Experimental Studies on Protective Effects of FK506 Against Hepatic Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury
Purposes ; FK506 (strong immunosuppressive agent) was investigated experimentally whether to protect the hepatic IRI. Methods ; Warm ischemic experiment using pigs and rats were performed and examined whether FK506 is effective. Results ; The results obtained are as follows. 1. Warm ischemia allowed time of the pigs without FK506 was 150 minutes, but as for that of FK506 group, the extension of 30 minutes was got in 180 minutes. 2. Biliary excretion rate of BSP after reperfusion were better in the group of 180 minutes ischemia with FK506 than in without FK506 group. 3. Chemiluminescence intensity in the peripheral neutrophils and adhered and infiltrated leukocytes in the liver were suppressed markedly by FK506. 4. The vascular endothelium with the scanning electron microscope was relatively preserved in the FK506 group comparing to the placebo group on 30 minutes after reperfusion. 5. Stress gastric ulcer was controlled and myeloperoxidase activity in the gastric mucosa was suppressed by FK506. Conclusion ; Based on the results of theses experiments, it was suggested that FK506 has a protective effect on IRI by suppressing : the impairment of sinusoidal endothelial cells ; the activation of KCs ; the disturbance of micro-circulation ; oxidative stress ; inflammation ; and the accumulation of leukocytes
小児急性リンパ性白血病のL-アスパラギナーゼを含む寛解導入療法ではトロンピン・プラスミン生成試験において著明な線溶抑制を主体とする凝固障害を示す。
Background: L-asparaginase (L-Asp)-associated thromboembolisms are serious complications in pediatrics patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), especially at ≥10.0 years old, but the pathogenesis remains to be clarified. Procedure: We conducted a multicenter, prospective study of 72 patients with ALL aged 1.0 to 15.2 years treated with either a Berlin-Frankfurt-Münster (BFM) 95-ALL oriented regimen or Japan Association of Childhood Leukemia Study ALL-02 protocol. We divided patients into each treatment protocol and investigated the dynamic changes in coagulation and fibrinolysis using simultaneous thrombin and plasmin generation assay. Patients' plasma samples were collected at the prephase (T0), intermittent phase (T1), and postphase of L-Asp therapy (T2), and postinduction phase (T3). Measurements of endogenous thrombin potential (T-EP) and plasmin peak height (P-Peak) were compared to normal plasma. Results: None of the cases developed thromboembolisms. Median ratios of T-EP and P-Peak for the controls in the JACLS group were 1.06 and 0.87 (T0), 1.04 and 0.71 (T1), 1.02 and 0.69 (T2), and 1.20 and 0.92 (T3), respectively, while those in the BFM group were 1.06 and 1.00 (T0), 1.04 and 0.64 (T1), 1.16 and 0.58 (T2), and 1.16 and 0.85 (T3), respectively. In particular, P-Peak ratios were depressed at T1 and T2 compared to T0 in the BFM group (P < .01). Moreover, P-Peak ratios in patients ≥10.0 years old were lower at T1 in the BFM group (P = .02). Conclusions: The results demonstrated that hemostatic dynamics appeared to shift to a hypercoagulable state with marked hypofibrinolysis associated with L-Asp therapy, especially in patients ≥10.0 years old following the BFM regimen.博士(医学)・甲第722号・令和元年12月5日© 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.This is the pre-peer reviewed version of the following article: [https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/pbc.28016], which has been published in final form at [https://doi.org/10.1002/pbc.28016].

FDTD法と多倍長精度計算法による完全導体円板の電流分布計算
As for the scatter problem by a circular disc of perfect conductor, it is reported to obtain theresult only up to wavelength from 2.5 to 3.0 in the accuracy of a general programming language in thenumerical calculation according to an analytical method by Nomura and Katsura. In this research,theeffectiveness of applying the FDTD method is verified by comparing the results of it to the ones of theanalytical method by Nomura and Katsura
