Histology and fossil diagenesis of a pterosaur tooth from the Crato Formation (Lower Cretaceous of Brazil)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Pterosaur dental biology remains poorly understood despite its importance for comprehending feeding strategies and flight adaptations. Here, we present the first comprehensive histological analysis of an ornithocheiriform pterosaur tooth from the Lower Cretaceous Crato Formation (Santana Group, Northeast Brazil).

Material properties of periodontal ligaments

open access: yesPostępy Higieny i Medycyny Doświadczalnej, 2013
The mechanism of orthodontic teeth movement is not entirely explained. The principal reaction on tissues at the cellular and molecular level is initiated by the force applied to the tooth crown and transferred in turn upon the periodontal ligament (PDL).

Optimizing biophysical properties of cellular niches to enhance stem cell‐derived extracellular vesicle function in musculoskeletal regeneration

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from stem cells show promise for applications in regenerative medicine, but their scalability and yield remain challenges. This review explores the approaches for biophysical modulations within cell niches on EV properties, discusses the current clinical application of EVs, and provides an outlook on the existing ...

The Analytical Model of the Initial Translational Displacements of the Tooth Root in the Linear Elastic Periodontal Ligament

open access: yesМеханика машин, механизмов и материалов, 2014
The mathematical modeling of the stress-strain state of the periodontal ligament for the translational displacement of the tooth root is carried out. The tooth root is absolutely rigid body and the periodontal ligament has a constant thickness.

Possible Involvement of Leptin in Pathogenesis of Periodontal Disease

open access: yesBiology
Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory condition of the periodontal tissues, ultimately leading to their destruction. The periodontal ligament is a key structure that not only secures the teeth within the alveolus but can also act as a source of ...

Non uniformity: structural strategy for optimizing functionality in skeletal ligaments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Ligaments serve as compliant connectors between hard tissues. In that role, they function under various load regimes and directions. However, the 3D structure of ligaments is still considered uniform.

Black-pigmented anaerobic bacteria associated with ovine periodontitis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017

Exosome as bioactive nanovesicle for diagnostic and therapeutic applications in periodontitis

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
This review introduces the mechanism that exosomes participate in the pathogenesis of periodontitis and their potential as biomarkers for early diagnosis and summarizes the application of cell‐ or plant‐derived exosomes or engineered exosomes in periodontitis or periodontal regeneration while proposing the perspective of translational application of ...

Erythropoietin receptor signal is crucial for periodontal ligament stem cell-based tissue reconstruction in periodontal disease

open access: yesScientific Reports
Alveolar bone loss caused by periodontal disease eventually leads to tooth loss. Periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) are the tissue-specific cells for maintaining and repairing the periodontal ligament, cementum, and alveolar bone.
