Suzaku Observation of the Ophiuchus Galaxy Cluster: One of the Hottest Cool Core Clusters (2008)

Fujita, Yutaka, Hayashida, Kiyoshi, Nagai, Masaaki, Inoue, Susumu, Matsumoto, Hironori, Okabe, Nobuhiro, ...

We present the analysis of a Suzaku observation of the Ophiuchus galaxy cluster. We confirmed that the cluster has a cool core. While the temperature of the intracluster medium (ICM) decreases toward...

Reproducibility of Non-X-ray Background for the X-ray Imaging Spectrometer aboard Suzaku (2008)

Tawa, Noriaki, Hayashida, Kiyoshi, Nagai, Masaaki, Nakamoto, Hajime, Tsunemi, Hiroshi, Yamaguchi, Hiroya, ...

One of the advantages of the X-ray Imaging Spectrometer (XIS) system on board Suzaku is its low and stable non-X-ray background (NXB). In order to make the best use of this advantage, modeling the...

The adaptor protein ARH escorts megalin to and through endosomes (2003)

Nagai, Masaaki, Meerloo, Timo, Takeda, Tetsuro, Farquhar, Marilyn Gist

Megalin is an endocytic receptor that binds multiple ligands and is essential for many physiological processes such as brain development and uptake of proteins by the kidney tubule, yolk sac, and...

Reciprocal Protective Immunity against Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis in a Murine Model of Respiratory Infection

Watanabe, Mineo, Nagai, Masaaki

The protective immunity induced by infection with Bordetella pertussis and with Bordetella parapertussis was examined in a murine model of respiratory infection. Convalescent mice that had been...

Role of Systemic and Mucosal Immune Responses in Reciprocal Protection against Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis in a Murine Model of Respiratory Infection

Watanabe, Mineo, Nagai, Masaaki

The roles of systemic humoral immunity, cell-mediated immunity, and mucosal immunity in reciprocal protective immunity against Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis were examined by using...
