Abstract

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) is a rare autosomal recessive disease characterized by defective repair of ultraviolet (UV) irradiation-induced DNA damage and high risk of skin cancer. Thus, these patients require strict photoprotection. Considering the importance of UV-mediated cutaneous vitamin D production, such rigorous photoprotection would cause vitamin D deficiency. Then, we have studied the vitamin D status in patients with XP-A, a group requiring the most strict photoprotection. SUBJECTS/METHODS: Twenty-one patients with XP-A (aged 6-25) were evaluated for their vitamin D intake, serum levels of 25-hydroxy-vitamin D (25OHD) and parathyroid hormone (PTH). Vitamin D intake was assessed by a 2-day food weighing method. RESULTS: Median dietary intake of vitamin D was 4.1 [micro]g/day, and the median concentrations of serum 25OHD and PTH were 7.7 and 49.9 pg/ml, respectively. In 76% of the patients, serum 25OHD level was lower than 10 ng/ml, indicating vitamin D deficiency. Vitamin D intake and serum 25OHD level were significantly lower in patients under enteral nutrition (EN) than those with oral intake (OI). Multivariate analyses revealed that EN was a significant predictor of decreased serum 25OHD level ([beta] coefficient = - 0.59, P=0.03). CONCLUSIONS: Vitamin D deficiency is highly prevalent in XP-A patients, and supplementation should be considered to avoid unfavorable skeletal consequences in these patients. In addition, determination of dietary vitamin D requirement has been a difficult work issue in the decision of dietary reference intakes (DRIs) because of its cutaneous production. Data from XP patients would yield useful information for the determination of DRIs for vitamin D.

Abstract

Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is a malignant skin tumor originating from cells of the epidermal basal layer and adnexal epithelium, especially in sun-exposed areas. Unlike squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), BCC has a propensity to grow only locally possibly due to differences in the surrounding microenvironment including the basement membrane (BM) and stroma. To investigate the components constituting the BM and surrounding connective tissue in BCC and SCC, we analyzed the expression of BM proteins, nidogen 1 (NID1) and type IV collagen (COL4). We compared the immunohistochemical expressions of NID1 and COL4 among tumor specimens from BCC, SCC and its precancerous condition, actinic keratosis (AK), (n = 5 each condition). The expressions of NID1 and COL4 were both decreased around the tumor nest of SCC. In contrast, the expressions of both NID1 and COL4 around the nest of BCC were much higher than in the peri-lesional normal skin not only at the BM, but also in the surrounding stromal tissue. Our findings imply that the surrounding stromal cells of BCC, but not SCC or AK, excessively produce NID1 and COL4, which may be involved in preventing BCC cells from destroying the BM and invading the dermis.

Abstract

23rd European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition, 1-5 September 2008, Valencia, Spain; 853-854, The concentrator photovoltaic (CPV) system using high efficiency triple junction cells made of - semiconductor materials, which is one of the high concentration photovoltaic power generation systems, is a promising technology expected to provide a solution to the problem of silicon shortages we are now facing. Since the CPV system is mainly designed for use under harsh hot environmental conditions such as tropical zones around the equator and deserts, more highly reliable glass that can endure long daylight hours is needed for the system. Using our original time-tested, state-of-the-art glass forming technology, Isuzu Glass develops and manufactures collective lenses, which are indispensable to the high concentration photovoltaic power generation system. Our technology makes it possible to form a variety of glass configurations, which cannot be achieved by polishing techniques alone, flexibly according to customers’ needs.

Abstract

We analyze the data of the TAMA300 detector to search for gravitational waves from inspiraling compact star binaries with masses of the component stars in the range 1M[sun]–3M[sun]. In this analysis, 2705 hours of data, taken during the years 2000–2004, are used for the event search. We combine the results of different observation runs, and obtain a single upper limit on the rate of the coalescence of compact binaries in our Galaxy of 20 per year at a 90% confidence level. In this upper limit, the effects of various systematic errors such as the uncertainty of the background estimation and the calibration of the detector's sensitivity are included.

Abstract

Destruction of cementum and alveolar bone is the main causative event for the exfoliation of teeth as a consequence of periodontitis. Prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) and PGE receptor subtypes (EPs) play an important role in modulating osteoblast-mediated osteoclastogenesis; however, no information is available on the role of PGE(2) and EPs in regulating cementoblast-mediated cementoclastogenesis. We hypothesized that the PGE(2)-EPs pathway also regulates cementoblasts' ability to activate cementoclasts. For these studies, OCCM-30 cells (a mouse cementoblast cell line) were exposed to PGE(2) and specific EP agonists. PGE(2) (100 ng/mL) and EP4 agonist (1 microM) up-regulated RANKL and IL-6 mRNA levels, while they down-regulated OPG mRNA expression. The EP4 antagonist (1 microM) eliminated these effects of PGE(2). PGE(2) treatment of co-cultures of OCCM-30 cells with bone marrow cells induced TRAP-positive cells via the EP4 pathway. These findings suggest that PGE(2) promotes cementoblast-mediated cementoclastogenesis by regulating the expression of RANKL and OPG via the EP4 pathway. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

We search for coincident gravitational wave signals from inspiralling neutron star binaries using LIGO and TAMA300 data taken during early 2003. Using a simple trigger exchange method, we perform an intercollaboration coincidence search during times when TAMA300 and only one of the LIGO sites were operational. We find no evidence of any gravitational wave signals. We place an observational upper limit on the rate of binary neutron star coalescence with component masses between 1 and 3M of 49 per year per Milky Way equivalent galaxy at a 90% confidence level. The methods developed during this search will find application in future network inspiral analyses. © 2006 The American Physical Society.

Abstract

We report on the first joint search for gravitational waves by the TAMA and LIGO collaborations. We looked for millisecond-duration unmodeled gravitational-wave bursts in 473 hr of coincident data collected during early 2003. No candidate signals were found. We set an upper limit of 0.12 events per day on the rate of detectable gravitational-wave bursts, at 90% confidence level. From software simulations, we estimate that our detector network was sensitive to bursts with root-sum-square strain amplitude above approximately 1-3×10-19Hz-1/2 in the frequency band 700-2000 Hz. We describe the details of this collaborative search, with particular emphasis on its advantages and disadvantages compared to searches by LIGO and TAMA separately using the same data. Benefits include a lower background and longer observation time, at some cost in sensitivity and bandwidth. We also demonstrate techniques for performing coincidence searches with a heterogeneous network of detectors with different noise spectra and orientations. These techniques include using coordinated software signal injections to estimate the network sensitivity, and tuning the analysis to maximize the sensitivity and the livetime, subject to constraints on the background. © 2005 The American Physical Society.

Abstract

The clinical effect and safety of Lp-TAE alone and combined with radiofrequency (RF) capacitive hyperthermia (HT) were evaluated in 20 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) associated with cirrhosis of the liver. After the oily carcinostatic agents were administered by Lp-TAE, HT, at a temperature of greater than 42.5 degrees C, was induced for 40 min, twice a week by an RF of 8 MHz for a total of 10 to 38 times. The response rate was 40% in the 10 cases that were treated with Lp-TAE combined with HT and 20% in the 10 cases that were treated with Lp-TAE. The patients who were treated with Lp-TAE combined with HT had a tendency to have better survival rates than those of the Lp-TAE group (p less than 0.099). The main side-effects of Lp-TAE combined with HT were low-grade fever, localized pain, myelo-suppression and liver dysfunction, but these were transient and eventually disappeared.
