Since different antigen-presenting cells (APC) may direct the Th1/Th2 response, <italic toggle="yes">P. gingivalis</italic>-specific T-cell lines were established by different APC subpopulations, and their cytokine profiles were determined. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells induced similar percentages of IL-4+ and IFN-gamma+ T-cells and lower percentages of IL-10+ T-cells. Epstein-Barr virus-transformed B-cells (LCL) induced higher percentages of IL-4+ cells than IFN-gamma+ cells, with lower percentages of IL-10+ cells. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells induced a higher percent of IFN-gamma+ CD8 cells than LCL (p = 0.004). Purified B-cells, monocytes, and dendritic cells induced similar percentages of IL-4+ and IFN-gamma+ cells, although again, the percentage of IL-10+ cells was lower. The results of the present study have demonstrated that, as measured by FACS analysis of intracytoplasmic cytokines, <italic toggle="yes">P. gingivalis</italic>-specific T-cells produce both Th1 and Th2 cytokines, regardless of the APC population.</p></div></div></div></div></div></article></li><li><article class="journal-detail__article--card" aria-labelledby="article-title-CFB793B1D04E4657B89F68095CABE31E" role="article"><div class="journal-detail__article-type">Other</div><div class="journal-detail__article-meta" role="group"><div class="journal-detail__article-checkbox"><label class="ant-checkbox-wrapper sage-checkbox-wrapper css-var-_R_db_ ant-checkbox-css-var css-3obk1w"><span class="ant-checkbox ant-wave-target css-3obk1w"><input data-id="article_select_CFB793B1D04E4657B89F68095CABE31E" data-category="article" data-action="select" data-label="CFB793B1D04E4657B89F68095CABE31E" aria-label="Select article: Severe Impairment of Secretory Ig Production in Parotid Saliva of Down Syndrome Individuals" aria-checked="false" class="ant-checkbox-input" type="checkbox"/><span class="ant-checkbox-inner"></span></span></label></div><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--unsub" aria-label="Access type: Restricted access"><img alt="Restricted access" loading="lazy" width="20" height="20" decoding="async" data-nimg="1" style="color:transparent" srcSet="/_next/image?url=%2F_next%2Fstatic%2Fmedia%2Ficon_lock%402x.b4e50117.png&w=32&q=75 1x, /_next/image?url=%2F_next%2Fstatic%2Fmedia%2Ficon_lock%402x.b4e50117.png&w=48&q=75 2x" src="/_next/image?url=%2F_next%2Fstatic%2Fmedia%2Ficon_lock%402x.b4e50117.png&w=48&q=75"/><span>Restricted access</span></span><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--muted" aria-label="Article type: Other">Other</span><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--muted" aria-label="Publication date: May, 2002"><span class="journal-detail__tag-separator">First published</span> May, 2002</span><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--muted">pp. 308-312</span></div><h3 id="article-title-CFB793B1D04E4657B89F68095CABE31E" class="journal-detail__article-title"><a class="journal-detail__article-link" aria-label="Read article: Severe Impairment of Secretory Ig Production in Parotid Saliva of Down Syndrome Individuals" data-id="toc-article-title" href="/doi/10.1177/154405910208100504">Severe Impairment of Secretory Ig Production in Parotid Saliva of Down Syndrome Individuals </a></h3><div class="journal-detail__article-authors-row"><div class="journal-detail__article-authors-row-container"><div class="journal-detail__article-authors journal-detail__article-authors--with-toggle journal-detail__article-authors--clamped" role="group" aria-label="Authors"><span class="journal-detail__article-authors-text"><span class="journal-detail__author"><span>S.

The purpose of the present study was to assess the levels of parotid salivary immunoglobulins (Ig) in a group of DS individuals as a possible factor in the susceptibility of mucosal surfaces to infections. Twenty-nine DS and 10 age- and sex-matched healthy individuals were included. Salivary flow rate and IgA, IgG, and IgM concentrations were recorded. The secretion rates of IgA and IgG were diminished by 83% (p < 0.001) and 75% (p = 0.05), respectively, whereas the secretion rate of IgM was not statistically significantly lower. Analysis of the data suggests that DS individuals are immunodeficient in the humoral mucosal immune response. This may explain, in part, the high incidence of recurrent infections in target organs of the secretory immune system in DS subjects.</p></div></div></div></div></div></article></li><li><article class="journal-detail__article--card" aria-labelledby="article-title-40F3141D98CC4244A1441E0DA1E04F6D" role="article"><div class="journal-detail__article-type">Other</div><div class="journal-detail__article-meta" role="group"><div class="journal-detail__article-checkbox"><label class="ant-checkbox-wrapper sage-checkbox-wrapper css-var-_R_db_ ant-checkbox-css-var css-3obk1w"><span class="ant-checkbox ant-wave-target css-3obk1w"><input data-id="article_select_40F3141D98CC4244A1441E0DA1E04F6D" data-category="article" data-action="select" data-label="40F3141D98CC4244A1441E0DA1E04F6D" aria-label="Select article: Maternal Periodontal Disease and Preterm Low Birthweight: Case-Control Study" aria-checked="false" class="ant-checkbox-input" type="checkbox"/><span class="ant-checkbox-inner"></span></span></label></div><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--unsub" aria-label="Access type: Restricted access"><img alt="Restricted access" loading="lazy" width="20" height="20" decoding="async" data-nimg="1" style="color:transparent" srcSet="/_next/image?url=%2F_next%2Fstatic%2Fmedia%2Ficon_lock%402x.b4e50117.png&w=32&q=75 1x, /_next/image?url=%2F_next%2Fstatic%2Fmedia%2Ficon_lock%402x.b4e50117.png&w=48&q=75 2x" src="/_next/image?url=%2F_next%2Fstatic%2Fmedia%2Ficon_lock%402x.b4e50117.png&w=48&q=75"/><span>Restricted access</span></span><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--muted" aria-label="Article type: Other">Other</span><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--muted" aria-label="Publication date: May, 2002"><span class="journal-detail__tag-separator">First published</span> May, 2002</span><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--muted">pp. 313-318</span></div><h3 id="article-title-40F3141D98CC4244A1441E0DA1E04F6D" class="journal-detail__article-title"><a class="journal-detail__article-link" aria-label="Read article: Maternal Periodontal Disease and Preterm Low Birthweight: Case-Control Study" data-id="toc-article-title" href="/doi/10.1177/154405910208100505">Maternal Periodontal Disease and Preterm Low Birthweight: Case-Control Study </a></h3><div class="journal-detail__article-authors-row"><div class="journal-detail__article-authors-row-container"><div class="journal-detail__article-authors journal-detail__article-authors--with-toggle journal-detail__article-authors--clamped" role="group" aria-label="Authors"><span class="journal-detail__article-authors-text"><span class="journal-detail__author"><span>E.S.

Here we report a case-control study of 236 cases (infants < 37 wks and weighing < 2499 g) and a daily random sample of 507 controls (≥ 38 wks and weighing ≥ 2500 g). Clinical periodontal indices were measured on the labor wards. Associated risk factors for periodontal disease and PLBW were ascertained by means of a structured questionnaire and maternity notes. The risk for PLBW decreased with increasing pocket depth (odds ratio [OR] 0.83, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.68 to 1.00). After adjustment for maternal age, ethnicity, maternal education, smoking, alcohol consumption, infections, and hypertension during pregnancy, this decreased further (OR 0.78, 95% CI 0.64 to 0.99). We found no evidence for an association between PLBW and periodontal disease. Our results do not support a specific drive to improve periodontal health of pregnant women as a means of improving pregnancy outcomes.</p></div></div></div></div></div></article></li><li><article class="journal-detail__article--card" aria-labelledby="article-title-D7CE035D85334CC8AA4703AF35FC6076" role="article"><div class="journal-detail__article-type">Other</div><div class="journal-detail__article-meta" role="group"><div class="journal-detail__article-checkbox"><label class="ant-checkbox-wrapper sage-checkbox-wrapper css-var-_R_db_ ant-checkbox-css-var css-3obk1w"><span class="ant-checkbox ant-wave-target css-3obk1w"><input data-id="article_select_D7CE035D85334CC8AA4703AF35FC6076" data-category="article" data-action="select" data-label="D7CE035D85334CC8AA4703AF35FC6076" aria-label="Select article: Reducing Patients' State Anxiety in General Dental Practice: A Randomized Controlled Trial" aria-checked="false" class="ant-checkbox-input" type="checkbox"/><span class="ant-checkbox-inner"></span></span></label></div><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--unsub" aria-label="Access type: Restricted access"><img alt="Restricted access" loading="lazy" width="20" height="20" decoding="async" data-nimg="1" style="color:transparent" srcSet="/_next/image?url=%2F_next%2Fstatic%2Fmedia%2Ficon_lock%402x.b4e50117.png&w=32&q=75 1x, /_next/image?url=%2F_next%2Fstatic%2Fmedia%2Ficon_lock%402x.b4e50117.png&w=48&q=75 2x" src="/_next/image?url=%2F_next%2Fstatic%2Fmedia%2Ficon_lock%402x.b4e50117.png&w=48&q=75"/><span>Restricted access</span></span><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--muted" aria-label="Article type: Other">Other</span><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--muted" aria-label="Publication date: May, 2002"><span class="journal-detail__tag-separator">First published</span> May, 2002</span><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--muted">pp. 319-322</span></div><h3 id="article-title-D7CE035D85334CC8AA4703AF35FC6076" class="journal-detail__article-title"><a class="journal-detail__article-link" aria-label="Read article: Reducing Patients' State Anxiety in General Dental Practice: A Randomized Controlled Trial" data-id="toc-article-title" href="/doi/10.1177/154405910208100506">Reducing Patients' State Anxiety in General Dental Practice: A Randomized Controlled Trial </a></h3><div class="journal-detail__article-authors-row"><div class="journal-detail__article-authors-row-container"><div class="journal-detail__article-authors" role="group" aria-label="Authors"><span class="journal-detail__article-authors-text"><span class="journal-detail__author"><span>Y.-M.

This study tested the hypothesis that informing dentists about patients' dental anxiety prior to commencement of treatment reduces patients' state anxiety. A randomized controlled trial was conducted involving eight General Dental Practitioners in North Wales. Participants included patients attending their first session of dental treatment, and accumulating a score of 19 or above, or scoring 5 on any one question, of the Modified Dental Anxiety Scale (MDAS). Patients (n = 119) completed Spielberger's state anxiety inventory (STAI-S) pre- and post-treatment and were randomly allocated to intervention (dentist informed of MDAS score) and control (dentist not informed) groups. Intervention patients showed greater reduction in mean change STAI-S scores (F[1,119] = 8.74, P < 0.0001). Providing the dentist with information of the high level of a patient's dental anxiety prior to treatment, and involving the patient in this, reduced the patient's state anxiety.</p></div></div></div></div></div></article></li><li><article class="journal-detail__article--card" aria-labelledby="article-title-615E1426EA82477498B85C30E53D7B7C" role="article"><div class="journal-detail__article-type">Other</div><div class="journal-detail__article-meta" role="group"><div class="journal-detail__article-checkbox"><label class="ant-checkbox-wrapper sage-checkbox-wrapper css-var-_R_db_ ant-checkbox-css-var css-3obk1w"><span class="ant-checkbox ant-wave-target css-3obk1w"><input data-id="article_select_615E1426EA82477498B85C30E53D7B7C" data-category="article" data-action="select" data-label="615E1426EA82477498B85C30E53D7B7C" aria-label="Select article: The Importance of the Level of the Lip Line and Resting Lip Pressure in Class II,Division 2 Malocclusion" aria-checked="false" class="ant-checkbox-input" type="checkbox"/><span class="ant-checkbox-inner"></span></span></label></div><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--unsub" aria-label="Access type: Restricted access"><img alt="Restricted access" loading="lazy" width="20" height="20" decoding="async" data-nimg="1" style="color:transparent" srcSet="/_next/image?url=%2F_next%2Fstatic%2Fmedia%2Ficon_lock%402x.b4e50117.png&w=32&q=75 1x, /_next/image?url=%2F_next%2Fstatic%2Fmedia%2Ficon_lock%402x.b4e50117.png&w=48&q=75 2x" src="/_next/image?url=%2F_next%2Fstatic%2Fmedia%2Ficon_lock%402x.b4e50117.png&w=48&q=75"/><span>Restricted access</span></span><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--muted" aria-label="Article type: Other">Other</span><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--muted" aria-label="Publication date: May, 2002"><span class="journal-detail__tag-separator">First published</span> May, 2002</span><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--muted">pp. 323-328</span></div><h3 id="article-title-615E1426EA82477498B85C30E53D7B7C" class="journal-detail__article-title"><a class="journal-detail__article-link" aria-label="Read article: The Importance of the Level of the Lip Line and Resting Lip Pressure in Class II,Division 2 Malocclusion" data-id="toc-article-title" href="/doi/10.1177/154405910208100507">The Importance of the Level of the Lip Line and Resting Lip Pressure in Class II,Division 2 Malocclusion </a></h3><div class="journal-detail__article-authors-row"><div class="journal-detail__article-authors-row-container"><div class="journal-detail__article-authors journal-detail__article-authors--with-toggle journal-detail__article-authors--clamped" role="group" aria-label="Authors"><span class="journal-detail__article-authors-text"><span class="journal-detail__author"><span>B.G.

The purpose of this study was (1) to verify this assumption by means of simultaneous lip-pressure measurements at two different levels on the maxillary central incisor crowns, and (2) to examine factors that could possibly contribute to the increased resting lip pressure. This is the first study to prove that individuals with Class II, Division 2 malocclusion (n = 21) have the upper central incisors exposed to significantly higher lip pressure than those with Class I malocclusion (n = 21). Our statistical evaluation revealed that this is primarily attributed to a high lip line and not to a hypertonic peri-oral musculature. We concluded that orthodontic treatment of Class II, Division 2 cases should include intrusion of the maxillary incisors, to eliminate the non-physiologically high pressure exerted by the lower lip on these teeth and, consequently, to reduce the high risk of a post-orthodontic relapse.</p></div></div></div></div></div></article></li><li><article class="journal-detail__article--card" aria-labelledby="article-title-16610C11791D4FED870A157E87E0BC3A" role="article"><div class="journal-detail__article-type">Other</div><div class="journal-detail__article-meta" role="group"><div class="journal-detail__article-checkbox"><label class="ant-checkbox-wrapper sage-checkbox-wrapper css-var-_R_db_ ant-checkbox-css-var css-3obk1w"><span class="ant-checkbox ant-wave-target css-3obk1w"><input data-id="article_select_16610C11791D4FED870A157E87E0BC3A" data-category="article" data-action="select" data-label="16610C11791D4FED870A157E87E0BC3A" aria-label="Select article: Comparative Microstructural Study of the Diffusion Zone between NiCr Alloy and Different Dental Ceramics" aria-checked="false" class="ant-checkbox-input" type="checkbox"/><span class="ant-checkbox-inner"></span></span></label></div><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--unsub" aria-label="Access type: Restricted access"><img alt="Restricted access" loading="lazy" width="20" height="20" decoding="async" data-nimg="1" style="color:transparent" srcSet="/_next/image?url=%2F_next%2Fstatic%2Fmedia%2Ficon_lock%402x.b4e50117.png&w=32&q=75 1x, /_next/image?url=%2F_next%2Fstatic%2Fmedia%2Ficon_lock%402x.b4e50117.png&w=48&q=75 2x" src="/_next/image?url=%2F_next%2Fstatic%2Fmedia%2Ficon_lock%402x.b4e50117.png&w=48&q=75"/><span>Restricted access</span></span><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--muted" aria-label="Article type: Other">Other</span><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--muted" aria-label="Publication date: May, 2002"><span class="journal-detail__tag-separator">First published</span> May, 2002</span><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--muted">pp. 334-337</span></div><h3 id="article-title-16610C11791D4FED870A157E87E0BC3A" class="journal-detail__article-title"><a class="journal-detail__article-link" aria-label="Read article: Comparative Microstructural Study of the Diffusion Zone between NiCr Alloy and Different Dental Ceramics" data-id="toc-article-title" href="/doi/10.1177/154405910208100509">Comparative Microstructural Study of the Diffusion Zone between NiCr Alloy and Different Dental Ceramics </a></h3><div class="journal-detail__article-authors-row"><div class="journal-detail__article-authors-row-container"><div class="journal-detail__article-authors journal-detail__article-authors--with-toggle journal-detail__article-authors--clamped" role="group" aria-label="Authors"><span class="journal-detail__article-authors-text"><span class="journal-detail__author"><span>C.

This work tested the hypothesis that the details of the interface processes can be described in the framework of a chemical diffusion model. The development of interfacial phases was investigated by cross-sectional analytical transmission electron microscopy between a NiCr (Wiron 99) alloy and three different dental ceramics (Carat, Vita VMK 95, and Vision). All systems were investigated at normal firing conditions (suggested by the manufacturer) and at increased firing times as well. The conclusions are based on the results that the formation of a nanocrystalline Cr<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> layer and amorphous silicon oxide inclusions were detected in the early stage of the firing process in all investigated systems, and that, in the case of Carat and Vision ceramics, formation of complex NiCr and NiCrTi oxides was also observed at longer annealing times.</p> <p>It is shown by transmission electron microscopy that, in the reaction processes taking place at the NiCr alloy/dental ceramics interface, nanocrystalline Cr<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> first forms and amorphous silicon oxide inclusions appear, then, at longer firing times, complex NiCr and NiCrTi oxides form.</p></div></div></div></div></div></article></li><li><article class="journal-detail__article--card" aria-labelledby="article-title-2CB9BCEDE2C64B5AB151574B4FF71FA9" role="article"><div class="journal-detail__article-type">Other</div><div class="journal-detail__article-meta" role="group"><div class="journal-detail__article-checkbox"><label class="ant-checkbox-wrapper sage-checkbox-wrapper css-var-_R_db_ ant-checkbox-css-var css-3obk1w"><span class="ant-checkbox ant-wave-target css-3obk1w"><input data-id="article_select_2CB9BCEDE2C64B5AB151574B4FF71FA9" data-category="article" data-action="select" data-label="2CB9BCEDE2C64B5AB151574B4FF71FA9" aria-label="Select article: Helical Axis Errors Affect Computer-generated Occlusal Contacts" aria-checked="false" class="ant-checkbox-input" type="checkbox"/><span class="ant-checkbox-inner"></span></span></label></div><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--unsub" aria-label="Access type: Restricted access"><img alt="Restricted access" loading="lazy" width="20" height="20" decoding="async" data-nimg="1" style="color:transparent" srcSet="/_next/image?url=%2F_next%2Fstatic%2Fmedia%2Ficon_lock%402x.b4e50117.png&w=32&q=75 1x, /_next/image?url=%2F_next%2Fstatic%2Fmedia%2Ficon_lock%402x.b4e50117.png&w=48&q=75 2x" src="/_next/image?url=%2F_next%2Fstatic%2Fmedia%2Ficon_lock%402x.b4e50117.png&w=48&q=75"/><span>Restricted access</span></span><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--muted" aria-label="Article type: Other">Other</span><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--muted" aria-label="Publication date: May, 2002"><span class="journal-detail__tag-separator">First published</span> May, 2002</span><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--muted">pp. 338-343</span></div><h3 id="article-title-2CB9BCEDE2C64B5AB151574B4FF71FA9" class="journal-detail__article-title"><a class="journal-detail__article-link" aria-label="Read article: Helical Axis Errors Affect Computer-generated Occlusal Contacts" data-id="toc-article-title" href="/doi/10.1177/154405910208100510">Helical Axis Errors Affect Computer-generated Occlusal Contacts </a></h3><div class="journal-detail__article-authors-row"><div class="journal-detail__article-authors-row-container"><div class="journal-detail__article-authors journal-detail__article-authors--with-toggle journal-detail__article-authors--clamped" role="group" aria-label="Authors"><span class="journal-detail__article-authors-text"><span class="journal-detail__author"><span>R.

This study investigated the effects of errors in the calculated helical axis on simulated mandibular motion by the measurement of changes in occlusal contacts. A standard helical axis was calculated from a simulated lateral movement. A series of digital interocclusal records from centric to a 5° mandibular rotation about the standard helical axis was created. Digital dental cast models were aligned to the interocclusal records. Helical axis parameters and occlusal contacts calculated with the use of the aligned digital models were compared with those of the standard. Helical axes calculated from mandibular positions separated by 1.5° to 5.0° yielded equivalent occlusal contacts. Qualitatively, contacts for helical axes calculated from jaw rotations of 0.7° or larger were nearly identical to those of the standard.</p></div></div></div></div></div></article></li><li><article class="journal-detail__article--card" aria-labelledby="article-title-99269F5761994AB98D77AAFE3A56E066" role="article"><div class="journal-detail__article-type">Other</div><div class="journal-detail__article-meta" role="group"><div class="journal-detail__article-checkbox"><label class="ant-checkbox-wrapper sage-checkbox-wrapper css-var-_R_db_ ant-checkbox-css-var css-3obk1w"><span class="ant-checkbox ant-wave-target css-3obk1w"><input data-id="article_select_99269F5761994AB98D77AAFE3A56E066" data-category="article" data-action="select" data-label="99269F5761994AB98D77AAFE3A56E066" aria-label="Select article: Establishment of Porphyromonas gingivalis Heat-shock-protein-specific T-cell Lines from Atherosclerosis Patients" aria-checked="false" class="ant-checkbox-input" type="checkbox"/><span class="ant-checkbox-inner"></span></span></label></div><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--unsub" aria-label="Access type: Restricted access"><img alt="Restricted access" loading="lazy" width="20" height="20" decoding="async" data-nimg="1" style="color:transparent" srcSet="/_next/image?url=%2F_next%2Fstatic%2Fmedia%2Ficon_lock%402x.b4e50117.png&w=32&q=75 1x, /_next/image?url=%2F_next%2Fstatic%2Fmedia%2Ficon_lock%402x.b4e50117.png&w=48&q=75 2x" src="/_next/image?url=%2F_next%2Fstatic%2Fmedia%2Ficon_lock%402x.b4e50117.png&w=48&q=75"/><span>Restricted access</span></span><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--muted" aria-label="Article type: Other">Other</span><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--muted" aria-label="Publication date: May, 2002"><span class="journal-detail__tag-separator">First published</span> May, 2002</span><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--muted">pp. 344-348</span></div><h3 id="article-title-99269F5761994AB98D77AAFE3A56E066" class="journal-detail__article-title"><a class="journal-detail__article-link" aria-label="Read article: Establishment of Porphyromonas gingivalis Heat-shock-protein-specific T-cell Lines from Atherosclerosis Patients" data-id="toc-article-title" href="/doi/10.1177/154405910208100511">Establishment of Porphyromonas gingivalis Heat-shock-protein-specific T-cell Lines from Atherosclerosis Patients </a></h3><div class="journal-detail__article-authors-row"><div class="journal-detail__article-authors-row-container"><div class="journal-detail__article-authors journal-detail__article-authors--with-toggle journal-detail__article-authors--clamped" role="group" aria-label="Authors"><span class="journal-detail__article-authors-text"><span class="journal-detail__author"><span>J.-I.

At the site of first contact, the gingiva is exposed to aromatic amines and polycyclic hydrocarbons. These are metabolized by the N-acetyltransferases (NAT), leading to local detoxification and/or activation reactions contributing to the risk of periodontal destruction in smokers. The purpose of this study was to detect the expression of N-acetyltransferase isoenzymes NAT1 and NAT2 in periodontal granulation tissue. In 24 specimens obtained from periodontitis patients or control subjects, mRNA encoding for NAT1 and NAT2 was detected by RT-PCR, and proteins were identified by immunohistochemistry. In periodontal granulation tissues, immunoreactivity for NAT1 and NAT2 was detected in infiltrating leukocytes and fibroblasts. In normal gingiva, both enzymes were found in epithelial cells, whereas NAT1 was also detected in endothelial cells. The results suggest that these enzymes may play a role in the defense against xenobiotics and the accelerated progression of periodontal disease in smokers.</p></div></div></div></div></div></article></li><li><article class="journal-detail__article--card" aria-labelledby="article-title-E3B9CF3802324078A27D9C26B3D1FB6A" role="article"><div class="journal-detail__article-type">Other</div><div class="journal-detail__article-meta" role="group"><div class="journal-detail__article-checkbox"><label class="ant-checkbox-wrapper sage-checkbox-wrapper css-var-_R_db_ ant-checkbox-css-var css-3obk1w"><span class="ant-checkbox ant-wave-target css-3obk1w"><input data-id="article_select_E3B9CF3802324078A27D9C26B3D1FB6A" data-category="article" data-action="select" data-label="E3B9CF3802324078A27D9C26B3D1FB6A" aria-label="Select article: Regulation and Interactions of MT1-MMP and MMP-20 in Human Odontoblasts and Pulp Tissue in vitro" aria-checked="false" class="ant-checkbox-input" type="checkbox"/><span class="ant-checkbox-inner"></span></span></label></div><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--unsub" aria-label="Access type: Restricted access"><img alt="Restricted access" loading="lazy" width="20" height="20" decoding="async" data-nimg="1" style="color:transparent" srcSet="/_next/image?url=%2F_next%2Fstatic%2Fmedia%2Ficon_lock%402x.b4e50117.png&w=32&q=75 1x, /_next/image?url=%2F_next%2Fstatic%2Fmedia%2Ficon_lock%402x.b4e50117.png&w=48&q=75 2x" src="/_next/image?url=%2F_next%2Fstatic%2Fmedia%2Ficon_lock%402x.b4e50117.png&w=48&q=75"/><span>Restricted access</span></span><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--muted" aria-label="Article type: Other">Other</span><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--muted" aria-label="Publication date: May, 2002"><span class="journal-detail__tag-separator">First published</span> May, 2002</span><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--muted">pp. 354-359</span></div><h3 id="article-title-E3B9CF3802324078A27D9C26B3D1FB6A" class="journal-detail__article-title"><a class="journal-detail__article-link" aria-label="Read article: Regulation and Interactions of MT1-MMP and MMP-20 in Human Odontoblasts and Pulp Tissue in vitro" data-id="toc-article-title" href="/doi/10.1177/154405910208100513">Regulation and Interactions of MT1-MMP and MMP-20 in Human Odontoblasts and Pulp Tissue in vitro </a></h3><div class="journal-detail__article-authors-row"><div class="journal-detail__article-authors-row-container"><div class="journal-detail__article-authors journal-detail__article-authors--with-toggle journal-detail__article-authors--clamped" role="group" aria-label="Authors"><span class="journal-detail__article-authors-text"><span class="journal-detail__author"><span>H.

We studied MT1-MMP expression in mature human odontoblasts and pulp tissue, the regulation of MT1-MMP expression by growth factors TGF-β1 and BMP-2, and the activation of odontoblast-derived MMP-20 by MT1-MMP. MT1-MMP mRNA is expressed by native and cultured mature human odontoblasts and pulp tissue. Western blot analysis of human odontoblasts and pulp tissue detects 65- and 51-kDa pro- and active forms of MT1-MMP, and smaller truncated MT1-MMP forms. BMP-2 down-regulates MT1-MMP expression in odontoblasts and pulp tissue, while TGF-β1, alone or with BMP-2, decreases MT1-MMP mRNA levels only slightly. We also demonstrate that MT1-MMP is capable of converting proMMP-20 into a form corresponding to the active MMP-20. In conclusion, this study demonstrates the expression and differential regulation of MT1-MMP in human dentin-pulp complex cells, and the activation of MMP-20 by MT1-MMP.</p></div></div></div></div></div></article></li><li><article class="journal-detail__article--card" aria-labelledby="article-title-5B788C060B324B1382F5EEDC5F3B59AC" role="article"><div class="journal-detail__article-type">Other</div><div class="journal-detail__article-meta" role="group"><div class="journal-detail__article-checkbox"><label class="ant-checkbox-wrapper sage-checkbox-wrapper css-var-_R_db_ ant-checkbox-css-var css-3obk1w"><span class="ant-checkbox ant-wave-target css-3obk1w"><input data-id="article_select_5B788C060B324B1382F5EEDC5F3B59AC" data-category="article" data-action="select" data-label="5B788C060B324B1382F5EEDC5F3B59AC" aria-label="Select article: Hormonal Regulation of Androgen Receptor Messenger Ribonucleic Acid Expression in Human Tooth Pulp" aria-checked="false" class="ant-checkbox-input" type="checkbox"/><span class="ant-checkbox-inner"></span></span></label></div><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--unsub" aria-label="Access type: Restricted access"><img alt="Restricted access" loading="lazy" width="20" height="20" decoding="async" data-nimg="1" style="color:transparent" srcSet="/_next/image?url=%2F_next%2Fstatic%2Fmedia%2Ficon_lock%402x.b4e50117.png&w=32&q=75 1x, /_next/image?url=%2F_next%2Fstatic%2Fmedia%2Ficon_lock%402x.b4e50117.png&w=48&q=75 2x" src="/_next/image?url=%2F_next%2Fstatic%2Fmedia%2Ficon_lock%402x.b4e50117.png&w=48&q=75"/><span>Restricted access</span></span><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--muted" aria-label="Article type: Other">Other</span><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--muted" aria-label="Publication date: May, 2002"><span class="journal-detail__tag-separator">First published</span> May, 2002</span><span class="journal-detail__tag journal-detail__tag--muted">pp. 360-365</span></div><h3 id="article-title-5B788C060B324B1382F5EEDC5F3B59AC" class="journal-detail__article-title"><a class="journal-detail__article-link" aria-label="Read article: Hormonal Regulation of Androgen Receptor Messenger Ribonucleic Acid Expression in Human Tooth Pulp" data-id="toc-article-title" href="/doi/10.1177/154405910208100514">Hormonal Regulation of Androgen Receptor Messenger Ribonucleic Acid Expression in Human Tooth Pulp </a></h3><div class="journal-detail__article-authors-row"><div class="journal-detail__article-authors-row-container"><div class="journal-detail__article-authors journal-detail__article-authors--with-toggle journal-detail__article-authors--clamped" role="group" aria-label="Authors"><span class="journal-detail__article-authors-text"><span class="journal-detail__author"><span>J.B.

Steroids and cytokines together can alter steroid receptor content in many tissues; thus, similar mechanisms may exist in tooth pulp. In this study, reverse-transcription/polymerase chain-reaction was used to screen human pulp for the mRNAs encoding receptors for androgen (AR), estrogens (ERβ), and hepatocyte growh factor (HGF: c-Met).

In this double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized, crossover <italic toggle="yes">in situ</italic> study that conformed to good clinical practice, volunteers received intra-oral removable appliances carrying demineralized enamel samples after application of elmex fluid or placebo. After 5 min, 1, 2, 3, and 4 weeks <italic toggle="yes">in situ</italic>, KOH-soluble fluoride (KOHF), structurally bound fluoride (SBF), mineral gain, and lesion depth reduction were measured.
