Clinical Value of Whole-body FDG-PET for Recurrent Gastric Cancer: A Multicenter Study (2009)

Nakamoto, Yuji, Togashi, Kaori, Kaneta, Tomohiro, Fukuda, Hiroshi, Nakajima, Kotaro, Kitajima, Kazuhiro, ...

Objective The purpose of this multicenter study was to evaluate the clinical usefulness of positron emission tomography (PET) using 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) for suspected recurrent gastric...

Middle bile duct cancer with portal vein tumor thrombus (2008)

Shimoda, Mitsugi, Iso, Yukihiro, Tomita, Shigeki, Fujimori, Takahiro, Murakami, Koji, Sawada, Tokihiko, ...

Abstract Background Tumor thrombus in the portal vein is a common complication of hepatocellular carcinoma, but an extremely rare complication of common bile duct cancer. Case presentation A...

Evaluation of Direct Speech Translation Method Using Inductive Learning (2007)

For Conversations In, Koji Murakami, Makoto Hiroshige, Kenji Araki, Koji Tochinai

This paper evaluates a direct speech translation Method with waveforms using the Inductive Learning method for short conversation.

Recurrence-free Survival after Radiofrequency Ablation of Hepatocellular Carcinoma. A Registry Report of the Impact of Risk Factors on Outcome (2007)

Zytoon, Ashraf Anas, Ishii, Hiroshi, Murakami, Koji, El-Kholy, Mohamed Ramdan, Furuse, Junji, El-Dorry, Ahmed, ...

Background Despite the high complete necrosis rate of radiofrequency ablation (RFA), tumor recurrence, either local tumor recurrence or new tumor formation, remains a significant problem. Purpose of...

Prospective Study of Positron Emission Tomography for Evaluation of the Activity of Lapatinib, a Dual Inhibitor of the ErbB1 and ErbB2 Tyrosine Kinases, in Patients with Advanced Tumors (2007)

Kawada, Kenji, Murakami, Koji, Sato, Takashi, Kojima, Yoshiki, Ebi, Hiromichi, Mukai, Hirofumi, ...

Background To evaluate the role of FDG-PET in assessing anti-tumor efficacy of molecular targeted drugs, we prospectively performed FDG-PET and CT for response evaluation in patients treated with...

Prospective Study of Positron Emission Tomography for Evaluation of the Activity of Lapatinib, a Dual Inhibitor of the ErbB1 and ErbB2 Tyrosine Kinases, in Patients with Advanced Tumors (2006)

Kawada, Kenji, Murakami, Koji, Sato, Takashi, Kojima, Yoshiki, Ebi, Hiromichi, Mukai, Hirofumi, ...

Background: To evaluate the role of FDG-PET in assessing anti-tumor efficacy of molecular targeted drugs, we prospectively performed FDG-PET and CT for response evaluation in patients treated with...

Diffusion-weighted Single Shot Echo Planar Imaging of Colorectal Cancer Using a Sensitivity-encoding Technique (2004)

Nasu, Katsuhiro, Kuroki, Yoshihumi, Kuroki, Seiko, Murakami, Koji, Nawano, Shigeru, Moriyama, Noriyuki

Background: We wanted to determine the feasibility of diffusion-weighted single shot echo planar imaging using a sensitivity-encoding technique (SENSE-DWI) in depicting colorectal cancer. Methods:...

Inhibition of RXR and PPARγ ameliorates diet-induced obesity and type 2 diabetes

Yamauchi, Toshimasa, Waki, Hironori, Kamon, Junji, Murakami, Koji, Motojima, Kiyoto, Komeda, Kajuro, ...

PPARγ is a ligand-activated transcription factor and functions as a heterodimer with a retinoid X receptor (RXR). Supraphysiological activation of PPARγ by thiazolidinediones can reduce insulin...

Invasiveness of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cell Lines: Contribution of Membrane-Type 1 Matrix Metalloproteinase1

Murakami, Koji, Sakukawa, Rieko, Ikeda, Takashi, Matsuura, Tomokazu, Hasumura, Satoshi, Nagamori, Seishi, ...

Intrahepatic metastasis is one of the malignant features of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Matrix metalloproteoinases (MMPs) and urokinase-type plasminogen activator (u-PA)/plasmin, are known to be...

Solitary Lung Tumors and Their Spontaneous Metastasis in Athymic Nude Mice Orthotopically Implanted with Human Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer1

Yamaura, Takeshi, Murakami, Koji, Doki, Yoshinori, Sugiyama, Shigeki, Misaki, Takuro, Yamada, Yuji, ...

We examined the tumorigenic and metastatic potentials of three human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines. PC-14, A549 or Lu-99 cell lines suspended in Matrigel-containing phosphate-buffered...
