The neural circuit of orexin (hypocretin): maintaining sleep and wakefulness

T Sakurai - Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2007 - nature.com
Sleep and wakefulness are regulated to occur at appropriate times that are in accordance
with our internal and external environments. Avoiding danger and finding food, which are life-…

[HTML][HTML] Solar force-free magnetic fields

T Wiegelmann, T Sakurai - Living Reviews in Solar Physics, 2021 - Springer
The structure and dynamics of the solar corona is dominated by the magnetic field. In most
areas in the corona magnetic forces are so dominant that all non-magnetic forces such as …

[HTML][HTML] Orexins and orexin receptors: a family of hypothalamic neuropeptides and G protein-coupled receptors that regulate feeding behavior

T Sakurai, A Amemiya, M Ishii, I Matsuzaki… - Cell, 1998 - cell.com
The hypothalamus plays a central role in the integrated control of feeding and energy
homeostasis. We have identified two novel neuropeptides, both derived from the same precursor …

Cloning of a cDNA encoding a non-isopeptide-selective subtype of the endothelin receptor

T Sakurai, M Yanagisawa, Y Takuwat, H Miyazakit… - Nature, 1990 - nature.com
ENDOTHELIN-1 was initially identified as a 21-residue potent vasoconstrictor peptide produced
by vascular endothelial cells, but was subsequently found to have many effects on both …

[HTML][HTML] Genome sequence of the palaeopolyploid soybean

…, U Hellsten, GD May, Y Yu, T Sakurai, T Umezawa… - nature, 2010 - nature.com
Soybean (Glycine max) is one of the most important crop plants for seed protein and oil
