    Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods and systems for ghost cytometry (GC), which may be used to produce an image of an object without using a spatially resolving detector. This may be used to perform image-free ultrafast fluorescence “imaging” cytometry, based on, for example, a single pixel detector. Spatial information obtained from the motion of cells relative to a patterned optical structure may be compressively converted into signals that arrive sequentially at a single pixel detector. Combinatorial use of the temporal waveform with the intensity distribution of the random or pseudo-random pattern may permit computational reconstruction of cell morphology. Machine learning methods may be applied directly to the compressed waveforms without image reconstruction to enable efficient image-free morphology-based cytometry. Image-free GC may achieve accurate and high throughput cell classification as well as selective sorting based on cell morphology without a specific biomarker, which have been challenging using conventional flow cytometers.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a drug for preventing or treating chronic pain and a method for preventing or treating chronic pain. A pharmaceutical composition comprising a serotonin-3 receptor agonist such as a compound represented by the following formula (I): [wherein: m is an integer of 1 to 4; and R1 is each independently selected from the group consisting of a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a methyl group optionally substituted with 1 to 3 halogen atom(s), a methoxy group optionally substituted with 1 to 3 halogen atom(s), and a methylthio group optionally substituted with 1 to 3 halogen atom(s)] or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is useful for preventing or treating chronic pain. The above pharmaceutical composition is also useful for preventing or treating acute pain. Further, the present invention provides a method for screening a compound for preventing or treating chronic pain, the method comprising measuring a serotonin-3 receptor agonist activity.

    Abstract: Provided is a production method for reassortant influenza virus having genome segments of two or more kinds of influenza virus in the case where an antigenic strain and donor strain have similar antigenicities. The production method makes use of the first influenza virus containing an antigenic protein, the second influenza virus having an antigenic protein having antigenicity similar to that of the strain, and the third influenza virus having an antigenic protein having antigenicity different from that of the strain, and includes the steps of: coculturing the strain and the strain by infecting a host therewith, to produce reassortant influenza viruses; selecting influenza virus having the antigenic protein from the viruses; then coculturing the strain and the selected strain by infecting a host therewith; and selecting influenza virus having the antigenic protein from reassortant influenza viruses produced from the strain and the strain.
