    NKU Academic Exchange in Gifu, Japan https://www.cia.gov Spend an academic year studying at Gifu University! A brief introduction… Office of Education Abroad (859) 572-6908 NKU Academic Exchanges The Office of Education Abroad offers academic exchanges as a study abroad option for independent and mature NKU students interested in a semester or year-long immersion experience in another country. The information in this packet is meant to provide an overview of the experience available through an academic exchange in Gifu, Japan. However, please keep in mind that this information, especially that regarding visa requirements, is subject to change. It is the responsibility of each NKU student participating in an exchange to take the initiative in the pre- departure process with regards to visa application, application to the exchange university, air travel arrangements, housing arrangements, and pre-approval of courses.

Japan Japan is home to almost 128 million people spread out on over 3,000 islands. The four main islands, Honshu, Hokkaido, Kyushu, and Shikoku, account for 97% of Japan’s total land area. Over 70% of the country is forested, mountainous, and unsuitable for agricultural or residential use. The beauty of nature, undisturbed by humans, will surround and astound you. Legend attributes the creation of Japan to the sun goddess, from whom the emperors were thought to be descended. In acknowledgement of this, the characters that make up Japan’s name translate to “sun-origin” and give Japan its nickname of the “Land of the Rising Sun.” Japan’s culture has evolved greatly over the years from its traditional ways to its current culture, which includes influences from Europe, North American, and the rest of Asia.

  • Improved Myocardial Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury in Mice
    Journal of the American College of Cardiology Vol. 39, No. 7, 2002 © 2002 by the American College of Cardiology Foundation ISSN 0735-1097/02/$22.00 Published by Elsevier Science Inc. PII S0735-1097(02)01738-2 Improved Myocardial Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury in Mice Lacking Tumor Necrosis Factor-␣ Naoya Maekawa, BSC,* Hisayasu Wada, MD, PHD,* Tsugiyasu Kanda, MD, PHD,‡ Tamikazu Niwa, BSC,* Yasuhiro Yamada, MD, PHD,* Kuniaki Saito, PHD,* Hisayoshi Fujiwara, MD, PHD,† Kenji Sekikawa, PHD,§ Mitsuru Seishima, MD, PHD* Gifu, Maebashi and Tsukuba, Japan OBJECTIVES This study sought to assess the role of tumor necrosis factor-␣ (TNF-␣) in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury using TNF-␣ knockout (KO) mice. BACKGROUND Tumor necrosis factor-␣ is thought to be involved in the pathogenesis of myocardial I/R injury by promoting leukocyte infiltration of the myocardium. However, the precise role of TNF-␣ in I/R injury is still unknown. METHODS The hearts in TNF-␣ KO and wild-type (WT) mice were exposed by left lateral thoracotomy, and the left coronary artery was occluded for 30 min then reperfused for 120 min. RESULTS The infarct size in TNF-␣ KO mice was significantly reduced compared with WT mice. The frequency of arrhythmia was decreased, and cardiac function during reperfusion was significantly improved in TNF-␣ KO mice compared with WT mice. The activation of nuclear factor-␬B (NF-␬B), the expression of chemokines and adhesion molecules and the infiltration of leukocytes were also significantly reduced in TNF-␣ KO mice, compared with WT mice. These findings provide evidence that TNF-␣ aggravates I/R injury. CONCLUSIONS Tumor necrosis factor-␣ exacerbates myocardial I/R injury at an early stage of reperfusion by activating NF-␬B, thereby inducing chemokines and adhesion molecules and facilitating leukocyte infiltration.
