    Abstract A 71-year-old non-smoker woman was admitted to our hospital because of left front chest pain. A computed tomography scan showed a large mass of >7.0 cm in the lower left part of the lung and multiple organ metastases in the liver, brain, bone, and left adrenal gland. Pathological analysis of a resected specimen obtained by bronchoscopy revealed keratinization. In addition, p40 was positive and thyroid transcription factor-1, synaptophysin, CD56, and chromogranin A were negative by immunohistochemistry. Programmed cell death ligand 1 expression was 1%-10%, and exon 19 deletion was detected. We diagnosed the patient with stage IVB lung squamous cell carcinoma and administered osimertinib. Osimertinib was later replaced with afatinib because of grade 3 skin rash. Overall, the size of the cancer was decreased. Furthermore, her symptoms, laboratory data, and computer tomographic findings markedly improved. In summary, we experienced a case of epidermal growth factor receptor-positive lung squamous cell carcinoma that was responsive to epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

    Abstract Objectives: Limited data are available on the progression of pulmonary Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) disease without culture-positive sputum. The aim of this study was to identify the risk factors associated with clinical progression of pulmonary MAC disease diagnosed by bronchoscopy.
    Methods: A single-center, retrospective, observational study was conducted. Pulmonary MAC patients diagnosed by bronchoscopy without culture-positive sputum from January 1, 2013, to December 31, 2017 were analyzed. Clinical progression after diagnosis was defined as having culture-positive sputum at least once or initiation of guideline-based therapy. Then, clinical characteristics were compared between clinically progressed patients and stable patients.
    Results: Ninety-three pulmonary MAC patients diagnosed by bronchoscopy were included in the analysis. During the 4-year period after diagnosis, 38 patients (40.9%) started treatment, and 35 patients (37.6%) had new culture-positive sputum. Consequently, 52 patients (55.9%) were classified into the progressed group, and 41 patients (44.1%) were classified into the stable group. There were no significant differences between the progressed and the stable groups in age, body mass index, smoking status, comorbidities, symptoms, or species isolated from bronchoscopy. On multivariate analysis, male sex, monocyte to lymphocyte ratio (MLR) ≥ 0.17, and the presence of combined lesions in the middle (lingula) and lower lobes were risk factors for clinical progression.
    Conclusions: Some patients with pulmonary MAC disease without culture-positive sputum progress within 4 years. Therefore, pulmonary MAC patients, especially male patients, having higher MLR or lesions in the middle (lingula) and lower lobes might need careful follow-up for a longer time.

    Abstract In recent years, the incidence and prevalence of pulmonary nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) disease have increased worldwide. Although the reasons for this increase are unclear, dealing with this disease is essential. Pulmonary NTM disease is a chronic pulmonary infection caused by NTM bacteria, which are ubiquitous in various environments. In Japan, Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare complex (MAC) accounts for approximately 90% of the causative organisms of pulmonary NTM disease, which is also called pulmonary MAC disease or pulmonary MAI disease. It is important to elucidate the pathophysiology of this disease, which occurs frequently in postmenopausal women despite the absence of obvious immunodeficiency. The pathophysiology of this disease has not been fully elucidated; however, it can largely be divided into bacterial (environmental) and host-side problems. The host factors can be further divided into immune and airway problems. The authors suggest that the triangular relationship between bacteria, immunity, and the airway is important in the pathophysiology of this disease. The latest findings on the pathophysiology of pulmonary NTM disease are reviewed.

    Abstract The programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) and programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) pathway could affect antimicrobial immune responses by suppressing T cell activity. Several recent studies demonstrated that blocking of the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway exacerbated Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. However, the effect of blocking this pathway in pulmonary Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare complex (MAC) infection is not fully understood. Wild-type, PD-1-deficient mice, and PD-L1-deficient mice were intranasally infected with Mycobacterium avium bacteria. Depletion of PD-1 or PD-L1 did not affect mortality and bacterial burden in MAC-infected mice. However, marked infiltration of CD8-positive T lymphocytes was observed in the lungs of PD-1 and PD-L1-deficient mice compared to wild-type mice. Comprehensive transcriptome analysis showed that levels of gene expressions related to Th1 immunity did not differ according to the genotypes. However, genes related to the activity of CD8-positive T cells and related chemokine activity were upregulated in the infected lungs of PD-1 and PD-L1-deficient mice. Thus, the lack of change in susceptibility to MAC infection in PD-1 and PD-L1-deficient mice might be explained by the absence of obvious changes in the Th1 immune response. Furthermore, activated CD8-positive cells in response to MAC infection in these mice seemed to not be relevant in the control of MAC infection.

    Abstract A 24-year-old man with a history of bloody sputum for 6 months was referred to our hospital with suspected alveolar hemorrhaging due to vasculitis. Chest computed tomography showed ground-glass opacities in both lungs, and an examination of his bronchoalveolar lavage fluid showed alveolar hemorrhaging. However, no evidence of vasculitis was found, and subsequent polysomnographic testing confirmed that he had severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Since the alveolar hemorrhaging improved after the initiation of continuous positive airway pressure treatment, the diagnosis was negative-pressure alveolar hemorrhaging due to severe OSA.
