Abstract Purpose To explore the impact of zirconia types, coloring methods, and surface finishing on the color stability of monolithic multilayered polychromatic zirconia after artificial aging, including thermocycling and simulated toothbrushing. Materials and Methods Eighty square‐shaped zirconia samples were divided into 2 types (M3Y‐TZP and M6Y‐PSZ)

Peptide-conjugated phosphodiamidate oligomer-mediated exon skipping has benefits for cardiac function in mdx and Cmah-/-mdx mouse models of Duchenne muscular dystrophy. [PDF]
Cardiac failure is a major cause of mortality in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Antisense-mediated exon skipping has the ability to correct out-of-frame mutations in DMD to produce truncated but functional dystrophin.

Zika virus surveillance post‐epidemic in blood donors from São Paulo, Brazil 2016–2020
Abstract Introduction Zika virus (ZIKV) is primarily transmitted through the bite of the Aedes aegypti mosquito, though transmission via blood transfusion has also been documented. During the 2015 ZIKV epidemic in Brazil, severe complications were observed in pregnant women, leading to fetal microcephaly. This study evaluated the persistence of ZIKV in

Lack of Dystrophin Affects Bronchial Epithelium in mdx Mice [PDF]
Mild exercise training may positively affect the course of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD). Training causes mild bronchial epithelial injury in both humans and mice, but no study assessed the effects of exercise in mdx mice, a well known model of DMD ...

O camundongo mdx desenvolve distrofia muscular recessiva ligada ao cromossoma X (locus Xp21.1) e não expressa distrofina. Embora não apresente intensa fibrose do tecido muscular e acúmulo de tecido adiposo, é considerado o modelo animal mais adequado da ...

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a lethal disorder of skeletal muscle caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene. Adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector-mediated gene therapy is a promising approach to the disease. Although a rod-truncated microdystrophin gene has been proven to ameliorate dystrophic phenotypes, the level of microdystrophin expression

Abstract Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is characterized by respiratory muscle injury and weakness, ultimately leading to respiratory failure. Impaired respiratory muscle performance, fibrosis and inflammation in early disease are evident in the dystrophin‐deficient mdx mouse model of DMD.

Derived Koszul Duality and Involutions in the Algebraic K-Theory of Spaces
We interpret different constructions of the algebraic $K$-theory of spaces as an instance of derived Koszul (or bar) duality and also as an instance of Morita equivalence. We relate the interplay between these two descriptions to the homotopy involution.
