Newly identified intervertebral fat pad degenerates after intervertebral disc injury in a rat model of degeneration

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
This study characterizes a newly‐described intervertebral fat pad (IVFP) anterior to rat IVDs, with evidence for its existence in mice and human IVDs as well. In rats, the IVFP gradually degenerated following IVD injury with changes in adipocyte size and fibrous tissue infiltration, suggesting it could play a functional role in IVD health and ...

Soft Tissue Substitutes: Current Biomaterials and Indications at Teeth and Implant Sites

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This manuscript provides an updated overview of the current evidence on soft tissue graft substitutes for teeth and dental implants. When appropriately indicated, these biomaterials offer a reliable, less invasive alternative to autogenous grafts, effectively improving root coverage, keratinized mucosa width, and soft tissue thickness with reduced ...

Porphyromonas gingivalis GroEL accelerates abdominal aortic aneurysm formation by matrix metalloproteinase‐2 SUMOylation in vascular smooth muscle cells: A novel finding for the activation of MMP‐2

open access: yesMolecular Oral Microbiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Infection is a known cause of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), and matrix metalloproteases‐2 (MMP‐2) secreted by vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) plays a key role in the structural disruption of the middle layer of the arteries during AAA progression.

Platelet ‐ Rich Fibrin in the Management of Oro‐Antral Communications and Fistulas: A Systematic Review of Systematic Reviews

open access: yesOral Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Oroantral communication (OAC) and fistulas (OAF) are pathological openings between the maxillary sinus and the oral cavity. Traditional closure methods, such as buccal or palatal flaps, are effective but can cause postoperative discomfort and tissue loss.
