Journal ArticleDOI
Small hepatocellular carcinoma: comparison of radio-frequency ablation and percutaneous microwave coagulation therapy.
TL;DR: RF ablation and PMC thus far have had equivalent therapeutic effects, complication rates, and rates of residual foci of untreated disease, however, RF tumor ablation can be achieved with fewer sessions.
Journal ArticleDOI
A novel 3D hepatectomy simulation based on liver circulation: Application to liver resection and transplantation
Shinichi Saito,Junichi Yamanaka,Miura K,Norio Nakao,Tomohiro Nagao,Takaaki Sugimoto,Tadamichi Hirano,Nobukazu Kuroda,Yuji Iimuro,Jiro Fujimoto +9 more
TL;DR: This hepatectomy simulation software reliably predicted an accurate liver resection volume, the cancer‐free margin, and the drainage volume of hepatic vein branches.
Journal ArticleDOI
Contribution of Toll-like receptor/myeloid differentiation factor 88 signaling to murine liver regeneration.
Ekihiro Seki,Hiroko Tsutsui,Yuji Iimuro,Tetsuji Naka,Gakuhei Son,Shizuo Akira,Tadamitsu Kishimoto,Kenji Nakanishi,Jiro Fujimoto +8 more
TL;DR: The TLR/MyD88 pathway is essential for incidental liver restoration, particularly its early phase, and is excluded from a possible contribution of TLR2/TLR4 or TLR9 to MyD88‐mediated pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estrogen increases sensitivity of hepatic Kupffer cells to endotoxin
Kenichi Ikejima,Nobuyuki Enomoto,Yuji Iimuro,Ayako Ikejima,Dawn Fang,Juliana Xu,Donald T. Forman,David A. Brenner,Ronald G. Thurman +8 more
TL;DR: Estrogen treatment in vivo sensitizes Kupffer cells to LPS, leading to increased toxic mediator production by the liver, and estrogen treatment increased LPS binding protein mRNA dramatically in liver in 6-24 h.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adenovirus-mediated expression of BMP-7 suppresses the development of liver fibrosis in rats
Kohji Kinoshita,Yuji Iimuro,Kohji Otogawa,Shizuya Saika,Yutaka Inagaki,Yuji Nakajima,Norifumi Kawada,Jiro Fujimoto,Scott L. Friedman,Kazuo Ikeda +9 more
TL;DR: Data demonstrate that BMP-7, Smad 1/5/8 and Ids interact to antagonise hepatic fibrogenesis.
