Background: is a differentially expressed gene (DEG) between M1 and M2 macrophages. This study explained why it causes opposite effects in different circumstances.
Methods: Gene expression profiles of various cell subsets were compared by mining a public database.

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a biological treatment widely used in regenerative medicine for its restorative capacity. Although PRP is typically applied at the time of obtention, long-term storage and preservation could enhance its versatility and clinical applications. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of long-term freezing on PRP.

Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) plays a vital role in various cellular processes, including those involving stem cells. This study evaluated the effects of IGF-1 on cell survival, osteogenic differentiation, and mRNA expression in gingiva-derived mesenchymal stem cell spheroids. Using concave microwells, spheroids were generated in the presence of IGF-1 at concentrations of 0, 10, and 100 ng/mL.

Recombinant human IGF-1 is used to treat severe primary IGF-1 deficiency, but this treatment requires twice-daily injection, often does not fully correct the growth deficit, and has important off-target effects. We therefore sought to target IGF-1 to growth plate cartilage by generating fusion proteins combining IGF-1 with single-chain human antibody fragments that target matrilin-3, a cartilage matrix protein. We previously showed that this cartilage-targeting IGF-1 fusion protein (CV1574-1) promoted growth plate function in a GH-deficient (lit) mouse model.

Background: Orthodontic relapse, the undesired deviation of teeth from their corrected positions, remains a significant challenge in clinical orthodontics. Incomplete periodontal bone remodeling has been identified as a key factor in this process. Despite decades of research, currently there are no effective strategies to prevent relapse.
