Polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cells have the potential to alleviate major problems
associated with the production and consumption of energy. Fuel cells operate as energy …

The present paper gives an overview and review on self-organized TiO 2 nanotube layers
and other transition metal oxide tubular structures grown by controlled anodic oxidation of a …

… By using only the θ F and θ K values, we can establish the relation f(θ F , θ K ) = α in the
QAH state. Here, f is a scaling function of θ F and θ K that depends only on the experimental …

We carried out a multistage genome-wide association study of type 2 diabetes mellitus in
Japanese individuals, with a total of 1,612 cases and 1,424 controls and 100,000 SNPs. The …

Variation in the CYP3A enzymes, which act in drug metabolism, influences circulating steroid
levels and responses to half of all oxidatively metabolized drugs. CYP3A activity is the sum …

Polarization of macrophages to M1 or M2 cells is important for mounting responses against
bacterial and helminth infections, respectively. Jumonji domain containing-3 (Jmjd3), a …

An adipocyte-derived peptide, adiponectin (also known as GBP28), is decreased in subjects
with type 2 diabetes. Recent genome-wide scans have mapped a diabetes susceptibility …

We identified in-frame fusion transcripts of KIF5B (the kinesin family 5B gene) and the RET
oncogene, which are present in 1–2% of lung adenocarcinomas (LADCs) from people from …

… a K opioid receptor. Here, we report the amino acid sequence encoded by a mouse K …
pharmacological properties of the cloned mouse 8 and K opioid receptors, including their ability to …

We purified human plasma lysophospholipase D that produces physiologically active
lysophosphatidic acid and showed that it is a soluble form of autotaxin, an ecto-nucleotide …
