    Abstract Knowledge Palette, Inc. is a start-up company that aims to overcome incurable diseases by applying the world's most accurate single-cell level and bulk level transcriptome technology to obtain large-scale data on the state of cells treated with various types of drugs and media, and using this information to highly control cells for improving human health. We are working on new phenotypic drug discovery and higher quality cells for regenerative medicine using big data. As one of its core technologies, the company is utilizing a single-cell-level whole gene expression analysis technology, Quartz-Seq2, which was originally developed in RIKEN. This technology received first place in accuracy of genes detection as well as marker identification, and was ranked No. 1 in overall score in the benchmarking in the international Human Cell Atlas project. By applying this technology to the bulk level analysis of ultra-multiple samples, it has enabled drug screening, analysis of human clinical specimens, and evaluation of numerous culture environments in a high-throughput way. This paper presents an omics-driven drug discovery and cell regulation approach that is combined with large-scale data and artificial intelligence technology.

    Abstract Background: Remimazolam is a benzodiazepine receptor agonist with an ultra-short-acting anesthetic effect. We used remimazolam for anesthesia in a patient with myotonic dystrophy type 1 who underwent endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP).
    Case presentation: A 58-year-old woman received ERCP under general anesthesia. She had impaired respiratory function due to myotonic dystrophy type I and was at a risk of respiratory complications after anesthesia. General anesthesia was induced with remimazolam 12 mg/kg/h, remifentanil 0.1 μg/kg/min and rocuronium 15 mg, followed by tracheal intubation and maintained with remimazolam 0.8-1.0 mg/kg/h. At the end of anesthesia, we injected sugammadex 150 mg and flumazenil 0.2 mg, allowing smooth and clear emergence from anesthesia. She was discharged from the hospital without any respiratory problems on postoperative day 5.
    Conclusions: Remimazolam was safe to use for general anesthesia in a patient with myotonic dystrophy type 1 undergoing ERCP.

    Abstract Fully characterizing the post-translational modifications present in charge variants of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), particularly acidic variants, is challenging and remains an open area of investigation. In this study, to test the possibility that chromatographically separated acidic fractions of therapeutic mAbs contain conformational variants, we undertook a mAb refolding approach using as a case study an IgG1 that contains many unidentified acidic peaks with few post-translational modifications, and examined whether different acidic peak fractions could be generated corresponding to these variants. The IgG1 drug substance was denatured by guanidine hydrochloride, without a reducing agent present, and gradually refolded by stepwise dialysis against arginine hydrochloride used as an aggregation suppressor. Each acidic chromatographic peak originally contained in the IgG1 drug substance was markedly increased by this stepwise refolding process, indicating that these acidic variants are conformational variants. However, no conformational changes were detected by small-angle X-ray scattering experiments for the whole IgG1, indicating that the conformational changes are minor. Chromatographic, thermal and fluorescence analyses suggested that the conformational changes are a localized denaturation effect centred around the aromatic amino acid regions. This study provides new insights into the characterization of acidic variants that are currently not fully understood.

    Abstract Understanding how lipid dynamics change with membrane curvature is important given that biological membranes constantly change their curvature and morphology through membrane fusion and endo-/exocytosis. Here, we used time-resolved small-angle neutron scattering and time-resolved fluorescence to characterize the properties and dynamics of phospholipids in vesicles with different curvatures. Dissociation of phospholipids from vesicles required traversing an energy barrier comprising positive enthalpy and negative entropy. However, lipids in membranes with high positive curvature have dense acyl chain packing and loose headgroup packing, leading to hydrophobic hydration due to water penetration into the membrane. These properties were found to lower the hydrophobic hydration enhancement associated with phospholipid dissociation and mitigate the acyl chain packing of lipids adjacent to the space created by the lipid dissociation, resulting in an increase in activation entropy. The results of this study provide important insights into the functions of biomembranes in relation to their dynamic structural changes.

    Abstract Visible particles (VPs) formation in liquid monoclonal antibody formulations is a critical quality issue. Formulations that include poloxamer 188 (PX188) as a surfactant are prone to the formation of VPs comprising aggregated complexes of protein and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS; silicone oil) derived from primary containers. However, the mechanisms through which these VPs form are complicated and remain to be fully elucidated. This study demonstrates for the first time the dominant spot and pathway of protein-PDMS VP formation in a particular liquid vial formulation. Specifically, when a vial sealed with a PDMS-coated stopper is stored in an upright position under conditions whereby the antibody solution has become well-adhered to the stopper and an air phase exists in the vicinity, protein-PDMS aggregates form on the stopper and are then desorbed into the drug solution to be detected as VPs. Here, we evaluated the effects of several factors on VP formation: adhesion of the drug solution to the stopper, storage orientation, silicone coating on the stopper, vial material, and hydrophobicity of PX188. Remarkably, we found that changing any one of the factors could significantly affect VP formation. Our findings are instructive for better understanding the mechanisms of VP formation in vial products and can provide strategies for VP mitigation in biotherapeutics.

    Abstract Background: We previously demonstrated the clinical events in patients who underwent catheter ablation (CA) for atrial fibrillation (AF). Data on the association between the period of atrial tachyarrhythmia (ATA) recurrence after CA and long-term major adverse clinical events (MACE) remain unclear. In this study, we evaluated this issue in patients with systolic impairment (left ventricular ejection fraction < 50%) and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).
    Methods: We retrospectively collected data from 81 patients with systolic impairment and 83 patients with HFpEF who underwent CA for AF at our institution (median follow-up: 4.9 [3.6, 6.6] years). In each group, we compared the cumulative incidence of long-term MACE (since 1 year after CA) between patients with and without ATA recurrence at three follow-up periods (3, 6 months, and 1 year after index CA). We evaluated the period of recurrence, which was the most beneficial predictor of MACE among the periods.
    Results: In the systolic impairment group, the cumulative long-term MACE incidence was significantly higher in patients with ATA recurrence than in those without it within 6 months and 1 year (P = 0.04 and P = 0.01, respectively). Recurrence within 1 year showed the highest feasibility for predicting long-term MACE (area under the curve with 95% confidence interval [CI]:0.73 [0.61-0.84]). However, there was no difference in the incidence of MACE between patients with and without recurrence in a group with HFpEF in each period.
    Conclusion: ATA recurrence within 1 year could predict long-term MACE in patients with systolic impairment, but not in patients with HFpEF.
