Epigenetic Dysregulation of the NKX2‐1/SPDEF Axis Drives Persistent Goblet Cell Differentiation and Epithelial Barrier Dysfunction in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

open access: yesRespirology, EarlyView.
This study investigated airway epithelial barrier dysfunction persistence in ex‐smokers with COPD and underlying mechanisms using single‐cell RNA and ATAC sequencing. Epigenetic NKX2‐1/SPDEF dysregulation maintains goblet cell hyperplasia and barrier dysfunction despite long‐term smoking cessation.

Techniques for fabrication of temporary dental restorations

open access: yes, 2019
Introduction: Temporary restorations are an important part of modern prosthodontic treatment. Temporaries are made nearly exactly like the final restoration while protecting from mechanical, thermal, chemical and biological irritations and improving the patient esthetics and function. They are beneficial in diagnostics and treatment planning.

Harnessing energy metabolism for enhanced bone defect repair: Mechanisms and therapeutic strategies

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
This review addresses the critical challenge of bone defect repair by focusing on the underexplored role of cellular energy metabolism. It synthesizes regulatory mechanisms in bone‐forming cells and sums up innovative strategies—leveraging cell derivatives, active factors, and biomimetic scaffolds—to modulate metabolism for enhanced regeneration.

Molar incisor hypomineralisation: current knowledge and practice

open access: yesInternational Dental Journal, EarlyView., 2020
Background Molar incisor hypomineralisation (MIH) is a common developmental dental condition that presents in childhood. Areas of poorly formed enamel affect one or more first permanent molars and can cause opacities on the anterior teeth. MIH presents a variety of challenges for the dental team as well as functional and social impacts for affected ...

The Therapeutic Potential of Farm Dust Extracts in a Mouse Model of Eosinophilic Inflammation

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
Farm dust extract (FDE) treatment reduces airway eosinophilia, mucus overproduction, and MHC‐II expression on DCs, limiting antigen presentation and Th2 inflammation. It increases PD‐L1 on DCs, promoting T cell deactivation. Additionally, FDE enhances Tregs and upregulates CTLA‐4, reinforcing suppression.

Model‐Based Cost‐Effectiveness of Direct Restorations: Amalgam Dominates

open access: yesCommunity Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives A phase‐down of dental amalgam use has been mandated and the feasibility of its phase‐out in England by 2030 is being explored. Amalgam use in English National Health Service (NHS) care still predominates for posterior restorations, though access to this care is increasingly limited.
