Paraneoplastic pemphigus involved oral mucosa only: a case report and literature review [PDF]
Frontiers in MedicineParaneoplastic pemphigus (PNP) is a rare and potentially fatal autoimmune disease that primarily affects the mucocutaneous tissues. Here we present the clinical features of a patient with the lichenoid variant of PNP involving the oral mucosa only.

Phenotype and Tissue Residency of Lymphocytes in the Murine Oral Mucosa [PDF]
Frontiers in Immunology, 2017 The oral mucosa is a critical barrier tissue that harbors a series of distinct immune cell subsets. Immune surveillance in the oral mucosa is important for both local and systemic immunity because the oral cavity is a heavily utilized route of pathogen ...

PERMEABILITY OF ORAL MUCOSA [PDF]
British Medical Bulletin, 1975 In discussing permeability, we are describing one of the fundamental barrier functions of oral mucosa. Despite assumptions to the contrary, the oral mucosa is not a uniformly, highly permeable tissue like gut, but shows regional variation. The keratinized areas, such as gingiva and hard palate, are least permeable and nonkeratinized lining areas are ...

Oral Mucosa Models to Evaluate Drug Permeability
Pharmaceutics, 2023 Due to its numerous advantages, such as excellent drug accessibility, rapid absorption, and bypass of first-pass metabolism, the route of drug administration that involves crossing the oral mucosa is highly favored.

Armed to the Teeth—The Oral Mucosa Immunity System and Microbiota
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022 The oral cavity is inhabited by a wide spectrum of microbial species, and their colonization is mostly based on commensalism. These microbes are part of the normal oral flora, but there are also opportunistic species that can cause oral and systemic ...

The Bigger Picture: Why Oral Mucosa Heals Better Than Skin
Biomolecules, 2021 Wound healing is an essential process to restore tissue integrity after trauma. Large skin wounds such as burns often heal with hypertrophic scarring and contractures, resulting in disfigurements and reduced joint mobility.
