Establishment of Epithelial Attachment on Titanium Surface Coated with Platelet Activating Peptide. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
The aim of this study was to produce epithelial attachment on a typical implant abutment surface of smooth titanium. A challenging complication that hinders the success of dental implants is peri-implantitis.

Reticular Basement Membrane Remodelling Regulates Bronchial Epithelial Attachment, Barrier Integrity and Inflammatory Signalling in Asthma [PDF]

Advances in Respiratory Medicine
Asthma is characterized by persistent airway epithelial dysfunction and remodelling of the reticular basement membrane (RBM). In healthy airways, the RBM is primarily composed of the extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins laminin and collagen-IV, but in ...

Myosin IIA motor regulates attaching-effacing bacteria interactions with intestinal epithelium [PDF]

Gut Microbes
Attaching effacing (A/E) bacteria, such as enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) and Citrobacter rodentium colonize intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) by inducing remodeling of the epithelial cytoskeleton and the formation of prominent actin pedestals

Attachment of Human Epithelial Cells to an Anodized Titanium Surface

Materials
The attachment of the oral epithelium to the abutment surface is crucial for the long-term success of dental implants. This study aimed to evaluate the attachment of human epithelial cells to anodized titanium surfaces. Anodized titanium discs were used as the experimental group, while machined titanium discs served as the control.

Gingival epithelium attachment to well- or partially cured resin composites [PDF]

European Cells & Materials, 2020
Ideal restoration material for caries would allow attachment of gingival epithelia. The attachment of epithelial cells to specimens of the 4 most commercially used well- or partially-cured resin composites, with and without TEGDMA, was assessed.

The fungicide Mancozeb reduces spheroid attachment onto endometrial epithelial cells through downregulation of estrogen receptor β and integrin β3 in Ishikawa cells

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021
Mancozeb is a metal-containing ethylene bis-dithiocarbamate fungicide widely used in agriculture. Ethylene thiourea (ETU) is the primary metabolite of Mancozeb.

Artificial intelligence-based analysis of time-lapse images of sphere formation and process of plate adhesion and spread of pancreatic cancer cells

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
Background: Most pancreatic cancers are pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDAC). Spherical morphology formed in three-dimensional (3D) cultures and the effects of anticancer drugs differ between epithelial and mesenchymal PDAC cell lines.
