Hydrostatic pressure activates HIF‐1α via β‐catenin to promote stemness in breast cancer cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
To mimic the elevated intestinal fluid pressure in breast cancers, we loaded human breast cancer cells (MCF‐7, MDA‐MB‐453, and BT‐474) to 50 mmHg hydrostatic pressure. Hydrostatic pressure exposure upregulated HIF‐1α and induced stemness in MCF‐7 and BT‐474 cells.

Fiber and Dietary Fiber

Nippon Shokuhin Kagaku Kogaku Kaishi, 2011
繊維質とは，自然に放置しても分解されにくく，動物によっても消化されにくい成分のことを指す．本来，ヒトの消化酵素で消化されない繊維質は，生理的意義が低い非栄養素とされてきたが，難消化性の繊維質はヒトの健康維持に重要な役割を果たすことが次第に知られるようになった．食物繊維とは多糖類のひとつであるが，日本食品標準成分表2010では「ヒトの消化酵素で消化されない食品中の難消化性成分の総体」と定義されている．ヒトの炭水化物消化酵素であるアミラーゼは，デンプンを構成している糖分子のα結合を分解できるが，食物繊維を形成しているβ結合を分解する能力がない．従来，食物繊維はエネルギー源にならないと考えられていたが，実際は，消化されない食物繊維の一部が腸内細菌により発酵分解されて短鎖脂肪酸とガスになるため ...

Hyperactive ice‐binding proteins stabilize cell membranes and improve resistance to dehydration stress in Caenorhabditis elegans

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
TisIBP8, a fungal‐derived hyperactive ice‐binding protein, helps Caenorhabditis elegans survive dehydration. It localizes near cell membranes, reduces cell damage, and helps maintain membrane structure during drying. These results suggest that ice‐binding proteins can protect cells from dehydration stress as well as freezing stress.

Immune‐Driven Expression in Inclusion Body Myositis With T‐Cell Large Granular Lymphocytic Leukemia

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives T‐cell large granular lymphocytic leukemia (T‐LGLL), reported in up to 58% of inclusion body myositis (IBM) patients, is a rare leukemia of cytotoxic or less commonly helper T cells. The range of myopathies in T‐LGLL and the impact of coexisting T‐LGLL in IBM are not well understood. Our objectives are to investigate the spectrum of

Integrative transcriptome and proteome analyses provide new insights into different stages of Akebia trifoliata fruit cracking during ripening

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2020
Background Akebia trifoliata (Thunb.) Koidz may have applications as a new potential source of biofuels owing to its high seed count, seed oil content, and in-field yields. However, the pericarp of A.

Long-distance frequency transfer over an urban fiber link using optical phase stabilization

, 2008
We transferred the frequency of an ultra-stable laser over 86 km of urban fiber. The link is composed of two cascaded 43-km fibers connecting two laboratories, LNE-SYRTE and LPL in Paris area.

Whole‐Body Pattern of Muscle Degeneration and Progression in Sarcoglycanopathies

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To characterize whole‐body intramuscular fat distribution pattern in patients with sarcoglycanopathies and explore correlations with disease severity, duration and age at onset. Methods Retrospective, cross‐sectional, multicentric study enrolling patients with variants in one of the four sarcoglycan genes who underwent whole‐body ...
