Fukumoto J, Yoshida M, Tokuoka S, H Hayakawa E, Miyazaki S, Sakura T, et al.
Commun Biol . 2025 Jan; 8(1):142. PMID: 39880906
The rapid intraerythrocytic replication of Plasmodium falciparum, a deadly species of malaria parasite, requires a quick but constant supply of phospholipids to support marked cell membrane expansion. In the malarial...

Parasitol Int . 2024 Dec; 106:103023. PMID: 39732432
Dense granules (DG) are understudied apical organelles in merozoites, the malaria parasite stage that invades erythrocytes. Only six proteins have been identified which localize to DGs, despite that DG proteins...

Kurotaki D, Kikuchi K, Cui K, Kawase W, Saeki K, Fukumoto J, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2022 Aug; 119(34):e2207009119. PMID: 35969760
Classical dendritic cells (cDCs) are essential for immune responses and differentiate from hematopoietic stem cells via intermediate progenitors, such as monocyte-DC progenitors (MDPs) and common DC progenitors (CDPs). Upon infection,...

Fukumoto J, Sakura T, Matsubara R, Tahara M, Matsuzaki M, Nagamune K
Biol Open . 2021 Sep; 10(9). PMID: 34590698
Most intracellular pathogens replicate in a vacuole to avoid the defense system of the host. A few pathogens recruit host mitochondria around those vacuoles, but the molecules responsible for mitochondrial...

Tokumasu F, Hayakawa E, Fukumoto J, Tokuoka S, Miyazaki S
Parasitol Int . 2021 Apr; 83:102369. PMID: 33905815
Malaria parasites conceal themselves within host erythrocytes and establish a necessary logistics system through the three-membrane layered structures of these cells. To establish this system, lipid metabolism is needed for...

Fukumoto J, Yamano A, Matsuzaki M, Kyan H, Masatani T, Matsuo T, et al.
PLoS One . 2020 Feb; 15(2):e0227749. PMID: 32012177
Toxoplasma gondii is classified into 16 haplogroups based on a worldwide genotyping study of the parasite. However, only a few isolates from Japan were included in this analysis. To conduct...

Parasitol Int . 2019 Jun; 72:101935. PMID: 31153918
Toxoplasma gondii strains have been isolated all over the world and their virulence has been examined mainly using laboratory mice. However, T. gondii differs in virulence depending on the host...

Murakami M, Mori T, Takashima Y, Nagamune K, Fukumoto J, Kitoh K, et al.
J Vet Med Sci . 2018 Nov; 80(12):1881-1886. PMID: 30404954
An 11-year-old cat presented with nasal discharge and lacrimation and was diagnosed with nasal lymphoma. Although the cat showed favorable progression after undergoing chemotherapy, CT imaging demonstrated enlarged pulmonary nodules...
