Journal Article
Activation of telomerase in human lymphocytes and hematopoietic progenitor cells
Keiko Hiyama,Y Hirai,Seishi Kyoizumi,M Akiyama,Eiso Hiyama,Mieczyslaw A. Piatyszek,Jerry W. Shay,Shinichi Ishioka,Michio Yamakido +8 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that telomerase activity is detectable at low levels in normal human T and B cells, increases by in vitro mitogenic stimulation, increases in hematopoietic progenitor cells upon their proliferation and differentiation, and decreases with aging.
Journal ArticleDOI
COPD in Japan : the Nippon COPD Epidemiology study
Yoshinosuke Fukuchi,Masaharu Nishimura,Masakazu Ichinose,Mitsuru Adachi,Atsushi Nagai,Takayuki Kuriyama,Keiji Takahashi,Koichi Nishimura,Shinichi Ishioka,Hisamichi Aizawa,Carol A. Zaher +10 more
TL;DR: The Nippon COPD Epidemiology (NICE) Study used spirometry to measure prevalence of airflow limitation in Japanese adults and found that smoking rates in Japan are high and prevalence of COPD is high.
Journal ArticleDOI
Telomerase Activity in Small-Cell and Non–Small-Cell Lung Cancers
Keiko Hiyama,Eiso Hiyama,Eiso Hiyama,Shinichi Ishioka,Michio Yamakido,Kouki Inai,Adi F. Gazdar,Mieczyslaw A. Piatyszek,Jerry W. Shay +8 more
TL;DR: The subset of non-small-cell lung cancers that exhibits only low or undetectable levels of telomerase activity may contain primarily mortal cancer cells, which are likely to consist mainly of immortal cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Allelotype frequency of the thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) gene in Japanese.
Kazuhiko Kumagai,Keiko Hiyama,Shinichi Ishioka,Hiroe Sato,Yuji Yamanishi,Howard L. McLeod,Futoshi Konishi,Hiroyuki Maeda,Michio Yamakido +8 more
TL;DR: Investigation of TPMT polymorphisms with consideration of ethnic differences before administration of azathioprine or 6MP may provide clinically useful information.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential Expression of Facilitative Glucose Transporter (GLUT) Genes in Primary Lung Cancers and Their Liver Metastases
TL;DR: The results show that the gene expression pattern of the GLUT family is different between primary and metastatic liver tumors and suggest that the energy transporters in metastatic tumors may be different from those in primary tumors.
