BMJ case reports ·doi:10.1136/bcr-2025-271171

We present the third case of subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) during dienogest (DNG) therapy documented in Japan. A woman in her 40s with a history of smoking and a family history of SAH developed a sudden severe headache and was diagnosed wi…

The bicellular tight junction molecule cingulin (CGN) binds to microtubules in centrosomes. Furthermore, CGN contributes to the tricellular tight junction (tTJ) proteins lipolysis-stimulated lipoprotein receptor (LSR) and tricellulin (TRIC)…

Tissue barriers ·doi:10.1080/21688370.2024.2304443

It is known that there are abnormalities of tight junction functions, cell migration and mitochondrial metabolism in human endometriosis and endometrial carcinoma. In this study, we investigated the effects of growth factors and their inhib…

Tissue barriers ·doi:10.1080/21688370.2022.2106113

Lipolysis-stimulated lipoprotein receptor (LSR), a lipid metabolism-related factor localized in tricellular tight junctions (tTJs), plays an important role in maintaining the epithelial barrier. LSR is highly expressed in well-differentiate…

Cancers ·doi:10.3390/cancers13246341

Tight junction proteins play roles beyond permeability barriers functions and control cell proliferation and differentiation. The relation between tight junctions and the signal transduction pathways affects cell growth, invasion and migrat…

International journal of molecular sciences ·doi:10.3390/ijms20143555

Maintaining a robust epithelial barrier requires the accumulation of tight junction proteins, LSR/angulin-1 and tricellulin, at the tricellular contacts. Alterations in the localization of these proteins temporarily cause epithelial barrier…

Scientific reports ·doi:10.1038/srep37049

Lipolysis-stimulated lipoprotein receptor (LSR) is a unique molecule of tricellular contacts of normal and cancer cells. We investigated how the loss of LSR induced cell migration, invasion and proliferation in endometrial cancer cell line …

Oncotarget ·doi:10.18632/oncotarget.8408

Lipolysis-stimulated lipoprotein receptor (LSR) has been identified as a novel molecular constituent of tricellular contacts that have a barrier function for the cellular sheet. LSR recruits tricellulin (TRIC), which is the first molecular …

Hinyokika kiyo. Acta urologica Japonica

Ureteral endometriosis is a rare but important clinical problem that requires early detection and treatment. The urinary tract is affected in approximately 2% of women with endometriosis. Even though the bladder is the most frequent urinary…

We examined 194 cases of uterine leiomyoma and adenomyosis who received total abdominal hysterectomy, in order to compare the effect of presurgical medical treatment such as with Buserelin, Danazol and Pill, on operative blood loss with non…
