Effective Apical Infection of Differentiated Human Bronchial Epithelial Cells and Induction of Proinflammatory Chemokines by the Highly Pneumotropic Human Adenovirus Type 14p1. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Only a few pneumotropic types of the human adenoviruses (e.g. type B14p1) cause severe lower respiratory tract infections like pneumonia and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) even in immunocompetent patients.

Recent Advances in Apical Periodontitis Treatment: A Narrative Review
Bioengineering, 2023 Apical periodontitis is an inflammatory response caused by pulp infection. It induces bone resorption in the apical and periapical regions of the tooth. The most conservative approach to treat this condition is nonsurgical endodontic treatment.

New insight into Epstein-Barr virus infection using models of stratified epithelium.
PLoS Pathogens, 2023 Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a ubiquitous human pathogen that is transmitted in saliva. EBV transits through the oral epithelium to infect B cells, where it establishes a life-long latent infection. Reinfection of the epithelium is believed to be mediated

Scientific Reports, 2022 Airway organoids are polarized 3D epithelial structures that recapitulate the organization and many of the key functions of the in vivo tissue. They present an attractive model that can overcome some of the limitations of traditional 2D and Air–Liquid ...

Association between Endodontic Infection, Its Treatment and Systemic Health: A Narrative Review
Medicina, 2022 The ‘Focal Infection Era in Dentistry’ in the late 19th and early 20th century resulted in widespread implementation of tooth extraction and limited the progress of endodontics.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2021 Significance Measles virus (MeV) is highly infectious by the respiratory route, but respiratory epithelial cells are thought to be resistant to infection through the exposed apical surface and to require infection through the basolateral surface. We show
