Journal ArticleDOI
Loss of function of a proline-containing protein confers durable disease resistance in rice.
Shuichi Fukuoka,Norikuni Saka,Hironori Koga,Kazuko Ono,Takehiko Shimizu,Kaworu Ebana,Nagao Hayashi,Akira Takahashi,Hirohiko Hirochika,Kazutoshi Okuno,Masahiro Yano +10 more
TL;DR: The cloning of a previously unknown type of gene that confers non–race-specific resistance to blast disease and its successful use in breeding is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lesion mimic mutants of rice with alterations in early signaling events of defense.
Akira Takahashi,Tsutomu Kawasaki,Kenji Henmi,Katsuhiko Shii,Osamu Kodama,Hikaru Satoh,Ko Shimamoto +6 more
TL;DR: Results suggest that biochemical lesions of cdr1 and cdr2 lie in the early signaling steps leading to activation of the NADPH oxidase and that type-1 protein phosphatase is operative in protein dephosphorylation involved in NAD PH oxidase activation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical Efficacy of Fidarestat, a Novel Aldose Reductase Inhibitor, for Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy: A 52-week multicenter placebo-controlled double-blind parallel group study
Nigishi Hotta,Takayoshi Toyota,Kempei Matsuoka,Yukio Shigeta,Ryuichi Kikkawa,Toshio Kaneko,Akira Takahashi,Sugimura K,Yasuo Koike,Jun Ishii,Nobuo Sakamoto +10 more
TL;DR: The effects of fidarestat-treatment on nerve conduction and the subjective symptoms of diabetic neuropathy provide evidence that this treatment alters the progression of diabetes neuropathy.
Journal ArticleDOI
A rice fungal MAMP-responsive MAPK cascade regulates metabolic flow to antimicrobial metabolite synthesis
Mitsuko Kishi-Kaboshi,Kazunori Okada,Leona Kurimoto,Shinya Murakami,Toshiaki Umezawa,Naoto Shibuya,Hisakazu Yamane,Akio Miyao,Hiroshi Takatsuji,Akira Takahashi,Hirohiko Hirochika +10 more
TL;DR: The OsMKK4–OsMPK6 cascade plays a crucial role in reprogramming plant metabolism during MAMP-triggered defense responses and induces dynamic changes of metabolic flow from glycolysis to secondary metabolite biosynthesis while suppressing basic cellular activities.
Journal ArticleDOI
RAR1 and HSP90 Form a Complex with Rac/Rop GTPase and Function in Innate-Immune Responses in Rice
Nguyen Phuong Thao,Letian Chen,Ayako Nakashima,Shin-ichiro Hara,Kenji Umemura,Akira Takahashi,Ken Shirasu,Tsutomu Kawasaki,Ko Shimamoto +8 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that Rac1, RAR1, HSP90, and HSP70 form one or more protein complexes in rice cells and suggest that these proteins play important roles in innate immunity in rice.
