Hypoxia stimulates pancreatic stellate cells to induce fibrosis and angiogenesis in pancreatic cancer.
Atsushi Masamune,Kazuhiro Kikuta,Takashi Watanabe,Kennichi Satoh,Morihisa Hirota,Tooru Shimosegawa +5 more
TL;DR: In conclusion, hypoxia induced profibrogenic and proangiogenic responses in PSCs, suggesting that P SCs might play proangIogenic roles during the development of pancreatic fibrosis, where they are subjected to Hypoxia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pancreatic stellate cells promote epithelial-mesenchymal transition in pancreatic cancer cells
Kazuhiro Kikuta,Atsushi Masamune,Takashi Watanabe,Hiroyuki Ariga,Hiromichi Itoh,Shin Hamada,Kennichi Satoh,Shinichi Egawa,Michiaki Unno,Tooru Shimosegawa +9 more
TL;DR: PSCs promoted EMT in pancreatic cancer cells suggesting a novel mechanism by which PSCs contribute to the aggressive behavior of pancreaticcancer cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intestinal CD169+ macrophages initiate mucosal inflammation by secreting CCL8 that recruits inflammatory monocytes
Kenichi Asano,Naomichi Takahashi,Mikiko Ushiki,Misa Monya,Fumiaki Aihara,Erika Kuboki,Shigetaka Moriyama,Mayumi Iida,Hiroshi Kitamura,Chun-Hong Qiu,Takashi Watanabe,Masato Tanaka +11 more
TL;DR: It is shown that CD169+ macrophage-derived CCL8 serves as an emergency alert for the collapse of barrier defence, and is a promising target for the suppression of mucosal injury.
Journal ArticleDOI
NADPH oxidase plays a crucial role in the activation of pancreatic stellate cells
TL;DR: PSCs express NADPH oxidase to generate ROS, which mediates key cell functions and activation of PSCs, which might be a potential target for the treatment of pancreatic fibrosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Joint angle control by FES using a feedback error learning controller
TL;DR: The feedback error learning scheme was studied for a functional electrical stimulation (FES) controller and showed that the FEL controller functioned as expected and performed better than the conventional PID controller adjusted by the Chien, Hrones and Reswick method for a fast movement.
