Adiponectin is a novel, adipose-specific protein abundantly present in the circulation, and it
has antiatherogenic properties. We analyzed the plasma adiponectin concentrations in age- …

Background Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a major threat to human health around
the world. Previous publications have estimated the effect of AMR on incidence, deaths, …

The discovery of afterglows associated with γ-ray bursts at X-ray 1 , optical 2 and radio 3
wavelengths and the measurement of the redshifts of some of these events 4 , 5 has …

HEPATOCYTE growth factor (HGF) is the most potent mitogen for mature parenchyma!
hepatocytes in primary culture, and seems to be a hepatotrophic factor that acts as a trigger for …

We report the observation of a narrow charmoniumlike state produced in the exclusive decay
process B ± → K ± π + π - J / ψ . This state, which decays into π + π - J / ψ , has a mass of …

We present a measurement of the standard model CP violation parameter sin 2 φ 1 based
on a 29.1 fb− 1 data sample collected at the ϒ (4 S) resonance with the Belle detector at the …

We isolated the human adipose-specific and most abundant gene transcript, apM1 (Maeda,
K., et al.,Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun.221, 286–289, 1996). The apM1 gene product …

… (pGRN121) had a 182-bp insert relative to the EST clone, which increased the spacing
between motifs A and B′ (18) and put all seven RT motifs and the telomerase-specific motif T …

… Statistical significance was determined by a paired t test. … The initial atherosclerotic lesion
consists of monocytes/macrophages and T lymphocytes. At this stage, adhesion molecules on …

Insulin resistance and its dreaded consequence, type 2 diabetes, are major causes of
atherosclerosis. Adiponectin is an adipose-specific plasma protein that possesses anti-…
