Journal ArticleDOI
Mutations in SLC4A4 cause permanent isolated proximal renal tubular acidosis with ocular abnormalities.
Takashi Igarashi,Jun Inatomi,Takashi Sekine,Seok Ho Cha,Yoshikatsu Kanai,Motoei Kunimi,Kazuhisa Tsukamoto,Hiroaki Satoh,Mitsunobu Shimadzu,Fumiko Tozawa,Tetsuo Mori,Masaaki Shiobara,George Seki,Hitoshi Endou +13 more
TL;DR: Mutations in SLC4A4 cause permanent isolated proximal renal tubular acidosis with ocular abnormalities and can lead to blindness in women and severe brain damage in men.
Journal ArticleDOI
Brain α-synuclein accumulation in multiple system atrophy, Parkinson's disease and progressive supranuclear palsy: a comparative investigation
Junchao Tong,Henry Wong,Mark Guttman,Lee C. Ang,Lysia S. Forno,Mitsunobu Shimadzu,Ali H. Rajput,Manfred D. Muenter,Stephen J. Kish,Oleh Hornykiewicz,Yoshiaki Furukawa +10 more
TL;DR: Brain membrane-associated, sodium dodecyl sulfate-soluble alpha-synuclein accumulations in Parkinson's disease and multiple system atrophy are regionally specific, suggesting that these sporadic alpha- Synucleinopathies, unlike familial Parkinsonism-dementia, are not associated with a simple global over-expression of the protein.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new assay for the analysis of X-chromosome inactivation based on methylation-specific PCR.
Takeo Kubota,Shigeaki Nonoyama,Hidefumi Tonoki,Mitsuo Masuno,Kiyoshi Imaizumi,Makiko Kojima,Keiko Wakui,Mitsunobu Shimadzu,Yoshimitsu Fukushima +8 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that M-PCR provides an accurate assay for X-inactivation and that it can be performed on various DNA samples unsuitable for restriction digestion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dystonia with motor delay in compound heterozygotes for GTP-cyclohydrolase I gene mutations
Yoshiaki Furukawa,Stephen J. Kish,E. M. Bebin,R. D. Jacobson,J. S. Fryburg,William G. Wilson,Mitsunobu Shimadzu,Keith Hyland,Joel M. Trugman +8 more
TL;DR: A new phenotype of GCH deficiency associated with compound heterozygosity for GCH gene mutations is demonstrated and the usefulness of combined BH4 and levodopa therapy for this disorder is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Defective membrane expression of the Na+-HCO3− cotransporter NBCe1 is associated with familial migraine
Masashi Suzuki,Wim Van Paesschen,Ingeborg Stalmans,Shoko Horita,Hideomi Yamada,Bruno A. Bergmans,Eric Legius,Florence Riant,Peter De Jonghe,Yuehong Li,Takashi Sekine,Takashi Igarashi,Ichiro Fujimoto,Katsuhiko Mikoshiba,Mitsunobu Shimadzu,Masaaki Shiohara,Nancy Braverman,Lihadh Al-Gazali,Toshiro Fujita,George Seki +19 more
TL;DR: The immunohistological and functional analyses of mutants demonstrate that the near total loss of NBCe1 activity in astrocytes can cause migraine potentially through dysregulation of synaptic pH.
