[Clinical aspects of abnormal eye movements].
This paper reviews a variety of abnormal eye movements which include abnormal ocular positions, restricted eye motions, impairment of conjugated eye movements, abnormal smooth pursuit, abnormal saccade, gaze-evoked nystagmus, down-beat nystagmus, internuclear ophthalmoplegia, supranuclear ophthalmoplegia, square wave jerks, roving eye movement, ocular bobbing, ocular dipping, reverse ocular bobbing, and ping-pong gaze. Abnormal eye movements occur from stroke, spinocerebellar degeneration, Parkinson disease, multiple system atrophy, progressive supranuclear palsy, multiple sclerosis, Miller Fisher syndrome, myasthenia gravis, opsoclonus-polymyoclonia syndrome, and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. In neurological practice, it is important to observe abnormal eye movements accurately and enthusiastically, to make appropriate anatomical and etiological diagnosis.

In situ phage screening. A method for identification of subnanogram tissue components in situ.
We have established a novel method, in situ phage screening (ISPS), to identify proteins in tissue microstructures. The method is based on the selection of repertoires of phage-displayed antibody fragments with small samples of tissues microdissected using a laser. Using a human muscle frozen section with an area of 4800 microm2 as a model target, we successfully selected monoclonal antibody fragments directed against three major (myosin heavy chain, actin, and tropomyosin-alpha) and one minor (alpha-actinin 2) muscle constituent proteins. These proteins were present in the sample in amounts less than one nanogram, and the antibodies were used to visualize the proteins in situ. This shows that the use of ISPS can obtain monoclonal antibodies for histochemical and biochemical purposes against minute amounts of proteins from microstructures with no requirement for large amounts of samples or biochemical efforts.
