A Structural Analysis Method Of Framed Structures With Thin-Walled Open Section Members Based On The Bending-Torsional Theory Of Beams (1970)

S. Idelsohn, E. Oate, E. Dvorkin (eds, Y. Fujitani

. In this paper, we present an effective structural analysis method for a space frame composed by thin-walled section beams by using finite element method. The coordinates transformation of the...

Suppression of endothelin-1-induced mitogenic responses of human aortic smooth muscle cells by interleukin-1 beta.

Fujitani, Y, Ninomiya, H, Okada, T, Urade, Y, Masaki, T

When applied to quiescent human aortic smooth muscle cells (AOSMC), endothelin-1 (ET-1) caused significant increases in mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activity, [3H]thymidine incorporation,...

Identification of a novel interleukin-6 response element containing an Ets-binding site and a CRE-like site in the junB promoter.

Nakajima, K, Kusafuka, T, Takeda, T, Fujitani, Y, Nakae, K, Hirano, T

Interleukin-6 (IL-6) activation of the immediate-early gene junB has been shown to require both a tyrosine kinase and an unknown 1-(5-isoquinolinesulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H7)-sensitive pathway....

Glycation-dependent, reactive oxygen species-mediated suppression of the insulin gene promoter activity in HIT cells.

Matsuoka, T, Kajimoto, Y, Watada, H, Kaneto, H, Kishimoto, M, Umayahara, Y, ...

Prolonged poor glycemic control in non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus patients often leads to a decline in insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells, accompanied by a decrease in the insulin...

Suppression of transcription factor PDX-1/IPF1/STF-1/IDX-1 causes no decrease in insulin mRNA in MIN6 cells.

Kajimoto, Y, Watada, H, Matsuoka, T A, Kaneto, H, Fujitani, Y, Miyazaki, J, ...

The insulin gene transcription factor PDX-1/IPF1/STF-1/ IDX-1 plays a key role in directing beta cell-specific gene expressions. Recently, impairment of PDX-1 expression or activity has been observed...

A molecular theory for nonohmicity of the ion leak across the lipid-bilayer membrane.

Fujitani, Y, Bedeaux, D

The current-voltage relationship of ion leak (i.e., ion transport involving neither special channels nor carriers) across the lipid-bilayer membrane has been observed to be log-linear above the ohmic...

Dependence of Frequency of Homologous Recombination on the Homology Length

Fujitani, Y., Yamamoto, K., Kobayashi, I.

The frequency of homologous recombination is believed to be a linear function of the length (N bp) of homology between DNAs. Here, the N intercept is believed to be determined by a threshold length...

Orientation Dependence in Homologous Recombination

Yamamoto, K., Takahashi, N., Fujitani, Y., Yoshikura, H., Kobayashi, I.

Homologous recombination was investigated in Escherichia coli with two plasmids, each carrying the homologous region (two defective neo genes, one with an amino-end deletion and the other with a...

Effect of DNA sequence divergence on homologous recombination as analyzed by a random-walk model.

Fujitani, Y, Kobayashi, I

A point connecting a pair of homologous regions of DNA duplexes moves along the homology in a reaction intermediate of the homologous recombination. Formulating this movement as a random walk, we...
