| 1 | Association of Fusobacterium nucleatum with immunity andmolecular alterations in colorectal cancer显示文摘The human intestinal microbiome plays a major role in human health and diseases, including colorectal cancer. Colorectal carcinogenesis represents a heterogeneous process with a differing set of somatic molecular alterations, influenced by diet, environmental and microbial exposures, and host immunity. Fusobacterium species are part of the human oral and intestinal microbiota. Metagenomic analyses have shown an enrichment of Fusobacterium nucleatum(F. nucleatum) in colorectal carcinoma tissue. Using 511 colorectal carcinomas from Japanese patients, we assessed the presence of F. nucleatum. Our results showed that the frequency of F. nucleatum positivity in the Japanese colorectal cancer was 8.6%(44/511), which was lower than that in United States cohort studies(13%). Similar to the United States studies, F. nucleatum positivityin Japanese colorectal cancers was significantly associated with microsatellite instability(MSI)-high status. Regarding the immune response in colorectal cancer, high levels of infiltrating T-cell subsets(i.e., CD3+, CD8+, CD45RO+, and FOXP3+ cells) have been associated with better patient prognosis. There is also evidence to indicate that molecular features of colorectal cancer, especially MSI, influence T-cell-mediated adaptive immunity. Concerning the association between the gut microbiome and immunity, F. nucleatum has been shown to expand myeloid-derived immune cells, which inhibit T-cell proliferation and induce T-cell apoptosis in colorectal cancer. This finding indicates that F. nucleatum possesses immunosuppressive activities by inhibiting human T-cell responses. Certain micro RNAs are induced during the macrophage inflammatory response and have the ability to regulate host-cell responses to pathogens. Micro RNA-21 increases the levels of IL-10 and prostaglandin E2, which suppress antitumor T-cell-mediated adaptive immunity through the inhibition of the antigen-presenting capacities of dendritic cells and T-cell proliferation in colorectal cancer cells. Thus, emerging evidence may provide insights for strategies to target microbiota, immune cells and tumor molecular alterations for colorectal cancer prevention and treatment. Further investigation is needed to clarify the association of Fusobacterium with T-cells and micro RNA expressions in colorectal cancer. | Katsuhiko Nosho Yasutaka Sukawa Yasushi Adachi Miki Ito Kei Mitsuhashi Hiroyoshi Kurihara Shinichi Kanno Itaru Yamamoto Keisuke Ishigami Hisayoshi Igarashi Reo Maruyama Kohzoh Imai Hiroyuki Yamamoto Yasuhisa Shinomura | 2016 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2016,22,2: | 44 |

| 3 | Hybrid Rubisco with Complete Replacement of Rice Rubisco Small Subunits by Sorghum Counterparts Confers C4 Plant-like High Catalytic Activity显示文摘Photosynthetic rate at the present atmospheric condition is limited by the CO2-fixing enzyme ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase(Rubisco)because of its extremely low catalytic rate(kcat)and poor affinity for C02(Kc)and specificity for CO2(Sc/O).Rubisco in C4 plants generally shows higher k cat than that in C3 plants.Rubisco consists of eight large subunits and eight small subunits(RbcS).Previously,the chimeric incorporation of sorghum C4-type RbcS significantly increased the k cat of Rubisco in a C3 plant,rice.In this study,we knocked out rice RbcS multigene family using the CRISPR-Cas9 technology and completely replaced rice RbcS with sorghum RbcS in rice Rubisco.Obtained hybrid Rubisco showed almost C4 plant-like catalytic properties,i.e.,higher kcai,higher Kc,and lower Sc/O.Transgenic lines expressing the hybrid Rubisco accumulated reduced levels of Rubisco,whereas they showed slightly but significantly higher photosynthetic capacity and similar biomass production under high C 02 condition compared with wild-type rice.High-resolution crystal structural analysis of the wild-type Rubisco and hybrid Rubisco revealed the structural differences around the central pore of Rubisco and the pC-pD hairpin in RbcS.We propose that such differences,particularly in the pC-pD hairpin,may impact the flexibility of Rubisco catalytic site and change its catalytic properties. | Hiroyoshi Matsumura Keita Shiomi Akito Yamamoto Yuri Taketani Noriyuki Kobayashi Takuya Yoshizawa Shun-ichi Tanaka Hiroki Yoshikawa Masaki Endo Hiroshi Fukayama | 2020 | Molecular Plant2020,13,11: | 8 |
| 4 | Pegylated interferon plus ribavirin for genotype Ib chronic hepatitis C in Japan显示文摘AIM:To evaluate the efficacy of pegylated interferon α-2b(peg-IFNα-2b) plus ribavirin(RBV) therapy in Japanese patients with chronic hepatitis C(CHC) genotype Ib and a high viral load.METHODS:One hundred and twenty CHC patients(58.3% male) who received peg-IFNα-2b plus RBV therapy for 48 wk were enrolled.Sustained virological response(SVR) and clinical parameters were evaluated.RESULTS:One hundred(83.3%) of 120 patients completed 48 wk of treatment.53 patients(44.3%) achieved SVR.Early virological response(EVR) and end of treatment response(ETR) rates were 50% and 73.3%,respectively.The clinical parameters(SVR vs non-SVR) associated with SVR,ALT(108.4 IU/L vs 74.5 IU/L,P = 0.063),EVR(76.4% vs 16.4%,P < 0.0001),adherence to peg-IFN(≥ 80% of planned dose) at week 12(48.1% vs 13.6%,P = 0.00036),adherence to peg-IFN at week 48(54.7% vs 16.2%,P < 0.0001) and adherence to RBV at week 48(56.1% vs 32.1%,P = 0.0102) were determined using univariate analysis,and EVR and adherence to peg-IFN at week 48 were determined using multivariate analysis.In the older patient group(> 56 years),SVR in females was significantly lower than that in males(17% vs 50%,P = 0.0262).EVR and adherence to Peg-IFN were demonstrated to be the main factors associated with SVR.CONCLUSION:Peg-IFNα-2b plus RBV combination therapy demonstrated good tolerability in Japanese patients with CHC and resulted in a SVR rate of 44.3%.Treatment of elderly female patients is still challenging and maintenance of adherence to peg-IFNα-2b is important in improving the SVR rate. | Takayuki Kogure Yoshiyuki Ueno Koji Fukushima Futoshi Nagasaki Yasuteru Kondo Jun Inoue Yasunori Matsuda Eiji Kakazu Takeshi Yamamoto Hiroyoshi Onodera Yutaka Miyazaki Hiromasa Okamoto Takehiro Akahane Tomoo Kobayashi Yutaka Mano Takao Iwasaki Motoyasu Ishii Tooru Shimosegawa | 2008 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2008,14,47: | 7 |
| 5 | Recent traction methods for endoscopic submucosal dissection显示文摘Endoscopic mucosal resection(EMR) is problematic with regard to en bloc and curable resection rates.Advancements in endoscopic techniques have enabled novel endoscopic approaches such as endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD), which has overcome some EMR problems, and has become the standard treatment for gastrointestinal tumors. However, ESD is technically difficult. Procedure time is longer and complications such as intraoperative perforation and bleeding occur more frequently than in EMR. Recently various traction methods have been introduced to facilitate ESD procedures, such as clip with line, external forceps, clip and snare, internal traction, double scope, and magnetic anchor. Each method must be used appropriately according to the anatomical characteristics. In this review we discuss recently proposed traction methods for ESD based on the characteristics of various anatomical sites. | Kunihiro Tsuji Naohiro Yoshida Hiroyoshi Nakanishi Kenichi Takemura Shinya Yamada Hisashi Doyama | 2016 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2016,22,26: | 6 |
| 6 | 人工全膝关节中多孔钽金属型和骨水泥型胫骨假体周围骨矿物质密度比较显示文摘背景:多孔钽金属近年来用作全膝关节置换的金属植入材料。其多孔性、低弹性模量和高摩擦性能可保证良好的生理负荷传导并保留假体周围的骨储备。但就我们所知,这种小梁金属(TrabecularMetal)胫骨假体对周围骨矿物质密度的影响未见文献报道。本文的目的是对使用非骨水泥的小梁金属胫骨假体和骨水泥型胫骨假体关节周围骨矿物质密度进行比较。方法:对使用小梁金属胫骨假体和使用骨水泥固定的钴铬钼合金胫骨假体各28个膝分别在术前2周、术后2周、术后6、12、18和24个月进行双能x线吸收光谱扫描,以评价假体周围骨矿物质密度。所有手术均由一名医师操作并采用髌旁内侧入路。结果:术前两组股骨颈、腕关节、腰椎椎体或膝关节的骨密度均无明显差异。术后两组的胫骨骨密度均下降。但术后24个月的胫骨侧位x线片显示小梁金属胫骨假体周围的骨密度减低明显小于骨水泥型胫骨假体组(平均值±标准差,-6.7%±22.9%与-36.8%+24.2%;p=0.002)。两组患者的膝关节学会(Knee Society)评分、膝关节活动度和腰椎椎体骨密度在术后24个月无明显差异。假体微动和假体周围骨折在两组膝关节中均未见到。结论:全膝关节置换术使用小梁金属胫骨假体的胫骨外侧平台的骨密度降低小于使用骨水泥型胫骨假体的膝关节。确定多孔钽金属胫骨假体用于全膝关节置换的长期临床疗效尚待进一步研究。 | Yukihide Minoda Akio Kobayashi Hiroyoshi Iwaki Mitsuhiko Ikebuchi Fumiaki Inori Kunio Takaoka 赵建宁(译) 包倪荣(译) | 2010 | 中华骨科杂志2010,30,6: | 4 |
| 7 | Helicobacter heilmannii sensu stricto-related gastric ulcers:A case report显示文摘A spiral bacterium(SH9),morphologically different from Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori),was found in a 62-yearold woman’s gastric mucosa.Gastroscopic examination revealed multiple gastric ulcers near the pyloric ring;mapping gastric biopsy showed mild mononuclear infiltration with large lymphoid follicles in the antrum,without corpus atrophy.Urea breath test and H.pylori culture were negative,but Giemsa staining of biopsies revealed tightly coiled bacteria that immunostained with anti-H.pylori antibody.Sequencing of SH9 16S rRNA and the partial urease A and B subunit genes showed that the former sequence had highest similarity(99%;1302/1315 bp)to Helicobacter heilmannii(H.heilmannii)sensu stricto(H.heilmannii s.s.)BC1 obtained from a bobcat,while the latter sequence confirmed highest similarity(98.3%;1467/1493 bp)to H.heilmannii s.s.HU2 obtained from a human.The patient was diagnosed with multiple gastric ulcers associated with H.heilmannii s.s.infection.After triple therapy(amoxicillin,clarithromycin,and lansoprazole)with regimen for eradicating H.pylori,gastroscopy showed ulcer improvement and no H.heilmannii s.s.upon biopsy. | Takehisa Matsumoto Masatomo Kawakubo Taiji Akamatsu Naohiko Koide Naoko Ogiwara Seiko Kubota Mitsutoshi Sugano Yoshiyuki Kawakami Tsutomu Katsuyama Hiroyoshi Ota | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,12: | 4 |
| 8 | Pulmonary artery sarcoma successfully treated by right pneumonectomy after definitive diagnosis显示文摘Pulmonary artery sarcoma(PAS)is a rare and lethal neoplasm that is usually diagnosed during surgery or autopsy.Early diagnosis and radical surgical resection offer the only chance for survival.However,making a preoperative histopathological diagnosis is quite difficult.We encountered a 57-year-old woman presenting a PAS that mimicked a pulmonary thromboembolism.After confirming a definitive diagnosis using a catheter suction biopsy,we successfully performed a right pneumonectomy via a median sternotomy without cardiopulmonary bypass.Eighteen months after surgery,no recurrence was observed. | Ryuta Fukai Kyu Rokkaku Yoshihito Irie Takao Imazeki Yoshiaki Katada Hiroyoshi Watanabe Yoshihiko Ueda Hideaki Miyamoto Masayuki Chida | 2013 | World Journal of Clinical Oncology2013,4,4: | 4 |

| 11 | Cyberknife treatment for advanced or terminal stage hepatocellular carcinoma显示文摘AIM: To investigate the safety and efficacy of the Cyberknife treatment for patients with advanced or terminal stage hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).METHODS: Patients with HCC with extrahepatic metastasis or vascular or bile duct invasion were enrolled between May 2011 and June 2015. The Cyberknife was used to treat each lesion. Treatment response scores were based on Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors v1.1. The trends of tumor markers,including alpha fetoprotein(AFP) and proteins induced by vitamin K absence Ⅱ(PIVKA Ⅱ) were assessed. Prognostic factors for tumor response and tumor markers were evaluated with Fisher's exact test and a logistic regression model. Survival was evaluated with the Kaplan-Meier method and multivariate analysis was performed using the Cox proportional hazards model.RESULTS: Sixty-five patients with 95 lesions were enrolled. Based on the Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer classification,all patients were either in the advanced or terminal stage of the disease. The target lesions were as follows: 52 were bone metastasis; 9,lung metastasis; 7,brain metastasis; 9,portal vein invasion;4,hepatic vein invasion; 4,bile duct invasion; and 10 other lesion types. The response rate and disease control rate were 34% and 53%,respectively. None of the clinical factors correlated significantly with tumor response. Fiducial marker implantation was associated with better control of both AFP(HR = 0.152; 95%CI: 0.026-0.887; P = 0.036) and PIVKA Ⅱ(HR = 0.035; 95%CI: 0.003-0.342; P = 0.004). The median survival time was 9 mo(95%CI: 5-15 mo). Terminal stage disease(HR = 9.809; 95%CI: 2.589-37.17,P < 0.001) and an AFP of more than 400 ng/m L(HR = 2.548; 95%CI: 1.070-6.068,P = 0.035) were associated with worse survival. A radiation dose higher than 30 Gy(HR = 0.274; 95%CI: 0.093-0.7541,P = 0.012) was associated with better survival. In the 52 cases of bone metastasis,36 patients(69%) achieved pain relief. One patient had cerebral bleeding and another patient had an esophageal ulcer after treatment.CONCLUSION: The Cyberknife can be safely administered to patients with advanced or terminal stage HCC. High AFP levels were associated with worse survival,but a higher radiation dose improved the survival. | Hiroyuki Kato Hideo Yoshida Hiroyoshi Taniguch Ryutaro Nomura Kengo Sato Ichiro Suzuki Ryo Nakata | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,46: | 3 |

| 13 | Role of androgen receptor in prostate cancer显示文摘The growth of prostate cancer is sensitive to androgen, and hormonal therapy has been used for treatment of ad-vanced cancer. About 80 % of prostate cancers initially respond to hormonal therapy, howcrver, more than half of the re-sponders gradtmlly become resistant to this therapy. Changes in tumors from an androgen-responsive to an androgen-unre-sponsive state have been widely discussed. Since androgen action is mediated by androgen receptor (AR), abnonnalitiesof AR is believed to play an important role of the loss of androgen responsiveness in prostate cancer. 'Ilais article focusedon the role of AR in the progression of prostate cancer. | Hiroyoshi Suzuki Haruo Ito | 1999 | Asian Journal of Andrology1999,1,3: | 3 |
| 14 | Effectiveness of clip-and-snare method using pre-looping technique for gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection显示文摘AIM:To evaluate efficacy and safety of clip-and-snare method using pre-looping technique(CSM-PLT)for gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD).METHODS:In the CSM-PLT method,a clip attached to the lesion side was strangulated with a snare,followed by application of an appropriate tension to the lesion independent of an endoscope.Twenty consecutive lesions were resected by ESD using CSM-PLT(CSM-PLT group)and compared with a control group,including20 lesions that were resected by conventional ESD.The control group was matched based on the size and location of the lesion,presence of pathologic fibrosis,and experience of endoscopists.Total procedure time of ESD,proportion of en bloc resection,and complications were analyzed.RESULTS:The total procedure time for the CSM-PLT group was significantly shorter than that for the control group(38.5 min vs 59.5 min,P=0.023);all lesions were resected en bloc by ESD.There was no significant difference in complications between the two groups.Moreover,there was no complication in the CSM-PLT group.In one large lesion(size:74 mm)that underwentextensive CSM-PLT during ESD,we used an additional CSM-PLT on another edge of the lesion after achieving submucosal resection to the maximum extent possible during initial CSM-PLT.In two lesions,the snare came off the lesion together with the clip after a sudden pull;nevertheless,ESD was successful in all lesions.CONCLUSION:CSM-PLT was an effective and safe method for gastric ESD. | Naohiro Yoshida Hisashi Doyama Ryosuke Ota Yasuhito Takeda Hiroyoshi Nakanishi Kei Tominaga Shigetsugu Tsuji Kenichi Takemura | 2016 | World Journal of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy2016,8,12: | 3 |
| 15 | Medial tibial plateau morphology and stress fracture location:A magnetic resonance imaging study显示文摘AIM To determine the location of medial tibial plateau stress fractures and its relationship with tibial plateau morphology using magnetic resonance imaging(MRI).METHODS A retrospective review of patients with a diagnosis of stress fracture of the medial tibial plateau was performed for a 5-year period. Fourteen patients [three female and 11 male, with an average age of 36.4 years(range, 15-50 years)], who underwent knee MRI, were included. The appearance of the tibial plateau stress fracture and the geometry of the tibial plateau were reviewed and measured on MRI.RESULTS Thirteen of 14 stress fractures were linear, and one of them stellated on MRI images. The location of fractures was classified into three types. Three fractures were located anteromedially(AM type), six posteromedially(PM type), and five posteriorly(P type) at the medial tibial plateau. In addition, tibial posterior slope at the medial tibial plateau tended to be larger when the fracture was located more posteriorly on MRI.CONCLUSION We found that MRI showed three different localizations of medial tibial plateau stress fractures, which were associated with tibial posterior slope at the medial tibial plateau. | Kiminori Yukata Issei Yamanaka Yuzuru Ueda Sho Nakai Hiroyoshi Ogasa Yosuke Oishi Jun-ichi Hamawaki | 2017 | World Journal of Orthopedics2017,8,6: | 2 |
| 16 | Mucosal-associated invariant T cells from induced pluripotent stem cells:A novel approach for modeling human diseases显示文摘Mice have frequently been used to model human diseases involving immune dysregulation such as autoimmune and inflammatory diseases.These models help elucidatethe mechanisms underlying the disease and in the development of novel therapies.However,if mice are deficient in certain cells and/or effectors associated with human diseases,how can their functions be investigated in this species?Mucosal-associated invariant T(MAIT)cells,a novel innate-like T cell family member,are a good example.MAIT cells are abundant in humans but scarce in laboratory mice.MAIT cells harbor an invariant T cell receptor and recognize nonpeptidic antigens vitamin B2metabolites from bacteria and yeasts.Recent studies have shown that MAIT cells play a pivotal role in human diseases such as bacterial infections and autoimmune and inflammatory diseases.MAIT cells possess granulysin,a human-specific effector molecule,but granulysin and its homologue are absent in mice.Furthermore,MAIT cells show poor proliferation in vitro.To overcome these problems and further our knowledge of MAIT cells,we have established a method to expand MAIT cells via induced pluripotent stem cells(iP SCs).In this review,we describe recent advances in the field of MAIT cell research and our approach for human disease modeling with iP SCderived MAIT cells. | Chie Sugimoto Hiroyoshi Fujita Hiroshi Wakao | 2016 | World Journal of Stem Cells2016,8,4: | 2 |

| 18 | Hepatic gene expression profiles associated with fibrosis progression and hepatocarcinogenesis in hepatitis C patients显示文摘AIM: To determine fibrosis progression and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), using simultaneous gene expression analysis.METHODS: Total RNA samples were extracted from liver biopsies from 19 patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV)infection and 3 patients without HCV infection. Among the 19 HCV-infected patients, 7 and 12 patients had grade F1-2 and F3-4 fibrosis, respectively. Of the 12 patients with F3-4 fibrosis, 8 had HCC. Gene expression in the liver samples was determined using an oligonucleotide microarray. The following comparisons were performed:normal livers vs HCV-infected livers; F1-2 vs F3-4; and F3-4 with HCC vs F3-4 without HCC. Genes that were differentially expressed between these groups were identified based on signal-to-noise ratios.RESULTS: In the HCV-infected livers, genes involved in immune responses were highly expressed. Expression levels of genes for plasma proteins and drug-metabolizing enzymes were decreased and those of genes involved in the cell cycle and oncogenesis were increased in the F3-4 cases as compared to the F1-2 cases. Among the F3-4 cases, genes involved in carbohydrate metabolism tended to be more highly expressed in patients with HCC than in patients without HCC.CONCLUSION: We identified genes that are associated with fibrosis progression and hepatocarcinogenesis. This information may be used to detect increased carcinogenic potential in the livers of patients with HCV infection. | Yujin Hoshida Motoyuki Otsuka Naoya Kato Ryosuke Tateishi Takuma Teratani Shuichiro Shiina Hiroyoshi Taniguchi Masaru Moriyama Takao Kawabe Masao Omata | 2005 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2005,11,13: | 2 |
| 19 | Angiosarcoma of the scalp diagnosed by the presence of neck inflammation:a case report显示文摘Angiosarcoma is an uncommon malignancy,which spread out from the endothelial cells of vessels.Scalp angiosarcoma with cervical lymph node metastasis is particularly rare.This article describes a rare case of angiosarcoma of the scalp,presenting as neck inflammation.Imaging procedures such as computed tomography(CT),magnetic resonance image(MRI) and ultrasonography(US) were not sufficient to diagnose this case.A needle biopsy provided an effective and accurate diagnosis of cervical lymph node metastasis.Additional observation and physical examination was required to diagnose the origin of the primary cancerous lesion.Once the angiosarcoma diagnosis was confirmed histologically,sequential weekly and monthly docetaxel(DTX) treatment was effective in preventing reoccurrence.Nonetheless,the optimization of angiosarcoma treatment remains a future goal.Although patients generally describe pain and swelling at the primary lesion site,this patient complained only of painful neck inflammation,without any indication of pain or swelling of the scalp.A revised diagnostic protocol should note that cervical lymph node metastasis of unknown primary origin may result from angiosarcoma of the scalp. | Rei Karube Hiroyoshi Sasaki Keiji Shinozuka Yasuhiro Fujisawa Toru Yanagawa Kenji Yamagata Kojiro Onizawa Fujio Otsuka Hiroki Bukawa | 2012 | International Journal of Oral Science2012,4,3: | 2 |
