K-Ras mediates cytokine-induced formation of E-cadherin-based adherens junctions during liver development

Matsui, Takaaki, Kinoshita, Taisei, Morikawa, Yoshihiro, Tohya, Kazuo, Katsuki, Motoya, Ito, Yoshiaki, ...

The E-cadherin-based adherens junction (AJ) is essential for organogenesis of epithelial tissues including the liver, although the regulatory mechanism of AJ formation during development remains...

Mammalian Twisted Gastrulation Is Essential for Skeleto-Lymphogenesis

Nosaka, Tetsuya, Morita, Sumiyo, Kitamura, Hidetomo, Nakajima, Hideaki, Shibata, Fumi, Morikawa, Yoshihiro, ...

Dorsoventral patterning depends on the local concentrations of the morphogens. Twisted gastrulation (TSG) regulates the extracellular availability of a mesoderm inducer, bone morphogenetic protein 4...

Vasorin, a transforming growth factor β-binding protein expressed in vascular smooth muscle cells, modulates the arterial response to injury in vivo

Ikeda, Yuichi, Imai, Yasushi, Kumagai, Hidetoshi, Nosaka, Tetsuya, Morikawa, Yoshihiro, Hisaoka, Tomoko, ...

Growth factors, cell-surface receptors, adhesion molecules, and extracellular matrix proteins play critical roles in vascular pathophysiology by affecting growth, migration, differentiation, and...

Neuronal Leucine-Rich Repeat Protein 4 Functions in Hippocampus-Dependent Long-Lasting Memory

Bando, Takayoshi, Sekine, Keisuke, Kobayashi, Shizuka, Watabe, Ayako M., Rump, Armin, Tanaka, Minoru, ...

Neuronal leucine-rich repeat proteins (NLRRs) are type I transmembrane proteins and expressed in neuronal tissues, but their function remains unknown. Here, we describe the identification and...

Infertility with Defective Spermiogenesis in Mice Lacking AF5q31, the Target of Chromosomal Translocation in Human Infant Leukemia

Urano, Atsushi, Endoh, Masaki, Wada, Tadashi, Morikawa, Yoshihiro, Itoh, Miyuki, Kataoka, Yuki, ...

AF5q31 (also called MCEF) was identified by its involvement in chromosomal translocation with the gene MLL (mixed lineage leukemia), which is associated with infant acute lymphoblastic leukemia....
