis. To investigate whether hCPα3 and hCPβ3 form a heterodimer, a tandem expression vector containing hcpα3 tagged with monomeric red fluorescent protein 1 and hcpβ3 tagged with enhanced green fluorescent protein in a single plasmid was constructed and analyzed by co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) assay. The protein expression profiles of hCPα3 and hCPβ3 during spermatogenesis were examined by immunohistochemical analysis using human spermatogenic cells. The protein expressions of hCPα3 and hCPβ3 in sperm were compared between the Normo and O + A groups by immunohistochemical analysis. MAIN RESULTS AND THE ROLE OF CHANCE RT-PCR showed that mRNA of hcpβ3 was expressed exclusively in testis. Western blot analysis detected hCPβ3 with anti-bovine CPβ3 antibody. Co-IP assay with recombinant protein showed that hCPα3 and hCPβ3 form a protein complex. At each step during spermatogenesis, the cellular localization of hCPβ3 changed dynamically. In spermatogonia, hCPβ3 showed a slight signal in cytoplasm. hCPβ3 expression was conspicuous mainly from spermatocytes, and hCPβ3 localization dynamically migrated from cytoplasm to the acrosomal cap and acrosome. In mature spermatozoa, hCPβ3 accumulated in the postacrosomal region and less so at the midpiece of the tail. Double-staining analysis revealed that hCPα3 localization was identical to hCPβ3 at every step in the spermatogenic cells. Most spermatozoa from the Normo group were stained homogenously by both hCPα3 and hCPβ3. In contrast, significantly more spermatozoa in the O + A versus Normo group showed heterogeneous or lack of staining for either hCPα3 or hCPβ3 (abnormal staining) (P < 0.001). The percentage of abnormal staining was higher in the O + A group (52.4 ± 3.0%) than in the Normo group (31.2 ± 2.5%). Even by confining the observations to morphologically normal spermatozoa selected in accordance with David's criteria, the percentage of abnormal staining was still higher in the O + A group (39.9 ± 2.9%) versus the Normo group (22.5 ± 2.1%) (P < 0.001). hCPβ3 in conjunction with hCPα3 seemed to play an important role in spermatogenesis and may be associated with male infertility. LARGE SCALE DATA Not applicable. LIMITATIONS REASONS FOR CAUTION Owing to the difficulty of collecting fresh samples of human testis, we used cryopreserved samples from testicular sperm extraction. To examine the interaction of spermatogenic cells or localization in seminiferous tubules, fresh testis sample of healthy males are ideal. WIDER IMPLICATIONS OF THE FINDINGS The altered expression of hCPα3 and hCPβ3 may not only be a cause of male infertility but also a prognostic factor for the results of ART. They may be useful biomarkers to determine the fertilization ability of human sperm in ART.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes might be a one of predictive outcome of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive advanced breast cancer (ABC) patients (pts) who treated with trastuzumab and pertuzumab (TP) plus docetaxel. Although peripheral blood-based parameter (PBBP) is reported as a prognostic indicator of patients with early breast cancers, utility of PBBP has not been studied in HER2-positive ABC.
Objective:The aim of our study was to determine whether PBBP is significant for predictive efficacy in HER2-positive ABC treated with TP combined with eribulin (ERI) or nab-paclitaxel (Nab-PTX).
Methods: The 51 patients' data from two single arm phase II trials was included in this retrospective-prospective study; ERI + TP (n=30) or Nab-PTX + TP (n=21) registered with UMIN000012375 or UMIN000006838, respectively. We assessed the PBBP in prospectively collected data and investigated their association with progression-free survival (PFS). In consideration of PBBP, we evaluated absolute lymphocyte count (ALC), neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR). The cutoff values of ALC, NLR, and PLR were set at 1000 cells/μL, 2, and 250, respectively.
Results:Median age at baseline was 58 years (range: 31-77). Median number of previous chemotherapy was 3 (range: 1-10). Pts had multiple metastases, 53% with LNs, 35% with bone, 25% with lung, 20% with liver, and 6% with brain. The objective response rate (CR+PR) and clinical benefit rate (CR+PR+ more than 6 month SD) were 37% (n=19) and 59% (n=30), respectively. The median PFS of all pts was 301 days (range: 21-1281). The PFS of pts with ALC-High was significantly better than those of ALC-low (hazard ratio (HR): 2.74, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.28 to 5.86; p= .0097). Furthermore, improved PFS was obtained in pts with ALC greater than 1500 cells/μL compared with less than 1000 cells/uL (HR: 4.05, 95% CI: 1.60 to 11.6; p= .0029). Significant associations seem to exist irrespective of number of previous chemotherapy. Since we combined different studies for evaluating PBBP, ERI and Nab-PTX were calculated separately. Marginally significant associations between ALC and PFS were obtained both in ERI (HR: 2.18, 95% CI: 0.87 to 5.60; p=.0973) and Nab-PTX (HR: 3.26, 95% CI: 0.80 to 12.4; p=.0939). The PFS of NLR-low pts was significantly better than those of NLR-high (HR: 2.29, 95% CI: 1.01 to 5.90; p= .0477), but this statistical difference was inferior to those of ALC. There was no significant association between PLR and PFS.
Conclusions: Pre-treatment ALC-High was significantly correlated with favorable PFS of pts treated with TP irrespective of combination chemotherapy in HER2-positve ABC. Prolonged PFS of TP combination therapy might be obtained mediating through host systemic onco-immunity. These data obtained here suggest that a usefulness of ALC for selecting pts who might have clinical benefit from TP combination therapy for heavily treated HER2-positve ABC.

Abstract
The effect of intermittent calorie restriction (ICR) on cancer is controversial. In this study, we examined the effects of ICR and food content in syngeneic BALB/c mice injected with CT26 mouse colon cancer cells. Mice were subjected to 24-h fasting once a week for 4 weeks, and then provided with a control, high-calorie, or trans fatty acid-rich diet. While ICR resulted in increases in tumor weights, metastasis and in the number of cancer stem cells (CSCs) in the tumors or blood of mice fed the control and high-fat diets, it had no effect on body weight after 4 weeks. In particular, we detected increases in the numbers of CSCs in the tumor or blood on the day after starvation, when food overconsumption was detected. Conversely, continuous calorie restriction had no effect on tumor weight, metastasis, or the number of CSCs in tumors or blood. In the post-starvation period, energy metabolism in the tumor was altered from oxidative phosphorylation to glycolysis/lactate fermentation, with the acquisition of the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) phenotype. Hyperglycemia at the post-starvation period induced the expression of insulin-like growth factor-1, hypoxia-induced factor-1α and Nanog, as well as the phosphorylation of Stat3. Taken together, these findings suggest that ICR induces an increase in the number of CSCs and enhances EMT by promoting the Warburg/Crabtree effect following post-fasting food overconsumption.

Abstract
Inactivated Sendai virus particles (hemagglutinating virus of Japan envelope (HVJ-E)) have a novel antitumor effect: HVJ-E fused to prostate cancer cells via cell surface receptor causes apoptosis of prostate cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. HVJ-E also induces antitumor immunity by activating natural killer (NK) cells and cytotoxic T cells and suppressing regulatory T cells in vivo. We conducted an open-label, single-arm, phase I/II clinical trial in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) to determine the safety and efficacy of intratumoral and subcutaneous injection of HVJ-E. Patients with CRPC who were docetaxel-resistant or could not receive docetaxel treatment were eligible. HVJ-E was injected directly into the prostate on day 1 and subcutaneously on days 5, 8 and 12 in two 28-day treatment cycles using a 3+3 dose-escalation design. The primary end points were to evaluate safety and tolerability of HVJ-E. The secondary end points were to analyze tumor immunity and antitumor effect. The study is registered at UMIN Clinical Trials Registry, number UMIN000006142. Seven patients were enrolled, and six patients received HVJ-E. Grade 2 or 3 adverse events (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events Ver. 4.0) were urinary retention and lymphopenia from which the patients recovered spontaneously. No Grade 4 adverse events were observed. Radiographically, three patients had stable disease in the low-dose group, and one patient had stable disease and two had progressive disease in the high-dose group. The prostate-specific antigen (PSA) declined from 14 to 1.9 ng ml-1 in one patient in the low-dose group after two cycles of HVJ-E treatment, and the PSA response rate was 16.6%. NK cell activity was elevated from day 12 to day 28 after HVJ-E administration, whereas serum interleukin-6, interferon (IFN)-α, IFN-β and IFN-γ levels were not affected by HVJ-E treatment. Intratumoral and subcutaneous injections of HVJ-E are feasible and PSA response was observed in a subgroup of CRPC patients.

Abstract
CONCLUSION The resection of the medial and lateral pyriform sinus was associated with post-operative voice impairment after TOVS. Scar contracture around the cricoarytenoid joint lead to arytenoid fixation toward lateral position, and this wound healing process caused insufficient glottis closure. Although oncological and functional outcomes of TOVS was satisfactory, surgeons should mention the risk of post-operative voice impairment in pre-operative counseling. OBJECTIVES Transoral surgery is a minimally invasive treatment option for hypopharyngeal and supraglottic cancer. Post-operative vocal function was satisfactory in most cases, but in some cases vocal cord was fixed and occasionally voice impairment persists. METHODS Vocal function of 55 patients who underwent transoral videolaryngoscopic surgery (TOVS) for hypopharyngeal and supraglottic cancers was evaluated by the GRBAS perceptive scale, aerodynamic tests and acoustic analyses, and the Voice Handicap Index questionnaire. The risk factors for voice impairment were identified. RESULTS Voice impairment (G score ≧2) was found in 16 cases (29.1%). Univariate analysis revealed that the resection of medial and lateral pyriform sinus (p = .0018) and neck dissection (p = .0421) were associated with post-operative voice impairment. Multivariate analysis revealed that the resection of medial and lateral pyriform sinus (p = .0021) was associated with post-operative voice impairment.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: It has been well demonstrated that patients who achieved pathological complete response (pCR) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) had a favorable prognosis compared with patients who did not (non-pCR). Even though pCR was not attained, reduction in tumor volume after chemotherapy may be associated with improved prognosis for a certain number of patients. However, the association between residual tumor volume and prognosis is not necessarily consistent. In order to identify substitute markers for breast cancer patients with non-pCR after NAC, we investigated the impact of serum levels of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and carbohydrate antigen (CA15-3) at baseline as well as post-NAC.
Patients and Methods: Ninety-six breast cancer patients treated with NAC and operated on at the Hyogo College of Medicine were recruited for this study. Serum CEA and CA15-3 were measured prior to chemotherapy as well as at completion of pre-operative treatment. The optimal cutoff points for CEA (1.55ng/m, normal range: <5.0ng/ml) and CA15-3 (13.25U/ml, normal range: <28.0U/ml) for relapse-free survival (RFS) were determined by analyzing the area under receiver operating characteristic curves in another study involving 613 breast cancer patients. Expression levels of Ki67 in samples obtained at pre- and post-NAC were also determined by means of immunohistochemical staining. Pathological complete response was classified as the absence of residual invasive cancer in the breast and lymph nodes. During a 2.13 years median follow-up period, 15 patients suffered relapse.
Results: pCR and non-pCR was attained by 21 and 75 patients, respectively. For the non-pCR patients, serum CEA levels at baseline were classified into high (n=35) and low (n=38) and serum CA15-3 levels at baseline into high (n=31) and low (n=43). RFS of non-pCR patients with high serum CA15-3 levels was significantly worse than of those with low levels (3-year RFS: 0.47 vs 0.93; p=0.0009). RFS for patients with high and low serum levels of CA15-3 after NAC was also significantly different (p=0.037). As for CEA, no significant association with RFS was observed either at baseline or post-NAC. Univariate analysis demonstrated that tumor size and baseline CA15-3 were significant prognostic factors for RFS. Multivariate analysis showed that both tumor size (hazard ratio (HR): 3.88, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.21-12.35, p=0.023) and baseline CA15-3 (HR: 13.51, 95% CI: 1.74-105.08, p=0.013) were significant and independent risk factors for relapse. As for lymph node metastasis, tumor grade, residual tumor size and pre- and post-NAC Ki67 expression levels of patients with non-pCR showed no significant association with RFS.
Conclusion and discussion: High levels of serum CA15-3 at baseline constituted a significantly worse prognosis for breast cancer patients with non-pCR. Tumor size at baseline but not residual size and baseline CA15-3 seems to suitable as a substitute for prediction of outcome for patients with non-pCR. Our findings suggest that these markers may be useful for identifying patients with poor prognosis who may be candidates for additional adjuvant treatment.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: It has been demonstrated that adjuvant treatment using bisphosphonate may reduce recurrence among breast cancer patients. However, these improved prognoses of patients are reportedly limited to breast cancers of estrogen receptor (ER)-positive and postmenopausal women. Although the mechanisms of the effects of bisphosphonate remain unknown, this finding seems to represent support for the hypothesis that suppression of bone resorption by bisphosphonate results in favorable prognoses at least for patients in this subset. In order to determine the prognostic significance of bone resorption in breast cancer patients, we investigated these markers c-terminal crosslinking telopeptide of type I collagen (1CTP) and N-telopeptide of type I collagen (NTX).
Patients and Methods: 469 breast cancer patients were recruited who were operated on Hyogo College of Medicine and histologically confirmed to have invasive carcinoma. Serum 1CTP and NTX were measured preoperatively with the two-antibody radioimmunoassay and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay methods, respectively, and blood samples were obtained before treatment from patients who were treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy or endocrine therapy. The area under receiver operating characteristic curves were applied and optimal cutoff values were set at 3.6ng/ml for 1CTP, and 10.55nmolBCE/L premenopausal and 14.05nmolBCE/L postmenopausal for NTX. The relationships between these bone turnover markers and various clinicopathological characteristics were evaluated with the chi square or Fisher's exact test. The log-rank test was used to compare relapse-free survival (RFS) in Kaplan-Meier plots. Associations of RFS were assessed with a Cox proportional-hazards model based on the results of univariate and multivariate analyses. Differences were considered statistically significant if p<0.05.
Results: There were significantly more 1CTP-high patients among postmenopausal women and RFS of 1CTP-high patients was significantly worse than that of 1CTP-low patients (5-year RFS: 0.65 vs 0.86; p=0.0002). Similarly, NTX-high patients were significantly associated with postmenopausal status, but there was no significant association between NTX-high worse RFS (p=0.0976). Multivariate analysis of tumor size, lymph node metastasis and nuclear grade identified 1CTP (hazard ratio: 2.04, 95% confidence interval: 1.13-3.68; p=0.018) as a significant independent prognostic factor. Subset analyses of 1CTP showed that prognosis was consistently worse recognized for postmenopausal (p=0.0002), but not premenopausal (p=0.37) patients. Furthermore, prognosis for 1CTP-high patients was worse for the estrogen receptor (ER)-positive subset (p=0.0005) but not for the ER-negative subset (p=0.22).
Conclusion and discussion: High levels of serum bone resorption markers at baseline were identified as significant unfavorable prognostic factors for breast cancer patients. The prognostic significance of 1CTP seems to be prominent for postmenopausal patients with ER-positive breast cancers. These findings suggest the use of bone-modifying agents as an adjuvant therapy may be beneficial for breast cancer patients, especially for patients with high serum levels of 1CTP.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Bone-modifying agents have demonstrated their efficacy for treatment by suppressing osteoclast function. The activity of bone-modifying agents can be monitored by means of bone resorption markers such as c-terminal crosslinking telopeptide of type I collagen (1CTP) and N-telopeptide of type I collagen (NTX) as well as bone forming marker bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BAP). In contrast to these markers which indirectly indicate bone turnover, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase-5b (Tracp-5b) has been established as a direct marker showing osteoclast number and activity. The aim of this study was to identify the relative significance of these bone turnover markers as indicators of treatment efficacy induced by bone-modifying agents for breast cancer patients with bone metastases.
Patients and Methods: For this study, 52 breast cancer patients with bone metastases treated with bone-modifying agents were recruited. Zoledronic acid and denosumab were administered as bone-modifying agents to 36 and 22 patients, respectively (for 6 patients, denosumab was used after zoledronic acid). Serum Tracp-5b, 1CTP, NTX and BAP were measured with, respectively, the EIA (enzyme immunoassay), RIA (two-antibody radioimmunoassay), ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) and CLEIA (chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay) method. Blood samples were obtained pretreatment and 1, 3 and 6 months after treatment. Changes in these bone turnover markers were statistically analyzed with Friedman's test, and correlation between serum markers and clinicopathological factors was calculated with Mann-Whitney's test.
Results: Serum tracp-5b decreased significantly after treatment (p<0.0001). The baseline median value of Tracp-5b (457.5mU/dl, range: 173-1630mU/dl) had been reduced to 137mU/dl (91-795mU/dl) 1 month after treatment, but no further reduction was observed after that. For 13 out of 15 patients to whom Tracp-5b was administered, abnormally high levels (above 420mU/dl) decreased to normal range with one month treatment. Serum NTX was also significantly reduced after treatment (p=0.0007). The median baseline value (16.5nmolBCE/L, 6.1-52.2nmolBCE/L) was diminished after 1 month (to 10.9nmolBCE/L, 7.0-49.5nmolBCE/L), and further reduction of NTX was observed after 3 months (9.55nmolBCE/L, 6.4-56.0nmolBCE/L). Similarly, baseline BAP (15.1μg/L, 6.4-81.3μg/L) decreased significantly (p=0.0032), a reduction which was obtained after 3 months (10.15μg/L, 6.1-51.7μg/L), but not after 1 month (13.0μg/L, 7.7-137.0μg/L). On the other hand, reduction in 1CTP was not significant (p=0.83).
Conclusion and discussion: Although baseline values of the bone turnover markers Tracp-5b, NTX and BAP decreased significantly after treatment with bone-modifying agents, the pattern of reduction for these three markers varied. Tracp-5b appears to reflect efficacy of bone-modifying agents most quickly and sensitively, possibly due to its direct link to the number and activity of osteoclasts. These findings may prove usefulness of Tracp-5b when considering the efficacy of various bone-modifying agents in clinical practice.

Abstract
Improved therapies for individuals with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) may be developed by identification of appropriate biomarkers. The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of serum midkine measurement as a biomarker for HNSCC. Pretreatment serum midkine concentrations were measured in 103 patients with HNSCC and 116 control individuals by enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay. Midkine expression in tumor tissues from 33 patients with HNSCC who underwent definitive surgical resection without preoperative treatment was examined by immunohistochemistry. The cut‐off serum midkine concentrations for predicting the presence of head and neck malignancy and chemosensitivity to induction chemotherapy, as determined using receiver operating characteristic curves, were 482 and 626 pg/mL, respectively. Spearman bivariate correlations showed positive correlations between serum midkine levels and immunohistochemistry staining score (r = 0.612, P < 0.001). The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and accuracy of serum midkine concentration for detection of HNSCC were 57.3, 85.3, 77.6, 69.2, and 72.1%, respectively. However, for predicting the response to induction chemotherapy, the values were 84.6, 60.9, 71.0, 77.8, and 73.5%, respectively. Serum midkine concentration was identified as an independent prognostic factor by multivariate analysis, using Cox's proportional hazards model (P = 0.027). Overexpression of serum midkine yielded a relative risk of death of 3.77, with 95% confidence limits ranging from 1.15 to 17.0. Serum midkine levels in patients with HNSCC were associated with malignancy, chemosensitivity, and prognosis. Serum midkine may be a useful, minimally invasive biomarker for early detection, therapeutic decision‐making, and predicting prognosis.

Abstract
About 15% of couples wishing to have children are infertile; approximately half these cases involve a male factor. Polo-like kinase 4 (PLK-4) is a member of the polo protein family and a key regulator of centriole duplication. Male mice with a point mutation in the Plk4 gene show azoospermia associated with germ cell loss. Mutational analysis of 81 patients with azoospermia and Sertoli cell-only syndrome (SCOS) identified one man with a heterozygous 13-bp deletion in the Ser/Thr kinase domain of PLK4. Division of centrioles occurred in wild-type PLK4-transfected cells, but was hampered in PLK-4-mutant transfectants, which also showed abnormal nuclei. Thus, this PLK4 mutation might be a cause of human SCOS and nonobstructive azoospermia.

Abstract
Far-upstream element-binding protein-interacting repressor (FIR) is a transcription factor that inhibits c-Myc expression and has been shown to have antitumor effects in some malignancies. Here, we evaluated the antitumor effects of FIR using fusion gene-deleted Sendai virus (SeV/ΔF) as a nontransmissible vector against head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Using in vitro and in vivo xenograft mouse models, we observed efficient expression of green fluorescent protein (GFP) following transduction with the SeV/ΔF vector encoding GFP (GFP-SeV/ΔF) into HNSCC cells. In vitro and in vivo studies revealed that administration of the FIR-encoded SeV/ΔF (FIR-SeV/ΔF) vector exerted significant antitumor effects, suppressed c-Myc expression and induced apoptosis in HNSCC. Additionally, the antitumor effects of FIR or the expression of GFP following administration of the FIR- or GFP-SeV/ΔF vector, respectively, were dependent on the multiplicity of infection or titer. Furthermore, the SeV/ΔF vector itself had no cytotoxic effects. Therefore, the SeV/ΔF vector may be safe and useful for the treatment of HNSCC, allowing for high-titer SeV/ΔF vector administration for anticancer gene therapy. In addition, SeV/ΔF vector-mediated FIR gene therapy demonstrated effective tumor suppression in HNSCC, suggesting that this therapy may have the potential for clinical use as a novel strategy for HNSCC treatment.

Abstract
A loss of function of the murine Sin3A gene resulted in male infertility with Sertoli cell-only syndrome (SCOS) phenotype in mice. Here, we investigated the relevance of this gene to human male infertility with azoospermia caused by SCOS. Mutation analysis of SIN3A in the coding region was performed on 80 Japanese patients. However, no variants could be detected. This study suggests a lack of association of SIN3A gene sequence variants with azoospermia caused by SCOS in humans.

Abstract
Plasma N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) concentrations increase in dogs with azotemia. However, the correlation between glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and NT-proBNP concentrations in dogs has not been evaluated. The objective of this study was to evaluate the correlation between GFR and plasma NT-proBNP concentrations in dogs with chronic kidney disease (CKD). In this retrospective cross-sectional study, plasma creatinine (Cre) and NT-proBNP concentrations, plasma iohexol clearance (PCio) values and blood pressure were measured in dogs with CKD. Dogs were classified according to PCio values into D group (dogs with decreased PCio values), and N group (dogs with normal PCio values). Dogs were further categorized on the basis of their systolic blood pressure and PCio values into NT-D group (normotensive dogs with decreased PCio values), NT-N group (normotensive dogs with normal PCio values), HT-D group (hypertensive dogs with decreased PCio values) and HT-N group (hypertensive dogs with normal PCio values). Significant correlations were observed between plasma NT-proBNP and Cre concentrations (r=0.360, P<0.05) and PCio values (r=-0.470, P<0.01). Plasma NT-proBNP concentrations were significantly higher in the D group than in the N group (P<0.001). Plasma NT-proBNP concentrations were significantly higher in the HT-D group than in the other three groups (P ≤ 0.007). No differences in plasma NT-proBNP concentrations were observed between the NT-D and HT-N groups (P=0.28). Plasma NT-proBNP concentrations were significantly lower in the NT-N group than in the other three groups (P ≤ 0.043). Our findings suggest that decreased GFR might be associated with increased plasma NT-proBNP concentrations in dogs, similar to that in humans. In addition, the complication of hypertension in CKD might be associated with further increases in plasma NT-proBNP concentrations. In conclusion, the effects of GFR and blood pressure on the plasma NT-proBNP concentration were small, but it could be necessary to consider the effects when this marker is used to evaluate canine cardiac disease.

Abstract
<b><i>Purpose of the Study:</i></b> The present study aimed to compare the voice quality after each type of cordectomy with that after radiotherapy (RT) or chemoradiotherapy (CRT) for early glottic carcinoma. <b><i>Procedures:</i></b> The GRBAS perceptive scale [consisting of 5 domains: grade (G), roughness (R), breathiness (B), asthenia (A), and strain (S)], aerodynamic tests and acoustic analyses, and the Voice Handicap Index questionnaire were evaluated for 58 laser cordectomy cases and 40 RT or CRT cases. Multiple comparison tests were conducted between each type of cordectomy and RT or CRT. <b><i>Results:</i></b> No statistical difference was found between type I/II cordectomy and RT for T1 glottic carcinoma (T1RT), whereas T1RT showed a significantly better outcome than type III cordectomy (G score: p = 0.016, maximum phonation time: p < 0.01, mean flow rate: p < 0.01). Type IV cordectomy was equivalent to RT or CRT for T2 glottic carcinoma (T2RT/CRT), while types V and VI showed a worse voice quality than T2RT/CRT (G score: p = 0.038 to type VI, B score: p = 0.025 to type V and p = 0.032 to type VI, A score: p = 0.017 to type VI). <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> Voice quality after laser cordectomy differs according to the type of cordectomy. Surgeons should inform patients about the expected voice quality after each treatment modality.
