Open AccessPARVB overexpression increases cell migration capability and defines high risk for endophytic growth and metastasis in tongue squamous cell carcinoma
Tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC) is highly diverse, even in its early stages. This cancer is classified into three subtypes (superficial, exophytic, and endophytic) based on macroscopic appearance. Of the...

Open AccessNF-κB-dependent and -independent epigenetic modulation using the novel anti-cancer agent DMAPT
The transcription factor nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-κB) is constitutively active in several cancers and is a target of therapeutic development. We recently developed dimethylaminoparthenolide (DMAPT), a clinical g...

Open AccessLandscape of genetic lesions in 944 patients with myelodysplastic syndromes
High-throughput DNA sequencing significantly contributed to diagnosis and prognostication in patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). We determined the biological and prognostic significance of genetic a...

Open AccessCirculating microRNAs as biomarkers for early detection of diffuse-type gastric cancer using a mouse model
Diffuse-type gastric cancer (DGC) exhibits rapid disease progression and a poor prognosis. There are no effective serum biomarkers for early detection of DGC. We have established an E-cadherin/p53 double condi...

Open AccessIncreasing Si photodetector photosensitivity in near-infrared region and manifestation of optical amplification by dressed photons
We fabricated a novel photodetector by subjecting a Si crystal having a p–n homojunction to phonon-assisted annealing. The photosensitivity of this device for incident light having a wavelength of 1.16 μm or g...

Open AccessExpression of Forkhead box P3 in tumour cells causes immunoregulatory function of signet ring cell carcinoma of the stomach
It was recently reported that the transcription factor Forkhead box P3 (FoxP3) is expressed not only in regulatory T cells (Tregs) but also in cancer cells. The aim of this study was to clarify the clinical si...

Open Access13C-phenylalanine breath test detects altered phenylalanine kinetics in schizophrenia patients
Phenylalanine is an essential amino acid required for the synthesis of catecholamines including dopamine. Altered levels of phenylalanine and its metabolites in blood and cerebrospinal fluid have been reported...

Open AccessAcquisition of EMT phenotype in the gefitinib-resistant cells of a head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cell line through Akt/GSK-3β/snail signalling pathway
Epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) is known to be associated with chemoresistance as well as increased invasion/metastasis. However, the relationship between EMT and resistance to an epidermal growth fact...

Pinwheel valence-bond solid and triplet excitations in the two-dimensional deformed kagome lattice
Single crystals of a two-dimensional quantum spin system with geometric frustration lead to the observation of a ‘pinwheel’ valence-bond ground state. In this case, the distortion of the ideal kagome lattice s...

Open AccessIncreased circulating cell signalling phosphoproteins in sera are useful for the detection of pancreatic cancer
Intracellular phosphoprotein activation significantly regulates cancer progression. However, the significance of circulating phosphoproteins in the blood remains unknown. We investigated the serum phosphoprote...

Open AccessOestrogen receptor-α contributes to the regulation of the hedgehog signalling pathway in ERα-positive gastric cancer
Oestrogen receptor-alpha (ERα) is highly expressed in diffuse-type gastric cancer and oestrogen increases the proliferation of ERα-positive gastric cancer. However, a detailed mechanism by which oestrogen increas...

The Bcr-Abl kinase inhibitor INNO-406 induces autophagy and different modes of cell death execution in Bcr-Abl-positive leukemias
Bcr-Abl tyrosine kinase (TK) inhibitors are promising therapeutic agents for Bcr-Abl-positive (Bcr-Abl+) leukemias. Although they are known to promote caspase-mediated apoptosis, it remains unclear whether caspas...

Two-photon probe of the Jaynes–Cummings model and controlled symmetry breaking in circuit QED
Micrometre-scale superconducting circuits can act as quantum two-level systems, but unlike in their natural counterparts—such as atoms—the parameters of these ‘artificial qubits’ can be controlled externally. ...
