Joji Kato,Yoshiyuki Kuwabara,Masami Mitani,Noriyuki Shinoda,Atsushi Sato,Tatsuya Toyama,Akira Mitsui,Tadashi Nishiwaki,Satoru Moriyama,Junzo Kudo,Yoshitaka Fujii +10 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that survivin expression may provide prognostic information in patients with esophageal cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
RNASEN regulates cell proliferation and affects survival in esophageal cancer patients
Nobuyoshi Sugito,Hideyuki Ishiguro,Yoshiyuki Kuwabara,Masahiro Kimura,Akira Mitsui,Hiroki Kurehara,Takuya Ando,Ryota Mori,Nobuhiro Takashima,Ryo Ogawa,Yoshitaka Fujii +10 more
TL;DR: The relationship between the RNASEN expression and the prognosis of the ESCC patients warrants a further study on the role of miRNA and tumor progression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression profiling of micro-RNAs in human esophageal squamous cell carcinoma using RT-PCR
Ryo Ogawa,Hideyuki Ishiguro,Yoshiyuki Kuwabara,Masahiro Kimura,Akira Mitsui,Takeyasu Katada,Koshiro Harata,Tatsuya Tanaka,Yoshitaka Fujii +8 more
TL;DR: The notion that the high miR-129 expression levels, as observed in this study, might play a important role in the development of esophageal cancer is supported.
Journal ArticleDOI
The overexpression of caveolin-1 and caveolin-2 correlates with a poor prognosis and tumor progression in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
Takuya Ando,Hideyuki Ishiguro,Masahiro Kimura,Akira Mitsui,Yoichiro Mori,Nobuyoshi Sugito,Keisuke Tomoda,Ryota Mori,Koshiro Harada,Takeyasu Katada,Ryo Ogawa,Yoshitaka Fujii,Yoshiyuki Kuwabara +12 more
TL;DR: Positive staining for CAV1 and CAV2 could be a potentially useful prognostic marker of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, and a significant correlation was observed between CAV 1 andCAV2 immunostaining and T factor, lymphatic invasion, vein invasion and differentiation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vascular endothelial growth factor C (VEGF-C) in esophageal cancer correlates with lymph node metastasis and poor patient prognosis
Tatsuya Tanaka,Hideyuki Ishiguro,Yoshiyuki Kuwabara,Masahiro Kimura,Akira Mitsui,Takeyasu Katada,Midori Shiozaki,Yasuhiro Naganawa,Yoshitaka Fujii,Hiromitsu Takeyama +9 more
TL;DR: The expression of VEGF-C correlates with lymph node metastasis and poor prognosis and may be a good diagnostic factor for determining metastasis of the lymph node in patients with Tis and T1 esophageal tumors.
