Journal ArticleDOI
Galectin-9 in physiological and pathological conditions.
Mitsuomi Hirashima,Yumiko Kashio,Nozomu Nishi,Akira Yamauchi,Tadaatsu Imaizumi,Toshiro Kageshita,Naoki Saita,Takanori Nakamura +7 more
TL;DR: The possible role of Gal-9 in physiological and pathological conditions by using the recent findings is shown by using its recent findings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of highly stable galectins: truncation of the linker peptide confers protease-resistance on tandem-repeat type galectins.
Nozomu Nishi,Aiko Itoh,Aimi Fujiyama,Naoko Yoshida,Shin-ichi Araya,Mitsuomi Hirashima,Hiroki Shoji,Takanori Nakamura +7 more
TL;DR: To increase protease resistance, mutant proteins prepared by serial truncation of the linker peptide were found to be highly stable against proteolysis and retained their biological activities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Galectin-8 modulates neutrophil function via interaction with integrin αM
Nozomu Nishi,Hiroki Shoji,Masako Seki,Aiko Itoh,Hiroshi Miyanaka,Kouichi Yuube,Mitsuomi Hirashima,Takanori Nakamura +7 more
TL;DR: Results suggest that galectin-8 is a novel factor that modulates the neutrophil function related to transendothelial migration and microbial killing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of Galectin-9-Induced Death of Jurkat T Cells
Lianghao Lu,Ryusuke Nakagawa,Yumiko Kashio,Aiko Ito,Hiroki Shoji,Nozomu Nishi,Mitsuomi Hirashima,Akira Yamauchi,Takanori Nakamura +8 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest that caspase-dependent and-independent death pathways exist in Jurkat cells, and the main pathway might vary with the T-cell type.
Journal ArticleDOI
Crystal Structure of the Galectin-9 N-terminal Carbohydrate Recognition Domain from Mus musculus Reveals the Basic Mechanism of Carbohydrate Recognition
Masamichi Nagae,Nozomu Nishi,Takeomi Murata,Taichi Usui,Takanori Nakamura,Soichi Wakatsuki,Ryuichi Kato +6 more
TL;DR: The crystal structures of mouse galectin-9 N-terminal CRD (NCRD) in the absence and the presence of four ligand complexes are reported, and the structure of the N-acetyllactosamine dimer shows a unique binding mode of galectIn-9.
