Altered energy balance and insulin resistance are important characteristics of aging. Skeletal muscle is a major site of glucose disposal, and the role of aging-associated inflammation in skeletal muscle insulin resistance remains unclear. To investigate, we examined glucose metabolism in 18-mo-old ...
Cabbage is a relatively robust vegetable at low temperatures. However, at high temperatures, cabbage has disadvantages, such as reduced disease tolerance and lower yields. Thus, selection of heat-tolerant cabbage is an important goal in cabbage breeding. Easier or faster selection of superior variet...
FUSE binding protein 1 (Fubp1), a regulator of the c-Myc transcription factor and a DNA/RNA-binding protein, plays important roles in the regulation of gene transcription and cellular physiology. In this study, to reveal the precise developmental function of Fubp1, we examined the deta...
TEA Domain Transcription Factors (TEADs) are important in development and serve essential roles in tumorigenesis; however, the role of TEAD2 expression in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has not been widely examined. The present study was conducted to investigate the expression status of TEAD2 in HCC...

Background

Peyronie's disease (PD) is a severe fibrotic disease of the tunica albuginea that causes penis curvature and leads to penile pain, deformity, and erectile dysfunction. The role of pericytes in the pathogenesis of fibrosis has recently been determined. Extracellular vesicle (EV)-mi...
Neovascularization of the erectile tissue emerges as a beneficial curative approach to treat erectile dysfunction (ED). Here we for the first time report the unexpected role of vasohibin-1 (VASH1), mainly known as an anti-angiogenic factor, in restoring erectile function in diabetic mice. A diabetic...
Phosphorylation of the histone variant H2AX forms γ-H2AX, which serves as a marker of DNA repair response. Here we provide ChIP-seq-based maps of histone H2AX, γ-H2AX, H2AZ, INO80, SRCAP, and RNA polymerase II in activated T cells. Matched data for H2AX and γ-H2AX in resting T cells and Jurkat ca...

The emergence and evolution of avian influenza A viruses (AIVs) pose significant challenges to both public health and animal husbandry worldwide. Here, we characterized a novel reassortant highly pathogenic avian influenza virus (HPAIV), clade 2.3.4.4b H5N6, that was isolated from a mandarin duck in...
When ejaculated sperm travels through the vagina to the uterus, mucus secreted by the cervical canal generally filters out sperm having low motility and poor morphology. To investigate this selection principle in vivo, we developed a microfluidic sperm-sorting chip with a viscous medium (polyvinylpy...
This study was designed to investigate at the molecular level how a transgenic version of rice "Nipponbare" obtained a drought-resistant phenotype. Using multi-omics sequencing data, we compared wild-type rice (WT) and a transgenic version (erf71) that had obtained a drought-resistant phenoty...
