Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) play an important role in regulating tumor progression by transferring exosomes to neighboring cells. Our aim was clarify the of microRNA encapsulated derived from CAFs oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC).We examined expression profiles and donor-matched normal (NFs) patients with OSCC. We used confocal microscopy examine transportation exosomal miR-34a-5p between OSCC Next, luciferase reporter its mutant plasmids were confirm direct target gene...
Attainment of spatial resolutions far below diffraction limits by means optical methods constitutes a challenging task. Here, we design nonlinear nanorulers that are capable accomplishing approximately 1 nm utilizing the mechanism plasmon-enhanced second-harmonic generation (PESHG). Through introducing Au@SiO2 (core@shell) shell-isolated nanoparticles, strive to maneuver electric-field-related gap modes such reliable relationship between PESHG responses and sizes, represented "PESHG...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects butt margin, occlusal thickness and pulp chamber extension depth on stress distributions mandibular molar endodontically treated teeth (ETT) with EMAX endocrown restoration using 3-dimensional finite element analysis (FEA). FEA models flat surface or curve margin were firstly evaluated distributions, then 9 1-, 2- 3-mm generated margin. In all models, a 200 N vertical load horizontal applied, von Mises (VMS) evaluated. results showed that...
Abstract Aim The purpose of this study was to investigate the role calcium‐sensing receptor (CaSR) in angiogenic differentiation lipopolysaccharide (LPS)‐treated human dental pulp cells (hDPCs). Methodology LPS‐induced hDPCs were cultured medium with different combinations CaSR agonist R568 and antagonist Calhex231. cell proliferation, migration, capacity measured by Cell Counting Kit‐8 (CCK‐8), scratch wound healing, tube formation assays, respectively. Enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay...
Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) play an important role in regulating tumor progression by subverting the microenvironment. CAFs secrete soluble molecules and various extracellular vesicles, including exosomes, to communicate with cells. However, specific roles of exosomes secreted microenvironment are unclear. In present study, we performed microRNA (miRNA) sequencing derived from matched normal (NFs) patients oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). We observed a significant reduction...
Abstract A thin endocrown restoration was often applied in endodontically treated teeth with vertical bite height loss or inadequate clinical crown length. model of mandibular molars made by 1 mm thickness and 2 depth pulp chamber constructed imported into FEA ANSYS v18.0 software. The three CAD/CAM materials, feldspathic (Mark2), lithium disilicate (EMAX) lava ultimate (LU), were assigned, the five load indenters loaded on full occlusal (FO), center (OC), central fossa (CF), buccal groove...
Objective To investigate the effects of a probiotic drink containing Lactobacillus casei strain Shirota on dental plaque microbiota. Methods Caries-free young adults were administered L. (Yakult) three times day 1, then once daily for 28 days. Dental samples collected and analysed by 16S rRNA sequencing before (day 1), during 2), one following intervention 30). Results Out from 10 included participants, 256 814 sequences passed through quality control, clustered into 170–234 different...
This study evaluated the cyclic fatigue resistance for six types of 25# NiTi instruments. A traditional manufacturing instrument, an M wire a gold treatment controlled memory (CM) CM instrument with electrical discharge machining (EDM), and R-phase heat were operated in different curved artificial canals. The fracture time (FT) number cycles to (NCF) instruments higher at 45° angles double-curvature canals than 60° angles. Except technology EDM technology, others showed longest FT highest...

Material used in flexible devices may experience anisotropic strain with identical magnitude, outputting coherent signals that tend to have a serious impact on device reliability. In this work, the surface topography of nanoparticles (NPs) is proposed be parameter control performance gauge based tunneling behavior. contrast monolayer spherical NPs, electron urchin-like NPs actually exhibits nearly isotropic response different loading orientations. Isotropic caused by interlocked pikes these...
In this paper, the Ti6Al4V alloy surface was modified via ceramic conversion treatment (CCT) with or without a pre-deposited silver layer. After characterizing morphologies, microstructure and phase constituents of oxide layer formed at 620 °C, we investigated hardness cross-sectional nano-hardness profile under The static load-bearing capacity layers examined by applying discrete loads Vickers indenter observing indentations. A scratch test used to evaluate adhesion/cohesion layers....
Objective To evaluate the apical surgery-related anatomy of two-rooted and three-rooted mandibular first molars (MFMs) in a Mongoloid population. Methods A total 502 cone-beam computed tomographic images were used to root configuration, distance from buccal bone each root, dimensions, complete resection at level for roots MFMs. Results The prevalence MFMs was 85.1% 14.9%, respectively. At level, mesial distal 2.24 3.15 mm, respectively, while 2.44, 2.01, 8.55 mm mesial, distobuccal,...
