A Multifunctional β‐Defensin‐3 Mimetic Peptide Modulates Host–Biofilm Interactions and Reduces Bone Loss in Periodontitis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
BDMP, a peptide that can penetrate cells and tissues, offering antimicrobial and anti‐inflammatory effects, has been identified as a potential new therapy for periodontitis. ABSTRACT Aim This study evaluated the potential of a beta‐defensin‐3 mimetic peptide (BDMP), a synthetic cell‐penetrating peptide with antimicrobial and immunomodulatory properties,

Cis‐urocanic acid formation following far‐UVC exposure and associated signaling responses in keratinocytes

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Far‐UVC (200–235 nm) has emerged as a safe and effective indoor disinfection tool, but effects on skin immunomodulation remain unclear. This study demonstrates that 222 nm far‐UVC converts trans‐urocanic acid (UCA) to its biologically active cis isomer at levels comparable with solar radiation. In keratinocytes, far‐UVC alone caused modest increases in

Comparative Response of Canine and Human Osteosarcoma Tumour Cell Lines to Molecularly Targeted Anticancer Agents at Clinically Relevant Exposures With Analysis of Genomic Biomarkers

Veterinary and Comparative Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Osteosarcoma (OSA) is a primary bone tumour occurring in children but is also prevalent in large breed dogs. Canine OSA (cOSA) has long been viewed as analogous to human OSA (hOSA) with cOSA serving as a surrogate for development of therapeutic approaches to treat the rarer human form.

Circadian-Related Serotonin/Melatonin Level Modulates Cisplatin Ototoxicity Susceptibility Depended on NOS3-NO Pathway. [PDF]

J Pineal Res
ABSTRACT Hearing impairment is attributed to factors such as age, genetic predisposition, and environmental influences, among which environmental factors are considered modifiable. Among various environmental factors, the role of poor lifestyle habits is particularly critical, yet the specific mechanisms by which they contribute to hearing damage ...

Skeletal muscle‐specific myostatin overexpression promotes muscle oxidative capacity and fatigue resistance in transgenic mice

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract In addition to controlling muscle mass, myostatin may support oxidative metabolism and endurance. Loss of function through gene knockout or post‐natal blockade generally lowers muscle oxidative capacity and increases fatigability. These observations imply that myostatin activation could promote a more oxidative and less fatigable muscle ...
