Oral mucosal wounds heal faster with minimal scar compared with cutaneous wounds. In order to reduce the effect of environmental factors and find the expression difference of growth factors in oral and dermal wound, this study created the following rat wound model. The oral mucosa was firstly transplanted to left abdominal skin and after the wounds healed, a line-like full-thickness excisional ...

Hidradenitis Suppurativa is a chronic inflammatory disease, the pathogenesis of which incompletely understood. Fibroblasts and Mast cells are important mediators wound healing fibrosis, disturbed in HS tissue. We demonstrate aberration fibroblast mast cell populations whole tissue RNA seq analysed by CIBERSORTx in-silico deconvolution, validated Nanostring Gene Expression Immunohistochemistry. ...

UNLABELLED The aim of the present paper is to evaluate the effect of the high molecular weight chitosan (HMWC) and of sodium alginate (NaAL) on surface hydrophobicity of Candida albicans and on adhesion of the yeast to epithelial cells and fibroblasts of different proceeding. For this study, a collection strain and seven isolates of C. albicans from saliva (patients with denture stomatitis) wer...

Oral administration of royal jelly (RJ) promotes wound healing in diabetic mice. Concerns have arisen regarding the efficacy of RJ on the wound healing process of normal skin cells. In this study, a wound was created by scratching normal human dermal fibroblasts, one of the major cells involved in the wound healing process. The area was promptly treated with RJ at varying concentrations of 0.1,...

Exposure of oral cavity to areca nut is associated with several pathological conditions including oral submucous fibrosis (OSF). Histopathologically OSF is characterized by epithelial atrophy, chronic inflammation, juxtaepithelial hyalinization, leading to fibrosis of submucosal tissue and affects 0.5% of the population in the Indian subcontinent. As the molecular mechanisms leading to atrophie...

Cigarette smoke and smokeless tobacco extracts contain multiple carcinogenic compounds, but little is known about the mechanisms by which tumors develop and progress upon chronic exposure to carcinogens such as those present in tobacco products. Here, we examine the effects of smokeless tobacco extracts on human oral fibroblasts. We show that smokeless tobacco extracts elevated the levels of in...
