Expression of the putative membrane fatty acid transporter (FAT) in taste buds of the circumvallate papillae in rats
- T. Fukuwatari, T. Kawada, +4 authors T. Fushiki
- Biology, Medicine
- FEBS letters
- 8 September 1997
The putative membrane fatty acid transporter (FAT) protein and its mRNA, originally expressed in adipose tissue, were found in the tongue of rats. Northern blot analysis showed a significant… Expand
The Orosensory Recognition of Long-Chain Fatty Acids in Rats
- Miho Tsuruta, T. Kawada, T. Fukuwatari, T. Fushiki
- Chemistry, Medicine
- Physiology & Behavior
- 1 April 1999
To determine the selectivity of long-chain fatty acid (LCFA) in the oral cavity, short-term (5 min) two-bottle tests were conducted in rats. Fifteen male Wistar rats were given oleic acid, linoleic… Expand
Nicotinamide suppresses hyperphosphatemia in hemodialysis patients.
- Y. Takahashi, A. Tanaka, +5 authors H. Koide
- Medicine
- Kidney international
- 1 March 2004
BACKGROUND
The use of calcium- or aluminum-based phosphate binders against hyperphosphatemia is limited by the adverse effects of hypercalcemia or aluminum toxicity in long-term hemodialysis. Because… Expand
Products of the colonic microbiota mediate the effects of diet on colon cancer risk.
- S. O'Keefe, J. Ou, +6 authors T. Mawhinney
- Medicine
- The Journal of nutrition
- 1 November 2009
It is estimated that most colon cancers can be attributed to dietary causes. We have hypothesized that diet influences the health of the colonic mucosa through interaction with the microbiota and… Expand
Effects of UVA Irradiation on the Concentration of Folate in Human Blood
- T. Fukuwatari, M. Fujita, K. Shibata
- Chemistry, Medicine
- Bioscience, biotechnology, and biochemistry
- 23 February 2009
Although it is well known that ultraviolet A (UVA) irradiation destroys folate, no definite conclusion for the biological degradation has yet been drawn. In the present study, we determined the… Expand
Effects of oral stimulation with fats on the cephalic phase of pancreatic enzyme secretion in esophagostomized rats
- T. Hiraoka, T. Fukuwatari, M. Imaizumi, T. Fushiki
- Biology, Medicine
- Physiology & Behavior
- 1 September 2003
Recent studies suggest that there is a chemical perception of dietary fat in the oral cavity. A much greater response in the cephalic phase of pancreatic secretion is obtained by palatable taste… Expand
Elucidation of the Toxic Mechanism of the Plasticizers, Phthalic Acid Esters, Putative Endocrine Disrupters: Effects of Dietary Di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate on the Metabolism of Tryptophan to…
- T. Fukuwatari, Y. Suzuki, E. Sugimoto, K. Shibata
- Chemistry, Medicine
- Bioscience, biotechnology, and biochemistry
- 1 January 2002
We have previously reported that the administration of a large amount of di(n-butyl)phthalate (DBP) increased the conversion ratio of tryptophan to niacin in rats. In the present experiment, the… Expand
Role of gustation in the recognition of oleate and triolein in anosmic rats
- T. Fukuwatari, K. Shibata, K. Iguchi, Tomoko Saeki, T. Fushiki
- Chemistry, Medicine
- Physiology & Behavior
- 1 April 2003
Recent studies suggest a chemical perception of dietary fat in the oral cavity. To examine the role of gustation for the recognition of oleate and triolein, very short-term (5-min), two-bottle… Expand
Identification and expression of alpha cDNA encoding human 2-amino-3-carboxymuconate-6-semialdehyde decarboxylase (ACMSD): a key enzyme for the tryptophan-niacine pathway and quinolinate hypothesis.
- S. Fukuoka, K. Ishiguro, +4 authors K. Shibata
- Biology, Medicine
- Advances in experimental medicine and biology
- 20 September 2002
Quinolinate (quinolinic acid) is a potent endogenous excitotoxin of neuronal cells. Elevation of quinolinate levels in the brain has been implicated in the pathogenesis of various neurodegenerative… Expand
Urinary water-soluble vitamins and their metabolite contents as nutritional markers for evaluating vitamin intakes in young Japanese women.
- T. Fukuwatari, K. Shibata
- Chemistry, Medicine
- Journal of nutritional science and vitaminology
- 1 June 2008
Little information is available to estimate water-soluble vitamin intakes from urinary vitamins and their metabolite contents as possible nutritional markers. Determination of the relationships… Expand
