Characterization of Lactic Acid Bacteria from Fermented Fish (<i>pla-paeng-daeng</i>) and Their Cholesterol-lowering and Immunomodulatory Effects Open
The cholesterol-lowering and immunomodulatory effects and probiotic properties of 25 lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from fermented fish (pla-paeng-daeng) in Thailand were examined in the present study. Based on their phenotypic and ge…

Expression of Difficult-to-Express Proteins, Human IL-12 and IFN-<i>γ</i> Open
It is known to be that lactic acid bacteria induce the IL-12. IL-12 activates NK cells and promotes the production of IFN-γ. IFN-γ activates macrophages, resulting in enhanced phagocytosis and bactericidal activity. We have been investigat…

[Review] Koji is Old-Fashioned but there are New Way to Use and Discoveries Open
アミノ酸度と清酒の品質の間には負の相関がある.米の主要な蛋白質はグルテリンである.これが麹の蛋白質分解酵素で分解されてアミノ酸になる.アルギニンは清酒中のアミノ酸の中では2番目に多い.アルギニンは苦味を呈して後味が悪く清酒中のアルギニン含有量の低下は品質向上に有効であるので,グルテリンを基質とした総合ペプチダーゼ活性測定法を開発し,醸造適性の優れた麹菌株をスクリーニングし,アルギニンを対照酒に比べて10分の1まで低減化させた.味噌には多くの生理機能が知られており,抗変異原性…

Lagrangian Mean Curvature Flows and Moment maps Open
In this paper, we construct various examples of Lagrangian mean curvature flows in Calabi-Yau manifolds, using moment maps for actions of abelian Lie groups on them. The examples include Lagrangian self-shrinkers and translating solitons i…
