摘要:
A non-human animal in which a gene coding for the N-type calcium channel is disrupted to lack functional N-type calcium channel, and a method for screening for a substance having a pharmacological action on blood pressure control, transmission of pain, blood sugar level control and so forth by using the animal.
摘要:
It is an object of the present invention to provide a non-human gene-disrupted animal with a disrupted ADAM11 gene. According to the present invention, a non-human gene-disrupted animal, wherein either one of or both alleles of an ADAM11 gene are disrupted, is provided.
摘要:
The differential display method was used to search for a gene whose expression level in eosinophils collected from patients with atopic dermatitis differs in the exacerbation stage and in the remission stage. As a result, gene “2090-05” showing a significant increase in expression in eosinophils of patients in the remission stage was isolated. This gene is usable in testing for an allergic disease and screening for a candidate compound for a therapeutic agent therefor an allergic disease.

A method of manufacturing a mutilayered printed-wiring-board comprises attaching conductive members on conductive layers, superimposing a plurality of printed-wiring boards, and electrically connecting the conductive layers with one another by the conductive members.
摘要:
A water cooling apparatus for an electric circuit element is disclosed in which an internal waterway is connected with an external waterway by a connector with the whole body, the forward end or the inside part of the forward end thereof alone made of an alloy containing iron, nickel and/or chromium as main components. The water cooling apparatus may further comprise a net of an alloy containing iron, nickel and chromium as main components, the net being stretched in said waterway at the inside part of the forward end of the connector.
摘要:
The present inventors have found that relaxin-3 has a feeding-stimulating activity, a body weight increasing activity, and fat weight increasing activity by intracerebroventricularly administering relaxin-3 to rats and observing the amount of feeding, body weight and fat weight, and so on after the administration. According to the present invention, a polypeptide having useful effects in stimulating feeding, increasing body weight, and fattening; a therapeutic agent containing said polypeptide; a method of screening for a compound, a substance, or a salt thereof which activates or suppresses a receptor of said polypeptide; a kit for said screening; and an agent which comprises a substance which inhibits expression of said polypeptide, such as a feeding-surpressing agent, a therapeutic agent for the treatment of obesity, and a therapeutic agent for the treatment of diabetes.
摘要:
The objects of the present invention are to provide a polypeptide having an antianxiety activity; a therapeutic agent containing the polypeptide; a method for treating anxiety using the polypeptide; a method of screening for a compound capable of activating or suppressing a receptor for the polypeptide and involved in the regulation of anxiety, a salt thereof, or a hydrate of them; and a kit for the screening. There is provided an antianxiety agent containing relaxin-3.
摘要:
Relaxin-3 is found to have feeding-stimulating activity, body weight increasing activity, and fat weight increasing activity when intracerebroventricularly administered to rats through observation of amount of feeding, body weight and fat weight after administration of relaxin-3. This invention includes: a polypeptide having useful effects in stimulating feeding, increasing body weight, and fattening; a therapeutic agent containing the polypeptide; a method of screening for a compound, a substance, or a salt thereof which activates or suppresses a receptor of the polypeptide; a kit for screening; and an agent with a substance which inhibits expression of the polypeptide, such as a feeding-suppressing agent, a therapeutic agent for the treatment of obesity, and a therapeutic agent for the treatment of diabetes.
