Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Targeting methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus: The comprehensive action of ent-kaurane diterpenoids on bacterial integrity

Virulence
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) represents a considerable challenge to global health owing to its resistance to antibiotics. In our prior research, we identified four ent-kaurane diterpenoids (compounds 1–4) isolated from Siegesbeckia ...

Progress in bone tissue engineering biomaterials: Development, challenges, and prospects

VIEW, EarlyView.
Scheme 1 Application of biomaterials in immunomodulation during bone tissue engineering. Abstract Bone defect repair remains a major clinical challenge in orthopedics. Over 2 million cases caused by trauma, tumors, and other factors occur annually, with large‐scale defects posing a particular bottleneck due to limited self‐healing capacity.

Dupilumab‐Associated Erythema Multiforme‐Like Eruption With Lichenoid Histology in a Paediatric Patient: A Case Report

Australasian Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dupilumab‐associated erythema multiforme and lichenoid eruptions have been previously reported as rare dermatological adverse events. We present an atypical paediatric case of a dupilumab‐associated erythema multiforme‐like eruption in a 5‐year‐old male eczema patient, who developed erythematous targetoid papules and plaques over the upper and

Cryo‐EM structures of multiple‐peptide resistance factor (MprF) from Pseudomonas aeruginosa

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Cryo‐EM analysis of MprF from Pseudomonas aeruginosa reveals a dimeric enzyme, distinct from Rhizobium homologues. The soluble GNAT domain contains a dynamic amphipathic helix (TTH) that adopts different positions in detergent micelle and nanodisc, relative to the membrane.

Platelet‐Rich Fibrins as Local Drug‐Delivery Carriers

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Autologous platelet concentrates (APCs), particularly platelet‐rich fibrin (PRF), act as biologically active fibrin scaffolds, capable of entrapping and gradually releasing therapeutic agents in oral and periodontal therapy. The incorporation of bioactive compounds, such as antibiotics, antifungals, vitamins, antidiabetic drugs, and exosomes, enhances ...

Oral Health, Periodontitis, and Respiratory Diseases: Biological Pathways

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This narrative review aims to provide a comprehensive update on the potential mechanisms by which poor oral health and periodontitis impact lung health, focusing on pneumonia, COPD, and asthma. ABSTRACT Poor oral hygiene and periodontitis influence lung diseases such as pneumonia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), COVID‐19, and asthma.
