Objective: The aim: To determine the concentration of markers of the immune-inflammatory response (IL-1β, IL-10, IL-1β / IL-10, hsCRP) in oral fluid in patients with diseases of periodontal tissues in combination with general somatic pathology.
Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: The study was conducted at Danylo Halytsky Lviv National Medical University, Department of therapeutic dentistry FPGE, Lviv, Ukraine. The patients were divided into two groups: the main group - 144 patients (with periodontal tissue diseases on the background of general somatic pathology) and the control group - 30 somatically and dentally healthy persons, in whose oral fluid was determined the concentration of IL-1β, IL-10, hsCRP by the enzyme immunoassay method.
Results: Results: As a result of our research, it was found that in people with periodontal tissue diseases, against the background of general somatic pathology, there is an activation of the immune-inflammatory response, which aggravates the course of general somatic and dental diseases in this contingent of patients.
Conclusion: Conclusions: Therefore, in patients with periodontal tissue diseases on the background of somatic diseases, a significant increase in the level of the pro-in-flammatory cytokine IL-1β and hsCRP was determined against the background of a decrease in the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 in the oral fluid compared to the values in the control group.

Rates of gambling disorder (GD) have been found to be higher among people receiving disability benefit, but few studies have investigated whether receiving disability benefit prospectively actually increases the risk of GD. The present study investigated whether those with a disability benefit had an increased risk of developing GD using a case-control design. The study sample was retrieved from the Norwegian Patient Registry (NPR, N = 5,131) and consisted of all adults in Norway (18 years and older) who had received a GD diagnosis (F63.

Background: The rising prevalence of depression among cancer patients is alarming. This study examines the relationship between the Oxidative Balance Score (OBS)-a composite measure of dietary and lifestyle factors-and depression, including specific depressive symptoms in this population.
Methods: Data were analyzed from 3,280 adult cancer patients collected in NHANES from 2005-2020.

As the first mammal to be domesticated for research purposes, rats served as the primary animal model for various branches of biomedical research, including breast cancer studies, up until the late 1990s and early 2000s. During this time, genetic engineering of mice, but not rats, became routine, and mice gradually supplanted rats as the preferred rodent model. But recent advances in creating genetically engineered rat models, especially with the assistance of CRISPR/Cas9 technology, have rekindled the significance of rats as a critical model in exploring various facets of breast cancer research.

In vivo lineage tracing holds great potential to reveal fundamental principles of tissue development and homeostasis. However, current lineage tracing in humans relies on extremely rare somatic mutations, which has limited temporal resolution and lineage accuracy. Here, we developed a generic lineage-tracing tool based on frequent epimutations on DNA methylation, enabled by our computational method MethylTree.

DNA methylation, catalyzed by DNA methyltransferases (DNMT), plays pivotal role in regulating embryonic development, gene expression, adaption to environmental stress, and maintaining genome integrity. DNMT family consists of DNMT1, DNMT3A, DNMT3B, and the enzymatically inactive DNMT3L. DNMT3A and DNMT3B establish novel methylation patterns maintained by DNMT1 during replication.
