To determine the pathogenicities of mutated mtDNAs in patients with respiration defects, the possible involvement of nuclear DNA mutations has to be excluded, since respiratory function is controlled by both nuclear DNA and mtDNA. This was achieved b

The mouse leptin gene, a major hormonal regulator of appetite and fat cell mass, expresses during the differentiation of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes to adipocytes. To determine if DNA methylation is involved in regulating the expression of the leptin gene,

For determination of whether platelet mtDNA in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) possesses some lesions to reduce respiratory enzyme activities, platelet mtDNA was transferred into mtDNA-less (rho0) HeLa cells from aged PD patients and age-match

A 44-year-old female with familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia (FHH) due to a homozygous missense mutation (Pro40Ala) in calcium sensing receptor (CaSR) gene has type 2 diabetes mellitus. The identical heterozygous mutation of CaSR gene was observed

Aldose reductase (AKR1B1) is the first enzyme in the polyol pathway through which glucose is converted to sorbitol, and has been implicated in the etiology of diabetic complications. However, its physiological role is still not well understood. In th

A point mutation of a nucleotide within a single gene can have a profound effect on a specific organ and or the entire human body. DNA sequences associated with human diseases may differ from the corresponding normal sequences by single nucleotide mu

GLUT4, the major glucose transporter in adipose tissue, is expressed during the differentiation of 3T3-L1 cells from preadipocytes to adipocytes. We previously examined the mouse GLUT4 promoter activity up to -590 bp, and demonstrated that the 5'-fla

We determined by PCR the number of (A-C)n repeats in the 2. 1 kb upstream of the aldose reductase (AR2) gene in healthy control subjects and in patients with NIDDM in Japanese. Sixty-one patients were recruited based on the severity of retinopathy an

Deficiencies in cellular cyclic AMP (cAMP) and nitric oxide (NO) production are thought to be involved in the pathogenesis of diabetic neuropathy. We used a human neuroblastoma cell line, SH-SY5Y, to investigate the effect of cilostazol, a specific c

We isolated the rat aldose reductase gene and examined the 5′-flanking sequence for the presence of transcription regulatory element responsive to hyperosmolarity. Deletion of aldose reductase gene up to− 1047 bp abolished the transcriptional act
