    Abstract Combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) has significantly improved the prognosis of individuals living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome has transformed from a fatal disease to a treatable chronic infection. Currently, effective and safe anti-HIV drugs are available. Although cART can reduce viral production in the body of the patient to below the detection limit, it cannot eliminate the HIV provirus integrated into the host cell genome; hence, the virus will be produced again after cART discontinuation. Therefore, research into a cure (or remission) for HIV has been widely conducted. In this review, we focus on drug development targeting cells latently infected with HIV and assess the progress including our current studies, particularly in terms of the "Shock and Kill", and "Block and Lock" strategies.

    Abstract The emerging field of lipidomics presents the systems biology approach to identify and quantify the full lipid repertoire of cells, tissues, and organisms. The importance of the lipidome is demonstrated by a number of biological studies on dysregulation of lipid metabolism in human diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and neurodegenerative diseases. Exploring changes and regulations in the huge networks of lipids and their metabolic pathways requires a lipidomics methodology: advanced mass spectrometry that resolves the complexity of the lipidome. Here, we report a comprehensive protocol of quantitative shotgun lipidomics that enables identification and quantification of hundreds of molecular lipid species, covering a wide range of lipid classes, extracted from cultured mammalian cells.

    Abstract: A 73-year-old woman with posterior cortical atrophy (PCA) presented with progressive apperceptive visual agnosia, alexia, agraphia, ventral simultanagnosia, prosopagnosia, and allocentric (stimulus-centered) left-sided hemispatial neglect. All of these ... ...

    Abstract A 73-year-old woman with posterior cortical atrophy (PCA) presented with progressive apperceptive visual agnosia, alexia, agraphia, ventral simultanagnosia, prosopagnosia, and allocentric (stimulus-centered) left-sided hemispatial neglect. All of these symptoms were attributed to damage to the bilateral occipito-temporal cortices, consistent with ventral variant PCA. While the Pittsburgh compound B uptake was extensively distributed throughout the occipito-parietal (dorsal) and occipito-temporal (ventral) areas, the THK5351 (ligand binding to tau aggregates/astrocyte gliosis) accumulation was limited to the ventral area. These findings suggest that local accumulation of tau proteins and/or astrocyte gliosis over the occipito-temporal cortices can result in ventral variant PCA.

    Abstract Aims: We assessed 27-year trends in obesity and blood lipid levels of 10-year-old children to estimate the risk of metabolic syndrome in adulthood.
    Methods: Based on a screening program for lifestyle-related diseases in school children in Oita City, Japan, we evaluated secular trends in height, weight, percentage of overweight (POW), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), HDL cholesterol (HDL-C), and non-HDL cholesterol (non-HDL-C) of fifth graders (median age: 10.8 years) in Oita City from 1991 to 2017. We focused on the secular trend in the percentage of children with inappropriate serum levels of each lipid. We also evaluated the long-term trends in the 95
    Results: A total of 58,699 boys and 56,864 girls were evaluated during the study period. The percentage of children with severe obesity (POW-50) consistently increased during these years, and the 95
    Conclusion: The number of children with severe obesity increased, and obese children had higher percentages of inappropriate lipid levels than non-obese children. The rate of dyslipidemia with low HDL levels gradually increased in all children in Oita City, Japan, over the past 27 years.

    Abstract Type 1 diabetes incidence has increased worldwide, although the long-term trends on pediatric type 1 diabetes in Japan remain elusive. To investigate the incidence and secular trend of pediatric type 1 diabetes from 1999 to 2021, including the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic years, in Oita Prefecture, Japan. We investigated the number of newly diagnosed patients with type 1 diabetes aged < 15 years from 1999 to 2021. We surveyed hospital databases in Oita Prefecture in Japan. The type 1 diabetes incidence in children aged < 15 years increased annually by 5.3% among all children, especially in boys aged 10-14 years by 8.1%, over the past 23 years. The average incidence rate of 3.9/100,000/year was nearly consistent with the previous reports on Asian countries. No significant change was found in the increasing incidence trend of type 1 diabetes before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. The incidence of pediatric type 1 diabetes has significantly increased over the past 23 years in Oita Prefecture, Japan, which is consistent with the worldwide trend.

    Abstract Aim: To clarify the relationship between early infantile spontaneous movement of very-low-birth-weight infants (VLBWIs) and sensory characteristics in childhood.
    Study design: Prospective cohort study. We investigated the association between the Motor Optimality Score-Revised (MOS-R), a detailed assessment of general movements (GMs) at the corrected age of 9-17 weeks and the Infant/Toddler Sensory Profile Japanese version (ITSP-J) at the corrected age of 3 years. A multiple regression analysis was performed to examine the correlation of ITSP-J and MOS-R with patient clinical background factors.
    Subjects: Fifty-three VLBWIs (median gestational age: 28 weeks, 6 days; median birth weight: 997 g) who were managed at the NICU of Oita University from September 2013 to June 2019.
    Results: A multiple regression analysis revealed that the ITSP-J subscale in the sensory section of visual score was significantly correlated with the age-adequate movement repertoire subscore of MOS-R, and in the sensory section of vestibular score was correlated with the fidgety subscore of MOS-R. For both visual and vestibular section scores, intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) showed an independent association with the MOS-R subscore.
    Conclusion: Spontaneous movement characteristics in early infancy were associated with sensory characteristics in early childhood.
