Liver lobe and strain difference in gene expression after hydrodynamics-based gene delivery in mice.

Nakamura S1, Maehara T, Watanabe S, Ishihara M, Sato M.
Animal biotechnology.Anim Biotechnol.2015 Jan 2;26(1):51-7. doi: 10.1080/10495398.2014.886583.
Hydrodynamics-based gene delivery (HGD) is a widely recognized technique for delivering exogenous DNA with high efficiency to murine hepatocytes. In this study, we investigated stimulation of exogenous DNA uptake and expression using a commercially available reagent for HGD. We also examined which m

Reciprocal interaction between fish TGF-β1 and IL-1β is responsible for restraining IL-1β signaling activity in grass carp head kidney leukocytes.

Yang X1, Wei H1, Qin L1, Zhang S1, Wang X1, Zhang A1, Du L1, Zhou H2.
Developmental and comparative immunology.Dev Comp Immunol.2014 Dec;47(2):197-204. doi: 10.1016/j.dci.2014.07.023. Epub 2014 Aug 1.
In the present study, we found that recombinant grass carp IL-1β (rgcIL-1β) simultaneously up-regulated grass carp IL-1β (gcIL-1β) and TGF-β1 (gcTGF-β1) expression via NF-κB and MAPK signaling in grass carp head kidney leukocytes (HKLs), promoting us to clarify whether TGF-β1 is an effective

The orexinergic neurons receive synaptic input from C1 cells in rats.

Bochorishvili G1, Nguyen T, Coates MB, Viar KE, Stornetta RL, Guyenet PG.
The Journal of comparative neurology.J Comp Neurol.2014 Dec 1;522(17):3834-46. doi: 10.1002/cne.23643. Epub 2014 Jul 14.
The C1 cells, located in the rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM), are activated by pain, hypoxia, hypoglycemia, infection, and hypotension and elicit cardiorespiratory stimulation, adrenaline and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) release, and arousal. The orexin neurons contribute to the autonomic

Jpn. J. Appl. Phys. 54(4S), 04DL10, 2015-03-27
… In this study, we demonstrated intrinsic signal imaging of blood flow using the device with a green LED light source at a peak wavelength of 535 nm, which corresponds to one of the absorption spectral peaks of blood cells. … The device light weight of about 0.02 g makes it possible to stably measure brain activity through blood flow over a long period. … The device has successfully measured the intrinsic signal related to sensory stimulation on the primary somatosensory cortex. …

3種類の刺激に対する脈波形変化のウェーブレット解析(研究発表,第39回生命情報科学シンポジウム)

足達義則,笹山雪子,上杉一秀
Journal of International Society of Life Information Science 33(1), 53-61, 2015-03-01
生体は、生体維持のため刺激に対して特有な反応を示す。本研究では、刺激として音刺激(音楽)、光刺激(周期的点滅光)、匂い刺激(香水)を取り上げて脈波形の変化を加速度脈波形で計測し、脈波形の時間変化をウェーブレット解析で検討した。当然、個人性が大きく現れるため個々の被験者について一様な値とはならないが、何らかの変化の特徴について検討する。具体的には、RRI時系列データをウェーブレット解析とスペクトル周 …
