Unilateral mastication‐induced memory deficits linked to disrupted hippocampal cholesterol metabolism in rats

VIEW, EarlyView.
Unilateral mastication, a common oral habit, induces cognitive decline in rats by disrupting hippocampal cholesterol metabolism. It triggers astrocyte hyperplasia, enhances cholesterol synthesis, impairs transport/degradation, and reduces 24‐hydroxycholesterol (24‐OHC), ultimately damaging synaptic function.

Masticatory Situation by Food-taking Ability in the Community Elderly.

The Japanese Journal of Nutrition and Dietetics, 1999
高齢者の食生活に影響を及ぼす咀嚼能力について検討するために, 地域高齢者に対して食品の摂取可能状況に関するアンケート調査を実施し, 以下の結果が得られた。1) 年齢と残存歯数との間に危険率0.1%以下で有意な関連がみられた。2) 一部義歯を含めて義歯を有している者は88.5%であり, 総義歯 (総入れ歯) は全体の43%であった。3) 残存歯数と咀嚼時の不自由感の関連をみると, 残存歯数0本の者より残存歯数5～10本の者が最も不自由感を感じており, 次いで1～4本の者であった。4) 硬さの異なる35食品を5群に分け, 各食品群の摂取可能率を算出した。その結果, 1群から5群まで軟らかいものから硬いものへと摂取可能率は低下しており, 咀嚼能力を反映していた。5) 摂取可能率が60 ...

Piezo‐type mechanosensitive cation channel 1 in bone biomechanics and its multidimensional distribution characteristics in skeletal tissue

VIEW, EarlyView.
PIEZO1 is highly correlated with mechanical stimulation, controlling bone growth and remodeling, while showing specific distribution characteristics under distinct loads. Upon dialectical review, this manuscript proposes that PIEZO1 could serve as a target for osteoporosis and a quantitative indicator for monitoring bone health in real‐time.

125 years of exploration and research at Gough's Cave (Somerset, UK) 125 ans d'exploration et de recherches à Gough's Cave (Somerset, Royaume‐Uni)

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Our understanding of the recolonization of northwest Europe in the period leading up to the Lateglacial Interstadial relies heavily on discoveries from Gough's Cave (Somerset, UK). Gough's Cave is the richest Late Upper Palaeolithic site in the British Isles, yielding an exceptional array of human remains, stone and organic artefacts, and butchered ...
