| 1 | 柴达木北缘超高压变质带中的岛弧火山岩显示文摘青藏高原北部柴北缘发育一套与超高压变质带并行的早古生代岛弧火山岩带,岛弧火山岩以玄武岩类为主,包括一些中酸性岩类,岩石以普遍遭受绿片岩相蚀变为特征,区别于该地区普遍遭受角闪岩相区域变质的元古代的基性火山岩。该早古生代的岛孤火山岩显示三组地球化学特征:①VTG-Ⅰ,岛弧拉斑玄武岩(IAT);②VTG-Ⅱ,高Al次钙碱性-碱性过渡型玄武岩;③VTG-Ⅲ,较N-MORB更亏损的拉斑玄武岩(异常MORB)。研究认为前两组火山岩是成熟岛弧两个发育阶段的特征性产物:洋壳俯冲到陆壳的初用,由俯冲洋壳和地幔楔的部分熔融形成岛弧拉斑玄武岩(IAT),随着俯冲板块的速度加快和岛弧周围地壳的加厚,则形成钙碱性玄武岩(CA)、高Al玄武岩。第三组火山岩形成于弧间盆地,由亏损的地幔楔高度部分熔融形成比N-MORB亏损的的火山岩(异常MORB)。岛弧火山岩的锆石LA-ICP-MS法U-Pb年龄为514.2±8.5 Ma,说明柴北缘在早古生代发生过洋壳向陆壳的俯冲作用。鉴于该地区代表陆-陆俯冲作用的柴北缘超高压变质岩石也是形成于早古生代(494Ma),认为陆-陆俯冲作用发生在洋-陆俯冲作用之后,二者时间和空间相伴随。 | 史仁灯 杨经绥 吴才来 Tsuyoshi IIZUKA Takafumi HIRATA | 2004 | 地质学报2004,78,1: | 116 |
| 2 | Initial management for acute lower gastrointestinal bleeding显示文摘Acute lower gastrointestinal bleeding(LGIB) is a common indication for hospital admission. Patients with LGIB often experience persistent or recurrent bleeding and require blood transfusions and interventions, such as colonoscopic,radiological, and surgical treatments. Appropriate decision-making is needed to initially manage acute LGIB, including emergency hospitalization, timing of colonoscopy, and medication use. In this literature review, we summarize the evidence for initial management of acute LGIB. Assessing various clinical factors,including comorbidities, medication use, presenting symptoms, vital signs, and laboratory data is useful for risk stratification of severe LGIB, and for discriminating upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Early timing of colonoscopy had the possibility of improving identification of the bleeding source, and the rate of endoscopic intervention, compared with elective colonoscopy. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography before colonoscopy may help identify stigmata of recent hemorrhage on colonoscopy, particularly in patients who can be examined immediately after the last hematochezia. How to deal with nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs(NSAIDs) and antithrombotic agents after hemostasis should be carefully considered because of the risk of rebleeding and thromboembolic events. In general, aspirin as primary prophylaxis for cardiovascular events and NSAIDs were suggested to be discontinued after LGIB. Managing acute LGIB based on this information would improve clinical outcomes. Further investigations are needed to distinguish patients with LGIB who require early colonoscopy and hemostatic intervention. | Tomonori Aoki Yoshihiro Hirata Atsuo Yamada Kazuhiko Koike | 2019 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2019,25,1: | 28 |
| 3 | Characteristics and predictors of gastric cancer after Helicobacter pylori eradication显示文摘Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori) eradication can reduce gastric cancer. However, gastric cancer still develops after eradication, and cases who received eradication therapy are increasing. In this study, we have reviewed the characteristics and predictors of primary gastric cancer developing after H. pylori eradication. In terms of the characteristics, endoscopic, histologic, and molecular characteristics are reported. Endoscopically, gastric cancer after eradication is often depressedtype and shows a gastritis-like appearance, which sometimes makes the diagnosis difficult. Histologically, most gastric cancer after eradication is intestinal type, and non-neoplastic epithelium, also called epithelium with low-grade atypia, is frequently seen over the tumor, which is presumably the cause of the endoscopic gastritis-like appearance. As for molecular characteristics, some markers, such as Ki67, MUC2, and Wnt5a expression, are lower in cancer from patients in whom H. pylori has been eradicated. In terms of predictors, several Japanese studies have reported that severe endoscopic atrophy at eradication is a risk factor for gastric cancer development. Histologic intestinal metaplasia, especially in the corpus, and long-term use of proton pump inhibitors, are also reported as risk factors for gastric cancer after H. pylori eradication. These studies on the characteristics and predictors of gastric cancer development will become the cornerstone for establishing a novel surveillance program based on the gastric cancer risk stratification specific to H. pylori-eradicated patients. | Satoki Shichijo Yoshihiro Hirata | 2018 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2018,24,20: | 25 |
| 4 | Evaluation of the effect of pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate in suppressing inflammation in mice with dextran sodium sulfate-induced colitis显示文摘AIM: To evaluate the effect of pyrrolidine dithio- carbamate (PDTC; an NF-κB inhibitor) administered at low (50 mg/kg) and high (100 mg/kg) doses in suppressing colitis in mice with dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis. METHODS: Mice were divided into a DSS-untreated group (normal group), DSS-treated control group, DSS+PDTC-treated groupⅠ(low-dose group), and DSS+PDTC-treated groupⅡ (high-dose group). In each group, the disease activity index score (DAI score), intestinal length, histological score, and the levels of activated NF-κB and inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β and TNF-α) in tissue were measured. RESULTS: The DSS+PDTC-treated groupⅡ exhibited suppression of shortening of intestinal length and reduction of DAI score. Activated NF-κB level and IL-1β and TNF-α levels were significantly lower in DSS+PDTC- treated groupⅡ. CONCLUSION: These findings suggest that PDTC is useful for the treatment of ulcerative colitis. | Ichiro Hirata Shingo Yasumoto Ken Toshina Takuya Inoue Takashi Nishikawa Naoko Murano Mitsuyuki Murano Fang-Yu Wang Ken-ichi Katsu | 2007 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2007,13,11: | 20 |
| 5 | Alterations in the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-v-Akt pathway in gastric cancer显示文摘AIM:To investigate human epidermal growth factor receptor 2(HER2)-phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase(PI3K)-vAkt murine thymoma viral oncogene homolog signaling pathway.METHODS:We analyzed 231 formalin-fixed,paraffinembedded gastric cancer tissue specimens from Japanese patients who had undergone surgical treatment.The patients' age,sex,tumor location,depth of invasion,pathological type,lymph node metastasis,and pathological stage were determined by a review of the medical records.Expression of HER2 was analyzed by immunohistochemistry(IHC) using the HercepTest TM kit.Standard criteria for HER2 positivity(0,1+,2+,and 3+) were used.Tumors that scored 3+ were considered HER2-positive.Expression of phospho Akt(pAkt) was also analyzed by IHC.Tumors were considered pAkt-positive when the percentage of positive tumor cells was 10% or more.PI3K,catalytic,alpha polypeptide(PIK3CA) mutations in exons 1,9 and 20 were analyzed by pyrosequencing.Epstein-Barr virus(EBV) infection was analyzed by in situ hybridization targeting EBV-encoded small RNA(EBER) with an EBER-RNA probe.Microsatellite instability(MSI) was analyzed by polymerase chain reaction using the mononucleotide markers BAT25 and BAT26.RESULTS:HER2 expression levels of 0,1+,2+ and 3+ were found in 167(72%),32(14%),12(5%) and 20(8.7%) samples,respectively.HER2 overexpression(IHC 3+) significantly correlated with intestinal histological type(15/20 vs 98 /205,P = 0.05).PIK3CA mutations were present in 20 cases(8.7%) and significantly correlated with MSI(10/20 vs 9/211,P < 0.01).The mutation frequency was high(21%) in T4 cancers and very low(6%) in T2 cancers.Mutations in exons 1,9 and 20 were detected in 5(2%),9(4%) and 7(3%) cases,respectively.Two new types of PIK3CA mutation,R88Q and R108H,were found in exon1.All PIK3CA mutations were heterozygous missense singlebase substitutions,the most common being H1047R(6/20,30%) in exon20.Eighteen cancers(8%) were EBV-positive and this positivity significantly correlated with a diffuse histological type(13/18 vs 93/198,P = 0.04).There were 7 cases of lymphoepithelioma-like carcinomas(LELC) and 6 of those cases were EBV-positive(percent/EBV:6/18,33%;percent/all LELC:6/7,86%).pAkt expression was positive in 119(53%) cases but showed no correlation with clinicopathological characteristics.pAkt expression was significantly correlated with HER2 overexpression(16/20 vs 103/211,P < 0.01) but not with PIK3CA mutations(12/20 vs 107/211,P = 0.37) or EBV infection(8/18 vs 103/211,P = 0.69).The frequency of pAkt expression was higher in cancers with exon20 mutations(100%) than in those with exon1(40%) or exon9(56%) mutations.One case showed both HER2 overexpression and EBV infection and 3 cases showed both PIK3CA mutations and EBV infection.However,no cases showed both PIK3CA mutations and HER2 overexpression.One EBVpositive cancer with PIK3CA mutation(H1047R) was MSI-positive.Three of these 4 cases were positive for pAkt expression.In survival analysis,pAkt expression significantly correlated with a poor prognosis(hazard ratio 1.75;95%CI:1.12-2.80,P = 0.02).CONCLUSION:HER2 expression,PIK3CA mutations and EBV infection in gastric cancer were characterized.pAkt expression significantly correlates with HER2 expression and with a poor prognosis. | Yasutaka Sukawa Hiroyuki Yamamoto Katsuhiko Nosho Hiroaki Kunimoto Hiromu Suzuki Yasushi Adachi Mayumi Nakazawa Takayuki Nobuoka Mariko Kawayama Masashi Mikami Takashi Matsuno Tadashi Hasegawa Koichi Hirata Kohzoh Imai Yasuhisa Shinomura | 2012 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2012,18,45: | 19 |
| 6 | Prognostic roles of preoperative α-fetoprotein and des-γ-carboxy prothrombin in hepatocellular carcinoma patients显示文摘AIM:To clarify the utility of using des-γ-carboxy prothrombin(DCP)andα-fetoprotein(AFP)levels to predict the prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)in patients with hepatitis B virus(HBV)and the hepatitis C virus(HCV)infections.METHODS:A total of 205 patients with HCC(105patients with HBV infection 100 patients with HCV infection)who underwent primary hepatectomy between January 2004 and May 2012 were enrolled retrospectively.Preoperative AFP and DCP levels were used to create interactive dot diagrams to predict recurrence within 2 years after hepatectomy,and cutoff levels were calculated.Patients in the HBV and HCV groups were classified into three groups:a group with low AFP and DCP levels(LL group),a group in which one of the two parameters was high and the other was low(HL group),and a group with high AFP and DCP levels(HH group).Liver function parameters,the postoperative recurrence-free survival rate,and postoperative overall survival were compared between groups.The survival curves were compared by logrank test using the Kaplan-Meier method.Multivariate analysis using a Cox forward stepwise logistic regression model was conducted for a prognosis.RESULTS:The preoperative AFP cutoff levels for recurrence within 2 years after hepatectomy in the HBV and HCV groups were 529.8 ng/m L and 60 m AU/m L,respectively;for preoperative DCP levels,the cutoff levels were 21.0 ng/m L in the HBV group and 67 m AU/m L in the HCV group.The HBV group was significantly different from the other groups in terms of vascular invasion,major hepatectomy,volume of intraoperative blood loss,and surgical duration.Significant differences were found between the LL group,the HL group,and the HH group in terms of both mean disease-free survival time(MDFST)and mean overall survival time(MOST):64.81±7.47 vs 36.63±7.62 vs 18.98±6.17mo(P=0.001)and 85.30±6.55 vs 59.44±7.87 vs46.57±11.20 mo(P=0.018).In contrast,the HCV group exhibited a significant difference in tumor size,vascular invasion,volume of intraoperative blood loss,and surgical duration;however,no significant difference was observed between the three groups in liver function parameters except for albumin levels.In the LL group,the HL group,and the HH group,the MDFST was 50.09±5.90,31.01±7.21,and 14.81±3.08 mo(log-rank test,P<0.001),respectively,and the MOST was 79.45±8.30,58.82±7.56,and 32.87±6.31 mo(log-rank test,P<0.001),respectively.CONCLUSION:In the HBV group,the prognosis was poor when either AFP or DCP levels were high.In the HCV group,the prognosis was good when either or both levels were low;however,the prognosis was poor when both levels were high.High levels of both AFP and DCP were an independent risk factor associated with tumor recurrence in the HBV and HCV groups.The relationship between tumor marker levels and prognosis was characteristic to the type of viral hepatitis. | Makoto Meguro Toru Mizuguchi Toshihiko Nishidate Kenji Okita Masayuki Ishii Shigenori Ota Tomomi Ueki Emi Akizuki Koichi Hirata | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,16: | 16 |
| 7 | Fucoidan enhances intestinal barrier function by upregulating the expression of claudin-1显示文摘AIM:To evaluate the protective effects of fucoidan on oxidative stress-induced barrier disruption in human intestinal epithelial cells.METHODS:In Caco-2 cell monolayer models,the disruption of barrier function by oxidative stress is mediated by H2O2.The integrity of polarized Caco-2 cell monolayers was determined by measuring the transepithelial resistance(TER)and permeability was estimated by measuring the paracellular transport of FITC-labeled4-kDa dextran(FD4).The protective effects of fucoidan on epithelial barrier functions on polarized Caco-2 cell monolayers were evaluated by TER and FD4 flux.The expression of tight junction(TJ)proteins was assessed using reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)and immunofluorescence staining.RESULTS:Without H2O2treatment,fucoidan significantly increased the TER compared to control(P<0.05),indicating a direct enhancement of intestinal epithelial barrier function.Next,H2O2disrupted the epithelial barrier function in a time-dependent manner.Fucoidan prevented the H2O2-induced destruction in a dosedependent manner.Fucoidan significantly decreased H2O2-induced FD4 flux(P<0.01),indicating the prevention of disruption in paracellular permeability.RTPCR showed that Caco-2 cells endogenously expressed claudin-1 and-2,and occludin and that H2O2reduced the mRNA expression of these TJ proteins.Treatment with fucoidan attenuated the reduction in the expressions of claudin-1 and claudin-2 but not occludin.Immunofluorescence staining revealed that the expression of claudin-1 was intact and high on the cell surface.H2O2disrupted the integrity of claudin-1.Treatment with fucoidan dramatically attenuated the expression of claudin-1.CONCLUSION:Fucoidan enhanced intestinal epithelial barrier function by upregulating the expression of claudin-1.Thus,fucoidan may be an appropriate therapy for the treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases. | Atsushi Iraha Hiroshi Chinen Akira Hokama Takumi Yonashiro Tetsu Kinjo Kazuto Kishimoto Manabu Nakamoto Tetsuo Hirata Nagisa Kinjo Futoshi Higa Masao Tateyama Fukunori Kinjo Jiro Fujita | 2013 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2013,19,33: | 15 |
| 8 | Present status of endoscopic mastectomy for breast cancer显示文摘Endoscopy is now being used for breast cancer surgery. Though it is used for mastectomy, lymph node dissection, and breast reconstruction, its prime use is for mastectomy. Because an incision can be placed inconspicuously in the axillary site, a relatively largeincision can be created. A retractor with an endoscope, CO2, and an abrasion device with the endoscope are used for operation space security. It is extremely rare that an endoscope is used for lymph node dissection. For breast reconstruction, it may be used for latissimus muscle flap making, but an endoscope is rarely used for other reconstructions. Endoscopic mastectomy is limited to certain institutions and practiced hands, and it has not been significantly developed in breast cancer surgery. On the other hand, endoscopic surgery may be used widely in breast reconstruction. With respect to the spread of robotic surgery, many factors remain uncertain. | Tetsuhiro Owaki Yuko Kijima Heiji Yoshinaka Munetsugu Hirata Hiroshi Okumura Simiya Ishigami Yasuhito Nerome Toshiro Takezaki Shoji Natsugoe | 2015 | World Journal of Clinical Oncology2015,6,3: | 15 |

| 10 | Recent Advances in Researches on Physiologically Active Substances in Holothurians显示文摘In this report, we reviewed recent literature on physiologically active substances from sea cucumbers (SCs) andtheir activities together with results obtained from our study. Preventive properties against lipid metabolism were reported inrats using a whole SC preparation with no particular constituent specified. Administration of the preparation lowered serumand hepatic cholesterol levels and improved the HDL/LDL ratio. These functions may be attributed to the stimulatory effectof the extract on the secretion of cholesterol in feces. Novel fucosylated chondroitin sulfates (FCSs) from Ludwigothureagrisea significantly induced fibroblast growth factor 2-dependent angiogenesis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HU-VECs). The proangiogenetic activity seemed attributable to the action of the sulfated fucose branches on the polysaccharide.SCs contain mycosporine-like amino acids (MAAs) that are capable of absorbing UV. A biogenetic precursor of MAAs wasfirst reported in SCs. The anti-proliferative effects of a branched chain fatty acid from a sea cucumber on prostate cancercells was reported with the activity of 5-lipoxygenase. Glycosphingolipid constituents in SCs have been systematically ana-lyzed over the past ten years. The results showed that the gangliosides in several SCs differed from those of mammals in thata sialic acid of SC gangliosides directly binded to glucose of cerebroside. Neuritogenic activity of the glycosphingolipids wasdemonstrated in vitro experiments and may lead to the development of therapeutic products for neurological disorders. Ourstudy also showed that sphingoid bases, the hydrolyzed products of glycosphingolipids from SCs, induced significant apoptosisin several tumor cell lines. | Hirata Takashi Zaima Nobuhiro Yamashita Kyoko Noguchi Ryoko XUE Changhu Sugawara Tatsuya | 2005 | Journal of Ocean University of China2005,4,3: | 14 |

| 12 | Serrated polyps of the colon and rectum:Remove or not?显示文摘In recent years,the serrated neoplasia pathway where serrated polyps arise as a colorectal cancer has gained considerable attention as a new carcinogenic pathway.Colorectal serrated polyps are histopathologically classified into hyperplastic polyps(HPs),sessile serrated lesions,and traditional serrated adenomas;in the serrated neoplasia pathway,the latter two are considered to be premalignant.In western countries,all colorectal polyps,including serrated polyps,apart from diminutive rectosigmoid HPs are removed.However,in Asian countries,the treatment strategy for colorectal serrated polyps has remained unestablished.Therefore,in this review,we described the clinicopathological features of colorectal serrated polyps and proposed to remove HPs and sessile serrated lesions≥6 mm in size,and traditional serrated adenomas of any size. | Wataru Sano Daizen Hirata Akira Teramoto Mineo Iwatate Santa Hattori Mikio Fujita Yasushi Sano | 2020 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2020,26,19: | 12 |
| 13 | Propensity score analysis demonstrated the prognostic advantage of anatomical liver resection in hepatocellular carcinoma显示文摘AIM:To compare the prognoses of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)patients that underwent anatomic liver resection(AR)or non-anatomic liver resection(NAR)using propensity score-matched populations.METHODS:Between January 2002 and December2010,268 consecutive HCC patients,including 110 and158 patients that underwent AR and NAR,respectively,were retrospectively enrolled in this study.Forty-four patients from each group were selected and matched using logistic multivariate analysis followed by propensity score analysis.RESULTS:In the whole analysis set,the histological background of the liver,liver function,and tumor marker levels differed significantly among the groups.Although the overall survival(OS)and recurrence-free survival rates of the two groups did not differ significantly in the whole analysis set,the OS of the AR group was significantly longer than that of the NAR group after propensity matching(76.2±6.3 mo vs 58.9±6.3mo;P=0.0039).Although AR(HR=0.456,P=0.039)was found to be a prognostic factor in the univariate analysis,only vascular invasion(HR=0.228,P=0.002)and the hepatocyte growth factor level(HR=52.366,P=0.035)were subsequently found to be independent prognostic factors.CONCLUSION:AR conveys a survival advantage over NAR in specific subpopulations of HCC patients with tumors of less than 5 cm in diameter,single tumor,and good liver function. | Masayuki Ishii Toru Mizuguchi Masaki Kawamoto Makoto Meguro Shigenori Ota Toshihiko Nishidate Kenji Okita Yasutohsi Kimura Thomas T Hui Koichi Hirata | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,12: | 12 |
| 14 | NF-κB and ERK-signaling pathways contribute to the gene expression induced by cag PAI-positive-Helicobacter pylori infection显示文摘AIM: To elucidate the sequential gene expression profile in AGS cells co-cultured with wild-type Hellcobacter pylori (Hpylon) as a model of H pylori-infected gastric epithelium, and to further examine the contribution of cag-pathogenicity islands (cagPAI)-coding type Ⅳ secretion system and the two pathways, nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) and extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK) on wild-type H pylori-induced gene expression. METHODS: Gene expression profiles induced by H pylori were evaluated in AGS gastric epithelial cells using cDNA microarray, which were present in the 4 600 independent clones picked up from the human gastric tissue. We also analyzed the contribution of NF-κB and ERK signaling on H pylori-induced gene expression by using inhibitors of specific signal pathways. The isogenic mutant with disrupted capE (△cagE) was used to elucidate the role of capPAI-encoding type Ⅳ secretion system in the gene expression profile. RESULTS: According to the expression profile, the genes were classified into four clusters. Among them, the clusters characterized by continuous upregulation were most conspicuous, and it contained many signal transducer activity-associated genes. The role of cagPAI on cultured cells was also investigated using isogenic mutant cagE, which carries non-functional cagPAI. Then the upregulation of more than 80% of the induced genes (476/566) was found to depend on cagPAI. Signal transducer pathway through NF-κB or ERK are the major pathways which are known to be activated by cagPAI-positive H pylori. The role of these pathways in the whole signal activation by cagPAI- positive H pylori was analyzed. The specific inhibitors against NF-κB or ERK pathway blocked the activation of gene expression in 65% (367/566) or 76% (429/566) of the genes whose activation appealed to depend on cagPAI. CONCLUSION: These results suggest that more than half of the genes induced by cagPAI-positive H pylori depend on NF-κB and ERK signaling activation, and these pathways may play a role in the gene expression induced by host-bacterial interaction which may associate with H pylori-related gastro-duodenal diseases. | Wataru Shibata Yoshihiro Hirata Haruhiko Yoshida Motoyuki Otsuka Yujin Hoshida Keiji Ogura Shin Maeda Tomoya Ohmae Ayako Yanai Yuzo Mitsuno Naohiko Seki Takao Kawabe Masao Omata | 2005 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2005,11,39: | 12 |
| 15 | Diagnosis of intestinal tuberculosis using a monoclonal antibody to Mycobacterium tuberculosis显示文摘AIM:To investigate the utility of immunohistochemical(IHC) staining with an antibody to Mycobacterium tuberculosis(M.tuberculosis) for the diagnosis of intestinal tuberculosis(TB).METHODS:We retrospectively identified 10 patients(4 males and 6 females;mean age = 65.1 ± 13.6 years) with intestinal TB.Clinical characteristics,including age,gender,underlying disease,and symptoms were obtained.Chest radiograph and laboratory tests,including sputum Ziehl-Neelsen(ZN) staining,M.tuberculosis culture,and sputum polymerase chain reaction(PCR) for tubercle bacilli DNA,as well as Tuberculin skin test(TST) and QuantiFERON-TB gold test(QFT),were examined.Colonoscopic records recorded on the basis of Sato's classification were also reviewed,in addition to data from intestinal biopsies examined for histopathological findings,including hematoxylin and eosin staining,and ZN staining,as well as M.tuberculosis culture,and PCR for tubercle bacilli DNA.For the present study,archived formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded(FFPE) intestinal tissue samples were immunohistochemically stained using a commercially available species-specific monoclonal antibody to the 38-kDa antigen of the M.tuberculosis complex.These sections were also stained with the pan-macrophage marker CD68 antibody.RESULTS:From the clinical data,we found that no patients were immunocompromised,and that the main symptoms were diarrhea and weight loss.Three patients displayed active pulmonary TB,six patients(60%) had a positive TST,and 4 patients(40%) had a positive QFT.Colonoscopic findings revealed that all patients had type 1 findings(linear ulcers in a circumferential arrangement or linear ulcers arranged circumferentially with mucosa showing multiple nodules),all of which were located in the right hemicolon and/or terminal ileum.Seven patients(70%) had concomitant healed lesions in the ileocecal area.No acid-fast bacilli were detected with ZN staining of the intestinal tissue samples,and both M.tuberculosis culture and PCR for tubercle bacilli DNA were negative in all samples.The histopathological data revealed that tuberculous granulomas were present in 4 cases(40%).IHC staining in archived FFPE samples with anti-M.tuberculosis monoclonal antibody revealed positive findings in 4 patients(40%);the same patients in which granulomas were detected by hematoxylin and eosin staining.M.tuberculosis antigens were found to be mostly intracellular,granular in pattern,and primarily located in the CD68 + macrophages of the granulomas.CONCLUSION:IHC staining with a monoclonal antibody to M.tuberculosis may be an efficient and simple diagnostic tool in addition to classic examination methods for the diagnosis of intestinal TB. | Yasushi Ihama Akira Hokama Kenji Hibiya Kazuto Kishimoto Manabu Nakamoto Tetsuo Hirata Nagisa Kinjo Haley L Cash Futoshi Higa Masao Tateyama Fukunori Kinjo Jiro Fujita | 2012 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2012,18,47: | 12 |
| 16 | Vascular endothelial growth factor 165b expression in stromal cells and colorectal cancer显示文摘AIM:To characterize the implications of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)-A in stromal cells and colorectal cancer and the expression of VEGF-A splice variants.METHODS:VEGF-A expression in tumor and stromal cells from 165 consecutive patients with colorectal cancer was examined by immunohistochemistry.The association between VEGF-A expression status and clinicopathological factors was investigated.Twenty freshfrozen samples were obtained for laser capture microdissection to analyze the splice variants of VEGF-A.RESULTS:VEGF-A was expressed in 53.9% and 42.4% of tumor and stromal cells,respectively.VEGF-A expression in tumor cells(t-VEGF-A) was associated with advanced clinical stage(stage 0,1/9;stage 1,2/16;stage 2,32/55;stage 3,38/66;stage 4,16/19,P < 0.0001).VEGF-A expression in stromal cells(s-VEGF-A) increased in the earlier clinical stage(stage 0,7/9;stage 1,6/16;stage 2,33/55;stage 3,22/66;stage 4,5/19;P = 0.004).Multivariate analyses for risk factors of recurrence showed that only s-VEGF-A expression was an independent risk factor for recurrence(relative risk 0.309,95% confidence interval 0.141-0.676,P = 0.0033).The five-year disease-free survival(DFS) rates of t-VEGF-A-positive and-negative cases were 51.4% and 62.9%,respectively.There was no significant difference in t-VEGF-A expression status.The five-year DFS rates of s-VEGF-A-positive and-negative cases were 73.8% and 39.9%,respectively.s-VEGFA-positive cases had significantly better survival than s-VEGF-A-negative cases(P = 0.0005).Splice variant analysis revealed that t-VEGF-A was mainly composed of VEGF165 and that s-VEGF-A included both VEGF165 and VEGF165b.In cases with no venous invasion(v0),the level of VEGF165b mRNA was significantly higher(v0 204.5 ± 122.7,v1 32.5 ± 36.7,v2 2.1 ± 1.7,P = 0.03).The microvessel density tended to be lower in cases with higher VEGF165b mRNA levels.CONCLUSION:s-VEGF-A appears be a good prognostic factor for colorectal cancer and includes VEGF165 and VEGF165b. | Makoto Tayama Tomohisa Furuhata Yoshiko Inafuku Kenji Okita Toshihiko Nishidate Toru Mizuguchi Yasutoshi Kimura Koichi Hirata | 2011 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2011,17,44: | 10 |
| 17 | Endoscopic and radiographic features of gastrointestinal involvement in vasculitis显示文摘Vasculitis is an inflammation of vessel walls,followed by alteration of the blood flow and damage to the dependent organ.Vasculitis can cause local or diffuse pathologic changes in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract.The variety of GI lesions includes ulcer,submucosal edema,hemorrhage,paralytic ileus,mesenteric ischemia,bowel obstruction,and life-threatening perforation.The endoscopic and radiographic features of GI involvement in vasculitisare reviewed with the emphasis on small-vessel vasculitis by presenting our typicalcases,including Churg-Strauss syndrome,HenochSch nlein purpura,systemic lupus erythematosus,and Beh et's disease.Important endoscopic features are ischemic enterocolitis and ulcer.Characteristic computed tomographic findings include bowel wall thickening with the target sign and engorgement of mesenteric vessels with comb sign.Knowledge of endoscopic and radiographic GI manifestations can help make an early diagnosis and establish treatment strategy. | Akira Hokama Kazuto Kishimoto Yasushi Ihama Chiharu Kobashigawa Manabu Nakamoto Tetsuo Hirata Nagisa Kinjo Futoshi Higa Masao Tateyama Fukunori Kinjo Kunitoshi Iseki Seiya Kato Jiro Fujita | 2012 | World Journal of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy2012,4,3: | 9 |
| 18 | Different natural courses of chronic hepatitis B with genotypes B and C after the fourth decade of life显示文摘AIM: To investigate the different impact of genotypes B and C on the development of liver cirrhosis (LC) among different age groups of patients with chronic hepatitis B (CH-B). METHODS: We examined the outcome of 121 patients with CH-B, divided by age and genotype. Univariate analyses were used to compare different groups. The Cox proportional hazard model was employed to evaluate factors affecting the development of LC. RESULTS: In patients < 30 years old, there were no significant predictors for development of LC. However, in patients ≥ 30 years old, genotype C was the only significant predictor. In the genotype C group, 8 of 12 patients who progressed to LC were 30-49 years old at initial diagnosis of chronic hepatitis (7 patients were positive for HBeAg). In the genotype B group, 4 of 8 patients who developed LC were ≥ 50 years old at initial diagnosis and were HBeAg-negative. CONCLUSION: The rate of development of LC was comparable in patients infected with genotypes B and C when CH-B occurred at < 30 years old. However, CH-B patients infected with genotype C showed poor prognosis if they were 30-49 years old and were positive for HBeAg. Age-specific natural course of CH-B should be considered when patients with CH-B are treated with antiviral drugs. | Tatsuji Maeshiro Shingo Arakaki Takako Watanabe Hajime Aoyama Joji Shiroma Tsuyoshi Yamashiro Tetsuo Hirata Akira Hokama Fukunori Kinjo Tomofumi Nakayoshi Tomokuni Nakayoshi Masashi Mizokami Jiro Fujita Hiroshi Sakugawa | 2007 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2007,13,34: | 7 |

| 20 | Gastric adenocarcinoma of fundic gland type spreading to heterotopic gastric glands显示文摘Herein, we present a case of gastric adenocarcinoma of fundic gland type(GA-FG) spreading to heterotopic gastric glands(HGG) in the submucosa. A 58-year-old man with epigastric pain was referred to our hospital and underwent an esophagogastroduodenoscopy. A Borrmann type II gastric cancer at the antrum and a 10 mm submucosal tumor-like lesion in the lesser curvature of the upper third of the stomach were detected. Histological examination of the biopsy specimens obtained from the submucosal tumorlike lesion suggested a GA-FG. Therefore, endoscopic submucosal dissection was performed as excisional biopsy, and histopathological examination of the resected specimen confirmed a GA-FG and HGG proximal to the GA-FG. Although the GA-FG invaded the submucosal layer slightly, the submucosal lesion of the GA-FG had a poor stromal reaction and was located just above the HGG in the submucosa. Therefore, wefinally diagnosed the lesion as a GA-FG invading the submucosal layer by spreading to HGG. | Shigeo Manabe Ken-ichi Mukaisho Takayuki Yasuoka Fumitaka Usui Tatsuzo Matsuyama Ikuhiro Hirata Yoshio Boku Shuji Takahashi | 2017 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2017,23,38: | 6 |
