Publications
Apolipoprotein E epsilon2 allele and early onset schizophreniaT Kimura
Department of Neuropsychiatry, Kumamoto University School of Medicine, Honjo, Japan
Neurosci Lett 231:53-5. 1997..These results suggest that ApoE epsilon2 protects against early onset schizophrenia, and that ApoE epsilon4 is not involved in the development of schizophrenia in Japanese...
Localization of identified advanced glycation end-product structures, N epsilon(carboxymethyl)lysine and pentosidine, in age-related inclusions in human brainsT Kimura
Department of Neuropsychiatry, Kumamoto University School of Medicine, Japan
Pathol Int 48:575-9. 1998..As CML and pentosidine are glycoxidation products among AGE, the results suggest that glycation and/or oxidation may be involved in the formation of lipofuscin granules and corpora amylacea...
Apolipoprotein E epsilon3 allele is not a risk factor of schizophrenia: a study of 314 Japanese patientsT Kimura
Department of Neuropsychiatry, Kumamoto University School of Medicine, Kumamoto, Japan
Neuropsychobiology 42:66-8. 2000..In contrast to the report from Taiwan, our findings and results of the majority of previous studies suggest no effects of ApoE alleles on the development of schizophrenia...
Apolipoprotein E epsilon4 and tardive dyskinesia in a Japanese populationT Kimura
Department of Neuropsychiatry, Kumamoto University School of Medicine, Honjo 1 1 1, Kumamoto 860 8556, Japan
J Psychiatr Res 34:329-32. 2000..These findings do not clearly demonstrate a certain association between TD and the epsilon4 allele, but may preliminarily reveal a difference in influence of this allele on the development of TD between males and females...
Identification of an aging-related spherical inclusion in the human brainTakemi Kimura
Department of Psychiatry, Kumamoto University School of Medicine, Saga, Japan
Pathol Int 52:636-42. 2002..The presence of the inclusion was confirmed using immunoelectron microscopy. These findings show a possibility that the inclusion is a novel aging-related structure in the human brain...
