Measuring the frequency of a Sr optical lattice clock using a 120-km coherent optical transfer (2008)

Musha, M., Takamoto, M., Inaba, H., Yanagimachi, S., Takamizawa, A., ...

We demonstrate a precision frequency measurement using a phase-stabilized 120-km optical fiber link over a physical distance of 50 km. The transition frequency of the 87Sr optical lattice clock at...

New Limits on Coupling of Fundamental Constants to Gravity Using $^{87}$Sr Optical Lattice Clocks (2008)

Blatt, S., Ludlow, A. D., Campbell, G. K., Thomsen, J. W., Zelevinsky, T., Boyd, M. M., ...

The $^1\mathrm{S}_0$-$^3\mathrm{P}_0$ clock transition frequency $\nu_\text{Sr}$ in neutral $^{87}$Sr has been measured relative to the Cs standard by three independent laboratories in Boulder,...

Trapping of Neutral Mercury Atoms and Prospects for Optical Lattice Clocks (2007)

Hachisu, H., Miyagishi, K., Porsev, S. G., Derevianko, A., Ovsiannikov, V. D., Pal'chikov, V. G., ...

We report a vapor-cell magneto-optical trapping of Hg isotopes on the ${}^1S_0-{}^3P_1$ intercombination transition. Six abundant isotopes, including four bosons and two fermions, were trapped. Hg is...

Adjuvanticity (immunity-inducing property) of cord factor in mice and rats.

Saito, R, Nagao, S, Takamoto, M, Sugiyama, K, Tanaka, A

Cord factor, a glycolipid in mycobacteria, was found to make a tolerogenic protein antigen immunogenic when injected 0 to 2 days before tolerogen injection in mice and rats. Cord factor was also...

Saito, R, Nagao, S, Takamoto, M, Sugiyama, K, Tanaka, A

Cord factor, a glycolipid in mycobacteria, was found to make a tolerogenic protein antigen immunogenic when injected 0 to 2 days before tolerogen injection in mice and rats. Cord factor was also...

Eosinophilia, IgE production, and cytokine production by lung T cells in surface CD4-deficient mutant mice infected with Toxocara canis.

Takamoto, M, Wang, Z X, Watanabe, N, Matsuzawa, A, Nariuchi, H, Sugane, K

Mutant mice deficient in CD4+ T cells and their normal and heterozygous littermates were infected with Toxocara canis, and compared for eosinophilia, total and Toxocara-specific immunoglobulin E...

The role of ICAM-1/LFA-1 and VCAM-1/VLA-4 interactions on T helper 2 cytokine production by lung T cells of Toxocara canis-infected mice.

Takamoto, M, Isobe, M, Sugane, K

In order to study the effect of costimulatory signals on T helper type 2 (Th2) cytokine production, monoclonal antibodies (mAb) against cell adhesion molecules (CAM) were added to cells in culture...

Occurrence of interleukin-5 production by CD4- CD8- (double-negative) T cells in lungs of both normal and congenitally athymic nude mice infected with Toxocara canis.

Takamoto, M, Kusama, Y, Takatsu, K, Nariuchi, H, Sugane, K

We studied cells in the lungs of BALB/c and BALB/c-nu/nu (nude) mice infected with Toxocara canis, which produced interleukin-5 (IL-5) in in vitro culture with larval excretory-secretory antigen...

Mechanisms of eosinophilia in BALB/c-nu/+ and congenitally athymic BALB/c-nu/nu mice infected with Toxocara canis.

Kusama, Y, Takamoto, M, Kasahara, T, Takatsu, K, Nariuchi, H, Sugane, K

We studied the mechanism of eosinophilia in BALB/c-nu/+ (nu/+) and BALB/c-nu/nu (nu/nu) mice infected with Toxocara canis. Eosinophilia with two peaks on days 11 and 21 of infection was observed in...

Eosinophilia, parasite burden and lung damage in Toxocara canis infection in C57Bl/6 mice genetically deficient in IL-5.

Takamoto, M, Ovington, K S, Behm, C A, Sugane, K, Young, I G, Matthaei, K I

C57Bl/6 mice genetically deficient in interleukin (IL)-5 (IL-5-/-) and mice with the normal IL-5 gene (IL-5+/+) were infected with embryonated eggs of Toxocara canis. IL-5+/+ mice developed a marked...

Reduced resistance to Pseudomonas septicaemia in diabetic mice.

Kitahara, Y, Ishibashi, T, Harada, Y, Takamoto, M, Tanaka, K

Antibacterial resistance in a diabetic state was studied using experimental Pseudomonas infection in streptozotocin (SZ) induced diabetic mice. The results obtained were as follows: (1) there was no...

Effects of monoclonal antibodies to adhesion molecules on eosinophilic myocarditis in Toxocara canis-infected CBA/J mice

Hokibara, S, Takamoto, M, Isobe, M, Sugane, K

Eosinophilic myocarditis followed by fibrosis of the cardiac muscle was observed in addition to peripheral blood eosinophilia in CBA/J mice infected with Toxocara canis. The infected mice were used...

A pivotal role of cell-bound but not soluble CD4 molecules in full development of lupus-like manifestations in MRL-Faslprcg/Faslprcg mice

Zhang, Y, Yasuda, T, Wang, C R, Yoshimoto, T, Nagase, H, Takamoto, M, ...

The role of CD4 molecules in the autoimmune and lymphoproliferative syndrome caused by murine Fas mutations was studied using the novel systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) model, MRL-Faslprcg/Faslprcg...

Distant metastasis facilitated by BCG: spread of tumour cells injected in the BCG-primed site.

Ishibashi, T., Yamada, H., Harada, S., Harada, Y., Miyazaki, N., Takamoto, M., ...

Tumour metastasis in BCG-pretreated mice was studied using a methylcholanthrene-induced fibrosarcoma in C3H/He mice. When tumour cells were injected into the BCG-primed site, distant metastasis...
