Objective: To compare the frequency of periodontal disease in type 1 diabetes mellitus patients with and without metabolic control, having a control group of healthy patients.
Material And Methods: A prolective cross sectional study with simple random sampling was carried out; patients were divided in three groups: A). Forty healthy subjects, B). Twenty diabetic patients with metabolic control, and C). Twenty diabetic patients without metabolic control. The diabetic subjects were evaluated with glycosylated hemoglobin (GHb) to determine the glucose control; clinical periodontal evaluations were performed for all teeth in each subject and following indexes were included: Plaque, gingival, mobility, probing depth, attachment level, bleeding on probing, and marginal bone loss.
Results: The imbalance of glucose of subjects with diabetes mellitus type 1 was associated with more frequency of periodontal disease (p < 0.05).
Conclusion: The population of type 1 diabetes mellitus with imbalance of glucose showed association with periodontal disease.

The emergence of self-propelling magnetic nanobots represents a significant advancement in the field of drug delivery. These magneto-nanobots offer precise control over drug targeting and possess the capability to navigate deep into tumor tissues, thereby addressing multiple challenges associated with conventional cancer therapies. Here, Fe-GSH-Protein-Dox, a novel self-propelling magnetic nanobot conjugated with a biocompatible protein surface and loaded with doxorubicin for the treatment of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), is reported.

Tilapia lake virus (TiLV) disease is highly contagious and causes substantial mortality in tilapia. Currently, no effective treatments or commercial vaccines are available to prevent TiLV infection. In this study, TiLV segment 4 (S4) was cloned into the pET28a(+)vector and transformed into Escherichia coli BL21(DE3).

The cell painting assay is useful for understanding cellular phenotypic changes and drug effects. To identify other aspects of well-known chemicals, we screened 258 compounds with the cell painting assay and focused on a mitochondrial punctate phenotype seen with disulfiram. To elucidate the reason for this punctate phenotype, we looked for clues by examining staining steps and gene knockdown as well as examining protein solubility and comparing cell lines.

Studies of in situ plant response and adaptation to complex environmental stresses, are crucial for understanding the mechanisms of formation and functioning of ecosystems of anthropogenically transformed habitats. We study short- and long-term responses of photosynthetic apparatus (PSA) and anti-oxidant capacity to complex abiotic stresses of common plants Calamagrostis epigejos and Solidago gigantea in semi-natural (C) and heavy metal contaminated habitats (LZ). We found significant differences in leaf pigment content between both plant species growing on LZ plots and their respective C populations.
