Species of the genus (Thelephorales, Thelephoraceae) are ectomycorrhizal symbionts of coniferous and broad-leaved plants, and some of them are well-known edible mushrooms, making it an exceptionally important group ecologically and economically. However, the diversity of the species from China has not been fully elucidated. In this study, we conducted a phylogenetic analysis based on the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions, using Maximum Likelihood and Bayesian analyses, along with morphological observations of this genus.

Exploring the immune responses of peri-implantitis is key to developing targeted treatment strategies. However, there is limited research on the immune response of peri-implantitis.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: Implant fracture is one of the most serious mechanical complications of dental implants. Conventional treatment necessitates visibility of the apical portion of the fractured implant, whereas for deep and invisible implant fractures, the traditional trephine method has been ineffective. Surgical removal of the marginal bone to expose the fracture surface would be a time-consuming and extensively damaging procedure.

Conventional alternatives such as IAN transposition and various alveolar bone augmentation approaches are technically demanding and prone to complications.
Case Summary: Computer-guided dynamic navigation implantation improves the accuracy, predictability, and safety of implant placement.
Fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP), strongly associated with fragile X syndrome, plays important roles by regulating gene expression via interacting with other RNA binding proteins in the brain. However, the role of FMRP in hypothalamus, a central part responsible for metabolic control, is poorly known. Our study shows that FMRP is primarily located in the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus (ARC).

Various approaches have been developed to augment bone volume. Of these approaches, onlay bone graft, alveolar bone splitting, and guided bone regeneration have been suggested.

Objective: To establish a bioluminescent MDA-MB-231 cell line which can stably express luciferase and green fluorescent protein to allow bioluminescent imaging in nude mouse models bearing human triple-negative breast cancer xenografts.
Methods: The lentivirus carrying luc2, eGFP and neo fusion genes were packaged in 293T cells via calcium phosphate co-precipitation. Human triple-negative breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 was infected by the lentivirus, and the positive cell clones were tested for eGFP and luc2 expressions by fluorescence microscopy and Xenogen IVIS200 bioluminescent imaging system, respectively.

Aim: To construct the recombinant adenoviral vectors expressing human endostatin, K5 and endostatin-K5 gene respectively, and study their bioactivity in vitro.
Methods: Human endostatin, K5 and endostatin-K5 gene were amplified by PCR, which were then subcloned into shuttle vector pAd5-CMV-H1H2-MCS-6His by enzyme and ligation respectively. The positive recombinant plasmids linearized by Pac I were cotransfected into HEK 293 cells with the Pac I linearized adenoviral backbone plasmid using calcium phosphate precipitation method.

Objective: To investigate the height of interdental papillae around single-tooth implants in the anterior maxillae after exposure of implant using crestal rotated flap.
Methods: The study comprised 34 implants in the anterior maxillae from 32 patients. All implants were uncovered by use of crestal rotated flap technique.

Aim: To construct the vector for efficient expression of siRNA using pre-mir30 backbone.
Methods: By chemical synthesis method, pre-mir30 backbone introduced an appropriate restriction enzyme site for foreign shRNA inserting was cloned into an expressing vector containing U6 promoter. The silencing efficiency of a new siRNA expressing vector was detected by transfection and Western blot.
