    Notes: We report in vivo laser computed tomographic images of the proximal interphalangeal joint region of a healthy human volunteer's index finger. The laser computed tomographic (CT) images were obtained with a highly sensitive coherent detection imaging method that is based on the optical heterodyne detection method. These laser CT images are compared at the wavelengths of 715 nm and 1.064 μm and with images obtained by conventional imaging methods such as x-ray CT and magnetic resonance imaging. Internal structures of the proximal interphalangeal joint region could be clearly identified in the laser CT images. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Interleukin-1α produced in human gingival fibroblasts induces several activities related to the progression of periodontitis by direct contact (1996)

    Notes: Previous observations suggest that interleukin-1 (IL-1) may play an important role in the progression of periodontitis. In the present study, we investigated whether a cell-associated IL-1α (CAIL-lα) produced in human gingival fibroblasts (HGF) induces biological activities related to the progression of periodontitis. HGF were treated with recombinant human IL-1β (rhIL-1β) for 12 h. After that, the cell layers of HGF were washed 3 times with fresh medium and were then fixed with 1% paraformaldehyde. The fixed cell layers of HGF were used for assays for bone resorbing activity, prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) production and collagenase activity. Fixed cell layers of HGF treated with rhIL-1β enhanced not only calcium release from BALB/c mouse calvaria but also PGE2 production and collagenase activity in HGF and human periodontal ligament fibroblasts (HPLF) cultured on the fixed cell layers. These activities were neutralized by treatment with monoclonal mouse anti-human IL-1α antibody, but monoclonal mouse antihuman IL-1β antibody showed no effects on these activities. The induction of these activities by fixed cell layers of HGF required direct contact between the fixed cell layers and the calvaria, HGF, or HPLF. These results suggest that CAIL-1α produced in HGF treated with rhIL-1β induces bone resorbing activity, PGE2 production and collagenase activity in the target cells by direct contact; CAIL-lα may play an important role in the progression of periodontitis.

    Notes: Abstract A case of adult-onset adrenoleukodystrophy involving predominantly the cerebellum and brain stem is described. The patient was a 30-year-old man with no family history of adrenoleukodystrophy. His neurological symptoms were progessive cerebellar ataxia and spastic paraparesis. CT showed atrophy of the cerebellum and brain stem. MRI disclosed lesions, enhancing partially with gadolinium, in the dentate nuclei and the pyramidal tracts from the internal capsule to the brain stem. The biochemical findings were compatible with typical adrenoleukodystrophy, but the distribution of the lesions on MRI was distinctly different. After steroid administration, the patient's symptoms improved slightly and contrast enhancement of the lesions was markedly reduced.

    2-Carboxyethylgermanium sesquioxide, a synthetic organogermanium compound, as an inducer of contrasuppressor T cells (1996)

    Notes: Abstract 2-Carboxyethylgermanium sesquioxide (Ge-132), a synthesized organogermanium compound with immunomodulaing activities, was shown to be an inducer of anti-suppressor T cells in normal mice. The suppressor cell activity of T6S cells, a clone of burn-induced CD8+ IL-4-producing suppressor T cells, was clearly inhibited when a mixed lymphocyte-tumor cell reaction of the clone was conducted with splenic mononuclear cells from mice treated orally with a 100 mg/kg dose of Ge-132. The activity of anti-suppressor cells was demonstrated in spleens of mice 2 days after treatment with Ge-132 and reached its peak on day 3. The anti-suppressor cells induced by the compound were of a contrasuppressor T cell-linage, because they were characterized as CD4+ CD28+ TCRα/β+ Vicia villosa lectin-adherent T cells. These cells produced IFN-γ but did not produce IL-2, IL-4, IL-6 or IL-10 in their culture fluids. CD4+ anti-suppressor T cells induced by Ge-132 may be different from other subsets of CD4+ T cells because Th1 and Th2 cells generated in our laboratory did not adhere toVicia villosa lectin-coated petri dishes, and each produced specific cytokines. Th1 cells produced IFN-γ and IL-2 while Th2 cells produce IL-4 and IL-10 in vitro. These results suggest that Ge-132 may be useful as an inducer of contrasuppressor T cells in immunocompromised individuals bearing suppressor T cells. To eliminate suppressor T cells from immunocompromised hosts may result in improved resistance from various opportunistic infections.

    Notes: Summary We report a case of diffuse leptomeningeal gliomatosis which spread from the cervical to the sacral spine. A 60-year-old man was admitted with visual disturbance due to papilledema. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed holocord leptomeningeal gliomatosis without a definite intraparenchymal lesion, and the patient's neurological examination was unremarkable except for papilledema. Intracranial hypertension secondary to spinal tumor is well known but unusual, and the mechanism is still unclear. In our case, an elevated protein concentration of cerebrospinal fluid is suggested as the cause of intracranial hypertension.

    Hyperinduction of nitrile hydratase acting on indole-3-acetonitrile in Agrobacterium tumefaciens (1996)

    Notes: Abstract  We investigated the optimum conditions for the formation of nitrile hydratase (NHase), which acts on indole-3-acetonitrile, in Agrobacterium tumefaciens. Good inducers for enzyme formation have been found to be roughly classified into three representative types of amides such as pivalamide, crotonamide and ɛ-caprolactam. When the strain was cultivated in the optimum culture medium containing ɛ-caprolactam as an inducer, in particular, the specific activity of NHase in the culture was 13 000 times higher than that without addition of amides, nitriles or acids. In this case, NHase formed accounted for 12% of the total cellular soluble protein. The purified NHase did not act on ɛ-caprolactam, and ɛ-caprolactam was not degraded during the cultivation by the strain, suggesting that ɛ-caprolactam seems to keep driving the NHase induction mechanism.

    Notes: Abstract. A patient who sustained a colonic perforation during therapeutic colonoscopy was treated successfully by laparoscopic repair. Laparoscopy was performed 5 h after polypectomy. Fecal matter was not identified in the peritoneal cavity. Local peritonitis was mild. The laceration was oversewn with five sutures using the extracorporeal endoscopic knot technique. The appendix epiploica was then anchored over the lesion. The postoperative recovery was rapid and uneventful. Laparoscopic surgery may become a useful tool for the safe, effective, and minimally invasive management of iatrogenic colonic perforation.

    Contralateral turning elicited by unilateral stimulation of dopamine D2 and D1 receptors in the nucleus accumbens of rats is due to stimulation of these receptors in the shell, but not the core, of this nucleus (1996)

    Notes: Abstract The goal of this study was to determine whether dopamine D2 and/or D1 receptors in the shell and the core of the nucleus accumbens of rats have a differential role in turning behaviour. Unilateral injection of a mixture of the dopamine D2 receptor agonist quinpirole (10 µg) and the dopamine D1 receptor agonist 1-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-3-benzazepine-7, 8-diol (SKF 38393, 5 µg) into the shell of the nucleus accumbens produced contralateral turning, when doses which per se were ineffective were injected. This effect was far greater than that found after similar injections into the core of the nucleus accumbens. The effect elicited from the shell was significantly attenuated by prior administration of either the dopamine D2 receptor antagonistl-sulpiride (25 ng/0.5 µl) or the dopamine D1 receptor antagonist (8-chloro-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-3-methyl-5-phenyl-1H-3-benzazepine-7-ol (SCH 23390, 0.5 µg/0.5 µl) into the same region. These data together with the fact thatl-sulpiride is known to be a valid tool to differentiate the involvement of distinct regions within the shell underlie the conclusion that dopamine D2 and D1 receptors in the shell, but not the core, of the nucleus accumbens play a critical role in the contralateral turning induced by unilateral injection of dopamine receptor agonists into this nucleus. The results are discussed in view of the known output pathways of the shell.
