A dentigerous cyst (DC) is the most common developmental cystic lesion of the jaws. Histologically, these cysts derive from the odontogenic epithelium that includes the reduced enamel epithelium, epithelial cell rests of Serres, and epithelial cell rests of Malassez. Radiographically, DCs are usually presented as well-defined radiolucencies associated with the crown of an unerupted tooth at the level of the cementoenamel junction (CEJ).

Article Synopsis
  • The review summarizes long-term research by the Saint-Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology on the biological activity of peptide bioregulators and compares findings from domestic and international studies.
  • Russian scientists have taken the lead in using buccal epithelium as a diagnostic marker for age-related diseases, highlighting their significant contributions in this field.
  • The research reveals that peptides from the epiphysis can enhance melatonin secretion and influence circadian rhythms in the elderly by regulating gene expression and reducing harmful protein synthesis, suggesting their potential as therapeutic agents for age-related issues.

This case report describes Zoon's vulvitis or plasma cell vulvitis (PCV) with coexisting lichen planus (LP) treated with methotrexate. PCV is a rare, chronic, benign idiopathic inflammatory condition of the vulvar mucosa, characterized by a bright-red, chronic lesion of mucosa. Typically, it presents as atrophic, shiny, red plaques that can affect any part of the vulva and can spread symmetrically and bilaterally with the propensity of chronicity and gradual coalescence.

The Department of Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology, Ariel University, Ariel 4070000, Israel.

Buccal drug delivery offers a promising alternative for avoiding gastrointestinal degradation and first-pass metabolism. However, enhancing the buccal epithelial barrier's permeability remains challenging. This study explores the effects of ethanolic extracts from (CM), (CMC), and (ORD) on buccal epithelium permeability in vitro using a TR146 cell-based model.
