The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of proliferating tissue used in combination with bovine-derived xenograft (BDX) on the formation of new cementum and bone in dogs. Intrabony defects were treated with either BDX in conjunction with autogenous proliferating tissues (BDXplus-proliferating tissues: BDX-P group) or BDX alone (BDX-alone group). The control group received no BDX or proliferating tissues. The animals were sacrificed after 2, 4, and 8 weeks of the treatment, and tissues were histologically examined. Specimens from the control group were characterized by long junctional epithelium and little bone formation. The BDX-P group showed a statistically significant increase in new bone and cementum formation compared to the BDX-alone group (30.9% vs. 18.7, p < 0.01 and 87.8% vs. 61.8, p < 0.01). The ratio of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA)-positive cells in the newly formed connective tissue of the BDX-P group was significantly greater than that in the BDX-alone group. These findings suggest that the use of proliferating tissues in combination with BDX enhances new bone and cementum formation, offering potential as therapeutic material in periodontal regeneration.

AITL is associated with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-positive B cells in most cases, suggesting a possible role for the virus in the pathobiology of AITL. Cell lines from AITL patients do not exist and models of human AITL are needed.

Unlabelled: Engineered three-dimensional (3D) tissue culture platforms are useful for reproducing and elucidating complex in vivo biological phenomena. Spheroids, 3D aggregates of living cells, are produced based on physicochemical or microfabrication technologies and are commonly used even in cancer pathology research. However, conventional methods have difficulties in constructing 3D structures depending on the cell types, and require specialized techniques/lab know-how to reproducibly control the spheroid size and shape.

We report a green approach to prepare carbon dots (CDs) with fresh tomatoes as carbon sources and amino acids as dopants (ACDs) by a microwave assisted method. The synthesised CDs were analysed by UV-visible absorption spectroscopy, photoluminescence spectroscopy, high resolution transmission electron spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photo electron spectroscopy. An MTT assay was used to evaluate the cytotoxicity of CDs toward L929 cells and found that CDs exhibit low cytotoxicity.

Obesity is associated with several comorbidities that cause high mortality rates worldwide. Thus, the study of adipose tissue (AT) has become a target of high interest because of its crucial contribution to many metabolic diseases and metabolizing potential. However, many AT-related physiological, pathophysiological, and toxicological mechanisms in humans are still poorly understood, mainly due to the use of non-human animal models.
