    Notes: Abstract We report the pathological changes in skeletal muscle from a patient with acute adult T cell leukemia (ATL). HTLV-I provirus was detected in infiltrating cells using in situ polymerase chain reaction in frozen sections. Furthermore, aberrant expression of the p53 protein was observed in the infiltrating cells. As p53 protein was not observed in mononuclear inflammatory cells in patients with polymyositis, expression of the p53 protein was considered to be one of the characteristic findings in ATL cells. This is the first direct detection of ATL cells in skeletal muscle.

    Notes: Abstract Bone-resorbing activities of 24-epi-1α-hydroxyvitamin D2 [24-epi-1α(OH)D2], 24-epi-1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D2 [24-epi-1,25(OH)2D2], and 1α,24S,25-trihydroxyvitamin D2 [1,24S,25(OH)3D2], which might be a metabolite of 24-epi-1,25(OH)2D2, were investigated. In an in vitro bone resorption test, the activity of 24-epi-1α(OH)D2 was similar to that of 1α-hydroxyvitamin D3 [1α(OH)D3] at 10-9 M-10-6 M. The activity of 24-epi-1,25(OH)2D2 was weaker than that of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3] at 10-11 M-10-8 M. On the other hand, the activity of 1,24S,25(OH)3D2 was similar to that of 24-epi-1,25(OH)2D2 at 10-11 M-10-9 M. In the formation assay of osteoclast-like cells, the activity of 24-epi-1α(OH)D2 was weaker than that of 1α(OH)D3 at 10-7 M. The activity of 24-epi-1,25(OH)2D2 was almost similar to that of 1,25(OH)2D3 at 10-11 M-10-7 M. The activity of 1,24S,25(OH)3D2 was significantly weaker than that of 24-epi-1,25(OH)2D2 at 10-11 M-10-9 M. In the two experiments, the potencies of 24-epi-1,25(OH)2D2 were about 100 times higher than those of 24-epi-1α(OH)D2. In an in vivo/in vitro bone resorption test, the activity of 24-epi-1α(OH)D2 was almost similar to those of 1α(OH)D3 and 1,25(OH)2D3 and higher than those of 24-epi-1,25(OH)2D2 and 1,24S,25(OH)3D2. 24-epi-1α-(OH)D2 and 1α(OH)D3 were longer lasting than 24-epi-1,25(OH)2D2 and 1,25(OH)2D3 in this experiment. These results suggested that 24-epi-1α(OH)D2 as well as 1α(OH)D3 was converted into dihydroxy form in vivo.

    Notes: Abstract The eighth nerve compound action potential (CAP) in 95 guinea pigs was measured using click stimuli to investigate age-related changes in their neural auditory thresholds. The animals were separated into three groups: group A (n = 43, 86 ears; 2–4 months old); group B (n = 29; 58 ears, 13–15 months old); and group C (n = 23; 46 ears, 23–25 months old). With increasing age, a gradual elevation of CAP thresholds was clearly seen among the three groups. The negative peak (N1) latencies of the CAP were prolonged, and the N1 amplitudes of the CAP decreased. There were significant differences in N1 latencies among the three groups and in N1 amplitudes between groups A and B, and between groups A and C. However, the rate of decline of the thresholds as well as the input-output function curves of the CAP varied in some of the oldest animals, suggesting that there were some individual differences in degenerative aging processes of the auditory system.
