Heart rate changes related to risky selections and outcomes in a rat gambling task

F. Fukushima, A. Tamura, N. Kuga, T. Sasaki

This study shows that rats exhibit distinct heart rate changes before and after selecting risky versus certain options in a gambling task.

Systematic Discovery of Phage Genes that Inactivate Bacterial Immune Systems

S. Ojima, A. H. Azam, K. Kondo, W. Nie, S. Wang, K. Chihara, A. Tamura, W. Yamashita, T. Nakamura, Y. Sugawara, M. Sugai, B. Zhu, Y. Takahashi, K. Watashi, K. Kiga

This study identifies phage genes that inactivate bacterial immune systems by testing gene deletions in a phage library against bacterial defense systems.

Viruses encode tRNA and anti-retron to evade bacterial immunity

A. H. Azam, K. Chihara, K. Kondo, T. Nakamura, S. Ojima, A. Tamura, W. Yamashita, L. Cui, Y. Takahashi, K. Watashi, K. Kiga

This study identifies two viral strategies to evade bacterial retrons: supplying tRNATyr to counteract retron 78 and using Rad to degrade retron noncoding RNA precursors.

Selective bacteriophages reduce the emergence of resistant bacteria in the bacteriophage-antibiotic combination therapy

A. H. Azam, K. Sato, K. Miyanaga, T. Nakamura, S. Ojima, K. Kondo, A. Tamura, W. Yamashita, Y. Tanji, K. Kiga

This study shows that selecting specific bacteriophages in combination with antibiotics can reduce the emergence of resistant bacteria, using Escherichia coli O157:H7 as a model.
