Autoimmunity and Periodontitis
In a microbe‐driven inflammatory environment, peptidyl‐arginine deiminase (PAD) enzymes from neutrophils and Porphyromonas gingivalis citrullinate both microbial and self‐antigens. B cell presentation of citrullinated or self‐mimicking epitopes activates T cells that assist B cells in antibody isotype switching, affinity maturation, epitope spreading ...

Oral Health, Periodontitis, and Respiratory Diseases: Biological Pathways
This narrative review aims to provide a comprehensive update on the potential mechanisms by which poor oral health and periodontitis impact lung health, focusing on pneumonia, COPD, and asthma. ABSTRACT Poor oral hygiene and periodontitis influence lung diseases such as pneumonia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), COVID‐19, and asthma.

Treatment of metal laminas with sharp edges at arbitrary angles to the FDTD grid using MAMPs
Previous enhancements to the FDTD method have facilitated the analysis of structures containing sharp metal edges, such as microstrip, when the edges are aligned with the mesh and also of smooth, arbitrarily curved metal objects.

Plant immunity by damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs)
Recognition by plant receptors of microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) and pathogenicity effectors activates immunity. However, before evolving the capacity of perceiving and responding to MAMPs and pathogenicity factors, plants, like animals ...

Evaluation of the elicitor properties of ergosterol obtained from residual brewing yeast [PDF]
Sustainable agriculture requires solutions that combine cost-effectiveness and environmental safety. One of such approach is the use of biological pesticides for plant protection, which reduce dependence on synthetic chemicals, minimize environmental ...

ABSTRACT Introduction Bone‐anchored maxillary protraction (BAMP) has been increasingly used to correct midface deficiency and Class III malocclusion in patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP). However, its three‐dimensional (3D) effects on the mandible remain insufficiently explored.

The branchial plume (p) of Ridgeia exchanges metabolites with the environment. The plume lacks symbionts but may still use PRRs to interact with microorganisms found in the surrounding vent fluid and seawater.

Identification of receptor complex components and receptor activation mechanisms in plant innate immunity [PDF]
Plants rely on an innate immune system which successfully recognizes and restricts pathogenic microbes. The key for this defense is the detection of pathogen derived non-self signatures and endogenous elicitors released during a microbial attack.

Host Pathogen Interactions: Is Arabidopsis thaliana remembered by its Nemesis Pseudomonas syringae? [PDF]
Plants contain innate immune systems that deter pathogen infection. Pattern recognition receptors bind microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs), triggering immunity.

ABSTRACT Objective This retrospective study evaluated three‐dimensional effects of hybrid hyrax‐mentoplate (HH‐M) orthopaedic treatment in high‐angle Class III individuals using Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) images. Materials and Methods Pre‐treatment (T0) and post‐treatment (T1) CBCTs of 17 fully compliant high‐angle Class III patients (7 males,
