A heterozygous mutation of β-actin associated with neutrophil dysfunction and recurrent infection

Nunoi, Hiroyuki, Yamazaki, Tsuyoshi, Tsuchiya, Hiroyuki, Kato, Seishi, Malech, Harry L., Matsuda, Ichiro, ...

A human disorder caused by mutation in nonmuscle actin has not been reported. We report here a variant of nonmuscle actin in a female patient with recurrent infections, photosensitivity, and mental...

Mechanism of Polymerization of the Salmonella O-Antigen: Utilization of Lipid-Linked Intermediates

Kanegasaki, Shiro, Wright, Andrew

Cell envelope fractions from Salmonella can utilize exogenous lipid-linked intermediates for the synthesis of polymeric O-antigen. We describe a method for preparing aqueous suspensions of lipid...

Function of Growth Factors for Rumen Microorganisms I. Nutritional Characteristics of Selenomonas ruminantium

Kanegasaki, Shiro, Takahashi, Hajime

Nutritional characteristics of Selenomonas ruminantium var. lactilytica isolated from a sheep rumen were studied. The organism required for growth the addition of a clarified rumen fluid to a...

Activation of human monocyte cell line U937 via cell surface calreticulin

Cho, Jang-Hyun, Homma, Koichi J., Kanegasaki, Shiro, Natori, Shunji

U937 cells were found to be activated by an antibacterial peptide, KLKLLLLLKLK-NH2 (L5), to generate superoxide anion (O2−)-like peripheral neutrophils. However, the state of cell surface...

Idiopathic Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis as an Autoimmune Disease with Neutralizing Antibody against Granulocyte/Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor

Kitamura, Takayuki, Tanaka, Naohiko, Watanabe, Junichi, Uchida, Kanegasaki, Shiro, Yamada, Yoshitsugu, ...

Idiopathic pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (I-PAP) is a rare disease of unknown etiology in which the alveoli fill with lipoproteinaceous material. We report here that I-PAP is an autoimmune disease...
