Hematology Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that explores the causes and treatment of intractable blood diseases through both basic research and clinical practice.

AboutAbout the lab
Uncovering the causes of blood diseases and turning new treatments into reality
The lab conducts research aimed at clarifying the causes of hematologic diseases, which are intractable, and developing new treatments.
One pillar of its research is basic research on the mechanisms of red blood cell differentiation, hematopoietic stem cells, and leukemia.
The other pillar is clinical research, in which the lab carries out a prefecture-wide registry and survey study of malignant lymphoma and also takes part in multicenter collaborative studies and investigator-initiated clinical trials.
The lab places importance on using its own research to clarify the causes that could not be resolved in the clinic and the treatments that the clinic needed, and to turn them into reality.
Key terms
- Hematopoietic stem cell
- The source cell that gives rise to blood cells such as red blood cells and white blood cells
- Prognostic prediction model
- A tool built from a patient's clinical information to predict the future course of a disease
- Investigator-initiated clinical trial
- A clinical trial planned and conducted by physicians themselves to confirm the efficacy and safety of a new drug or medical device

ResearchResearch themes
Aiming to elucidate the causes of hematologic diseases and develop new treatments, the lab has basic research and clinical research as its two pillars. The lab holds that clinical research on disease epidemiology, new drugs, and medical devices is essential to apply findings from basic research to actual treatment.
*Illustrative imageBasic research on hematologic diseases
The lab aims to clarify the causes of hematologic diseases through a wide range of themes, including regulatory mechanisms of erythroid differentiation, transplant immunology, molecular mechanisms of leukemia onset, and the cell biology of hematopoietic stem cells.
*Illustrative imageClinical research on malignant lymphoma
The lab carries out a prefecture-wide registry and survey study of malignant lymphoma, and uses the clinical information and specimens collected to build prognostic prediction models and identify new prognostic factors. It also actively takes part in multicenter collaborative studies and investigator-initiated clinical trials.
