AI Article Synopsis
- This study investigates how the roughness of prosthesis surfaces affects the adhesion of common oral bacteria.
- Significant differences in bacterial adhesion were observed among various surface roughness levels, indicating that smoother surfaces may reduce bacteria attachment.
- The findings suggest using highly polished Co-Cr alloy prostheses to minimize bacterial adhesion and improve oral health outcomes.
Article Abstract
Purpose: To observe the common oral bacteria adhesion on the surface of prosthesis with different roughness, and to analyze the sequence of these adhesions and offer the options for better prosthesis and prevention of their occurrence.
Methods: The specimens made of Co-Cr alloy were polished step by step and divided into six groups. Then, they were put into the liquid BHI culture medium containing Ua, An and Pg. After 24h, the adhesive microbial amount and microbial amount in the culture medium were determined by counting the clonal formation unit. SPSS 6.0 software package was used to analyzed the data.
Results: There was significant difference among different groups of surface roughness(P<0.05). Pg was found neither on the surface of specimen , nor in the liquid BHI culture medium. After 24h, there was significant difference among six groups of Ua and An on the prosthesis surface (P<0.05). The total amount of bacterial of each group was different, too.
Conclusions: Pg is inhibited when these bacteria are cultivated together. The surface roughness of the materials positively correlates with the amount of adhesive bacteria. We should choose highly polished Co-Cr alloy to lessen the bacteria adhesion.

Bone tissue regeneration can be affected by various architectonical features of 3D porous scaffold, for example, pore size and shape, strut size, curvature, or porosity. However, the design of additively manufactured structures studied so far was based on uniform geometrical figures and unit cell structures, which often do not resemble the natural architecture of cancellous bone. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of architectonical features of additively manufactured (aka 3D printed) titanium scaffolds designed based on microtomographic scans of fragments of human femurs of individuals of different ages on in vitro response of human bone-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC).

This study aimed at quantifying the potential effects of plant and soil microbial interaction on selenium (Se) volatilization, with the specific objectives of identifying soil bacteria associated with rabbitfoot grass () and demonstrating the enhancement of Se volatilization in the soil-Indian mustard () system through inoculation of the soil with the identified best Se-volatilizing bacterial strain. Soil bacteria were isolated from topsoil and rhizosphere soils of rabbitfoot grass, and the bacterial colonies were characterized via PCR-DGGE and DGGE band analysis prior to their identification using 16S rDNA sequencing technique. produced over 500-fold more volatile Se in a culture medium treated with 15 µg Se/mL (equal mixture of SeO , SeO and selenomethionine) than any of the other eight identified bacterial strains.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent joint disorder that is characterized by the degeneration of articular cartilage in synovial joints. Most of the current treatment options for this disorder tend to focus on symptom management rather than addressing the underlying progression of the disease. Cartilage tissue engineering has emerged as a promising approach to address the limitations of current OA treatments, aiming to regenerate cartilage and restore the natural function of affected joints.

Background: Metastasis is the primary cause of mortality in small cell lung cancer (SCLC), with the liver being a predominant site for distal metastasis. Despite this clinical significance, mechanisms underlying the interaction between SCLC and liver microenvironment, fostering metastasis, remain unclear.
Methods: SCLC patient tissue array, bioinformatics analysis were performed to demonstrate the role of periostin (POSTN) in SCLC progression, metastasis, and prognosis.
