Kozo Makino,Kenshiro Oshima,Kenshiro Oshima,Ken Kurokawa,Katsushi Yokoyama,Takayuki Uda,Kenichi Tagomori,Yoshio Iijima,Masatomo Najima,Masayuki Nakano,Atsushi Yamashita,Yoshino Kubota,Shigenobu Kimura,Teruo Yasunaga,Takeshi Honda,Hideo Shinagawa,Masahira Hattori,Tetsuya Iida +17 more
TL;DR: This finding explains clinical features of V parahaemolyticus infections, which commonly include inflammatory diarrhoea and in some cases systemic manifestations such as septicaemia, distinct from those of V cholerae infections,Which are generally associated with non-inflammatory diarrhoeA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distribution and genetic association of putative uropathogenic virulence factors iroN, iha, kpsMT, ompT and usp in Escherichia coli isolated from urinary tract infections in Japan.

TL;DR: Of the putative uropathogenic VFs examined, iroN, iha, kpsMT, ompT and usp were frequently associated with urinary tract infection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intraoperative radiotherapy for advanced carcinoma of the biliary system
Takeshi Todoroki,Yoji Iwasaki,Takao Okamura,Kazuo Nagoshi,Hideo Asakura,Masayuki Nakano,Tetsuo Inada,Hiroshi Tsunemoto,Yoichiro Umegaki,Akira Nishimura,Masao Nakano,Hiroshi Sato +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, intraoperative radiotherapy has been performed on five patients with unresectable, advanced carcinoma of the bile duct at the hepatic hilus and six patients with non-malignancy of the gallbladder.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of a putative virulence island in the chromosome of uropathogenic Escherichia coli possessing a gene encoding a uropathogenic-specific protein
Hisao Kurazono,S. Yamamoto,Masayuki Nakano,G.B. Nair,Akito Terai,Wanpen Chaicumpa,Hideo Hayashi +6 more
TL;DR: The proximity of these set of genes in a specific area of the bacterial chromosome resembling a block of genes preferentially associated with UPEC coupled with the presence of a motif matching that of a Tn3 transposon family lead us to believe that this could be an hitherto unknown pathogenicity island.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structural and sequence diversity of the pathogenicity island of uropathogenic Escherichia coli which encodes the USP protein.
Masayuki Nakano,Shingo Yamamoto,Akito Terai,Osamu Ogawa,Sou-ichi Makino,Hideo Hayashi,G. Balakrish Nair,Hisao Kurazono +7 more
TL;DR: A total of 321 uropathogenic Escherichia coli strains and 12 strains of E. coli isolated from stool samples of healthy individuals, which were previously shown to be positive in colony hybridization test using the usp DNA probe, were examined by PCR amplification to determine the size of the usP gene and the pathogenicity island (PI).
