Primordial odontogenic tumor with prominent calcifications: a rare case report
2019
Primordial odontogenic tumor (POT) is a rare odontogenic tumor. It is a new entity in the latest edition of the World Health Organization classification in 2017. In the English-language literature, only 14 cases have been documented. Most POTs show a well-defined unilocular radiolucency surrounding a crown of an unerupted molar, resembling a dentigerous cyst. Microscopically, POT may be difficult to distinguish from odontogenic myxoma, ameloblastic fibroma, hyperplastic dental follicle and dental papilla. Here, we reported a case of POT in a 17-year old female presenting with an asymptomatic bony hard swelling at the left posterior mandible. Interestingly, this case shows unique radiographi…
Three steps to maintain predictable interdental papilla and gingiva emergence profiles in immediate implant placement. A 3-year follow-up case report
2018
We present a case that describes a three-step clinical technique to provide guidelines to replace fractured teeth with immediate implant placement using the same dental structure as a temporary crown and a regenerative approach. This approach predictably maintains the interdental papilla and gingiva emergence profile to ensure a favorable cosmetic result. A 3-year follow-up has shown good clinical outcomes and stability in crestal bone levels. Consequently, this is an innovative way to do temporary crown and design restorations in everyday clinical practice. Key words:Interdental papilla, dental implant, inmmediate implant, gingival aesthetics, dental aesthetics.
Guava (Psidium guajava L.) Leaf Extract as Bioactive Substances for Anti-Androgen and Antioxidant Activities
2022
Leaves of guava (Psidium guajava L.) have been used in Thai folk medicine without any supporting evidence as a traditional herbal remedy for hair loss. Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is chronic hair loss caused by effects of androgens in those with a genetic predisposition, resulting in hair follicle miniaturization. Our objectives were to provide the mechanistic assessment of guava leaf extract on gene expressions related to the androgen pathway in well-known in vitro models, hair follicle dermal papilla cells (HFDPC), and human prostate cancer cells (DU-145), and to determine its bioactive constituents and antioxidant activities. LC-MS analysis demonstrated that the main components of the et…
Light and electron microscopical demonstration of methylene blue accumulation sites in taste buds of fish and mouse after supravital dye injection
1995
Electron microscopical data regarding methylene blue staining of taste buds in the epithelia of the goldfish lip and the cirumvallate papilla of the mouse tongue after supravital dye application are presented for the first time. The ultrastructural details were compared with the corresponding light microscopical findings. The dye was applied in different concentrations by injection or in crystalline from directly to the surface of the tissues. Both methylene blue and tissue were simultaneously fixed by immersion in a paraformaldehyde-glutaraldehyde solution with the addition of phosphomolybdic acid. The ensuing dye precipitate was further stabilized by ammonium heptamolybdate. On the light …
Diagnostic performance of endoscopic ultrasound through‐the‐needle microforceps biopsy of pancreatic cystic lesions: Systematic review with meta‐anal…
2020
Objectives Endoscopic ultrasound through-the-needle biopsy (EUS-TTNB) is a useful tool for differential diagnosis among pancreatic cystic lesions (PCLs). Cystic fluid cytology (CFC) is recommended by guidelines, but its diagnostic accuracy is about 50%. The aim of this meta-analysis is to assess the clinical impact of EUS-TTNB in terms of technical success (TS), histological accuracy (HA) and diagnostic yield (DY). Methods Original studies in English language on EUS-TTNB were searched in MEDLINE and EMBASE until October 2019. Diagnostic accuracy of EUS-TTNB for identification of mucinous PCLs was calculated using individual diagnostic data of patients who underwent CFC and surgery. Results …
The endocytic trafficking pathway of oncogenic papillomaviruses
2019
Over the last two decades many host cell proteins have been described to be involved in the process of infectious entry of oncogenic human papillomaviruses (HPV). After initial binding and priming of the capsid, a sequence of events on the cell surface precedes the formation of the HPV entry platform. It has been shown that the virus-associated entry complex consists of membrane organizers, tetraspanins CD151 and CD63, and their associated partner proteins such as integrins, growth factor receptors, and the annexin A2 heterotetramer. Further recruitment of cytoplasmic factors such as the obscurin-like protein 1 and actin results in a non-canonical clathrin-independent endocytosis of the vir…
Effects of mechanical stimulation on cell cycle duration in rat gingival fibroblast progenitor cells
2001
The aim of this investigation was to estimate cell cycle duration in rat gingival fibroblast progenitor cells in steady-state control and during sustained mechanical stimulation. Elastics (0.15 mm thick) were inserted between maxillary M1 and M2 of 8 wk-old male rats which were labelled with H3-TdR and killed in groups of 6-7 animals together with equal-sized groups of labelled control animals at intervals between 1-168 h. Autoradiographs of consecutive mesio-distal sections were used to determine grain counts for H3-TdR-labelled cells in the connective tissue of the gingival papilla between M2 and M3. Median cell cycle times (MCC) were estimated from plots of mean and median grain counts a…
Veränderung von Inzidenz und Mortalität von Kopf-Hals-Malignomen in Rheinland-Pfalz, 2000–2009
2014
Hintergrund: Epidemiologische Daten zu Kopf-Hals-Malignomen werden trotz ihrer anatomisch-histologischen Heterogenitat oft aggregiert berichtet. In Deutschland gibt es bisher nur wenige Studien, die Trends von Inzidenz und Mortalitat detailliert nach Tumorentitaten analysiert haben. Weiterhin ist wenig daruber bekannt, ob die Inzidenz von HPV-assoziierten Tumorentitaten der Kopf-Hals-Region zugenommen hat. Methoden: Anhand von Krebsregisterdaten aus Rheinland-Pfalz von 2000–2009 wurden altersstandardisierte Inzidenz- und Mortalitatsraten fur alle Kopf-Hals-Tumorentitaten einzeln und nach Lokalisationsgruppen, die HPV-assoziiert sein konnten, berechnet. Zeitliche Trends wurden mittels Joinpo…
Microbiota e HPV nel carcinoma orale
2021
La carcinogenesi è un processo multifattoriale in cui sono coinvolti differenti fattori esogeni; tra questi, il microbiota sembra svolgere un ruolo attivo nei mec- canismi di sviluppo del carcinoma orale [1]. Nella presente trattazione saranno descritti i principali aspetti epidemiologici, clinici e patogenetici che vedono coinvolto il microbiota orale nel processo di carcinogenesi omodistrettuale. A tal proposito, per facilità di trattazione, è stata condotta una distinzione del microbiota orale in due gruppi: microbiota orale batterico e microbiota orale non batterico (i.e. Candida spp, Human Papilloma Virus). Fra i microrganismi appartenenti a quest’ultimo gruppo, verrà condotta una disa…
Augsta riska cilvēka papilomas vīrusa detekcija nieres transplantāta recipientēm ar imūnsistēmas supresiju dinamikā
2018
Šī darba ietvaros ar dāžadām testēšanas metodēm detektēja augsta riska cilvēka papilomas vīrusa (HPV) klātbūtni nieres transplantāta recipienšu vidū, kā arī pētīja vīrusa slodzes un detektējamības izmaiņas periodā no 2 nedēļām līdz 1 gadam pēc transplantācijas. Pētījumā tika iesaistītas 35 nieres transplantāta recipientes un 79 praktiski veselas sievietes kā kontroles grupa. Pētījumā tika izmantotas dzemdes kakla iztriepes un perifērās asinis plazmas izdalīšanai. Iegūtos rezultātus salīdzināja ar kontroles grupu, lai spriestu par imūnsupresēto indivīdu paaugstināto risku HPV infekcijai. Dzemdes kakla iztriepju šūnu suspensijās gan recipienšu, gan kotroles grupas sievietēm HPV DNS sākotnēji …
