Homeostasis of element composition is one the central concepts ecological stoichiometry. In this context, homeostasis resistance to change consumer body in response chemical consumer's food. To simplify theoretical analysis, it has generally been assumed that autotrophs exhibit flexibility their composition, while heterotrophs are confined a constant (strictly homeostatic) composition. Yet, recent studies suggest not universally strictly homeostatic. We examined degree which and regulate...
The effect of R$50D on productivity growth in Japanese manufacturing industries is examined. Using more accurate firm expenditure data than widely used based financial statements, series capital are constructed. Then, rate return investment estimated. In addition, the impact other industries' an industry also An attempt made to determine electronics technology upon through transaction intermediate goods with improved quality, and diffusion new technological knowledge discovered. Technology...
Abstract The fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster is a good model to unravel the molecular mechanisms of innate immunity and has led some important discoveries about sensing signaling microbial infections. response virus infections remains poorly characterized appears involve two facets. On one hand, RNA interference involves recognition processing dsRNA into small interfering RNAs by host RNase Dicer-2 (Dcr-2), whereas, on other an inducible controlled evolutionarily conserved JAK-STAT pathway...
Examples of parallel evolution phenotypic traits have been repeatedly demonstrated in threespine sticklebacks (Gasterosteus aculeatus) across their global distribution. Using these as a model, we performed targeted genome scan--focusing on physiologically important genes potentially related to freshwater adaptation--to identify genetic signatures physiological scale. To this end, 50 microsatellite loci, including 26 loci within or close (<6 kb) genes, were screened paired marine and...
Abstract Dendritic cells (DCs) loaded with α-galactosylceramide (α-GalCer) are known to be active APCs for the stimulation of innate NKT and NK cell responses in vivo. In this study, we evaluated capacity non-DCs present α-GalCer vitro vivo, particularly tumor (tumor/Gal). Even though lacked expression CD40, CD80, CD86 costimulatory molecules, i.v. injection tumor/Gal resulted IFN-γ secretion by cells. These tumor/Gal, including induction IL-12p70, were comparable or better than...
Recently, we identified the SecA and SecY proteins in cyanobacterium Synechococcus PCC7942. Antibodies raised against cyanobacterial specifically reacted with a 110-kDa protein of pea chloroplasts, suggesting presence higher plant chloroplasts. A part secA cDNA was polymerase chain reaction-amplified degenerated oligonucleotide primers as template. The deduced amino acid sequence shows 62% identity 52% Escherichia coli SecA. fragment, which expressed E. cells from obtained cDNA, chloroplast...
We identified a novel Drosophila protein of ≈ 400kDa, hemolectin (d-Hml), secreted from haemocyte-derived Kc167 cells. Its 11.7kbp cDNA contains an open reading frame 3843 amino acid residues, with conserved domains in von Willebrand factor (VWF), coagulation V/VIII and complement factors. The d-hml gene is located on the third chromosome (position 70C1-5) consists 26 exons. major part d-Hml well-known motifs organization:...
The cellular origin, in vivo function and fate of donor bone marrow-derived cells residing the recipient intestinal epithelial cells, pericryptal myofibroblasts or endothelial remain obscure. Although 'immunoprivileged' mesenchymal stem (MSCs) are prime candidates for cell- gene-based therapy, their precise role colitis remains largely undetermined. Using a dextran sulphate sodium (DSS) with busulphan (BU)-induced hypoplastic marrow model, we examined therapeutic effects MSC transplantation,...
