Performance of the FOREST/BLC Spectrometer for Study of the \(\eta \)-nucleon Interaction via the \(\gamma d \rightarrow p\eta n\) Reaction

The current experimental information about interactions between the \(\eta \) meson and nucleon (N) is not enough to understand the nature of the \(\eta \) meson in a nucleus. We installed a new spectrometer and ...

Approximate Bayesian computation analysis of EST-associated microsatellites indicates that the broadleaved evergreen tree Castanopsis sieboldii survived the Last Glacial Maximum in multiple refugia in Japan

Climatic changes have played major roles in plants’ evolutionary history. Glacial oscillations have been particularly important, but some of their effects on plants’ populations are poorly understood, includin...

mTORC1 upregulation via ERK-dependent gene expression change confers intrinsic resistance to MEK inhibitors in oncogenic KRas-mutant cancer cells

Cancer cells harboring oncogenic BRaf mutants, but not oncogenic KRas mutants, are sensitive to MEK inhibitors (MEKi). The mechanism underlying the intrinsic resistance to MEKi in KRas-mutant cells is under inten...

Type I IFN gene delivery suppresses regulatory T cells within tumors

Type I interferon (IFN) is a pleiotropic cytokine regulating the cancer cell death and immune response. IFN-α can, as we have also reported, effectively induce an antitumor immunity by the activation of tumor-...

In vivo delivery of interferon-α gene enhances tumor immunity and suppresses immunotolerance in reconstituted lymphopenic hosts

T cells recognize tumor-associated antigens under the condition of lymphopenia-induced homeostatic proliferation (HP); however, HP-driven antitumor responses gradually decay in association with tumor growth. T...
