The effect of exposure to Japanese cedar pollen (JCP) in early life on subsequent sensitization to it was evaluated. Specific IgE antibody to JCP was examined in 440-504 school children in a rural town each year during 1995-98. The amount of dispersed pollen measured by a Durham sampler widely ranged from 165 to 5941 grains/cm2/year during this period.

Present Situation of Cedar Pollinosis in Japan and its Immune Responses
Recent observations have suggested significant worldwide increase in the prevalence of allergic rhinitis and cedar pollinosis. In Japan, Japanese cedar (Cryptometria japonica) and Japanese cypress (Chamaecyparis obtusa) pollens are considered to be the ...

The impact of low-dose-rate radiation on genetics is largely unknown, particularly in natural environments. The Fukushima Dai-ich Nuclear Power Plant disaster resulted in the creation of contaminated natural lands. In this study, de novo mutations (DNMs)

Daily Japanese cedar pollen forecast in Sendai.
The forecast of daily Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica) pollen counts was performed in Sendai in 1987, 1988 and 1989. The expected daily maximum temperature was used as a main determinative factor, and the term "pollen index", which is a ratio of a daily pollen count to the rest of the total seasonal pollen count, was devised and proved to be ...

Polymerization of Japanese cedar pollen antigen.
In order the immunotherapy of Japanese cedar pollinosis to be more improved, investigations were performed to provide polymerized form of antigen. Preliminary studies have already shown that crude extract was not feasible to be polymerized with glutaraldehyde.

Japanese cedar pollinosis is the predominant seasonal allergic rhinitis in Japan, and it has increased in prevalence during the past 10 years. Sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) is considered a safe and effective treatment for pollinosis. Micro-RNAs (miRNAs)

Deciphering the Impact of RAC1‐SPTAN1 in ARPKD Cystogenesis Using Multifaceted Models
Distal/connecting tubules expressing SLC8A1 have been suggested as a potential origin of ARPKD cysts. SPTAN1 has been identified as a key molecule in ARPKD cyst formation. Restoring SPTAN1 in PKHD1−/− organoids reduced cyst formation, normalized calcium levels, and decreased RAC1/c‐FOS expression, highlighting SPTAN1's role in ARPKD and the potential ...
