DISRUPTION OF MONOCYTE AND MACROPHAGE HOMEOSTASIS IN PERIODONTITIS

Disruption of Monocyte and Macrophage Homeostasis in Periodontitis

Monocytes and macrophages are major cellular components of the innate immunity that play essential roles in tissue homeostasis.The contribution of different subsets of monocytes/macrophages to periodontal health and disease has not been fully elucidated.Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a risk factor for periodontitis.We hypothesized that the mono

Are current microscopic traffic models capable of generating jerk profile consistent with real world observations?

Microscopic behavior modeling plays a critical role in traffic flow analyais, simulation, and autonomous vehicle algorithm development.Numerous efforts are devoted to the development of it in both longitudinal and lateral dimensions.Empirical observations reveal that jerk (the differential of acceleration) significantly influences traffic safety, w

A Rare Case of a Malignant Proliferating Trichilemmal Tumor: A Molecular Study Harboring Potential Therapeutic Significance and a Review of Literature

Malignant proliferating trichilemmal tumors (MPTTs), arising from the external root sheath of hair follicles, are exceptionally rare, with limited documentation of their genetic alterations.We present a case of a 64-year-old African American woman who initially presented with a gradually enlarging nodule on her posterior scalp.An initial biopsy at
