Purpose: To evaluate the effect of three phosphoric acids modified with chlorhexidine (CHX), benzalkonium chloride (BAC), or proanthocyanidins (PRO) and one conventional phosphoric acid (CON) on the immediate (24 h; IM) and 1-year composite-dentin microtensile bond strength (μTBS) and nanoleakage (NL), using an etch-and-rinse adhesive.
Materials And Methods: A flat dentin surface was exposed on 28 caries-free extracted molars, which were then randomly assigned to four groups (n = 7). After etching and rinsing with one phosphoric acid per group, the adhesive (Adper Single Bond 2) was applied on a moist dentin surface. Composite buildups (Filtek Z350) were constructed incrementally and bonded stick specimens (0.8 mm2) were prepared and submitted to the microtensile test (0.5 mm/min) immediately (24 h) or after 1 year of water storage. For nanoleakage, 2 bonded sticks from each tooth at each storage period were immersed in 50 wt% ammoniacal silver nitrate, polished, and analyzed by SEM in backscattered mode. Data were submitted to a two-way ANOVA and Tukey's test (α = 0.05).
Results: After 1 year, stable μTBS values were observed only for the modified phosphoric acids (CHX, BAC, and PRO). Also, NL was more evident in the CON group than in the CHX, BAC and PRO groups (p < 0.05) after 1-year water storage.
Conclusions: Compared to the control, the phosphoric acid etchants which contained protease inhibitors (CHX, BAC and PA) promoted the stability of composite-dentin microtensile bond strength and showed less nanoleakage after 1 year of water storage. They represent an effective way of prolonging the stability of the composite-dentin bonds without creating an additional bonding step.

Purpose: We aimed to explore the mechanism by which Boron-doped nano-hydroxyapatite (B-nHAp) facilitates the proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts through controlled release of B.
Methods: B-nHAp characterization was accomplished by means of X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, and transmission electron microscopy. Human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) were subjected to flow cytometry, alizarin red S staining, and cell counting kit-8 assay for proliferation and differentiation determination.

Accidental ingestion of lead (Pb)-contaminated soils represents a major route of Pb exposure for both adults and children, and the development of accessible and cost-effective solutions to reduce Pb poisoning is urgently required. Here, we present an effective and straightforward technique, involving the consumption of cola beverages, for the purpose of lowering blood Pb levels following the ingestion of contaminated soils in animal models. This method facilitated the direct passage of Pb in contaminated soil through the digestive system, enhancing its elimination without absorption into systemic circulation.

SAMHD1 is a dNTPase that impedes replication of HIV-1 in myeloid cells and resting T lymphocytes. Here we elucidate the substrate activation mechanism of SAMHD1, which involves dNTP binding at allosteric sites and transient tetramerization. Our findings reveal that tetramerization alone is insufficient to promote dNTP hydrolysis; instead, the activation mechanism requires an inactive tetrameric intermediate with partially occupied allosteric sites.

Background: Limited reports are available regarding bonding of universal adhesives to primary teeth' enamel.
Aim: To evaluate the effect of application mode and aging on microtensile bond strength (μTBS) of universal adhesives to primary enamel.
Design: Ninety-six human primary molars were randomly assigned to three groups: SU: Scotchbond Universal (3M); CU: Clearfil Universal Bond Quick (Kuraray Noritake); iBU: iBond Universal (Heraeus Kulzer), then subdivided according to phosphoric acid etching time into three subgroups (SG): SG1: 0s; SG2: 15s; SG3: 30s.

It is urgent for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) to develop a robust and facile therapy for effective control of serum phosphate and reasonable regulation of gut microbiota, which are aiming to prevent cardiovascular calcification and reduce cardiovascular complications. Here, bioinspired by intestinal microstructures, we developed biomimetic wrinkled prebiotic-containing microspheres with enhanced intestinal retention and absorption for reducing hyperphosphatemia and vascular calcification of CKD model rats. The resultant CSM@5 microspheres exhibited favorable phosphate binding capacity in vitro and could effectively reduce serum concentration of phosphorous in vivo.
