Journal ArticleDOI
Toll-like receptor 4 mediates ischemia/reperfusion injury of the heart.
Albert J. Chong,Akira Shimamoto,Craig R. Hampton,Hiroo Takayama,Denise J. Spring,Christine L. Rothnie,Masaki Yada,Timothy H. Pohlman,Edward D. Verrier +8 more
TL;DR: Inhibition of toll-like receptor 4 activation may be a potential therapeutic target to attenuate ischemia/reperfusion-induced tissue damage in the clinical setting.
Journal ArticleDOI
HSP70.1 and -70.3 are required for late-phase protection induced by ischemic preconditioning of mouse hearts
Craig R. Hampton,Akira Shimamoto,Christine L. Rothnie,Jeaneatte Griscavage-Ennis,Albert J. Chong,David J. Dix,Edward D. Verrier,Timothy H. Pohlman +7 more
TL;DR: Investigation of the role of inducible heat shock proteins 70.1 and HSP70.3 in myocardial ischemic preconditioning in mice concluded that they are required for late-phase protection against infarction following IP in mice.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhancement of mechanical strength by shape memory effect in TiNi fiber-reinforced composites
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a new design concept that improves the material strength by using SMA to actively control material strength using photoelastic fringe patterns and the behavior of K-value at the crack tip.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultrafiltration of the priming blood before cardiopulmonary bypass attenuates inflammatory response and improves postoperative clinical course in pediatric patients.
Hideto Shimpo,Akira Shimamoto,Yutaka Sawamura,Kazuya Fujinaga,Shinji Kanemitsu,Koji Onoda,Motoshi Takao,Yoshihide Mitani,Isao Yada +8 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that removal of bradykinin and a decrease in the levels of NH3, potassium, and pH play a significant role in reducing water retention and postoperative lung injury.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fatigue crack propagation and local crack-tip strain behavior in TiNi shape memory fiber reinforced composite
Akira Shimamoto,H.Y Zhao,H Abé +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of prestrain in TiNi fiber on fatigue crack development and suppression in the local domain region around the embedded TiNi fibers were investigated in detail.
