    Notes: Ten cases of gynecologic malignancies, including three endometrial, two ovarian and four cervical carcinomas, were studied for the expression of a 185 kDa protein (ErbB-2), coded by a proto-oncogene, c-erbB-2, in primary lesions as well as in metastatic lesions. Positive immunoreactivity was observed in all primary adenocarcinomas but not from squamous cell carcinomas. Many adenocarcinoma cells in distant metastatic sites or in tertiary lymph nodes were strongly stained for ErbB-2. These metastatic cells also showed an expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA). Detection of ErbB-2 mRNA by a reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction showed that the transcription occurred exclusively in adenocarcinomas. To our knowledge, this is the first report demonstrating ErbB-2 expression in distant metastatic lesions of gynecologic cancers.

    Notes: Aim:  Ischemia-reperfusion (I-R) injury continues to be a problem for successful free tissue transfer and replantation after prolonged periods of ischemia. It has been shown that leukocytes and vascular endothelial cells release a variety of inflammatory mediators during reperfusion after ischemia. The leukocyte endothelial adhesion molecule-1 (LECAM-1) is a ligand on the endothelium for some of the adhesion receptors on leukocytes. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the blockage of leukocyte-endothelial adhesion by a monoclonal antibody (MAb) to LECAM-1 in skin flaps to prevent I-R injury in rats.Methods:  Male SD rats (225–250 g) were used. A skin flap (45 × 30 mm) supplied by the superficial epigastric A&V including the femoral vessels was isolated unilaterally. The femoral vessels were cross-clamped the epigastric vessels for 9 hours of ischemia. Animals in treated group received MAb to LECAM −1 i.v. 15 minutes prior to reperfusion; those in the control group received normal saline. Skin flap viability was assessed by tracing the outline of viable and nonviable areas. Data were collected for the following 7 days. These data were corroborated with histological evidence on comparable areas of the flap.Results:  Tracing analysis revealed average flap survival area of about 90% in treated group and about 20% in control group (p 〈 0.05). Histopathologically, few inflammatory changes could be observed in treated group, while marked damage was observed in control group.Conclusions:  From this study, we concluded that treating skin flaps with Mab to LECAM -1 was effective for I-R injury after 9 hours of warm ischemia.

    Notes: 1.The mechanisms underlying the cardiovascular action of YC-93, a new dihydropyridine vasodilator with cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase inhibitory activity, was investigated by comparing its effects wth those of papaverine in various isolated, blood-perfused heart preparations of the dog.2. In all preparations YC-93 injected into the nutrient arteries produced a dose-dependent increase in blood flow, and in this respect YC-93 was about twenty times more potent than papaverine on a weight basis.3. In sinoatrial node preparations YC-93 injected into the sinus node artery decreased sinus rate in a dose-dependent manner, and in large doses produced atrial standstill.4. In atrioventricular (a.v.) node preparations YC-93 injected into the a.v. node artery increased a.v. conduction time in a dose-dependent manner, and in large doses produced a second or third degree block of a.v. conduction. However YC-93 injected into the anterior septal artery scarcely affected a.v. conduction.5. In spontaneously contracting papillary muscle preparations YC-93 injected into the anterior septal artery failed to affect ventricular automaticity in doses which markedly decreased developed tension of papillary muscles.6. In papillary muscle preparations driven at a fixed rate YC-93 injected into the anterior septal artery produced a dose-dependent decrease in developed tension of papillary muscles.7. Unlike YC-93, papaverine decreased a.v. conduction time in a.v. node preparations and increased developed tension of papillary muscle preparations.8. The cardiac effects of YC-93 elucidated in the present experiments are characteristic of calcium-antagonistic vasodilators. The action of YC-93 as an inhibitor of cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase does not appear to play a role in its cardiac action.

    Notes: Background : Helicobacter pylori infection prevents the occurrence of the tolerance phenomenon of Histamine-2 (H2) receptor antagonists. Gastro-esophageal reflux disease develops in some cases with the restoration of acid secretion after H. pylori eradication therapy.Aim : To clarify the mechanisms of H2 receptor restoration after the eradication of H. pylori on parietal cells.Methods:  We enrolled 80 consecutive asymptomatic male patients with H. pylori infection, having chronic gastritis with or without the presence of peptic ulcers. Biopsy specimens from the greater curvatures at the mid-corpus of the stomach were obtained endoscopically from all subjects before and 12 weeks after the eradication of H. pylori. Degrees of gastric atrophy were evaluated by serum pepsinogen levels. The amounts of mRNA expression of H2 receptor were evaluated in each subject's gastric mucosa by real time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).Results : H2 receptor mRNA expression levels significantly correlated with serum pepsinogens I and II ratios. The expression level of H2 receptor mRNA was lower in subjects with hypergastrinemia. The median expression level of H2 receptor after H. pylori eradication was threefold greater than prior to treatment. In addition, its restoration became more pronounced in subjects with severe gastric atrophy. However, a comparatively low restoration of H2 receptor mRNA was found in subjects with hypergastrinemia.Conclusions : H2 receptor mRNA levels decrease with the progression of gastric atrophy induced by H. pylori infection, and are restored after H. pylori eradication. Such expression levels of H2 receptor may explain a part of the tolerance phenomenon to H2 receptor antagonists.

    Notes: Background : To date, there has not been an in-depth investigation to identify differences in the effects of bleeding prevention among different routes of administration of H2 receptor antagonists to treat gastric ulcers following endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR).Aim : To prospectively compare the frequency of bleeding following EMR between patients treated with intravenous(IV) famotidine and those with oral famotidine.Methods : Fifty-three patients with neoplastic gastric lesions (33 carcinoma and 20 adenoma) treated by EMR were included. Subjects underwent EMR with circumferential mucosal incision assisted by submucosal injection of sodium hyaluronate (EMRSH), followed by IV or oral (PO) administration of famotidine at a dosage of 40 mg/day for 2 days. Patients with odd ID numbers were assigned to IV therapy (30 cases) while even numbers were given PO therapy (23 cases). Frequencies and endoscopic findings of bleeding during the first 2 days after EMR were examined.Results : Frequency of bleeding within 2 days after EMR was 3 and 4% in IV and PO patients, respectively, showing no significant difference. No significant difference was seen in the endoscopic findings of bleeding and therapy, either, with respective IV and PO findings at 23 and 26%.Conclusions : No significant difference was observed in frequency of bleeding within 2 days after gastric EMR between IV and oral administrations of famotidine.

    Notes: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of two 1-week low-dose triple-therapy drug regimens involving antisecretory drugs for Helicobacter pylori infection, 99␣patients with H. pylori infection were treated with either lansoprazole or ranitidine used together with clarithromycin and metronidazole.〈section xml:id="abs1-2"〉〈title type="main"〉Methods:The drug combination and administration periods in the proton pump inhibitor group were lansoprazole 30 mg o.m., clarithromycin 200 mg b.d. and metronidazole 250 mg b.d., all given for 7 days (LCM group). The ranitidine group received ranitidine 150 mg b.d., clarithromycin 200 mg b.d. and metronidazole 250 mg b.d. also for 7 days (RCM group). The presence or absence of H. pylori was determined from gastric biopsy specimens taken from both the antrum and the body, by smear, culture and tissue section (Giemsa stain). Cure was defined as failure to find evidence of H. pylori infection 4 weeks after antimicrobial therapy had ended.〈section xml:id="abs1-3"〉〈title type="main"〉Results:The cure of H. pylori infection was 88% in the LCM group (44 of 50; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 79–97%) and 92% in the RCM group (45 of 49; 95% CI = 84–99%). The incidence of adverse events was 16% and 18% for the two groups, respectively.〈section xml:id="abs1-4"〉〈title type="main"〉Conclusions:No significant differences in cure rate and safety profiles were noted between the two regimens, suggesting that moderate acid inhibition using an H2-blocker is sufficient to achieve optimal H. pylori eradication.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary A pipolar stimulating electrode was chronically implanted at the mesodiencephalon in the rabbit to induce so-called central nystagmus. The nystagmus was remarkably facilitated in either darkness by blindfolding an eye ipsilateral to the stimulation site, but the nystagmus was almost never facilitated by blindfolding an eye contralateral to the stimulation site. This is a phenomenon related to photic inhibition. This phenomenon disappeared after ablation of the flocculus and paraflocculus ipsilateral to the stimulation site. The neural pathway responsible for it is considered to be by way of the flocculus.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Einführen einer bipolaren Reizelektrode in das Mesencephalon des Kaninchens zur Auslösung des zentralen Nystagmus. Der Nystagmus war deutlich verstärkt in Dunkelheit oder bei Verschluß des Auges auf der Reizseite, aber nicht verstärkt bei Verschluß des Auges auf der Gegenseite des Reizes. Diese Erscheinung ist auf die Verminderung der Lichteinwirkung zurückzuführen und verschwindet nach Ablatio des Flocculus und des Paraflocculus auf der Reizseite.

    Notes: Abstract  We report on an HTLV-I carrier showing clonal proliferation of γδ-T lymphocytes associated with chronic neutropenia and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). A 75-year-old Japanese woman had a 20-year history of RA and was found to have neutropenia and lymphocytosis by routine examinations. Her white cell count was 5,800/μl with 89% lymphocytes. The proliferating γδ-lymphocytes did not show the typical morphology of large granular lymphocytes (LGL) and were positive for CD3, TCRδ1, and HLA-DR but negative for CD4, CD8, and δTCS1. Clonally rearranged TCRγ-chain (Jγ) and TCRβ-chain (Cβ1) genes were detected by Southern blot analysis. Clonality of these proliferating γδ-T cells was confirmed by CDR3 size analysis for the TCRδ-chain. Anti-HTLV-I antibody was positive and the pX region of HTLV-I proviral DNA was detected by PCR analysis, but clonal integration of HTLV-I proviral DNA was not detected by Southern blotting analysis. The patient's clinical course has been stable, except for infrequent infectious episodes. The association of HTLV-I/II infection with T-LGL leukemia has been reported by several groups, although most cases exhibit TCRαβ+ type T cells. Analysis of the junctional sequence of TCR on T-LGL leukemia cells may clarify the role of HTLV-I/II infection in clonal T-cell proliferation.
