Leukemogenicity and cell transformation mechanisms in vitro by Gross murine leukemia virus: analysis of virus subpopulations.

Hamada, K, Yanagihara, K, Kamiya, K, Seyama, T, Yokoro, K

The leukemogenic activity of Gross murine leukemia virus adapted to rats was tested in W/Fu rats and NIH/Swiss mice. All animals infected with this virus developed thymic and nonthymic T-cell...

Role of coagulase in a murine model of hematogenous pulmonary infection induced by intravenous injection of Staphylococcus aureus enmeshed in agar beads.

Sawai, T, Tomono, K, Yanagihara, K, Yamamoto, Y, Kaku, M, Hirakata, Y, ...

We describe a novel mouse model of acute staphylococcal pneumonia induced by intravenous injection of Staphylococcus aureus enmeshed in agar beads. For comparison, we also used various strains of...

Detection of Cryptococcus neoformans gene in patients with pulmonary cryptococcosis.

Tanaka, K, Miyazaki, T, Maesaki, S, Mitsutake, K, Kakeya, H, Yamamoto, Y, ...

Pulmonary cryptococcosis was diagnosed by nested PCR. Extraction of DNA was performed by mechanical destruction of the capsules of Cryptococcus neoformans by the glass bead technique. Nested PCR was...

In vitro studies of the mechanism of leukemogenesis. II. Characterization of endogenous murine leukemia viruses isolated from AKR thymic epithelial reticulum cell lines.

Yanagihara, K, Hamada, K, Seyama, T, Imamura, N, Yokoro, K

Thymic epithelial reticulum (TER) cell lines were established from thymuses of a young healthy AKR mouse (A2T), a preleukemic AKR mouse (A6T), and two lymphoma-bearing AKR/Ms mice (ASLT-1 and...

Transcriptional repressor ZF5 identifies a new conserved domain in zinc finger proteins.

Numoto, M, Niwa, O, Kaplan, J, Wong, K K, Merrell, K, Kamiya, K, ...

We have cloned a cDNA encoding a new murine C2H2 zinc finger protein, ZF5. The 51.3 kD protein contains five GL1-Kruppel type zinc fingers at the C-terminus. At its N-terminus, ZF5 has a 41 amino...

Virulence of Metallo-β-Lactamase-Producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa In Vitro and In Vivo

Aoki, S., Hirakata, Y., Kondoh, A., Gotoh, N., Yanagihara, K., Miyazaki, Y., ...

We evaluated the virulence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa carrying blaIMP, a metallo-β-lactamase gene, and the efficacy of ceftazidime, imipenem-cilastatin, and ciprofloxacin in the endogenous bacteremia...

Mechanism of apoptotic cell death of human gastric carcinoma cells mediated by transforming growth factor beta.

Ohta, S, Yanagihara, K, Nagata, K

Human gastric carcinoma cell line HSC-39 has been shown to undergo apoptotic cell death in response to treatment with transforming growth factor beta1 (TGF-beta1). To understand better the cell death...

Acute infection with influenza virus enhances susceptibility to fatal pneumonia following Streptococcus pneumoniae infection in mice with chronic pulmonary colonization with Pseudomonas aeruginosa

SEKI, M, HIGASHIYAMA, Y, TOMONO, K, YANAGIHARA, K, OHNO, H, KANEKO, Y, ...

We established a mouse model in which fatal pneumonia was induced by pneumococcal superinfection following influenza virus infection in chronic Pseudomonas aeruginosa infected mice. In this mouse...

Intrapulmonary concentrations of inflammatory cytokines in a mouse model of chronic respiratory infection caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Yanagihara, K, Tomono, K, Kuroki, M, Kaneko, Y, Sawai, T, Ohno, H, ...

We investigated the role of inflammatory cytokines in a mouse model of chronic Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection mimicking diffuse panbronchiolitis (DPB), and determined the effects of clarithromycin...

Differing effects of clarithromycin and azithromycin on cytokine production by murine dendritic cells

Sugiyama, K, Shirai, R, Mukae, H, Ishimoto, H, Nagata, T, Sakamoto, N, ...

The macrolide antibiotics are now well known to have anti-inflammatory effects. Because dendritic cells (DCs) orchestrate immune responses, we examined the in vitro effects of clarithromycin (CAM),...
