Abnormal nitric oxide (NO) synthesis has been implicated in the pathogenesis of both periodontal disease and diabetes mellitus. In diabetic patients, increased inducible NO synthase in inflamed gingiva correlated with NO in gingival crevicular fluid. Although increased NO reflected more-severe inflammation, it was associated with reductions in CFU of Prevotella intermedia, a major periodontopathogen, highlighting dual roles for NO.

Inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) is a promising therapy for a variety of pulmonary conditions but is limited by the cost, portability, and safety limitations of the compressed gas cylinders used in conventional iNO delivery systems. On-demand generation of iNO via thermally controlled decomposition of an NO-genic precursor is an attractive alternative to systems based on compressed gas cylinders. However, most NO-releasing materials, which would form the basis of such a system, are designed for in vivo applications, and not gas flow release at elevated temperatures.

Drug resistance and cancer recurrence are major cause of Cervical cancer (CC) patient mortality. Cisplatin (CDDP) is the major drug that has been extremely used in all stages in treating CC, although relapse and malignant instances have been observed as a result of cisplatin resistance in CC. In the present study, we established Cisplatin resistant CC HeLa cell line model and the cytotoxic effects of Andro as a single agent or in combination with CDDP were investigated to assess its potential as a chemotherapeutic agent in cisplatin-resistant HeLa (CisR-HeLa) cells.

Background: Titanium (Ti) biomaterials are widely used in the surgical management of maxillofacial trauma, in oncology and orthognathic surgery. Although Ti is considered highly biocompatible, adverse reactions at the implant site have been reported in numerous clinical studies. However, the influence of Ti mandibular implants on glutathione metabolism, nitrosative stress and systemic inflammation has not been investigated to date.

Background: Data on type 2 (T2)-low severe asthma (SA) frequency is scarce, resulting in an undefined unmet therapeutic need in this patient population. Our objective was to assess the frequency and characterize the profile and burden of T2-low SA in Greece.
Methods: PHOLLOW was a cross-sectional study of adult SA patients.

Objective: Caveolae are closely linked to the onset and progression of atherosclerosis. The pivotal involvement of caveolin-1 (CAV1) within the caveolae in atherosclerosis development has been consistently supported. However, the potential contributions of additional caveolae proteins to atherosclerosis necessitate further exploration.
