BPI-fold (BPIF) containing/plunc protein expression in human fetal major and minor salivary glands

Brazilian Oral Research
The aim of this study was to determine expression, not previously described, of PLUNC (palate, lung, and nasal epithelium clone) (BPI-fold containing) proteins in major and minor salivary glands from very early fetal tissue to the end of the second ...

Machine Learning‐Enhanced Clinical Decision Support for Diagnosing Sinusitis With Nasal Endoscopy

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sinusitis is a prevalent disease for which nasal endoscopy (NE) is an optimal diagnostic modality. However, NE accuracy is limited by inter‐operator variability in landmark identification and localization of mucus that is necessary for sinusitis diagnosis. We sought to develop a novel multi‐class machine learning (ML) framework that

A novel carcinogenic mouse model by site‐directed insertion of tandem human HRAS large DNA fragment into 15E1 site

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
The NF‐hHRAS mouse model was generated through Chr15 E1 locus‐targeted integration of a 21 kb multicopy HRAS gene cluster. The NF‐hHRAS model demostrated tissue‐specific expression of human HRAS across multiple organs and low spontaneous tumorigenesis.

Generation of orthotopically functional salivary gland from embryonic stem cells

Nature Communications, 2018
Functional salivary glands have not been generated from embryonic stem cells (mESCs) to date. Here the authors demonstrate directed in vitro differentiation of mESCs to oral ectoderm and salivary gland rudiments that form mature, functional salivary ...

Patterns of interspecific variation in labial microarchitecture among anthropoid primates and the evolution of the hominin lips

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Comparative histological and semi‐automated image analysis of primate lips: Masson's trichrome‐stained sagittal sections were segmented to quantify the connective tissue, adipose, and muscular components, enabling interspecific comparisons of labial architecture.

Salivary Gland Imaging

Journal of the California Dental Association, 2011
Dry mouth, facial swelling, and pain are common signs of salivary gland disorders that may be encountered in the dental practice. Diagnostic imaging can facilitate assessment of patients with these problems. The purpose of this review paper is to discuss the imaging modalities available for assessment of the major salivary glands, their indications ...

Effects of Replacing Alfalfa Hay With Barley Silage in High‐Concentrate Diets: Chewing Behavior, Ruminal Fermentation, Total‐Tract Digestibility, and Milk Production of Dairy Cows in Mid‐Lactation Phase

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
We assessed lactation productivity in dairy cows when replacing alfalfa hay with barley silage. A 50% replacement increased feed intake, whereas total replacement improved nutrient conversion to milk. Barley silage can effectively replace alfalfa hay, enhancing sustainability and resilience in dairy production amid forage quality constraints and market

Mucosal‐Associated Invariant T Cells in Rheumatic Diseases

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Mucosal‐associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are innate‐like T cells defined by their semi‐invariant T cell receptor and restriction by the major histocompatibility complex class I–related molecule (MR1). These cells are primarily activated by microbial‐derived metabolites presented by MR1 or by cytokines.

Sjögren Disease—B Cells at the Brink: From Autoimmunity to Lymphomagenesis and the Rise of Novel B Cell‐Targeted Therapies

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Sjögren disease (SjD) is a common systemic autoimmune disorder characterized by inflammation of the exocrine glands, resulting in dryness. Patients frequently exhibit extraglandular manifestations affecting various organ systems. To date, there are no FDA‐approved disease‐modifying therapies for SjD.
