Abstract
Chronic infection with the hepatitis B virus (HBV) induces progressive hepatic impairment. Achieving complete eradication of the virus remains a formidable challenge. Cytotoxic T lymphocytes, specific to viral antigens, either exhibit a numerical deficiency or succumb to an exhausted state in individuals chronically afflicted with HBV. The comprehension of the genesis and dissemination of stem cell memory T cells (TSCMs) targeting HBV remains inadequately elucidated. We identified TSCMs in subjects with chronic HBV infection and scrutinized their efficacy in a murine model with human hepatocyte transplants, specifically the TK-NOG mice. TSCMs were discerned in all subjects under examination. Introduction of TSCMs into the HBV mouse model precipitated a severe necro-inflammatory response, resulting in the elimination of human hepatocytes. TSCMs may constitute a valuable tool in the pursuit of a remedial therapy for HBV infection.

Abstract
Human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DPB1 antigens are mismatched in approximately 70% of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantations (allo-HSCT) from HLA 10/10 matched unrelated donors. HLA-DP-mismatched transplantation was shown to be associated with an increase in acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and a decreased risk of leukemia relapse due to the graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) effect. Immunotherapy targeting mismatched HLA-DP is considered reasonable to treat leukemia following allo-HCT if performed under non-inflammatory conditions. Therefore, we isolated CD4+ T cell clones that recognize mismatched HLA-DPB1 from healthy volunteer donors and generated T cell receptor (TCR)-gene-modified T cells for future clinical applications. Detailed analysis of TCR-T cells expressing TCR from candidate clone #17 demonstrated specificity to myeloid and monocytic leukemia cell lines that even expressed low levels of targeted HLA-DP. However, they did not react to non-hematopoietic cell lines with a substantial level of targeted HLA-DP expression, suggesting that the TCR recognized antigenic peptide is only present in some hematopoietic cells. This study demonstrated that induction of T cells specific for HLA-DP, consisting of hematopoietic cell lineage-derived peptide and redirection of T cells with cloned TCR cDNA by gene transfer, is feasible when using careful specificity analysis.

Abstract
Lymphedema is a progressive condition accompanying cellulitis and angiosarcoma, suggesting its association with immune dysfunction. Lymphatic venous anastomosis (LVA) can provide relief from cellulitis and angiosarcoma. However, the immune status of peripheral T cells during lymphedema and post-LVA remains poorly understood. Using peripheral blood T cells from lymphedema, post-LVA, and healthy controls (HCs), we compared the profile of T cell subsets and T cell receptor (TCR) diversity. PD-1+ Tim-3 + expression was downregulated in post-LVA compared with lymphedema. IFN-γ levels in CD4+PD-1+ T cells and IL-17A levels in CD4+ T cells were downregulated in post-LVA compared with lymphedema. TCR diversity was decreased in lymphedema compared with HCs; such TCR skewing was drastically improved in post-LVA. T cells in lymphedema were associated with exhaustion, inflammation, and diminished diversity, which were relieved post-LVA. The results provide insights into the peripheral T cell population in lymphedema and highlight the immune modulatory importance of LVA.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION High-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplant is the mainstay of treatment for multiple myeloma (MM). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the ability of MRI-derived indices to predict mobilized hematopoietic stem cell yield. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this exploratory pilot work, we retrospectively analyzed 38 mobilization procedures for MM. Successful mobilization procedure was defined as a total yield of >4.0×106 CD34+ cells/kg. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify factors with a significant effect on successful mobilization from among clinical characteristics including number of prior lines of therapy, period from diagnosis to harvest, type of monoclonal protein (M protein); and radiological characteristics including total diffusion volume (tDV), median apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) of tDV, and mean fat fraction of bone marrow calculated by MRI. RESULTS Univariate analyses showed that relatively poor mobilization was significantly associated with M protein of Bence-Jones type and with median ADC of tDV (P = 0.02 and P = 0.004, respectively). Multivariate analyses using these two indices showed that median ADC of tDV was a significant predictive factor for adequate mobilization (P = 0.01), with an area under the curve of 0.784 (cutoff value, 1.18×10-3 mm2/s; sensitivity, 72.7%; specificity, 87.5%). CONCLUSION The present data indicate that median ADC of tDV is a predictive factor for relatively poor mobilization of hematopoietic stem cells in MM patients undergoing autologous stem cell transplant.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Effect of single or multiple mismatches at each HLA locus on outcomes after cord blood transplantation (CBT) is controversial. OBJECTIVE We analyzed the effects of single or multiple HLA-locus mismatches on the outcomes after single CBT using a Japanese registry data from the Japan Society for Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation (JSHCT). STUDY DESIGN Patients with acute leukemia and myelodysplastic syndromes, aged 16 years or older, who underwent their first CBT between 2003 and 2017 (n = 4,074) were included. The effect of the number of HLA-locus mismatches (0, 1, and 2, for the HLA-A, -B, -C, and -DRB1 loci) on outcomes was analyzed after adjusting for other significant variables. RESULTS The median age of the patients was 54 years. Median total nucleated and CD34 cell doses were 2.6 × 107/kg and 0.8 × 105/kg, respectively. The number of CBTs with single or double mismatches were 2,099 and 292 for HLA-A locus, 2,699 and 341 for HLA-B locus, 2,555 and 609 for HLA-C locus, and 2,593 and 571 for HLA-DRB1 locus, respectively. Single and double HLA-DRB1 mismatches were associated with a higher risk of grade II-IV acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD, single: HR 1.29, P<0.001, double: HR 1.49, P<0.001, trend-P: P<0.001). Single and double mismatches at HLA-DRB1 as well as single mismatches at HLA-A and HLA-B were also associated with grade III-IV acute GVHD. Single and double HLA-B mismatches and double HLA-DRB1 mismatches were associated with a high risk of non-relapse mortality. On the other hand, double mismatches at HLA-A or HLA-DRB1 and single mismatches at HLA-B were associated with a lower risk of relapse. CONCLUSION HLA-DRB1 double mismatch was associated with high risks of grade II-IV and III-IV acute GVHD and non-relapse mortality but lower risk of relapse. Not only the locus mismatch but also the number of mismatches may be considered in cord blood unit selection.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Optimal selection of pretransplant conditioning is crucially vital for improving survival and quality-of-life of patients who receive allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT), particularly in those with high-risk diseases. In this study, we evaluated the efficacy and safety of recently-developed reduced-toxicity myeloablative regimen that combines fludarabine, intravenous busulfan, and melphalan (FBM). METHODS We conducted a single-center retrospective analysis of 39 patients (23 with myeloid neoplasms and 16 with lymphoid neoplasms), with a median age of 50 (range, 17-68) years, who underwent their first allo-HCT using the FBM regimen. Graft types were bone marrow in 11, peripheral blood in 11, and cord blood in 17 patients. Cyclosporine- or tacrolimus-based graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis was administered. The primary end point of the study was the overall survival rate at 2-year after transplantation. RESULTS After a median follow-up of 910 days for the surviving patients, 2-year overall survival was 62% for the entire cohort; 73% in the low-to-intermediate-risk group and 44% in the high-to-very high-risk group classified by the refined CIBMTR Disease Risk Index. Cumulative incidences of engraftment, grade II-IV acute GVHD, chronic GVHD, relapse, and non-relapse mortality were 95%, 56%, 56%, 31%, and 17%, respectively. CONCLUSION These results suggest that our FBM regimen can be applied to allo-HCT using various graft types and yields acceptable outcomes with relatively low non-relapse mortality in both myeloid and lymphoid neoplasms. Also, we observed a promising survival in the group of patients with high-risk diseases, warranting more accumulation of patients and longer follow-up.

Abstract
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) are selective blood fractions obtained by cen¬trifugation. They act locally on inflammation and immunity as adjuvant homeostatic modulators during tissue regeneration. In recent years, many methods for achieving these blood concentrates have emerged, whose parameters of time and force of centrifugation presented themselves as critical, conflicting, and poorly understood points. Thus, the present study aimed to evaluate the effect of different centrifugal experimental parameters on the concentration of cells and platelets in samples of anticoagulated blood. Blood samples were centrifuged by forces of 200, 400 and 800 x g for 5, 10 and 15 minutes of centrifugation times to obtain three fractions: a) platelet-poor plasma (PPP), b) leukocyte-rich plasma (L- PRP) and c) red blood cell sed¬iment (RBC). The leukocyte and platelet content of each centrifuged fraction was measured by automated flow cytometry associated with the peroxidase reaction for differential leukocyte count. The application of 200 x g generated a more significant dispersive content of leukocytes and platelets in the supernatant fraction of PPP when compared to the other two strength ranges. However, it presented the highest concentration of platelets in the sediment (P <0.05 ANOVA), representing a loss of total mass during processing. The 400 and 800 x g forces showed leukocytes and platelets condensed in the L-PRP fraction and lower levels in the sedi¬ment, demonstrating the greater effectiveness of buoyancy in the resuspension of these sedimented elements. Our experimental data showed that the concentration and organization of leukocytes and platelets in the centrifuged blood matrices are very sensitive to variations in g force and centrifugation time, thus generating products with different biological composition and characteristics, and with specific potential therapeutic effects. The present study did not focus on comparing authoring methods, but on presenting the impact of methodological variations on the biological nature of centrifuged blood matrices. Further in vivo studies are needed to assess the specific clinical effect of each methodological change.

Abstract
Objectives To compare remission status at completion of chemotherapy for multiple myeloma (MM) with changes in total diffusion volume (tDV) calculated from whole-body diffusion-weighted imaging (WB-DWI) and fat fraction (FF) of lumbar bone marrow (BM) by modified Dixon Quant (mDixon Quant) soon after induction of chemotherapy, and to assess the predictive value of MRI. Methods Fifty patients (mean age, 66.9 ± 10.5 years) with symptomatic myeloma were examined before and after two cycles of chemotherapy. From WB-DWI data, tDV was obtained with the threshold for positive BM involvement. Mean FF was calculated from lumbar BM using the mDixon Quant sequence. At the completion of chemotherapy, patients were categorized into a CR/very good PR (VGPR) group (n = 15; mean age, 67.6 ± 10.3 years) and a PR, SD or PD group (n = 35; mean age, 69.1 ± 8.6 years). ROC curves were plotted to assess performance in predicting achievement of CR/VGPR. Results At second examination, serum M protein, β2-microglobulin, and tDV were significantly decreased and hemoglobin, mean ADC, and FF were significantly increased in the CR/VGPR group and serum M protein was significantly increased in the PR/SD/PD group. The general linear model demonstrated that percentage changes in FF and M protein contributed significantly to achieving CR/VGPR (P = 0.02, P = 0.04, respectively). AUCs of ROC curves were 0.964 for FF and 0.847 for M protein. Conclusions Early change in FF of lumbar BM and serum M protein soon after induction of chemotherapy contributed significantly to prediction of CR/VGPR.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Currently, cryoballoon ablation (CBA) has proven to be highly effective in achieving free from atrial fibrillation (AF), especially paroxysmal AF. However, the optimal freezing protocol for each patient to achieve successful pulmonary vein isolation by only CBA is still uncertain. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical implications of a reduction in the freezing duration (<180s) during CBA guided by the time to target temperature.
Methods
From November 2015 to August 2018, 286 consecutive paroxysmal AF patients undergoing CBA were enrolled. We compared 107 patients undergoing a tailor-made CBA procedure (Group A; August 2017-August 2018) to 179 patients with a standard CBA procedure (Group B; November 2015–July 2017). In Group A, the freezing duration was reduced to 150s when the temperature reached ≤−40°C within 40s. Furthermore, we reduced it to 120s when it reached ≤−50°C within 60s. In the other patients, the freezing time was 180s except for excessive freezing over −60°C and/or emergent situations while monitoring the esophageal temperature and for phrenic nerve injury as in Group B.
Results
The baseline clinical characteristics were similar between two groups. In Group A, 89 patients (83%) underwent CBA with a reduction in the freezing time. The rate of having reduction time in left inferior PV (LIPV) and right inferior PV (RIPV) was lower compared with left superior PV (LSPV) and right superior PV (RSPV) (respectively 17%, 29%, 56%, and 63.5%). However, for right inferior PV, in 31 patients having the reduced freezing time, none of them required touch-up ablation. Although the procedure time and frequency of touch-up ablation did not differ between the 2 groups, total freezing time for each PV was significantly shorter in Group A than Group B as shown in figure (LSPV: 164±28s vs. 216±67s; p<0.001, LIPV: 187±44s vs. 218±69s; p<0.001, RSPV: 147±31s vs. 192±51s; p<0.001, RIPV: 180±50 vs. 218±73s; p<0.001). The AF free survival rate during the follow-up period (356±167 days) was similar between the 2 groups (log-rank test, p=0.38). Furthermore, the complication rate was similar 2 groups.
The freezing time for each PV
Conclusion
The safety and efficacy of the new tailor-made CBA strategy were non-inferior to the standard procedure. This study showed that the unnecessary freezing time could be reduced in most of paroxysmal AF patients.

Abstract
It remains unclear whether the HLA haplotype of unrelated cord blood (UCB) should be matched to that of the patient in single UCB transplantation. Thus, using data from a Japanese registry, we analyzed the effect of haplotype matching on outcomes. Patients with hematologic diseases aged 16 years or older who had undergone their first transplant were included (N = 1347). The effects of haplotype matching and high-frequency HLA haplotype on outcomes were analyzed. Median patient age was 55 years. The cumulative incidences of neutrophil engraftment among groups with 0, 1, and 2 HLA haplotype matches were 79%, 82%, and 88%, respectively (P = .008). In a multivariate analysis, the group with 0 haplotype matches was marginally associated with worse neutrophil engraftment (P = .087) and significantly associated with platelet engraftment (P = .044) compared with the group with 1 haplotype match. Two-haplotype matches were associated with a higher risk of relapse. In the group with 1 haplotype match, the top 3 shared haplotypes were "A*24:02-B*52:01-C*12:02-DRB1*15:02" (HP-P1), "A*33:03-B*44:03-C*14:03-DRB1*13:02" (HP-P2), and "A*24:02-B*07:02-C*07:02-DRB1*01:01" (HP-P3). The presence of HP-P2 but not HP-P1 or HP-P3 was associated with a decreased risk of grades II to IV acute graft-versus-host disease (hazard ratio, .56; P = .001) but an increased risk of relapse (hazard ratio, 1.35; P = .045). HLA haplotype matching might be considered to improve engraftment. Two-haplotype matches should be avoided if the relapse risk is high. The haplotype itself may have an effect on the risk of acute graft-versus-host disease and relapse.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Drug-eluting stent restenosis (DES-ISR) is associated with poorer outcomes than those of bare-metal stent restenosis after treatment with paclitaxel-coated balloon (PCB), and late restenosis after PCB angioplasty for DES-ISR is a residual problem. Excimer laser coronary angioplasty (ELCA) is thought to be advantageous for ISR treatment by removing neointima. However, whether the combination of ELCA and PCB angioplasty is more effective than the use of PCB only angioplasty in DES-ISR has not been studied so far.
Purpose
We evaluated the efficacy of ELCA and PCB combination therapy for DES-ISR at mid-and late-term after revascularization.
Methods
From January 2014 to March 2016, 166 DES-ISR lesions were treated with ELCA and no-ELCA prior to PCB. Two serial angiographic follow-ups were planned for the patients (at 6–12 and 18–24 months after procedure). Acute procedural and follow-up angiographic results were assessed by quantitative coronary angiography. ELCA and no-ELCA group included 74 lesions and 92 lesions, respectively.
Results
There was no significant difference between the two groups in the clinical characteristics except the prevalence of hemodialysis, the rate of first-generation DES (37.9% vs 36.8%, p=0.897), previous stent size (2.90±0.39 mm vs 2.77±0.39 mm, p=0.063), and reference vessel diameter (2.65±0.46 mm vs 2.60±0.65 mm, p=0.593). Early follow-up angiography was performed in 66 lesions (89.1%) of ELCA group, and was done in 76 lesions (82.6%) of no-ELCA group. In the ELCA group, percentage diameter stenosis (%DS) just after procedure and at 6–12 months later were significantly smaller than those of no-ELCA group. Besides, target lesion revascularization (TLR) rate at 6–12 months after procedure was tended to be lower in the ELCA group. Late follow-up angiography was performed for 93 lesions (81.6%) of the remaining 114 lesions (excluding TLR lesion), late restenosis was found 9 lesions (18.6%) in the ELCA group and 11 lesions (24.4%) in the no-ELCA group (p=0.504). Late luminal loss was similar in both groups (0.37±0.71 mm vs 0.24±0.82 mm, p=0.438), and %DS at 12–18 months after revascularization was not different between the two groups.
Changes of %DS and TLR rate
Conclusions
%DS in the ELCA group was smaller at just after procedure and the advantage was kept even after 1-year. However, late restenosis and TLR at 2-year after revascularization for DES-ISR could not be reduced by ELCA and PCB combination therapy.

Abstract
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the ventral intermediate nucleus (VIM) of the thalamus is a powerful surgical option in the treatment of essential tremors (ETs). However, its therapeutic efficacy depends on the tremor distribution. DBS is highly efficient in the relief of distal appendicular tremor but not other types of tremor. We report a case of staged DBS of ventral intermediate nucleus (VIM) of thalamus for the suppression of ETs.

Abstract
Some studies support the hypothesis that HLA genes and haplotypes evolved by natural selection through their protective abilities against specific infectious pathogens. However, very little is known regarding the impact of high-frequency HLA haplotypes on the risk of relevant infectious diseases among a given ethnic group. We evaluated the impact of high-frequency HLA haplotypes on cytomegalovirus (CMV) reactivation and infection in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in a Japanese population as a model of infectious disease that has coexisted with humans. A total of 21,127 donor-patient pairs were analyzed. HLA-A-B-DRB1 haplotypes were estimated using the maximum probability algorithm. Seven haplotypes with >1% frequency were defined as high-frequency haplotypes (HfHPs). Homozygotes of HfHP and heterozygotes had significantly lower risk of CMV reactivation and infection (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.88, P = .009 and HR = 0.93, P = .003, respectively) than homozygotes of low-frequency HLA haplotypes (LfHPs). In subgroup analyses of a different donor source, these associations were statistically significant in unrelated donor transplants. Finally, CMV risk for homozygotes and heterozygotes of each HfHP was compared with that of homozygotes of LfHPs. The 2 most predominant HfHP groups (A*24:02-B*52:01-DRB1*15:02 group and A*24:02-B*07:02-DRB1*01:01 group) had a significantly lower risk of CMV reactivation and infection (HR = 0.86, P < .001 and HR = 0.91, P = .033, respectively). Our findings suggest that HfHPs may be protective against CMV reactivation and infection and that increased care regarding CMV reactivation and infection may be necessary for patients with LfHP after allo-HSCT.

Abstract
Introduction: A subgroup of complex aneurysms demands multimodal treatment by microscopic and endovascular means. Partial obliteration or remnant postprocedure demands to go further to the other modality. Materials and Methods: All patients between July 2016 and January 2017 who had to undergo multimodality measures for complete obliteration of the aneurysms were included in the study. The patients who had either undergone clipping or coiling for their aneurysms, but with incomplete obliteration of the aneurysm, were also included in the study. Results: Between July 2016 and January 2017, a total of three patients had to undergo coiling after clipping of the aneurysm for complete obliteration. Two patients had to go for clipping following coiling. All five patients had complete obliteration of the aneurysm sac. Conclusion: Both microscopic and endovascular means are complementary measures instead of competing procedures. It is important to realize the technical difficulties when surgical therapy follows initial endovascular treatment. Similarly, coiling a previously clipped aneurysm can be difficult, if the clip obscures normal working projections.

Abstract
The human immune system is a fine network consisted of the innumerable numbers of functional cells that balance the immunity and tolerance against various endogenous and environmental challenges. Although advances in modern immunology have revealed a role of many unique immune cell subsets, technologies that enable us to capture the whole landscape of immune responses against specific antigens have been not available to date. Acquired immunity against various microorganisms including host microbiome is principally founded on T cell and B cell populations, each of which expresses antigen-specific receptors that define a unique clonotype. Over the past several years, high-throughput next-generation sequencing has been developed as a powerful tool to profile T- and B-cell receptor repertoires in a given individual at the single-cell level. Sophisticated immuno-bioinformatic analyses by use of this innovative methodology have been already implemented in clinical development of antibody engineering, vaccine design, and cellular immunotherapy. In this article, we aim to discuss the possible application of high-throughput immune receptor sequencing in the field of nutritional and intestinal immunology. Although there are still unsolved caveats, this emerging technology combined with single-cell transcriptomics/proteomics provides a critical tool to unveil the previously unrecognized principle of host–microbiome immune homeostasis. Accumulation of such knowledge will lead to the development of effective ways for personalized immune modulation through deeper understanding of the mechanisms by which the intestinal environment affects our immune ecosystem.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) cells acquire dormancy and drug resistance via interaction with bone marrow stroma cells (BMSC) in a hypoxic microenvironment. Elucidating the mechanisms underlying the regrowth of dormant clones may contribute to further improvement of the prognosis of MM patients. In this study, we find that the CD180/MD-1 complex, a noncanonical lipopolysaccharide (LPS) receptor, is expressed on MM cells but not on normal counterparts, and its abundance is markedly upregulated under adherent and hypoxic conditions. Bacterial LPS and anti-CD180 antibody, but not other Toll-like receptor ligands, enhanced the growth of MM cells via activation of MAP kinases ERK and JNK in positive correlation with expression levels of CD180. Administration of LPS significantly increased the number of CD180/CD138 double-positive cells in a murine xenograft model when MM cells were inoculated with direct attachment to BMSC. Knockdown of CD180 canceled the LPS response in vitro and in vivo Promoter analyses identified IKZF1 (Ikaros) as a pivotal transcriptional activator of the CD180 gene. Both cell adhesion and hypoxia activated transcription of the CD180 gene by increasing Ikaros expression and its binding to the promoter region. Pharmacological targeting of Ikaros by the immunomodulatory drug lenalidomide ameliorated the response of MM cells to LPS in a CD180-dependent manner in vitro and in vivo Thus, the CD180/MD-1 pathway may represent a novel mechanism of growth regulation of MM cells in a BM milieu and may be a therapeutic target of preventing the regrowth of dormant MM cells.Significance: This study describes a novel mechanism by which myeloma cells are regulated in the bone marrow, where drug resistance and dormancy can evolve after treatment, with potential therapeutic implications for treating this often untreatable blood cancer.

Abstract
AbstractIntroduction: Chronic subdural hematoma in clipped patients of unruptured intracranial aneurysms might lead to sudden neurological deterioration and may need emergency evacuation. We studied the effects of various factors in its etiology. Materials and methods: A retrospective study of 91operated clipped patients of unruptured aneurysms in the year 2014-2015 was taken. Various predisposing factors were studied. Results: Goreisan use was not associated with any reduction in post operative CSDH formation. Arachnoidoplasty and reduced post operative dead space contributed in a reduced formation of CSDH. Conclusion: Older male patients with aneurysms who had been treated with anticoagulant drugs should be considered candidates for additive ARP to prevent the development of postoperative CSDH.

Abstract
Xenografting must be considered as a means of establishing neural transplantation therapy and of securing fetal neural tissues as donor material. The early stage (embryonic day 8.5, E8.5) embryonic mesencephalic neural plate (NP) from transgenic mice was examined for possible application in effective xenografting therapy. As recipients, Parkinsonian rats treated with 6-hydroxydopamine were used, and as donors, GT4-2 mice into which a β-galactosidase gene was introduced to allow brain tissue differentiation from the recipients by X-gal staining. Three microscopic pieces of E8.5 GT4-2 mice NP were injected into the striatum of the Parkinsonian rats. Some hosts were given immunosuppressants (cyclophosphamide and FK506) (IS group), others were not (non-IS group). Amphetamine-induced rotation was examined at days 11 and 21 after grafting (D11 and D21, respectively), and morphological investigations were performed using hematoxylin-eosin (H-E), X-gal, and thyrosine hydroxylase (TH) staining. The rotations were counted in 30 of the 38 transplanted rats before and after grafting. Histological data were obtained from 19 of these 30 rats. In 11 of them the grafts survived (survival group) and in the remaining 8, the grafts were unsuccessful (rejection group). In the survival group at D11, the mean number of rotations made by transplanted rats expressed as a percentage of the number before grafting (rotation percentage) decreased to 43.8% (n = 9), which, in comparison with the average of 125.9% (n = 6) in the rejection group, reveals significant behavioral recovery (p < 0.01). The rotation percentage at D21 was 23.8% in the survival group (n = 4) and 84.5% in the rejection group (n = 3). Behavioral recovery was thus seen to improve with time in the survival group. In the IS group (n = 19), the rotation percentages averaged 74.9% (D11, n = 15) and 51.1% (D21, n = 7), while the non-IS group averages were 136.7% (D11, n = 9) and 140.7% (D21, n = 9), indicating a tendency for better behavioral recovery in the IS group than in the non-IS group (p < 0.05). Fifteen IS group rats were studied histologically, 10 (sacrificed on D11, D21) from the survival group and 5 (sacrificed on D11, D21) from the rejection group. In the non-IS group (n = 4), there was a graft in only one rat sacrificed on D11. There were many X-gal positive and TH positive cells in the grafts, suggesting that mouse NP survived, and differentiated into TH positive neurons in the rat brain. Xenografted NP has the potential to cure central nervous system diseases.

Abstract
We have previously developed a reproducible model of transient forebrain ischaemia in rats by bilateral carotid artery occlusion combined with temporary increase of ICP. With this model, reversibility of the energy metabolism and intracellular pH (pHi) was investigated by 31P-MRS during 120 min of recirculation in three groups of, respectively, 30, 60, and 120 min of ischaemia. With the induction of ischaemia, ATP and phosphocreatine (PCr) disappeared, and measurement of pHi showed severe acidosis in all rats. In the 30 min ischaemia group, both energy metabolism and pHi recovered almost completely. In the 60 min ischaemia group, ATP recovered to 74% of control values, but pHi showed full recovery. In the 120 min ischaemia group, ATP recovered to about 50% of control values, and recovery of pHi was variable. Showing logarithmical changes during recirculation in ATP and PCr, the rate of metabolic recovery was fast during 60 min of recirculation, but it decreased and reached plateau thereafter in all groups. Recovery of pHi was affected by ATP levels, and was precipitously accelerated as ATP levels exceeded 50% of pre-ischaemic values. These results suggest that prolongation of the duration of ischaemia limits the restoration of the energy state, and the quality of pHi recovery after cerebral ischaemia is affected by the degree of ATP recovery during 60 min of recirculation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In Japan, S-1 plus cisplatin has been used as first-line therapy for advanced gastric cancer (AGC). Patients with no response to first-line treatment with S-1 often receive a taxane-alone or irinotecan-alone as second-line treatment. However, second-line treatment with S-1 plus irinotecan is widely used in patients with AGC resistant to first-line S-1-based chemotherapy. The goal of this trial was to determine whether the consecutive use of S-1 plus irinotecan improves survival when compared with irinotecan-alone as second-line treatment for AGC. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients who had disease progression during first-line S-1-based chemotherapy were randomly assigned to receive S-1 plus irinotecan or irinotecan-alone. The S-1 plus irinotecan group received oral S-1 (40-60 mg/m(2)) on days 1-14 and intravenous irinotecan (150 mg/m(2)) on day 1 of a 21-day cycle. The irinotecan-alone group received the same dose of irinotecan intravenously on day 1 of a 14-day cycle. The primary end point was overall survival (OS). RESULTS From February 2008 to May 2011, a total of 304 patients were enrolled. The median OS was 8.8 months in the S-1 plus irinotecan group and 9.5 months in the irinotecan-alone group. This difference was not significant (hazard ratio for death, 0.99; 95% confidence interval 0.78-1.25; P = 0.92). Grade 3 or higher toxicities were more common in the S-1 plus irinotecan group than in the irinotecan-alone group. CONCLUSION The consecutive use of S-1 plus irinotecan is not recommended as second-line treatment in patients who are refractory to S-1-based first-line chemotherapy.

Abstract
The significance of patient and donor ethnicity on risk of acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and disease relapse after unrelated donor hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is not known. A total of 4335 patient-donor pairs from the International Histocompatibility Working Group in HCT met the following 3 criteria: (1) HLA-A, -B, -C, -DRB1, and -DQB1 allele matched donor, (2) diagnosis of leukemia, and (3) non-T cell depleted GVHD prophylaxis. Posttransplantation risks of acute GVHD and leukemia relapse were defined in Asian/Pacific Islander, white, African American, Hispanic, and Native American patients that underwent transplantation from donors with the same self-described background. Asian patients had a significantly lower incidence of acute GVHD (Japanese patients: 40.0% grades II to IV and 15.3% grades III to IV; non-Japanese Asian patients: 42.1% grades II to IV and 15.7% grades III to IV) compared with white patients (56.5% grades II to IV and 22.6% grades III to IV) (P < .001). The hazard ratio of acute GVHD for white patients was significantly higher than for Japanese patients. Unexpectedly, the hazard ratio of leukemia relapse in white patients with early disease status was also significantly higher than that in Japanese patients. These results provide a platform for future investigation into the genetic factors for unrelated donor HCT and clinical implications of diverse ethnic background.

Abstract
Anionic heterogemini surfactants with –COOH, –SO3H and –PO(OH)2 headgroups in combination were synthesized from Corynomicolic acid derivatives having R = C11H23. The –SO3H headgroup was obtained by the successive conversion of OH → OMs → SCN → SH → –SO3H. The PO(OH)2 headgroup was introduced by the conjugate-addition to E-isomer of α,β-unsaturated ester derived from Corynomycolic acid ester. Heterogemini surfactant with –SO3H and –PO(OH)2 headgroups was also synthesized from phosphonate analog of Corynomycolic acid. The stereoisomers (syn- and anti-isomers) of heterogemini surfactants were separately prepared except for heterogemini surfactants with –COOH and –PO(OH)2 headgroups. Effects of variation and stereochemistry of two anionic headgroups on their surfactant properties were also studied on the basis of surface tension measurements.

Abstract
The International Histocompatibility Working Group is a collaborative international effort to understand the HLA and non-HLA genetics of the transplantation barrier. The Working Group is comprised of experts in the fields of histocompatibility and immunogenetics, hematopoietic cell transplantation and outcomes research. Data for 25 855 unrelated donor transplants were submitted in support of research studies for the 16th International Histocompatibility Workshop. Active investigation is in progress in seven key areas: the impact of HLA matching, role of race and ethnicity, identification of permissible HLA mismatches, haplotype-associated determinants, minor histocompatibility antigens, immune response genes and KIR genetics. New hypotheses for the 16th workshop were developed for immunogenetic studies in cord blood and haploidentical-related donor transplantation.

Abstract
Interleukin IL-17 is a proinflammatory cytokine that has been implicated in the pathogenesis of various autoimmune diseases. The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), rs2275913, in the promoter region of the IL-17 gene is associated with susceptibility to ulcerative colitis. When we examined the impact of rs2275913 in a cohort consisting of 438 pairs of patients and their unrelated donors transplanted through the Japan Marrow Donor Program, the donor IL-17 197A allele was found to be associated with a higher risk of acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD; hazard ratio [HR], 1.46; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.00 to 2.13; P = 0.05). Next, we investigated the functional relevance of the rs2275913 SNP. In vitro stimulated T cells from healthy individuals possessing the 197A allele produced significantly more IL-17 than those without the 197A allele. In a gene reporter assay, the 197A allele construct induced higher luciferase activity than the 197G allele, and the difference was higher in the presence of T cell receptor activation and was abrogated by cyclosporine treatment. Moreover, the 197A allele displayed a higher affinity for the nuclear factor activated T cells (NFAT), a critical transcription factor involved in IL-17 regulation. These findings substantiate the functional relevance of the rs2275913 polymorphism and indicate that the higher IL-17 secretion by individuals with the 197A allele likely accounts for their increased risk for acute GVHD and certain autoimmune diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Current obesity is an established risk factor for endometrial cancer; however, the roles of weight gain during adulthood and obesity in early adulthood on endometrial cancer have not been elucidated. Here, we conducted a case-control study comprising 222 histologically diagnosed incident endometrial cancer cases and 2162 age- and menstrual-status matched non-cancer controls. METHODS Information on current body weight, weight and height at age 20 years, and lifestyle/environmental factors was obtained from a self-administered questionnaire. Subjects were classified into 3 groups according to change in body mass index (BMI, kg/m(2)) from age 20 years to enrollment (≤0 [reference], 0-3, and >3 kg/m(2)). The effects of adult BMI change and obesity in early adulthood were evaluated using an unconditional logistic regression model adjusted for potential confounders. RESULTS A high BMI at age 20 (BMI ≥25, BMI <25 as reference) was significantly positively associated with endometrial cancer risk (P = 0.005), as was a BMI increase during adulthood (0-3 BMI change, multivariate odds ratio [OR] = 1.28, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.88-1.87; >3 BMI change, OR = 2.02, 95% CI = 1.38-2.96; P-trend < 0.001). Parity and BMI at age 20 appeared to modify the effect of weight gain on cancer risk, albeit without statistical significance. This positive association of weight gain with risk was observed only for endometrioid adenocarcinoma. CONCLUSIONS The results show that endometrial cancer is positively associated with obesity at age 20 and weight gain during adulthood among Japanese women.

Abstract
Serine protease granzyme B plays important roles in infections, autoimmunity, transplant rejection, and antitumor immunity. A triple-mutated granzyme B variant that encodes three amino substitutions (Q48R, P88A, and Y245H) has been reported to have altered biological functions. In the polymorphism rs8192917 (2364A>G), the A and G alleles represent wild type QPY and RAH mutant variants, respectively. In this study, we analyzed the impact of granzyme B polymorphisms on transplant outcomes in recipients undergoing unrelated HLA-fully matched T-cell-replete bone marrow transplantation (BMT) through the Japan Donor Marrow Program. The granzyme B genotypes were retrospectively analyzed in a cohort of 613 pairs of recipients with hematological malignancies and their unrelated donors. In patients with myeloid malignancies consisting of acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome, the donor G/G or A/G genotype was associated with improved overall survival (OS; adjusted hazard ratio [HR], 0.60; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.41–0.89; P = 0.01) as well as transplant related mortality (TRM; adjusted HR, 0.48; 95% CI, 0.27–0.86, P = 0.01). The recipient G/G or A/G genotype was associated with a better OS (adjusted HR, 0.68; 95% CI, 0.47–0.99; P = 0.05) and a trend toward a reduced TRM (adjusted HR, 0.61; 95% CI, 0.35–1.06; P = 0.08). Granzyme B polymorphism did not have any effect on the transplant outcomes in patients with lymphoid malignancies consisting of acute lymphoid leukemia and malignant lymphoma. These data suggest that there is an association between the granzyme B genotype and better clinical outcomes in patients with myeloid malignancies after unrelated BMT.

Abstract
We have operated on nine patients with a prepontine epidermoid extending to the bilateral cistern or the unilateral middle fossa using the anterior transpetrosal approach since 1986. The preoperative symptoms were unilateral trigeminal neuralgia, hearing disturbance, gait disturbance, double vision, facial hypesthesia, hemifacial spasm, and dysphagia. The most common neurological sign was unilateral trigeminal nerve disturbance. In two patients with useful hearing preoperatively lost, the labyrinth and mastoid air cells as well as the petrous apex were resected to extend the surgical field. Tumors were totally removed, except for capsules that were tightly adhered to the brain stem, cranial nerve, and vessels. The trigeminal neuralgia, hemifacial spasm, and dysphagia disappeared, but double vision improved only one out of three cases, and facial hypesthesia was unchanged in all cases. There were no postoperative deaths. New abducens palsy appeared in four cases and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage appeared in three cases postoperatively, but later these symptoms disappeared. In one case, postoperative chemical meningitis developed, and a ventricular shunt was required later to treat hydrocephalus. Postoperative follow-up, an average of 5,7 years, did not show any increases in any of the tumors. Based on our experience, we conclude that the anterior transpetrosal approach is more useful than the retromastoid suboccipital approach to resect the epidermoid located mainly in the prepontine cistern.

Abstract
Members of the nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptor (NLR) family participate in the innate immune system, exerting widespread effects on cytokine secretion, autophagy, and apoptosis. Recent studies in Caucasians revealed the association between mutants of NOD2, a member of the NLR family, and severity of acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). NOD2 polymorphism screening has been recommended for donor selection and risk assessment at bone marrow transplantation. To investigate whether NOD2 plays a role in the pathogenesis of GVHD in a Japanese population, we examined DNA from 142 bone marrow transplant patient/donor pairs to detect genetic variation in the NOD2 gene. No genetic variants of NOD2 were associated with the severity of acute GVHD in our patients. However, a weak association between a single nucleotide polymorphism in the NOD2 gene (R471C) and acute myeloid leukemia in the bone marrow patients (p = 0.029, odds ratio 4.08, 95% CI 1.22-13.67) was detected. This polymorphism was not prevalent in 479 Crohn's disease (CD) patients in Japan. These results suggest that, in the Japanese population, unlike the Caucasian, NOD2 is not a major contributor to susceptibility to severe acute GVHD.
