Genetic risk variants implicate impaired maintenance and repair of periodontal tissues as causal for periodontitis—A synthesis of recent findings

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
AbstractPeriodontitis is a complex inflammatory disease in which the host genome, in conjunction with extrinsic factors, determines susceptibility and progression. Genetic predisposition is the strongest risk factor in the first decades of life. As people age, chronic exposure to the periodontal microbiome puts a strain on the proper maintenance of ...

Correlations between amyloid-β peptide levels in aqueous humor and retinal thickness in patients with glaucoma

Scientific Reports
Amyloid-β (Aβ) accumulation is a well-established cause of neurotoxicity in the brain and a major factor in Alzheimer’s disease. However, its role in ocular neurodegeneration remains unclear.

Understanding exosomes in regenerative dentistry

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Regenerative dentistry is shifting from cell‐based strategies to cell‐free biologics capable of orchestrating intricate tissue repair. Exosomes, nanosized extracellular vesicles carrying bioactive molecular payloads, have emerged as central modulators of intercellular communication.

Animal models of exfoliation syndrome, now and future.

, 2014
At present, no animal models fully embody exfoliation syndrome or exfoliation glaucoma. Both genetic and environmental factors appear critical for disease manifestation, and both must be considered when generating animal models.

The Baboon as a Model to Study Human Health and Complex Disease

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 88, Issue 9, September 2026.
Baboons remain underappreciated as models of human biology and disease offering a distinct combination of biological and practical properties. In this review, we evaluate the baboon as a model for human complex diseases and make the case for broader use of baboons in translational research.
