Journal ArticleDOI
Tudor domain containing 12 (TDRD12) is essential for secondary PIWI interacting RNA biogenesis in mice
Radha Raman Pandey,Yoshimi Tokuzawa,Zhaolin Yang,Eri Hayashi,Tomoko Ichisaka,Shimpei Kajita,Yuka Asano,Tetsuo Kunieda,Ravi Sachidanandam,Shinichiro Chuma,Shinya Yamanaka,Ramesh S. Pillai +11 more
TL;DR: TDRD12 is identified as a unique piRNA biogenesis factor in mice and its importance for transposon silencing is demonstrated and a role for the multidomain protein in mediating complex formation with other participants during secondary pi RNA biogenesis is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Paper-based diagnostic devices for evaluating the quality of human sperm
Koji Matsuura,Kuan-Hung Chen,Cheng-Han Tsai,Wenqian Li,Yuka Asano,Keiji Naruse,Chao-Min Cheng +6 more
TL;DR: An inexpensive but robust and easy-to-handle device for monitoring the health status of human sperm made by patterning a piece of paper and measuring the activity of a specific enzyme—a simple and elegant solution is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of Micrococcus luteus biofilm formation in microfluidic environments by pH measurement using an ion-sensitive field-effect transistor.
TL;DR: An ion-sensitive field-effect transistor (ISFET) measurement system is used to detect biofilm formation in clinical and industrial microfluidic environments by detecting alkalinization of the culture medium.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new ENU-induced mutant mouse with defective spermatogenesis caused by a nonsense mutation of the syntaxin 2/epimorphin (Stx2/Epim) gene.
Kouyou Akiyama,Shiho Akimaru,Yuka Asano,Maryam Khalaj,Chiyo Kiyosu,A. A. Masoudi,Sakino Takahashi,Kentaro Katayama,Kentaro Katayama,Takehito Tsuji,Junko Noguchi,Tetsuo Kunieda +11 more
TL;DR: The male infertility of the repro34/repro34 mouse is caused by the interruption of spermatogenesis during transition from the sper matocyte to sperMatid, and the nonsense mutation of the Stx2/Epim gene is responsible for the interruption.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical and pathological aspects of hemophilia a in Japanese Brown cattle
Yasuo Moritomo,Kenichi Shimojo,Keiko Miyadera,Maryam Khalaj,Yuka Asano,Tetsuo Kunieda,Hiroyuki Ogawa +6 more
TL;DR: These are the first bovine cases of hemophilia A definitely diagnosed clinicopathologically in male Japanese Brown calves of the same dam.
