Antibacterial silver ion-coated dental implants suppress peri-implantitis in a murine model
Abstract Peri-implantitis, an inflammatory condition caused by bacterial infection around an implant, is currently the leading cause of implant failure. Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis), an anaerobic bacterial pathogen associated with periodontitis, is known to play a key role in peri-implantitis. To address this issue, the present study examined the antibacterial properties of silver ion (Ag+)-coated titanium implants against P. gingivalis and their ability to prevent bone loss.

Differentiation of Mesenchymal Stem/ Stromal Cells into CD45+ Macrophage-like Cells: Expanding Insights into MSC Plasticity
Abstract Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) are notable for their differentiation potential and immunomodulatory properties. They share several features with macrophages that are also similar to those of fibrocytes. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between MSCs, fibrocytes, and macrophages, focusing on the hypothesis of a possible direct lineage. This study focuses on a freshly isolated murine MSC population known as PalphaSmMSCs (CD45- TER119- Sca-1+ PDGFRα+).
[Evaluation of Plasma Concentrations of Mycophenolic Acid in Renal Transplant Patients Using LM1010 High-performance Liquid Chromatography].
Plasma concentrations of mycophenolic acid (MPA), an immunosuppressive agent, have been measured in clinical settings using immunoassay methods or HPLC. However, immunoassay methods show cross-reactivity with metabolites of MPA glucuronide. Recently, the LM1010 high-performance liquid chromatography instrument was approved as a new general medical device. In this study, we compared the results of MPA plasma concentrations analyzed using the LM1010 method and the previously described HPLC method.

Proposed protocol for treatment of severe periodontitis without platelet transfusion in patients with aplastic anemia: a case report - Journal of Medical Case Reports
Abstract Background Aplastic anemia is an intractable disease characterized by pancytopenia, susceptibility to infection, and difficulty in achieving hemostasis. In patients with severe periodontal disease and aplastic anemia, spontaneous bleeding from the gingival tissue due to thrombocytopenia and during brushing is common, which may further exacerbate dental issues.
