Journal ArticleDOI
Production of hydrogen peroxide by transforming growth factor-beta 1 and its involvement in induction of egr-1 in mouse osteoblastic cells.
TL;DR: Findings suggest that H2O2 acts as a mediator for the TGF-beta 1-induced transcription of egr-1 gene.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regulation of Terminal Differentiation of Cultured Mouse Epidermal Cells by lα,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3
TL;DR: Of several derivatives of vitamin D3 examined, 1 alpha,25(OH)2D3 was the most potent in inducing epidermal differentiation and markedly stimulated formation of a cornified envelope, a structure with chemically stable cross-links formed beneath the plasma membrane.
Journal ArticleDOI
Higher frequency of Smad4 gene mutation in human colorectal cancer with distant metastasis
Michiko Miyaki,Takeru Iijima,Motoko Konishi,Kimiyo Sakai,Aki Ishii,Masamichi Yasuno,Tsunekazu Hishima,Morio Koike,Nobuyuki Shitara,Takeo Iwama,Joji Utsunomiya,Toshio Kuroki,Takeo Mori +12 more
TL;DR: The present results suggest that Smad4 gene is one of true targets of 18qLOH, and that its inactivation is involved in advanced stages, such as distant metastasis, in human colorectal carcinogenesis.
Journal Article
High incidence of amplification of the epidermal growth factor receptor gene in human squamous carcinoma cell lines.
Tadashi Yamamoto,Nobuyuki Kamata,H Kawano,S Shimizu,Toshio Kuroki,Kumao Toyoshima,Koichi Rikimaru,N Nomura,R Ishizaki,Ira Pastan +9 more
TL;DR: The results show that amplification of the EGF receptor gene is commonly found in various tumors and suggest that primary squamous cell carcinomas with amplified EGFceptor gene may readily adapt to growth in tissue culture.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transcriptional activation of early-response genes by hydrogen peroxide in a mouse osteoblastic cell line.
TL;DR: H2O2 seemed to induce c-fos and c-jun by activating protein kinases distinct from protein kinase C, which indicates that the inductions by H2O1 of c- fos and possibly other early response genes are mediated through activation of the serum-response element in their enhancer.
