Open AccessAnomalous anisotropic behaviour of spin-triplet proximity effect in Au/SrRuO3/Sr2RuO4 junctions
Spin-polarized supercurrents can be generated with magnetic inhomogeneity at a ferromagnet/spin-singlet-superconductor interface. In such systems, complex magnetic inhomogeneity makes it difficult to functiona...

MUC1 enhances hypoxia-driven angiogenesis through the regulation of multiple proangiogenic factors
Pancreatic cancer is one of the most lethal malignancies due to its aggressive growth and rapid development of distant metastases. In this context, mucin 1 (MUC1) overexpression and hypoxia are frequently obse...

Open AccessAnomalous switching in Nb/Ru/Sr2RuO4 topological junctions by chiral domain wall motion
A spontaneous symmetry breaking in a system often results in domain wall formation. The motion of such domain walls is utilized to realize novel devices like racetrack-memories, in which moving ferromagnetic d...

Open AccessPromoter CpG methylation in cancer cells contributes to the regulation of MUC4
Mucin 4 (MUC4) is a high molecular weight transmembrane mucin that is overexpressed in many carcinomas and is a risk factor associated with a poor prognosis. In this study, we show that the DNA methylation pat...

Superconductivity and quantum criticality in the heavy-fermion system β-YbAlB4
A long-sought ytterbium-based heavy-fermion superconductor—a hole analogue of the cerium-based systems—has been found. Moreover, there is evidence for a quantum critical point at ambient conditions and without...

Brain D-serine and tyrosine levels in ataxic mutant mice
Since D-serine occurs at high concentrations in mammalian forebrains, the brain D-serine content was analyzed in hyperkinetic and ataxic mutant mice as well as normal control mice in a search for a physiologic...

Immunohistochemically demonstrated variation in expression of cathepsin E between uracil-induced papillomatosis and N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl)nitrosamine-induced preneoplastic and neoplastic changes in rat urinary bladder
Expression of rat urinary bladder cathepsin E in benign papillomatosis induced by uracil and various stages of N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl)nitrosamine (BBN)-induced carcinogenesis was investigated immunohistochemic...

Migration of Cesium, Strontium and Cobalt in Water-Saturated Concretes
Diffusivities of Cs, Sr and Co were measured in several kinds of water-saturated concretes. The measured penetration profile of every tracer was composed of two parts. Those were a steep slope near the surface...
