Smart Coatings Integrating Antimicrobial and Tissue‐Remodeling Functions for Implant Interfaces

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of a dental implant system showing inflammation around a non‐coated abutment (left) and a stimuli‐responsive coated abutment (right). Acidification associated with inflammation triggers degradation of the PMAA‐based coating, enabling controlled antibiotic release from the LbL system and combating bacterial infection.

Inflammation and mechanical force‐induced bone remodeling

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Periodontitis arises from imbalanced host–microbe interactions, leading to dysbiosis and destructive inflammation. The host's innate and adaptive immune responses produce pro‐inflammatory mediators that stimulate destructive events, which cause loss of alveolar bone and connective tissue attachment.

Understanding exosomes in facial esthetics and skin aging

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Skin aging is a multifactorial process mediated by intrinsic (genetic and metabolic) and extrinsic (environmental) factors leading to functional and structural deterioration, including wrinkles, loss of collagen and elastin, as well as various pigmentation disorders.

From maturation to degeneration: Distinct biological trajectories in bicuspid and tricuspid aortopathy

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ascending thoracic aortic aneurysm formation differs fundamentally between patients with bicuspid (BAV) and tricuspid (TAV) aortic valve phenotypes, yet current clinical management largely relies on shared diameter thresholds, although clinical and scientific data fail to correlate with diameter and risk of rupture.

Enhancing colonic anastomotic healing with a novel melatonin‐loaded PLGA matrix

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Anastomotic leakage continues to be a severe and prevalent complication in colorectal surgery, leading to elevated morbidity and mortality rates despite modern advancements in surgical and perioperative care. To address this persistent clinical challenge, the aim of the present study was to engineer a biocompatible poly(lactic‐co‐glycolic acid)

Computational modelling of cardiac fibroblast signalling reveals a key role for Ca2+ in driving atrial fibrillation‐associated fibrosis

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A pre‐existing fibroblast signalling model was enhanced by integrating atrial‐specific components and reactions linked to atrial fibrosis and atrial fibrillation (AF). The analysis highlights the central role of Ca2⁺ signalling in driving profibrotic responses to AF‐relevant stimuli, angiotensin‐II and transforming growth factor ...

The role of extracellular vesicles in cell–cell crosstalk in cardiotoxicity

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Administration of a pharmacological agent can result in off‐target cardiotoxicity which can be driven by cell–cell crosstalk between healthy and dysfunctional cardiac cells. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are lipid bilayer structures that can move biological cargo between cells, facilitating cell–cell crosstalk.

Human‐derived cardiac‐neural microtissues reveal catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia is also a disease of the sympathetic neuron

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic diagram illustrating the proposed pathway in which regulatory defects might occur in sympathetic neurons derived from hiPSC in catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT). Specifically, enhanced calcium transients appeared to derive from three sources: enhanced membrane excitability (due to loss of ...

Cancer‐associated fibroblast heterogeneity across solid and haematological malignancies: Lessons from colorectal cancer and multiple myeloma

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend CAF origins and plasticity give rise to distinct phenotypes with immunosuppressive functions in colorectal cancer and multiple myeloma. These distinct CAF phenotypes contribute to immunosuppressive tumour microenvironments through ECM remodelling, cytokine signalling and immune regulation.
