Bacterial biofilm in salivary stones [PDF]
To assess the susceptibility of salivary stones to bacterial biofilm formation, which may be involved in the development of salivary gland infection, and to investigate a relation between microbiological aspects and patient characteristics.This prospective study comprises of 54 patients with sialolithiasis attended in Helsinki University Hospital ...

Biochemical composition of salivary stones in relation to stone- and patient-related factors. [PDF]
Salivary stones are calcified structures most often found in the main duct of the submandibular or parotid salivary gland. They contain of a core surrounded by laminated layers of organic and inorganic material.Submandibular and parotid sialoliths (n=155) were collected at the department of Oral and Maxillofacial surgery of a general hospital between ...

Nucleic Acids as Emerging Regulators of Calcium Phosphate Biomineralization. [PDF]
Calcium phosphate biomineralization has traditionally been considered a protein‐regulated process. This review highlights the emerging role of nucleic acids, which interact with mineral phases through adsorption, coprecipitation, and templating, thereby influencing crystal nucleation and growth.

Salivary stones or sialoliths are calcifications that develop primarily in the drainage ducts of a salivary gland and less frequently in the gland itself. The submandibular salivary gland is most frequently affected (84%) and less often the parotid salivary gland (13%).

Submandibular swelling: Tooth or salivary stone?
Submandibular swelling is a common clinical disorder of the maxillo-facial region that may be one of the manifestation of several pathologic disorders including sialolithiasis. A 38-year-old woman experienced a recurrent painful swelling in the right submandibular region for seven years.

Sialolithiasis: An Unusually Large Submandibular Salivary Stone
Salivary stones are termed as sialoliths, and the condition is referred to as sialolithiasis. Pain and swelling in the affected area, especially after eating, occur often. Small, easily accessible stones may be managed with conservative methods, such as milking of ducts, along with palliative care, whereas bigger, more difficult-to-reach stones need ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Lactoferrin promotes wound healing by activating MAPK, PI3K/Akt, and extracellular matrix pathways, enhancing fibroblast remodeling, proliferation, and re‐epithelialization. These mechanisms highlight its therapeutic potential in inflammation control, tissue repair, and remodeling.

Main Raman signals in RNA, related to helical backbone, ribofuranose ring, and nitrogenous bases, are affected by secondary structures that cause hyperchromic effects and significantly alter the Raman intensity. ABSTRACT Raman spectra of RNA nucleotide strands extracted from 20 SARS‐CoV‐2 strains, including the original Japanese isolate, Alpha, Beta ...
