Japanese transmission

Genetic transmission in nemaline myopathy is the subject of some uncertainty. A Japanese study of 50 pedigrees came to the conclusion that autosomal dominant with reduced penetrance was the most probable mode. However a Finnish study presented evidence for autosomal recessive transmission. There is no evidence that severe and mild forms are genetically distinct and several pedigrees contain members showing widely differing clinical severity. A candidate gene for autosomal dominant nemaline myopathy has been localized to chromosome Iq 21—23.

It has been postulated that transfusion-transmitted virus (TT virus) can be transmitted through heat-treated blood products (16). Transfusion-transmitted virus is a common DNA virus in healthy Japanese, and it lacks a lipid envelope, similar to parvovirus B19 (16,17). Transmission of transfusion-transmitted virus often occurs with blood transfusion and it can cause post-transfusion hepatitis with high postoperative peak alanine transaminase activity (17). No patients with hepatitis due to transfusion-transmitted virus have clinically apparent hepatitis (17). The incidence of transfusion-transmitted virus viremia in patients with hemophiha...

Japanese encephalitis is an arboviral infection spread by mosquitoes in Asia and Oceania. Infection leads to encephalitis in 1 in 20 to 1 in 1000 cases. However, the encephalitis is fatal in about 25% of cases, and neurologic sequelae are manifest in about 30% of cases. Transmission...

Susceptibility and transmission ability of Japanese mosquitoes, Cx. p. pallens, Cx. p. molestus, Cx. inatomii, Ae. albopictus, and Och.japonicus against WNV were analyzed. The Ugandan strain of WNV was used for oral and intrafhoracically-infection of the mosquito species, except Cx. inatomii and Och.japonicus with the New York strain of WNV. They were maintained for 14 days at 28 °C after the infection. And then they were kept at -80 °C until further investigation. Total RNA were extracted individually and RT-PCR was performed to examine the presence of WNV genome in mosquito parts, abdomen, thorax, legs, and head. Infection and transmission procedures were followed by the methods of Eshita et al. [5] and Hayashi et al. [6].
