Adverse impact of acute Toxoplasma gondii infection on human spermatozoa
Toxoplasma gondii tachyzoites injected intraperitoneally crossed the blood‐testes barrier, appearing in testes/epididymis by day 6 post‐infection. In vitro exposure caused increased sperm necrosis/apoptosis and structural damage to heads/tails. Immunofluorescence and SEM revealed tachyzoites attaching to sperm tails, inducing twisting/detachment, and ...

Dental pulp lymphatic vessel dynamics during tooth development and pulp stimulation in rodents
Abstract Aim The anatomy and functions of lymphatic vessels (LV) in mammals remain poorly understood compared to the blood vascular system. In particular, whether or not LV exist in the dental pulp is still controversial. This study aims to identify the existence of LV in the mouse dental pulp using a Prox1 (Prospero homeobox 1)‐eGFP transgenic mouse ...

The Landscape of SPP1+ Macrophages Across Tissues and Diseases: A Comprehensive Review
SPP1+ macrophages represent a conserved, disease‐associated population present across cancerous and non‐cancerous conditions, involved in immunosuppression, fibrosis, lipid metabolism, phagocytosis, and other cellular processes. This review highlights their shared molecular programmes across tissues, their interactions with stromal and immune cells ...

Chronic silencing of subsets of layer 5 projection neurons has distinct effects on the laminar distribution of PV interneurons and the perineuronal nets in the adult primary motor and somatosensory cortex. Abstract Neural networks are established throughout cortical development, which require the right ratios of glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons ...

Salivary Proteomics for Detecting Novel Biomarkers of Periodontitis: A Systematic Review
Untargeted salivary proteomics identified promising biological molecules consistently over‐ or under‐expressed in periodontitis patients compared to periodontally healthy subjects, but further targeted approaches are required for their validation. ABSTRACT Aim Salivary content is regarded as a powerful diagnostic window for oral and systemic diseases ...
