Publications
Conservation of the basic pattern of cellular amino acid composition during biological evolution in plantsK Sorimachi
Department of Microbiology, Dokkyo University School of Medicine, Mibu, Tochigi, Japan
Amino Acids 18:193-7. 2000..It is concluded that the basic pattern of the cellular amino acid composition is conserved in all terrestrial organisms, including plants...
Secretion of TNF-alpha, IL-8 and nitric oxide by macrophages activated with Agaricus blazei Murill fractions in vitroK Sorimachi
Department of Microbiology, Dokkyo University School of Medicine, Mibu, Tochigi, Japan
Cell Struct Funct 26:103-8. 2001..Therefore, it is concluded that Agaricus blazei Murill components which activate macrophages result in the induction of cytokine- and NO secretion in vitro...
Conservation of the basic pattern of cellular amino acid composition of archaeobacteria during biological evolution and the putative amino acid composition of primitive life formsK Sorimachi
Department of Microbiology, Dokkyo University School of Medicine, Mibu, Tochigi, Japan
Amino Acids 21:393-9. 2001..Thus, the cellular amino acid composition reflects biological evolution. We suggest that primitive forms of life appearing on earth at the end of prebiotic evolution had a similar-cellular amino acid composition...
Modulation of interleukin-8 and nitric oxide synthase mRNA levels by interferon-gamma in macrophages stimulated with lignin derivatives and lipopolysaccharidesK Sorimachi
Department of Microbiology, Dokkyo University School of Medicine, Mibu, Tochigi 321 0293, Japan
Cancer Detect Prev 27:1-4. 2003..Effects of IFN-gamma on TNF-alpha secretion by stimulated macrophages may be mediated by a different mechanism...
Classification of eubacteria based on their complete genome: where does Mycoplasmataceae belong?Kenji Sorimachi
Department of Microbiology, Dokkyo University School of Medicine, Mibu, Tochigi 321 0293, Japan
Proc Biol Sci 271:S127-30. 2004..In addition, the amino acid composition based on the plasmid resembled that based on the parent complete genome...
Codon evolution is governed by linear formulasK Sorimachi
Educational Support Center, Dokkyo Medical University, Mibu, Tochigi 321 0293, Japan
Amino Acids 34:661-8. 2008..The maximum and minimum values of G content were approximately 0.35 and approximately 0.15, respectively, among various organisms examined. Codon evolution occurs according to linear formulas between these two values...
Inhibitory effect of Agaricu blazei Murill components on abnormal collagen fiber formation in human hepatocarcinoma cellsKenji Sorimachi
Educational Support Center, Dokkyo Medical University, Mibu, Tochigi 321 0293, Japan
Biosci Biotechnol Biochem 72:621-3. 2008..The reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) demonstrates that Agaricus blazei mycelial fraction A-4 did not inhibit the type I, II or III procollagen gene expression...
Alternative medicine safety: agaricus blazei and propolisKenji Sorimachi
Educational Support Center, Dokkyo Medical University, Mibu, Tochigi, Japan
Comb Chem High Throughput Screen 14:616-21. 2011..Clearly, the safety of not only pure medicines, but also alternative medicines and daily foods, should be carefully controlled...
Effects of olmesartan medoxomil as an angiotensin II-receptor blocker in chronic hypoxic ratsTakaaki Nakamoto
Department of Cardiology and Pneumology, Dokkyo University School of Medicine, Mibu, Tochigi, Japan
Eur J Pharmacol 528:43-51. 2005..However, systolic blood pressure was independent of olmesartan medoxomil. The present study clearly indicates that the angiotensin II-type I-receptor blocker olmesartan medoxomil has significant efficacy for hypoxic cor pulmonale...
