Journal ArticleDOI
Basic mechanisms of high-risk human papillomavirus-induced carcinogenesis: roles of E6 and E7 proteins.
Mako Narisawa-Saito,Tohru Kiyono +1 more
TL;DR: The mechanisms of HPV16 E6‐ and E7‐induced multistep carcinogenesis and recently identified functions of these onco‐proteins are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regulation of Notch1 gene expression by p53 in epithelial cells.
Takashi Yugawa,Keisuke Handa,Mako Narisawa-Saito,Shin Ichi Ohno,Masatoshi Fujita,Tohru Kiyono +5 more
TL;DR: A novel link between p53 and Notch1 in keratinocyte differentiation upon genotoxic stress is demonstrated and a novel tumor suppressor mechanism of p53 in the development of squamous cell carcinomas, including HPV-induced tumors is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
NRF2 Mutation Confers Malignant Potential and Resistance to Chemoradiation Therapy in Advanced Esophageal Squamous Cancer
Tatsuhiro Shibata,Akiko Kokubu,Shigeru Saito,Mako Narisawa-Saito,Hiroki Sasaki,Kazuhiko Aoyagi,Yuki Yoshimatsu,Yuji Tachimori,Ryoji Kushima,Tohru Kiyono,Masayuki Yamamoto +10 more
TL;DR: Recurrent NRF2 mutation confers malignant potential and resistance to therapy in advanced ESC, resulting in a poorer outcome, and efficient inhibition of aberrantNRF2 activation could be a promising approach in combination with CRT.
Journal ArticleDOI
Deregulation of Cdt1 induces chromosomal damage without rereplication and leads to chromosomal instability.
Yasutoshi Tatsumi,Nozomi Sugimoto,Takashi Yugawa,Mako Narisawa-Saito,Tohru Kiyono,Masatoshi Fujita +5 more
TL;DR: Data from several different systems all strongly indicate that unregulated Cdt1 overexpression at pathophysiological levels can induce chromosomal damage other than rereplication in non-transformed cells, and it is found that deregulated Cdt 1 induces chromosomal instability in normal human cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oncogenic transformation of human ovarian surface epithelial cells with defined cellular oncogenes.
Rumi Sasaki,Mako Narisawa-Saito,Takashi Yugawa,Masatoshi Fujita,Hironori Tashiro,Hidetaka Katabuchi,Tohru Kiyono +6 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that inactivation of p53 and activation of the Ras pathway play critical roles in ovarian carcinogenesis in co-operation with the Akt or c-myc pathways.
