Nishimura, Satoshi, Kawai, Yasuo, Nakajima, Toshiaki, Hosoya, Yumiko, Fujita, Hideo, Katoh, Masayoshi, ...

Objective: To elucidate the interdependence between the mechanical state of the myocardium and its electrical activity, previous studies have been performed at the cellular level. However, the...

Reassociation Kinetics for Epstein-Barr Virus DNA: Nonhomology to Mammalian DNA and Homology of Viral DNA in Various Diseases

Kawai, Yasuo, Nonoyama, Meihan, Pagano, Joseph S.

The number of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) genomes per cell in established leukocytic lines and tissue specimens has been evaluated by measuring DNA-DNA reassociation kinetics with hydroxyapatite...

In Vitro N-Nitrosodimethylamine Formation by Some Bacteria

Hashimoto, Shusuke, Kawai, Yasuo, Mutai, Masahiko

It was found that human pathogenic bacteria and some species of intestinal bacteria in rats have the ability to catalyze the formation of N-nitrosodimethylamine from dimethylamine and nitrate in...

Intestinal Enzyme Activities in Germfree, Conventional, and Gnotobiotic Rats Associated with Indigenous Microorganisms

Kawai, Yasuo, Morotomi, Masami

Various enzyme activities involved in the active transport system, glycolysis, and digestion were assayed in various parts of the gastrointestinal tracts of germfree, conventional, and gnotobiotic...
