Re-Evaluation of Florigen Transport Kinetics with Separation of Functions by Mutations That Uncouple Flowering Initiation and Long-Distance Transport.

In many plants, timing of flowering is regulated by day length. In Arabidopsis, florigen, FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) protein, is synthesized in leaf phloem companion cells in response to long days and is transported to the shoot apical meristem (SAM) through the phloem. The temporal aspects of florigen transportation have been studied in various plants by physiological experiments.

Oral immunotherapy combined with omalizumab for high-risk cow's milk allergy: a randomized controlled trial.

We evaluated the efficacy and safety of oral immunotherapy (OIT) combined with 24 weeks of omalizumab (OMB) at inducing desensitization in children with cow's milk allergy (CM) compared with an untreated group. The present study was a prospective randomized controlled trial. Sixteen patients (age, 6-14 years) with high IgE levels to CM were enrolled in the present study.

Sensitivity of pressor responses to central hypertonic saline is greatly enhanced even in pre-hypertensive spontaneously hypertensive rats.

It has been suggested that intracerebroventricular injection of hypertonic saline mimics the effects of a high salt diet in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), a genetic model of hypertension. Intracerebroventricular injection of hypertonic saline produces an increase in blood pressure and the pressor response to hypertonic saline is enhanced in adult hypertensive SHR. In this study, we examined whether the intracerebroventricular hypertonic saline-induced pressor response is enhanced even in pre-hypertensive SHR.

Central injection of hypertonic saline activates angiotensin II-sensitive neurons in the anterior hypothalamic area of rats.

We have previously reported that microinjection of angiotensin II into the anterior hypothalamic area (AHA) produces pressor responses and that angiotensin II-sensitive neurons in the AHA are tonically activated by endogenous angiotensins in rats. Central injection of hypertonic saline causes pressor responses via release of angiotensins in brain. In this study, we examined whether angiotensin II-sensitive neurons in the AHA are responsive to intracerebroventricular injection of hypertonic saline and whether endogenous angiotensins in the AHA are involved in the central hypertonic saline-induced pressor response.
