Biofactors . 2024 Aug; 51(1):e2108. PMID: 39087587
The mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 4 (MKK4), a member of the MAP kinase kinase family, directly phosphorylates and activates the c-Jun NH2-terminal kinases (JNK), in response to proinflammatory cytokines and...

Katayama R, Kumamoto T, Wada K, Hanashima C, Ohtaka-Maruyama C
J Comp Neurol . 2024 May; 532(6):e25627. PMID: 38813969
During development, cell-intrinsic and cell-extrinsic factors play important roles in neuronal differentiation; however, the underlying mechanisms in nonmammalian species remain largely unknown. We here investigated the mechanisms responsible for the...

Tsurugizawa T, Kumamoto T, Yoshioka Y
STAR Protoc . 2023 Jul; 4(3):102483. PMID: 37516974
Potato starch suspension (PSS) holds promise as a solution to issues, such as air bubbles and specimen motion, associated with micro-magnetic resonance imaging (micro-MRI) of ex vivo embryos. Here, we...

Hatashita Y, Wu Z, Fujita H, Kumamoto T, Livet J, Li Y, et al.
Glia . 2023 Jun; 71(9):2250-2265. PMID: 37259810
Astrocytes participate in information processing by releasing neuroactive substances termed gliotransmitters, including ATP. Individual astrocytes come into contact with thousands of synapses with their ramified structure, but the spatiotemporal dynamics...

Tsurugizawa T, Kumamoto T, Yoshioka Y
iScience . 2022 Dec; 25(12):105694. PMID: 36567713
Magnetic resonance (MR) microimaging of the mouse embryo is a promising tool to noninvasively investigate the microstructure of the brain of a developing mouse. The proton-free fluid is used for...

Kumamoto T, Ohtaka-Maruyama C
Front Neurosci . 2022 May; 16:876406. PMID: 35495046
Visualizing the process of neural circuit formation during neurogenesis, using genetically modified animals or somatic transgenesis of exogenous plasmids, has become a key to decipher cortical development and evolution. In...

Kumamoto T, Tsurugizawa T
Int J Mol Sci . 2021 Oct; 22(19). PMID: 34638653
Astrocytes provide trophic and metabolic support to neurons and modulate circuit formation during development. In addition, astrocytes help maintain neuronal homeostasis through neurovascular coupling, blood-brain barrier maintenance, clearance of metabolites...

Miyatake S, Kato M, Kumamoto T, Hirose T, Koshimizu E, Matsui T, et al.
Sci Adv . 2021 Mar; 7(13). PMID: 33762331
Polymicrogyria is a common malformation of cortical development whose etiology remains elusive. We conducted whole-exome sequencing for 124 patients with polymicrogyria and identified de novo variants in eight patients. Mutated...

Kumamoto T, Maurinot F, Barry-Martinet R, Vaslin C, Vandormael-Pournin S, Le M, et al.
Neuron . 2020 Jun; 107(4):617-630.e6. PMID: 32559415
Stable genomic integration of exogenous transgenes is essential in neurodevelopmental and stem cell studies. Despite tools driving increasingly efficient genomic insertion with DNA vectors, transgenesis remains fundamentally hindered by the...
