    Abstract Aims: Identifying patients with vulnerable plaque who have poor prognosis among those with coronary artery disease (CAD) is crucial to deciding future therapeutic interventions. We previously reported that male CAD patients with low anti-apolipoprotein B-100 autoantibody (anti-apoB-100 Ab) levels were at an increased risk of developing unstable plaque lesions. This study focused on the autoantibodies against lipoprotein lipase (LPL), a key enzyme in triglyceride metabolism, which is another risk factor for atherosclerosis, and investigated their association with plaque characteristics.
    Methods: We measured serum anti-LPL Ab levels using a homemade enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in 80 male CAD patients. Coronary plaque properties were evaluated using iMAP®-intravascular ultrasound.
    Results: Serum anti-LPL Ab levels were not correlated with plaque burden but were significantly negatively and positively correlated with fibrotic and necrotic plaques, respectively. High-risk patients with low anti-apoB-100 Ab levels were divided into groups according to their anti-LPL Ab levels. The group with high anti-LPL Ab levels exhibited more necrotic plaques and fewer fibrotic plaques as well as higher remnant-like lipoprotein particle levels than the group with low anti-LPL Ab levels.
    Conclusions: Serum anti-LPL Ab levels can serve as a marker of plaque instability in CAD patients and can help identify higher-risk cases when combined with anti-apoB-100 Ab levels.

    Abstract Epoxy resin thin films are widely used in applications such as coating materials, insulator films, and adhesives; accordingly, investigations of their physical properties have garnered increasing importance. Although the physical properties of thermoset epoxy thin films are strongly affected by the curing conditions, such as the heating temperature and curing time, the dynamic properties during the curing process have not been studied thoroughly. In this study, we investigated the thermal fluctuations on the surface of epoxy resin thin films using grazing-incidence X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy, to elucidate the dynamic behaviours during the curing process. We thus succeeded in observing the freezing of capillary waves during the thermal curing process. These results are expected to facilitate a deeper understanding of the curing mechanisms of various thin films.

    Abstract Simultaneous modification of the expression levels of many metabolic enzyme genes results in diverse expression ratios of these genes; however, the relationship between gene expression levels and chemical productivity remains unclear. However, clarification of this relationship is expected to improve the productivity of useful chemicals. Supervised machine learning is considered to be an effective means to clarify this relationship. In this study, to improve the productivity of carotenoids in yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, we aimed to build a machine-learning model that can predict the optimal gene expression level for carotenoid production. First, we obtained data on the expression levels of mevalonate pathway enzyme genes and carotenoid production. Then, based on these data, we built a machine-learning model to predict carotenoid productivity based on gene expression levels. The prediction accuracy of 0.6292 (coefficient of determination) was achieved using the test data. The maximum predicted carotenoid productivity was 4.3 times higher in the engineered strain than in the parental strain, suggesting that the expression levels of the mevalonate pathway enzyme genes tHMG1 and ERG8 have a particularly large impact on carotenoid productivity. This study could be one of the important achievements in addressing the uncertainty of genotype-phenotype correlations, which is one of the challenges facing metabolic engineering strategies.

    Abstract Self-incompatibility in the Brassicaceae family is governed by SRK and SCR, which are two highly polymorphic genes located at the S-locus. Previously, the Arabidopsis lyrata SRK and SCR genes were introduced into Arabidopsis thaliana to generate self-incompatible lines. However, there are no reports showing that Brassica SRK and SCR genes confer self-incompatibility in A. thaliana. Doing so would further advance the mechanistic understanding of self-incompatibility in Brassicaceae. Therefore, we attempted to generate A. thaliana transformants showing the self-recognition activity of Brassica rapa by introducing BrSCR along with a chimeric BrSRK (BrSRK chimera, in which the kinase domain of BrSRK was replaced with that of AlSKR-b). We found that the BrSRK chimera and BrSCR of B. rapa S-9 and S-46 haplotypes, but not those of S-29, S-44, and S-60 haplotypes, conferred self-recognition activity in A. thaliana. Analyses of A. thaliana transformants expressing mutant variants of the BrSRK-9 chimera and BrSCR-9 revealed that mutations at the amino acid residues involved in BrSRK9-BrSCR9 interaction caused defects in the self-incompatibility response. The method developed in this study for generating self-incompatible A. thaliana transformants showing B. rapa self-recognition activity will be useful for analysis of self-recognition mechanisms in Brassicaceae.
