Loss of Twist1 leads to disruption of ciliary length, endocytic vesicle dynamics, and cell–cell junctions during neural tube formation

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Endocytosis constitutes a fundamental cellular process governing development through coordinated regulation of plasma membrane remodeling and ciliogenesis, processes essential for cell shape changes and tissue development. Although Twist1 null embryos display complete cranial neural tube (NT) closure defects and conditional knockout

Effects of Rapid Maxillary Expansion on Upper Airway Airflow Characteristics: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis [PDF]

International Journal of Scientific Research in Dental and Medical Sciences
Background and aim: After rapid maxillary expansion, there is evidence that nasal airflow resistance is reduced. In the developmental age, it is unclear how RME affects upper airway airflow characteristics.

Membrane lipid metabolism as a regulatory frontier in neural crest biology: Roles for sphingolipids, cholesterol, and lipid rafts

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Neural crest cells are multipotent, migratory stem‐like cells essential for vertebrate development that contribute broadly to many tissues including the craniofacial skeleton, peripheral nervous system, and pigment‐producing cells. Their development progresses through phases of induction, specification, delamination, migration, and ...

Analysis of factors associated with the success of microimplant-assisted rapid palatal expansion

, 2023
Introduction: Success-related factors of microimplant-assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE) were evaluated, including age, palatal depth, suture, and parassutural bone thickness, suture density and maturation, and the relation to corticopuncture (CP ...

Orthodentine‐osteodentine and osteocytic‐anosteocytic transition inferred from Silurian stem chondrichthyan dermal jawbones with ever‐white teeth overgrown by brown denticles

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The dentigerous jawbones of a 423‐million‐year‐old stem chondrichthyan (ischnacanthid acanthodian) carry a characteristic combination of multi‐row non‐shedding white teeth with brownish overgrowing denticles. The color distinction makes it a good model for observing the interaction between two odontode lineages, but the nature of ...

Bacteremia in horses undergoing routine dental prophylaxis: Before, during, and after the procedure

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Transient bacteremia after dental procedures is well‐documented in the literature, but the prevalence and clinical significance in horses remains largely unexplored. Objectives To assess whether routine dental prophylaxis in clinically healthy horses is associated with detection of bacteria in blood, using culture and 16S rDNA ...

Incidence and Site‐Specific Risk Factors of Jaw Osteoradionecrosis for Head and Neck Patients in the IMRT/VMAT Era: Evidence From a Large, Hospital‐Based Cohort

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Osteoradionecrosis (ORN) of the jaw remains a serious late complication of head and neck cancer (HNC) radiotherapy. Although intensity‐modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) and volumetric‐modulated arc radiotherapy (VMAT) are expected to reduce ORN risk, large real‐world data in the modern era are limited.

Fixed versus Removable Appliance for Palatal Expansion; A 3D Analysis Using the Finite Element Method.

Frontiers in Dentistry, 2014
Several appliances have been used for palatal expansion for treatment of posterior cross bite. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the stress induced in the apical and crestal alveolar bone and the pattern of tooth displacement following expansion ...
