Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of Conserved Ambisense Sequences within GB Virus C
Yutaka Kondo,Masashi Mizokami,Tatsunori Nakano,Takanobu Kato,Yasuhito Tanaka,Noboru Hirashima,Ryuzo Ueda,Mitoshi Kunimatsu,Makoto Sasaki,Kiyomi Yasuda,Shiro Iino +10 more
TL;DR: Results indicated that a novel protein associated with GBV-C might be expressed from the ambisense of this virus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Outcome of nucleos(t)ide analog intervention in patients with preventive or on‐demand therapy for hepatitis B virus reactivation
Akihiro Tamori,Kiminori Kimura,Kiyohide Kioka,Hirayuki Enomoto,Naoshi Odagiri,Ritsuzo Kozuka,Sawako Uchida-Kobayashi,Masaru Enomoto,Norifumi Kawada,Masashi Mizokami +9 more
TL;DR: HBsAg predicted HBV relapse after the cessation of NA therapy in HBsAg‐positive patients, and anti‐HBs could be a predictive marker for NA therapy cessation in patients with resolved HBV.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nucleotide sequence of the core region of hepatitis C virus in Pakistan and Bangladesh and the geographic characterisation of hepatitis C virus in south Asia.
Tomoyoshi Ohno,Masashi Mizokami,Christopher J. Tibbs,Kayhan T. Nouri-Aria,Rong‐Rong ‐R Wu,Ken-ichi Ohba,Etsuro Orito,Kaoru Suzuki,Naoto Mizoguchi,Tatsunori Nakano,Mobin Khan,Michitani Yano,Kendo Kiyosawa,Roger Williams +13 more
TL;DR: Detailed determination and evaluation of partial sequences in the core region of HCV obtained from patients with chronic hepatitis in Pakistan and Bangladesh suggest that clones might be classified into the same genotype as HCV‐TR, and further analysis using molecular evolutionary methods strongly supported the classification of these sequences.
Book ChapterDOI
Transmission of Hepatitis C Virus Through Needlestick Accidents in Health Care Workers
Takeshi Sodeyama,Kendo Kiyosawa,Akihiko Urushihara,Akihiro Matsumoto,Eiji Tanaka,Seiichi Furuta,Masashi Mizokami,Yoshihiro Akahane +7 more
TL;DR: Though this transmission rate is not necessarily high, needlestick accident is an apparent HCV transmission route, and appropriate precautions in hospital employees and careful follow-up of such accidents are needed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Orchestration of Intracellular Circuits by G Protein-Coupled Receptor 39 for Hepatitis B Virus Proliferation
Kaku Goto,Hironori Nishitsuji,Masaya Sugiyama,Nao Nishida,Masashi Mizokami,Kunitada Shimotohno +5 more
TL;DR: GPR39 and the regulated signaling networks would serve as antiviral targets, and strategies with selective inhibitors of GPR39 functions can develop host-targeted antiviral therapies preventing HCC.
