BackgroundPerfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoate (PFOA) are man-made, ubiquitous, persistent contaminants in the environment, wildlife, humans. Although recent studies have shown that these chemicals interfere with fetal growth humans, results inconsistent.ObjectivesOur goal was to investigate correlation between relatively low levels of PFOS PFOA maternal serum birth weight size.MethodsWe conducted a hospital-based prospective cohort study July 2002 October 2005 Sapporo,...
Hermaphroditic freshwater clams in the genus Corbicula produce non-reductional spermatozoa. The DNA content of spermatozoa was almost identical with that somatic cells C. leana from Mie Prefecture, Japan. aff. fluminea Saga Prefecture and Taiwan also On other hand, dioecious sandai had half found cells. Analysis chromosome numbers suggests (3n = 54 18 meiotic cells) (2n 36 gills bivalents are triploids diploids, respectively. leana, fluminea, may lack either first or second meiosis,...
Maternal smoking during pregnancy can result in both complications and reduced size of the fetus neonate. Among women who smoke, genetic susceptibility to tobacco smoke also is a likely causative factor adverse outcomes. A prospective cohort study was conducted among 460 pregnant delivered live singletons Sapporo, Japan, from 2002 2005. Multiple linear regression models were used estimate associations maternal polymorphisms two genes encoding N-nitrosamine-metabolizing enzymes—NAD(P)H:...
Abstract Objective: Higher quality dietary patterns such as healthy/prudent and Mediterranean have been protectively associated with depression. This study examined whether healthy Japanese patterns, which differ from derived Western areas, are depressive symptoms among women. Design: A cross-sectional (the Nagano Nutrition Health Study). Depressive were assessed using the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale. Dietary a principal component analysis of consumption fifty-six food...
Hibernation-specific protein (HP) is a plasma that regulates hibernation in chipmunks. The HP complex (HP20c) consists of three homologous proteins, HP20, HP25 and HP27, all produced by liver belonging to the C1q family. To date, HP20c has not been identified any mammalian species except chipmunk ground squirrel hibernators. Here, we report bovine HP20 gene isolated from tissue aortic endothelial cells. Total homology between variants was 63% at amino acid level. Gene expression highest...
科学技術庁編「日本食品食物繊維成分表」及び地方衛生研究所全国協議会編「食物繊維成分表」を用い, 両成分表の成分値の差異を比較検討した。更に, 両成分表を用いて女子学生の食物摂取調査から食物繊維摂取量を算出し, どの程度の差異を生じるかを検討した。結果は以下のとおりであった。1)「科技庁編成分表」に収載されている食品数は227品目,「地衛研編成分表」の食品数は231品目, 両成分表に共通の食品数は119品目であった。2)「科技庁編成分表」には植物性食品の分析値が多く収載され,「地衛研編成分表」にのみ動物性食品の分析値が収載されていた。3)「科技庁編成分表」及び「地衛研編成分表」を用いて算出した女子学生1人1日当たりの食物繊維摂取量は, それぞれ13.62gと13.42gで, ほとんど差異はなかった。4)「科技庁編成分表」を用いて算出した女子学生1人1日当たりの水溶性及び不溶性食物繊維摂取量は, それぞれ2.51gと10.77gであった。以上の結果のように,...
