Harnessing the Therapeutic Potential of Cell Secretomes and Extracellular Vesicles for Craniofacial Regenerative Applications

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
The scoping review summarizes the current preclinical and clinical evidence for the use of “cell‐free” therapies in craniofacial (periodontal, bone and soft‐tissue) regeneration. It also aims to highlight key challenges and strategies towards the clinical translation of these therapies.

Detection of the Hyaluronan Receptor CD44 in the Bovine Oviductal Epithelium

open access: yesJournal of Reproduction and Development, 2005
Hyaluronan is involved in fundamental reproductive events such as sperm storage in the female reproductive tract, fertilization, and early embryo development, these functions are presumably mediated by its major cell surface receptor, CD44. The present study was conducted to investigate the presence and localization of CD44 in the bovine oviductal ...

Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Distinct Molecular Signatures Between Erosive and Non‐Erosive Oral Lichen Planus

open access: yesOral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To identify molecular mechanisms distinguishing the erosive subtype of oral lichen planus (EOLP) from the non‐erosive subtype (NEOLP) through transcriptomic analysis. Methods We analysed bulk RNA‐seq data from 30 buccal mucosa samples (13 EOLP, 17 NEOLP) using differential expression, Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA ...

Crohn’s Disease Fibroblasts Overproduce the Novel Protein KIAA1199 to Create Proinflammatory Hyaluronan FragmentsSummary

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2016
Background & Aims: Crohn’s Disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the gastrointestinal tract. Fibrosis, a serious complication of CD, occurs when activated intestinal fibroblasts deposit excessive amounts of extracellular matrix (ECM) in ...

The High‐Intensity Zone: A Dynamic Inflammatory Hub in Lumbar Disc Degeneration

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
The HIZ, a dynamic inflammatory hub in lumbar disc degeneration, links inflammation‐degeneration‐pain; integrating advanced diagnostics and targeted therapies offers precise management for discogenic low back pain. ABSTRACT The lumbar intervertebral disc high‐intensity zone (HIZ), a focal hyperintensity within the annulus fibrosus on T2‐weighted ...

Hyaluronic acid metabolism and chemotherapy resistance: recent advances and therapeutic potential

open access: yesMolecular Oncology
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a major component of the extracellular matrix, providing essential mechanical scaffolding for cells and, at the same time, mediating essential biochemical signals required for tissue homeostasis.

Layilin: a multifunctional hyaluronan receptor in physiology and pathology

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology
Layilin (encoded by LAYN ), a C-type lectin transmembrane receptor, serves as a critical molecular bridge between extracellular matrix (ECM) sensing and intracellular signaling through its interaction with cytoskeletal adaptors. Initially identified for its cytoskeletal functions, layilin has

Understanding exosomes in facial esthetics and skin aging

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Skin aging is a multifactorial process mediated by intrinsic (genetic and metabolic) and extrinsic (environmental) factors leading to functional and structural deterioration, including wrinkles, loss of collagen and elastin, as well as various pigmentation disorders.

Impacts of Hyaluronan on Extracellular Vesicle Production and Signaling

open access: yesCells
Hyaluronan (HA) is a critical component of cell and tissue matrices and an important signaling molecule. The enzymes that synthesize and process HA, as well as the HA receptors through which the signaling properties of HA are transmitted, have been ...
