Characterization of Dental Composite Resin with Additional TiO2 Nanoparticle Filler
Macromolecular Symposia, EarlyView.Silanized SiO2‐based dental composite resins with and without TiO2 nanoparticle addition were fabricated using a Bis‐GMA/TEGDMA resin matrix and photopolymerized under 468‐470 nm UV light. The resulting composites, composite I (55% SiO2) and composite II (50% SiO2 + 5% TiO2), were characterized via scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform ...

Microbiota as the candidate biomarker in pediatric obstructive sleep apnea
Sleep Research, EarlyView.Abstract Pediatric obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a form of sleep‐disordered breathing in children. Recent studies have focused on characterizing microbiota alterations associated with pediatric OSA and identifying microbial features that may have potential value as future biomarkers. The most commonly used approach for microbiota profiling is second‐

A Cytoplasmic pH Sensor Redefines Gating in Bacterial Urea Channels and Acid Resistance
Small, EarlyView.Bacterial survival in acidic environments requires pH‐gated urea channels. Utilizing complementary approaches, we identify a conserved cytoplasmic glutamic acid residue as a pH sensor in UreI channels. Whereas Gram‐positive bacteria rely solely on this sensor, Gram‐negative bacteria employ a dual‐sensor mechanism with periplasmic residues, revealing a ...

Maternal Lead Exposure Induces Glandular Alterations in the Salivary Glands of Rat Male Offspring
Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Lead (Pb) is a widely distributed environmental pollutant that is highly noxious due to its toxicokinetic characteristics. Pb exposure can damage vital organ systems, including the central nervous and stomatognathic systems. As salivary glands play an important role in oral homeostasis, this study aimed to investigate the effects of maternal ...
