1.
Transforming growth factor activating kinase 1 regulates extracellular matrix degrading enzymes and pain-related molecule expression following tumor necrosis factor-α stimulation of synovial cells: an in vitro study
Uchida K, Takano S, Matsumoto T, Nagura N, Inoue G, Itakura M, et al.
BMC Musculoskelet Disord . 2017 Jul; 18(1):283. PMID: 28668088
Background: Recent studies have suggested that the tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) pathway is a potential target for the management of osteoarthritis (OA). Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β-activated kinase 1 (TAK1) is...

Increase and regulation of synovial calcitonin gene-related peptide expression in patients with painful knee osteoarthritis
Takano S, Uchida K, Inoue G, Minatani A, Miyagi M, Aikawa J, et al.
J Pain Res . 2017 May; 10:1099-1104. PMID: 28546767
Background: Recent studies suggest that the vasodilatory neuropeptide calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is localized in the synovial tissue and may be involved in the pathology of hip and knee osteoarthritis...

Expression of calcitonin gene-related peptide in the infrapatellar fat pad in knee osteoarthritis patients
Aikawa J, Uchida K, Takano S, Inoue G, Minatani A, Miyagi M, et al.
J Orthop Surg Res . 2017 Apr; 12(1):65. PMID: 28431586
Background: The infrapatellar fat pad (IPFP) has been implicated as a possible source of osteoarthritis (OA) development and knee pain due to the production of inflammatory mediators and the existence...

Activation of calcitonin gene-related peptide signaling through the prostaglandin E2-EP1/EP2/EP4 receptor pathway in synovium of knee osteoarthritis patients
Minatani A, Uchida K, Inoue G, Takano S, Aikawa J, Miyagi M, et al.
J Orthop Surg Res . 2016 Oct; 11(1):117. PMID: 27751171
Background: Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is a 37-amino-acid vasodilatory neuropeptide that binds to receptor activity-modifying protein 1 (RAMP1) and the calcitonin receptor-like receptor (CLR). Clinical and preclinical evidence suggests that...

Nerve Growth Factor Regulation by TNF-α and IL-1β in Synovial Macrophages and Fibroblasts in Osteoarthritic Mice
Takano S, Uchida K, Miyagi M, Inoue G, Fujimaki H, Aikawa J, et al.
J Immunol Res . 2016 Sep; 2016:5706359. PMID: 27635406
To investigate the role of macrophages as a regulator and producer of nerve growth factor (NGF) in the synovial tissue (ST) of osteoarthritis (OA) joints, the gene expression profiles of...

Two-year results for scoliosis secondary to Duchenne muscular dystrophy fused to lumbar 5 with segmental pedicle screw instrumentation
Takaso M, Nakazawa T, Imura T, Okada T, Toyama M, Ueno M, et al.
J Orthop Sci . 2010 Apr; 15(2):171-7. PMID: 20358328
Background: Instrumentation and fusion to the sacrum/pelvis has been a mainstay in the surgical treatment of scoliosis in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy since the development of the intrailiac post....

Autogenous iliac crest bone graft versus banked allograft bone in scoliosis surgery in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy
Nakazawa T, Takaso M, Imura T, Adachi K, Fukushima K, Saito W, et al.
Int Orthop . 2009 Jun; 34(6):855-61. PMID: 19533124
A total of 36 consecutive nonambulatory DMD patients underwent scoliosis surgery. Patients were divided into two groups: the autogenous iliac crest bone graft group (the ICBG group; 20 patients) and...
