Journal ArticleDOI
Human recombinant erythropoietin inhibits interleukin-1beta-stimulated nitric oxide and cyclic guanosine monophosphate production in cultured rat vascular smooth-muscle cells.
Eiji Kusano,Tetsu Akimoto,Makoto Inoue,Yoshinori Masunaga,Tetsuo Umino,Shuichi Ono,Yasuhiro Ando,Sumiko Homma,Shigeaki Muto,Norio Komatsu,Yasushi Asano +10 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that a pharmacological dose of rHuEpo inhibits IL-1beta-induced NO and cGMP production as well as iNOS mRNA expression, presumably via the Epo receptor, in cultured rat VSMC.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of raloxifene on bone metabolism in hemodialysis patients with type 2 diabetes.
Osamu Saito,Takako Saito,Shinji Asakura,Tetsu Akimoto,Makoto Inoue,Yasuhiro Ando,Shigeaki Muto,Eiji Kusano +7 more
TL;DR: Investigating the effects of raloxifene on bone turnover markers and bone density in postmenopausal women with type 2 diabetes mellitus who were undergoing hemodialysis in Japan found it can suppress reduction in bone density.
Journal ArticleDOI
Involvement of erythropoietin-induced cytosolic free calcium mobilization in activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase and DNA synthesis in vascular smooth muscle cells.
Tetsu Akimoto,Eiji Kusano,Chiharu Ito,Satoru Yanagiba,Makoto Inoue,Morimasa Amemiya,Yasuhiro Ando,Yasushi Asano +7 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that rHuEPO increases [Ca2+]i by both Ca2+ influx and Ca2- release from intracellular stores, and stimulates MAP kinase activation and DNA synthesis in VSMC.
Journal ArticleDOI
Matrix metalloproteinase levels in the drained dialysate reflect the peritoneal solute transport rate: a multicentre study in Japan
TL;DR: Most MMP-2 in the drained dialysate may be produced from the peritoneum, and M MP-2 is expected to be a useful marker of peritoneal injury or change in peritoneAL solute transport.
Journal ArticleDOI
A case of IgG4-related tubulointerstitial nephritis with left hydronephrosis after a remission of urinary tract tuberculosis.
Toshimi Imai,Wako Yumura,Fumi Takemoto,Atsushi Kotoda,Reika Imai,Makoto Inoue,Mitsugu Hironaka,Shigeaki Muto,Eiji Kusano +8 more
TL;DR: The case suggests that an abnormal reaction to tuberculosis may be associated with a predominance of type-2 helper T-cell immunity, thus resulting in IgG4-related systemic disease.
