    Notes: Intein homing endonucleases are proteins spliced out from a precursor protein and site-specific enzymes that make double-strand breaks in inteinless alleles. Crystals of intein homing endonuclease II from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus kodakaraensis strain KOD1 (PI-PkoII) have been grown at room temperature using ammonium sulfate as a precipitant. The diffraction pattern of the crystal extends to 3.0 Å resolution at room temperature upon exposure to synchrotron X-rays at KEK-PF, Japan. The crystals have symmetry consistent with space group C2221, with unit-cell parameters a = 107.6, b = 150.5, c = 146.8 Å. A full set of X-ray diffraction data were collected to 3.0 Å Bragg spacing from a native crystal with an overall Rmerge of 4.8% and a completeness of 96.6%.

    Notes: Abstract To determine the incidence of nausea and vomiting and the antiemetic effect of ondansetron hydrochloride (OND) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma treated with arterial chemo-embolization, we studied 59 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who were treated with transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) or lipiodolized transcatheter arterial infusion (L-TAI). We investigated the incidence of nausea and vomiting and the amount of food intake when TAE or L-TAI was performed. All patients who experienced nausea and vomiting received OND administered prophylactically at the time of the next TAE or L-TAI to evaluate the antiemetic effect of the drug. Cumulative rates of nausea and vomiting during the week following arterial chemo-embolization were 44.8% and 27.6%, respectively. There was a tendence for the incidence to be higher in patients treated with the anticancer agent zinostatin stimalamer (SMANCS) than in those treated with epirubicin hydrochloride (EPI). Regarding food intake, 53.1% of the patients stated that they ate "half or more than half" of the food provided on the day of arterial chemo-embolization. The rate improved as time went on. In 5 patients who experienced nausea and vomiting at the time of arterial chemo-embolization, nausea and vomiting were inhibited satisfactorily by OND. When arterial chemo-embolization was performed, antiemetic treatment for approximately 3 days was necessary to improve patients' quality of life (QOL) to an acceptable level, and OND was found to be effective for the purpose in our 5 patients who had experienced nausea and/or vomiting at the previous treatment.

    Notes: Abstract Hepatic polyamines were assayed in 15 patients with liver diseases, 5 with fulminant hepatitis (FH); 3 with exacerbated liver cirrhosis (ELC); and 7 with liver cirrhosis (LC). Hepatic putrescine and N1-acetylspermidine, as percentages of total polyamines, were elevated and spermine was decreased in all 15 patients. The increase in hepatic N1-acetylspermidine levels appeared to be greater in patients with FH and ELC than in those with LC. These results suggest that the production of N1-acetylspermidine in human liver is closely associated with the induction of spermidine/spermine N1-acetyltransferase activity in liver diseases.
