Metformin suppresses hepatic gluconeogenesis and lowers fasting blood glucose levels through reactive nitrogen species in mice
Metformin, the major target of which is liver, is commonly used to treat type 2 diabetes. Although metformin activates AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) in hepatocytes, the mechanism of activation is still n...

Electron Emission from Diamond (111) p +-i-n+ Junction Diode
We successfully observed electron emission from hydrogenated diamond (111) p +-i-n+ junction diodes. Here, p +- and n +-layers mean that the boron and phosphorous impurity concentrations in these layers are aroun...

Hyperfine interactions of half-metallic diluted antiferromagnetic semiconductors
Half-metallic diluted antiferromagnetic semiconductors (HM-AF-DMSs) are magnetic materials that are half-metallic and yet do not exhibit magnetization. The remarkable features of these materials and the possib...

Electric field gradient at 12N implanted into ZnO
The nuclear quadrupole interaction of short-lived β-emitter 12N(I=1, T 1/2=11 ms) implanted into a ZnO single crystal has been studied by means of the β-NMR method. We have observed a quadrup...

Spin-lattice relaxation of 25Al and 28P in Pt
The spin-lattice relaxation times T 1 for short-lived β emitters 25Al(I=5/2, T 1/2=7.2 s) and 28P(I=3, T 1/2=270 ms) in Pt were measured by means of ...

Temperature dependence of Knight shifts for 12B in Pt
The Knight shift of a short lived β-emitting nucleus 12B (I=1, T 1/2=20 ms) implanted into Pt has been measured as a function of temperature (140–600 K) by means of the β-NMR method. The rela...
