BACKGROUND: Five cases of transfusion transmission of hepatitis E virus (HEV) have been
reported so far. The infection routes of the causative donors remain unclear, however. Also, …

Spatially modulated magnetic phases are investigated within the mean field theory for an
itinerant electron model, ie the Hubbard model on a two-dimensional square lattice. By …

Objective To define the antiphospholipid score (aPL‐S) by testing multiple antiphospholipid
antibodies (aPL) and to evaluate its efficacy for the diagnosis of antiphospholipid syndrome (…

We report on a hybrid photoanode for water oxidation consisting of a cyanobacterial
photosystem II (PSII) from Thermosynechococcus elongatus on a mesoporous indium–tin oxide (…

… Masaru Kato Masaru Kato received his PhD degree in chemistry at Saitama University
under the supervision of Prof. Akira Nagasawa, where his studies focused on synthesis and …

Objective To investigate the role of autophagy in the regulation of cell death in rheumatoid
arthritis synovial fibroblasts (RASFs). Methods RASFs and osteoarthritis synovial fibroblasts (…

Dysregulation of Th17 and Treg cells contributes to the pathophysiology of many autoimmune
diseases. Herein, we show that itaconate, an immunomodulatory metabolite, inhibits Th17 …

A novel protein-encapsulation technique using sol−gels was developed for the preparation
of monolithic capillary columns for capillary electrochromatography. Two chiral compounds, …

Photosystem II (PSII) offers a biological and sustainable route of photochemical water oxidation
to O 2 and can provide protons and electrons for the generation of solar fuels, such as H …

In this paper, we demonstrate a facile technique to disperse pristine few-layer graphene (FLG)
in water utilizing a triphenylene based stabilizer (C10) that non-covalently functionalizes …
