Journal ArticleDOI
Isolation and characterization of GBP28, a novel gelatin-binding protein purified from human plasma.
TL;DR: Its adipocyte-specific expression suggests that GBP28 may function as an endogenous factor involved in lipid catabolism and storage or whole body metabolism, and appears to belong to a family of proteins possessing a collagen-like domain through which they form homo-trimers, which further combine to make oligomeric complexes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of Serum High–Molecular Weight (HMW) Adiponectin With Total Adiponectin Concentrations in Type 2 Diabetic Patients With Coronary Artery Disease Using a Novel Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay to Detect HMW Adiponectin
Yoshimasa Aso,Ruriko Yamamoto,Sadao Wakabayashi,Toshihiko Uchida,Kan Takayanagi,Kohzo Takebayashi,Takehiko Okuno,Teruo Inoue,Koichi Node,Takashi Tobe,Toshihiko Inukai,Yasuko Nakano +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, the relationship between serum HMW and coronary artery disease (CAD) in 280 consecutive type 2 diabetic patients, including 59 patients with angiographically confirmed CAD, was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cardioprotective Effects of Short-Term Caloric Restriction Are Mediated by Adiponectin via Activation of AMP-Activated Protein Kinase
TL;DR: The cardioprotective effects of short-term CR are mediated by increased production of adiponectin and the associated activation of AMP-activated protein kinase.
Journal ArticleDOI
SP-40,40 is a constituent of Alzheimer's amyloid.
TL;DR: β-amyloid contained SP-40,40 in a form different from that in the soluble membrane attack complex (SMAC, SC5b-9) of the complement, which contains S-protein as well as SP- 40,40.
Journal ArticleDOI
Purification and Characterization of a Novel Hyaluronan-Binding Protein (PHBP) from Human Plasma: It Has Three EGF, a Kringle and a Serine Protease Domain, Similar to Hepatocyte Growth Factor Activator
Nam-Ho Choi-Miura,Takashi Tobe,Jun-ichi Sumiya,Yasuko Nakano,Yoshihiro Sano,Toshio Mazda,Motowo Tomita +6 more
TL;DR: The amino acid sequence deduced from the nucleotide sequence of the cloned PHBP cDNA exhibited significant homology to that of hepatocyte growth factor activator (HGFA), indicating that PHBP was a novel hyaluronan-binding protein in human plasma.
