Journal ArticleDOI
Airway wall thickness in asthma assessed by computed tomography. Relation to clinical indices.
A Niimi,Hisako Matsumoto,Ryoichi Amitani,Yasutaka Nakano,Michiaki Mishima,Masayoshi Minakuchi,Koichi Nishimura,Harumi Itoh,Takateru Izumi +8 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that airway wall thickening occurs in patients with asthma and is not limited to those with severe disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genome-wide association study identifies three new susceptibility loci for adult asthma in the Japanese population
Tomomitsu Hirota,Atsushi Takahashi,Michiaki Kubo,Tatsuhiko Tsunoda,Kaori Tomita,Satoru Doi,Kimie Fujita,Akihiko Miyatake,Tadao Enomoto,Takehiko Miyagawa,Mitsuru Adachi,Hiroshi Tanaka,Akio Niimi,Hisako Matsumoto,Isao Ito,Hironori Masuko,Tohru Sakamoto,Nobuyuki Hizawa,Masami Taniguchi,John J. Lima,Charles G. Irvin,Stephen P. Peters,Blanca E. Himes,Augusto A. Litonjua,Kelan G. Tantisira,Scott T. Weiss,Naoyuki Kamatani,Yusuke Nakamura,Mayumi Tamari +28 more
TL;DR: The most significant association with adult asthma is observed at rs404860 in the major histocompatiblity complex region, which is close to rs2070600, a SNP previously reported for association with FEV1/FVC in genome-wide association studies for lung function.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationship of airway wall thickness to airway sensitivity and airway reactivity in asthma
TL;DR: It is suggested that airway wall thickening attenuates airway reactivity in patients with asthma and may have important implications in pathophysiology and in the treatment of airway remodeling.
Journal ArticleDOI
Generation of Alveolar Epithelial Spheroids via Isolated Progenitor Cells from Human Pluripotent Stem Cells
Shimpei Gotoh,Isao Ito,Tadao Nagasaki,Yuki Yamamoto,Satoshi Konishi,Yohei Korogi,Hisako Matsumoto,Shigeo Muro,Toyohiro Hirai,Michinori Funato,Shin-Ichi Mae,Taro Toyoda,Aiko Sato-Otsubo,Seishi Ogawa,Kenji Osafune,Michiaki Mishima +15 more
TL;DR: 3D coculture differentiation of CPM+ cells formed spheroids with lamellar-body-like structures and an increased expression of surfactant proteins compared with 2D differentiation to aid human pulmonary disease modeling and regenerative medicine.
Journal ArticleDOI
High sensitivity C-reactive protein in asthma
Masaya Takemura,Hisako Matsumoto,Akio Niimi,Takashi Ueda,Hirofumi Matsuoka,Masafumi Yamaguchi,Makiko Jinnai,Shigeo Muro,Toyohiro Hirai,Yutaka Ito,Takaya Nakamura,Tadashi Mio,Kazuo Chin,Michiaki Mishima +13 more
TL;DR: An increase in serum C-reactive protein levels measured by high-sensitivity assays may be associated with airflow obstruction and airway inflammation, and may serve as a surrogate marker ofAirway inflammation in asthma.
