Journal ArticleDOI
BALB/3T3 fibroblast-conditioned medium attracts cultured mast cells derived from W/W but not from mi/mi mutant mice, both of which are deficient in mast cells.
Tomoko Jippo-Kanemoto,Shiro Adachi,Yoshitaka Ebi,Hiroshi Matsuda,Tsutomu Kasugai,Shin-ichi Nishikawa,Yukihiko Kitamura +6 more
TL;DR: The present results suggest that the mechanism of the abnormality is different between W/W and mi/mi mice, and indicates that MGF/SCF/KL itself did not represent the major chemoattractive activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Invasive Ductal Adenocarcinoma of the Remnant Pancreatic Body 9 Years after Resection of an Intraductal Papillary-Mucinous Carcinoma of the Pancreatic Head: a Case Report and Comparison of DNA Sequence in K-ras Gene Mutation
Takamichi Komori,Osamu Ishikawa,Hiroaki Ohigashi,Terumasa Yamada,Yo Sasaki,Shingi Imaoka,Akihiko Nakaizumi,Hiroyuki Uehara,Sachiko Tanaka,Yoshiyuki Mano,Tsutomu Kasugai +10 more
TL;DR: This is the first report in which the DNA sequence of K-ras mutation was determined for the two sporadic pancreatic cancers and surrounding duct changes, and the cell-origin might have differed between the two types of cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Feasibility and Efficacy of Combination Therapy With Preoperative and Postoperative Chemoradiation, Extended Pancreatectomy, and Postoperative Liver Perfusion Chemotherapy for Locally Advanced Cancers of the Pancreatic Head
Hiroaki Ohigashi,Osamu Ishikawa,Hidetoshi Eguchi,Yo Sasaki,Terumasa Yamada,Shingo Noura,Kohei Murata,Ko Takachi,Isao Miyashiro,Yuichiro Doki,Shingi Imaoka,Tsutomu Kasugai,Kinji Nishiyama +12 more
TL;DR: A combination of preoperative and postoperative chemoradiation plus postoperative liver perfusion chemotherapy with an extended pancreatectomy is feasible, and the long-term outcomes are also promising.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sentinel node biopsy to avoid axillary lymph node dissection in breast cancer
Kazuyoshi Motomura,Yoshifumi Komoike,Sachiko Nagumo,Tsutomu Kasugai,Yoshihisa Hasegawa,Hideo Inaji,Shinzaburo Noguchi,Hiroki Koyama +7 more
TL;DR: The role of sentinel node biopsy in breast cancer has increased over the last few years and many problems remain, such as the ideal injection technique, ideal agents, and ideal histological detection of sent Sentinel node metastases, and must be addressed before sentinel nodes biopsy becomes the standard of care for patients with breast cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surgical significance of superficial cancer spread in early gallbladder cancer
Hidetoshi Eguchi,Osamu Ishikawa,Hiroaki Ohigashi,Tsutomu Kasugai,Shigekazu Yokoyama,Terumasa Yamada,Yuichiro Doki,Kohei Murata,Isao Miyashiro,Yo Sasaki,Shingi Imaoka +10 more
TL;DR: Comparison between the cases having superficial cancer spread and the cases without it revealed that the macroscopic morphology of the primary tumor and the depth of cancer invasion in the gallbladder wall were significantly different between the two groups.
