The LIM-finger protein Lmo2, which is activated in T cell leukemias by chromosomal translocations, required for yolk sac erythropoiesis. Because Lmo2 null mutant mice die at embryonic day 9–10, it prevents an assessment of a role other stages hematopoiesis. We have now studied the hematopoietic contribution homozygous −/− mouse stem cells and found that do not contribute to any lineage adult chimeric mice, but reintroduction Lmo2-expression vector rescues ability all lineages tested. This...
Merosin is the predominant laminin isoform in basal lamina of striated muscle and peripheral nerve, consists M, B1 or S, B2 chains. Here we have demonstrated that merosin a native ligand for alpha-dystroglycan, an extracellular component dystrophin-glycoprotein complex. We also mapped mouse M chain gene, Lamm, to same region chromosome 10 which dystrophia muscularis (dy) locus has been mapped. The dy mutation represents severe neuromuscular disease resembling human muscular dystrophy....
-based olivine compounds were prepared by the usual ceramic method, where some modifications carried out in order to improve electrical conductivity of cathode compound. Considering that is made up electrochemical active particles and a nonactive polymer binder, two different methods applied. The first one related improvement interparticle conduction, other enhancement particle itself. former was attained with thermal decomposition an organic additive (pyrene) during sample preparation...
A total of 11 species, comprising nine insects and two mites, were recognized as pests pepino plants in our experimental fields Kanagawa Prefecture, central Honshu, Japan. Of these pest the two-spotted spider mite Tetranychus urticae Koch, 1836 cotton aphid Aphis gossypii Glover, 1877, remarkably abundant than other species. Eventually, 13 including previously recorded, are currently With regard to viruses, we tested species Alfalfa mosaic virus (AMV) Cucumber (CMV), well three genera...
The LIM domain protein Lmo2 and the basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor Scl/Tal1 are expressed in early haematopoietic endothelial progenitors interact with each other cells. While loss-of-function studies have shown that essential for haematopoiesis angiogenic remodelling of vasculature, gain-of-function suggested an earlier role specification haemangioblasts, putative bipotential precursors blood endothelium. In zebrafish embryos, can induce these from mesoderm mainly at expense...
The LMO2 gene is activated by chromosomal translocations in human T cell acute leukemias, but mouse embryogenesis, Lmo2 essential for initiation of yolk sac and definitive hematopoiesis. protein comprises two LIM–zinc-finger-like interaction modules functions with specific partners DNA-binding transcription complexes. We have now investigated the role Lmo2-associated complexes formation vascular system following fate -null embryonic stem (ES) cells chimeras. expressed endothelium, ES...
Time lags associated with changes in stable isotope ratios are essential information for quantitatively analyzing shifts of food habits and habitats. To investigate time fish growth a natural setting, we monitored the change δ 15 N muscle tissue fluviallacustrine amphidromous goby, Rhinogobius sp. (the orange form), Lake Biwa water system. Because is distinct between lacustrine fluvial ecosystems, age-0+ drastically decreased after their upstream migration from lake. About 80% was...
We have developed Mass++, a plug-in style visualization and analysis tool for mass spectrometry. Its enables users to customize it develop original functions. Mass++ has several kinds of plug-ins, including rich viewers methods proteomics metabolomics. Plug-ins supporting vendors' raw data are currently available; hence, can read formats. is both desktop software development platform. Original functions be without editing the source code. Here, we present this tool's capability rapidly...
Endothelial cells (ECs), which are a major component of blood vessels, have been reported to develop in adulthood from hematopoietic cell populations, especially those the monocyte lineage. Here we show that mural (MCs), another physiologically during embryogenesis stem (HSC) population, based on vitro culture HSCs and histological examination acute myeloid leukemia 1 mutant embryos, lack HSCs. As embryo, adult bone marrow differentiate into CD45+CD11b+ before differentiating MCs. Moreover,...
In this paper, we present a self-consistent and 3D quantum simulator for Si-nanowire transistors based on the Wigner function model multidimensional Schrodinger-Poisson algorithm. To achieve sufficient numerical accuracy calculating subthreshold current, introduced third-order differencing scheme discretizing drift term in transport equation. By comparing with semiclassical Boltzmann nonequilibrium Green's approaches, validity of is confirmed. We also demonstrate that source-drain tunneling...
Two excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) active benzimidazole derivatives (1 and 2) were synthesized by acid-catalyzed cyclization. The steady-state fluorescence spectrum in THF revealed that ring-fused derivative 1 exhibits a dual emission, namely, the major emission was from K* (keto) form (ESIPT emission) at 515 nm with large Stokes shift of 11 100 cm-1 minor E* (enol) below 400 nm. In contrast, normal dominant quantum yield very low (Φ ∼ 0.002) for nonfused 2....
${}^{27}\mathrm{Al}$ and ${}^{63}\mathrm{Cu}$ NMR measurements in 3% Al-doped ${\mathrm{La}}_{1.85}{\mathrm{Sr}}_{0.15}{\mathrm{CuO}}_{4}$ (LSCO) have revealed that the $T$ dependences of Knight shift, ${}^{27}K(T)$, nuclear-spin-lattice relaxation rate, ${}^{27}(1/{T}_{1})$, are dominated by local moments induced at neighboring Cu sites Al impurity. These experiments prove spin fluctuation is mainly due to spin-exchange coupling, ${J}_{\mathrm{sd}}$, with conducting holes. This novel...
