Molecular Gas Distribution in Barred and Non-Barred Galaxies along the Hubble Sequence (2008)

Komugi, S., Sofue, Y., Kohno, K., Nakanishi, H., Onodera, S., Egusa, F., ...

We present results from a survey of 12CO(J=1-0) spectra obtained for the central regions of 68 nearby galaxies at an angular resolution of 16 arcseconds using the Nobeyama Radio Observatory 45m...

Tracing star formation in galaxies with molecular line and continuum observations (2008)

Kohno, K., Muraoka, K., Hatsukade, B., Tanaka, K., Iono, D., Nakanishi, K., ...

We report our recent progress on extragalactic spectroscopic and continuum observations, including HCN(J=1-0), HCO$^+$(J=1-0), and CN(N=1-0) imaging surveys of local Seyfert and starburst galaxies...

ASTE CO(3--2) Observations of the Southern Barred Spiral Galaxy NGC 986: a Large Gaseous Bar Filled with Dense Molecular Medium (2008)

Kohno, K., Tosaki, T., Miura, R., Muraoka, K., Sawada, T., Nakanishi, K., ...

We present CO(3-2) emission observations toward the 3'x3' (or 20x20kpc at a distance of 23Mpc) region of the southern barred spiral galaxy NGC 986 using the Atacama Submillimeter Telescope Experiment...

Nobeyama Millimeter Array Observations of GRB 030329: a Decay of Afterglow with Bumps and Molecular Gas in the Host Galaxy (2004)

Kohno, K., Tosaki, T., Okuda, T., Nakanishi, K., Kamazaki, T., Muraoka, K., ...

Nobeyama Millimeter Array was used to observe millimeter-wave afterglow of GRB 030329 at 93 GHz and 141 GHz from 2003 April 6 to 2003 May 30. A sensitive search for CO(J=1-0) emission/absorption from...

gp130 and c-Kit signalings synergize for ex vivo expansion of human primitive hemopoietic progenitor cells.

Sui, X, Tsuji, K, Tanaka, R, Tajima, S, Muraoka, K, Ebihara, Y, ...

gp130, a signal-transducing receptor component of interleukin 6 (IL-6), associates with an IL-6 and IL-6 receptor (IL-6) complex and transduces signals. To examine the role of gp130 signaling in the...

Immunosuppressant FK506 induces interleukin-6 production through the activation of transcription factor nuclear factor (NF)-kappa(B). Implications for FK506 nephropathy.

Muraoka, K, Fujimoto, K, Sun, X, Yoshioka, K, Shimizu, K, Yagi, M, ...

FK506 is a powerful immunosuppressive drug currently in use that inhibits the activation of several transcription factors (nuclear factor (NF)-AT and NF-kappaB) critical for T cell activation. We...
