(Summary) A strong hypoxic environment has been observed in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cells, which contributes to drug resistance, tumor progression, and metastasis. Therefore, we performed bioinformatics analyses to investigate potential targets for the treatment of PDAC. To identify potential genes as effective PDAC treatment targets, we selected all genes whose expression level was related to worse overall survival (OS) in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and selected only the genes that matched with the genes upregulated due to hypoxia in pancreatic cancer cells in the dataset obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Although the extracted 107 hypoxia-responsive genes included the genes that were slightly enriched in angiogenic factors, TCGA data analysis revealed that the expression level of endothelial cell (EC) markers did not affect OS. Finally, we selected CA9 and PRELID2 as potential targets for PDAC treatment and elucidated that a CA9 inhibitor, U-104, suppressed pancreatic cancer cell growth more effectively than 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and PRELID2 siRNA treatment suppressed the cell growth stronger than CA9 siRNA treatment. Thus, we elucidated that specific inhibition of PRELID2 as well as CA9, extracted via exhaustive bioinformatic analyses of clinical datasets, could be a more effective strategy for PDAC treatment.

(Summary) Hypoxia in cancer is important in the development of cancer-selective medicines. Here, a novel hypoxia-responsible dual-prodrug is described. We designed and synthesized 2-nitroimidazole derivatives which spontaneously release both a PYG inhibitor and gemcitabine under hypoxic conditions. One such derivative, a prodrug 9 was found to be stable against chemical and enzymatic hydrolysis, and upon chemical reduction of the nitro group on imidazole, successfully releases both drugs. In an in vitro proliferation assay using human pancreatic cells, compound 9 exhibited significant anti-proliferative effects in hypoxia but fewer effects in normoxia. Consequently, prodrug 9 should be useful for cancer treatment due to its improved cancer selectivity and potential to overcome drug resistance.

(Summary) In this study, we have revealed a novel mechanism underlying the suppressive effects of L-flow on EC inflammation, migration, proliferation, apoptosis, and fibrotic changes through promoting CHK1-induced SENP2 S344 phosphorylation. The phospho-site mutation SENP2 S344A responds to L-flow through a distinct mechanism, which involves the upregulation of both mesenchymal and EC marker genes.

(Summary) Exercise changes the tumor microenvironment by remodeling blood vessels and increasing infiltration by cytotoxic immune cells. The mechanisms driving these changes remain unclear. Herein, we demonstrate that exercise normalizes tumor vasculature and upregulates endothelial expression of VCAM1 in YUMMER 1.7 and B16F10 murine models of melanoma but differentially regulates tumor growth, hypoxia, and the immune response. We found that exercise suppressed tumor growth and increased CD8+ T-cell infiltration in YUMMER but not in B16F10 tumors. Single-cell RNA sequencing and flow cytometry revealed exercise modulated the number and phenotype of tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells and myeloid cells. Specifically, exercise caused a phenotypic shift in the tumor-associated macrophage population and increased the expression of MHC class II transcripts. We further demonstrated that ERK5 S496A knock-in mice, which are phosphorylation deficient at the S496 residue, "mimicked" the exercise effect when unexercised, yet when exercised, these mice displayed a reversal in the effect of exercise on tumor growth and macrophage polarization compared with wild-type mice. Taken together, our results reveal tumor-specific differences in the immune response to exercise and show that ERK5 signaling via the S496 residue plays a crucial role in exercise-induced tumor microenvironment changes.

(Summary) We discovered a novel mechanism by which the macrophage ERK5-NRF2 axis develops a unique senescence-associated secretory phenotype/stemness phenotype by upregulating AHR to engender atherogenesis. The finding of senescence-associated stemness phenotype provides a molecular explanation to resolve the paradox of senescence in proliferative plaque by permitting myeloid cells to escape the senescence-induced cell cycle arrest during atherosclerosis formation.

(Summary) memory and naïve B, and myeloid cells, (2) senescence-associated β-gal staining, and (3) mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) after ionizing radiation (IR). These data suggest the crucial role of p90RSK activation in immunosenescence. The critical role of p90RSK activation in immune cells and T-bet induction in upregulating atherosclerosis formation has been reported. Furthermore, T-bet directly binds to the CD38 promoter region and upregulates CD38 expression. Since both T-bet and CD38 play a significant role in the process of immunosenescence, our data provide a cellular and molecular mechanism that links RT-induced p90RSK activation and the immunosenescence with T-bet and CD38 induction observed in thoracic cancer patients treated by RT and suggests that targeting the p90RSK/T-bet/CD38 pathway could play a role in preventing the radiation-associated CVD and improving cancer prognosis by inhibiting immunosenescence.

(Summary) mRNA and MX1 expression, again supporting the pro-viral response mediated by MAGI1. MAGI1 depletion induces the expression of MX1 and virus suppression. The data suggests that IAV suppression by MAGI1 depletion may, in part, be due to MX1 induction. Lastly, interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3) translocates to the nucleus in the absence of IRF3 phosphorylation, and IRF3 SUMOylation is abolished in MAGI1-depleted ECs. The data suggests that MAGI1 inhibits IRF3 activation by maintaining IRF3 SUMOylation. In summary, IAV infection occurs in ECs in a MAGI1 expression-dependent manner by inhibiting anti-viral responses including STATs and IRF3 activation and subsequent MX1 induction, and MAGI1 plays a role in EC activation, and in upregulating a pro-viral response. Therefore, the inhibition of MAGI1 is a potential therapeutic target for IAV-induced cardiovascular disease.

(Summary) Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) activation plays a crucial role in vascular diseases. In endothelial cells, FAK activation is involved in the activation of pro-inflammatory signaling and the progression of atherosclerosis. Disturbed flow (D-flow) induces endothelial activation and senescence, but the exact role of FAK in D-flow-induced endothelial activation and senescence remains unclear. The objective of this study is to investigate the role of FAK SUMOylation in D-flow-induced endothelial activation and senescence. The results showed that D-flow induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) production via NADPH oxidase activation and activated a redox-sensitive kinase p90RSK, leading to FAK activation by upregulating FAK K152 SUMOylation and the subsequent Vav2 phosphorylation, which in turn formed a positive feedback loop by upregulating ROS production. This feedback loop played a crucial role in regulating endothelial activation and senescence. D-flow-induced endothelial activation and senescence were significantly inhibited by mutating a FAK SUMOylation site lysine152 to arginine. Collectively, we concluded that FAK K152 SUMOylation plays a key role in D-flow-induced endothelial activation and senescence by forming a positive feedback loop through ROS production.

(Summary) The incidence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) is higher in cancer survivors than in the general population. Several cancer treatments are recognized as risk factors for CVD, but specific therapies are unavailable. Many cancer treatments activate shared signaling events, which reprogram myeloid cells (MCs) towards persistent senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) and consequently CVD, but the exact mechanisms remain unclear. This study aimed to provide mechanistic insights and potential treatments by investigating how chemo-radiation can induce persistent SASP. We generated ERK5 S496A knock-in mice and determined SASP in myeloid cells (MCs) by evaluating their efferocytotic ability, antioxidation-related molecule expression, telomere length, and inflammatory gene expression. Candidate SASP inducers were identified by high-throughput screening, using the ERK5 transcriptional activity reporter cell system. Various chemotherapy agents and ionizing radiation (IR) up-regulated p90RSK-mediated ERK5 S496 phosphorylation. Doxorubicin and IR caused metabolic changes with nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide depletion and ensuing mitochondrial stunning (reversible mitochondria dysfunction without showing any cell death under ATP depletion) via p90RSK-ERK5 modulation and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) activation, which formed a nucleus-mitochondria positive feedback loop. This feedback loop reprogramed MCs to induce a sustained SASP state, and ultimately primed MCs to be more sensitive to reactive oxygen species. This priming was also detected in circulating monocytes from cancer patients after IR. When PARP activity was transiently inhibited at the time of IR, mitochondrial stunning, priming, macrophage infiltration, and coronary atherosclerosis were all eradicated. The p90RSK-ERK5 module plays a crucial role in SASP-mediated mitochondrial stunning via regulating PARP activation. Our data show for the first time that the nucleus-mitochondria positive feedback loop formed by p90RSK-ERK5 S496 phosphorylation-mediated PARP activation plays a crucial role of persistent SASP state, and also provide preclinical evidence supporting that transient inhibition of PARP activation only at the time of radiation therapy can prevent future CVD in cancer survivors.

(Summary) Despite the availability of more than 20 clinical antiepileptic drugs, approximately 30% of patients with epilepsy do not respond to antiepileptic drug treatment. Therefore, it is important to develop antiepileptic products that function via novel mechanisms. In the present study, we evaluated data from one of the largest global databases to identify drugs with antiepileptic effects, and subsequently attempted to understand the effect of the combination of antiepileptic drugs and valacyclovir in epileptic seizures using a kindling model. To induce kindling in mice, pentylenetetrazol at a dose of 40 mg/kg was administered once every 48 h. Valacyclovir was orally administered 30 min before antiepileptic drug injection in kindled mice, and behavioral seizures were monitored for 20 min following pentylenetetrazol administration. Additionally, c-Fos expression in the hippocampal dentate gyrus was measured in kindled mice. Valacyclovir showed inhibitory effects on pentylenetetrazol-induced kindled seizures. In addition, simultaneous use of levetiracetam and valacyclovir caused more potent inhibition of seizure activity, and neither valproic acid nor diazepam augmented the anti-seizure effect in kindled mice. Furthermore, kindled mice showed increased c-Fos levels in the dentate gyrus. The increase in c-Fos expression was significantly inhibited by the simultaneous use of levetiracetam and valacyclovir. The findings of the present study indicate that a combination of levetiracetam and valacyclovir had possible anticonvulsive effects on pentylenetetrazol-induced kindled epileptic seizures. These results suggest that valacyclovir may have an antiseizure effect in patients with epilepsy.

(Summary) Cisplatin is widely used as an anti-tumor drug for the treatment of solid tumors. Unfortunately, it causes kidney toxicity as a critical side effect, limiting its use, given that no preventive drug against cisplatin-induced kidney toxicity is currently available. Here, based on a repositioning analysis of the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Events Reporting System, we found that a previously developed drug, diphenhydramine, may provide a novel treatment for cisplatin-induced kidney toxicity. To confirm this, the actual efficacy of diphenhydramine was evaluated in in vitro and in vivo experiments. Diphenhydramine inhibited cisplatin-induced cell death in kidney proximal tubular cells. Mice administered cisplatin developed kidney injury with significant dysfunction (mean plasma creatinine: 0.43 vs 0.15 mg/dl) and showed augmented oxidative stress, increased apoptosis, elevated inflammatory cytokines, and MAPKs activation. However, most of these symptoms were suppressed by treatment with diphenhydramine. Furthermore, the concentration of cisplatin in the kidney was significantly attenuated in diphenhydramine-treated mice (mean platinum content: 70.0 vs 53.4 μg/g dry kidney weight). Importantly, diphenhydramine did not influence or interfere with the anti-tumor effect of cisplatin in any of the in vitro or in vivo experiments. In a selected cohort of 98 1:1 matched patients from a retrospective database of 1467 patients showed that patients with malignant cancer who had used diphenhydramine before cisplatin treatment exhibited significantly less acute kidney injury compared to ones who did not (6.1 % vs 22.4 %, respectively). Thus, diphenhydramine demonstrated efficacy as a novel preventive medicine against cisplatin-induced kidney toxicity.

(Summary) Iron accumulation affects obesity and diabetes, both of which are ameliorated by iron reduction. Ferritin, an iron-storage protein, plays a crucial role in iron metabolism. H-ferritin exerts its cytoprotective action by reducing toxicity via its ferroxidase activity. We investigated the role of macrophage H-ferritin in obesity and diabetes. Conditional macrophage-specific H-ferritin (Fth, also known as Fth1) knockout (LysM-Cre Fth KO) mice were used and divided into four groups: wild-type (WT) and LysM-Cre Fth KO mice with normal diet (ND), and WT and LysM-Cre Fth KO mice with high-fat diet (HFD). These mice were analysed for characteristics of obesity and diabetes, tissue iron content, inflammation, oxidative stress, insulin sensitivity and metabolic measurements. RAW264.7 macrophage cells were used for in vitro experiments. Iron concentration reduced, and mRNA expression of ferroportin increased, in macrophages from LysM-Cre Fth KO mice. HFD-induced obesity was lower in LysM-Cre Fth KO mice than in WT mice at 12 weeks (body weight: KO 34.6 ± 5.6 g vs WT 40.1 ± 5.2 g). mRNA expression of inflammatory cytokines and infiltrated macrophages and oxidative stress increased in the adipose tissue of HFD-fed WT mice, but was not elevated in HFD-fed LysM-Cre Fth KO mice. However, WT mice fed an HFD had elevated iron concentration in adipose tissue and spleen, which was not observed in LysM-Cre Fth KO mice fed an HFD (adipose tissue [μmol Fe/g protein]: KO 1496 ± 479 vs WT 2316 ± 866; spleen [μmol Fe/g protein]: KO 218 ± 54 vs WT 334 ± 83). Moreover, HFD administration impaired both glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity in WT mice, which was ameliorated in LysM-Cre Fth KO mice. In addition, energy expenditure, mRNA expression of thermogenic genes, and body temperature were higher in KO mice with HFD than WT mice with HFD. In vitro experiments showed that iron content was reduced, and lipopolysaccharide-induced Tnf-α (also known as Tnf) mRNA upregulation was inhibited in a macrophage cell line transfected with Fth siRNA. Deletion of macrophage H-ferritin suppresses the inflammatory response by reducing intracellular iron levels, resulting in the prevention of HFD-induced obesity and diabetes. The findings from this study highlight macrophage iron levels as a potential therapeutic target for obesity and diabetes.

(Summary) The roles of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) have been studied in the tumor progression, and CAFs are expected to become the new targets for cancer pharmacotherapies. CAFs contribute to tumor cell survival and proliferation, tumor angiogenesis, immune suppression, tumor inflammation, tumor cell invasion and metastasis, and extracellular matrix remodeling. However, detailed mechanisms of how CAFs function in the living system remain unclear. CAFs include α-smooth muscle actin, expressing activated fibroblasts similar to myofibroblasts, and are highly capable of producing collagen. Several reports have demonstrated the contributions of extracellular-signal-regulated kinase 5 (ERK5) in fibroblasts to the fibrotic processes; however, the roles of CAF-derived ERK5 remain unclear. To investigate the roles of CAF-derived ERK5 in the tumor progression, we created mice lacking the ERK5 gene specifically in fibroblasts. Colon-26 mouse colon cancer cells were implanted into the mice subcutaneously, and the histological analyses of the tumor tissue were performed after 2 weeks. Immunofluorescence analyses showed that recipient-derived fibroblasts existed within the tumor tissue. The present study demonstrated that fibroblast-specific ERK5 deficiency exacerbated tumor progression and it was accompanied with thicker tumor vessel formation and the increase in the number of activated fibroblasts. We combined the results of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database analysis with our animal studies, and indicated that regulating ERK5 activity in CAFs or CAF invasion into the tumor tissue can be important strategies for the development of new targets in cancer pharmacotherapies.

(Summary) Arterial calcification, a risk factor of cardiovascular events, develops with differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) into osteoblast-like cells. Cyclophilin A (CypA) is a peptidyl-prolyl isomerase involved in cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis and aortic aneurysms, and rho-associated protein kinase (ROCK) is involved in the pathogenesis of vascular calcification. CypA is secreted in a ROCK activity-dependent manner and works as a mitogen via autocrine or paracrine mechanisms in VSMCs. We examined the involvement of the ROCK-CypA axis in VSMC calcification induced by inorganic phosphate (Pi), a potent cell mineralization initiator. We found that Pi stimulated ROCK activity, CypA secretion, extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK) 1/2 phosphorylation, and runt-related transcription factor 2 expression, resulting in calcium accumulation in rat aortic smooth muscle cells (RASMCs). The ROCK inhibitor Y-27632 significantly suppressed Pi-induced CypA secretion, ERK1/2 phosphorylation, and calcium accumulation. Recombinant CypA was found to be associated with increased calcium accumulation in RASMCs. Based on these results, we suggest that autocrine CypA is mediated by ROCK activity and is involved in Pi-induced ERK1/2 phosphorylation following calcification signaling in RASMCs.

(Summary) Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) have been used worldwide to treat gastrointestinal disorders. A recent study showed that long-term use of PPIs caused iron deficiency; however, it is unclear whether PPIs affect iron metabolism directly. We investigated the effect of PPIs on the peptide hepcidin, an important iron regulatory hormone. First, we used the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System database and analyzed the influence of PPIs. We found that PPIs, as well as H2 blockers, increased the odds ratio of iron-deficient anemia. Next, HepG2 cells were used to examine the action of PPIs and H2 blockers on hepcidin. PPIs augmented hepcidin expression, while H2 blockers did not. In fact, the PPI omeprazole increased hepcidin secretion, and omeprazole-induced hepcidin upregulation was inhibited by gene silencing or the pharmacological inhibition of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor. In mouse experiments, omeprazole also increased hepatic hepcidin mRNA expression and blood hepcidin levels. In mice treated with omeprazole, protein levels of duodenal and splenic ferroportin decreased. Taken together, PPIs directly affect iron metabolism by suppressing iron absorption through the inhibition of duodenal ferroportin via hepcidin upregulation. These findings provide a new insight into the molecular mechanism of PPI-induced iron deficiency.

(Summary) Skeletal muscle atrophy is caused by disruption in the homeostatic balance of muscle degeneration and regeneration under various pathophysiological conditions. We have previously reported that iron accumulation induces skeletal muscle atrophy a ubiquitin ligase-dependent pathway. However, the potential effect of iron accumulation on muscle regeneration remains unclear. To examine the effect of iron accumulation on myogenesis, we used a mouse model with cardiotoxin (CTX)-induced muscle regeneration and C2C12 mouse myoblast cells . In mice with iron overload, the skeletal muscles exhibited increased oxidative stress and decreased expression of satellite cell markers. Following CTX-induced muscle injury, these mice also displayed delayed muscle regeneration with a decrease in the size of regenerating myofibers, reduced expression of myoblast differentiation markers, and decreased phosphorylation of MAPK signaling pathways. , iron overload also suppressed the differentiation of C2C12 myoblast cells but the suppression could be reversed by superoxide scavenging using tempol. Excess iron inhibits myogenesis oxidative stress, leading to an imbalance in skeletal muscle homeostasis.-Ikeda, Y., Satoh, A., Horinouchi, Y., Hamano, H., Watanabe, H., Imao, M., Imanishi, M., Zamami, Y., Takechi, K., Izawa-Ishizawa, Y., Miyamoto, L., Hirayama, T., Nagasawa, H., Ishizawa, K., Aihara, K.-I., Tsuchiya, K., Tamaki, T.

(Summary) The interplay among signaling events for endothelial cell (EC) senescence, apoptosis, and activation and how these pathological conditions promote atherosclerosis in the area exposed to disturbed flow (d-flow) in concert remain unclear. The aim of this study was to determine whether telomeric repeat-binding factor 2-interacting protein (TERF2IP), a member of the shelterin complex at the telomere, can regulate EC senescence, apoptosis, and activation simultaneously, and if so, by what molecular mechanisms. We found that d-flow induced p90RSK and TERF2IP interaction in a p90RSK kinase activity-dependent manner. An in vitro kinase assay revealed that p90RSK directly phosphorylated TERF2IP at the serine 205 (S205) residue, and d-flow increased TERF2IP S205 phosphorylation as well as EC senescence, apoptosis, and activation by activating p90RSK. TERF2IP phosphorylation was crucial for nuclear export of the TERF2IP-TRF2 complex, which led to EC activation by cytosolic TERF2IP-mediated NF-κB activation and also to senescence and apoptosis of ECs by depleting TRF2 from the nucleus. Lastly, using EC-specific TERF2IP-knockout (TERF2IP-KO) mice, we found that the depletion of TERF2IP inhibited d-flow-induced EC senescence, apoptosis, and activation, as well as atherosclerotic plaque formation. These findings demonstrate that TERF2IP is an important molecular switch that simultaneously accelerates EC senescence, apoptosis, and activation by S205 phosphorylation.

(Summary) The possible association between the membrane-associated guanylate kinase with inverted domain structure-1 (MAGI1) and inflammation has been suggested, but the molecular mechanisms underlying this link, especially during atherogenesis, remain unclear. In endothelial cells (ECs) exposed to disturbed flow (d-flow), p90 ribosomal S6 kinase (p90RSK) bound to MAGI1, causing MAGI1-S741 phosphorylation and sentrin/SUMO-specific protease 2 T368 phosphorylation-mediated MAGI1-K931 deSUMOylation. MAGI1-S741 phosphorylation upregulated EC activation via activating Rap1. MAGI1-K931 deSUMOylation induced both nuclear translocation of p90RSK-MAGI1 and ATF-6-MAGI1 complexes, which accelerated EC activation and apoptosis, respectively. Microarray screening revealed key roles for MAGI1 in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response. In this context, MAGI1 associated with activating transcription factor 6 (ATF-6). MAGI1 expression was upregulated in ECs and macrophages found in atherosclerotic-prone regions of mouse aortas as well as in the colonic epithelia and ECs of patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Further, reduced MAGI1 expression in Magi1-/+ mice inhibited d-flow-induced atherogenesis. In sum, EC activation and ER stress-mediated apoptosis are regulated in concert by two different types of MAGI1 posttranslational modifications, elucidating attractive drug targets for chronic inflammatory disease, particularly atherosclerosis.

(Summary) Aortic dissection is a life-threatening disease. At present, the only therapeutic strategies available are surgery and antihypertensive drugs. Moreover, the molecular mechanisms underlying the onset of aortic dissection are still unclear. We established a novel aortic dissection model in mice using pharmacologically induced endothelial dysfunction. We then used the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report database to investigate the role of pitavastatin in preventing the onset of aortic dissection. To induce endothelial dysfunction, Nω-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester, a nitric oxide synthase inhibitor, was administered to C57BL/6 mice. Three weeks later, angiotensin II (Ang II) and β-aminopropionitrile (BAPN), a lysyl oxidase inhibitor, were administered with osmotic mini-pumps. False lumen formation was used as the pathological determinant of aortic dissection. The incidences of aortic dissection and death from aneurysmal rupture were significantly higher in the Nω-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester, Ang II, and BAPN (LAB) group than they were in the Ang II and BAPN (AB) group.Pitavastatin was administered orally to LAB mice. It significantly lowered the incidences of dissection and rupture. It also decreased inflammation and medial degradation, both of which were exacerbated in the LAB group. The Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report database analysis indicated that there were 113 cases of aortic dissection out of 95 090 patients (0.12%) not receiving statins but only six cases out of 16 668 patients receiving statins (0.04%) (odds ratio: 0.30; P = 0.0043). Our results suggest that endothelial dysfunction is associated with the onset of aortic dissection and pitavastatin can help prevent this condition.

(Summary) Uridine 5'-diphospho-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT), a metabolic enzyme of irinotecan active metabolite, has two genetic polymorphisms (UGT1A16 and UGT1A128). In UGT1A1 homozygous or heterozygous patients, metabolism is delayed and the risk of developing adverse effects is increased, and therefore, dose reduction of irinotecan is considered. However, the specific dose reduction rate of irinotecan for heterozygous patients is uncertain. We studied the necessity of irinotecan dose reduction and its optimal dose in UGT1A1 heterozygous patients with lung cancer. Patients with lung cancer treated with irinotecan in the Tokushima University Hospital or Tokushima Municipal Hospital were included in this study. The dose of irinotecan was evaluated based on the relative dose intensity (RDI). The time to treatment failure (TTF) was defined as the period until treatment change, death, or progressive disease based on response evaluation criteria of solid tumors. We targeted 31 patients treated with irinotecan: 12 wild types (WT), 14 heterozygotes, and 1 complex heterozygote and 4 homozygotes. There was no significant difference in the TTF, but the mean RDI during the entire treatment period was significantly different in the wild type (79%), heterozygous (62%), and complex heterozygous and homozygous groups (46%). In addition, the proportion of patients who completed treatment without dose reduction in the WT group tended to be higher than that in the other groups. For lung cancer patients with UGT1A1 heterozygote types who start irinotecan therapy, reducing the initial dose by approximately 20% might be a safer chemotherapy without decreasing the therapeutic effect.

(Summary) Breakpoint cluster region-Abelson murine leukemia (BCR-ABL) inhibitors markedly improve the prognosis of chronic myeloid leukemia. However, high treatment adherence is necessary for successful treatment with BCR-ABL inhibitors. Therefore, an adequate understanding of the adverse event profiles of BCR-ABL inhibitors is essential. Although many adverse events are observed in trials, an accurate identification of adverse events based only on clinical trial results is difficult because of strict entry criteria or limited follow-up durations. In particular, BCR-ABL inhibitor-induced impaired glucose metabolism remains controversial. Pharmacovigilance evaluations using spontaneous reporting systems are useful for analyzing drug-related adverse events in clinical settings. Therefore, we conducted signal detection analyses for BCR-ABL inhibitor-induced impaired glucose metabolism by using the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) and Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report (JADER) database. Signals for an increased reporting rate of impaired glucose metabolism were detected only for nilotinib use, whereas these signals were not detected for other BCR-ABL inhibitors. Subgroup analyses showed a clearly increased nilotinib-associated reporting rate of impaired glucose metabolism in male and younger patients. Although FAERS- and JADER-based signal detection analyses cannot determine causality perfectly, our study suggests the effects on glucose metabolism are different between BCR-ABL inhibitors and provides useful information for the selection of appropriate BCR-ABL inhibitors.

(Summary) A history of hypertension is a known risk factor for delirium in patients in intensive care units, but the effect of antihypertensive agents on delirium development is unclear. Nicardipine, a calcium channel blocker, is widely used in ICU as a treatment agent for hypertensive emergency. This study investigated the relationship between the administration of nicardipine hydrochloride and delirium development in patients under mechanical ventilation. We conducted a medical chart review of 103 patients, who were divided into two groups according to the use of nicardipine hydrochloride. The prevalence of delirium was compared with respect to factors such as age, sex, laboratory data, and medical history, by multivariate analysis. 21 patients (20.4 %) were treated with nicardipine hydrochloride in 103 patients. The treatment and non-treatment groups differed significantly in age (72 vs. 65 years) and history of high blood pressure (57% vs. 11%). Multivariate analysis revealed that patients in the treatment group developed delirium significantly less often than those in the non-treatment group (19% vs. 48%). These results suggested that treatment of high blood pressure with nicardipine hydrochloride is a possible method for preventing the development of delirium.

(Summary) We have reported that nitrosonifedipine (NO-NIF), a photodegradation product of nifedipine, has strong antioxidant and endothelial protective effects, and can suppress several cardiovascular diseases in animal models. The objective of the present study was to investigate the effects of NO-NIF on aortic aneurysm formation. The mice were infused with β-aminopropionitrile for 2 weeks and angiotensin II for 6 weeks to induce aortic aneurysm formation. The oxidative stress was measured by dihydroethidium staining and nitrotyrosine staining. The expressions of inflammation-related genes were assessed by quantitative real-time PCR and immunohistochemical staining. To clarify the mechanisms of how NO-NIF suppresses vascular cell adhesion molecule (VCAM)-1, endothelial cells were used in in vitro system. NO-NIF suppressed pharmacologically induced the aortic aneurysm formation and aortic expansion without blood pressure changes. NO-NIF suppressed elastin degradation and matrix metalloproteinase-2 mRNA expression. NO-NIF suppressed the reactive oxygen species-cyclophilin A positive feedback loop. Upregulated mRNA expressions of inflammation-related genes and endothelial VCAM-1 were suppressed by NO-NIF co-treatment in aortae. NO-NIF has the potential to be a new, nifedipine-derived therapeutic drug for suppressing aortic aneurysm formation by directly improving aortic structure with its strong ability to reduce oxidative stress and inflammation.

(Summary) Renal tubulointerstitial injury, an inflammation-associated condition, is a major cause of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Levels of activated factor X (FXa), a blood coagulation factor, are increased in various inflammatory diseases. Therefore, we investigated the protective effects of an FXa inhibitor against renal tubulointerstitial injury using unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) mice (a renal tubulointerstitial fibrosis model) and the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Events Reporting System (FAERS) database. The renal expression levels of FX and the FXa receptors protease-activated receptor (PAR)-1 and PAR-2 were significantly higher in UUO mice than in sham-operated mice. UUO-induced tubulointerstitial fibrosis and extracellular matrix expression were suppressed in UUO mice treated with the FXa inhibitor edoxaban. Additionally, edoxaban attenuated UUO-induced macrophage infiltration and inflammatory molecule upregulation. In an analysis of the FAERS database, there were significantly fewer reports of tubulointerstitial nephritis for patients treated with FXa inhibitors than for patients not treated with inhibitors. These results suggest that FXa inhibitors exert protective effects against CKD by inhibiting tubulointerstitial fibrosis.

(Summary) n emergency and critical care medical centers, tube administration is employed for patients who have difficulty swallowing oral drugs owing to decreased consciousness or mechanical ventilation. However, tube clogging due to drug injection is a concern. We compared the crushing method with the simple suspension method for the passage of amlodipine, an antihypertensive drug, in combination with rikkunshito, which has been used to treat upper gastrointestinal disorders such as functional dyspepsia and gastroesophageal reflux in emergency and critical care medical centers, to ascertain the effect of Kampo products on the passage of other drugs during tube administration. When the crushing method was employed, poorly water-soluble solid products were formed, while a uniformly dispersed suspension was obtained using the simple suspension method. In addition, the passage rate of amlodipine through the tube was 64% and 93% in the crushing and simple suspension methods, respectively, thereby indicating that the simple suspension method provided more favorable than the crushing method. The results of this study suggested that the passage rate of amlodipine for patients who received Kampo products concurrently was higher when the simple suspension method was used, and an appropriate drug amount might well be able to administered to patients using this method.

(Summary) There are few reports on hydrocortisone administration after cardiac arrest, and those that have been published included few subjects. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of hydrocortisone administration on the outcomes of patients who experienced cardiac arrest. We investigated the survival discharge rates and the length of hospital stay from cardiac arrest to discharge, stratified by use of hydrocortisone, using a Japanese health-insurance claims dataset that covers approximately 2% of the Japanese population. The study included the data of 2233 subjects who experienced either in-hospital or out-of-hospital cardiac arrest between January 2005 and May 2014. These patients were divided into two groups, based on the administration of hydrocortisone. We adjusted the baseline characteristics, medical treatment, and drug administration data of the two groups using propensity scores obtained via the inverse probability of treatment weighted method. The hydrocortisone group had a significantly higher survival discharge rate (13/61 [21.1%] vs. 240/2172 [11.0%], adjusted odds ratio: 4.2, 95% CI: 1.60-10.98, p = 0.004). In addition, the administration of hydrocortisone was independent predictor of survival to discharge (hazard ratio: 4.6, p < 0.001). The results demonstrate a correlation between hydrocortisone administration and the high rates of survival to discharge.

(Summary) After hypoxia, reoxygenation with air is the consensus treatment for full-term neonates; however, the effect of hyperoxic reoxygenation of adults is unknown. The present study was designed to investigate the effects of reoxygenation with 100% oxygen after hypoxia on inflammation and apoptosis in mice. Eight-week-old mice were either subjected to hypoxia in 8% oxygen for 30 min or air served as controls. Following hypoxia, mice underwent reoxygenation for 30 min with 21% or 100% oxygen. Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), caspase-3 and brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) mRNA study and histopathological study were performed. Reoxygenation with 100% oxygen significantly increased TNF-α (2.5 h after hypoxia), IL-1β (5 h after hypoxia), caspase-3 (8 h after hypoxia) mRNA levels in the whole brain compared with 21% oxygen, and significantly decreased erythropoietin mRNA expression compared with 21% oxygen 9 h after reoxygenation. However, reoxygenation with 100% oxygen and 21% oxygen significantly decreased BDNF mRNA levels compared with control air group. There were no clear abnormal findings showing neuronal death among the three groups. Reoxygenation with 100% oxygen after hypoxia induced inflammation and apoptosis in adult mice. Therefore, these results suggest that the reoxygenation with 100% oxygen after hypoxia has harmful effects on adult brain as well as on neonatal brain.

(Summary) Increased proteinuria causes tubulointerstitial injury due to inflammation in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Iron restriction exhibits protective effects against renal dysfunction; however, its effects against protein overload-induced tubulointerstitial damage remain unclear. Here, we investigated dietary iron restriction effect on tubulointerstitial damage in mice with protein-overload tubulointerstitial injury. Renal tubulointerstitial injury in animal model was induced by intraperitoneal injection of an overdose of bovine serum albumin (BSA). We divided mice into three groups: normal saline + normal diet (ND), BSA + ND, and BSA + iron-restricted diet (IRD). BSA overload induced renal tubulointerstitial injury in the ND mice, which was ameliorated in the IRD mice. Inflammatory cytokines and extracellular matrix mRNA expression was upregulated in BSA + ND mice kidneys and was inhibited by IRD. BSA-induced increase in renal superoxide production, NADPH oxidase activity, and p22(phox) expression was diminished in the IRD mice. IRD suppression increased BSA-induced renal macrophage infiltration. Moreover, BSA mice exhibited nucleotide-binding oligomerisation domain-like receptor pyrin domain-containing protein (NLRP) inflammasome activation, which was inhibited by IRD. Ferrous iron increased in kidneys with BSA overload and was inhibited by IRD. Thus, iron restriction inhibited oxidative stress and inflammatory changes, contributing to the protective effect against BSA overload-induced tubulointerstitial injury.

(Summary) In chemotherapy, the full round of treatment must be completed as scheduled to achieve the strongest therapeutic effect. However, peripheral neuropathy, a severe side effect of the chemotherapeutic agent paclitaxel, can force the premature discontinuation of treatment. As some kampo practitioners have suggested that it may be possible to counteract such side effects, we analyzed the effects of Kamishoyosan, Shakuyakukanzoto, and Goshajinkigan in an in vitro model of paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy. Paclitaxel-treated PC12 cells were assessed for neurite length and performed Western blot analysis for growth-associated protein-43 (GAP-43) and light neurofilament protein (NF-L) levels in the presence of nerve growth factor (NGF); they were re-assessed, with additional testing for acetylcholinesterase levels, after application of one of the kampo. We also compared phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (Erk)1/2 and Akt via Western blot analysis. About effect of kampo to anticancer efficacy, we confirmed cell cytotoxicity in A549 cells using MTT assay. Addition of Kamishoyosan or Shakuyakukanzoto, but not Goshajinkigan, significantly improved neurite length and GAP-43 and NF-L levels from paclitaxel-treated PC12 cells, relative to those of only NGF-treated PC12 cells. The promoting effect of Kamishoyosan and Shakuyakukanzoto in neurite outgrowth is confirmed when NGF promoted neurite outgrowth, and it was inhibited partially when Erk1/2 and Akt were blocked by Erk1/2 inhibitor or Akt inhibitor alone. Furthermore, neurite outgrowth induced by TJ24 and TJ68 was inhibited more strongly when Erk1/2 inhibitor and Akt inhibitor were treated at the same time. NGF with Kamishoyosan or Shakuyakukanzoto promoted the proportion of phosphorylated Erk1/2 and phosphorylated Akt compare with NGF only. On the other hand, Kamishoyosan or Shakuyakukanzoto didn't influence cytotoxicity of paclitaxel in A549 cells. Kamishoyosan or Shakuyakukanzoto promotes neurite outgrowth with NGF via increasing the proportion of phosphorylated Erk1/2 and phosphorylated Akt in PC12 cells. The effect applies to recovery from paclitaxel-induced axonal involvement and might promote recovery from paclitaxel-induced neuropathy without influence of anticancer effect of paclitaxel.

Koyama Satoshi, Matsunaga Shinji, Masaki Imanishi, Yoichi Maekawa, Kitano Hiroya, Takeuchi Hiromi and Shuhei Tomita : Tumour blood vessel normalisation by prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor repaired sensitivity to chemotherapy in a tumour mouse model, Scientific Reports, Vol.7, 45621, 2017. (Summary) Blood vessels are important tissue structures that deliver oxygen and nutrition. In tumour tissue, abnormal blood vessels, which are hyperpermeable and immature, are often formed; these tissues also have irregular vascularisation and intravasation. This situation leads to hypoperfusion in tumour tissue along with low oxygen and nutrition depletion; this is also called the tumour microenvironment and is characterised by hypoxia, depleted nutrition, low pH and high interstitial pressure. This environment induces resistance to anticancer drugs, which causes an increase in anticancer drug doses, leading to increased side effects. We hypothesised that normalised tumour blood vessels would improve tumour tissue perfusion, resupply nutrition and re-oxygenate the tumour tissue. Chemotherapy would then be more effective and cause a decrease in anticancer drug doses. Here we report a neovascularisation-inducing drug that improved tumour vascular abnormalities, such as low blood flow, blood leakage and abnormal vessel structure. These results could lead to not only an increased chemo-sensitivity and tissue-drug distribution but also an up-regulated efficiency for cancer chemotherapy. This suggests that tumour blood vessel normalisation therapy accompanied by angiogenesis may be a novel strategy for cancer therapy.

(Summary) Treatment with antipsychotic drugs has been associated with hyperprolactinemia. The same antipsychotic drugs have also been associated with side effects such as menstruation disorders. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of hyperprolactinemia and menstruation disorders in women undergoing antipsychotic treatment. We performed a retrospective chart review study of psychiatric patients who underwent laboratory testing for serum prolactin (PRL) level between March 2011 and March 2015 in Ehime University Hospital. Patients presenting with and without menstruation disorders were evaluated to determine if they presented concomitant hyperprolactinemia. Patients with menstrual disorders had a significant increase in serum PRL level with a mean of approximately 90 ng/mL. Those with menstrual disorders presented increased PRL levels by 2-fold that of patients without menstrual disorder. However, there was no significant difference in the equivalent dose of chlorpromazine between these two groups. Additionally, about 70% of patients with menstrual disorders received risperidone treatment. The receiver operating characteristic curve showed that the optimal cutoff point of serum PRL level associated with the development of menstrual disorders was 60 ng/mL. Based on these results, we concluded that patients with menstrual disorders presented increased serum PRL, and that most of them underwent treatment with risperidone.

(Summary) The purpose of this study was to determine the role of smooth muscle cell-derived hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (Hif-1α) in the pathogenesis of aortic aneurysms. Control mice and smooth muscle cell-specific hypoxia-inducible factor-1α-deficient mice were infused with β-aminopropionitrile for 2 weeks and angiotensin II for 6 weeks to induce aortic aneurysm formation. Mutant mice experienced increased levels of aneurysm formation of the thoracic or abdominal aorta with more severe elastin disruption, compared with control mice. Smooth muscle cell-specific hypoxia-inducible factor-1α deficiency did not affect matrix metalloproteinase-2 activity; however, the activity of lysyl oxidase and the levels of tropoelastin mRNA in the angiotensin II- and β-aminopropionitrile-treated aortae, associated with elastin fiber formation, were suppressed. Furthermore, we observed reduced volumes of mature cross-linked elastin in the thoracoabdominal aorta after treatment with angiotensin II and β-aminopropionitrile. Deficiency of smooth muscle cell-derived hypoxia-inducible factor-1α augments aortic aneurysms, accompanied by disruption of elastin fiber formation, but not changes of elastin fiber degradation.

(Summary) Vascular remodelling is mediated by vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) proliferation and hypertrophy, both processes of which are linked to medial thickening and fibrosis. Here, we show that hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (Hif-1α) expressed in smooth muscle cells (SMCs) is involved in angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced vascular remodelling in an in vivo model. To clarify the role of Hif-1α in vascular remodelling, we created mice lacking the Hif-1α gene in SMCs (SMKO mice). Ang II infusion induced medial thickening and vascular fibrosis, accompanied by Hif-1α up-regulation, in the aortae of control mice, but not in those of SMKO mice. In accordance with those results, our in vitro studies showed that the deletion of SMC-derived Hif-1α suppressed the Ang II-induced hypertrophy of VSMCs, and our in vivo studies showed that the Ang II-induced expression of fibrosis-related genes in aortae was suppressed by SMC-specific Hif-1α deficiency. In addition, the SMC-specific Hif-1α deficiency suppressed Ang II-induced macrophage infiltration and Ang II-induced expression of inflammation-related genes in aortae. The superoxide production observed in the aortae of control mice with Ang II was suppressed in those of SMKO mice with Ang II, and this finding was consistent with the results of little Ang II-induced c-Src phosphorylation in SMKO mouse aortae. Loss- and gain-of-function analysis in in vitro experiments confirmed that VSMC-derived Hif-1α functions as an intrinsic modulator of vascular remodelling-related gene expression. Our results revealed that SMC-derived Hif-1α is a crucial mediator of Ang II-induced vascular remodelling.

(Summary) The hypoxia-inducible factors HIF-1α or HIF-2α form heterodimeric complexes with the aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator (ARNT). HIF-1α/ARNT and HIF-2α/ARNT complexes activate hypoxia-inducible genes that play critical roles in angiogenesis, anaerobic metabolism, and other processes in response to O2 deprivation. HIF-2α is known to regulate the function and/or differentiation of stem cells by activating the POU domain transcription factor Oct4; however, the precise underlying mechanism is unknown. This study examined the role of HIF-2α/ARNT in hair development using conditional-knockout mice, in which Arnt was specifically deleted in keratinocytes. In wild-type mice, HIF-2α and ARNT were highly expressed in the precortex above the hair matrix, an area containing differentiating stem cells. An analysis of hair size and type in these mice showed that loss of ARNT decreased the production of zigzag hairs, corresponding to reduced expression of HIF-2α and induction of the mammalian cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors p21(Waf1/Cip1) and p27 (Kip1). The results suggest that the HIF-2α/ARNT complex regulates hair follicle differentiation via induction of p21(Waf1/Cip1) and possibly p27(Kip1), as p27(Kip1) expression was not altered in ARNT knockout mice. The findings provide insight into a possible mechanism underlying hair growth disorders and can be useful for future studies on hair follicle response to insults, such as chemotherapy and ionizing radiation.-Imamura, Y., Tomita, S., Imanishi, M., Kihira, Y., Ikeda, Y., Ishizawa, K., Tsuchiya, K., Tamaki, T.

(Summary) Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is the major cause of end-stage renal failure. Oxidative stress is implicated in the pathogenesis of DN. Nitrosonifedipine (NO-NIF) is a weak calcium channel blocker that is converted from nifedipine under light exposure. Recently, we reported that NO-NIF has potential as a novel antioxidant with radical scavenging abilities and has the capacity to treat vascular dysfunction by exerting an endothelial protective effect. In the present study, we extended these findings by evaluating the efficacy of NO-NIF against DN and by clarifying the mechanisms of its antioxidative effect. In a model of type 2 DN (established in KKAy mice), NO-NIF administration reduced albuminuria and proteinuria as well as glomerular expansion without affecting glucose metabolism or systolic blood pressure. NO-NIF also suppressed renal and systemic oxidative stress and decreased the expression of intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1, a marker of endothelial cell injury, in the glomeruli of the KKAy mice. Similarly, NO-NIF reduced albuminuria, oxidative stress, and ICAM-1 expression in endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) knockout mice. Moreover, NO-NIF suppressed urinary angiotensinogen (AGT) excretion and intrarenal AGT protein expression in proximal tubular cells in the KKAy mice. On the other hand, hyperglycemia-induced mitochondrial superoxide production was not attenuated by NO-NIF in cultured endothelial cells. These findings suggest that NO-NIF prevents the progression of type 2 DN associated with endothelial dysfunction through selective antioxidative effects.

(Summary) Nifedipine is unstable under light and decomposes to a stable nitroso analog, nitrosonifedipine (NO-NIF). The ability of NO-NIF to block calcium channels is quite weak compared with that of nifedipine. Recently, we have demonstrated that NO-NIF reacts with unsaturated fatty acid leading to generate NO-NIF radical, which acquires radical scavenging activity. However, the effects of NO-NIF on the pathogenesis related with oxidative stress, such as atherosclerosis and hypertension, are unclear. In this study, we investigated the effects of NO-NIF on angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced vascular remodeling. Ang II-induced thickening and fibrosis of aorta were inhibited by NO-NIF in mice. NO-NIF decreased reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the aorta and urinary 8-hydroxy-20-deoxyguanosine. Ang II-stimulated mRNA expressions of p22(phox), CD68, F4/80, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, and collagen I in the aorta were inhibited by NO-NIF. Moreover, NO-NIF inhibited Ang II-induced cell migration and proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). NO-NIF reduced Ang II-induced ROS to the control level detected by dihydroethidium staining and lucigenin chemiluminescence assay in VSMCs. NO-NIF suppressed phosphorylations of Akt and epidermal growth factor receptor induced by Ang II. However, NO-NIF had no effects on intracellular Ca(2+) increase and protein kinase C-δ phosphorylation induced by Ang II in VSMCs. The electron paramagnetic resonance spectra indicated the continuous generation of NO-NIF radical of reaction with cultured VSMCs. These findings suggest that NO-NIF improves Ang II-induced vascular remodeling via the attenuation of oxidative stress.

(Summary) Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) is known to involve the progression of renal dysfunction through its cytotoxicity and proinflammatory effects such as the induction of intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1 expression in vascular endothelial cells (ECs). Olmesartan, one of the angiotensin II type 1 receptor blockers (ARBs), has been reported to show protective effects on injured ECs by some causal factors of renal disorder other than angiotensin II. However, the effects of olmesartan on TNF-α-induced glomerular EC damage have not been investigated. In the present study, we investigated the effects of RNH-6270, an active metabolite of olmesartan, on TNF-α-induced human glomerular EC (HGEC) damage to clarify the renoprotective mechanisms of ARBs. Cultured HGECs were stimulated by TNF-α, and then cell viability and cytotoxicity were measured by MTT assay and lactate dehydrogenase release assay, respectively. TNF-α-induced oxidative stress was estimated by dihydroethidium assay and lucigenin chemiluminescence assay. ICAM-1 expression and the phosphorylations of mitogen-activated protein kinases were measured using Western blotting assay. RNH-6270 suppressed cell death and the increase in ICAM-1 expression induced by TNF-α via the inhibition of reactive oxygen species in HGECs. Our findings suggested that olmesartan might have protective effects against TNF-α-induced glomerular EC dysfunction.

(Summary) Recent studies have shown that the cellular immune response to the hypoxic microenvironment constructed by vascular remodeling development modulates the resulting pathologic alterations. A major mechanism mediating adaptive responses to reduced oxygen availability is the regulation of transcription by hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1). Impairment of HIF-1-dependent inflammatory responses in T cells causes an augmented vascular remodeling induced by arterial injury, which is shown as prominent neointimal hyperplasia and increase in infiltration of inflammatory cells at the adventitia in mice lacking Hif-1α specifically in T cells. Studies to clarify the mechanism of augmented vascular remodeling in the mutant mice have shown enhanced production of cytokines in activated T cells and augmented antibody production in response to a T-dependent antigen in the mutant mice. This minireview shows that HIF-1α in T cells plays a crucial role in vascular inflammation and remodeling in response to cuff injury as a negative regulator of the T cell-mediated immune response and suggests potential new therapeutic strategies that target HIF-1α.

(Summary) Heart failure results from various physiological and pathological stimuli that lead to cardiac hypertrophy. This pathological process is common in several cardiovascular diseases and ultimately leads to heart failure. The development of cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure involves reprogramming of gene expression, a process that is highly dependent on epigenetic regulation. Histone acetylation is dynamically regulated by cardiac stress. Histone acetyltransferases play an important role in epigenetic remodeling in cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure. The regulation of histone acetyltransferases serves as a bridge between signal transduction and downstream gene reprogramming. Investigating the changes in histone acetyltransferases and histone modification sites in cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure will provide new therapeutic strategies to treat these diseases. This review summarizes the association of histone acetylation sites and histone acetylases with cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure, with emphasis on histone acetylation sites.

(Summary) New applications of approved clinically used drugs are being discovered. Drug repositioning is a proposed strategy for developing these drugs as therapeutic agents for different diseases. Currently, approximately 2000 drugs are used in Japan. However, the compound targets and pathways involved in the pharmacological actions of 70-80% of these drugs have not been adequately clarified. Pharmacological examination of approved drugs is an important task in drug repositioning and vital for improving drug development efficiency. This review reports that angiotensin II type 1 receptor blockers show receptor-independent effects against reactive oxygen species generation in renal cells. Additionally, nitrosonifedipine has an antioxidative effect and protects endothelial cells against oxidative stress, and pioglitazone has multiple effects that improve dysfunctions in vascular control regulated by adrenergic and calcitonin gene-related peptide-containing nerves in animal models of diabetes. These data suggest that some approved drugs could be useful for treating cardiorenal diseases. Since cardiorenal diseases are likely to have chronic pathological conditions and require chronic drug administration, highly safe drugs are needed. Compared to newly developed drugs, drug repositioning of approved drugs with safety information is considered a particularly useful technique for searching new treatments for cardiorenal diseases. J.

(Summary) Approximately 100000 people suffer cardiopulmonary arrest in Japan every year, and the aging of society means that this number is expected to increase. Worldwide, approximately 100 million develop cardiac arrest annually, making it an international issue. Although survival has improved thanks to advances in cardiopulmonary resuscitation, there is a high rate of postresuscitation encephalopathy after the return of spontaneous circulation, and the proportion of patients who can return to normal life is extremely low. Treatment for postresuscitation encephalopathy is long term, and if sequelae persist then nursing care is required, causing immeasurable economic burdens as a result of ballooning medical costs. As at present there is no drug treatment to improve postresuscitation encephalopathy as a complication of cardiopulmonary arrest, the development of novel drug treatments is desirable. In recent years, new efficacy for existing drugs used in the clinical setting has been discovered, and drug repositioning has been proposed as a strategy for developing those drugs as therapeutic agents for different diseases. This review describes a large-scale database study carried out following a discovery strategy for drug repositioning with the objective of improving survival rates after cardiopulmonary arrest and discusses future repositioning prospects.

(Summary) Oxidative stress is a key factor involved in the pathogenesis and progression of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Reactive oxygen species (ROS), produced as a result of redox reactions in various cells, have been recognized as key chemical mediators causing cellular damage and organ dysfunction in CVD and CKD. Nifedipine, a well-known calcium channel blocker, is extremely sensitive to light which gets converted to its nitroso analog, nitrosonifedipine (NO-NIF) in the presence of ultraviolet and visible light. The so formed NO-NIF blocks calcium channel quite weakly compared to that of nifedipine. However, we elucidated for the first time that NO-NIF is converted to NO-NIF radical which acquires extremely strong antioxidant property via reaction with unsaturated fatty acid or endothelial cells. We have already reported that NO-NIF reduces the cytotoxicity of cumene hydroperoxide, which hampers the integrity of cell membrane through oxidative stress, in endothelial cells. Additionally, we demonstrated that NO-NIF restored acetylcholine-responsive vascular relaxation and suppressed intercellular adhesion molecule-1 expression in the aorta of N(ω)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester-treated rats, a model of vascular endothelial dysfunction. Recently, we reported that NO-NIF ameliorates angiotensin II-induced vascular remodeling via antioxidative effects in vivo and in vitro. These observations point towards the plausible, unique role of NO-NIF as a novel antioxidant which improves vascular dysfunction for overcoming CVD and CKD and the same has been highlighted in this review.

Studies to clarify the mechanism of augmented vascular remodeling in the mutant mice have shown enhanced production of cytokines in activated T cells and augmented antibody production in response to a T-dependent antigen in the mutant mice. This minireview shows that HIF‐1α in T cells plays a crucial role in vascular inflammation and remodeling in response to cuff injury as a negative regulator of the T cell-mediated immune response and suggests potential new therapeutic strategies that target HIF‐1α.
