Influence of shade of adhesive resin cement on its polymerization shrinkage

Biotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2016
Resin cements have the ability to bond to the tooth structure and to several indirect restorative materials and they are available in different transparency and shades. However, polymerization shrinkage remains to be a problem that leads to gap formation

Upconversion particle-assisted NIR polymerization enables microdomain gradient photopolymerization at inter-particulate length scale

Nature Communications, 2023
High crosslinking and low shrinkage stress are difficult to reconcile in the preparation of performance-enhancing photopolymer materials. Here we report the unique mechanism of upconversion particles-assisted NIR polymerization (UCAP) in reducing ...

Reduction of polymerization shrinkage in adhesive restaurations [PDF]

AFMN Biomedicine, 2018
<p>Composite materials used for the restoration of lost dental tissues fulfill almost all functional and aesthetic requirements. However, polymerization shrinkage still remains the main problem of light-curing composite resins. The consequences of this phenomenon are microfractures and microleakage in the marginal areas of the composite ...

TRAIL‐PEG‐Apt‐PLGA nanosystem as an aptamer‐targeted drug delivery system potential for triple‐negative breast cancer therapy using in vivo mouse model

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aptamers are used both therapeutically and as targeting agents in cancer treatment. We developed an aptamer‐targeted PLGA–TRAIL nanosystem that exhibited superior therapeutic efficacy in NOD/SCID breast cancer models. This nanosystem represents a novel biotechnological drug candidate for suppressing resistance development in breast cancer.

Polymerization shrinkage-stress of short fiber-reinforced composite

Fogorvosi Szemle, 2022
Background: Polymerization shrinkage-related stress of dental composite materials is a clinically relevant problem. In the presence of proper adhesion, shrinkage produces stress in the remaining tooth structure.

Dual PI3K/AKT and CDK4/6 inhibition reveals selective sensitivity in an SHH medulloblastoma stem cell model

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Targeted therapy was evaluated in SHH medulloblastoma using neuroepithelial stem cell (NES) and tumor‐derived NES‐like (tNES) models in 2D monolayers and 3D spheroids. PI3K, AKT, and CDK4/6 inhibitors had minimal effects in NES but markedly reduced viability and growth and induced apoptosis in tNES cells, revealing distinct therapeutic vulnerabilities.

Stimulator of interferon genes agonist augmented antitumor immunity of osimertinib in Egfr‐mutated lung cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Combining osimertinib with the STING agonist ADU‐S100 activates innate and adaptive immunity to overcome the non‐inflamed microenvironment of Egfr‐mutant lung cancer. This combination increases NK and CD8+ T‐cell infiltration, associated with activation of the STING‐IRF3 pathway and local immunogenic cell death.

Powder Optimization Strategies for Binder Jetting Printing of BaTiO3 and Ba0,6Sr0,4TiO3 Ceramics

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Powder optimization is investigated to enable binder jetting of BaTiO3 and Ba0.6Sr0.4TiO3 ferroelectric ceramics. The antagonistic relationship between flowability and binder compatibility is addressed through binder impregnation of granulated powders and fumed silica addition to fine powders.
