Variation of local magnetism in a perovskite manganite La0.7Ca0.3MnO3 by Fe do**
Fe do** effect on the local magnetic property of La0.7Ca0.3Mn1−xFexO3 (0.4 ≤ x ≤ 0.55) was investigated by means of 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy. The X-ray diffraction patterns and the isomer shifts of the 57Fe ...

Open AccessNK105, a paclitaxel-incorporating micellar nanoparticle, is a more potent radiosensitising agent compared to free paclitaxel
NK105 is a micellar nanoparticle formulation designed to enhance the delivery of paclitaxel (PTX) to solid tumours. It has been reported to exert antitumour activity in vivo and to have reduced neurotoxicity as c...

Search for novel gene markers of traumatic brain injury by time differential microarray analysis
Neuronal and glial cell death caused by axonal injury sometimes contributes to whole brain pathology after traumatic brain injury (TBI). We show that neuroprotection by 2 types of immunosuppressants, cyclospor...

A novel neuroprotective compound FR901459 with dual inhibition of calcineurin and cyclophilins
Brain ischemia leads to severe damage in the form of delayed neuronal cell death. In our study, we show that the marked neuroprotection of the new immunosuppressant FR901495 in forebrain ischemia is due not on...

Open AccessCisplatin-incorporating polymeric micelles (NC-6004) can reduce nephrotoxicity and neurotoxicity of cisplatin in rats
In spite of the clinical usefulness of cisplatin (CDDP), there are many occasions in which it is difficult to continue the administration of CDDP due to its nephrotoxicity and neurotoxicity. We examined the in...

Little evidence of transdifferentiation of bone marrow-derived cells into pancreatic beta cells
Bone marrow cells contain at least two distinct types of stem cells which are haematopoietic stem cells and mesenchymal stem cells. Both cells have the ability to differentiate into a variety of cell types der...

Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Maturation of Brain Damage After Transient Ischemia
The damage incurred by neurons and glial cells after ischemia and reperfusion is caused by events occurring during three periods: the period of ischemia, the maturation period, and the sequence of events leadi...

Role of Mitochondria in Immediate and Delayed Reperfusion Damage
Ischemia leads to mitochondrial dysfunction. This is reversible if ischemia is of brief duration, but secondary mitochondrial damage is observed after longer periods of ischemia, particularly in selectively vu...

Changes in the bioenergetic state of rat hippocampus during 2.5 min of ischemia, and prevention of cell damage by cyclosporin A in hyperglycemic subjects
A recent study from this laboratory has shown that brief transient ischemia (2 min 30 s) in normo- and hyperglycemic rats leads to moderate neuronal necrosis in CA1 cells of the hippocampus, of equal density ...
