    Notizen: γ-Hexachlorocyclohexane (γ-HCH; also called BHC or lindane) is one of the highly chlorinated pesticides which can cause serious environmental problems. Sphingomonas paucimobilis UT26 degrades γ-HCH under aerobic conditions. The unique degradation pathway of γ-HCH in UT26 is revealed. In the upstream pathway, γ-HCH is transformed to 2,5-dichlorohydroquinone (2,5-DCHQ) by two different dehalogenases (LinA and LinB) and one dehydrogenase (LinC) which are expressed constitutively. In the downstream pathway, 2,5-DCHQ is reductively dehalogenated, and then ring-cleaved by enzymes (LinD and LinE, respectively) whose expressions are regulated. We have cloned and sequenced five structural genes (linA, linB, linC, linD, and linE) directly involved in this degradation pathway. The linD and linE genes form an operon, and its expression is positively regulated by the LysR-type transcriptional regulator (LinR). The genes linA, linB, and linC are constitutively expressed, and are present separately from each other in the UT26 genome. Cell fractionation analysis, Western blotting, and immuno electron microscopy revealed that LinA and LinB are localized in the periplasmic space of UT26.

    Notizen: Abstract: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of alendronate, a double-masked, active (alfacalcidol) controlled comparative study for 48 weeks was carried out in a total of 210 Japanese patients with osteoporosis. The doses of alendronate and alfacalcidol were 5 mg/day and 1 μg/day, respectively. The lumbar bone mineral density (LBMD) values observed at 12, 24, 36 and 48 weeks after the initiation of alendronate treatment were 3.53 ± 0.53%, 5.37 ± 0.62%, 5.87 ± 0.74% and 6.21 ± 0.59% (mean ± SE), respectively, higher than the baseline value. Corresponding values in the alfacalcidol group were 1.50 ± 0.43%, 0.69 ± 0.63%, 1.12 ± 0.60% and 1.36 ± 0.63%, respectively. There was a significant difference between the two groups at each time point (p〈0.05 or p〈0.001). The bone turnover markers were depressed during treatment in the alendronate group: −32.2% for alkaline phosphatase, −53.7% for N-terminal osteocalcin and −45.0% for urinary deoxypyridinoline compared with the corresponding baseline values. On the contrary, no notable changes in these parameters were observed in the alfacalcidol group. Treatment with alendronate caused a transient decrease in serum calcium concentrations associated with an increase in the serum level of intact parathyroid hormone. In contrast, treatment with alfacalcidol resulted in a tendency of these parameters to change in the opposite direction. No difference in fracture incidence between the two groups was observed. The overall safety of alendronate was comparable to that of alfacalcidol. In conclusion, although it was a relatively short-term study of 48 weeks, the results of the present study indicate that alendronate at the daily dose of 5 mg was effective in increasing LBMD and that no serious drug-related adverse events were observed in the alendronate-treated patients. Alendronate is more efficacious than alfacalcidol in increasing bone mineral density, although the mechanisms of the actions of the two drugs are apparently different.

    Notizen: Abstract A rare case of primary large cell carcinoma of the submandibular gland is reported. A 53-year-old man presented with a tumor in the left submandibular region extending to the supraclavicular fossa. After unsuccessful radiochemotherapy at another hospital, he was referred to our department for combined therapy of radiation, hyperthermia, and intraarterial anticancer drug infusion. Although the local tumor decreased in size after therapy, the patient died of respiratory insufficiency due to rapid progression of pulmonary metastases. Autopsy showed that tumor cells in both the submandibular gland and the lung were compatible with undifferentiated large cell carcinoma without tubular formation or laminar structure. The submandibular tumor was considered to be the primary site because cicatricial tissue surrounding the lesion suggested that had formed over a long period. The pulmonary lesions were considered to be metastases because necrosis and intravascular carcinoma cell embolism were noted. The above findings led to the final diagnosis of primary large cell carcinoma of the submandibular gland with pulmonary metastases. This condition has rarely been reported in the literature.
