Abstract
To test bound-state quantum electrodynamics (BSQED) in the strong-field regime, we have performed high precision x-ray spectroscopy of the 5g-4f and 5f- 4d transitions (BSQED contribution of 2.4 and 5.2 eV, respectively) of muonic neon atoms in the low-pressure gas phase without bound electrons. Muonic atoms have been recently proposed as an alternative to few-electron high-Z ions for BSQED tests by focusing on circular Rydberg states where nuclear contributions are negligibly small. We determined the 5g_{9/2}- 4f_{7/2} transition energy to be 6297.08±0.04(stat)±0.13(syst) eV using superconducting transition-edge sensor microcalorimeters (5.2-5.5 eV FWHM resolution), which agrees well with the most advanced BSQED theoretical prediction of 6297.26 eV.

Abstract
We observed electronic K x rays emitted from muonic iron atoms using superconducting transition-edge sensor microcalorimeters. The energy resolution of 5.2 eV in FWHM allowed us to observe the asymmetric broad profile of the electronic characteristic Kα and Kβ x rays together with the hypersatellite K^{h}α x rays around 6 keV. This signature reflects the time-dependent screening of the nuclear charge by the negative muon and the L-shell electrons, accompanied by electron side feeding. Assisted by a simulation, these data clearly reveal the electronic K- and L-shell hole production and their temporal evolution on the 10-20 fs scale during the muon cascade process.

Abstract
The antimicrobial activity of weakly acidified chlorous acid water (WACAW) against Staphylococcus aureus, non-pathogenic Escherichia coli, enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC O157:H7), Candida albicans, and spore-forming Bacillus and Paenibacillus species was evaluated in vitro. The antiviral activity was also examined using feline calicivirus (FCV). Diluted WACAW (>100 ppm) effectively reduced the number of non-spore-forming bacteria (>4 log10 CFU reductions) within 5 min. Treatment with this sanitizer at 400 ppm for 30 min achieved>5 log10 CFU reductions in spore-forming Bacillus and Paenibacillus species while an equivalent concentration of sodium hypochlorite (NaClO) resulted in only a 0.98 and 2.72 log10 CFU reduction, respectively. The effect of this sanitizer against FCV was equivalent to that of NaClO. Immersion in WACAW (400 ppm) achieved >4 and 2.26 log10 CFU reductions in Campylobacter jejuni and EHEC, respectively, on artificially contaminated broiler carcass pieces. Finally, theantimicrobial activity of this sanitizer was shown to be maintained for at least 28 d when in contact with nonwoven fabric (100% cotton). This study showed that pH control of chlorous acid is expected to modify its antimicrobial activity and stability. WACAW is expected to have applications in various settings such as the food processing and healthcare industries.

Abstract
SummaryTechnetium(IV) oxide colloids were radiolytically formed by γ irradiation of aqueous solutions of pertechnetate (TcO4−). Pertechnetate solutions (5.5×10−5-2.9×10−4M) were irradiated with bremsstrahlung from an electron linear accelerator at 40 and 17 °C. The color of irradiated solutions gradually changed to brownish black, suggesting the formation of Tc(IV) oxide colloids (TcO2·nH2O). A transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis showed that the size of colloids distributed around 30 to 130 nm in diameter. The characteristic X-rays from technetium and oxygen were simultaneously detected from colloid particles at the TEM measurements. Round-shaped colloids were produced by irradiation at 40 °C, whereas irregular-shaped colloid particles composed of tiny particles (2 nm in diameter) were produced at 17 °C. The concentration of TcO4−in the target solution gradually decreased with an increase of the absorbed dose, corresponding to an increase of the colloid yield. The yield of colloids sharply increased in the solution deaerated by Ar bubbling before irradiation, but strongly suppressed in the solution saturated with oxygen (O2) or nitrous oxide (N2O) gas. The fact suggests that hydrated electrons play an important role in the course of the reduction of TcO4−and that Tc(IV) oxide colloids were formedviasuccessive disproportionation reactions of Tc(VI) and Tc(V). The formation mechanisms of Tc(IV) oxide colloids are discussed.

Abstract
Myotonic Dystrophy (DM), the most common form of adult-onset muscular dystrophy, comprises at least 2 subtypes, DM1 and DM2. DM1 is caused by the expansion of a CTG repeat located in the 3' untranslated region of the DM protein kinase (DMPK) gene. Recently, the expansion of a CCTG tetranucleotide repeat located in the first intron of the ZNF9 gene was identified as the mutation responsible for DM2. Since both DM1 and DM2 are caused by the expansion of repetitive sequences, some common factors that interact with these sequences might be involved in the pathogenesis of DM. MBNL1 is a candidate for such factors and is thought to be sequestered by the expanded forms of DM transcripts.

Abstract
Myotonic dystrophy (DM) is the most common form of adult onset muscular dystrophy. Patients have a large CTG repeat expansion in the 3' untranslated region of the DMPK gene, which encodes DM protein kinase. RNA trans-dominant models, which hypothesize that the expanded CUG trinucleotide repeat on DMPK mRNA sequesters a factor or disrupts the RNA metabolism of the DMPK mRNA itself and other mRNAs in a trans dominant manner, have been proposed. A candidate for the sequestered factor, termed CUG-binding protein (CUG-BP), exists in several alternatively spliced isoforms. We found a human isoform with a twelve base insertion (deduced amino acids Leu-Tyr-Leu-Gln) and an isoform with a three base insertion (deduced amino acid Ala) insertion. In order to elucidate the effects of CUG-BP on DMPK expression, we introduced CUG-BP and DMPK cDNA transiently into COS-7 cells. Cotransfection of CUG-BP did not significantly affect the expression of either wild type or mutant DMPK at the mRNA level. On the other hand, cotransfection of CUG-BP significantly affected the expression of both the wild type and mutant DMPKs at the protein level. This reduction was remarkable when the mutant DMPK construct was used.

Abstract
Crystals of the title compound, samarium barium copper oxide, were prepared by a modified top-seeded solution-growth method. The crystals thus prepared showed no superconductivity down to 4.2 K. A careful examination showed that the structure closely resembles that of tetragonal YBCO, and there is no atom mixing at the Ba or other sites, within experimental accuracy. A bond-valence-sum calculation at the Ba site also indicated the absence of Sm. Each site is fully occupied by a single atom, except for the oxygen site in the basal plane of the CuO(6) octahedron. The occupancy of this oxygen site is significantly reduced [0.13 (2)], as is commonly observed in the 123 system. The atomic displacement parameters of the atoms in the CuO(2) plane, as well as of the Sm atom, are very small, indicating that two equivalent CuO(2) planes tightly sandwich the Sm atom.

Abstract
Inactivated influenza vaccine has been widely used; however, its effectiveness is not always perfect. To create a much better vaccine, live vaccines have been extensively investigated. Among several candidate live vaccines, cold-adapted(Ca) vaccine is the only promising candidate. According to clinical studies recently conducted in the U.S., Ca vaccine was proven to be highly effective against laboratory confirmed influenza, both in adults and children. Furthermore, Ca vaccines for the H5N1 pandemic strains were generated and their attenuation and efficacy were confirmed in experimental animals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study was aimed at developing an optimal method for immobilizing isolated hepatocytes in cellulose multiporous microcarriers (MCs) and evaluating the metabolic activity of MC-immobilized hepatocytes. MATERIALS AND METHODS Hepatocytes isolated from the livers of male Wistar rats were immobilized in collagen-coated MCs by intermittent stirring (30 rpm for 2 min per 15 min) for 180 min or accumulation methods. The accumulation method was performed by pouring aliquots of hepatocyte suspension (8 x 10(5)) and MC suspension (1 mg) in turn onto a nylon mesh (pore size: 100 micron). The metabolic activity of MC-immobilized hepatocytes in floating culture and in a newly developed bioreactor was evaluated. The metabolic activity of MC-immobilized hepatocytes in the bioreactor was also evaluated in in vitro perfusion of a hollow-fiber-based hybrid artificial liver support system. RESULTS The accumulation method immobilized 20 times more hepatocytes in collagen-coated MCs than the intermittent stirring method (P < 0.01). Morphological observation of hepatocyte-immobilized MCs revealed that many hepatocytes were immobilized deep within the MCs maintaining a spherical shape and normal microvilli on their surface. MC-immobilized hepatocytes in floating culture revealed similar NH3 metabolism and glucose synthesis to monolayer-cultured hepatocytes, and this metabolic activity was maintained during 9h of floating culture. MC-immobilized hepatocytes in a bioreactor also showed similar NH3 metabolism to monolayer-cultured hepatocytes. The NH3 metabolism of MC-immobilized hepatocytes in in vitro perfusion of a hybrid artificial liver support system was 241.5 microg/h/mg protein/m2 membrane surface. CONCLUSIONS The results of this study indicate that the accumulation method was optimal for immobilizing isolated rat hepatocytes in MCs and that MC-immobilized hepatocytes maintained their metabolic activity for a long period.

Abstract
As live influenza vaccine, cold-adapted influenza virus vaccines (ca vaccine) have been extensively investigated in both the U.S and Russia. In Russia it has been licensed since 1988 and it is going to be licensed in the U.S. within a year or two. In general, the ca vaccine is more effective in seronegative population than the inactivated vaccine. In seropositive adult population, both are equally effective. In the elderly, inactivated vaccine is better than the live vaccine. In Japan, clinical trials were also conducted with the American ca vaccines. Although the efficacy was confirmed in limited locations, the vaccine could not be evaluated from the point of license approval because big epidemic did not occur during the studies.

Abstract
Fetal hepatocytes were harvested at day 20 of gestation from spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and then transplanted into recipient adult SHR spleens. Morphological examination of the recipient spleens revealed that, after 4 and 10 wk, large masses of hepatocytes were present in the red pulp with apparent cord-like structures. Larger batches of hepatocytes were observed in the spleens at 10 wk after than at 4 wk after transplantation. Of major significance was the fact that hepatocyte transplanted spleens were able to express several families of cytochrome P450 (cyto P450) proteins 2-10 wk after transplantation. Immunochemical determinations revealed that cytos P450 IA1, P450 IIB1, P450 p, P450 HLp, and P450 LA omega could be detected without any prior induction. All were intensely expressed 6 wk after transplantation; however, P450 IA1 and P450 IIB1 did not appear to be expressed by 2 wk after transplantation. Although cytos P450 p and P450 HLp did not appear to be expressed by 10 wk after transplantation, they were induced with dexamethasone at that time. Cyto P450 LA omega and peroxisomal acyl CoA oxidase were expressed 6 wk after transplantation in a 70% hepatectomized host. These results demonstrate that fetal hepatocytes can be successfully transplanted into the spleens of recipients and that the fetal hepatocytes appear to grow and develop cyto P450 metabolizing systems.

Abstract
We have investigated the availability of multiporous microcarriers (MCs) for immobilizing isolated rat hepatocytes, but the pore size of MCs was too small (35 microns) for hepatocyte immobilization. In this study, we immobilized isolated rat hepatocytes on MCs with larger pores, and evaluated their metabolic activity. Isolated hepatocytes were immobilized on MCs precoated with collagen by the intermittent stirring method and by aspiration, and the cell-protein content per 100 mg MCs was determined for comparison of these methods. Metabolic activity was evaluated by analyzing NH3 metabolism, urea nitrogen synthesis and glucose synthesis. The aspiration method immobilized significantly more of hepatocytes on MCs than the intermittent stirring method (p < 0.05). A stationary culture of hepatocytes immobilized on MCs showed a similar NH3 metabolism to monolayer cultured hepatocytes, and hepatocytes immobilized on MCs in a floating culture showed significantly higher NH3 metabolism than those in a stationary culture (p < 0.01). However, monolayer cultured hepatocytes showed higher glucose synthesis than hepatocytes immobilized on MCs in a stationary culture (p < 0.01). In conclusion, hepatocytes immobilized on MCs proved to be useful as a bioreactor in a hybrid artificial liver.

Abstract
We attempted multilocational hepatocyte transplantation (HCTx) including hepatocyte-bearing polyurethane foam (PUF) to treat congenitally ascorbic acid (AsA) biosynthetic enzyme-deficient (ODS-od/od) rats. Hepatocytes isolated from the liver of congeneic rats were transplanted into the portal vein (Pv), spleen (Sp), omentum (Om), and mesentery (Ms). Hepatocyte-bearing PUF was transplanted into the Om and Ms. Experimental groups were divided into four groups (group I; Pv + Sp, group II; Pv + Sp + Om + Ms, group III; Pv + Sp + hepatocyte-bearing PUF, group IV; control). The average serum AsA level of the surviving rats in group II and III was significantly higher than that in group I 3 mo after HCTx. Histological examination showed small foci of surviving hepatocytes in the Om and Ms tissues and in the connective tissue in the PUF. ODS-od/od rats survived for a long time by multilocational HCTx.

Abstract
An amplification system for nearly full length cDNA coding the eight influenza virus segments of A type (H1N1, H2N2, H3N2) and B type influenza viruses is described. Each of the segments of PB1, PB2, PA, NP, M, and NS can be amplified using one 5' primer and one 3' primer for A-type influenza viruses. The RT-PCR amplification system was applied to define the gene composition of three subtype cold-recombinant, live attenuated influenza viruses. Each segment of the attenuated influenza virus could be identified as deriving from segments of the Ca donor or wild virus by comparing the representative restriction enzyme digestion patterns of the three PCR products obtained from the Ca donor, the cold-live attenuated influenza viruses and the wild virus. This RT-PCR method, using RT-PCR followed by digestion of PCR products with restriction enzymes, was very beneficial for analyzing the genome of reassortant influenza viruses.

Abstract
A simple and effective method for the detection of antibodies to herpes simplex virus (HSV), human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) and varicella-zoster virus (VZV), has been established using the passive hemagglutination assay (PHA) in combination with viral specific glycoproteins. The results obtained with the PHA were compared with those from neutralization (NT) and complement fixation (CF) tests. The PHA test for each of the herpes viruses appears to compare favorably with the other assays tested. The specificity and sensitivity of HSV PHA to NT were 100%, whereas the specificity and sensitivity of HSV CF test to NT were 98% and 100%, respectively. For HCMV, the specificity and sensitivity of PHA to NT and PHA to CF were 100%. Similarly, the specificity and sensitivity of VZV PHA to NT were 100%. Because of the low sensitivity of the VZV CF, the sensitivity of CF to NT was 83%. Furthermore, the range of antibody titers and their absolute levels obtained in the PHAs were significantly greater than those in the NT and CF tests.

Abstract
A passive haemagglutination (PHA) assay for the detection of varicella-zoster virus (VZV) antibody was prepared with purified viral glycoproteins. Serum samples from vaccinees with live attenuated varicella vaccine, and of zoster patients, were measured for antibody titres against VZV with PHA, complement fixation (CF) and immune adherence haemagglutination (IAHA) assays, and the results compared. Antibody development could be detected as early as 3 weeks after vaccination, by both PHA and IAHA tests, but not with the CF test. Significant rises in VZV antibody in zoster patients were detected by both PHA and CF tests several days after onset. No cross-reaction was observed using HSV PHA among the vaccinees and the zoster patients. The VZV PHA assay could be used as a monitor of vaccination and a tool for differential diagnosis.

Abstract
Mice, guinea pigs, and rhesus monkeys were immunized with immunoaffinity-purified native glycoprotein D (gD) derived from herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV1). The native glycoprotein has evoked significant in vivo responses even at low doses. Thus, mice immunized with doses as low as 1 microgram were significantly protected from the morbidity and mortality of lethal HSV2 challenge and from establishment of latent HSV2 infection. Protection was dose-related and correlated with prechallenge serum neutralizing antibody titres to HSV. Similarly, immunized guinea-pigs demonstrated significant reductions in the frequency, severity and duration of genital lesions induced by HSV2 vaginal challenge. In long term immunogenicity studies, immunized rhesus monkeys exhibited significant serum neutralizing antibody responses to both HSV1 and HSV2. In vitro stimulation of monkey peripheral blood leucocytes with purified gD resulted in a significant cellular proliferative response. The results obtained in these animal models with a gD subunit vaccine provide an appropriate foundation for the initiation of human studies.

Abstract
The clinical features and the molecular epidemiology of primary herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) infection among children younger than 3 years of age were investigated in day-care nursery. Serial sera were assayed for anti-HSV-1 glycoprotein B antibody by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Serologic examinations revealed 55 cases of primary HSV infection during the observation period. Fifty-one of them (93%) had typical herpetic gingivostomatitis, showing a high rate of clinically overt infection. Four outbreaks of herpetic gingivostomatitis were observed during the observation period. Forty-one children were infected with HSV-1 in the outbreaks. The rates of infection in the susceptible children were 81%, 73%, 78%, and 100%, respectively, in the four outbreaks. Restriction endonuclease analysis of DNA of isolated HSV revealed that only one strain of HSV-1 had been transmitted among children for a long period.

Sera from 158 individuals in Yanji, Jilin, China, were tested for antibodies to herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) by the passive hemagglutination method. Age-specific incidence rates for antibodies to HSV-1 were calculated. For sera from persons in the age group 10 years or less, the positive rate was 54% but in the age group higher than 10 years, it was more than 91% (P less than 0.01). In the part of China surveyed, primary HSV-1 infection occurred in early generation before about age 10. In children, the positive rate in the Han race was significantly higher than that in the Korean race (P less than 0.05).

Abstract
A protein related to glycoprotein B of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) produced in yeast (ygB-1) was purified with an immunoadsorbent. The molecular weight of the purified ygB-1 as determined by sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was 96,000. Mice injected twice with ygB-1 adsorbed to alum developed ELISA antibody to ygB-1, neutralizing antibody to HSV-1 and a lymphoproliferative response to ygB-1 and HSV-1. The immunized mice were protected against intraperitoneal and corneal challenge with HSV-1. Latent infection in the trigeminal ganglia after corneal challenge was also inhibited by immunization with ygB-1. Guinea-pigs pigs immunized with ygB-1 adsorbed to alum also developed ELISA antibody to to ygB-1 and neutralizing antibody to both types of HSV. After the second dose, strong lymphoproliferative responses were seen upon stimulation with HSV-2. Animals were protected against intravaginal challenge with HSV type 2.

Abstract
The effect of monoclonal antibody (MCA) to glycoprotein gB of herpes simplex virus (HSV) was studied in athymic nude mice inoculated with HSV intracutaneously in the midflank. HS1, the MCA used in the study, had a high neutralizing titer (1:2048) and had antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity. HS1 was injected intraperitoneally at various intervals after HSV infection. HS1 injected 3 h after infection inhibited the development of skin lesions and most mice survived. Administration of HS1 at the time the local skin erosions appeared at the inoculated site (4-7 days after infection) was also effective, and in four of eight mice skin lesions completely healed. Furthermore, in three of four mice that survived, latent infections in the ganglia were also prevented as evidenced by the failure to detect HSV by co-cultivation with Vero cells. Administration of HS1 after the development of zosteriform skin lesions (5-9 days after infection) reduced virus in the ganglia and prolonged the survival time, though the disease was not completely arrested and all the mice died eventually.

Abstract
To investigate the protective ability of monoclonal antibodies (MCAs) to viral glycoprotein in herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection, athymic nude mice were inoculated intracutaneously with HSV type-1 (HSV-1) in the midflank. Three hours after inoculation, one group of mice was passively immunized with one of a series of MCAs to glycoprotein gB of HSV-1, and a control group of mice was given phosphate buffered saline alone. The control mice died within 16 days after infection, whereas the mice passively immunized with any of the MCA showed suppressed development of skin lesions. Three of six mice given MCA failed to develop any visible lesions and no HSV could be isolated from the lumbar dorsal root ganglia of these mice 60 days after the challenge. BALB/c mice were also protected from infection with HSV type 2 by passive immunization with MCA to HSV-1 gB.

Abstract
Dissemination of herpes simplex virus (HSV) in nude mice after intracutaneous inoculation in the midflank, and the effect of passively administered antibody on the course of infection were investigated. In untreated infected mice the skin lesions developed rapidly and HSV could first be recovered from the homogenate of the dorsal root ganglia on day 3 after infection, from the spinal cord on day 7 and from the brain on day 11. HSV could not be recovered from the blood, spleen or liver. In mice passively immunized with human gamma globulin, development of the skin lesions was rather slow and HSV could not be recovered from the homogenate of the dorsal root ganglia until day 16. From the results of explant culture of the ganglia, HSV was found to have reached the ganglia as early as 48 h after infection, even in mice administered human gamma globulin. The protective action of antibody seems to originate from the inhibition of virus growth not only at the inoculation site but also in the dorsal root ganglia.

Abstract
Experiments were performed to investigate the resistance of the host due to antibody-mediated mechanisms to herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection. Transfer of hyperimmune anti-HSV mouse serum inhibited the development of skin lesions and prolonged the survival of lethally HSV-infected nude mice. Relatively high concentrations of antibody were required to achieve this protection. Antisera prepared in heterologous animals were also effective, while administration of anti-cowpox virus serum or interferon provided no protection. This type of protection is therefore due to specific antibody and cannot be attributed to interferon. In order to delineate the requirement for antibody in antibody-mediated protection, human gamma globulin preparations were transferred to lethally HSV-infected nude mice. Transfer of intact human gamma globulin (GG) was effective in controlling infection. S-sulfonation of GG did not diminish the protective ability. However, purified F(ab')2 did not have any protective action even when it was administered frequently to maintain serum neutralizing antibody titer. GG was effective in C5-deficient mice lethally infected with HSV. These results indicate that in vivo antibody-mediated protection to HSV infection requires the Fc region of the intact IgG molecule and suggest that antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity may be operative in vivo.

Abstract
The findings in fifty-nine patients with congenital constriction band syndrome and in experiments in which limb malformations resembling those of the human constriction band syndrome were successfully reproduced in rat fetuses by amniocentesis indicated that these malformations arise from excessive contraction of the uterine muscle during pregnancy, with resulting hemorrhages from the marginal blood sinuses of the digital rays. Such malformations in humans may arise during the fifth and sixth weeks counted from ovulation. It therefore was concluded that this syndrome is not hereditary but is produced by prenatal environmental factors.
