RESUMO

Improving crop yield potential through an enhanced response to rising atmospheric CO2 levels is an effective strategy for sustainable crop production in the face of climate change. Large-sized panicles (containing many spikelets per panicle) have been a recent ideal plant architecture (IPA) for high-yield rice breeding. However, few breeding programs have proposed an IPA under the projected climate change. Here, we demonstrate through the cloning of the rice (Oryza sativa) quantitative trait locus for MORE PANICLES 3 (MP3) that the improvement in panicle number increases grain yield at elevated atmospheric CO2 levels. MP3 is a natural allele of OsTB1/FC1, previously reported as a negative regulator of tiller bud outgrowth. The temperate japonica allele advanced the developmental process in axillary buds, moderately promoted tillering, and increased the panicle number without negative effects on the panicle size or culm thickness in a high-yielding indica cultivar with large-sized panicles. The MP3 allele, containing three exonic polymorphisms, was observed in most accessions in the temperate japonica subgroups but was rarely observed in the indica subgroup. No selective sweep at MP3 in either the temperate japonica or indica subgroups suggested that MP3 has not been involved and utilized in artificial selection during domestication or breeding. A free-air CO2 enrichment experiment revealed a clear increase of grain yield associated with the temperate japonica allele at elevated atmospheric CO2 levels. Our findings show that the moderately increased panicle number combined with large-sized panicles using MP3 could be a novel IPA and contribute to an increase in rice production under climate change with rising atmospheric CO2 levels.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The intraoperative air leak test is commonly performed during rectal surgery to evaluate anastomotic integrity. However, its drawbacks include occasional difficulties in visualizing the exact point of the leak while maintaining the pelvis under saline, the need for repeat testing to identify the leak point, and a lack of continuous visualization of the leak point. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the feasibility and clinical applicability of using aerosolized indocyanine green, a fluorescent tracer, for detecting rectal anastomotic leakage. DESIGN: Animal preclinical study. SETTING: Animal laboratory at Kagawa University. PATIENTS: Six healthy adult female beagles were included. INTERVENTIONS: An anastomotic leakage model with a single air leak point was created in each dog. Indocyanine green was aerosolized using a nebulizer kit with a stream of carbon dioxide flowing at 1.5 to 2.0 L/min. The aerosol was administered into the rectum transanally, and laparoscopic observations were performed. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Air leak points were observed using a near-infrared fluorescence laparoscope, after which the presence of corresponding indocyanine green fluorescence was verified. RESULTS: Aerosolized indocyanine green was visualized laparoscopically at all anastomosis sites but not elsewhere. The median time from the administration of the aerosol to its visualization was 4.5 seconds. Pathological examinations were performed 4 weeks postsurgery in all dogs, and no histological abnormalities related to aerosolized indocyanine green administration were observed at the anastomosis sites. LIMITATIONS: The leak points were surgically created and did not occur naturally. CONCLUSIONS: Visualization of air leaks at the sites of rectal anastomosis was laparoscopically achievable by administering aerosolized indocyanine green transanally into the rectum in our canine model. This novel fluorescent leak test could be a valid alternative to established methods.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: No protocol for esophagogastroduodenoscopic examination of the duodenum has been established. We examined the feasibility and ability to detect neoplasms of a novel duodenal examination protocol. METHODS: This was a two-facility, prospective, observational study. Our protocol, the Seven Pictures Rule (7PR), requires pictures of the following seven locations: anterior and posterior to the bulb, area of and contralateral to the superior duodenal angle, area of and contralateral to the ampulla, and the transverse duodenum. The primary outcome was rate of completion of 7PR. Secondary outcomes were overall rates of detecting neoplasms, rates of detecting neoplasms for each location, examination time, and completion rates for standard or ultrathin endoscopes. RESULTS: There were 1549 participants. The 7PR completion rate was 81.1% and the detection rates of overall neoplasms, adenomas, and carcinomas were 0.84%, 0.71%, and 0.06%, respectively. The area in which most neoplasms was detected was contralateral to the ampulla (69.2%), and the fewest the transverse duodenum (0%). Mean duration of duodenal examination was 53.1 s. Completion rates for standard vs. ultrathin were 84.4% (1077/1276) vs. 65.6% (179/273) (P < 0.01), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Seven Pictures Rule is acceptable for duodenal examination and a potential quality indicator.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Mucosal defect closure after colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) may prevent post-ESD adverse events. Delayed bleeding is a particular concern in the rectum due to the presence of numerous blood vessels. However, rectal defect closure often fails due to the thick rectal wall. This study aimed to examine the feasibility of our newly developed endoscopic ligation with O-ring closure (E-LOC) for defects after rectal ESD. METHODS: This was a prospective observational study conducted at a single institution. After excluding 2 patients with tumors mostly extending into the anal canal, the study cohort comprised 30 consecutive patients who underwent ESD of rectal neoplasms between July 2020 and July 2021. E-LOC using an endoscopic variceal ligation device was performed for closing mucosal defects after rectal ESD. The primary outcome was the complete closure rate. The secondary outcomes were the delayed bleeding rate, E-LOC procedure time, sustained closure rates on postoperative day (POD) 3, and E-LOC-associated complications. RESULTS: Complete closure of the defect (median defect size 29.0 mm) was successfully achieved in 24 cases (80%). Delayed bleeding occurred in one case with incomplete closure (3.3%). The median E-LOC procedure time was 25.5 min (interquartile range, 20.0-30.0 min). The sustained closure rates were 83.3% (20/24) on POD 3 in the 24 cases with complete closure. No E-LOC-associated complications occurred. DISCUSSION/CONCLUSIONS: E-LOC was feasible for defect closure after rectal ESD, and probably led to a decreased incidence of delayed bleeding.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The recently developed endoscopic full-thickness resection technique requires reliable closure. The main closure methods are the purse-string suture (PSS) technique and over-the-scope clip (OTSC) technique; however, basic data on the closure strength of each technique are lacking. This study was performed to compare the closure strengths of these two methods in an ex vivo porcine model. METHODS: In the traction test, a virtual 5-cm full-thickness closure line was closed by the following six methods three times each: conventional hemoclips, mucosal PSS, seromuscular PSS, mucosal OTSC, seromuscular OTSC, and surgical suture. The primary endpoint was the tension at the starting point of dehiscence, measured in Newtons (N) by an automatic traction machine. In the leak test, a 15-mm gastric full-thickness defect was closed by PSS or OTSC six times each, and the closed stomach was then pressurized in a water container. The primary endpoint was the leak pressure when air bubbles appeared. The secondary endpoints were the procedure time and presence of complete inverted closure. RESULTS: The mean tension was 2.16, 3.68, 5.15, 18.30, 19.30, and 62.40 N for conventional hemoclips, mucosal PSS, seromuscular PSS, mucosal OTSC, seromuscular OTSC, and surgical suture, respectively. Complete inverted closure was observed for seromuscular PSS, seromuscular OTSC, and surgical suture. The mean leak pressure was 13.7 and 24.8 mmHg in the PSS and OTSC group, respectively (P < 0.01). The mean procedure time was 541 and 169 s in the PSS and OTSC group, respectively (P < 0.01). Complete inverted closure was observed in OTSC alone. CONCLUSION: The OTSC, which allows complete inverted closure, showed greater closure strength than PSS. Considering the size limitation suitable for single OTSC, a therapeutic strategy for closing the larger size is further warranted.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: We examined the efficacy of a novel endoscopic ligation technique with O-ring closure (E-LOC) to prevent bleeding after gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) under antithrombotic therapy. METHODS: This single-center prospective study involved consecutive patients who were taking antithrombotic agents and underwent gastric ESD. E-LOC was performed by anchoring the nylon loop with hemoclips on both defect edges and/or the exposed muscle layer, and using O-ring band ligation around these deployed clips. The primary outcome was post-ESD bleeding rate. Secondary outcomes were complete closure rate, procedure time, sustained closure rate, and complications. RESULTS: 48 patients were finally analyzed. The post-ESD bleeding rate was 0 %, the complete closure rate was 97.9 %, and the mean closure time was 29.9 minutes. The sustained closure rate was 95.8 % at postoperative day 2-3 and 33.3 % at postoperative day 10-11. No complications occurred. CONCLUSION: E-LOC may be an effective option for closing mucosal defects after gastric ESD under antithrombotic therapy. However, the preventive effect on post-ESD bleeding should be further investigated in high risk groups.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The Over-The-Scope Clip (OTSC) can effectively treat refractory gastrointestinal diseases. However, most reports have focused on short-term effectiveness. We examined clinical outcomes of the deployed clips and long-term characteristics. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Of 47 patients with OTSC treatment, 35 with follow-up periods of ≥3 months were retrospectively examined. The indications were 11 bleedings, 17 perforations, and seven fistulas. The observation period was defined as medium-term (3 to <12 months) or long-term (≥12 months). The primary outcome was the clinical success rate without disease recurrence. The secondary outcomes were the complication rate, survival duration, and clip retention rate. RESULTS: The medium- and long-term clinical success rates were 100% during the observation period (median, 44 months; range, 3-78 months). The complication rate was 2.9% (n = 1). The median survival time was 1,634 days for bleeding, 1,757 days for perforation, and 444 days for fistulas. The overall clip retention rates were 56.4%, 38.1%, 30.9%, and 25.9% after one, six, and 12 months and at the final follow-up, respectively. The average clip retention duration was 244 days in bleeding, 656 days in perforations, and 188 days in fistulas. CONCLUSIONS: Regardless of clip detachment, the OTSC can be effective in long-term.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The management of postoperative bleeding, after gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), has become particularly important because of the recent increase in antithrombotic use. Endoscopic shielding with polyglycolic acid (PGA) sheets has been shown to be effective. However, shrinkage and early displacement of the sheet remain challenges. This study aimed to determine the efficacy and safety of our developed method, named wafer paper and ring-mounted PGA sheet (WaRP). MATERIAL AND METHODS: Twenty-four patients with antithrombotic uptake who underwent the WaRP method following gastric ESD were retrospectively examined. This involved the delivery of a PGA sheet wrapped in wafer paper with ring-thread, and its fixation on the gastric floor using hemoclips. The primary outcome was the technical success rate of the WaRP, and several secondary outcomes were evaluated. RESULTS: The technical success rate of WaRP was 100%. The procedure lasted a mean of 10.5 min (SD 6.7 min). The prevalence of complete retention at follow-up endoscopy was 83.3% (20/24). There were no WaRP-associated complications, but post-ESD hemorrhage occurred in two patients undergoing hemodialysis (8.3%). CONCLUSIONS: The WaRP method is a simple and reliable means of PGA sheet delivery and placement that reduces the incidence of post-ESD hemorrhage.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The Over-the-scope clip (OTSC) has been recently introduced for multiple purposes, including refractory bleeding, perforation, fistula, and anastomotic dehiscence of the gastrointestinal tract. However, no easy access techniques for delivering OTSCs to distant sites have been described. Therefore, we have developed a simple and safe guidewire-assisted OTSC delivery (GOD) method for use on the distal intestine. This study aimed to investigate the technical feasibility and safety of the method. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Between June 2018 and April 2019, all eight patients who underwent the GOD method were retrospectively examined. The primary outcome was the successful rate of OTSC delivery to the lesion without complications. The secondary outcomes were GOD procedure time, total procedure time, technical and clinical OTSC success rates, and GOD- and OTSC-associated complications. RESULTS: The rate of successful OTSC delivery was 100%. The median procedure time of GOD was 21 min (range 8-29). The median total procedure time was 38.5 min (range 26-41). The technical and clinical success rates of OTSC were 100% and 75% (6/8), respectively. No GOD- or OTSC-associated complications occurred. CONCLUSIONS: The GOD method is a feasible and safe technique for delivering OTSC toward the small and proximal large intestine.

RESUMO

The heading date is an important trait for determining regional and climatic adaptability in rice. To expand the adaptability of the indica rice cultivar 'IR64', we pyramided multiple early or late heading quantitative trait locus (QTLs) in the 'IR64' genetic background by crossing previously developed near-isogenic lines (NILs) with a single QTL for early or late heading. The effects of pyramiding QTLs were observed in three different climatic zones of the Philippines, Madagascar, and Japan. The early heading pyramiding lines (PYLs) headed 6.2 to 12.8 days earlier than 'IR64' while the late heading PYLs headed 18.8 to 27.1 days later than 'IR64'. The PYLs tended to produce low grain yield compared to 'IR64'. The low yield was not improved by combining SPIKE, which is a QTL that increases the number of spikelets per panicle. Conversely, 'IR64-PYL(7+10)' carrying Hd5 and Hd1 headed earlier, produced more tillers, and more panicles per m2 than 'IR64', and mitigated the yield decrease in early heading. These results suggest that the effects of pyramided QTLs on heading date were consistent across various environments and PYLs could be used to enhance the adaptation of 'IR64' in other rice growing environments.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Endoscopic submucosal tunnel dissection (ESTD) has recently been an effective procedure for resecting large early esophageal neoplasm. However, excessive dissection beyond the distal limit may occur because the prepared distal end often cannot be distinguished through the tunnel. This study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of a novel crystal violet navigation (CVN) for identifying the distal end. MATERIAL AND METHODS: In the observational case series study, all 22 patients who underwent esophageal ESTD using the CVN were included. When setting the distal end, the distal incision line was dyed purple using a crystal violet solution. The rates of purple color identified via the tunnel, successful tunnel penetration without extra dissection, en bloc and curative resection, procedure time for ESTD and CVN, and procedure-associated complications were evaluated. RESULTS: The rates of purple color and successful tunnel penetration were both 100%. En bloc and curative resection were 100%, and 86%, respectively. The mean total procedure time was 103.9 ± 46.2 (mean ± SD) minutes, while the mean time for the CVN was 14.1 ± 3.44 s. No complications were observed. CONCLUSIONS: The simple CVN method can be a navigation tool for identifying the distal end during the ESTD procedure.

RESUMO

A man in his thirties was admitted to the hospital because of upper abdominal pain. Computed tomography showed intussusception in the ascending and transverse colon. After spontaneous discontinuation, endoscopy revealed a 25-mm 0-I tumor in the ileum. An emergency operation was performed the next day due to intussusception recurrence. The tumor was hyperplastic intestinal epithelium with dendritic smooth muscle fascicles and partly cancerous. The patient had no clinical features of Peutz-Jeghers syndrome. Therefore, the patient was diagnosed with Peutz-Jeghers type polyps based on pathological findings. This case is considered to be a rare case of intussusception in the transverse colon due to Peutz-Jeghers type polyp with canceration.

RESUMO

Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is the most common primary esophageal malignancy. Telmisartan, an angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor blocker (ARB) and a widely used antihypertensive, has been shown to inhibit proliferation of various cancer types. This study evaluated the effects of telmisartan on human ESCC cell proliferation in vitro and in vivo and sought to identify the microRNAs (miRNAs) involved in these antitumor effects. We examined the effects of telmisartan on three human ESCC cell lines (KYSE150, KYSE180, and KYSE850). Telmisartan inhibited proliferation of these three cell lines by inducing S-phase arrest, which was accompanied by decreased expression of cyclin A2, cyclin-dependent kinase 2, and other cell cycle-related proteins. Additionally, telmisartan reduced levels of phosphorylated ErbB3 and thrombospondin-1 in KYSE180 cells. Furthermore, expression of miRNAs was remarkably altered by telmisartan in vitro. Telmisartan also inhibited tumor growth in vivo in a xenograft mouse model. In conclusion, telmisartan inhibited cell proliferation and tumor growth in ESCC cells by inducing cell-cycle arrest.

RESUMO

Galectin-9 (Gal-9) enhances tumor immunity mediated by T cells, macrophages, and dendritic cells. Its expression level in various cancers correlates with prognosis. Furthermore, Gal-9 directly induces apoptosis in various cancers; however, its mechanism of action and bioactivity has not been clarified. We evaluated Gal-9 antitumor effect against esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) to analyze the dynamics of apoptosis-related molecules, elucidate its mechanism of action, and identify relevant changes in miRNA expressions. KYSE-150 and KYSE-180 cells were treated with Gal-9 and their proliferation was evaluated. Gal-9 inhibited cell proliferation in a concentration-dependent manner. The xenograft mouse model established with KYSE-150 cells was administered with Gal-9 and significant suppression in the tumor growth observed. Gal-9 treatment of KYSE-150 cells increased the number of Annexin V-positive cells, activation of caspase-3, and collapse of mitochondrial potential, indicating apoptosis induction. c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK) and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38) phosphorylation were activated and could be involved in apoptosis. Therefore, Gal-9 induces mitochondria-mediated apoptosis of ESCC and inhibits cell proliferation in vitro and in vivo with JNK and p38 activation.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Although there have been several reports of treating large post-endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) ulcers by covering them with a polyglycolic acid sheet (PGAs), this approach presents problems regarding PGAs delivery. This study assessed the usefulness of a device delivery station system (DDSS) to evaluate the appropriate and rapid PGAs coating method with DDSS. METHODS: Thirty-nine of 41 patients who were diagnosed with early gastric cancer over 20 mm in diameter and pathologically diagnosed with well-differentiated adenocarcinoma were randomly allocated to the following two groups according to delivery method: the conventional PGAs delivery group (C group) (n = 19) and the new DDSS group (DDSS group) (n = 20). The primary outcome was the coating area per minute in the C group and DDSS group (cm2/min). RESULTS: There were significant differences in the coating time (min), with values of 34.1 (15.0-60.7) vs. 16.85 (11.5-27.2) min for the C group and DDSS group, respectively (p = 0.001). There was also a significant difference in coating area per minute, with values of 0.261 (0.02-1.00) and 0.96 (0.173-2.06) cm2/min for the C group and DDSS group, respectively (p = 0.001). There were four cases of post-ESD bleeding (1-7 days after ESD) in the C group compared with 0 in the DDSS group, which represented a significant difference (p = 0.030). CONCLUSIONS: The DDSS was very useful for rapidly delivering and tightly attaching a PGAs to control post-ESD bleeding. TRIAL REGISTRATION: University Hospital Medical Network (UMIN) 000026377.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) techniques, such as generating an artificial space between digestive tract layers for safer dissection, were thought to be safer for the resection of organs in cholecystectomy. We investigated whether combinations of endoscopic techniques and laparoscopic techniques could be performed more safely and rapidly. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Laparoscopic and endoscopic cooperative-cholecystectomy (LEC-chole) and conventional laparoscopic cholecystectomy (Lapa-chole) were performed in six dogs. Operation time was defined as the time from the creation of the first port to the retrieval of the resected gallbladder (GB); and GB bed dissection time was the time from local injection of natural saline to the clipping of the cystic duct. The main roles of the endoscope in LEC-chole were to obtain a sufficient cutting space via local injection of natural saline to the GB bed and to monitor the operative view without laparoscopic camera, thus omitting the umbilical port. RESULTS: The operation times were 60 ± 18.3 minutes for LEC-chole and 95 ± 7.0 for Lapa-chole (p = .036). The GB bed dissection times were 31 ± 8.54 minutes in LEC-chole and 50.6 ± 7.37 minutes in Lapa-chole (p = 0.048). There were significant differences in liver damage and bleeding (p = 0.116), but there were no significant differences in one-month survival. CONCLUSIONS: The application of LEC-chole may be expanded to cholecystectomy.

RESUMO

Total spikelet number per panicle (TSN) is one of the determinants of grain productivity in rice (Oryza sativa L.). In this study, we attempted to detect quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for TSN in the introgression lines with high TSN, derived from the cross of Indica Group variety IR 64 with new plant type lines. Two QTLs were detected on the long arm of chromosome 12: qTSN12.1 in the BC4F2 population of YTH63/IR 64 and qTSN12.2 in the BC4F3 population of YTH83/IR 64. TSN of the main tiller was significantly higher in near-isogenic lines (NILs) for qTSN12.1 (IR 64-NIL1; 188.6) and for qTSN12.2 (IR 64-NIL12; 199.4) than in IR 64 (141.2), owing to a significant increase in both primary and secondary branch numbers. These results suggest the critical function of these QTLs in the promotion of rachis branching at the panicle formation stage. Fine mapping of qTSN12.2 revealed six candidate genes in a 92-kb region of the Nipponbare reference genome sequence between flanking markers RM28746 and RM28753. Detailed phenotyping of agronomic traits of IR 64-NIL12 carrying qTSN12.2 showed drastic changes in plant architecture: this line had lower panicle number, longer culm, and longer and wider leaves compared with IR 64. Percentage of fertility and 1000-grain weight tended to be greater, and grain yield per square meter was also greater in IR 64-NIL12 than in IR 64. The newly identified QTLs will be useful for genetic improvement of the yield potential of Indica Group varieties. The markers tightly linked to qTSN12.2 are available for marker-assisted breeding.
