Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic variants at the 9p21 locus contribute to atherosclerosis through modulation of ANRIL and CDKN2A/B.
Ada Congrains,Kei Kamide,Ryousuke Oguro,Osamu Yasuda,Keishi Miyata,Eiichiro Yamamoto,Tatsuo Kawai,Hiroshi Kusunoki,Hiroko Yamamoto,Yasushi Takeya,Koichi Yamamoto,Miyuki Onishi,Ken Sugimoto,Tomohiro Katsuya,Nobuhisa Awata,Kazunori Ikebe,Yasuyuki Gondo,Yuichi Oike,Mitsuru Ohishi,Hiromi Rakugi +19 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that several CVD-associated SNPs in the 9p21 locus affect the expression of ANRIL, which, in turn modulate cell growth, possibly via CDKN2A/B regulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor, sitagliptin, improves endothelial dysfunction in association with its anti-inflammatory effects in patients with coronary artery disease and uncontrolled diabetes.
Junichi Matsubara,Seigo Sugiyama,Eiichi Akiyama,Satomi Iwashita,Hirofumi Kurokawa,Keisuke Ohba,Hirofumi Maeda,Koichiro Fujisue,Eiichiro Yamamoto,Koichi Kaikita,Seiji Hokimoto,Hideaki Jinnouchi,Hisao Ogawa +12 more
TL;DR: Sitagliptin significantly improved endothelial function and inflammatory state in patients with CAD and uncontrolled DM, beyond its hypoglycemic action, suggesting that sitagli leptin has beneficial effects on the cardiovascular system in DM patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Critical Role of Angiotensin II in Excess Salt-Induced Brain Oxidative Stress of Stroke-Prone Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats
Shokei Kim-Mitsuyama,Eiichiro Yamamoto,Tomoko Tanaka,Yumei Zhan,Yasukatsu Izumi,Yasuhiro Izumiya,Takeshi Ioroi,Hideki Wanibuchi,Hiroshi Iwao +8 more
TL;DR: Excess salt, via oxidative stress, accelerates stroke, and angiotensin II, via AT1 receptor, plays a pivotal role in brain superoxide production of SHRSP by excess salt.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Cuff BP has variable accuracy for measuring either brachial or aortic intra-arterial BP, and this adversely influences correct BP classification, indicating that stronger accuracy standards for BP devices may improve cardiovascular risk management.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pentraxin 3 Is a New Inflammatory Marker Correlated With Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction and Heart Failure With Normal Ejection Fraction
Junichi Matsubara,Seigo Sugiyama,Toshimitsu Nozaki,Koichi Sugamura,Masaaki Konishi,Keisuke Ohba,Yasushi Matsuzawa,Eiichi Akiyama,Eiichiro Yamamoto,Kenji Sakamoto,Yasuhiro Nagayoshi,Koichi Kaikita,Hitoshi Sumida,Shokei Kim-Mitsuyama,Hisao Ogawa +14 more
TL;DR: Pentraxin 3 is significantly elevated in HFNEF patients and produced in the coronary circulation in patients with LVDD, but not high-sensitivity CRP, is an independent inflammatory marker correlated with the presence of LVDd and HFNEf.
