Background: DNA methyltransferase 3A (Dnmt3a) is an enzyme that catalyzes the de novo methylation of DNA, and plays essential roles in a wide range of physiological and pathological processes. However, it remains unclear whether Porphyromonas gingivalis affects cementoblasts, the cells responsible for cementum formation, through Dnmt3a.
Methods: The samples were collected from models of mouse periapical lesions and mice of different ages, and the expression of Dnmt3a was detected through immunofluorescence.

Background And Objectives: The Chordate System administers kinetic oscillation stimulation (K.O.S) into the nasal cavity thereby potentially modulating the activity of trigemino-autonomic reflex.

Failure of central nervous system (CNS) axons to regenerate after injury results in permanent disability. Several molecular neuro-protective and neuro-regenerative strategies have been proposed as potential treatments but do not provide the directional cues needed to direct target-specific axon regeneration. Here, we demonstrate that applying an external guidance cue in the form of electric field stimulation to adult rats after optic nerve crush injury was effective at directing long-distance, target-specific retinal ganglion cell (RGC) axon regeneration to native targets in the diencephalon.

Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is a significant medical condition characterized by the abrupt decline in kidney function.Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS), a non-invasive therapeutic technique employing low-intensity acoustic wave pulses, has shown promise in promoting tissue repair and regeneration. A novel LIPUS system was developed and evaluated in rat AKI models, focusing on its effects on glomerular filtration rate (GFR), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), serum creatinine (SCr), and the Notch1-Akt-eNOS signaling pathway.

Lomecel-B is a novel cell-based therapeutic approach to AD that targets neuroinflammation, microvascular dysfunction, and has the potential to stimulate endogenous tissue regeneration. We conducted MRI analysis of brain morphology in the CLEAR-MIND study, a 49-patient proof-of-concept study that tested 3 different dosing regimens of Lomecel-B vs placebo in patients with mild AD dementia.
