Acute, Distribution, and Subchronic Toxicological Studies of Succinate Tartrates

The estimated single-dose oral toxicity (50% lethality) of succinatetartrates (ST) was 2–3 g/kg in rats. ST produced minimalto moderate dermal irritation but no evidence of systemic toxicityin a standard acute percutaneous toxicity test in rabbits. STwas not an eye irritant in a standard rabbit low-volume eyeirritation test ST was not genotoxic in a series of six genotoxicitytests. A 14-day oral gavage study in rats at a dose range of0.05–1.0 g ST/kg/day produced only gastric irritation.The no-observed-effect level (NOEL) for gastric irritation was0.1 g/kg for males and 0.05 g/kg for females. A 28-day percutaneoustoxicity study in rabbits produced minimal to moderate dermalirritation and no adverse systemic effects at a high dose of450 mg ST/kg/day. Single-dose absorption, distribution, andelimination (ADE) studies in male rats showed that 10–15%of an oral dose and 1–3% of a dermal dose were absorbed.Approximately 98% of the orally administered ST was eliminatedas ¹⁴C in urine, feces, or expired CO₂ after 72 hr. Approximately80% of the dermally absorbed ¹⁴C dose was eliminated in urine,feces, or expired CO₂ after 72 hr. In conclusion, no adverseeffects were noted in acute toxicity, genotoxicity, or subchronictoxicity studies conducted with ST.

The Cross-Reactive Idiotopes Recognized by the Monoclonal Antibodies 9G4 and LCI are Located in Framework Region 1 of Two Non-Overlapping Subsets of Human VH4 Family Encoded Antibodies

The monoclonal anti-idiotopic antibodies LCI and 9G4 bind two non-overlapping sets of V_H4 encoded antibodies. 9G4 exclusively binds V_H4–21 encoded antibodies, while LCI binds antibodies derived from V_H4 family gene segments V71-2, V71-4, V_H4-18, V_H72-I and V2-1. The V_H4–21 gene segment is utilized by most cold agglutinin (CA) antibodies with I/i specificity, while antibodies encoded by other V_H4 gene segments are associated not with CA disease, but primarily with rheumatoid-factor (RF) activity.
We previously determined that the idiotope to which 9G4 binds in V_H4-21-derived antibodies is located in framework region l (FR1). In the present study, by using mutational analysis involving individual framework- and complementarity-determining region exchanges between V_H4-2I- and V71-2-encoded antibodies, we have found that the idiotope to which LCI binds in V71-2-derived antibodies also maps to FR1. The LC1 idiotope is heavy (H)-chain associated, but requires pairing with a light (L) chain for LCI binding. Recombinant antibodies composed of a variety of kappa (k) and lambda L chains paired with either a V71-2 or V_H4–21 chain were produced in the baculovirus expression system. LCI bound all of the k-containing antibodies but did not bind the V71-2-encoded H chain alone nor to the two A-containing antibodies. This experiment demonstrates that not all light chains exert equivalent influence on the conformation of the H-chain idiotope. These results indicate that the FR1 of V_H4-encoded antibodies is immunogenic and suggest a physiological role of FR l during an immune response.

Clinicopathologic features and incidence of invasive lobular carcinoma in Japanese women

Intending to clarify the true Incidence of Invasive lobular carcinoma of the breast In Japanese women as well as the frequency of unilateral multlcentriclty, 362 cases of clinically defined monocentrlc breast cancer without pre-operative biopsy (previously fine needle aspiration or needle biopsy were routinely carried out for every case) were examined by whole mammary gland serial sectioning. On the basis of pathology and the World Health Organization classification of breast tumors, each case was assigned to one of two main histologlc types: Invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) or Invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC). Invasive lobular carcinoma was further separated into classic and variant types by employing previously published criteria. Twenty-one cases of ILC (5.8%) were diagnosed, which Is more than In most previous Japanese studies. Unilateral multicentric breast carcinoma was detected In 9.5% of ILC and 16.1% of IDC (the difference was found not significant). Microscopically, ILC tumors were found to be, on average, larger than IDC. Patients with classic type ILC tended to be younger than those with variant type or IDC. Estrogen receptor expression was found more frequently In variant type ILC than in classic type. These results suggest that the incidence of invasive lobular carcinoma of the breast In Japanese women is low and that unilateral multicentricity Is not significantly higher in ILC than in IDC.
