Anticancer Res . 2019 Aug; 39(8):4129-4136. PMID: 31366497
Background/aim: 5-Aza-2-deoxycytidine (5-Aza-CdR) enhances the sensitivity to 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), but the molecular mechanism is not fully understood. The aim of this study was to investigate the molecular mechanism that enhances...

Clin Exp Nephrol . 2018 Jul; 23(1):122-134. PMID: 29968125
Background: Ultrafiltration failure associated with peritoneal membrane dysfunction is one of the main complications for patients on long-term peritoneal dialysis (PD). The dialysate-to-plasma concentration ratio (D/P) of creatinine is widely...

Tabata S, Yamamoto M, Goto H, Hirayama A, Ohishi M, Kuramoto T, et al.
Sci Rep . 2018 May; 8(1):6760. PMID: 29713062
Thymidine phosphorylase (TP) is a rate-limiting enzyme in the thymidine catabolic pathway. TP is identical to platelet-derived endothelial cell growth factor and contributes to tumour angiogenesis. TP induces the generation...

Furukawa T, Tabata S, Yamamoto M, Kawahara K, Shinsato Y, Minami K, et al.
Pharmacol Res . 2018 Apr; 132:15-20. PMID: 29604437
Thymidine phosphorylase (TP) is a rate-limiting enzyme in thymidine catabolism. TP has several important roles in biological and pharmacological mechanisms; importantly TP acts as an angiogenic factor and one of...

Tabata S, Yamamoto M, Goto H, Hirayama A, Ohishi M, Kuramoto T, et al.
Cell Rep . 2017 May; 19(7):1313-1321. PMID: 28514652
Thymidine phosphorylase (TP), a rate-limiting enzyme in thymidine catabolism, plays a pivotal role in tumor progression; however, the mechanisms underlying this role are not fully understood. Here, we found that...

Oxid Med Cell Longev . 2017 Jan; 2016:5720574. PMID: 28116036
The Keap1-Nrf2 system is an evolutionarily conserved defense mechanism against oxidative and xenobiotic stress. Besides the exogenous stress response, Nrf2 has been found to regulate numerous cellular functions, including protein...

J Pharmacol Sci . 2015 Apr; 127(3):319-25. PMID: 25837929
Gemcitabine is widely used for pancreatic, lung, and bladder cancer. However, drug resistance against gemcitabine is a large obstacle to effective chemotherapy. Nucleoside transporters, nucleoside and nucleotide metabolic enzymes, and...

Tabata S, Ikeda R, Yamamoto M, Shimaoka S, Mukaida N, Takeda Y, et al.
Oncotarget . 2014 Oct; 5(21):10473-85. PMID: 25350954
Thymidine phosphorylase (TP) promotes angiogenesis and metastasis, and confers resistance to anticancer agents in some cancer cell types. We previously reported that TP stimulates the expression of interleukin (IL)-8 in...

Anticancer Res . 2014 Sep; 34(9):4767-73. PMID: 25202056
A previously established arsenite-resistant cell line, KAS, is also resistant to a variety of anticancer drugs. In order to understand responsible molecules for the multidrug resistance phenotype of KAS cells,...
