Insects are well adapted to changing environmental conditions. They have unique systems for eliminating reactive oxygen species (ROS). Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is a key enzyme that plays a primary role in removing ROS. Bombyx mori is a lepidopte...
The possibility that anesthesia during cancer surgery may affect cancer recurrence, metastasis, and patient prognosis has become one of the most important topic of interest in cancer treatment. For example, the volatile anesthetic isoflurane was r...

Individual and small clusters of cancer cells may detach from the edges of a main tumor and invade vessels, which can act as the origin of metastasis; however, the mechanism for this phenomenon is not well understood. Using cancer tissue-originate...
Hypoxia is an insufficient level of oxygen supply in the cell, and hypoxia-inducible factor is a central regulator of oxygen homeostasis. In order to elucidate functional insights in hypoxic response in data-driven way, we attempted meta-analysis ...

Tumor hypoxia contributes to a biologically aggressive phenotype and therapeutic resistance. Recent studies have revealed that hypoxia reduces expression of several DNA damage recognition and repair (DRR) genes via both hypoxia-inducible factor (H...
Gene expression data are exponentially accumulating; thus, the functional annotation of such sequence data from metadata is urgently required. However, life scientists have difficulty utilizing the available data due to its sheer magnitude and com...

The local anesthetic lidocaine induces cell death by altering reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and mitochondrial electron transport chain function. Because hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) is involved in determining oxygen metabolism and...
It is important for public data repositories to promote the reuse of archived data. In the growing field of omics science, however, the increasing number of submissions of high-throughput sequencing (HTSeq) data to public repositories prevents use...
Molecular Targeted Therapy of Lung Cancer 97-115 Jan 2017 [Invited]
Improvement of next-generation sequencing (NGS) has revealed novel driver genes and new therapeutic targets for cancer patients. We summarize here the history of NGS development, current situation of typical analysis pipeline utilizing NGS – espec...
Basement membranes support proliferation, survival, and differentiation of epithelial/parenchymal cells through interaction with cell membrane receptors. Laminins, which have a heterotrimeric structure, are the major class of basement membrane gly...
