Association Between Common Genetic Variants in Pre‐microRNAs and Gastric Cancer Risk in Japanese Population
- Masaaki Okubo, T. Tahara, +7 authors I. Hirata
- Biology, Medicine
- Helicobacter
- 1 December 2010
Background: Common single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in microRNAs (miRNA) have been shown to be associated with susceptibility to several human cancers. We evaluated the associations of three… Expand
Genetic polymorphism of interleukin-17A and -17F genes in gastric carcinogenesis.
- T. Shibata, T. Tahara, I. Hirata, T. Arisawa
- Biology, Medicine
- Human immunology
- 1 July 2009
Interleukin-17A (IL-17A) and IL-17F play a role in tissue inflammation by inducing release of proinflammatory and neutrophil-mobilizing cytokines. We investigated the associations between gastric… Expand
Toll‐like receptor 2 –196 to 174del polymorphism influences the susceptibility of Japanese people to gastric cancer
- T. Tahara, T. Arisawa, +5 authors H. Nakano
- Biology, Medicine
- Cancer science
- 1 November 2007
Toll like receptors (TLR) play important roles in the signaling of many pathogen‐related molecules and endogenous proteins associated with immune activation. The –196 to –174del polymorphism affects… Expand
Preoperative staging of superficial esophageal carcinoma: comparison of an ultrasound probe and standard endoscopic ultrasonography.
- N. Hasegawa, Y. Niwa, T. Arisawa, S. Hase, H. Goto, T. Hayakawa
- Medicine
- Gastrointestinal endoscopy
- 1 October 1996
BACKGROUND
In diagnosing superficial esophageal carcinoma, it is necessary to differentiate mucosal carcinoma from submucosal carcinoma because mucosal carcinoma has a good prognosis and local… Expand
The Influence of Polymorphisms of Interleukin-17A and Interleukin-17F Genes on the Susceptibility to Ulcerative Colitis
- T. Arisawa, T. Tahara, +10 authors H. Nakano
- Biology, Medicine
- Journal of Clinical Immunology
- 2007
We investigated the association between ulcerative colitis (UC) and polymorphisms of IL-17A (rs2275913, G-197A) and IL-17F (rs763780, 7488T/C) genes. We employed the multiplex PCR-SSCP method to… Expand
Prevalence of gallbladder polyps among apparently healthy Japanese: ultrasonographic study.
- K. Segawa, T. Arisawa, +6 authors N. Ohmiya
- Medicine
- The American journal of gastroenterology
- 1 May 1992
The prevalence of gallbladder polyps was investigated in apparently healthy Japanese who underwent abdominal ultrasonography as part of their health screening examination. The polyps found were… Expand
Genetic polymorphisms of IL17A and pri-microRNA-938, targeting IL17A 3'-UTR, influence susceptibility to gastric cancer.
- T. Arisawa, T. Tahara, +13 authors T. Shibata
- Biology, Medicine
- Human immunology
- 1 July 2012
We report an association between gastric cancer (GC) and polymorphisms in IL17A, rs2275913 (-197 G > A), rs3748067 (*1249 C > T), and pri-miR-938, rs2505901 (T > C). We employed the multiplex… Expand
Effect of MDR1 gene promoter methylation in patients with ulcerative colitis.
- T. Tahara, T. Shibata, +14 authors T. Arisawa
- Biology, Medicine
- International journal of molecular medicine
- 1 April 2009
Altered MDR1 expression and/or function contribute to the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). DNA methylation was shown as an important mechanism in gene silencing. We investigated DNA… Expand
Evidence-based clinical practice guidelines for functional dyspepsia
- H. Miwa, M. Kusano, +18 authors T. Shimosegawa
- Medicine
- Journal of Gastroenterology
- 14 January 2015
General interest in functional gastrointestinal disorders is increasing among Japanese doctors as well as patients. This increase can be attributed to a number of factors, including recent increased… Expand
