Journal ArticleDOI
Anti-Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein-1 Gene Therapy Attenuates Renal Injury Induced by Protein-Overload Proteinuria
Hideaki Shimizu,Shoichi Maruyama,Yukio Yuzawa,Tomomi Kato,Yusuke Miki,Satoshi Suzuki,Waichi Sato,Yoshiki Morita,Hiroki Maruyama,Kensuke Egashira,Seiichi Matsuo +10 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that MCP-1 plays an important role in the development of tubulointerstitial inflammation, tubular damage, and fibrosis induced by proteinuria, and the fact that 7ND gene therapy had little effect on the contralateral kidney indicates that7ND acted locally.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of human soluble thrombomodulin on experimental glomerulonephritis.
Hiroshi Ikeguchi,Shoichi Maruyama,Yoshiki Morita,Yutaka Fujita,Tomomi Kato,Yasuhiro Natori,Hiroyasu Akatsu,William Campbell,Noriko Okada,Hidechika Okada,Yukio Yuzawa,Seiichi Matsuo +11 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that RHS-TM, in addition to its anti-thrombotic action, may exert itsAnti-inflammatory properties by converting proCPR to CPR, which then inactivates anaphylatoxins.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular Cloning and Partial Characterization of Rat Procarboxypeptidase R and Carboxypeptidase N
Tomomi Kato,Hiroyasu Akatsu,Tomoo Sato,Seiichi Matsuo,Takayuki Yamamoto,William Campbell,Nigishi Hotta,Noriko Okada,Hidechika Okada +8 more
TL;DR: Rat proCPR and CPN cDNA clones which can induce enzymatic activities in culture supernatants of the transfected cells are isolated and expression ofproCPR mRNA was enhanced following LPS injection, indicating that proC PR production is increased under inflammatory conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pigment pattern formation in the quail mutant of the silkworm, Bombyx mori: parallel increase of pteridine biosynthesis and pigmentation of melanin and ommochromes.
TL;DR: Results strongly suggest that pteridine biosynthesis is closely linked to the formation of melanin and ommochromes, and it is suggested here that in the silkworm a recessive gene (q) may be involved in the regulation of its pigment pattern formation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Casein kinase 2 during early embryonic development in silkworm Bombyx mori: cDNA sequence, gene expression, and enzyme activity.
TL;DR: The results suggest that the changes in CK2 activity are regulated mainly at the level of post-transcription during embryonic development in Bombyx mori.
