Abstract
Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers threatening women's health. Our previous study found that silibinin induced the death of MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cells. We noticed that silibinin-induced cell damage was accompanied by morphological changes, including the increased cell aspect ratio (cell length/width) and decreased cell area. Besides, the cytoskeleton is also destroyed in cells treated with silibinin. YAP/TAZ, a mechanical signal sensor interacted with extracellular pressure, cell adhesion area and cytoskeleton, is also closely associated with cell survival, proliferation and migration. Thus, the involvement of YAP/TAZ in the cytotoxicity of silibinin in breast cancer cells has attracted our interests. Excitingly, we find that silibinin inhibits the nuclear translocation of YAP/TAZ in MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells, and reduces the mRNA expressions of YAP/TAZ target genes, ACVR1, MnSOD and ANKRD. More importantly, expression of YAP1 gene is negatively correlated with the survival of the patients with breast cancers. Molecular docking analysis reveals high probabilities for binding of silibinin to the proteins in the YAP pathways. DARTS and CETSA results confirm the binding abilities of silibinin to YAP and LATS. Inhibiting YAP pathway either by addition of verteporfin, an inhibitor of YAP/TAZ-TEAD, or by transfection of si-RNAs targeting YAP or TAZ further enhances silibinin-induced cell damage. While enhancing YAP activity by silencing LATS1/2 or overexpressing YAPS127/397A, an active form of YAP, attenuates silibinin-induced cell damage. These findings demonstrate that inhibition of the YAP/TAZ pathway contributes to cytotoxicity of silibinin in breast cancers, shedding lights on YAP/TAZ-targeted cancer therapies.

Abstract
Background Drastic changes such as school closures and stay-at-home measures due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, may have long-term negative effects on children's mental health; however, longitudinal studies after 2021 are limited. This study aimed to observe the long-term effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on children's mental health by exploring changes in their mental health over a period of 18 months. Study design We conducted a longitudinal study at Chiba Prefecture in Japan, focusing on schoolchildren's mental health changes. Methods Data were obtained from the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) questionnaire conducted at single primary school three times from October 2021 to March 2023 which and included 183 participants. This study adopted a linear-mixed model to evaluate changes in children's SDQ scores, with sex and grade as the independent variables, and participants as a random effect. Results Regarding changes in SDQ scores, there were no significant changes in the total difficulty scores or in each subscale; Emotional Symptoms, Conduct Problems, Hyperactivity/Inattention, Peer Problems, and Prosocial Behavior. There was no statistically significant interaction between changes in SDQ scores and sex. Conclusions This report indicates that the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the mental health of Japanese primary schoolchildren was negligible in the later phase of the pandemic. However, the impact may differ from country to country owing to factors such as social restrictions during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Perioperative symptomatic carotid artery occlusion after carotid endarterectomy is a rare complication. In this study, we present a case of symptomatic acute carotid artery occlusion that occurred after carotid endarterectomy in a patient with coexistent subclavian artery steal phenomenon, which was successfully treated with subclavian artery stenting. CASE PRESENTATION A 57-year-old East Asian female presented with stenosis in the left common carotid artery and left subclavian artery along with subclavian steal. The proximal segment of the left anterior cerebral artery was hypoplastic, and the posterior communicating arteries on both sides were well-developed. Left internal carotid artery stenosis progressed during the follow-up examination; therefore, left carotid endarterectomy was performed. On the following day, symptoms of cerebral perfusion deficiency appeared due to occlusion of the left carotid artery. The stenotic origin of the left common carotid artery and the suspected massive thrombus in the left carotid artery posed challenges to carotid revascularization. Therefore, left subclavian artery stenting for the subclavian steal phenomenon was determined to be the best option for restoring cerebral blood flow to the whole brain. Her symptoms improved after the procedure, and the postprocedural workup revealed improved cerebral blood flow. CONCLUSION Subclavian artery stenting is safe and may be helpful in patients with cerebral perfusion deficiency caused by intractable acute carotid occlusion coexisting with the subclavian steal phenomenon. Revascularization of asymptomatic subclavian artery stenosis is generally not recommended. However, cerebral circulatory insufficiency as a comorbidity may be worth considering.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to clarify the relationship between primary site and lymphatic drainage pattern for malignant skin tumors in the head and neck region. Malignant melanoma and squamous cell carcinoma in the head and neck region are known to have poor prognosis because of lymph node metastasis. Nevertheless, numerous aspects of lymphatic drainage patterns remain elusive. METHODS We statistically analyzed data of 47 patients with malignant skin tumors in the head and neck region. Information was collected on the patients' clinical characteristics, primary tumor site, and lymphatic drainage patterns. RESULTS The parotid lymph nodes drained the greatest amount of lymph from skin tumors of the head and neck. Important lymphatic drainage pathways were the superficial cervical nodes for primary tumors in the buccal/nasal region, level IA and level IB nodes for primary tumors in the lip region, the occipital nodes, posterior auricular nodes, and level VA nodes in the parietal/occipital region, and the preauricular nodes in the auricular region. CONCLUSION These findings have considerable significance in terms of understanding lymphatic drainage patterns for malignant skin tumors in the head and neck and may be useful for clinical decision-making and when planning treatment. Further research and clinical applications are expected to contribute to an improved prognosis in patients with cutaneous head and neck malignancies.

Abstract
Collagen I is a major component of extracellular matrix in human skin, and is also widely used in a variety of skin-care products. In this study, we investigated the modulatory roles of collagen I on human immortalized keratinocytes HaCaT, especially when cells were irradiated with UVB. Interestingly, the cells grown on plates coated by molecular collagen I, but not fibrillar collagen I, acquired certain resistance against UVB damages, as shown by increased survival and reduced apoptosis. The accumulation of dysfunctional mitochondria in UVB-treated cells was attenuated by molecular collagen I-coating. Interestingly, molecular collagen I rescued the loss of mitochondrial biogenesis in cells treated with UVB. Loss of PINK1/parkin-mediated mitophagy was dominant for the accumulation of dysfunctional mitochondria after UVB irradiation. Of note, cells cultured on molecular collagen I-precoated plates exhibited reserved mitophagy after UVB irradiation, as reflected by the enhanced protein level of PINK1/parkin, increased mitochondrial ubiquitin and the co-localization of lysosomes and mitochondria. Moreover, in UVB-treated cells, inhibiting mitophagy by Cyclosporin A, or by silencing PINK1 or parkin, disturbed the resolution of mitochondrial stress and reduced the protective effect of molecular collagen I, indicating that mitophagy is pivotal for the protection of collagen I against UVB damage in keratinocytes HaCaT. Collectively, this study reveals an unexpected protective role of collagen I, which facilitates mitophagy to rescue cells under UVB irradiation, providing a new direction for clinical application of collagen products.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the long-term outcomes of patients treated under our perfusion-based strategy and assess whether conservative treatment without surgical treatment under our strategy is acceptable. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 315 adult and 137 pediatric MMD patients (follow-up period ≥ 3 years from 2001 to 2020) were included. Follow-up events in each patient group (pediatric or adult, surgically treated or conservatively treated) were evaluated and compared to each other using a log-rank test. Risk factors for stroke and nonstroke events were also investigated using a multivariate Cox proportional hazard model. RESULTS In adult-onset patients, the stroke event rates (person-year %) were not different between surgically treated patients and conservatively treated patients (2.00 % vs. 1.59 %, p = 0.558); however, conservative patients showed a higher stroke rate than surgically treated hemispheres (0.34 %; p = 0.025) and hemorrhagic stroke was the major type (18/26, 69.2 %). Hemorrhagic onset was associated with increased risk of stroke in adults (hazard ratio (95 % confidence interval) = 2.43 (1.10-5.36)). In pediatric-onset patients, no conservatively treated patients experienced stroke; however, nonstroke events occurred more frequently than in surgically treated hemispheres (4.86 % vs. 1.71 %, p = 0.020 for transient ischemic attack; and 7.91 % vs. 1.31 %, p < 0.001 for asymptomatic progression on magnetic resonance angiography). CONCLUSIONS In adult patients, conservatively treated patients experienced stroke more frequently, especially hemorrhagic stroke. An additive strategy to prevent stroke in hemorrhagic-onset patients without hemodynamic disturbance seems to be needed. Pediatric patients with mild hemodynamic disturbance can be safely observed without initial surgical intervention, but close follow-up for disease progression is necessary.

Abstract
Benign uterine leiomyoma (U.LMA) and malignant uterine leiomyosarcoma (U.LMS), both uterine mesenchymal tumors, are distinguished by the number of cells exhibiting mitotic activity. However, uterine mesenchymal tumors contain tumor cells with various cell morphologies; therefore, making a diagnosis, including differentiating between benign and malignant tumors, is difficult. For example, cotyledonoid dissecting leiomyoma (CDL) or uterine smooth muscle tumors of uncertain malignant potential (STUMPs) are a group of uterine mesenchymal tumors for which a differential diagnosis is challenging. To date, a standardized classification system for uterine mesenchymal tumors has not yet been established. Furthermore, definitive preoperative imaging techniques or hematological examinations for the potential inclusion of CDL or STUMP in the differential diagnosis have not been defined. Several clinical studies have reported that there is no correlation between biomarker expression and mitotic rate or tumor recurrence. The immunohistochemical biomarkers reported so far cannot effectively help determine the malignant potential of CDL or STUMPs in patients who wish to become pregnant in the future. The establishment of gene expression profiles or detection of pathogenic variants by using next-generation molecular techniques can facilitate disease prediction, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis. We examined the oncological properties of STUMP in adults using molecular pathological techniques on tissue excised from patients with uterine mesenchymal tumor. In a clinical study conducted by our medical team, the results of gene expression profiling indicated factors that may be associated with malignancy of uterine mesenchymal tumors. We herein describe the problems in diagnosing uterine mesenchymal tumors along with the results of the latest clinical studies. It is expected that the establishment of a diagnostic method targeting the characteristics of mesenchymal tumor cells will lead to the treatment of malignant tumors with a low risk of recurrence and metastasis.

Abstract
Ferroptosis, an iron-dependent cell death, is caused by lipid peroxidation. Noteworthily, accumulation of iron and lipid peroxidation are found in the proximity of the neuritic plaque, a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD), but the relationship between ferroptosis and neuroinflammation in AD is unclear. Silibinin, extracted from the Silybum marianum, is possibly developed as an agent for AD treatment from its neuroprotective effect, but the effect of silibinin on sporadic AD that accounts for more than 95% of AD remains unclear. To determine whether silibinin alleviates the pathogenesis of sporadic AD and investigate the underlying mechanisms, STZ-treated HT22 murine hippocampal neurons and intracerebroventricular injection of streptozotocin (ICV-STZ) rats, a sporadic AD model, were used in this study. Results show that silibinin not only promotes survival of STZ-treated HT22 cells, but also ameliorates the cognitive impairment and anxiety/depression-like behavior of ICV-STZ rats. We here demonstrate that silibinin evidently inhibits the protein level of p53 as well as upregulates the protein level of cystine/glutamate antiporter SLC7A11 and ferroptosis inhibitor GPX4, but not p21, leading to the protection against STZ-induced ferroptotic damage. Immunofluorescent staining also shows that accumulation of lipid peroxidation induced by ferroptotic damage leads to increased fluorescence of 8-oxo-deoxyguanosine (8-OHDG), a maker of oxidized DNA. The oxidized DNA then leaks to the cytoplasm and upregulates the expression of the stimulator of interferon gene (STING), which triggers the production of IFN-β and other inflammatory cascades including NF-κB/TNFα and NLRP3/caspase 1/IL-1β. However, the treatment with silibinin blocks the above pathological changes. Moreover, in HT22 cells with/without STZ treatment, GPX4-knockdown increases the protein level of STING, indicating that the ferroptotic damage leads to the activation of STING signaling pathway. These results imply that silibinin exerts neuroprotective effect on an STZ-induced sporadic AD model by downregulating ferroptotic damage and thus the downstream STING-mediated neuroinflammation.

Abstract
Certain mutant strains of SARS-CoV-2 are known to spread widely among humans, including the receptor binding domain (RBD) mutant, Y453F, from farmed minks, and the RBD mutant, N501Y, a mutation common to three major SARS-CoV-2 subvariants (B.1.1.7, B.1.351, and B.1.1.248) and omicron type SARS-CoV-2 BQ.1.1 and XBB.1.16 subvariants. We investigated the characteristics of the RBD mutants, Y453F and N501Y, using three-dimensional structural analysis. We also investigated the effect of Y453F, N501Y or the mutants of RBD of omicron type SARS-CoV-2 BQ.1.1 and XBB.1.16 subvariants on neutralizing antibodies in serum derived from individuals including children (aged 5-11 years) inoculated with mRNA based COVID-19 vaccine (BNT162b2: Pfizer/BioNTech) or COVID-19-positive patients or children (aged 5-11 years) after vaccination with BNT162b2. Our results suggest that SARS-CoV-2 subspecies with the RBD mutations Y453F or N501Y partially escaped detection by 4 neutralizing monoclonal antibodies and 21 neutralizing antibodies in serums derived from COVID-19-positive patients. The significantly low antibody titer of children against Omicron type SARS-CoV-2 BQ.1.1 subvariant and XBB.1.16 subvariant in Japan. Infection with SARS-CoV-2 subspecies that causes serious symptoms in humans may spread globally. In particular, since the antibody titer against the omicron type is low in children (aged 5-11 years) who have been vaccinated with conventional vaccines, therefore it is important for children to receive vaccines specific for the omicron type.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is induced by the abundance of glucose and lipids, which causes glucolipotoxicity to the pancreatic β-cells. Silibinin is a natural flavonoid possessing the regulatory activity on insulin production and therapeutic activity in diabetic mice; however, its effect on glucolipotoxicity is not fully explained. This in vitro study investigates the effects of silibinin on palmitic acid (PA) and high glucose (HG)-induced cell loss and ferroptosis of rat insulinoma INS-1 cells. In the cells treated with PA and HG, expressions of glucose transporter 4 (Glut4) and carnitine acyltransferase I (CPT1) for β-oxidation of fatty acids are reduced. Mitochondria are the metabolic organelles for glucose and fatty acids. The mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and ATP production were decreased, while the ROS level was elevated in the cells treated with PA and HG, indicating an induction of mitochondrial disorder. Cell loss was partially rescued by ferroptosis inhibition, suggesting an involvement of ferroptosis in the cells treated with PA and HG. More importantly, the increases in total iron, lipid ROS, MDA and COX-2, and the decrease in ferroptosis inhibitory molecules GSH, GPX4 and FSP1 appeared in the cells treated with PA and HG, confirming the occurrence of ferroptosis. Moreover, PINK1/parkin-mediated mitophagy, a vital process for selective elimination of damaged mitochondria, was blocked. Interestingly, silibinin rescued the mitochondria, restricted the ferroptosis and restored the mitophagy. By using the pharmacological stimulator and inhibitor of mitophagy, and si-RNA transfection to silence PINK1 expression, silibinin's protective effect against ferroptosis caused by PA and HG treatment was found to depend on mitophagy. Collectively, our current study reveals the new mechanisms for the protection of silibinin against the injury of INS-1 cells treated with PA and HG, elucidates the participation of ferroptosis in glucolipotoxicity, highlighting the involvement of mitophagy in defense against ferroptotic cell death.

Abstract
Ultraviolet B (UVB) irradiation causes skin inflammation and apoptosis. Mitochondria are highly dynamic and undergo constant fusion and fission that are essential for maintaining physiological functions of cells. Although dysfunction of mitochondria has been implicated in skin damages, little is known about the roles of mitochondrial dynamics in these processes. UVB irradiation increases abnormal mitochondrial content but decreases mitochondrial volume in immortalized human keratinocyte HaCaT cells. UVB irradiation resulted in marked upregulation of mitochondrial fission protein dynamin-related protein 1 (DRP1) and downregulation of mitochondrial outer membrane fusion proteins 1 and 2 (MFN1 and MFN2) in HaCaT cells. Mitochondrial dynamics was discovered to be crucial for NLRP3 inflammasome and cGAS-STING pathway activation, as well as the induction of apoptosis. Inhibition of mitochondrial fission by treatments with a DRP1 inhibitor, mdivi-1, or with DRP1-targeted siRNA, efficiently prevented UVB-induced NLRP3/cGAS-STING mediated pro-inflammatory pathways or apoptosis in the HaCaT cells, whereas inhibition of mitochondrial fusion with MFN1and 2 siRNA increased these pro-inflammatory pathways or apoptosis. The enhanced mitochondrial fission and reduced fusion caused the up-regulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Application of an antioxidant, N-acetyl-l-cysteine (NAC), which scavenges excessive ROS, attenuated inflammatory responses through suppressing NLRP3 inflammasome and cGAS-STING pathway activation, and rescued cells from apoptosis caused by UVB-irradiation. Together, our findings revealed the regulation of NLRP3/cGAS-STING inflammatory pathways and apoptosis by mitochondrial fission/fusion dynamics in UVB-irradiated HaCaT cells, providing a new strategy for the therapy of UVB skin injury.

Abstract
Ultraviolet B (UVB) irradiation causes skin damages. In this study, we focus on the involvement of mitochondrial disorders in UVB injury. Surprisingly, UVB irradiation increases the amounts of mitochondria in human immortalized keratinocytes HaCaT. However, further analysis shows that ATP levels decreased by UVB treatment in accordance with the collapse of mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), suggesting an accumulation of dysfunctional mitochondria in UVB-irradiated HaCaT cells. Mitophagy, mainly mediated by PINK1 and parkin, is critical for the elimination of damaged mitochondria. Western blot results show that the levels of both PINK1 and parkin are decreased in UVB-irradiated cells, indicating the impairment of mitophagy. Silencing the expression of PINK1 or parkin by transfection of siRNA shows essentially the same damage to the cells as UVB irradiation does, including increased mitochondrial amount, decreased MMP and ATP production, and enhanced apoptosis, evidencing that repression of PINK1/parkin-mediated mitophagy plays a primary cause of UVB-caused cells damages. We previously found that HaCaT cells exposed to UVB showed activation of the cGAS-STING pathway and apoptosis. Here, silencing PINK1 or parkin also increases the protein levels of cGAS and STING, facilitates nuclear accumulation of NF-κB, and promotes the transcription of IFNβ, suggesting for the activation of STING pathway. Mitophagy impairment either by UVB-irradiation or by PINK1/parkin silencing initiates caspase-3-mediated apoptosis, as shown by the activation of caspase-3 and cleavage of PARP, as well as the increase of Hoechst-positive stained cells and Annexin V-positive cells. Further studies find that Bax-mediated permeabilization of mitochondrial membrane is critical for cell apoptosis, as well as the cytosolic leakage of mtDNA in UVB-treated cells, which results in cGAS-STING activation, and these processes are negatively-regulated by PINK1/parkin-mediated mitophagy. This study reveals the involvement of dysfunctional mitochondria due to impaired mitophagy in the damaging effect of UVB irradiation on HaCaT cells. Restoring the mitophagy has the potential to be developed as a new strategy to protect skin from UVB damages.

Abstract
Excessive physical exercise (overtraining, OT) charactered by long-term and excessive training results in the damage of multiple vital tissues including hippocampus which plays a critical role in learning and memory. A combination of dasatinib (D) plus quercetin (Q) (D+Q) belongs to senolytic drugs which selectively kill senescent cells in vitro and vivo. In this study, the rats that suffered a five-week excessive swimming training were subjected to the oral administration of D+Q. D+Q alleviated the decline in exercise performance of OT rats during the swimming training, and prevented learning and memory deficits in Morris water maze, Y-maze and novel object recognition tests after excessive swimming training. Analytical results by SA-β-gal staining and western blotting showed that D+Q significantly reduced senescent cells with repressed expression of senescence-related proteins, p53 and p21, in hippocampus. Nissl and immunohistochemical staining showed that D+Q significantly attenuated neuronal loss caused by apoptosis. Interestingly, we observed elevated level of cleaved caspase 3, an apoptosis executor protein, in p21 positive hippocampus cells by D+Q treatment in immunofluorescent staining, suggesting that senescent cells were induced to apoptosis in D+Q-treated rats. The positive control drug, silibinin, showed similar protective effect against OT, but did not induce the apoptosis of senescent cells, suggesting a difference in the protective mechanisms. These results indicated that D+Q alleviates overtraining-induced deficits in learning and memory through elimination of senescent cells and reduction of apoptotic cell number.

Abstract
Samples of the carbonaceous asteroid Ryugu were brought to Earth by the Hayabusa2 spacecraft. We analyzed 17 Ryugu samples measuring 1 to 8 millimeters. Carbon dioxide-bearing water inclusions are present within a pyrrhotite crystal, indicating that Ryugu's parent asteroid formed in the outer Solar System. The samples contain low abundances of materials that formed at high temperatures, such as chondrules and calcium- and aluminum-rich inclusions. The samples are rich in phyllosilicates and carbonates, which formed through aqueous alteration reactions at low temperature, high pH, and water/rock ratios of <1 (by mass). Less altered fragments contain olivine, pyroxene, amorphous silicates, calcite, and phosphide. Numerical simulations, based on the mineralogical and physical properties of the samples, indicate that Ryugu's parent body formed ~2 million years after the beginning of Solar System formation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Over-activation of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) is involved in sporadic Alzheimer's disease. Silibinin, a natural flavonoid gained from the seeds of Silybum marianum, exerts neuroprotective effects on sporadic AD models, but its impacts on NMDARs remain unknown. PURPOSE To study silibinin's regulatory effects on NMDARs pathway in sporadic AD models. METHODS MTT assay, western blotting, confocal microscopy, flow cytometry, RT-PCR, and siRNA transfection etc. were used for cellular and molecular studies. The direct interactions between silibinin and NMDAR subunits were evaluated by computational molecular docking, drug affinity responsive target stability (DARTS) assay and cellular thermal shift assay (CETSA). Y maze test, novel objects recognition test and Morris water maze test were conducted to examine the learning and memory ability of rats. RESULTS An in vitro AD model was established by treating HT22 murine hippocampal neurons with streptozotocin (STZ), as evidenced by the amyloid β (Aβ) deposition and hyperphosphorylation of tau proteins. Silibinin shows protection of neurons against STZ-induced cell damage. It is noteworthy that STZ-induced cellular calcium influx is inhibited by silibinin-treatment, indicating the possible modulation of calcium channels. Studies on NMDARs, the most widely distributed calcium channel, by using molecular docking, DARTS and CESTA, reveal that the GluN2B subunit, but not GluN2A, is the potential target of silibinin. Further studies using the pharmacological agonist (NMDA) and the GluN2B-specific inhibitor (Ifenprodil) or siRNA, indicate that the protection by silibinin treatment from STZ-induced cytotoxicity is medicated through interference with GluN2B-containing NMDARs, followed by the upregulation of CaMKIIα/ BDNF/ TrkB signaling pathway and improved levels of synaptic proteins (SYP and PSD-95). The results in vivo using rats intracerebroventricularly injected with STZ (ICV-STZ), a well-established sporadic AD model, confirm that silibinin improves learning and memory ability in association with modulation of the GluN2B/CaMKIIα/ BDNF/TrkB signaling pathway. CONCLUSION Inhibiting over-activation of GluN2B-containing NMDARs is involved in the neuroprotective effect of silibinin on STZ-induced sporadic AD models.

Abstract
The recommended treatment strategy for stage 3 bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ) is currently rigid plate fixation without bone reconstruction. However, a recent systematic review indicated the utility of microsurgical reconstruction after resection of BRONJ. Several types of flaps have been described but their applications are controversial. Here we present a detailed reconstruction plan for obtaining better outcomes in patients with maxillary and mandibular BRONJ. Given that progressive maxillary BRONJ is often invasive to the skin, including the eyelid, leading to functional loss such as leakage of discharge and ectropion, several revision surgeries are needed to increase the volume in the defect after the free flap transfer. For progressive mandibular BRONJ, hemi-mandibulectomy to subtotal mandibulectomy with an adequate margin from the necrotic bone is necessary, followed by a well-designed fibular free flap.

Abstract
PURPOSE Severe lymphedema is difficult to treat because of the associated extensive scar formation. Therefore, preventing scar formation might alleviate the severity of lymphedema following lymphadenectomy. In this study, we evaluated the usefulness of flap transfer, performed immediately after lymphadenectomy, for preventing scar formation. METHODS Twenty-three patients with subcutaneous malignancy in a lower extremity, who underwent inguino-pelvic lymphadenectomy, were divided into groups based on whether flap transfer was performed. The severity of lymphedema was categorized according to the ratio of the circumference of the affected extremity to that of the unaffected extremity, as mild (< 20% increase in volume), moderate (20-40%), or severe (> 40%). RESULTS In the 18 patients who underwent lymphadenectomy without flap transfer, lymphedema was classified as mild in 7, moderate in 7, and severe in 4. In the five patients who underwent lymphadenectomy with flap transfer, lymphedema was classified as mild in 4 and moderate in 1. This difference between the groups did not reach significance. CONCLUSIONS The findings of this study suggest that flap transfer may help prevent scar formation and contribute to the restoration of lymph flow after lymphadenectomy.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Systemic inflammation resulting from comorbidities is postulated to play a central role in the pathophysiology of heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Lymphopenia is a common manifestation of systemic inflammation and a prognostic factor in patients with HF. However, the association of lymphopenia with the comorbidity burden is unknown, and its prognostic value in patients with HFpEF admitted due to acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) also remains elusive.
Purpose
We sought to clarify the relation of lymphopenia with the comorbidity burden, as well as its prognostic value and complementarity with the Get with the Guidelines-Heart Failure (GWTG-HF) risk score in ADHF patients with HFpEF.
Methods
Patients' data were extracted from the Prospective mUlticenteR obServational stUdy of patIenTs with Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction (PURSUIT-HFpEF), which is a prospective multicentre registry for patients with ADHF with a LVEF ≥50%. We analysed data of patients admitted between June 2016 and December 2020 who survived to discharge. The total lymphocyte count (per μL) and GWTG-HF risk score were obtained on admission, as previously reported. Comorbidity burden was defined as the number of comorbidities from the following: atrial fibrillation, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, coronary artery disease, chronic kidney disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, anaemia, and obesity. The study endpoint was all-cause death.
Results
Over a median follow-up of 417 days, 181 of the 1013 included patients died. The proportion of patients with a total lymphocyte count in the lowest tertile was increasing with the increase in comorbidity burden (Figure 1). In the multivariate Cox analysis, a total lymphocyte count in the intermediate (hazard ratio [HR] 1.55, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.00–2.41, p=0.0486) and lowest tertile (HR 2.23, 95% CI 1.47–3.38, p=0.0002) was independently associated with all-cause death. There was a significant difference in the all-cause death rate among the groups stratified by total lymphocyte count tertile (Figure 2). The total lymphocyte count had a higher C-statistic value (0.627) for the prediction of all-cause death than the GWTG-HF risk score, and the C-statistic value of the GWTG-HF risk score was improved when the total lymphocyte count was added (0.613 to 0.636, p=0.0260).
Conclusions
Lymphopenia was significantly associated with comorbidity burden. Furthermore, it was a useful marker of poor prognosis in hospitalised patients with acute HFpEF and was shown to be complementary to the contemporary HF prognostic score.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a chronic and progressive disease, but limited therapeutic strategies are currently available. Although left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (DD) is a prominent mechanism of HFpEF, a certain number of patients with HFpEF have a normal diastolic function (ND) or indeterminate diastolic function (ID). With the progressive nature of HFpEF, diastolic function may change over time. However, the change of diastolic function, its predictor and prognosis in patients with clinically established HFpEF remains unknown.
Purpose
To investigate the clinical trajectory and outcomes of patients with HFpEF with ND or ID and to identify factors associated with progression from ND or ID at discharge to DD at 1-year follow-up.
Methods
Using data from a prospective multicenter observational study of patients with HFpEF, we extracted 289 patients with HFpEF with ND or ID at discharge who had echocardiographic data at 1-year follow-up for the re-evaluation of diastolic function. Diastolic function was assessed according to the 2016 American Society of Echocardiography recommendations. Patients were classified according to the absence or presence of progression from ND or ID to DD at 1 year. The primary endpoint was a composite of all-cause death and HF rehospitalization.
Results
Median age was 81 years, and 138 (47.8%) patients were female. At 1 year, 107 (37%) patients progressed to DD. During a median follow-up of 709 days, the composite endpoint occurred in 90 (31.1%) patients. Compared to patients without progression to DD, those with progression to DD had a significantly higher cumulative incidence rate of the composite endpoint (incidence rate: 11.7/100 person-year versus 23.3/100 person-year, P<0.001). Progression to DD (adjusted HR: 2.014, 95% CI: 1.239–3.273, P=0.005) was independently associated with the composite endpoint. Age (adjusted OR: 1.046, 95% CI: 1.008–1.087, P=0.018), body mass index (BMI) (adjusted OR: 1.107, 95% CI: 1.029–1.192, P=0.006), and serum albumin (adjusted OR: 0.459, 95% CI: 0.216–0.974, P=0.042) were independently associated with progression from ND or ID to DD at 1 year.
Conclusion
More than one-third of patients with HFpEF with ND or ID progressed to DD at 1 year and had poor clinical outcomes. Age, BMI, and serum albumin were independently associated with this progression.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The effectiveness of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE-I) and angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARB) has not been demonstrated in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). We recently reported significant interaction between the use of ACE-I and/or ARB (ACE-I/ARB) and frailty on prognosis in patients with HFpEF.
Purpose
In the present study, we examined the association between ACE-I/ARB and prognosis in patients with HFpEF stratified by the presence or absence of frailty.
Methods
We examined the association between the use of ACE-I/ARB and prognosis according to the presence (Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS) ≥5) or absence (CFS ≤4) of frailty in patients with HFpEF in a post-hoc analysis of registry data. Primary endpoint was the composite of all-cause mortality and heart failure admission. Secondary endpoints were all-cause mortality and heart failure admission.
Results
Of 1059 patients, median age was 83 years and 45% were male. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the risk of composite endpoint (log-rank P=0.001) and all-cause death (log-rank P=0.005) in patients with ACE-I/ARB was lower in those with CFS ≥5, but similar between patients with and without ACE-I/ARB in patients with CFS ≤4 (composite endpoint: log-rank P=0.830; all-cause death: log-rank P=0.192). In a multivariable Cox proportional hazards model, use of ACE-I/ARB was significantly associated with lower risk of the composite endpoint (hazard ratio = 0.52, 95% CI: 0.33–0.83, P=0.005) and heart failure admission (hazard ratio = 0.45, 95% CI: 0.25–0.83, P=0.010) in patients with CFS ≥5, but not in patients with CFS ≤4 (composite endpoint: hazard ratio = 1.41, 95% CI: 0.99–2.02, P=0.059; heart failure admission: hazard ratio = 1.43, 95% CI: 0.94–2.18, P=0.091). The association between ACE-I or ARB and prognosis did not significantly differ by CFS (CFS ≤4: log-rank P=0.562; CFS ≥5: log-rank P=0.100, for with ACE-I vs. ARB, respectively). Adjusted HRs for CFS 1–4 were higher than 1.0, but were less than 1.0 at CFS 5.
Conclusions
In patients with HFpEF, use of ACE-I/ARB was associated with better prognosis in patients with frailty as assessed with the CFS, but not in those without frailty.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
A leadless pacemaker has been used widely. The necessity of using large sheath (23 Fr) is one of the disadvantages of implanting leadless pacemaker. There are some reports about deep vein thrombosis (DVT)after leadless pacemaker, but the accurate number of DVT after leadless pacemaker implantation is unknown.
Method
This retrospective study analyzed patients who were implanted leadless pacemaker from January 2018 to August 2022. We included the patients who were conducted ultrasound for DVT both before and after leadless implantation. The primary endpoint was incidence of DVT by ultrasound one day after leadless pacemaker implantation in the leg where sheath was inserted.
Results
89 patients were included in this study. The mean age of this study was 86.2±7.4 years old and 88 patients (99%) were implanted leadless pacemaker from their right femoral vein. 49 patients (55%) took anticoagulant before leadless pacemaker implantation. About the primary endpoint, 12 patients (13.5%: 8 patients without anticoagulant and 4 patients with anticoagulant) had newly asymptomatic DVT. After the univariate analysis, patients with low body weight (OR: 0.90, CI: 0.83–0.98, p=0.011), short height (OR: 0.87, CI: 0.79–0.96, p=0.005) and small diameter of the femoral vein (OR: 0.65, CI: 0.46–0.92, p=0.015) tended to have DVT. The use of anticoagulant did not affect the incidence of DVT (OR: 0.365, CI: 0.10–1.3, p=0.114).
Conclusion
Asymptomatic DVT by ultrasound is found in 13.5% of patients after leadless pacemaker. The small body patients might have easier to have DVT after leadless pacemaker. We should consider performing ultrasound to check for DVT in high-risk patients after leadless pacemaker implantation.

Abstract
Background
Improvement of quality of life (QOL) is one of the most important therapeutic goals for patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). It is, therefore, clinically relevant to comprehensively identify aggravating factors among cardiac factors, non-cardiac comorbidities, and social factors. The aim of this study was to elucidate determinant factors of impaired QOL and clarify the association between QOL and prognosis in patients with HFpEF.

Patient data were extracted from The Prospective mUlticenteR obServational stUdy of patIenTs with Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction (PURSUIT HFpEF) study. EuroQol 5 dimensions 5-level (EQ-5D-5L) data were obtained at discharge to evaluate patients' health-related QOL. A total of 864 patients were enrolled in this study. Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that only non-cardiac factors such as age, female sex, frailty, malnutrition and inflammation were significantly associated with low EQ-5D-5L score, whereas cardiac factors showed no significant association after multivariable adjustment. A total of 206 patients died over a mean follow-up period of 2.0±1.2 years. Kaplan–Meier survival curve analysis demonstrated a significant increase in risk of mortality stratified by tertiles of EQ-5D-5L score (p<0.0001). Cox multivariable analysis revealed that patients with low EQ-5D-5L score had a significantly greater risk of mortality than those with high EQ-5D-5L score (adjusted hazard ratio: 2.20 (1.40–3.45), p=0.001).
Conclusion
Among patients with HFpEF, non-cardiac factors such as age, female sex, frailty, malnutrition and inflammation are significantly associated with impaired QOL. The QOL score itself also offers useful prognostic information in patients with HFpEF.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
There are several reports showing that elevated heart rate (HR) is associated with poor outcomes in patients in sinus rhythm (SR) with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), although the association is weak or none in HFpEF patients with atrial fibrillation (Af). However, in previous studies, cardiac and non-cardiac factors which may be associated with elevated HR, have not been fully adjusted for.
Purpose
The purpose of this study is to explore covariates of elevated HR and to investigate the relationship between heart rate and mortality in HFpEF patients in SR.
Methods and results
Of the 1161 patients, who registered prospective multicenter, observational study of patients with HFpEF (PURSUIT-HFpEF), 726 patients in SR were examined. We performed laboratory testing and echocardiography in the compensated stage (in stable condition after treatment of acute decompensated HF). Geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) was calculated as nutrition index. Resting heart rate (HR) was analyzed as categorical (tertiles, T1–3). We followed the patients for median of 598 days (interquartile range 329–1028 days) to observe the outcome all-cause mortality.
The Kaplan analysis revealed that there was a significant difference between heart rate and mortality (log-rank, p=0.001). Characteristics were compared between patients in T1 (HR ≤63) and T3 (HR ≥75). There were no differences in cardiac factors between patients in T1 and T3. C-reactive protein (CRP) was significantly higher in patients in T3 than those in T1 (p=0.0004,). GNRI was significantly lower in patients in T3 than those in T1 (p=0.001). After adjustment for covariates including N-terminal pro-B type natriuretic peptide and estimated glomerular filtration rate, CRP and GNRI significantly correlated with HR (continuous variable) by multiple regression analysis (beta-coefficient = 1.52, p=0.003 and beta-coefficient = −0.14, p=0.04, respectively). Taking T1 as the reference, multivariable Cox regression analysis revealed that T3 was independently associated with mortality (hazard ratio: 2.10, 95% confidence interval: 1.33–3.32, p=0.001).
Conclusion
Although elevated HR was associated with enhanced inflammation and malnutrition, it itself was an independent predictor of death in HFpEF patients in SR.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Malnutrition and inflammation are associated with poor outcomes with heart failure (HF). It has been reported that advanced lung cancer inflammation index (ALI), calculated by body mass index × serum albumin level / neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) can be useful for the risk stratification and predicting the post-discharge prognosis of the patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF). However, there is no information available on the prognostic value of the serial ALI change in ADHF patients with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).
Methods and results
Patients' data were extracted from The Prospective mUlticenteR obServational stUdy of patIenTs with Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction (PURSUIT HFpEF) study, which is a prospective multicenter observational registry for ADHF-HFpEF in Osaka. Laboratory data and body weight measurements were performed at the discharge and 1 year after the discharge. We analyzed 527 patients after exclusion of patients on dialysis, in-hospital death, missing follow-up data, or missing data to calculate ALI. The study patients were categorized by the serial change from baseline to 1 year after the discharge (ΔALI) as follows: low tertile: ΔALI <−6.99 (n=176), middle tertile: −6.99 ≤ ALI <8.44 (n=176), and high tertile: 8.44 ≤ ΔALI (n=175). The endpoints of the present study were all-cause death (ACD) and cardiovascular death (CVD). During a mean follow-up period of 1.5±1.0 years, 94 patients had ACD and 40 patients had CVD. The Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that the patients with middle and low ΔALI at 1 year after heart failure hospitalization had a significantly greater risk of reaching the ACD and CVD than those with high ΔALI (ACD: 22% vs 22% vs 10%, p=0.0011, CVD: 10% vs 9% vs 3%, p=0.014). On multivariate Cox analysis, ΔALI was significantly associated with ACD independently of age, gender, serum NT-proBNP level, and baseline ALI after adjustment for NYHA functional class, serum creatinine level, serum hemoglobin level, serum CRP level, serum sodium level and LVEF.
Conclusion
This study showed that patients with the increased ALI after the discharge had improved outcome in comparison to those without the increased ALI. The serial change of ALI, a systemic inflammation-nutrition index, might be useful for stratifying ADHF patients with HFpEF at risk for the total mortality and cardiovascular mortality.

Abstract
PURPOSE Type V collagen (collagen V) is one of the important components of extracellular matrix (ECM) in pancreas. We previously reported that pre-coating collagen V on the culture dishes enhanced insulin production in INS-1 rat pancreatic β cells. In this study, we investigate the underlying mechanism. RESULTS Insulin biosynthesis and secretion are both increased in INS-1 cells cultured on collagen V-coated dishes, accompanied by the reduced nuclear translocation of Yes-associated protein (YAP), a transcriptional co-activator. YAP, the downstream effector of Hippo signaling pathway, plays an important role in the development and function of pancreas. Inhibition of YAP activation by verteporfin further up-regulates insulin biosynthesis and secretion. Silencing large tumor suppressor (LATS), a core component of Hippo pathway which inhibits activity of YAP by phosphorylation, by siRNA transfection inhibits both insulin biosynthesis and secretion. In the present study, the protein level of insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1 R), detected as the upstream molecule of YAP, is reduced in the INS-1 cells cultured on the dishes coated with collagen V. The silencing of IGF-1 R by siRNA transfection further enhances insulin biosynthesis and secretion. IGF-1 treatment reduces collagen V-induced up-regulation of insulin biosynthesis and secretion, accompanying the increased nuclear YAP. CONCLUSION Inhibition of IGF-1 R/YAP signal pathway is involved in collagen V-induced insulin biosynthesis and secretion in INS-1 cells.

Abstract
Recently, pretreatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has been shown to enhance the therapeutic effects of the combination therapy of ramucirumab (RAM) and docetaxel (DTX); however, its influence on the drug's side effects remains unclear. This study investigated the influence of pretreatment with ICIs on the incidence of neutropenia caused by RAM + DTX therapy in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Patients with NSCLC who received RAM + DTX therapy at Gifu Prefectural General Medical Center between April 2016 and December 2020 were enrolled. Retrospective data regarding age, sex, performance status and detailed treatment history, among others, at treatment initiation were collected from the patients' electronic medical records. Additionally, data on the course number of RAM + DTX therapy, supportive therapy and blood biochemical parameters, including leukocyte and neutrocyte counts, during the treatment period were collected. We identified 41 patients receiving RAM + DTX therapy. Among the more than grade 3 adverse events caused by this therapy, neutropenia was the most common (78.1%). Despite the fact that all previous risk factors influencing this incidence rate had corresponded, the only factor influencing the incidence rate of neutropenia more than grade 3 was ICI treatment history. A difference in the incidence of neutropenia more than grade 3 in the Kaplan-Meier curve was observed between patients with and without ICI pretreatment history (p = 0.037). The pretreatment history of ICI therapy affects the incidence of neutropenia caused by RAM + DTX therapy in patients with NSCLC.

Abstract
Excessive exposure to UVB induces skin diseases. Silibinin, a flavonolignan used for treating liver diseases, is found to be effective against UVB-caused skin epidermal and dermal cell damage. In this study we investigated the molecular mechanisms underlying. Human nonmalignant immortalized keratinocyte HaCaT cells and neonatal human foreskin fibroblasts HFFs were exposed to UVB irradiation. We showed that pre-treatment with silibinin dose-dependently decreased UVB-induced apoptosis of HaCaT cells. Furthermore, we showed that silibinin treatment inhibited nuclear translocation of YAP after UVB irradiation. Molecular docking analysis and DARTS assay confirmed the direct interaction of silibinin with YAP. Silencing YAP by siRNA had no influence on the survival of HaCaT cells, whereas inhibiting classical YAP-TEAD signaling pathway by siRNA targeting TEAD1 or its pharmaceutical inhibitor verteporfin further augmented UVB-induced apoptosis, suggesting that YAP-TEAD pathway was prosurvival, which did not participate in the protective effect of silibinin. We then explored the pro-apoptotic YAP-p73 pathway. p73 was upregulated in UVB-irradiated cells, but reduced by silibinin cotreatment. The mRNA and protein levels of p73 target genes (PML, p21 and Bax) were all increased by UVB but decreased by silibinin co-treatment. Inhibiting p73 by using siRNA reduced UVB-induced apoptosis, suggesting that downregulation of p73 was responsible for the cytoprotective effect of silibinin. In HFFs, the upregulated YAP-p73 pathway by UVB irradiation was also suppressed by silibinin. Collectively, YAP-p73 pathway is a major cause of the death of UVB-exposed epidermal HaCaT cells and dermal HFFs. Silibinin directly inhibits YAP-p73 pathway, exerting the protective action on UVB-irradiated skin cells.

Abstract
The extracellular matrix (ECM) regulates cell behavior through signal transduction and provides a suitable place for cell survival. As one of the major components of the extracellular matrix, type I collagen is involved in regulating cell migration, proliferation and differentiation. We present a system in which 3T3-L1 preadipocyte cells are induced for adipogenic differentiation on type I collagen coated dishes. Our previous study has found that type I collagen inhibits adipogenic differentiation via YAP activation. Here we further reveal that type I collagen inactivates autophagy by up-regulating mTOR activity via the YAP pathway. Under collagen-coating conditions, co-localization of lysosomes with mTOR was increased and the level of downstream protein p-S6K was elevated, accompanied by a decrease in the level of autophagy. Autophagy is negatively correlated with adipogenesis under type I collagen coating. Through the YAP-autophagy axis, type I collagen improves glycolipid metabolism accompanied by increased mitochondrial content, enhanced glucose uptake, reduced release of free fatty acids (FFAs) and decreased intracellular lipid accumulation. Our findings provide insight into the strategy for dealing with obesity: Type I collagen or the drugs with inhibitory effects on autophagy or YAP, have a potential to accelerate the energy metabolism of adipose tissue, so as to better maintain the homeostasis of glucose and lipids in the body, which can be used for achieving weight loss.

Abstract
Alcoholic liver disease has become one of the main causes of liver injury, and its prevention and cure are important medical tasks. Silibinin, a natural flavonoid glycoside, is a conventional hepatic protectant. This study elucidates the modulation of ferroptosis in silibinin's protective effects on ethanol- or acetaldehyde-induced liver cell damage by using human carcinomatous liver HepG2 cells and immortalized liver HL7702 cells. Our results show that ferroptosis is induced in the cells treated with ethanol or acetaldehyde, as evidenced by the increased ROS stress and iron level. Silibinin resolves the oxidative stress and reduces iron level. Ferroptosis induced by ethanol- or acetaldehyde involving nuclear receptor co-activator 4 (NCOA4)-dependent autophagic degradation of ferritin, a protein for storing iron is rescued by silibinin. PINK1 and Parkin-mediated mitophagy is arrested in ethanol- or acetaldehyde-treated cells but reversed by silibinin. Ferritin degradation and ROS level are further increased when PINK1 or Parkin is silenced in the cells treated with ethanol or acetaldehyde. Collectively, our study reveals that silibinin inhibits ethanol- or acetaldehyde-induced ferroptosis in two liver cell lines, HepG2 and HL7702 cells, providing new therapeutic strategies for alcoholic liver injury.

Abstract
Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV), a mosquito-borne virus, causes severe clinical symptoms in humans in the Asian-Pacific region, where it circulates in a primary transmission cycle among Culex tritaeniorhynchus mosquitoes, domestic swine (Sus scrofa domesticus), and wading birds. We report here an anomalous result that mosquito-borne JEV was detected in unfed host-questing ticks collected from the field in Japan. JEV genomic RNA was detected in four pools of Haemaphysalis flava nymphs collected in November and December 2019, and March 2020, when Cx. tritaeniorhynchus adults were not presumed to be active. Moreover, JEV antigenomic RNA was detected in some JEV-positive tick samples, suggesting virus replication in ticks. However, taken together with no infectious virus isolated, the possibility that the antigenomic RNA was derived from the undigested bloodmeal source in ticks cannot be ruled out. Thus, the role of the ticks as a natural reservoir for JEV remains to be confirmed.

Abstract
We have measured the 3d→2p transition x rays of kaonic ^{3}He and ^{4}He atoms using superconducting transition-edge-sensor microcalorimeters with an energy resolution better than 6 eV (FWHM). We determined the energies to be 6224.5±0.4(stat)±0.2(syst) eV and 6463.7±0.3(stat)±0.1(syst) eV, and widths to be 2.5±1.0(stat)±0.4(syst) eV and 1.0±0.6(stat)±0.3(stat) eV, for kaonic ^{3}He and ^{4}He, respectively. These values are nearly 10 times more precise than in previous measurements. Our results exclude the large strong-interaction shifts and widths that are suggested by a coupled-channel approach and agree with calculations based on optical-potential models.

Abstract
Introduction Case presentation Clinical discussion Conclusion The rectourethral fistula is a rare complication of total prostatectomy, but when it becomes intractable, it is difficult to treat. Surgical treatment is required, but there is no standard technique. We used a laparoscopic approach in combination with gracilis muscle flap filling via a transperineal approach. To our knowledge, this technique has only been reported in only one other case in the Japanese literature. In a case of high rectourethral fistula, the gracilis muscle flap with a laparoscopic approach allowed for safe and secure flap filling.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle regeneration requires extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling, including an acute and transient breakdown of collagen that produces gelatin. Although the physiological function of this process is unclear, it has inspired the application of gelatin to injured skeletal muscle for a potential pro-regenerative effect. Here, we investigated a bi-phasic effect of gelatin in skeletal muscle regeneration, mediated by the hormetic effects of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Low-dose gelatin stimulated ROS production from NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX2) and simultaneously upregulated the antioxidant system for cellular defense, reminiscent of the adaptive compensatory process during mild stress. This response triggered the release of the myokine IL-6, which stimulates myogenesis and facilitates muscle regeneration. By contrast, high-dose gelatin stimulated ROS overproduction from NOX2 and the mitochondrial chain complex, and ROS accumulation by suppressing the antioxidant system, triggering the release of TNFα, which inhibits myogenesis and regeneration. Our results have revealed a bi-phasic role of gelatin in regulating skeletal muscle repair mediated by intracellular ROS, the antioxidant system and cytokine (IL-6 and TNFα) signaling. Summary: Application of high- and low-dose gelatin to skeletal muscle revealed a bi-phasic role of gelatin in regulating skeletal muscle repair, which has translational implications for regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Depression and anxiety are common neuropsychiatric symptom of Parkinson's disease (PD), reflecting reduced quality of life in patients with PD. Silibinin (silybin), a flavonoid extracted and isolated from the fruit of Silybum marianum (L.) Gaertn, is widely used for the treatment of hepatic diseases. We report here that silibinin shows anti-depressant and anti-anxiety effects on 1-Methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced model mice with PD. All the results of open field test, elevated plus maze test, tail suspension test and forced swimming test demonstrated that silibinin administration significantly attenuated MPTP-induced depression/anxiety. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining and Nissl staining results showed that MPTP injection caused the damage of hippocampal neurons, but this was ameliorated by oral administration of silibinin. Silibinin significantly restored hippocampal levels of 5-hydroxyptramine (5-HT) and noradrenaline (NA), two important neurotransmitters for regulating mood, which decreased in MPTP-injected mice. Neuroinflammation, as reflected by the increased expressions of IL-1β, TNFα and IFN-β, was marked in the hippocampus of MPTP-treated mice, accompanying increased stimulator of interferon genes (STING) and interferon regulatory factor-3 (IRF3). Silibinin administration, however, down-regulated the levels of IL-1β, TNFα and IFN-β, as well as STING and IRF3, protecting MPTP-induced PD model mice. These findings indicate that silibinin has a potential of being further developed as a therapeutic for depression and anxiety in PD.

Abstract
Extracellular matrix (ECM) plays an important role in tissue repair, cell proliferation, and differentiation. Our previous study showed that collagen I and collagen V differently regulate the proliferation of rat pancreatic β cells (INS-1 cells) through opposite influences on the nuclear translocation of β-catenin. In this study, we investigated the β-catenin pathway in INS-1 cells on dishes coated with collagen I or V. We found that nuclear translocation of the transcription factor Yes-associated protein (YAP) was enhanced by collagen I and suppressed by collagen V, but had no effect on INS-1 cell proliferation. Morphologically, INS-1 cells on collagen V-coated dishes showed stronger cell-to-cell adhesion, while the cells on collagen I-coated dishes showed weaker cell-to-cell adhesion in comparison with the cells on non-coated dishes. E-cadherin played an inhibitory role in the proliferation of INS-1 cells cultured on collagen I or collagen V coated dishes via regulation of the nuclear translocation of β-catenin. Integrin β1 was enhanced with collagen I, while it was repressed with collagen V. The integrin β1 pathway positively regulated the cell proliferation. Inhibition of integrin β1 pathway restored the protein level of E-cadherin and inhibited the nuclear translocation of β-catenin in the cells on collagen I-coated dishes, but no effect was observed in the cells on collagen V-coated dishes. In conclusion, collagen I enhances the proliferation of INS-1 cells via the integrin β1 and E-cadherin/β-catenin signaling pathway. In INS-1 cells on collagen V-coated dishes, both integrin β1 and E-cadherin/β-catenin signal pathways are involved in the inhibition of proliferation.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Clinical heterogeneity exists in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Left ventricular (LV) structure in HFPEF is characterized by normal LV cavity size and LV hypertrophy (LVH). However some of HFPEF patients do not have LV hypertrophy, and these patients may have distinct characteristics,
Purpose
The purpose of this study is to clarify the clinical characteristics and the prognosis for HFPEF patients without LVH.
Methods
We studied 1097 patients, who were hospitalized for acute decompensated heart failure with LVEF ≥50%, and enrolled in the PURSUIT-HFpEF registry. Laboratory testing and echocardiography were examined in the compensated stage (in stable condition after treatment of acute decompensated HF). We divided these patients into 2 groups based on LV mass index (LVMI) in the compensated stage according to the American Society of Echocardiography/European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging recommendations; patients with LVH (48%) and those without LVH (52%).
Results
Patients without LVH had significantly lower levels of C-reactive protein and N-terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and higher levels of estimated glomerular filtration rate in the compensated stage than those with it (p<0.05 for all). Cox hazard regression analysis showed that absence of LVH was favorably associated with the primary composite endpoint of all-cause death, HF rehospitalization, and cerebrovascular events (hazard ratio 0.776, 95% confidence interval 0.620-to 0.970, p<0.05).
On the other hand, the frequency of atrial fibrillation (Af) in the decompensated stage was higher in patients without LVH than those with it (52.1% vs 39.3%, p<0.001). Multivariate logistic analysis showed that absence of LVH was independently associated with presence of Af in the decompensated stage (odds ratio=1.520, 95% confidence interval 1.130 to 2.050, P<0.01)
Conclusions
HFPEF patients without LVH have less organ damage and favorable prognosis. Af may play a role in the decompensation of HF in HFPEF patients without LVH.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Diagnosing heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is still challenging, and the H2FPEF- and the HFA-PEFF score were proposed as simple and reliable diagnostic tools. We recently reported that the HFA-PEFF score was significantly associated with the composite endpoint of all-cause death and heart failure readmission in patients with acute decompensated HFpEF (Sotomi. Eur J Heart Fail, in press).
Purpose
To investigate the relation whether the HFA-PEFF or H2FPEF score can evaluate functional capacity in patients with HFpEF
Methods
We calculated H2FPEF score and the second step of HFA-PEFF score among the registered patients in the PURSUIT-HFpEF (Prospective, Multicenter, Observational Study of Patients with Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction) study, which is a multicenter registration of patients hospitalized for acute decompensated HFpEF. We performed 6 minute walk (6MW) test and measured NT-proBNP before discharge. We followed the study patients for median of 360 days (IQR 237–630 days) to observe the major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE; composite of death, heart failure hospitalization and stroke).
Results
We enrolled 757 patients (age 81±9 years, male gender 45%) hospitalized for acute decompensated HFpEF for the present study. The H2FPEF score was obtained in 588 (77.7%) patients and all patients had ≥2 points. The HFA-PEFF score was obtained in 615 (81.2%) patients, though global longitudinal strain was not available. We divided these patients into 3 groups based on the HFA-PEFF score (score 2 to 4, 5, and 6) or on the H2FPEF score (score 0 to 3, 4 to 5 and 6 to 8). There were a significant difference in NT-pro BNP between 3 groups based on HFA-PEFF score (p=0.01, Table 1), and patients with score 6 had significantly higher NT-proBNP than those with score 2 to 4 (p=0.02). A significant difference was observed in 6MW distance among these groups (p=0.04, Table), and those with score 6 had significantly shorter distance than those with score 2 to 4 (p=0.04). Cox proportional hazard model selected HFA-PEFF score as a significant predictor for MACE, and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis demonstrated that classification of HFA-PEFF score significantly stratified the patients' risk for MACE. On the other hand, there was no significant difference in 6MW distance among 3 groups based on H2FPEF score (p=0.53), and H2FPEF score was not an independent predictor for MCE by the Cox model analysis. Moreover, the lowest H2PEF score group had higher NT-proBNP than other 2 groups (p=0.02)
Conclusions
The HFA-PEFF score predicted functional capacity as well as prognosis in patients hospitalized for HFpEF, while the H2PEF score did not.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) is not uncommon in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients. Left atrial (LA) substrate remodeling and corresponding mitral valve annulus dilation has been reported as the most possible cause of FMR. Percutaneous catheter ablation (CA) is an effective treatment for AF. Although significant FMR could be improved by sinus restoration, patients with mitral regurgitation were more likely to experience recurrent AF post ablation, especially those with significant mitral regurgitation. There is no information available on the efficacy of CA for persistent AF in patients with FMR.
Purpose
The purpose of this study is to investigate the predictors of FMR improvement by CA and to determine the efficacy of substrate and trigger CA for persistent AF in patients with FMR.
Methods
We prospectively studied 512 consecutive patients admitted for persistent AF ablation from the EARNEST-PVI (Prospective Multicenter Randomized Study of Effect of Extensive Ablation on Recurrence in Patients with Persistent Atrial Fibrillation Treated with Pulmonary Vein Isolation) trial.
On admission, enrolled patients were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) or PVI-plus additional ablation (linear ablation or/and CFAE ablation). Of the 512 patients, we studied 94 patients with preoperative echocardiography showing moderate or greater baseline FMR. FMR grades were classified into 5 grades (0/1/2/3/4). The FMR improvement group (FMRI(+)) was defined as a case in which the FMR was improved by two or more grades compared the preoperative echocardiography and the one year follow-up examination.
Results
Of the 94 patients, 42 were in the PVI group and 52 were in the PVI-plus additional ablation group. There were 30 cases in the FMRI(+) group and 64 cases in the FMRI(−) group. There were no significant baseline differences in age, sinus rhythm maintenance, plasma B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) level, left ventricular diastolic dimension, or left atrium dimension between the FMRI(+) and FMRI(−) groups. AF duration was significantly shorter in the FMRI(+) group than FMRI(−) groups (5.8±9.4 months vs 12.4±15.4 months, p<0.0001). In addition, significantly more additional ablation cases were observed in the FMRI(+) group than in the FMRI(−) group (73.3% vs 46.8%, p=0.016). In multivariate analyses, only additional ablation was an independent predictor of FMRI (odds ratio 0.226 95% CI 0.081–0.626; p=0.004).
Conclusions
Catheter ablation is a valid option for the treatment of AF in patients with functional MR and additional substrate and trigger ablation were the only independent predictor of FMR improvement.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Renal dysfunction is common in elderly patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and is thought to be associated with increased risk of thromboembolic and bleeding events. Once-daily low-dose (15 mg) edoxaban was superior to placebo in preventing stroke or systemic embolic events (S/SEE) without significantly increasing major bleeding events in very elderly (≥80 years) non-valvular AF (NVAF) patients in whom standard oral anticoagulant therapy at approved doses was inappropriate (ELDERCARE-AF trial). Little is known about how renal dysfunction affects the effects of low-dose edoxaban in these patients.
Purpose
We used prespecified subgroup analysis to investigate the relation between renal function (assessed by creatinine clearance, CrCl) and the efficacy and safety of edoxaban in elderly NVAF patients.
Methods
ELDERCARE-AF patients were divided into 3 subgroups according to baseline CrCl: normal renal function/mild dysfunction (CrCl >50 mL/min), moderate renal dysfunction (CrCl ≥30 to ≤50 [“30–50”] mL/min) and severe renal dysfunction (CrCl ≥15 to <30 [“15–30”] mL/min). Primary efficacy and safety endpoints were annualized incidence of S/SEE and ISTH-defined major bleeding, respectively.
Results
Of 984 patients randomized to edoxaban 15 mg or placebo (each group N=492), 681 completed the trial. The 303 discontinuations were due to withdrawal of consent (n=158), death (n=135), or other causes (n=10). Discontinuation rate was the same in the edoxaban and placebo groups. S/SEE incidence in patients with CrCl >50, 30–50 and 15–30 mL/min was 2.0%, 1.3% and 3.5%, respectively, in edoxaban, and 4.4%, 4.6% and 9.7%, respectively, in placebo. In those with CrCl 30–50 and 15–30 mL/min, it was significantly lower in edoxaban than in placebo (adjusted hazard ratio [HR], 0.30 [95% CI, 0.10–0.91], p=0.03; and 0.33 [95% CI, 0.16–0.71], p<0.01, respectively). Incidence of major bleeding in patients with CrCl >50, 30–50 and 15–30 mL/min was 1.0%, 1.8% and 6.2%, respectively, in edoxaban, and 0.9%, 1.5% and 2.4%, respectively, in placebo. Incidence of major bleeding in those with CrCl 15–30 mL/min was higher in edoxaban but not significantly (adjusted HR, 2.53 [95% CI, 0.96–6.72], p=0.062). Incidence of gastrointestinal bleeding in patients with CrCl 15–30 mL/min was 4.3% in edoxaban and 1.6% in placebo (adjusted HR, 2.61 [95% CI, 0.79–8.68], p=0.12). Incidence of all-cause death in patients with CrCl >50, 30–50 and 15–30 mL/min was 5.8%, 6.8% and 15.2%, respectively, in edoxaban, and 7.0%, 6.3% and 15.5%, respectively, in placebo (no significant intergroup differences).
Conclusions
Incidence of S/SEE, major bleeding and all-cause death increased with declining renal function in elderly NVAF patients. Edoxaban 15 mg remained superior to placebo in preventing S/SEE, even in those with moderate to severe renal dysfunction. Incidence of major bleeding in patients with severe renal dysfunction was higher (non-significantly) with edoxaban than with placebo.

Abstract
Background In Hokkaido, northern island of Japan, at least seven cases of falciparum malaria were reported by 1951. A survey conducted at that time was unsuccessful in implicating any mosquito species as the possible vector. Although active anopheline mosquito surveillance continued until the middle of the 1980s, there is very limited information on their current status and distribution in Japan. Therefore, this study is an update on the current status and distribution of anopheline mosquitoes in Hokkaido based on a 15-year entomological surveillance between 2001 and 2015. Methods A survey of mosquitoes was conducted at 22 sites in Hokkaido, Japan, from 2001 to 2015. Adult mosquitoes were collected from cowsheds, lakesides, shrubs, and habitats ranging from open grassland to coniferous forest using a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) miniature light trap enhanced with dry ice, aspirators, and sweeping nets. Larvae were collected from lakes, ponds, swamps, stagnant and flowing rivers, and paddy fields. All specimens were morphologically identified and subjected to polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based sequence analysis of the internal transcribed spacer 2 ( ITS2) region of rDNA. Phylogenetic trees were reconstructed using the neighbor-joining method with the Kimura 2-parameter model on MEGA X version 10.2.2. Results A total of 46 anopheline specimens were used for the phylogenetic analysis. During the survey, a new member of the Anopheles hyrcanus group, An. belenrae, was discovered in eastern Hokkaido in 2004. Anopheles belenrae has since then been consistently found and confirmed to inhabit only this area of Japan. Four members of the An. hyrcanus group, namely An. belenrae, An. engarensis, An. lesteri, and An. sineroides, have been found in Hokkaido. The results also suggest that An. sinensis, formerly a dominant species throughout Japan, has become a rarely found species, at least currently in Hokkaido. Conclusion The updated distribution of anopheline mosquitoes in Hokkaido, Japan, showed considerable differences from that observed in previous surveys conducted from 1969 to 1984. In particular, areas where An. sinensis was previously distributed may have been greatly reduced in Hokkaido. The phylogenetic analysis revealed a novel An. hyrcanus group member identified as An. belenrae, described in South Korea in 2005. It is interesting that An. belenrae was confirmed to inhabit only eastern Hokkaido, Japan. Graphical abstract ![]()

Abstract
Type I collagen (collagen I) is the most abundant component of the extracellular matrix (ECM) in the pancreas. We previously reported that collagen I-coated culture dishes enhanced proliferation of rat pancreatic β cell line, INS-1 cells, via up-regulation of β-catenin nuclear translocation. In this study, we further investigated the effects of collagen I on insulin production of INS-1 cells. The results indicate that insulin synthesis as well as cell proliferation is increased in the INS-1 cells cultured on the dishes coated with collagen I. Up-regulation of insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R) on the INS-1 cells cultured on the collagen-coated dishes is involved in up-regulation of cell proliferation and increase of insulin biosynthesis; however, up-regulation of insulin secretion in the INS-1 cells on collagen I-coated dishes was further enhanced by inhibition of IGF-1R. Autophagy of INS-1 cells on collagen I-coated dishes was repressed via IGF-1R upregulation, and inhibition of autophagy with 3MA further enhanced cell proliferation and insulin biosynthesis but did not affect insulin secretion. E-cadherin/β-catenin adherent junction complexes are stabilized by autophagy. That is, autophagy negatively regulates the nuclear translocation of β-catenin that leads to insulin biosynthesis and cell proliferation. In conclusion, IGF-1R/downregulation of autophagy/nuclear translocation of β-catenin is involved in collagen I-induced INS-1 cell proliferation and insulin synthesis.

Abstract
Besides motor disorder, cognitive dysfunction is also common in Parkinson's disease (PD). Essentially no causal therapy for cognitive dysfunction of PD exists at present. In this study, a 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced mouse model of PD was used to analyze the neuroprotective potential of orally administered silibinin, a proverbial hepatoprotective flavonoid derived from the herb milk thistle (Silybum marianum). Results demonstrated that silibinin administration significantly attenuated MPTP-induced cognitive impairment in behavioral tests. Nissl staining results showed that MPTP injection significantly increases the loss of neurons in the hippocampus. However, these mice were protected by oral administration of silibinin, accompanying reduction in the cell apoptosis in the hippocampus. The hippocampal aggregates of α-synuclein (α-syn) appeared in MPTP-injected mice, but were significantly decreased by silibinin treatment. MPTP injection induced oxidative stress, as evidenced by increased malondialdehyde (MDA) and decreased superoxide dismutase (SOD). The oxidative stress was alleviated by silibinin treatment. Mitochondrial disorder including the decline of mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) was another signature in the hippocampus of MPTP-treated mice, accompanying increased mitochondrial fission and decreased fusion. Silibinin administration restored these mitochondrial disorders, as expected for the protection against MPTP injury. These findings suggest that silibinin has a potential to be further developed as a therapeutic candidate for cognitive dysfunction in PD.

Abstract
Viruses belonging to the genus Quaranjavirus in the family Orthomyxoviridae are known as argasid tick-borne viruses. Some viruses in this genus or an unassigned quaranjavirus-like virus have the ability to infect humans although little is known about their pathogenicity. During the surveillance of tick-borne viruses in ixodid ticks in Ehime Prefecture, Japan, novel quaranjavirus-like sequences were detected in three pooled samples of Haemaphysalis histricis nymphs. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that the detected viruses formed a cluster with quaranjaviruses and other related viruses. Specifically, the viruses were closely related to Zambezi tick virus 1 and Uumaja virus, which are quaranjavirus-like viruses recently discovered in ixodid ticks in Africa and Europe, respectively. These findings indicate that the viruses detected in this study were probably a new member of the Quaranjavirus genus or a related group. The viruses were tentatively named Ohshima virus even though only limited sequences of their genome were available. This is the first report on the detection of a quaranjavirus-like virus in the East Asian region. Further investigations are needed to discern its infectivity and pathogenicity against humans or other animals and to determine the potential risk of an emerging tick-borne viral disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE In critical limb ischaemia (CLI), first-line therapy is revascularisation, but alternative treatment options are needed in certain cases. Maggot debridement therapy (MDT) is historically considered to be contraindicated in ischaemic ulcers. Wound care in patients with CLI is becoming increasingly diverse with the development of novel revascularisation strategies; therefore, CLI now needs to be reconsidered as an indication for MDT. METHOD We retrospectively reviewed five legs with CLI (five male, one female) treated with MDT between January 2013 and December 2017. Changes in skin perfusion pressure (SPP) around the ulcer before and after MDT were evaluated. One or two cycles of MDT were performed (eight in total). We also evaluated the proportion of necrotic tissue in the ulcer and the presence of exposed necrotic bone. The proportion of necrotic tissue in the ulcer was classified as NT 1+ (<25%), NT 2+ (25-50%), NT 3+ (50-75%) or NT 4+ (>75%). RESULTS When the proportion of necrotic tissue was >50%, with no exposed necrotic bone in the wound, an increase in SPP was observed after five (62.5%) of eight cycles of MDT. And with a proportion of necrotic tissue of <25% and/or exposed necrotic bone in the wound, a decrease in SPP was observed after three (37.5%) of eight cycles. Wound healing was accelerated in the presence of increased SPP. CONCLUSION Effective MDT with increased SPP requires an ulcerative state of necrotic tissue grade > NT 3+, with no exposed necrotic bone.
