Effect of Repetitive Glucose Spike and Hypoglycaemia on Atherosclerosis and Death Rate in Apo E-Deficient Mice.

International journal of endocrinology

Nakajima K, Mita T, Osonoi Y, Azuma K, Takasu T, Fujitani Y, Watada H.
PMID: 26366172
Int J Endocrinol. 2015;2015:406394. doi: 10.1155/2015/406394. Epub 2015 Aug 20.

Epidemiological data suggest that postprandial hyperglycaemia and hypoglycaemia are potential risk factors for cardiovascular disease. However, the effects of repetitive postprandial glucose spikes, repetitive hypoglycaemia, and their combination on the progression of atherosclerosis remain largely unknown. The present study...

Neuropsychiatr Dis Treat. 2017 Oct 05;13:2559-2568. doi: 10.2147/NDT.S144788. eCollection 2017.

BACKGROUND: Recent studies have suggested that multiple factors interact with the onset and prognosis of major depressive disorders. In this study, we investigated how child abuse, affective temperaments, and interpersonal sensitivity are interrelated, and how they affect depressive symptoms...

PMID: 24948758
Genome Announc. 2014 Jun 19;2(3). doi: 10.1128/genomeA.00556-14.

Burkholderia sp. strain RPE67 is a bacterial symbiont isolated from a field-collected bean bug, Riptortus pedestris. To understand the genetic basis of the insect-microbe symbiosis, we performed whole-genome sequencing of the Burkholderia strain, revealing an 8.69-Mb genome consisting of...

Revisiting the identification and cDNA cloning of T cell-replacing factor/interleukin-5.

Frontiers in immunology

Takatsu K.
PMID: 25566252
Front Immunol. 2014 Dec 23;5:639. doi: 10.3389/fimmu.2014.00639. eCollection 2014.

This is a perspective based on the paper "Cloning of complementary DNA encoding T cell-replacing factor and identity with B cell growth factor II," by Kinashi et al. (1). We have been interested in understanding the molecular basis of...

Decreased SIRT1 expression and LKB1 phosphorylation occur with long-term high-fat diet feeding, in addition to AMPK phosphorylation impairment in the early phase.

Obesity research & clinical practice

Yoneda M, Guo Y, Ono H, Nakatsu Y, Zhang J, Cui X, Iwashita M, Kumamoto S, Tsuchiya Y, Sakoda H, Fujishiro M, Kushiyama A, Koketsu Y, Kikuchi T, Kamata H, Nishimura F, Asano T.
PMID: 24345663
Obes Res Clin Pract. 2010 Jul-Sep;4(3):e163-246. doi: 10.1016/j.orcp.2010.02.002.

AIMS: Energy sensing systems including AMPK and SIRT1 play important roles in the regulation of hepatic gluconeogenesis and fatty acid oxidation. In this study, we investigated how hepatic LKB1-AMPK signaling and SIRT1 expression are altered after 2 or 8...

High-fat diet feeding significantly attenuates anagliptin-induced regeneration of islets of Langerhans in streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice.

Diabetology & metabolic syndrome

Shinjo T, Nakatsu Y, Iwashita M, Sano T, Sakoda H, Ishihara H, Kushiyama A, Fujishiro M, Nishimura F, Asano T.
PMID: 26097511
Diabetol Metab Syndr. 2015 Jun 02;7:50. doi: 10.1186/s13098-015-0047-y. eCollection 2015.

BACKGROUND: DPP-4 inhibitors reportedly exert effects on both alpha and beta cells, and promote the proliferation and survival of beta cells. We investigated the effects of anagliptin on structurally-impaired islets of Langerhans in streptozotocin (STZ)-treated mice, fed either a...

Extracorporeal abdominal massage may help prevent recurrent bile duct stones after endoscopic sphincterotomy.

Endoscopy international open

Uchida N, Hamaya S, Tatsuta M, Nakatsu T.
PMID: 27540575
Endosc Int Open. 2016 Aug;4(8):E870-3. doi: 10.1055/s-0042-109774. Epub 2016 Aug 09.

BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS: Endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) is effective, but recurrent bile duct stones are a common late complication. Because there are still no effective therapies for preventing this complication, some patients have experienced bile duct stone recurrence many...

Tocotrienol improves learning and memory deficit of aged rats.

Journal of clinical biochemistry and nutrition

Kaneai N, Sumitani K, Fukui K, Koike T, Takatsu H, Urano S.
PMID: 27013777
J Clin Biochem Nutr. 2016 Mar;58(2):114-21. doi: 10.3164/jcbn.15-52. Epub 2016 Feb 05.

To define whether tocotrienol (T-3) improves cognitive deficit during aging, effect of T-3 on learning and memory functions of aged rats was assessed. It was found that T-3 markedly counteracts the decline in learning and memory function in aged...

Opt Express. 2015 Jun 15;23(12):16264-72. doi: 10.1364/OE.23.016264.

We theoretically demonstrate high quality(Q)-factor micropillar cavities at 1.55-μm wavelength based on Si/SiO(2)-InP hybrid structure. An adiabatic design in distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs) improves Q-factor for upto 3 orders of magnitude, while reducing the diameter to sub-micrometer. A moderate...
