TL;DR: It is shown that IgA class-switch recombination (CSR) is impaired in inducible-nitric-oxide-synthase-deficient (iNOS-/-; gene also called Nos2) mice, and the presence of a naturally occurring TNF-α/iNos-producing dendritic-cell subset may explain the predominance of IgA production in the MALT, critical for gut homeostasis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prominent Role for Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cells in Mucosal T Cell-Independent IgA Induction
TL;DR: A critical role is shown for pDCs in T cell-independent (TI) IgA production by B cells in the gut-associated lymphoid tissues in the GALT, which may lead to improvements in vaccination strategies and treatment for mucosal-related disorders.

Regional variations in labor force behavior of women in Japan
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used cross-sectional data to investigate regional differences in women's participation in the labor market and found that women with children participate as regular full-time employees in the northern coastal region of Japan.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Equal Employment Opportunity Law and labor force behavior of women in Japan
TL;DR: The authors used repeated cross-sectional data to investigate the impact of the Equal Employment Opportunity Law (EEOL) for men and women enacted in 1986 on labor force behavior of women and found that regular employment among women, examined separately by education and marital status, did not increase after the enactment of the EEOL.

Temperature-dependent sex differentiation in goldfish: Establishing the temperature-sensitive period and effect of constant and fluctuating water temperatures
TL;DR: Water temperature can play an important role in the process of sex differentiation in goldfish, as has been seen in other teleosts and reptiles, and be applied to aquaculture as a tool for control of sex.
