Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.Male genital lichen sclerosus is driven by chronic, occluded exposure of susceptible genital epithelium to urine, rather than infection or autoimmunity. This review synthesizes clinical, anatomical and molecular evidence showing how microincontinence and occlusion initiate inflammation, fibrosis and carcinogenesis, and explains the curative effect of ...

Tropoelastin and Elastin Assembly
Elastic fibers are an important component of the extracellular matrix, providing stretch, resilience and cell interactivity to a broad range of elastic tissues. Elastin makes up the majority of elastic fibers and is formed by the hierarchical assembly of

Female genital lichen sclerosus
Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.This review provides a comprehensive overview of clinical presentation and emerging evidence supporting a predominantly immune‐mediated pathogenesis characterized by Th1‐skewed inflammation, epithelial dysfunction and progressive fibrosis. Contributory factors including the emerging role for occlusive exposure of susceptible epithelium to urine are ...

Cyclin‐dependent kinase 13 is indispensable for normal mouse heart development
Journal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 616-630, April 2025.Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common defect in live births. The role of cyclin‐dependent kinase (CDK13) in cardiogenesis and CHD was studied using a transgenic mouse model (Cdk13tm1b) carrying deletion of exons 3 and 4, causing loss of function.

Soft Tissue Substitutes: Current Biomaterials and Indications at Teeth and Implant Sites
Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.This manuscript provides an updated overview of the current evidence on soft tissue graft substitutes for teeth and dental implants. When appropriately indicated, these biomaterials offer a reliable, less invasive alternative to autogenous grafts, effectively improving root coverage, keratinized mucosa width, and soft tissue thickness with reduced ...

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.Sixty years after the introduction of dental implants, it is clear that soft‐tissue integration is as essential as osseointegration. This review outlines how peri‐implant soft tissues develop, protect, and sometimes fail, revealing key knowledge gaps and new opportunities to improve long‐term implant stability.
