Abstract: A vehicle front portion structure including: a front side member that extends in a vehicle longitudinal direction at a vehicle transverse direction outer side portion of a vehicle front portion and includes a projecting portion that projects-out toward a vehicle transverse direction outer side at an outer side wall at a front end portion; a spacer that is provided at a vehicle transverse direction outer side of the front side member and is fastened to the outer side wall at a vehicle front side of the projecting portion, and that has an adjacent portion that is adjacent to a vehicle transverse direction outer side of the projecting portion; and an engaging portion that is formed at the spacer and is disposed at a vehicle front side with respect to the projecting portion, and that engages with a front end of the projecting portion in the vehicle longitudinal direction.

Abstract: A vehicle front section structure includes: a pair of left and right front side members extending along a vehicle front-rear direction at both vehicle width direction sides of a power unit installed in a vehicle front section; a spacer including an angled wall that is provided at a side face on a vehicle width direction outer side of the front side member, that is disposed at the vehicle width direction outer side of the side face, and that increases in distance from the side face on progression toward a vehicle front side, and including a rear end wall extending from a rear end of the angled wall toward the side face, and a spacer extension portion that is provided at the vehicle width direction outer side of the angled wall of the spacer, and that includes an extension wall extending the rear end wall of the spacer toward the vehicle width direction outer side.

Abstract: An extension portion extending out toward the vehicle width direction outer side is provided at a rear face of a vehicle width direction outer side end portion of bumper reinforcement. A projection portion projecting out toward the vehicle front side is disposed at a front face of the extension portion, at a position separated to the vehicle width direction outer side of the vehicle width direction outer side end portion of the bumper reinforcement. A front end portion of a spacer, having a rear end portion joined to the side face on the vehicle width direction outer side of a front side member and extending out to the vehicle width direction outer side of the front side member, is joined to a rear face of the extension portion.

Abstract: An eosinophil chemotactic factor which is constantly secreted by a T cell clone STO-2 is partially purified and a specific antibody was generated. Using this antibody, a DNA library derived from the clone was screened to find that ecalectin, a galectin consisting of 323 amino acids has a specific eosinophil chemotactic activity. Use of the galectin makes it possible to provide an agent having an effect of increasing eosinophils in a tissue, and a method for screening compounds inhibiting the effect. Moreover, an agent containing as an effective ingredient a compound that inhibits eosinophil increase in a tissue, is effective as therapeutic, preventive or ameliorative agents for various allergic diseases, such as bronchial asthma, allergic rhinitis, eosinophilic tympanitis, nasal polyp, eosinophilic pneumonia, and atopic dermatitis, which are typical delayed inflammatory diseases attributed to eosmophils.

Abstract: Disclosed is a citrus tree having a moderate spreading vigor, and bearing medium size and rounded fruit with an orange skin color. This new and distinct variety of citrus tree is a late maturing citrus cultivar, is bred by a crossing of "Kiyomi" (the seed parent) and "Okitsu-wase" (the pollen parent), Citrus unshiu, bears good quality fruit, and is an excellent citrus cultivar.

Abstract: Disclosed is a citrus tree having a moderate spreading vigor, and bearing medium size and compressed round shaped fruit with a deep orange skin color and a low acidity. This new and distinct variety of citrus tree is an early maturing citrus cultivar, is fairly resistant to diseases, was bred by a crossing of "Seike navel" (the seed parent) and "Clementine" (the pollen parent), bears good quality fruit, and is an excellent citrus cultivar.
