Nakakura T, Suzuki T, Horiguchi K, Tanaka H, Arisawa K, Miyashita T, et al.
Cell Tissue Res . 2021 Jan; 384(2):449-463. PMID: 33447878
Endothelial fenestrae are the transcellular pores existing on the capillary walls which are organized in clusters referred to as sieve plates. They are also divided by a diaphragm consisting of...

Nakakura T, Suzuki T, Tanaka H, Arisawa K, Miyashita T, Nekooki-Machida Y, et al.
Cell Tissue Res . 2020 Sep; 383(2):823-833. PMID: 32910242
Endothelial fenestrae are transcellular pores that pierce the capillary walls in endocrine glands such as the pituitary. The fenestrae are covered with a thin fibrous diaphragm consisting of the plasmalemma...

Nekooki-Machida Y, Hagiwara H
Med Mol Morphol . 2020 Jul; 53(4):191-197. PMID: 32632910
Acetylation is a well-studied post-translational modification (PTM) of tubulin. Acetylated tubulin is present in the centrioles, primary cilia, and flagella, which contain long-lived stable microtubules. Tubulin acetylation plays an important...

Hui K, Takashima N, Watanabe A, Chater T, Matsukawa H, Nekooki-Machida Y, et al.
Sci Adv . 2019 Apr; 5(4):eaau8237. PMID: 30989111
Dysfunctional mTOR signaling is associated with the pathogenesis of neurodevelopmental and neuropsychiatric disorders. However, it is unclear what molecular mechanisms and pathogenic mediators are involved and whether mTOR-regulated autophagy continues...

Nekooki-Machida Y, Nakakura T, Nishijima Y, Tanaka H, Arisawa K, Kiuchi Y, et al.
Med Mol Morphol . 2018 Jun; 51(4):217-226. PMID: 29869029
Acetylation of α-tubulin is a well-studied posttranscriptional modification, which is mostly catalyzed by α-tubulin N-acetyltransferase (ATAT1). ATAT1 possibly affects various cellular functions related with microtubules, such as intracellular transport, cell...

Endo R, Takashima N, Nekooki-Machida Y, Komi Y, Hui K, Takao M, et al.
Biol Psychiatry . 2018 May; 84(7):509-521. PMID: 29752072
Background: Neurodegenerative diseases involving protein aggregation often accompany psychiatric symptoms. Frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) associated with TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43) aggregation is characterized by progressive neuronal atrophy in frontal...

Cell Tissue Res . 2017 Jul; 370(1):169-178. PMID: 28687926
The production and secretion of adrenocorticotropin, a proopiomelanocortin (POMC)-derived hormone, by corticotrophs in the anterior pituitary, is regulated by corticotrophin-releasing hormone (CRH) and glucocorticoids. We have previously demonstrated that adrenalectomy...

J Clin Invest . 2017 Mar; 127(4):1438-1450. PMID: 28263187
Huntington's disease (HD) is a polyglutamine (polyQ) disease caused by aberrant expansion of the polyQ tract in Huntingtin (HTT). While motor impairment mediated by polyQ-expanded HTT has been intensively studied,...
