Journal ArticleDOI
Suppressive effect of dietary raffinose on T-helper 2 cell-mediated immunity.
Taizo Nagura,Satoshi Hachimura,Masaaki Hashiguchi,Yoshihiro Ueda,Takashi Kanno,Hiroto Kikuchi,Kouji Sayama,Shuichi Kaminogawa +7 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that dietary raffinose suppresses serum immunoglobulin E response through suppression of Th2-type immune response against oral antigen in the lymphoid organs located in or near the intestine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gastric Colonization of Candida albicans Differs in Mice Fed Commercial and Purified Diets
TL;DR: It is suggested that a reduction in lactobacilli in the stomach of mice fed the purified diet contributed to sustained gastric candidiasis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reduction of allergic airway eosinophilia by dietary raffinose in Brown Norway rats.
Hiroshi Watanabe,Kei Sonoyama,Jun Watanabe,Natsu Yamaguchi,Hiroto Kikuchi,Taizo Nagura,Tsutomu Aritsuka,Kyoko Fukumoto,Takanori Kasai +8 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest that dietary raffinose ameliorates allergic airway eosinophilia at least partly via post-absorptive mechanisms in Brown Norway rats.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of dietary supplementation with betaine on a nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) mouse model.
Sakura Kawakami,Kyu-Ho Han,Yumi Nakamura,Ken-ichiro Shimada,Tomoko Kitano,Tsutomu Aritsuka,Taizo Nagura,Kiyoshi Ohba,Kimihide Nakamura,Michihiro Fukushima +9 more
TL;DR: The potential of betaine to serve as an agent for amelioration of hepatic steatosis in NASH model mice is indicated, with an inhibitory effect on fat accumulation in the liver.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dietary Melibiose Regulates Th Cell Response and Enhances the Induction of Oral Tolerance
Kyoko Tomita,Taizo Nagura,Yasuhide Okuhara,Haruyo Nakajima-Adachi,Norihiro Shigematsu,Tsutomu Aritsuka,Shuichi Kaminogawa,Satoshi Hachimura +7 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that dietary melibiose strongly affected the Th cell responses to an ingested antigen, and the potential ofmelibiose to enhance the induction of oral tolerance is demonstrated.
