4‐Octyl itaconate (4‐OI) attenuates age‐induced parotid gland dysfunction through the suppression of fibrosis and lipid deposition by AMPKα/PPARα and the inhibition of oxidative stress via the AMPKα/Nrf2 signaling pathway. 4‐OI activates AMPKα, which in turn stimulates both the PPARα and Nrf2 pathways. Activation of PPARα enhances FAO and reduces lipid

ABSTRACT Epulis fissuratum (EF) is a reactive fibrous overgrowth in the oral vestibule caused by chronic denture irritation. We describe two patients (aged 58 and 42 years) in whom EF was excised and vestibuloplasty performed using a free gingival graft (FGG) harvested from the excised lesion itself.

Iron and Other Metal Ions in Human Health and Disease
Iron, copper, zinc, and calcium orchestrate cellular function through distinct yet cooperative mechanisms: redox‐active iron and copper cycle between oxidation states to act as Fenton catalysts and electron carriers in oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS); redox‐inert zinc serves as a structural component of zinc‐finger proteins and a catalytic cofactor ...
