Abstract | The significance of the low attenuation area (LAA) of the lungs on high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) has not been determined in patients with asthma. We examined the relationship between the percentage of lung area with CT numbers lower than -950HU (% LAA) and the mean CT number in 81 patients with reversible airway obstruction (asthma) and in 22 healthy subjects, as well as the relationship between maximal % LAA and various parameters of pulmonary function, smoking history, disease severity and allergic type in the asthmatic subjects. The mean CT
number was obtained by scans at three anatomic levels, and maximal % LAA was the % LAA which had the largest value of those measured at the three anatomic levels of the lung.
We found that: 1. The mean CT number was closely related to the maximal % LAA of the lungs in all subjects studied (r= -0.916, p |

Abstract | Dietary supplementation with perilla seed oil, a vegetable oil rich in α -lin- olenic acid, inhibits the generation of leukotrienes(LTs) by leucocytes in patients with bronchial asthma. We examined the factors that affect the suppression of LT generation by leucocytes with perilla seed oil-rich supplementation in patients with asthma, by comparing the clinical features of patients with asthma, whose generation of leukotriene (LT) C4 was suppressed by dietary supplementation with perilla seed oil (n-3 fatty acids) (group A), with those of patients who showed no suppression of LTC4 generation (group B). Group A showed a significant increase in the generation of LTB4 and L TC4 by leucocytes after corn oil-rich supplementation (n-6 fatty acids), and a significant decrease in the generation of LTB4 and LTC4 after perilla seed oil-rich supplementation (n-3 fatty acid). However, this was not observed in group B. The level of serum IgE and peak expiratory flow (PEF) in group A were significantly higher than in group B. Furthermore, the serum levels of LDL-cholesterol, β-lipoprotein and phospholipid were significantly lower in group A than in group B. These results suggest that the clinical features differ between these two asthmatic populations with respect to suppression of LTB4 and LTC4 generation by n-3 fatty acids in perilla seed oil-rich supplementation. |

Abstract | In a previous study, we demonstrated that chronic administration of systemic glucocorticoids decreases cortical bone mineral density (BMD) and induces development of pathologic fractures in asthmatic patients. To investigate cortical bone porosity due to glucocorticoids, we studied cortical bone volume, BMD, bone strength, and fractures in patients with asthma in this report. A total of 82 postmenopausal asthmatic patients were enrolled in the study. Vertebral fractures were diagnosed via plain spinal radiograms. Peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) was used to measure cortical BMD, relative cortical volume, and Strength Strain Index (SSI). Multiple regression analysis, Student's t test, and other statistical analyses were performed. Patients with systemic glucocorticoids therapy had lower cortical BMD, relative cortical volume, SSI, and more number of vertebral fractures than patients without it. Lifetime cumulative dose of glucocorticoids was related to cortical BMD, relative cortical volume, SSI, and the number of vertebral fractures. The cortical volumedensity relationship appeared to remain constant regardless of systemic glucocorticoid administration. The number of vertebral fractures correlated highly with cortical BMD, relative cortical volume, and SSI at the radius. In conclusion, systemic glucocorticoid administration decreases cortical bone density, cortical bone volume, and bone strength. G lucocorticoid administration appears to be responsible for the process of cortical bone porosity at both endosteal and intracortical sites. Given that both cortical bone density and volume provide bone strength, cortical bone porosity was seen to contribute to glucocorticoid - induced bone strength loss and fractures. |

Abstract | Serum IgE levels and IgE antibody values in relation to patient age were examined in 50 patients with house dust mite (HDm) sensitive asthma, 1. IgE antibody values to HDm were highest in patients between the ages of 10 and 19, and the values generally low in those over the age of 40. 2. High IgE antibody values to HDm were accompanied by high serum IgE levels in patients between 10 and 19. IgE antibody values and serum IgE levels were in general low in patients over age 40. In patient under age 9, serum IgE levels were less than 500 IU/ml in 5 of the 10 subjects despite an increased value of IgE antibodies to HDm. These results suggest that an increased production of IgE antibodies to HDm is usually accompanied by an increased production of total IgE in younger subjects. However, an increase in production of IgE antibodies is not always related to an increase in production of total IgE in patients under age 9. The results also show that production of IgE antibodies to HDm and total IgE is in general low in older patients despite the hyperreactivity to HDm. |

Abstract | Humoral and cellular immune responses in bronchial asthma were examined by comparing the results of older asthmatics (group OA) with those of older healthy subjects (group OH) and of younger asthmatics (group YA). In humoral immune response, IgE-mediated immune system expressed by elevated serum IgE levels and IgE antibodies for house dust mite (HDm) and/or Candida albicans was clearly found in older asthmatics, while there was no finding showing the presence of IgE-mediated immune response in older healthy subjects. There was no significant difference in levels of serum IgG and IgA among the three groups. However, the serum IgM level was significantly lower in older asthmatics than in younger asthmatics. IgE antibodies to HDm and/or Candida albicans were more frequently found in older asthmatics compared with older healthy subjects. In contrast, IgG(4) antibodies to HDm were not different among the three groups. IgG(4) antibodies to Candida albicans were significantly higher in both older groups than in younger group. However, there was no significant difference between asthmatic and healthy subjects in the elderly. Delayed skin reaction to PPD was significantly more decreased in older asthmatics. These results show that bronchial asthma in the elderly is characterized by the presence of IgE-mediated immune response and by the changes of immune response with aging. |

Abstract | To analyze the pathophysiological changes ot the airways in emphysema, bronchial responsiveness and the generation of leukotrienes B4 (LTB4) and C4 (LTC4) by peripheral leucocytes were examined in 22 patients with emphysema. The subjects were divided into two groups according to the presence or absence of IgE antibodies against inhalant allergens; RAST positive group and RAST negative group. 1. Smoking history, mean CT number and mean maximum % low attenuation area (% LAA) <-950HU of the lung on high resolution computed tomography (HRCT), and DLco value suggested that there were emphysematous changes of the lung in all subjects. However, these findings were not different between the two groups. 2. The level of serum IgE was significantly higher in RAST positive group than in RAST negative group. 3. The mean % increase in FEV1.0 after inhalation of β-agonists was higher in RAST positive group than in RAST negative group. The % increase more than 15% was found in 4 of the 9 subjects (44.4%) in RAST positive group and 2 of the 12 (16.7%) in RAST negative group. 4. The generation of LTC4 by leucocytes was significantly higher in RAST positive group than in RAST negative group (p<0.01). The generation of LTB4 was not significantly different between the two groups. The results suggest that IgE-mediated allergy participates in the bronchial responsiveness of patients with emphysema. |

Abstract | IgE antibodies against inhalant allergens were estimated in 53 patients with bronchial asthma in relation to allergic rhinitis. Of them, 20 patients (37.7%) had allergic rhinitis. 1. Asthma + allergic rhinitis were often observed in patients between the ages of 0 and 39. In contrast, asthma alone in those over age 60. 2. A RAST score was positive in house dust mite (HDm)(50.9%), cockroach(24.5%), and Candida (26.4%) in these patients, and the positive rate was not different between patients with and without allergic rhinitis. 3. The frequency of positive RAST against Japanese cedar and rice plants was higher in patients with allergic rhinitis (42.9% and 18.5%) than in those without allergic rhinitis (28.6 and 3.7%), however, the each positive rate or RAST against the two allergens was not significantly different between those with AR and without AR. 4. The number of patients with AR induced by pollen alone (pollinosis) was not large ( 5/53, 9.4%) in the patients with asthma. It was clarified from the results that allergic rhinitis was often observed in asthma patients, but not pollinosis. and that IgE antibodies against Japanese cedar and rice plants were found even in patients without AR. |

Abstract | Immunoallergological studies were carried out to clarify the differences between 24 patients with drug-induced asthma (DIA) and 240 with non-drug-induced asthma (non-DIA). The mean values of age, skin reaction to Candida albicans (C. albicans), serum IgE levels, specific IgE antibodies to house dust (HD) and C. albicans, bronchial sensitivity and leukotriene B4 (LTB4) synthesis from peripheral venous blood in patients with DIA were not significantly different from those in patients with non-DIA. In contrast, the frequency of positive skin reaction to HD and histamine release from peripheral basophils by anti-IgE were significantly lower in DIA than in non-DIA. These results agree with the reports that DIA was often observed in non-atopic asthma. But, the mean value of serum IgE was very high in DIA as well as in non-DIA. This result suggests that IgE mediated reaction in DIA is important. Furthermore, the proportion of neutrophils in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was significantly lower in DIA than in non-DIA. Our findings suggest that a decrease of intrapulmonary neutrophils might play an important role in the pathophysiology of DIA. |

Abstract | The generation. of leukotrienes 84 (LT84) and C4 (LTC4) by leucocytes stimulated with Ca ionophore A23187 was examined in 71 patients with asthma (42 with atopic and 29 with nonatopic asthma) and 23 healthy controls. Of these patients,22 had SDIA (steroid-dependent intractable asthma). 1. The generation of LT84 and LTC4 by leucocytes was significantly more enhanced in patients with atopic, non-SOIA asthma than in healthy subjects, but not in patients with nonatopic asthma. The generation of LT84 and LTC4 in atopic asthma was significantly more decreased in patients with SOIA than in those with non-SOIA. 2. The LTC4 generation was significantly larger in attack stage than in attack-free stage of patients with atopic and nonatopic asthma when they had not SOIA. However, no significant difference was found in LT84 generation between attack and nonattack stages in these patients. 3. In patients with SOIA, no significant differences were observed in the generation of LT84 and LTC4 between attack and nonattack stages. The results suggest that IgE-mediated allergy and asthma attacks enhance and glucocorticoids inhibit the generation of LT84 and LTC4 by leucocytes. |

Abstract | Cellular composition of bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid was compared between two age-matched steroid-dependent intractable asthma (SDIA) groups : 17 group A patients (serum IgG level < 1000mg/dℓ) whose immunity was regarded as being suppressed by long-term glucocorticoid therapy and 17 group B patients (serum IgG level > 1200mg/dℓ). 1. The levels of serum IgA and IgM were significantly decreased in group A compared to the levels in group B patients. 2. The number of blood lymphocytes was also significantly lower in group A than in group B patients. However, the number of blood neutrophils was not different between the two asthma groups. 3.The number of BAL lymphocytes was significantly lower in group A than in group B patients. 4. BAL neutrophilia (more than 1.5×10 (4)/mℓ) was observed in 6 of the 17(35.3%) patients in group A, but not observed in any patients in group B. The number of BAL neutrophils was significantly greater in group A than in group B patients. These results suggest that there is a correlation between immunosuppression by glucocorticoids and BAL neutrophilia in patients with bronchial asthma. |

Abstract | To evaluate improvement of mental disorders by spa therapy for 1-2 months, three kinds of psychological examinations, CMI (Cornel Medical Index), SDS (Selfrating Depression Scale) and CAI (Comprehensive Asthma Inventory) tests, were performed in 37 patients with asthma before and after spa therapy. 1. In CMI test, the scores of physical symptoms, respiratory symptoms, and CIJ symptoms significantly decreased after spa therapy. The score of psychical symptoms tended to decrease after the therapy, however, this was not significant. 2. The mean score of the subjects over 40 points in SDS test significantly decreased from 45.7 points before spa therapy to 37.5 after the therapy. 3. Mental disorders evaluated by various categories in CAI test were significantly improved after spa therapy. The average score in CAI test significantly decreased from 37.1 to 27.8 after the therapy. These results demonstrate that psychological disorders in patients with asthma are improved by spa therapy. |

Abstract | Background-The influence of cigarette smoking on the pathogenesis of asthma in the elderly remains controversial. This study attempts to estimate longitudinal changes in HRCT (high resolution computed tomography) parameters and pulmonary function parameters obtained for ex-smokers and never-smokers in asthmatics during 4-yr follow-up period. Methods-Fourteen asthmatics (6 ex-smokers and 8 never-smokers) were studied to determine the influence of aging and cigarette smoking on pulmonary function, and mean lung density (MLD) and the relative area of the lung showing attenuation values less than -950 HU (RA950) on HRCT scans. Results-The values of FVC and FEV1, were significantly more decreased in asthmatics without a smoking history during 4-yr follow-up period. The values of FVC, FEV1, FEV1/FVC and DLco/VA were significantly decreased and RV/TLC were significantly increased in asthmatics with a smoking history over 4 years, and annual decline in FEV1 ex-smokers was larger than that in never-smokers. In the upper lung field, inspiratory MLD was observed to shift in a negative direction and inspiratory RA950 was found to increase during 4-yr observation period in ex-smokers, but not in never-smokers. In the middle lung field, inspiratory RA950 was significantly enhanced in both two groups. Although expiratory MLD, expiratory RA950 and exp RA950/ins RA950 were observed to change significantly during the observation period in ex-smokers, no changes were observed in never-smokers. Conclusion-These results suggest that aging augments airspace enlargement predominantly in the middle lung field, while long term cigarette smoking further worsens emphysematous alterations in the upper lung field. |

Abstract | Bronchial asthma is often accompanied with allergic rhinitis or chronic sinusitis. Mucosal abnormalities of sinonasal cavity may influence lower respiratory responses in patients with asthma. We experienced a case of 72-year-old woman with asthma, who had dyspnea on exertion and a large volume of expectoration of more than 100mℓ a day. Furthermore she had nasal symptoms (nasal obstruction and rhinorrea) with prominent post-nasal discharge. Computed tomography (CT) scans of sinonasal cavity revealed marked thickness of nasal mucosa. Although her asthma symptoms such as wheezing and dyspnea improved by administration of bronchodialators, antiallergic agent, and beclomethason di isocyanate (BDI) accompanied with spa therapy after admission, the volume of expectoration revealed no decrease and her peak expiratory flow (PEF) didn't increase. The volume of expectoration and the PEF showed marked improvement after starting of intranasal glucocorticoid therapy. It is suggested from her clinical course that treatment with intranasal glucocorticoids is very important in asthmatic patients with mucosal abnormalities of sinonasal cavity. |

Abstract | c-junはニワトリの癌ウイルスから分離された癌遺伝子(v-jun)のproto-oncogeneであり,その遺伝子産物は細胞内転写促進因子AP-1の主成分である。v-jun,c-junのトランスフォーム能を検討するために,我々はv-jun,ニワトリc-jun遺伝子さらにJUN遺伝子の種々の組換え体を複製能を持つレトロウイルスベクター(RCAS)に挿入し,CEF細胞(ニワトリ胎児線維芽細胞)にトランスフェクションした。その結果4か所存在する両者の構造的相違のうち,アミノ末端近くの27アミノ酸の欠損と3' untranslated regionの欠損が十分なトランスフォーム能と転写促進能発現に必須であることが明らかとなった。これらの部分がどのように機能発現に関与しているかは,これからの研究を待たねばならない。 |

Abstract | The generation of leukotrienes B4 (LTB4) and C4 (LTC4) by leucocytes stimulated with Ca ionophore A23187 was examined in 16 patients with asthma (8 with atopic and 8 with nonatopic asthma) and 12 healthy controls. 1. The LT84 generation by leucocytes was not significantly different between patients with asthma and healthy controls. The generation of LTC4 was significantly larger in patients with asthma than in healthy controls. The LTC4 generation was also significantly larger in patients with attacks (58.4 ± 38.5 ng/5x10(6) cells) than in those without attacks (23.3 ± 25.9 ng/5x10(6) cells)(p<0.05). 2.ln atopic asthma, the LTC4 production was significantly larger in patients with attacks (84.7 ± 35.4 ng/5x10(6) cells) compared to the production in those without attacks (40.4 ± 27.2 ng/5x10(6) cells)(p<0.02). However, the production of LTB4 was not significantly different between attack and attack-free stages. 3. In nonatopic asthma, the LTC4 production was also significantly higher in patients with attacks (32.2 ± 26.3 ng/5x10(6) cells) than in those without attacks (12.2 ± 3.5 ng/5x10(6) cells)(p<0.05). However, the LTB4 production was not significantly different between attack and nonattack stages. 4. The LTC4 production was significantly larger in atopic asthmatics compared to the production in nonatopic subjects both in attack and nonattack stages. These results suggest that the generation of LTC4 by leucocytes of patients with asthma is closely related to IgE-mediated reaction and asthma attacks. |

Abstract | We experienced a case of 59-year-old woman with intractable asthma, who had aspirin intolerance. Despite various treatments including systemic corticosteroid administration, she was often admitted due to severe asthma attacks. Furthermore, she had allergic rhinitis and sinusitis. Computed tomography (CT) scans of sinonasal cavity revealed marked thickness of nasal mucosa and air-fluid level in maxillary sinuses. Although her asthma symptoms such as wheezing and dyspnea were improved by administration of bronchodilator, systemic corticosteroids and beclomethasone diisoccyanate (BDI) accompanied with spa therapy, her peak expiratory flow (PEF) showed no improvement. After readmission due to asthma attacks, clarithromycin (CAM) administration for sinonasal disorders was started. The PEF value showed marked improvement after starting CAM administration, and pulmonary functions and bronchial hyperresponsiveness were also improved. It is suggested from her clinical course that CAM may have beneficial effects in asthmatic patients with sinonasal disorders. |

Abstract | The influence of cigarette smoking on the pathophysiology in elderly patients with asthma. Forty asthmatics over the age of 70 years (20 ex-smokers and 20 never-smokers), and 20 patients with pulmonary emphysema over age 70 (all ever-smokers) were studied to determine the influence of cigarette smoke on the low attenuation area (LAA) <-950 HU (RA950) of the lungs on high resolution CT (HRCT) scans, and the ratio of expiratory LAA to inspiratory LAA of the lungs in relation to pulmonary function. The LAA value was significantly higher in patients with pulmonary emphysema compared with ever-smokers of asthmatics. The LAA ratio was significantly higher in ever-smokers than in never-smokers of asthmatics, and the ratio was less than 0.5 in all never-smokers, and the ratio was more than 0.5 in 10 of 20 ever-smokers of asthmatics and in all patients with pulmonary emphysema. The % RV (residual volume) was significaltly larger and % DLco (diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide) was significantly lower in subjects with the ratio more than 0.5 than in those with the ratio less than 0.5. These results suggest that cigarette smoke influences LAA of the lungs in relation to % RV value and % DLco value. |
