Purpose: We assessed the diagnostic value of whole body magnetic resonance (MR)
imaging (WB-MRI) using diffusion-weighted images (DWI) for detecting bone metastasis and …

An in vitro system for the production of hepatitis B virus (HBV) particles was established by the
transient expression of transfected HBV DNA using a human hepatocellular carcinoma cell…

Fast and wide field-of-view imaging with single-cell resolution, high signal-to-noise ratio, and
no optical aberrations have the potential to inspire new avenues of investigations in biology…

Human hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) are two major etiologic agents of
chronic hepatitis, which is closely related to the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (…

Reprogramming of antigen-specific T lymphocytes into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs)
and their subsequent re-differentiation has enabled expansion of functional T lymphocytes …

For each of eleven different types of nuclear genes, comparisons of the protein coding
sequences were made between human, mouse and rat pairwisely, and the evolutionary rate of …

Purpose: To compare the effectiveness of whole body MRI (WB-MRI [magnetic resonance
imaging]) and bone scintigram (BS) at detecting bone metastasis. Materials and Methods: WB-…

Although innate immune responses are necessary for the initiation of acquired immune
responses and the subsequent successful elimination of pathogens, excessive responses …

To examine the transforming potential of the × gene product of hepatitis B virus (HBV), the X‐gene‐containing
region (referred to as the HBx region) was introduced into mouse NIH3T3 …

The complete nucleotide sequence of hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA from Dane particles of
subtype adr was determined. The 3215-bp sequence showed the presence of genes for the …
