Journal ArticleDOI

Shuji Hinuma,Yasushi Shintani,Shoji Fukusumi,Norio Iijima,Yoshio Matsumoto,Masaki Hosoya,Ryo Fujii,Takuya Watanabe,Kuniko Kikuchi,Yasuko Terao,Takahiko Yano,Takanori Yamamoto,Yuji Kawamata,Yugo Habata,Mari Asada,Chieko Kitada,Tsutomu Kurokawa,Haruo Onda,Osamu Nishimura,Masaki Tanaka,Yasuhiko Ibata,Masahiko Fujino +21 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the identification of a human gene that encodes at least three RFamide-related peptides, hRFRP-1-3, has been reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Local inflammation increases vanilloid receptor 1 expression within distinct subgroups of DRG neurons
Fumimasa Amaya,Kentaro Oh-hashi,Yoshihisa Naruse,Norio Iijima,Masashi Ueda,Goshun Shimosato,Makoto Tominaga,Yoshifumi Tanaka,Masaki Tanaka +8 more
TL;DR: Inflammation induced a 1.5-fold increase in percentage of VR1-like immunoreactivity (LI) positive profiles per total neuronal profiles, suggesting that the number of heat and pH sensitive neurons increase during inflammation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neurons expressing relaxin 3/INSL 7 in the nucleus incertus respond to stress
Masaki Tanaka,Norio Iijima,Yasumasa Miyamoto,Shoji Fukusumi,Yasuaki Itoh,Hitoshi Ozawa,Yasuhiko Ibata +6 more
TL;DR: Results suggest that relaxin 3 produced in the NI is released from nerve endings and is involved in the regulation of the stress response.
Journal ArticleDOI
Circadian and light-induced transcription of clock gene Per1 depends on histone acetylation and deacetylation.
TL;DR: It is shown that the state of acetylated histones fluctuated in parallel with the rhythm of mouse Per1 or mPer2 expression in fibroblast cells and liver, indicating that the rhythmic transcription and light induction of clock genes are regulated by histone acetylation and deacetylation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pkd1l1 complexes with Pkd2 on motile cilia and functions to establish the left-right axis
Keiichiro Kamura,Daisuke Kobayashi,Yuka Uehara,Sumito Koshida,Norio Iijima,Akira Kudo,Takahiko Yokoyama,Hiroyuki Takeda +7 more
TL;DR: A new model for the role of cilia in left-right patterning is proposed in which the KV cilia have a dual function: to generate nodal flow and to interpret it through Pkd1l1-Pkd2 complexes.
