    Abstract: Problem to be SolvedAn object of the present invention is to provide a separase sensor for visualizing separase activity in a living cell. Another object is to develop a function analysis system of cell division using the separase sensor and further obtain a simple screening method for an anticancer agent.SolutionThe separase sensor of the present invention has two types of fluorescent proteins different in fluorescence wavelength at both ends of an amino acid sequence containing a separase cleavage site and a localization-targeting sequence targeting to a specific site within a cell. Since timing of activating separase and location of separase in a cell can be specified by use of the sensor, cell division can be analyzed and an anticancer agent can be screened.

    Abstract: For diagnosing gastric cancer by magnifying endoscopy with narrow-band imaging or endocytoscopy with narrow-band imaging where light of narrow-band width is used for observation, a high-performance diagnostic method was established. In place of staining with a dye conducted in other organs, pronase is orally administered prior to endoscopic examination and topically administered under endoscopic observation as needed. In this manner, endoscopy can be performed without promoting production of mucosal fluid. In conventional endoscopic examination, a lesion is found and definitive diagnosis is made based on pathological examination. In contrast, this method can provide high diagnostic performance, suggesting that accurate diagnosis equivalent to that provided by pathological examination can be made by endoscopy. Removal of mucosal fluid with pronase is useful in magnifying endoscopy and endocytoscopy.

    Abstract: It is intended to provide a method for determining a tumor. The method for determining a tumor comprises: (1) treating genomic DNA prepared from a subject tissue or cell with bisulfite (the subject tissue or cell is derived from a patient who is affected by a tumor and is determined as (i) having MSI-H of the tumor in MSI examination and/or no or reduced expression of MLH1 in the tumor in immunohistochemical examination, and (ii) having no mutation in MLH1 in genetic examination); 2) amplifying, by PCR, DNA comprising a portion or the whole of MLH1 promoter region from the bisulfite-treated DNA; 3) subjecting the PCR amplification product to ion exchange chromatography to obtain a detection signal; 4) determining whether or not the peak of the detection signal is a peak indicating highly methylated DNA; and 5) determining the tumor as a tumor derived from a patient without Lynch syndrome when the peak is determined as a peak indicating highly methylated DNA.
