TL;DR: Detailed molecular modelling analyses indicate that residue 110 of IL-13, the site of the charge-modifying variants Arg and Gln, is important in the internal constitution of the ligand and crucial in ligand-receptor interaction, likely to be important promoters of human asthma.
Journal ArticleDOI
Atrial natriuretic factor inhibits vasopressin secretion from rat posterior pituitary.
Koichi Obana,Mitsuhide Naruse,Tadashi Inagami,Alice B. Brown,Kiyoko Naruse,Fumihiko Kurimoto,Hyoichiro Sakurai,Hiroshi Demura,Kazuo Shizume +8 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that ANF directly acts on the posterior pituitary to inhibit arginine vasopressin secretion and that this effect is, at least, partly mediated by the changes in cyclic nucleotide production.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased Circulating levels of Insulin-like Growth Factor-I and Decreased Circulating levels of Insulin-like Growth Factor Binding Protein-1 in Postmenopausal Women with Endometrial Cancer
Takuya Ayabe,Osamu Tsutsumi,Hideaki Sakai,Hiroyuki Yoshikawa,Tetsu Yano,Fumihiko Kurimoto,Yuji Taketani +6 more
TL;DR: An increased circulating level of IGF-I and a decreased circulating concentration of IGFBP-1 are associated with endometrial cancer especially in postmenopausal women.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plasma Concentrations of Tumor Necrosis Factor-α (TNF-α) and Soluble TNF Receptors in Patients with Anorexia Nervosa1
TL;DR: Plasma concentrations of TNF-α and sTNF-RII after treatment of 8 anorectic patients were not different from those before treatment, although body fat mass and plasma leptin concentrations significantly increased after treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Imbalance production between interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) and IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) in bronchial asthma.
X. Q. Mao,M. Kawai,Tetsuji Yamashita,Tadao Enomoto,Y. Dake,Sei Sasaki,Yoko Kataoka,Takayuki Fukuzumi,Kaoru Endo,Hozumi Sano,Toshiyuki Aoki,Fumihiko Kurimoto,Chaker N. Adra,T. Shirakawa,T. Shirakawa,Julian M. Hopkin +15 more
TL;DR: Findings suggest that dysregulation of IL-1beta/IL-1Ra, probably due to interaction between epithelium and immuno-competent cells in the airway, is important in asthma inflammation.
