Quantitative studies of alkylation of nucleic acid bases have led to values for relative nucleophilicities of their reactive centers toward the diethylethylenimonium ion. The alkylation of native, double-helix DNA by diethylethylenimonium ion for 2 h at 40° and pH 7, followed by hydrolysis, dialysis and chromatography, showed only 7-alkylated guanine. After 48 h, considerable N6-alkylated adenine was also obtained. Since complete denaturation and extensive degradation of DNA occurred under the latter ...

Asthma is characterized by chronic airway inflammation, variable airway narrowing, and sensory nerve irritation, which manifest as wheezing, dyspnea, chest tightness, and cough. Longstanding asthma may result in airway remodeling and become intractable. Despite the increased prevalence of asthma in adults, asthma-associated deaths have decreased in Japan (0.94 per 100,000 people in 2020). The goals of asthma treatment include the control of symptoms and reduction of future risks. A functional partnership ...

Diagnosis of perioperative anaphylaxis is difficult because of its non-specific and variable signs and symptoms. Therapeutic agents used to treat anaphylaxis and anaesthesiologist responses also vary depending on the case, which might affect outcomes; however, only a few studies have focused on these factors.This prospective study of perioperative anaphylaxis, a part of the Japanese Epidemiologic Study for Perioperative Anaphylaxis, investigated the clinical signs, its severity, therapeutic drugs, ...

Background: Allergy to penicillin is commonly reported in many countries and is an overwhelming global public health concern. Penicillin allergy labels can lead to the use of less effective antibiotics and can be associated with antimicrobial resistance. Appropriate assessment of suspected penicillin allergy (often including skin testing, followed by drug provocation testing [DPT] performed by allergists) can prevent the unnecessary restriction of penicillin or delabelling. Many countries in the Asia ...

The mechanism of allergic reactions to COVID-19 mRNA vaccines has not been clarified. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) is a potential antigen in the components of vaccines. However, there is little evidence that allergy after COVID-19 mRNA vaccination is related to PEG. Furthermore, the role of polysorbate (PS) as an antigen has also not been clarified. The objective of this study was to investigate whether PEG and PS allergies are reasonable causes of allergic symptoms after vaccination by detecting PEG- ...

Abstract Drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHRs) to intravenous drugs can be severe and might leave patients and doctors in a difficult position where an essential treatment or intervention has to be suspended. Even if virtually any intravenous medication can potentially trigger a life-threatening DHR, chemotherapeutics, biologics, and antibiotics are amongst the intravenous drugs most frequently involved in these reactions. Admittedly, suspending such treatments may negatively impact the survival outcomes ...

Bronchial asthma is characterized by chronic airway inflammation, which manifests clinically as variable airway narrowing (wheezes and dyspnea) and cough. Long-standing asthma may induce airway remodeling and become intractable. The prevalence of asthma has increased; however, the number of patients who die from it has decreased (1.3 per 100,000 patients in 2018). The goal of asthma treatment is to control symptoms and prevent future risks. A good partnership between physicians and patients is indispensable ...
