The study aimed to analyze the spatial distribution and factors associated with oral cancer mortality in the 2009-2019 period in the municipalities of Ceará, Brazil. This ecological study of oral cancer deaths used distribution analysis, autocorrelation, and spatial regression. The oral cancer mortality rate has spatial autocorrelation. In the geographically weighted regression analysis, a negative relationship was observed between mortality and the number of households with access to the sewage system (β = -0.001) and the mean number of people per household (β = -5.947). We observed a positive relationship between mortality and percentage of oral health coverage in Primary Health Care (β = 0.021), number of people living in the rural area of the municipality (β = 0.0001), Municipal Human Development Index (β = 40.417), and aging rate (β = 1.169). We can conclude that the influence on the mortality risk showed spatial clusters that require priority in public policies that impact oral cancer morbimortality.

Introduction: Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is the seventh most common type of cancer in the world. Metastases occur in up to 40 % of cases and bones are the second most frequent site. Metastases in extremities are uncommon with very few publications covering distal lower-limb bone metastasis.

The rapid, sensitive and reliable detection of oral cancer overexpressed 1 (ORAOV 1) is crucial for the early, non-invasive diagnosis of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Herein, we are the first to construct an ultrasensitive electrochemical (EC) biosensor based on an entropy-driven "two-way signal output" (TWSO) cyclic circuit for salivary ORAOV 1 detection. This innovative TWSO cyclic circuit can skillfully convert by-products into desired signal-generating units, not only reducing the excessive accumulation of by-products but also improving the utilization efficiency of output chains, thereby achieving rapid reaction kinetics and high signal outputs.

Oral submucosal fibrosis is a highly malignant oral condition that necessitates the use of sophisticated therapeutic procedures. OSF is a multifactorial precancerous condition induced by areca nut chewing, deficiencies in vitamins and trace minerals, immunological aspects, and hereditary factors. Adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells possess the capability for multidirectional activation and are extensively distributed throughout the body.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder characterized by recurrent eczematous lesions and severe itching, for which clinical treatments are limited. Selectively inhibiting Janus Kinase 3 (JAK3) and tyrosine kinase expressed in hepatocellular carcinoma (TEC) family kinases is proposed as a promising strategy to treat AD with possible reduced side effects and enhanced efficacy. In this study, we developed a dual JAK3/TEC family kinase inhibitor ZZB, which demonstrated potent inhibitory activity with IC values of 0.

Regulatory T (Treg) cells, immunosuppressive CD4 T cells, can impede anti-tumor immunity, complicating cancer treatment. Since their discovery, numerous studies have been dedicated to understand Treg cell biology, with a focus on checkpoint pathways' role in their generation and function. Immune checkpoints, such as PD-1/PD-L1, CTLA-4, TIGIT, TIM-3, and OX40, are pivotal in controlling Treg cell expansion and activity in the tumor microenvironment (TME), affecting their ability to suppress immune responses.
