Programmatic regulation of macrophage polarization by HAp@MXene nanocomposites to promote bone repair

BMEMat, EarlyView.
HAp@MXene nanocomposites could achieve the programmed regulation of macrophage polarization. They first induce M1 polarization through magnetoelectric induction to combat infection. Subsequently, controlled Ca2+ release drives M2 polarization to promote tissue regeneration. This dual mechanism accelerates bone defect repair and highlights the potential

Beyond mammals: the evolution of chewing and other forms of oropharyngeal food processing in vertebrates

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

A modified double pedicle graft technique and other mucogingival interceptive surgeries for the management of impacted teeth : A case series

Indian Journal of Dental Research, 2006
Maxillary canine is one of the most common teeth that are impacted. This accounts for 1-2% of all patients who attend orthodontic treatment. The key to achieve maximal eruption of these teeth is their surgical exposure and the role of periodontist

Double‐vestibular incision subperiosteal tunnel access (double‐VISTA) with connective tissue graft for treating multiple gingival recessions: 2‐year follow‐up

Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Gingival recession has a multifactorial etiology, involving various predisposing and precipitating factors. Non‐carious cervical lesions (NCCLs) are often associated with gingival recession and pose challenges due to their complex pathodynamics.

Voclosporin‐induced gingival enlargement: A case report

Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Drug‐influenced gingival enlargement (DIGE) is a recognized adverse effect of certain medications, particularly immunosuppressants like cyclosporin and tacrolimus. However, there have been no documented cases of DIGE associated with voclosporin, a newer calcineurin inhibitor used primarily to treat lupus nephritis.
