Genome-Wide RNA Sequencing of Human Trabecular Meshwork Cells Treated with TGF-β1: Relevance to Pseudoexfoliation Glaucoma

Biomolecules, 2022
Pseudoexfoliation glaucoma (XFG) is an aggressive form of secondary open angle glaucoma, characterised by the production of exfoliation material and is estimated to affect 30 million people worldwide.

Association Between Hypomineralisation of Second Primary Molars and Tooth Agenesis

International Journal of Paediatric Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Hypomineralisation of second primary molars (HSPM) is an enamel defect with a multifactorial and potentially genetic aetiology. While the association between enamel defects and dental anomalies is a relatively recent area of investigation, it has not yet been explored specifically in cases of HSPM.

Inflammatory and Immunological Basis of Periodontal Diseases

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
The periodontal lesion emerges as an evolving immunological battlefield, where host–microbiome interactions, dysregulated immune responses, fragile resolution mechanisms, and inflammophilic dysbiosis converge to shift the balance from homeostasis to unrestrained tissue destruction.

Osteoporosis and Periodontitis: Two‐Way Epidemiological and Mechanistic Evidence

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This review investigates the main mechanistic pathways connecting local periodontitis to systemic osteoporosis. Seven interconnected mechanisms are identified. ABSTRACT Osteoporosis and periodontitis are highly prevalent, chronic inflammatory diseases that constitute a major global health burden.

Transient expression of Wnt5a elicits ocular features of pseudoexfoliation syndrome in mice.

PLoS ONE, 2019
PURPOSE:Pseudoexfoliation (PEX) syndrome is an age-related systemic disease with ocular manifestations. The development of animal models is critical in order to elucidate the cause of the disease and to test potential treatment regimens.

Early oxidation‐related changes in aqueous humor following eye exposure to ultraviolet‐A radiation

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
UVA exposure induces early oxidative alterations in the aqueous humor, disrupting its antioxidant balance. Levels of ascorbic acid, reduced glutathione (GSH), and the GSH/GSSG ratio decrease, while oxidized glutathione (GSSG), S‐glutathionylated proteins (PSSG), and malondialdehyde (MDA), a lipid peroxidation by‐product, increase.
