Soft‐Tissue Integration of Dental Implants: Formation, Maintenance, and Relevance for Peri‐Implant Health

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Sixty years after the introduction of dental implants, it is clear that soft‐tissue integration is as essential as osseointegration. This review outlines how peri‐implant soft tissues develop, protect, and sometimes fail, revealing key knowledge gaps and new opportunities to improve long‐term implant stability.

Porphyromonas gingivalis GroEL exacerbates orthotopic allograft transplantation vasculopathy via impairment of endothelial cell function

Molecular Oral Microbiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Orthotopic allograft transplantation (OAT) is a significant approach to addressing organ failure. However, persistent immune responses to the allograft affect chronic rejection, which induces OAT vasculopathy (OATV) and organ failure. Porphyromonas gingivalis can infiltrate remote organs via the bloodstream, thereby intensifying the severity ...

Evaluation of biological behavior of odontogenic keratocyst and orthokeratinized odontogenic cyst using picrosirius red stain: A clinicopathological retrospective study

Journal of Dr. NTR University of Health Sciences, 2019
Background: Odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) and orthokeratinized odontogenic cyst (OOC) show considerable difference in biological behavior, and the study of the organization of collagen fibers may be helpful in understanding the nature of these variants ...

Histological image quantification of picrosirius red stained skeletal muscle sections v1

, 2022
Picrosirius Red (PSR) staining of skeletal muscle tissue sections permits histological evaluation of muscle fibrosis: muscle fibres are stained a vivid picric acid yellow, while connective tissue is stained a vibrant Sirius red. Connective tissue can also be visualised via brightfield, fluorescence or polarized light microscopy, but no standard ...

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

Molecular 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.

Photobiomodulation and platelet‐rich fibrin in the gastrocnemius muscle submitted to calcaneal tendinopathy in rats

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
The study evaluated different treatments for calcaneal tendinopathy in rats, focusing on the gastrocnemius muscle. Photobiomodulation (PBM), advanced platelet‐rich fibrin (A‐PRF), and their combination were tested. Treated animals showed improved muscle strength between 7 and 21 days, but without significant recovery of muscle fibers.

The Antimuscarinic Agent Tolterodine Regulates Bladder Extracellular Matrix in Partial Bladder Outlet Obstruction in Rats

Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2018
Background/Aims: Antimuscarinic agents can delay the progression of bladder dysfunction caused by bladder outlet obstruction (BOO). To date, the relationship between muscarinic receptor activity and the bladder extracellular matrix (ECM) remains unclear.

Effects of photobiomodulation therapy on pulmonary inflammation in chronic asthma: Dosimetric study in an experimental model

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) was evaluated across a radiant energy range (1–7.5 J) in a murine model of chronic ovalbumin‐induced asthma to identify the optimal therapeutic dose. PBMT attenuated airway inflammation and remodelling, suppressed Th2 cytokines, and enhanced regulatory immune responses, highlighting a dose‐dependent immunomodulatory ...

Determination of collagen content within picrosirius red stained paraffin-embedded tissue sections using fluorescence microscopy

MethodsX, 2015
Picrosirius red (PSR) staining is a commonly used histological technique to visualize collagen in paraffin-embedded tissue sections. PSR stained collagen appears red in light microscopy.

mTOR blockade prevents progressive proteinuria but induces hyperglycaemia in obese Dahl salt‐sensitive rats before puberty

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Previous studies have demonstrated that mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) activity is significantly increased in the kidneys of Dahl salt‐sensitive (SS) rats during the development of renal injury. Therefore, in the present study we examined whether blockade of mTOR with rapamycin inhibits renal injury in Dahl salt‐sensitive leptin receptor
