Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular Diagnosis of Human Enteroviruses by Phylogeny-Based Classification by Use of the VP4 Sequence
Hiroaki Ishiko,Yasushi Shimada,Mari Yonaha,Osamu Hashimoto,Akio Hayashi,Kenji Sakae,Naokazu Takeda +6 more
TL;DR: This study investigated a rapid and reliable method based on reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction and phylogenetic analysis that appears to be an effective tool for the molecular epidemiology study of EVs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel Human Adenovirus Causing Nosocomial Epidemic Keratoconjunctivitis
Hiroaki Ishiko,Yasushi Shimada,Tsunetada Konno,Akio Hayashi,Takeshi Ohguchi,Yoshitsugu Tagawa,Koki Aoki,Shigeaki Ohno,Shudo Yamazaki +8 more
TL;DR: It is believed that this virus is a novel serotype of HAdV that causes EKC, which is found in eye clinics in different parts of Japan.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantitative detection and rapid identification of human adenoviruses.
Rika Miura-Ochiai,Yasushi Shimada,Tsunetada Konno,Shudo Yamazaki,Koki Aoki,Shigeaki Ohno,Eitaro Suzuki,Hiroaki Ishiko +7 more
TL;DR: LightCycler PCR followed by phylogenetic analysis provides an effective tool for the rapid identification of hAdVs and for studying molecular epidemiology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selection of Mycoplasma genitalium strains harbouring macrolide resistance-associated 23S rRNA mutations by treatment with a single 1 g dose of azithromycin.
Shin Ito,Yasushi Shimada,Yuko Yamaguchi,Mitsuru Yasuda,Shigeaki Yokoi,Shinichi Ito,Masahiro Nakano,Hiroaki Ishiko,Takashi Deguchi +8 more
TL;DR: The genotyping of M genitalium DNAs suggested that these four post-treatment strains were selected from the respective closely related or identical pretreatment strains without macrolide resistance-associated mutations by the treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Human rhinovirus 87 identified as human enterovirus 68 by VP4-based molecular diagnosis.
Hiroaki Ishiko,Rika Miura,Yasushi Shimada,Akio Hayashi,Haruhiko Nakajima,Shudo Yamazaki,Naokazu Takeda +6 more
TL;DR: A diagnostic method based on the reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and VP4-based phylogenetic analysis for HRVs found the HRV-87 showed the second highest homology with EV-70, another member of the human EV-D, in a sample of 66 human EVs and 12 HRVs.
