Concomitant granular cell tumor and balanitis xerotica obliterans of the foreskin: A case report and literature review [PDF]
, 2017 Balanitis xerotica obliterans is a chronic dermatosis that frequently involves the glans penis and the foreskin. Granular cell tumor is a benign tumor that may rarely involve the penis, but involvement of the foreskin is exceedingly rare.

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.In this research, the amniotic membrane is sought to be enhanced biologically by treating it with primary cultured corneal cells. The findings indicate that amniotic membranes conditioned with limbal stem cells serve as an effective wound dressing that mimics corneal tissue, offering better cell adhesion, and healing properties, paving the way for ...

Controlling Drug Release From Supramolecular Polymer Surfaces by a Click‐To‐Release Reaction
Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.We present a strategy combining reactive supramolecular additives with a covalent click‐to‐release reaction for localized drug delivery. A trans‐cyclooctene additive releases a cytotoxic drug upon tetrazine administration. Fluorescent monitoring confirms release, and cytotoxic tests show effective cancer cell death.

Comparison of Surface Features of Ceramic and Ti‐Based Dental Implants
physica status solidi (a), EarlyView.The roughness values of ceramic implants are slightly higher than of the titanium machined sample and significantly lower than of sandblasted implants. The observed structures, along with the roughness values, could enhance the osseointegration of the 3D printed ceramic implants.
