PLoS One . 2024 Sep; 19(9):e0309981. PMID: 39240983
Background: Oscillometry devices (also termed forced oscillation technique) devices such as MasterScreen-IOS® (Jaeger, Hochberg, Germany) and MostGraph-01® (Chest, Tokyo, Japan) are useful for obtaining physiological assessments in patients with obstructive...

Sandhu Y, Harada N, Harada S, Nishimaki T, Sasano H, Tanabe Y, et al.
Curr Issues Mol Biol . 2023 Nov; 45(11):8907-8924. PMID: 37998736
The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway is involved in the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and asthma; however, the role of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 19 (MAP3K19) remains uncertain. Therefore,...

Allergy Asthma Clin Immunol . 2021 Apr; 17(1):36. PMID: 33789748
Background: Although Japanese radish (Raphanus sativus L.) is a common Japanese ingredient, there are few reports of IgE-mediated immediate food allergy caused by Japanese radish. Case Presentation: A 48-year-old woman...

Takeshige T, Harada N, Harada S, Ishimori A, Katsura Y, Sasano H, et al.
Allergol Int . 2021 Feb; 70(3):343-350. PMID: 33640239
Background: Previous reports have shown that pathogen-associated patterns (PAMPs) induce the production of interleukin (IL)-1β in macrophages. Moreover, studies using mouse models also suggest that chitin, which acts as a...

Matsuno K, Harada N, Harada S, Takeshige T, Ishimori A, Itoigawa Y, et al.
Exp Lung Res . 2019 Jan; 44(7):332-343. PMID: 30676129
Aim Of The Study: In patients with asthma, chronic inflammatory processes and the subsequent remodeling of the airways contribute to the symptoms and the pathophysiological changes. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is...

Yasuda M, Harada N, Harada S, Ishimori A, Katsura Y, Itoigawa Y, et al.
Allergy Asthma Clin Immunol . 2018 Nov; 14:72. PMID: 30473714
Background: Extracellular matrix proteins tenascin-C (TNC) and periostin, which were identified as T-helper cell type 2 cytokine-induced genes in human bronchial epithelial cells, accumulate in the airway basement membrane of...

J Asthma . 2018 Oct; 56(2):167-172. PMID: 30335533
Background: Fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FE) is useful for the evaluation of eosinophilic airway inflammation, including that seen in asthma. Although a new electrochemical hand-held FE analyzer, the NIOX VERO...

Respir Investig . 2016 Jan; 54(1):14-9. PMID: 26718140
Background: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have been successfully used to treat patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring EGFR mutations. However, despite an initial...

J Asthma . 2015 Sep; 53(2):207-12. PMID: 26325232
Objective: Treatment guidelines for asthma recommend step-down therapy for well-controlled asthma patients. However, the precise strategy for step-down therapy has not been well defined. We investigated whether well-controlled patients with...

Exp Lung Res . 2015 Jul; 41(7):370-82. PMID: 26151756
Background:  Macrophages include the classically activated pro-inflammatory M1 macrophages (M1s) and alternatively activated anti-inflammatory M2 macrophages (M2s). The M1s are activated by both interferon-γ and Toll-like receptor ligands, including lipopolysaccharide...
