Journal ArticleDOI
Nanoparticles of adaptive supramolecular networks self-assembled from nucleotides and lanthanide ions.
Ryuhei Nishiyabu,Nozomi Hashimoto,Ten Cho,Kazuto Watanabe,T. Yasunaga,Ayataka Endo,Kenji Kaneko,Takuro Niidome,Masaharu Murata,Chihaya Adachi,Yoshiki Katayama,Makoto Hashizume,Nobuo Kimizuka +12 more
TL;DR: The adaptive nature of present supramolecular nanoparticles provides a versatile platform that can be utilized in a variety of applications ranging from material to biomedical sciences, and biocompatibility and liver-directing characteristics in in vivo tissue localization experiments are demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Autophagy is Required for Activation of Pancreatic Stellate Cells, Associated With Pancreatic Cancer Progression and Promotes Growth of Pancreatic Tumors in Mice.
Sho Endo,Kohei Nakata,Kenoki Ohuchida,Shin Takesue,Hiromichi Nakayama,Toshiya Abe,Kazuhiro Koikawa,Takashi Okumura,Masafumi Sada,Kohei Horioka,Biao Zheng,Yusuke Mizuuchi,Chika Iwamoto,Masaharu Murata,Taiki Moriyama,Yoshihiro Miyasaka,Takao Ohtsuka,Kazuhiro Mizumoto,Yoshinao Oda,Makoto Hashizume,Masafumi Nakamura +20 more
TL;DR: Autophagic PSCs produce ECM molecules and interleukin 6 and are associated with shorter survival times and disease recurrence in patients with pancreatic cancer, and inhibitors of PSC autophagy might reduce pancreatic tumor invasiveness by altering the tumor stroma.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gold nanoparticle-based colorimetric assay for cancer diagnosis
Jeong Hun Kang,Yoji Asami,Masaharu Murata,Hirotaro Kitazaki,Noriaki Sadanaga,Eriko Tokunaga,Satoko Shiotani,Satoko Okada,Yoshihiko Maehara,Takuro Niidome,Makoto Hashizume,Takeshi Mori,Yoshiki Katayama +12 more
TL;DR: This study is the first report on the application of the GNP-based colorimetric assay to the diagnosis of cancer, and the different results between cancer and normal tissues reflected the difference in PKCalpha activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anti-obesity and anti-inflammatory effects of macrophage-targeted interleukin-10-conjugated liposomes in obese mice.
TL;DR: The findings suggest that the PSL-IL10 has macrophage targeting ability and enhanced anti- inflammatory effect due to the synergistic anti-inflammatory effects of IL-10 and PSL, and can be used as amacrophage-targeted therapeutic material for inflammation-related diseases, including obesity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel Biosensor for the Rapid Measurement of Estrogen Based on a Ligand-Receptor Interaction
Masaharu Murata,Masamichi Nakayama,Hiroshi Irie,Keiko Yakabe,Kaori Fukuma,Yoshiki Katayama,Mizuo Maeda +6 more
TL;DR: Cyclic voltammetric measurements showed that the reversible electrochemical reaction of a ferrocyanide/ferricyanide redox couple was suppressed by the presence of estrogen in a concentration-dependent manner.
