Interferometric measurement method is described of long-gauge blocks using a fringe-counting interferometer with a 633-nm wavelength-stabilized He-Ne laser. Two sub-gauges, which are made of usual gauge blocks with V-type graduation lines, are optically-contacted with the both sides of a long-gauge block. Using the NRLM 2-m line standard automatic measuring-machine, several gauge blocks up to 1 m are measured with a resettability of 50 nm, and they are also measured by using a traditional excess-fractions method. The result shows that this new method can determine the length of gauge blocks up to 2 m, within an accuracy of 0.15 μm.

We have been developing a spectrometer to record an accurate absorption line profile of a rovibrational transition of acetylene in the 1.54 mum region using an extended cavity laser diode (ECLD) and a mode-locked fiber frequency comb. With the spectrometer, we have recorded the absorption line profiles for various pressures and have observed the collisional narrowing effect on the inhomogeneous Gaussian widths. Information of the Gaussian width which reflects the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution can be used to estimate accurate temperature of the sample gas and also have possibility to provide a way to determine the Boltzmann constant.

Technique of transferring length-information between two distantly-located low-coherence-interferometers through a single-mode-optical-fiber for remote and in-situ calibration of linear scale is developed. Results of 200 nm-deviation and 100 nm-standard deviation for 50 mm-length is preliminary achieved.

Chicken muscular dystrophy with abnormal muscle (AM) has been studied for more than 50 years, but the gene responsible for it remains unclear. Our previous studies narrowed down the AM candidate region to approximately 1Mbp of chicken chromosome 2q containing seven genes. In this study, we performed sequence comparison and gene expression analysis to elucidate the responsible gene. One missense mutation was detected in AM candidate genes, while no remarkable alteration of expression patterns was observed. The mutation was identified in WWP1, detected only in dystrophic chickens within several tetrapods. These results suggested WWP1 is responsible for chicken muscular dystrophy.

An optimized method for amplifying femtosecond pulses by using dispersion management is reported. An amplifier with an optimal amplification region enhances the output power with spectral broadening by adiabatic narrowing in an EDF.

To clarify whether endothelin may be present in human cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and, if it exists, to compare its molecular forms with those of endothelin in human plasma, we analyzed pooled human CSF and plasma by high performance liquid chromatography with specific enzyme immunoassays for each endothelin peptide. Of the four human endothelin peptides hitherto identified, big endothelin-1 was the major molecular form of endothelin present in human CSF. In addition, there was a small but significant amount of endothelin-1 and endothelin-3 in CSF, while endothelin-2 was not detectable. Similarly, big endothelin-1, endothelin-1, and endothelin-3 were identified in human plasma. Although big endothelin-1 was the most abundant, a substantial amount of endothelin-1 and endothelin-3 was found in plasma with a resultant lower molar ratio of big endothelin-1 to endothelin-1 than in CSF. In all CSF samples from 17 patients requiring diagnostic lumbar puncture or lumbar anesthesia, endothelin was detectable, with a preponderance of big endothelin-1 relative to endothelin-1 and endothelin-3. The mean concentrations of endothelin-1 and endothelin-3 in simultaneously collected plasma were significantly (P less than 0.01) higher than those in CSF, while there was no significant difference between the mean big endothelin-1 concentration in plasma and that in CSF. There was no significant correlation among concentrations of big endothelin-1, endothelin-1, and endothelin-3 in each paired sample. These results indicate that endothelin is present in human CSF that is differently processed from endothelin in vascular endothelial cells and suggest a possible role for endothelin as a modulator of neuronal functions.

Plasma immunoreactive endothelin-3 (ir-ET-3) concentrations were measured by a sandwich-enzyme immunoassay (sandwich-EIA) for endothelin-3 (ET-3). The assay method consists of two antibodies directed against N-terminal and C-terminal portions of ET-3. It detects as little as 0.1 pg/well of ET-3 without the crossreaction with endothelin-1, endothelin-2 and big ET-3. Plasma ir-ET-3 concentrations were found to be 0.45 +/- 0.07 pg/ml (mean +/- SD) in healthy volunteers, and were increased in patients undergoing haemodialysis (0.83 +/- 0.26 pg/ml, p less than 0.001). In reverse-phase HPLC, ir-ET-3 in normal plasma and in plasma of haemodialysis patients was eluted at the position of authentic ET-3, indicating that ir-ET-3 in plasma detected by the EIA was ET-3 itself. These results suggest that circulating ET-3 exists in normal human plasma and that production and/or metabolism of ET-3 may be altered in patients undergoing haemodialysis.

In conscious rats, the i.v. injection of endothelin (ET) caused an increase in blood urea nitrogen (BUN), an index of renal dysfunction. In the model of acute renal failure which was induced by occlusion of the bilateral renal arteries of rats followed by reperfusion, ET-monoclonal antibody improved the renal function. In this model, ET-antibody also protected the kidneys from renal proximal tubular necrosis and suppressed Ca++-accumulation in necrotic tissues. Plasma ET level increased 5 min and 5 hr and renal ET content did 5 and 20 hr after reperfusion. BUN level increased 5 and 20 hr after reperfusion. These results strongly suggest that the endogenously increased ET may be one of the important deleterious mediators in the pathogenesis of ischemic acute renal failure.

A super-heterodyne laser interferometer for sub-nanometer length measurement system is proposed. This interferometer has a possibility to realize high resolution by using the self-zooming method and high accuracy by using external cavity diode laser which is stabilized to femtosecond frequency comb(fs-comb) as an optical source. This length measurement system is going to be applied for linear-encoder calibration system for national standards.

A positioning system based on self-zooming laser interferometer is presented. It uses diode lasers locked to two modes of fs-comb. It provides sub-nm resolution and sub-nm accuracy.

Metastin/kisspeptin, the KiSS-1 gene product, has been identified as an endogenous ligand of GPR54 that reportedly regulates GnRH/LH surges and estrous cyclicity in female rats. The aim of the present study was to determine if metastin/kisspeptin neurons are a target of estrogen positive feedback to induce GnRH/LH surges. We demonstrated that preoptic area (POA) infusion of the anti-rat metastin/kisspeptin monoclonal antibody blocked the estrogen-induced LH surge, indicating that endogenous metastin/kisspeptin released around the POA mediates the estrogen positive feedback effect on GnRH/LH release. Metastin/kisspeptin neurons in the anteroventral periventricular nucleus (AVPV) may be responsible for mediating the feedback effect because the percentage of c-Fos-expressing KiSS-1 mRNA-positive cells to total KiSS-1 mRNA-positive cells was significantly higher in the afternoon than in the morning in the anteroventral periventricular nucleus (AVPV) of high estradiol (E(2))-treated females. The percentage of c-Fos-expressing metastin/kisspeptin neurons was not different between the afternoon and morning in the arcuate nucleus (ARC). Most of the KiSS-1 mRNA expressing cells contain ERalpha immunoreactivity in the AVPV and ARC. In addition, AVPV KiSS-1 mRNA expressions were highest in the proestrous afternoon and lowest in the diestrus 1 in females and were increased by estrogen treatment in ovariectomized animals. On the other hand, the ARC KiSS-1 mRNA expressions were highest at diestrus 2 and lowest at proestrous afternoon and were increased by ovariectomy and decreased by high estrogen treatment. Males lacking the surge mode of GnRH/LH release showed no obvious cluster of metastin/kisspeptin-immunoreactive neurons in the AVPV when compared with high E(2)-treated females, which showed a much greater density of these neurons. Taken together, the present study demonstrates that the AVPV metastin/kisspeptin neurons are a target of estrogen positive feedback to induce GnRH/LH surges in female rats.

A continuous-wave (cw) optical frequency synthesizer is demonstrated by using a monolithic-type cw optical parametric oscillator (cw-OPO) and an optical frequency comb. The cw-OPO is phase locked to an optical frequency comb that is phase locked to an atomic clock. The output frequency of the cw-OPO is frequency shifted with an electro-optic modulator, which makes it possible to tune the frequency continuously over 10 GHz. Furthermore, Doppler-free spectroscopy is performed using the optical frequency synthesizer for a cesium D1 line at 895 nm. The observed linewidth of 5 MHz is the natural linewidth of cesium. The center frequency of the line is consistent with a previous report.

Galanin-like peptide (GALP) is a novel orexigenic neuropeptide that is recently isolated from the porcine hypothalamus. GALP-containing neurons predominantly locate in the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus (ARC). The expression of GALP mRNA within the ARC is increased after the administration of leptin. GALP-containing neurons express leptin receptor and contain alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone. We have recently reported that neuropeptide Y (NPY)- and orexin-containing axon terminals are in close apposition with GALP-containing neurons in the ARC. In addition, GALP-containing neurons express orexin-1 receptor (OX1-R). Thus, GALP may function under the influence of leptin and orexin. However, the target neurons of GALP have not yet been clarified. To clarify the neuronal interaction between GALP-containing and other feeding regulating neurons, double-immunostaining method using antibodies against GALP- and orexin- or melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) was performed in the rat lateral hypothalamus (LH). GALP-immunoreactive fibers appeared to project to the LH around the fornix. They were also found from the rostral to the caudal part of the ARC, paraventricular nucleus (PVH), stria terminalis (BST), medial preoptic area (MPA), and lateral septal nucleus (LSV). Moreover, GALP-like immunoreactive nerve fibers were directly contacted with orexin- and melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH)-like immunoreactive neurons in the LH. Our findings strongly suggest that GALP-containing neurons interact with orexin- and/or MCH-containing neurons in the lateral hypothalamus and that it participates in the regulation of feeding behavior in harmony with other feeding-regulating neurons in the hypothalamus.

Galanin-like peptide (GALP) is a novel peptide which is isolated from the porcine hypothalamus. GALP-containing neurons are present in the arcuate nucleus (ARC), being particularly densely concentrated in medial posterior regions. To observe the ultrastructure and synaptic relationships of GALP-containing neurons in the ARC, light and immunoelectron microscopy techniques were used. At the light microscope level, GALP-containing neurons were observed distributed rostrocaudally throughout the ARC, with the majority present in the posterior, periventricular zones. At the electron microscope level, many immunopositive dense-cored vesicles were evident in the perikarya, dendrites and axon terminals of the GALP-containing neurons. Furthermore, these neurons received synapses from immunonegative axon terminals that were symmetric in the case of synapses made on perikarya, and both asymmetric and symmetric for synapses made on dendrites. Axon terminals of GALP-containing neurons often made synapses on immunonegative dendrites. Such synapses were all symmetric. Synapses were also found between axon terminals and perikarya as well as dendrites of GALP-containing neurons. These findings suggest that the physiological role of the GALP-containing neurons in the ARC is based on complex synaptic relationships between GALP-containing neurons and either GALP-immunopositive or -immunonegative neurons.

The repetition rate and carrier-envelope phase offset frequencies of a turnkey, all-fiber-based continuum generator were phase locked to a hydrogen maser. The frequency of the hydrogen maser was calibrated with a highly stable cesium atomic clock, and therefore a fully phase-locked optical frequency comb with well-defined absolute frequencies was obtained. In contrast with the commonly used Ti:sapphire-laser-based systems, we have accomplished a fully turnkey system with no user-adjustable parts. To evaluate the performance of this novel system, we performed absolute frequency measurements in the telecommunications region and at 1064 nm and compared them with our traditional Ti:sapphire-based comb.

Prolactin-releasing peptide (PrRP) is known to be produced in A1/A2 noradrenergic neurons and to mediate the stress response. Our preliminary experiment showed that PrRP neurons in the A2 region differed between males and females in terms of c-Fos expression. In addition it has been reported that estrogen receptor α is detectable in A2 PrRP neurons. Therefore, we speculated that the stress response of PrRP neurons is modified by estrogen. We, therefore, examined c-Fos expression in A2 PrRP neurons during the estrous cycle and found that c-Fos accumulation in PrRP neurons was significantly decreased in estrus compared with in proestrus, metestrus and diestrus. This suggests that estrogen suppresses the activation of PrRP neurons. We thus administered diethylstilbestrol (DES) to ovariectomized rats and then added restraint stress. The data clearly showed that PrRP cells in DES-administered rats significantly suppressed c-Fos accumulation induced by stress.

This paper reports on the development of an ultrahigh accuracy distance meter (femtosecond-comb distance meter (FCDM)) with a simple setup and reliability for a practical measurement using a broad and stable femtosecond frequency comb. The distance meter is expected for a length standard as well as industrial applications. In this study, a 2-/spl mu/m uncertainty in the FCDM by using 10-GHz beat frequencies is achieved.

We have been developing optical frequency standards based on absorption lines of acetylene molecules. Using optical frequency comb generators such as a mode-locked fiber laser, we are now measuring difference frequencies between each rotational-vibrational transition and a P(16) line of acetylene molecule. These transitions can be used as accurate frequency references for the calibration at telecom region

Absolute frequencies of an acetylene-stabilized laser at 1542 nm and an iodine-stabilized Nd:YAG at 1319 nm are measured at their second harmonics by use of a femtosecond optical comb based on a mode-locked Ti:sapphire laser. A frequency measurement system based on a mode-locked fiber laser (1.56mum) is also being developed for metrological applications in the telecommunication bands

We are developing a highly stable optical-microwave frequency link system. We consider the stability-degradation factors in the frequency link system to be the synthesis, the phase lock and the photo detection system of the repetition frequency. We evaluated these factors by undertaking phase noise measurements

An ultrahigh accuracy distance meter with a simple setup and high reliability for a practical measurement is developed using a broad and stable femtosecond frequency comb. This device is fabricated to overcome the problem of cyclic error that originates from the electric and optical crosstalks. Since the femtosecond-comb distance meter (FCDM) does not require an external modulator, the setup is simple and thus the cyclic error is significantly suppressed. In this study, a world-record 2-/spl mu/m uncertainty in the FCDM is achieved.

Metastin is a novel peptide that has been isolated from the human placenta as the cognate ligand of the G-protein-coupled receptor OT7T175 (or GPR54). However, its physiological functions have not yet been fully investigated. In the present study, we show that subcutaneous administration of metastin increased the plasma levels of gonadotropins (follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone) and induced ovulation in prepubertal female rats that had been pretreated with pregnant mare serum gonadotropin to induce follicle maturation. Furthermore, metastin administration drastically increased the plasma levels of gonadotropins in male rats. This action was abolished by pretreatment with a GnRH antagonist, and was accompanied by induction of c-Fos immunoreactivity in GnRH neurons. These results suggest that s.c. administered metastin induces the release of gonadotropin via activation of the hypothalamic GnRH neurons.

The absolute frequency of an acetylene-stabilized laser at 1542 nm is measured at its second harmonic (771 nm) by use of a femtosecond optical comb based on a mode-locked Ti:sapphire laser. Frequency stability and reproducibility of the acetylene-stabilized laser are evaluated by the femtosecond comb with a H maser as a frequency reference. The absolute frequency of a laser diode stabilized on the P(16) transition of 13C2H2 is determined to be 194 369 569 383.6(1.3) kHz. The acetylene-stabilized laser serves as an important optical frequency standard for telecommunication applications.

NMIJ line standard interferometer has been modified for measurement of a linear scale module with analog output. The interferometer was developed for line standard calibration. The light source is a stabilized He-Ne laser. Before the modification, a line standard can be calibrated with an uncertainty of about 0.2 micrometer for the total length of 500 mm (k=2). After the modification, a linear scale module can be calibrated as well as a line standard. A linear scale is set in a support on a moving carriage. The displacement of the moving carriage is measured by the interferometer with a sampling frequency of 30 kHz to 300 kHz while the electronic output of the linear scale module is sampled with the same timing. The analog output of the line scale module is used instead of digital output because it is important to assure the simultaneous sampling of the displacement and the scale output.

High-accuracy long-distance is performed using a broad and stable femtosecond frequency comb. Cyclic-error, which has been the main source of inaccuracy in conventional measurements, is reduced more than tenfold, directly achieving high accuracies of 50 μm at 1-GHz frequency and 14 μm at 10-GHz frequency in a 240-m distance measurement using the phase measurement of intermode beats of a femtosecond frequency comb. Traceability of distance meters is discussed.

A low-coherence tandem interferometer with a single-mode optical fiber is developed for remote-measurement of length. The optical path difference provided in the first low-coherence interferometer is transmitted through the optical fiber to the second low-coherence interferometer. Low-coherence interference fringes are generated when the optical path difference in the second interferometer, which correspond to the length being measured, compensates that of the first interferometer. A gauge block of 50 mm long has been calibrated remotely through the single-mode optical fiber of 3 km length with a stnadard deviation of 0.12 μm.

A new remote-measurement technique of length is developed, by using a low-coherence tandem interferometer and a single-mode optical fiber. The optical path length with a gauge block in the first low-coherence interferometer is transmitted through the optical fiber to the second interferometer. And then the interference fringes containing the length information are generated and detected with high accuracy.

A Novel setup for two-dimensional (2-D) parallel measurements of low-coherence heterodyne signal by using a tandem interferometer and a 2-D sensor has been developed. Generally speaking, it is difficult to obtain heterodyne signals whose frequencies are much higher than the frame rate of the coventional 2-D sensor. A mode-locked femtosecond laser (MLFL) is used as a light source.

A Fourier transform spectrometer with heterodyne modulation using a moving diffraction grating has been developed for the NIR region. The grating simultaneously acts as a beam splitter and a modulator, which realizes optical frequency shift of incident light for increasing the sensitivity of measurement by heterodyne modulation technique. The difference of diffraction angle is compensated by a collimating lens or a mirror and plane mirrors.

A new low-coherence interferometric technique is proposed for measuring the group refractive indices of dispersive samples with high accuracy. A tandem configuration of interferometers is used to compensate for the asymmetrical distortion of interferograms that results from the broad spectrum of the light source. The group refractive index can be measured without knowledge of the geometrical thickness of the sample under test. The proposed technique can successfully measure even a thick sample. Computer calculations have shown the effectiveness of the proposed technique, which was verified by preliminary experiments; the difference between the experimental result and the catalog data was 7 x 10(-4).

An international comparison of two independent absolute optical frequency measurements between NMIJ/AIST, Japan and JILA, USA has been made using a portable Nd:YAG laser. The agreement between the two measurements is 330/spl plusmn/380 Hz, yielding a measurement uncertainty of 6.7/spl times/10/sup -13/ that is mainly contributed from the reproducibility of the portable laser. This comparison is used to confirm the measured absolute frequency of NMIJ-Y3, which is reported to the Consultative Committee for Length (CCL) for the determination of the frequency value of iodine-stabilized Nd:YAG lasers.

Galanin-like peptide (GALP) is a novel peptide that has been isolated from the porcine hypothalamus. The expression of GALP mRNA is localized to the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus and is thought to be under the regulation of leptin. First, we confirmed by real-time PCR analysis that sc administration of leptin to Wistar rats under food-deprived conditions resulted in a 1.5-fold increase in hypothalamic GALP mRNA levels. Next, GALP mRNA levels were found to be reduced by 50% in 11-wk-old male Zucker obese rats compared with age-matched Zucker lean rats, whereas neuropeptide Y mRNA levels were increased by 55% and proopiomelanocortin mRNA levels were reduced by 53% in Zucker obese rats. Analysis using a two-site enzyme immunoassay revealed a lower level of hypothalamic GALP immunoreactivity in 11-wk-old Zucker obese rats (5.9 fmol/mg protein) than in age-matched Zucker lean rats (19.6 fmol/mg protein). Immunohistochemical studies demonstrated that Zucker obese rats (11 wk old) had a reduced number of GALP immunoreactivity-positive cells (29.4 cells/3 slices) in the arcuate nucleus compared with age-matched Zucker lean rats (115 cells/3 slices). Furthermore, Zucker obese rats showed increased sensitivity to intracerebroventricularly administered GALP compared with Zucker lean rats, in that a lower dose of GALP increased plasma LH levels in male Zucker obese rats, but not in male Zucker lean rats. In addition, a reduction in the level of hypothalamic GALP mRNA was found in db/db and ob/ob mice. The result supports the hypothesis that the hypothalamic GALP gene expression is controlled by leptin signals and suggests possible involvement of GALP in the reproductive abnormalities of the Zucker obese rat.

Metastin is a novel peptide that was recently isolated from human placenta as the endogenous ligand of an orphan heptahelical receptor, hOT7T175. Metastin has been shown to suppress the motility of hOT7T175-transfected melanoma cells; however, studies of the physiological function of metastin have begun only recently. To investigate the possibility that metastin is an endocrine peptide, we determined the immunoreactive (ir-) metastin concentration in human plasma using our newly developed, sensitive, and specific two-site enzyme immunoassay. The plasma concentrations of ir-metastin in males and females were 1.30 +/- 0.14 (n = 12) and 1.31 +/- 0.37 fmol/ml (n = 10), respectively. As metastin is known to be abundant in human placenta, the ir-metastin concentration in the maternal plasma was then determined. The ir-metastin concentrations were 1230 +/- 346 fmol/ml (n = 11) in the first trimester, 4590 +/- 555 (n = 16) in the second trimester, and 9590 +/- 1640 (n = 12) in the third trimester. On d 5 after delivery, the ir-metastin concentration returned to nearly the nonpregnant level (7.63 +/- 1.33 fmol/ml; n = 10), suggesting that ir-metastin increases in pregnancy and is derived mainly from the placenta. The plasma from both nonpregnant and pregnant women showed a single ir-metastin peak at the same retention time as authentic metastin on reverse phase HPLC analysis, indicating that the major portion of the circulating metastin, as determined by our two-site enzyme immunoassay, represents endogenous metastin. Histochemical studies of human placenta localized metastin mRNA and immunoreactivity to the syncytiotrophoblasts. The present study provides evidence for metastin as a novel placenta-derived hormone in humans.

A single-phase voltage-quadrupler rectifier using only one dual-switch power module is presented. This is based on the half-bridge converter and the higher output voltage can easily be obtained by introducing the pumping action. The prototype, employing a power module with two insulated-gate bipolar transistors, is implemented. The experimental results under the current-mode control confirm that the input current can be wave-shaped sinusoidally with a near-unity power factor.

Application of resonant snubber switch cell to a single-phase buck rectifier is studied. The resonant snubber switch cell consists of an only active power switching device and a LC resonant circuit. The active power switching device is then turned on and off under the soft switching conditions. The experimental results under the sinusoidal pulse-width modulation (PWM) confirm that the input current can nearly be wave-shaped sinusoidally with a near-unity power factor.

今回,0.543μm He-Neレーザ,0.633μm He-Neレーザ及び1.06μm YAGレーザを光源とした,直線計を構成することによって,レーザビームのゆらぎ(ダンシング)は波長によって異なり,波長が長いとゆらぎが小さくなることが分かった.最終的には0.543μmと1.06μmの波長によって20m程度の距離で角度で約1.3×10-6rad(0.27'')の測定精度が実現され,また補正率は約87%であることが分かった.
