Clinical Evaluation of Soft Tissue Augmentation Techniques around Early Implant Placement in the Maxillary Aesthetic Zone [PDF]

Minia Journal of Medical Research
Background: Peri-implant soft tissue volume is critical for esthetic success in the anterior maxilla. Subepithelial connective tissue grafts (SCTG) are the gold standard but cause palatal donor-site morbidity, whereas xenogeneic collagen matrices (XCM ...

The role of gingival connective tissue in determining epithelial differentiation

, 1975
Free grafts of connective tissue, without epithelium, were transplanted from either the keratinized gingiva or the nonkeratinized alveolar mucosa (controls) into areas of the alveolar mucosa in 7 monkeys.

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses

Metastatic niche shaped by host factors influences disseminated cancer cell fate

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Metastasis is shaped not only by cancer cells but also by the environments they encounter. This review explores how factors such as aging, diet, the microbiome, lifestyle, and environmental exposures remodel organ‐specific niches in the lung, liver, bone, and brain, influencing where metastatic cells survive, remain dormant, or grow, and ultimately ...

Tissue integration and vascularization of volume collagen matrices and connective tissue grafts following peri-implant soft tissue augmentation: a secondary histological analysis [PDF]

This study aimed to histologically reanalyze tissue integration and vascularization of volume collagen matrices (VCMX) and subepithelial connective tissue grafts (SCTG) at 3 and 4 months following peri-implant soft tissue augmentation.

Prevascularization promotes endogenous cell-mediated angiogenesis by upregulating the expression of fibrinogen and connective tissue growth factor in tissue-engineered bone grafts

Stem Cell Research & Therapy, 2018
Background Vascularization is one of the most important processes in tissue-engineered bone graft (TEBG)-mediated regeneration of large segmental bone defects.

Evaluation of Connective Tissue Grafts Versus Free Gingival Grafts

International Journal of Research in Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2020
Root coverage is one of the important aims of periodontal therapy. The aim of the study was to evaluate the connective-tissue grafts (CTG) and free gingival grafts (FGG) in root coverage procedures. A retrospective study of sample size 32 was conducted. These patients underwent a root coverage procedure done using grafts. The details on which graft was
