Interaction of massless Dirac field with a Poincar\'e gauge field (1997)

Nakariki, S., Masaki, T., Fukuma, K., Fukui, T., Mizouchi, M., Ohtani, T., ...

In this paper we consider a model of Poincar\'e gauge theory (PGT) in which a translational gauge field and a Lorentz gauge field are actually identified with the Einstein's gravitational field and a...

Charmed Hadron Production in \pi p and Kp Collisions and Leading Particle Effect by Constituent Quark-Diquark Cascade Model (1997)

Tashiro, T., Noda, H., Nakariki, S., Ishii, K., Kinoshita, K.

We investigate the meson, baryon and anti-baryon productions in \pi p and Kp collisions in terms of a constituent cascade model which includes charm flavour. The constituent diquark in an incident...

Relationship between rifampin MICs for and rpoB mutations of Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains isolated in Japan.

Ohno, H, Koga, H, Kohno, S, Tashiro, T, Hara, K

We analyzed the relationship between rifampin MICs and rpoB mutations of 40 clinical isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. A point mutation in either codon 516, 526, or 531 was found in 13 strains...

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...

A 77-kilodalton protein of Cryptococcus neoformans, a member of the heat shock protein 70 family, is a major antigen detected in the sera of mice with pulmonary cryptococcosis.

Kakeya, H, Udono, H, Ikuno, N, Yamamoto, Y, Mitsutake, K, Miyazaki, T, ...

Heat shock proteins (HSPs) from several pathogenic microbes have been shown to be target molecules of humoral responses as well as cellular immune responses. However, little is known about target...

New drug susceptibility test for Mycobacterium tuberculosis using the hybridization protection assay.

Miyamoto, J, Koga, H, Kohno, S, Tashiro, T, Hara, K

We developed a novel method for early detection of drug-resistant strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis by using the hybridization protection assay (HPA). The number of viable bacteria during the...

Enolase antigen, mannan antigen, Cand-Tec antigen, and beta-glucan in patients with candidemia.

Mitsutake, K, Miyazaki, T, Tashiro, T, Yamamoto, Y, Kakeya, H, Otsubo, T, ...

We compared the specificities and sensitivities of four tests used for the serodiagnosis of candidemia in 39 patients with candidemia, including 10 patients with superficial Candida colonization, 10...

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...

Effects of soybean oil emulsion and eicosapentaenoic acid on stress response and immune function after a severely stressful operation.

Furukawa, K, Tashiro, T, Yamamori, H, Takagi, K, Morishima, Y, Sugiura, T, ...

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of soybean oil emulsion and oral or enteral administration of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) on stress response, cytokine production, protein metabolism, and immune...

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...
