Journal ArticleDOI
Peroxidase-labeled antibody. A new method of conjugation
Paul K. Nakane,Akira Kawaoi +1 more
TL;DR: A new method of conjugating horseradish peroxidase with proteins was developed by oxidizing the carbohydrate moiety with sodium periodate and bound to free amino groups of proteins unidirectionally at high efficiencies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Autoregulation of thyroid-specific gene transcription by thyroglobulin
Koichi Suzuki,Stefano Lavaroni,Atsumi Mori,Masanori Ohta,Jun Saito,Michele Pietrarelli,Dinah S. Singer,Shioko Kimura,Ryohei Katoh,Akira Kawaoi,Leonard D. Kohn +10 more
TL;DR: It is hypothesized that TG-initiated, transcriptional regulation of thyroid-restricted genes is a normal, feedback, compensatory mechanism that limits follicular function and contributes to follicular heterogeneity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression of thyroid transcription factor-1 in normal and neoplastic lung tissues.
TL;DR: The results suggest that thyroid transcription factor-1 can play an important role for the maintenance and/or differentiation process in bronchiolar and alveolar cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Growth activity in hyperplastic and neoplastic human thyroid determined by an immunohistochemical staining procedure using monoclonal antibody MIB-1
Ryohei Katoh,Carolina E Bray,Koichi Suzuki,Akira Komiyama,Akihiro Hemmi,Akira Kawaoi,Tetsunari Oyama,Tamotsu Sugai,Shunichi Sasou +8 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest that immunohistochemical investigation using the antibody MIB-1 contributes to the understanding of growth characteristics and biological activities in thyroid diseases.
Journal Article
Expression of Thyroid Transcription Factor-1(TTF-1)in Human C Cells and Medullary Thyroid Carcinomas
Ryohei Katoh,Eri Miyagi,Nobuki Nakamura,Xin Li,Koichi Suzuki,Kenichi Kakudo,Makio Kobayashi,Akira Kawaoi +7 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that human thyroid C cells and MTC cells express TTF-1 in connection with their functional ability and can be a functional marker not only for follicular cells and follicular cell tumors but also forC cells and medullary C cell carcinomas.
