Oral and dental status in children with intestinal failure: A descriptive cross‐sectional study

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Children with intestinal failure often experience feeding difficulties and complex daily care needs, yet their oral and dental health remains underexplored. We aimed to describe oral and dental health characteristics in pediatric intestinal failure.

The Unfolded Protein Response in Amelogenesis and Enamel Pathologies

Frontiers in Physiology, 2017
During the secretory phase of their life-cycle, ameloblasts are highly specialized secretory cells whose role is to elaborate an extracellular matrix that ultimately confers both form and function to dental enamel, the most highly mineralized of all ...

WDR72 Drives Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Progression by Inhibiting Autophagy via the PI3K/Akt/mTOR Pathway

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is an aggressive malignancy with a high rate of recurrence and metastasis, necessitating the identification of novel therapeutic targets. WD repeat‐containing protein 72 (WDR72) has been linked to various cancers, but its specific biological function and underlying mechanism in ESCC remain largely ...

Crucial Roles of microRNA-16-5p and microRNA-27b-3p in Ameloblast Differentiation Through Regulation of Genes Associated With Amelogenesis Imperfecta

Frontiers in Genetics, 2022
Amelogenesis imperfecta is a congenital disorder within a heterogeneous group of conditions characterized by enamel hypoplasia. Patients suffer from early tooth loss, social embarrassment, eating difficulties, and pain due to an abnormally thin, soft ...

Estrogen and bisphenol A affect male rat enamel formation and promote ameloblast proliferation.

Endocrinology, 2014
International audienceBisphenol A (BPA) is a widespread endocrine disrupting chemical (EDC) strongly suspected to have adverse health effects. Numerous tissues and cells are affected by BPA, and we showed recently that BPA targets include ameloblasts and

Histological analysis of incremental markings and crown growth characteristics in mandibular first molars of the red fox, Vulpes vulpes (Canidae, Mammalia)

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
This paper histologically analyzed incremental markings in dental enamel of red fox and grey wolf. Our results demonstrate that previous studies have misidentified these markings, which led to miscalculation of dental growth parameters. Abstract The present study analyzed incremental markings in the enamel of eight mandibular first molars (M1) of red ...

Focal Adhesion Kinase Expression in Ameloblastoma: A Preliminary Observational Study [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2017
Introduction: Focal Adhesion Kinase (FAK) is a membraneassociated molecule, which plays a major role in tumourigenesis by promoting cell survival, proliferation, migration, and invasion.

Ameloblastic Carcinoma of the mandible [PDF]

Journal of Maxillofacial and Oral Surgery, 2010
Odontogenic carcinomas are rare lesions arising from dental embryogenic residues and have been designated by a variety of terms like malignant ameloblastoma, ameloblastic carcinoma, metastatic ameloblastoma or primary intra-alveolar epidermoid carcinoma. Ameloblastic carcinoma combines the histological features of ameloblastoma with cytological atypia,

Localized Periodontitis in Young Individuals: Aggregatibacter JP2 Clone, Immunological Dysfunctions and Other Stories

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This review describes the features of grade C molar‐incisor pattern periodontitis and discusses the role of A. actinomycetemcomitans in its pathogenesis and why molars and incisors are preferably affected. Possible future studies on this aggressive disease in primary and permanent dentition and emerging omics techniques for diagnosis and management are

Localization of Transcription Factor AP-1 Family Proteins in Ameloblast Nuclei of the Rat Incisor

, 2000
We examined by immunocytochemistry the localization of the AP-1 family proteins c-Jun, JunB, JunD, c-Fos, FosB, Fra-1, and Fra-2 in rat incisor ameloblasts. Most of the antibodies against AP-1 family proteins, except for c-Fos-specific antibody, labeled
