    Abstract Crude drug Angelicae acutilobae radix is one of the most important crude drugs in Japanese traditional medicine and is used mainly for the treatment of gynecological disorders. In the listing in the Japanese Pharmacopoeia XVIII, Angelicae acutilobae radix is defined as the root of Angelica acutiloba (Apiaceae), which has long been produced on an industrial scale in Japan. With the aging of farmers and depopulation of production areas, the domestic supply has recently declined and the majority of the supply is now imported from China. Due to having only slightly different morphological and chemical characteristics for the Apiaceae roots used to produce dried roots for Chinese medicines, the plant species originating the crude drug Apiaceae roots may be incorrectly identified. In particular, Angelicae sinensis radix, which is widely used in China, and Angelicae acutilobae radix are difficult to accurately identify by morphology and chemical profiles. Thus, in order to differentiate among Angelicae acutilobae radix and other radixes originated from Chinese medicinal Apiaceae plants, we established DNA markers. Using DNA sequences for the chloroplast psbA-trnH intergenic spacer and nuclear internal transcribed spacer regions, Angelicae acutilobae radix and other Chinese Apiaceae roots, including Angelicae sinensis radix, can be definitively identified.

    Abstract We present a case of oligo lymph node metastasis in a 70s man who had previously undergone subtotal gastrectomy for advanced gastric cancer in the prepylorus. Postoperatively, adjuvant chemotherapy was administered for a duration of 1 year. During the third postoperative year, elevated tumor markers and lymph node enlargement prompted a diagnosis of lymph node metastasis. Subsequent chemoradiotherapy resulted in a complete response(CR), which has been sustained for 2 years without any recurrence. The outcomes of this case indicate that chemoradiotherapy stands as a viable treatment option for oligo lymphatic recurrence in gastric cancer.

    Abstract The Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway causes transcriptional activation through the interaction between β-catenin and T cell-specific transcription factor (TCF) and regulates a wide variety of cellular responses, including proliferation, differentiation and cell motility. Excessive transcriptional activation of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway is implicated in developing or exacerbating various cancers. We have recently reported that liver receptor homolog-1 (LRH-1)-derived peptides inhibit the β-catenin/TCF interaction. In addition, we developed a cell-penetrating peptide (CPP)-conjugated LRH-1-derived peptide that inhibits the growth of colon cancer cells and specifically inhibits the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. Nonetheless, the inhibitory activity of the CPP-conjugated LRH-1-derived peptide was unsatisfactory (ca. 20 μM), and improving the bioactivity of peptide inhibitors is required for their in vivo applications. In this study, we optimized the LRH-1-derived peptide using in silico design to enhance its activity further. The newly designed peptides showed binding affinity toward β-catenin comparable to the parent peptide. In addition, the CPP-conjugated stapled peptide, Penetratin-st6, showed excellent inhibition (ca. 5 μM). Thus, the combination of in silico design by MOE and MD calculations has revealed that logical molecular design of PPI inhibitory peptides targeting β-catenin is possible. This method can be also applied to the rational design of peptide-based inhibitors targeting other proteins.

    Abstract Invited for this month's cover is the group of Haruo Kawamoto at Kyoto University (Japan). The cover picture shows the carbonization pathway of cellulose via 5-hydroxymethylfurfural as an important intermediate. Thermochemical conversion is one of the promising technologies to convert cellulose, which is the main component of lignocellulosic biomass, into biofuels and biochemicals. Understanding the molecular mechanism of thermal degradation of cellulose is important for developing efficient conversion techniques by controlling the reaction.
