Genetic Susceptibility to Periodontitis
Aim: The aim of this narrative review was to identify genes carrying risk alleles associated with an increased risk of periodontitis and to place them in a biological context. Methods: The literature was reviewed based on predefined criteria. Results: The identified genes largely fall into functions linking immune response with tissue repair. The genes

Toll Like Receptor 4: A Potential Link Between Obesity and Metabolic Diseases
ABSTRACT Epidemiological evidence shows that obesity increases the risk of developing metabolic diseases. Nevertheless, the mechanisms behind this connection remain underappreciated. The substantial impact of these disorders on global health has led to extensive research efforts aimed at identifying the pathophysiological links between them.

Obesity is widely recognized as a pro‐thrombotic condition, yet the specific biomarker profile reflecting coagulation activation remains incompletely defined. Obesity is associated with increased coagulation activation, particularly in children, suggesting an early pro‐thrombotic shift.

Innovations in Obesity Treatment: Beyond Adipose Tissue Dysfunction
Obesity drives chronic inflammation, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and cancer development through adipocyte dysfunction. Addressing this multisystemic disorder requires integrated strategies beyond diet and exercise, such as thermogenesis activation via menthol or capsinoids and appetite control through GLP‐1/GIP agonists and neuromodulation to ...

Plasminogen Activator in Epidermal Homeostasis.
Increased plasminogen activator activity has been correlated with cell migration and tissue remodelling. The epidermis is a dynamic stratified tissue requiring both cell migration and tissue remodelling to maintain homeostasis. This correlation suggested

Periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis—Global efforts to untangle two complex diseases
Abstract Understanding the impact of oral health on rheumatoid arthritis (RA) will inform how best to manage patients with both periodontitis and RA. This review seeks to provide an update on interventional and mechanistic investigations, including a brief summary of European Research programs investigating the link between periodontitis and RA. Recent
