Treatment of prepubertal periodontitis. A case report and discussion.

1992

Abstract This paper reports the treatment of prepubertal periodontitis in a 3–year-old girl with Papillon-Lefevre Syndrome. Initially, the patient was found to have a myeloperoxidase deficiency and microbiological tests have identified Bacteroides and Fusobacterium, in 60% and 25%, respectively of the total number of microbial flora cultivated. The initial treatment was extraction of all the primary teeth with grade 3 mobility, scaling, root planing and daily subgingival irrigation with a 0.2% solution of chlorhexidine. Several months before the eruption of the first permanent molars, the rest of the primary teeth were extracted. The patient was treated with daily subgingival irrigation of …

Lingual nerve injury after third molar removal: Unilateral atrophy of fungiform papillae

2014

Background: Pain and sensory changes due to lingual nerve injury are one of the most common alterations that follow surgical removal of third molar. They are usually transient but other less common complications, such as the atrophy of fungiform papillae, have an uncertain prognosis. Case Description: We report a case of a 34-year-old woman who presented a unilateral lingual atrophy of fungiform papillae after third molar extraction accompanied by severe dysesthesia that altered her daily life significantly during the following months and how this complication evolved over time. We conducted a literature review on the different factors that can lead to a lingual nerve injury. Clinical Impli…

Studies on the function of PRDM9 in model systems and its evolution during vertebrate divergence shed light on the basic molecular mechanisms of hybrid sterility and its evolutionary consequences. However, information regarding PRDM9-homolog, PRDM7, whose origin is placed in the primate evolutionary tree, as well as information about the fast-evolving DNA-binding zinc finger array of strepsirrhine PRDM9 are scarce. Thus, we aimed to narrow down the date of the duplication event leading to the emergence of PRDM7 during primate evolution by comparing the phylogenetic tree reconstructions of representative primate samples of PRDM orthologs and paralogs. To confirm our PRDM7 paralogization patt…

Human papillomavirus: Its identikit and controversial role in oral oncogenesis, premalignant and malignant lesions (Review)

2007

Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) are a group of host-specific DNA viruses, with a remarkable epithelial cell specificity: they have been reported principally in the ano-genital tract, urethra, skin, larynx, tracheo-bronchial and oral mucosa. More than 100 different HPV types have been identified and classified as high (e.g. 16, 18, 31) or low (e.g. 11, 42, 36) -risk (HR and LR), based on their association with cervical carcinoma. The carcinogenic role of HR-HPV revolves mainly around two of its oncoproteins: HPV-E6 which promotes degradation of the p53 tumour suppressor gene product and HPV-E7 which modifies the pRb tumour suppressor gene product, inhibiting the activity of TGF-beta2. Since th…

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2010-04-01 Verruciform xanthoma (VX) is a relatively rare benign lesion and oral predominantly, which occasionally affects skin and genital mucosa. It appears as a papule or single plaque showing a verrucous or papillomatous aspect, with variable color from reddish pink to gray. In majority of oral cases, it affects gingiva and alv…

Papildinātās realitātes spēles mobilām ierīcēm dizaina izstrādes principi

2018

Diplomdarba tēma ir “Papildinātās realitātes spēles mobilām ierīcēm dizaina izstrādes principi”. Darba teorētiskajā daļā tiek apskatīts videospēļu rašanās un dizaina attīstība, spēļu pasaules dizaina veidošanas principi (spēles elementi, mehānika, krāsu izvēle), populārākie un mūsdienu tehnoloģijas, un lietotāja saskarne. Empīriskajā daļā tiek izpētīts spēles “Čūska” dizaina evolūcija, sakot no 1970. gadā veidotiem spēlēm līdz mūsdienīgām. Diplomdarba mērķis ir izpētīt, kādas ir vēsturiskas izmaiņas spēļu dizainā ar tehnoloģijas izmaiņu, ka arī dizaina raksturīgākos spēļu dizaina principus formulēšana. Radošajā daļā tiek izstrādāts dizaina projekts “Papildinātās realitātes spēle “Čūska” diz…

Unvolvement of calcium signaling and MAP kinases in lipid taste perception

2013

In this work, we demonstrate that stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1), a sensor of Ca2+ depletion in the endoplasmic reticulum, mediates fatty acid–induced Ca2+ signaling in the mouse tongue and fat preference. We showed that linoleic acid (LA) induced the production of arachidonic acid (AA) and lysophosphatidylcholine (Lyso-PC) by activating multiple phospholipase A2 isoforms via CD36. This activation triggered Ca2+ influx in lingual CD36-positive taste bud cells (TBCs) purified from mouse CVP. LA also induced the production of Ca2+ influx factor (CIF). STIM1 was found to regulate LA-induced CIF production and the opening of store-operated Ca2+ (SOC) channels. Furthermore, CD36-positive…

Analysis of the infectious entry pathway of human papillomavirus type 33 pseudovirions.

2002

AbstractHuman papillomavirus type 33 (HPV-33) pseudovirus infection is a slow process dependent on the initial interaction with cell-surface heparan sulfate (T. Giroglou, L. Florin, F. Schafer, R. E. Streeck, and M. Sapp, 2001a, J. Virol. 75, 1565–1570). We have now further dissected the initial steps of pseudovirus uptake using removal of cell-surface proteoglycans and selective inhibition of entry pathways. Treatment of cells with heparinase I, but not with phosphoinositol-specific phospholipase C (PIPLC), prevented binding of papillomavirus-like particles and infection with HPV-33 pseudovirions, indicating that GPI-linked proteoglycans (glypicans) are not required for productive infectio…
