BCAA catabolism in skeletal muscle is regulated by the branched-chain α-keto acid
dehydrogenase (BCKDH) complex, located at the second step in the BCAA catabolic pathway. The …

The authors examined the effect of branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) supplementation on
squat-exercise-induced delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS) using 12 young, healthy, …

An unusual feature of valine catabolism is a reaction in which an intermediate of its catabolic
pathway, (S)-3-hydroxyisobutyryl-CoA, is hydrolyzed to give the free acid and CoA-SH. The …

Describes a method for distinguishing the types of forward objects detected on and alongside
the road using a vehicle-mounted scanning laser radar (SLR) and a camera. This method …

The effects of a diet supplemented with branched-chain amino acids (BCAA; 4.8% or 6.2%)
on BCAA catabolism and glycogen metabolism in rats were examined. Rats were fed a …

We investigated the effect of culture temperature on the maximum specific growth rate and
cellular sugar accumulation, and the effect of a temperature shift on the sugar accumulation of …

Aggressive affections of automobile drivers such as irritation often cause unpleasant
experiences and ultimately road rage. Detecting their cues from drivers' behaviors and obviating …

… Noriko Ishikawa contributed at the early stage of this research. We thank KE Spier and
two referees for very useful comments and suggestions. We are also grateful to J. …

HSP90 is involved in stability and function of cancer-related proteins. This study was
conducted to define the MTD, safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary …

Conclusion This paper proposed a vehicle-mountable method where the parameters
indicating the characteristic features of pedestrians are extracted to detect pedestrians. By …
