Journal ArticleDOI
Values of carcinoembryonic antigen, elastase 1, and carbohydrate antigen determinant in aspirated pancreatic cystic fluid in the diagnosis of cysts of the pancreas
Masaharu Tatsuta,Hiroyasu Iishi,Makoto Ichii,Sanai Noguchi,Reiko Yamamoto,Hisako Yamamura,Shigeru Okuda +6 more
TL;DR: The levels of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), elastase 1, and carbohydrate antigen determinant (CA 19‐9) in the pancreatic cystic fluid and the serum from five patients with cystadenocarcinoma of the pancreas and eight patients with benign pseudocyst accompanying or following pancreatitis were determined by immunoassay technique.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mice lacking smooth muscle calponin display increased bone formation that is associated with enhancement of bone morphogenetic protein responses.
Hideki Yoshikawa,Shun'ichiro Taniguchi,Hisako Yamamura,Shigeki Mori,Mizuo Sugimoto,Kenji Miyado,Kenji Nakamura,Kazuki Nakao,Motoya Katsuki,Nobuhiko Shibata,Katsuhito Takahashi +10 more
TL;DR: The physiological role of calponin in vivo has not been clarified and it is shown that it promotes actin polymerization and inhibits actin‐activated myosin ATPase activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Values of CA 19-9 in the serum, pure pancreatic juice, and aspirated pancreatic material in the diagnosis of malignant pancreatic tumor.
Masaharu Tatsuta,Hisako Yamamura,Hiroyasu Iishi,Makoto Ichii,Sanai Noguchi,Reiko Yamamoto,Shigeru Okuda +6 more
TL;DR: Although CA 19‐9 levels in pancreatic materials was useful only when cytologic examination did not provide any evidence of malignancy, the combination of the CA 19-9 assay and the cytologic study of specimens obtained by percutaneous fine‐needle aspiration biopsy of the pancreas increased the diagnostic rate to 100%.
Journal Article
Identification of the Transcriptional Regulatory Sequences of Human Calponin Promoter and Their Use in Targeting a Conditionally Replicating Herpes Vector to Malignant Human Soft Tissue and Bone Tumors
Hisako Yamamura,Miho Hashio,Mika Noguchi,Youichi Sugenoya,Masakazu Osakada,Noriko Hirano,Yumiko Sasaki,Takahiro Yoden,Nobuhisa Awata,Nobuhito Araki,Masaharu Tatsuta,Shin-Ichi Miyatake,Katsuhito Takahashi +12 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that replication-competent virus vectors controlled by the calponin transcriptional regulatory sequence may be a new therapeutic strategy for treatment of malignant human soft tissue and bone tumors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression of the smooth muscle calponin gene in human osteosarcoma and its possible association with prognosis
Hisako Yamamura,Hideki Yoshikawa,Masaharu Tatsuta,Hitoshi Akedo,Katsuhito Takahashi,Katsuhito Takahashi +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the expression of the basic calponin protein was found to be a novel prognostic variable in patients with osteosarcoma, compared with those with no expression.
