Activated monocytes/macrophages promote glomerular injury, including crescent formation, in anti-glomerular basement membrane (GBM) glomerulonephritis. Disulfiram, an alcohol-aversion drug, inhibits monocyte/macrophage migration by inhibiting FROUNT, a cytosolic protein that enhances chemokine receptor signaling. Our study found that disulfiram at a human equivalent dose successfully blocked albuminuria and crescent formation with podocyte loss, and later stage kidney fibrotic lesions, in a rat model of anti-GBM glomerulonephritis. A disulfiram derivative, DSF-41, with more potent FROUNT inhibition activity, inhibited glomerulonephritis at a lower dose than disulfiram. Disulfiram markedly reduced the number of monocytes or macrophages at the early stage of glomerulonephritis and that of CD3+ and CD8+ lymphocytes at the established stage. Impaired pseudopodia formation was observed in the glomerular monocytes/macrophages of the disulfiram group; consistent with the in vitro observation that disulfiram blocked chemokine-dependent pseudopodia formation and chemotaxis of bone marrow-derived monocytes/macrophages. Furthermore, disulfiram suppressed macrophage activation as revealed by reduced expression of inflammatory cytokines and chemokines (TNF-α, CCL2, and CXCL9) and reduced CD86 and MHC class II expressions in monocytes/macrophages during glomerulonephritis. The dramatic reduction in monocyte/macrophage number might have resulted from disulfiram suppression of both the chemotactic response of monocytes/macrophages and their subsequent activation to produce cytokines and chemokines, which further recruit monocytes. Additionally, FROUNT was expressed in CD68+ monocytes/macrophages infiltrating the crescentic glomeruli in human anti-GBM glomerulonephritis. Thus, disulfiram can be a highly effective and safe drug for the treatment of glomerulonephritis by blocking the chemotactic responses of monocytes/macrophages and their activation status in the glomerulus.

Abstract

Malignant granular cell tumors (GCTs) account for less than 2% of all GCTs and mainly occur in the deep soft tissue of the thigh or trunk. Malignant GCTs are highly aggressive tumors with high rates of recurrence and metastasis. In this brief report, we describe a rare case of malignant GCT in a 64‐year‐old Japanese man who presented with a 14 × 20 cm mass in the left inguinal region. The cytologic findings of fine‐needle aspiration (FNA) revealed atypical epithelial‐like granular cells with granular substance in the background, which was difficult to differentiate from apocrine carcinoma or melanoma. The immunohistochemistry (IHC) findings of the needle biopsy revealed that the tumor cells were positive for S‐100 and lysosomal marker CD68 which was suggestive of a GCT. However, the presence of crush artifacts made it challenging to identify cellular atypia, which is a characteristic of malignant tumor. Taken together, the FNA and needle biopsy results were suggestive of malignant GCT. The importance of preoperative diagnosis of malignant GCT is well known, but few reports have described its cytological findings. In our brief report, we show that combining cytological FNA and biopsy findings with IHC findings achieves an accurate diagnosis of malignant GCT.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA)-associated interstitial lung disease (ILD), a primary cause of mortality in patients with RA, has limited treatment options. A previously established RA model in D1CC transgenic mice aberrantly expressed major histocompatibility complex class II genes in joints, developing collagen II-induced polyarthritis and anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies and interstitial pneumonitis, similar to those in humans. Molecular hydrogen (H2 ) is an efficient antioxidant that permeates cell membranes and alleviates the reactive oxygen species-induced injury implicated in RA pathogenesis. We used D1CC mice to analyse chronic lung fibrosis development and evaluate H2 treatment effects. We injected D1CC mice with type II collagen and supplied them with H2 -rich or control water until analysis. Increased serum surfactant protein D values and lung densities images were observed 10 months after injection. Inflammation was patchy within the perilymphatic stromal area, with increased 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine-positive cell numbers and tumour necrosis factor-α, BAX, transforming growth factor-β, interleukin-6 and soluble collagen levels in the lungs. Inflammatory and fibrotic changes developed diffusely within the perilymphatic stromal area, as observed in humans. H2 treatment decreased these effects in the lungs. Thus, this model is valuable for studying the effects of H2 treatment and chronic interstitial pneumonia pathophysiology in humans. H2 appears to protect against RA-ILD by alleviating oxidative stress.

The occurrence of osteoclast-like giant cells (OLGCs) in uterine leiomyosarcomas (LMSs) is a rare phenomenon. The nature of OLGCs and the significance of their accumulation in these tumors are poorly understood. Recent studies revealed that the formation of osteoclasts requires a specific cytokine, receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand (RANKL), in bone. In this study, we investigated the expression of RANKL in 2 cases of uterine LMS with OLGCs by means of immunohistochemistry and compared the extent of RANKL expression with that in conventional uterine LMSs and leiomyomas by using real-time reverse-transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Our cases of uterine LMS with OLGCs showed markedly high expression of RANKL messenger RNA with clear RANKL immunoreactivity compared with messenger RNA expression and immunoreactivity of conventional uterine LMSs and leiomyomas. These findings suggest that the tumors producing RANKL may account for accumulation of OLGCs in tumor tissue because of RANKL-related osteoclastogenesis. (C) 2015 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Survivin, an inhibitor of apoptosis, regulates cell division and is a potential target for anticancer drugs because many cancers express high survivin levels. However, whether survivin would be toxic to human lung cells and tissues has not been determined. This report clarified the involvement of survivin in acute lung injury. We used immunohistochemical analysis, immunoelectron microscopy, and real-time reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction to study survivin expression and localization in injured mouse and human lungs. We also used cultured human lung epithelial cells (BEAS-2B and A549) to study survivin cytoprotection. Nuclei and cytoplasm of epithelial cells in day 3 and day 7 models of bleomycin-injured lung showed survivin-positive results, which is consistent with upregulated survivin nnRNA expression. These nuclei also evidenced double positive findings for proliferating cell nuclear antigen and survivin. Day 7 models had similar Smac/DIABLO-positive and survivin-positive cell distributions. The cytoplasm and nuclei of epithelial cells in lesions with diffuse alveolar damage manifested strong survivin-positive findings. Bleomycin stimulation in both epithelial cell lines upregulated expression of survivin and apoptosis-related molecules. Suppression of survivin expression with small interfering RNA rendered human lung epithelial cells susceptible to bleomycin-induced damage, with markedly upregulated activation of caspase-3, caspase-7, poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase, and lactate dehydrogenase activity and an increased number of dead cells compared with mock small interfering RNA-treated cells. Overexpression of survivin via transfection resulted in these epithelial cells being resistant to bleomycin-induced cell damage, with reduced activation of apoptosis-related molecules and lactate dehydrogenase activity and fewer dead cells compared with results for mock-transfected cells. Survivin, acting at the epithelial cell level that depends partly on apoptosis inhibition, is therefore a key mediator of cytoprotection in acute lung injury. Understanding the precise role of survivin in normal lung cells is required for the development of therapeutic survivin.

The mucin-rich variant of salivary duct carcinoma (mSDC) is a rare type of salivary duct carcinoma. mSDC usually has both conventional SDC and mucinous adenocarcinoma-like areas. This article describes a first case of mSDC in which 95% of the tumor consisted of a mucinous area without no solid conventional SDC, so that the tumor mimicked mucinous adenocarcinoma. A 55-year-old man was evaluated for a 14 mm mass in the left submandibular gland. The tumor showed that floating tumor nests in a prominent mucinous lake. Some floating tumor nests had focal cribriform pattern with comedo necrosis, and all tumor cells had immunoreactivity for androgen receptor, gross cystic disease fluid protein 15, and Her-2/neu. A diagnosis of mSDC was rendered. mSDC with prominent mucinous component sometimes resembles mucinous adenocarcinoma. Identifying specific histological and immunohistochemical features of floating tumor nests in the mucinous area are important for the diagnosis.

Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is one of the life-threatening hepatic diseases
however, its pathogenesis is still unknown. To evaluate the causative role of hyperlipidaemia and high-fat diet, we compared C57BL/6 mice with inherited hyperlipidaemic model mice (LDLR-/- mice and ApoE -/- mice) fed a normal or a high-fat diet. LDLR-/- and ApoE-/- mice fed the normal diet showed significantly higher serum cholesterol level than that of C57BL/6 mice fed the high-fat diet. These mice, however, have shown neither significant elevation of serum alanine transaminase (ALT) level nor histopathologic features of steatohepatitis. High-fat diet groups of all three strains showed histopathological characteristics of steatohepatitis with elevated serum ALT levels and high expression of macrophage scavenger receptor MARCO mRNA in the liver. Semi-quantitative endotoxin analysis showed an elevated serum endotoxin level in the portal vein but not in the vena cava in ApoE-/- mice fed the high-fat diet. These results indicate that long-term feeding of a high-fat diet induces NASH, whereas hyperlipidaemia alone is not enough to induce NASH. Liver-restricted induction of MARCO in mice with high-fat diet and portal endotoxaemia in ApoE -/- mice fed the high-fat diet suggest the possible involvement of endotoxin in the pathogenesis of NASH.

Anti-N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis is an autoimmune encephalitis, and 46% of women with anti-NMDAR encephalitis have tumors, of which 94% are ovarian teratomas. Patients with anti-NMDAR encephalitis rarely have extra-ovarian teratomas, particularly extra-ovarian mature cystic teratomas arising from the retroperitoneum. We herein report a 27-year-old woman who was diagnosed with anti-NMDAR encephalitis caused by a teratoma arising from the retroperitoneum. In patients with anti-NMDAR encephalitis, it is important to perform a systemic search, including for extra-ovarian teratomas. Plasma exchange significantly improved the patient's clinical symptoms.

BACKGROUND: To investigate the impact of Perirenal fat stranding (PRFS) on progression after radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) for renal pelvic urothelial carcinoma (RPUC) without hydronephrosis and to reveal the pathological findings of PRFS. METHODS: Clinicopathological data, including computed tomography (CT) findings of the ipsilateral PRFS, were collected from the medical records of 56 patients treated with RNU for RPUC without hydronephrosis between 2011 and 2021 at our institution. PRFS on CT was classified as either low or high PRFS. The impact of PRFS on progression-free survival (PFS) after RNU was analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test. In addition, specimens including sufficient perirenal fat from patients with low and with high PRFS were pathologically analyzed. Immunohistochemical analysis of CD68, CD163, CD3, and CD20 was also performed. RESULTS: Of the 56 patients, 31(55.4%) and 25 (44.6%) patients were classified as having low and high PRFS, respectively. Within a median follow-up of 40.6 months postoperatively, 11 (19.6%) patients showed disease progression. The Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test revealed that patients with high PRFS had significantly lower PFS rates than those with low PRFS (3-year PFS 69.8% vs 93.3%; p = 0.0393). Pathological analysis revealed that high PRFS specimens (n = 3 patients) contained more fibrous strictures in perirenal fat than low PRFS specimens (n = 3 patients). In addition, M2 macrophages (CD163 +) infiltrating fibrous tissue in perirenal area were observed in all patients with high PRFS group. CONCLUSIONS: PRFS of RPUC without hydronephrosis consists of collagenous fibers with M2 macrophages. The presence of ipsilateral high PRFS might be a preoperative risk factor for progression after RNU for RPUC patients without hydronephrosis. Prospective studies with large cohorts are required in the future.

Abstract

Background

Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) is associated with the pathogenesis of a variety of malignancies, most notably lymphomas. Especially in the background of immunodeficiency, such as primary immunodeficiency disorder (PID) and post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD), the role of EBV might be crucial. PIDs are rare heterogeneous diseases affecting the development and/or the function of the innate and adaptive immune system. Malignancy is the second-highest cause of death after infection, and lymphoma accounts for about half of malignancies. The most frequently reported lymphoma type is diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and the incidence of T-cell lymphoma is rare. PTLDs are also rare serious lymphoid and/or plasmacytic proliferative disorders that occur after undergoing solid organ or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). In the context of HSCT, most reported PTLDs have occurred in patients who received allogenic HSCT, but only a few cases have been reported in autologous HSCT (AutoHSCT) recipients.

Case presentation

A 53-year-old female patient initially presented with enlargement of the left cervical lymph nodes and was diagnosed with EBV-positive DLBCL. She was treated with R-CHOP, R-ACES, and AutoHSCT and went into remission. Four years later, computed tomography results revealed multiple lung nodules and abnormal infiltration, and sustained and progressing hypogammaglobulinemia was observed. The pathological specimen of video-assisted thoracoscopic surgical lung biopsy demonstrated extensive invasion of lymphocytes with notable granuloma findings. Flow cytometric immunophenotyping analysis showed that lymphocytes were positive for CD3 and CD5; especially, CD3 was expressed in the cytoplasm. Southern blot analysis revealed rearrangements of the T-cell receptor Cβ1 gene. She was diagnosed with peripheral T-cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified, accompanied by notable granulomatous lesions.

Conclusion

Here, as a unique case of metachronous B-cell and T-cell lymphoma, we report a rare case of T-cell lymphoma that mainly affected the lungs with the presentation of notable granulomatous findings following AutoHSCT for EBV-positive DLBCL at the age of 53 years. These lung lesions of granulomatous T-cell lymphoma could be related to the underlying primary immunodeficiency background associated with sustained hypogammaglobulinemia.

Although inhibition of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mediated cell signaling by the EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor gefitinib is highly effective against advanced non-small cell lung cancer, this drug might promote severe acute interstitial pneumonia. We previously reported that molecular hydrogen (H2) acts as a therapeutic and preventive anti-oxidant. Here, we show that treatment with H2 effectively protects the lungs of mice from severe damage caused by oral administration of gefitinib after intraperitoneal injection of naphthalene, the toxicity of which is related to oxidative stress. Drinking H2-rich water ad libitum mitigated naphthalene/gefitinib-induced weight loss and significantly improved survival, which was associated with a decrease in lung inflammation and inflammatory cytokines in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. Naphthalene decreased glutathione in the lung, increased malondialdehyde in the plasma, and increased 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal production in airway cells, all of which were mitigated by H2-rich water, indicating that the H2-rich water reverses cellular damage to the bronchial wall caused by oxidative stress. Finally, treatment with H2 did not interfere with the anti-tumor effects of gefitinib on a lung cancer cell line in vitro or on tumor-bearing mice in vivo. These results indicate that H2-rich water has the potential to improve quality of life during gefitinib therapy by mitigating lung injury without impairing anti-tumor activity.

Background: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy has been shown to have benefit in T1 high-grade or T2 bladder cancer. However, neoadjuvant chemotherapy fails in some patients. Careful patient selection for neoadjuvant chemotherapy is therefore needed. Several reports show that Snail is associated with resistance to chemotherapy. We hypothesized that Snail expression could predict survival in T1 high-grade and T2 bladder cancer patients treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
Methods: The participants were 44 patients with T1 high-grade and T2 bladder cancer receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Immunohistochemical analysis was used to determine Snail expression in specimens of bladder cancer obtained by transurethral resection before neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The relationships between Snail expression and patients' outcomes were analyzed.
Results: Snail expression was positive in 15 of the 44 patients (34.1%) and negative in 29 (65.9%). Disease-free survival was significantly shorter for the Snail-positive group than for the Snail-negative group (p = 0.014). In addition, disease-specific survival was also significantly shorter for the Snail-positive group than for the Snail-negative group (p = 0.039). In multivariate analysis, Snail expression level was identified as an independent prognostic factor for disease-specific survival (p = 0.020).
Conclusions: The results indicate that Snail expression may predict poor outcome in T1 high-grade and T2 bladder cancer patients treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Of the idiopathic interstitial pneumonias (IIPs), usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) and diffuse alveolar damage (DAD) usually have poor prognoses. The prognoses of cryptogenic organizing pneumonia (COP) and nonspecific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP) are usually more favorable. Although several reports have described neovascularization in COP and UIP, this aspect of UIP has not been compared with NSIP. In this study, we evaluated neovascularization in intra-alveolar fibrotic lesion of cases of fibrosing NSIP (f-NSIP) (n = 26) and UIP (n = 25). In the f-NSIP group, a considerable degree of neovascularization was observed compared to the UIP group and bud type intra-alveolar fibrosis showed a greater degree of neovascularization compared to the mural-incorporation and obliterative types of intra-alveolar fibrosis. Real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction revealed a significantly greater expression of VEGF-A mRNA in f-NSIP than in UIP. The expression of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) mRNA also showed significantly higher in f-NSIP than UIP. The greater VEGF-A and MMP-2 expression may play a role in the pathogenesis of neovascularization in early intra-alveolar fibrotic lesions in f-NSIP.

An 83-year-old man presented with supraclavicular and mediastinal lymph nodes swelling and elevated serum levels of neuron-specific enolase (NSE), pro-gastrin-releasing peptide (pro-GRP), and cytokeratin fragment (CYFRA). He underwent supraclavicular lymph node dissection. The pathological diagnosis was metastatic lymph node neuroendocrine carcinoma. The initial diagnosis was small cell lung carcinoma c-TxN3M0 III B with an unknown primary site, because fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) had revealed increased uptake in the neck and mediastinal lymphadenopathy, but no significant intrapulmonary uptake. However, computed tomography (CT) of the chest had detected a lesion, which was assumed to be a vessel, in the right lower lung. The patient underwent radiotherapy, and CT of the chest 1 month later revealed a partial response of the lymph nodes. However, at the same time, disease recurred in the skin adjacent to the site of supraclavicular lymph node dissection, and the lesion in the right lower lung enlarged. We suspected that this intrapulmonary lesion was the primary site. Metastasis to cervical and mediastinal lymph nodes from an unknown primary carcinoma is rare, and the primary site should be determined so that appropriate treatment can be performed. If the primary site cannot be determined with the initial examination, regular follow-up examinations with CT, magnetic resonance imaging, and FDG-PET should be performed.<br>

Hydrogen therapy attenuates irradiation-induced lung damage by reducing oxidative stress. Am J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol 301: L415-L426, 2011. First published July 15, 2011; doi: 10.1152/ajplung.00008.2011.-Molecular hydrogen (H-2) is an efficient antioxidant that diffuses rapidly across cell membranes, reduces reactive oxygen species (ROS), such as hydroxyl radicals and peroxynitrite, and suppresses oxidative stress-induced injury in several organs. ROS have been implicated in radiation-induced damage to lungs. Because prompt elimination of irradiation-induced ROS should protect lung tissue from damaging effects of irradiation, we investigated the possibility that H-2 could serve as a radioprotector in the lung. Cells of the human lung epithelial cell line A549 received 10 Gy irradiation with or without H-2 treatment via H-2-rich PBS or medium. We studied the possible radioprotective effects of H-2 by analyzing ROS and cell damage. Also, C57BL/6J female mice received 15 Gy irradiation to the thorax. Treatment groups inhaled 3% H-2 gas and drank H-2-enriched water. We evaluated acute and late-irradiation lung damage after H-2 treatment. H-2 reduced the amount of irradiation-induced ROS in A549 cells, as shown by electron spin resonance and fluorescent indicator signals. H-2 also reduced cell damage, measured as levels of oxidative stress and apoptotic markers, and improved cell viability. Within 1 wk after whole thorax irradiation, immunohistochemistry and immunoblotting showed that H-2 treatment reduced oxidative stress and apoptosis, measures of acute damage, in the lungs of mice. At 5 mo after irradiation, chest computed tomography, Ashcroft scores, and type III collagen deposition demonstrated that H-2 treatment reduced lung fibrosis (late damage). This study thus demonstrated that H-2 treatment is valuable for protection against irradiation lung damage with no known toxicity.
