A Case of Sialolithiasis in a Minor Salivary Gland of the Buccal Mucosa [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2016
Sialolithiasis is a common disease of the major salivary glands. In contrast, Sialolithiasis of Minor Salivary Glands (SMSG) is very rare. Only 2% of all cases of sialolithiasis develop in minor salivary glands and sublingual glands.

Investigating heterogeneous PSMA ligand uptake inside parotid glands [PDF]

open access: yesPhysica Medica: European Journal of Medical Physics, 2024
The purpose was to investigate the spatial heterogeneity of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography (PET) uptake within parotid glands. We aim to quantify patterns in well-defined regions to facilitate further investigations.

Modeling the Biophysical Effects in a Carbon Beam Delivery Line using Monte Carlo Simulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Relative biological effectiveness (RBE) plays an important role in designing a uniform dose response for ion beam therapy. In this study the biological effectiveness of a carbon ion beam delivery system was investigated using Monte Carlo simulation. A carbon ion beam delivery line was designed for the Korea Heavy Ion Medical Accelerator (KHIMA) project.

Long non‐coding RNAs as therapeutic targets in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and clinical application

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs) occupy an abundant fraction of the eukaryotic transcriptome and an emerging area in cancer research. Regulation by lncRNAs is based on their subcellular localization in HNSCC. This cartoon shows the various functions of lncRNAs in HNSCC discussed in this review.

TA-Net: Topology-Aware Network for Gland Segmentation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Gland segmentation is a critical step to quantitatively assess the morphology of glands in histopathology image analysis. However, it is challenging to separate densely clustered glands accurately. Existing deep learning-based approaches attempted to use contour-based techniques to alleviate this issue but only achieved limited success. To address this

Neuronal in vitro impact of Amblyommaamericanumsalivary glands extracts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
When a tick feeds off a host, the salivary glands of the tick excrete saliva to assist the tick in feeding (1). The reason saliva assists the tick in consuming its blood meal is due to its immunosuppressive, anti-inflammatory, and anti-coagulant ...

Antibacterial effects of natural compounds on biofilm formation of Streptococcus mutans

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Dental Research, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1426-1433, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Streptococcus mutans is the main cariogenic pathogen in the oral cavity, considered to contribute toward oral diseases. S. mutans is predominantly entrapped in plaque biofilms. Objectives In this study, we surveyed the antibacterial activity of natural compounds in terms of the biofilm production of S. mutans. Material and Methods We extracted
