Nishimoto S, Zhao J, Dass C
Anal Biochem . 1994 Jan; 216(1):159-64. PMID: 8135347
gamma-Carboxyglutamic acid (Gla)-containing proteins are extracellular proteins with enhanced cation or mineral-binding properties. Discovery of new Gla-containing proteins is facilitated by methods that decrease the number of steps and time...

Nishimoto S, Robinson F, Snyder D
Matrix . 1993 Sep; 13(5):373-80. PMID: 8246833
Age-related changes in connective tissues can alter their functions of elasticity, compressibility and support. Matrix Gla protein (MGP) is a vitamin K-dependent connective tissue component of unknown function. We have...

Araki N, Robinson F, Nishimoto S
J Bone Miner Res . 1993 Mar; 8(3):313-22. PMID: 8456587
A method for sensitive quantitation of bone gla protein (BGP, osteocalcin) mRNA has been developed using competitive polymerase chain reaction after reverse transcription (competitive RT-PCR). The complementary DNA (cDNA) were...

Nishimoto S, Araki N, Robinson F, Waite J
J Biol Chem . 1992 Jun; 267(16):11600-5. PMID: 1597487
The mineralized scale of the freshwater sunfish Lepomis macrochirus (bluegill) contains a Gla protein. The protein was identified in extracts of scale by a new colorimetric assay for Gla-containing proteins....

Tanimoto H, Lau K, Nishimoto S, Wergedal J, Baylink D
Calcif Tissue Int . 1991 Feb; 48(2):101-10. PMID: 1849444
The present study examined the usefulness of the serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, osteocalcin, and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TrACP) activity as bone turnover markers in a calcium depletion/repletion rat model....

Nishimoto S, Padilla S, Snyder D
J Gerontol . 1990 Sep; 45(5):B164-8. PMID: 2394909
Studies were performed to determine the effects of food restriction or a germ-free environment on age-related changes in bone. Four groups of male Lobund-Wistar rats were examined at 6 months,...

Nishimoto S
Anal Biochem . 1990 May; 186(2):273-9. PMID: 2363499
A colorimetric method for the detection of gamma-carboxyglutamic acid (Gla)-containing proteins after reaction with 4-diazobenzenesulfonic acid is presented. Proteins can be visualized after electroblotting from polyacrylamide gels onto membrane supports,...

Villanueva J, Nishimoto S, Nimni M
Matrix . 1989 Jan; 9(1):40-8. PMID: 2710031
Calvaria from 20-21 day old fetuses were obtained under sterile conditions and the endo- and exoperiosteum stripped off. Cells were dispersed by sequential collagenase-DNase treatment and suspended in 0.5% low...

BERNICK S, PAULE W, Ertl D, Nishimoto S, Nimni M
J Orthop Res . 1989 Jan; 7(1):1-11. PMID: 2642300
Implantation of demineralized bone (DB) in the form of powder or intact segments in extra skeletal sites stimulates new bone formation. Urist and co-workers presented substantial evidence that there is...
