Recomanacions per Sant Jordi 2023 de la Biblioteca UIC Barcelona
(Instagram - Servei de Biblioteca (@bibliouic) - UIC Barcelona, 2023-04-25)Ara que ja ha passat la meravellosa diada de Sant Jordi, encara amb el regust de roses i llibres, l'equip de Biblioteca us volem recomanar uns títols per si encara no sabeu quin llibre agafar en préstec ... -
Optimization of guanosine-based hydrogels with boric acid derivatives for enhanced long-term stability and cell survival
(Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023)Tissue defects can lead to serious health problems and often require grafts or transplants to repair damaged soft tissues. However, these procedures can be complex and may not always be feasible due to ... -
Association between soluble angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 in saliva and SARS-CoV-2 infection: a cross-sectional study
(Scientific Reports, 2023)This study aimed to investigate the association between saliva soluble angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (sACE2) and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection in children and ... -
Implant surface physicochemistry affects keratinocyte hemidesmosome formation
(Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part A, 2023)Previous studies have shown hydrophilic/hydrophobic implant surfaces stimulate/hinder osseointegration. An analogous concept was applied here using common biological functional groups on a model surface ... -
Biomimetic mineralized hybrid scaffolds with antimicrobial peptides
(Bioactive Materials, 2021-08)Infection in hard tissue regeneration is a clinically-relevant challenge. Development of scaffolds with dual function for promoting bone/dental tissue growth and preventing bacterial infections is a ... -
Culture and characterization of various porcine integumentary-connective tissue-derived mesenchymal stromal cells to facilitate tissue adhesion to percutaneous metal implants
(Stem Cell Research & Therapy, 2021)Background: Transdermal osseointegrated prosthesis have relatively high infection rates leading to implant revision or failure. A principle cause for this complication is the absence of a durable ... -
Development of standard protocols for biofilm-biomaterial interface testing
(JADA Foundational Science, 2022)The oral biofilm is associated with the most common oral diseases such as caries, periodontitis, and peri-implantitis. It is also linked to failures of dental treatment approaches (eg, direct or indirect ... -
Functional signatures of ex-vivo dental caries onset
(Journal of Oral Microbiology, 2022)Background: The etiology of dental caries remains poorly understood. With the advent of next-generation sequencing, a number of studies have focused on the microbial ecology of the disease. However, ... -
Discerning the subfibrillar structure of mineralized collagen fibrils: a model for the ultrastructure of bone
(PLoS ONE, 2013)Biomineralization templated by organic molecules to produce inorganic-organic nanocomposites is a fascinating example of nature using bottom-up strategies at nanoscale to accomplish highly ordered ... -
Antimicrobial GL13K peptide coatings killed and ruptured the wall of streptococcus gordonii and prevented formation and growth of biofilms
(PLoS ONE, 2014)Infection is one of the most prevalent causes for dental implant failure. We have developed a novel antimicrobial peptide coating on titanium by immobilizing the antimicrobial peptide GL13K. GL13K was ... -
Targeting the oral plaque microbiome with immobilized anti-biofilm peptides at tooth-restoration interfaces
(PLoS ONE, 2020)Recurrent caries, the development of carious lesions at the interface between the restorative material and the tooth structure, is highly prevalent and represents the primary cause for failure of dental ... -
PLA-based mineral-doped scaffolds seeded with human periapical cyst-derived MSCs: a promising tool for regenerative healing in dentistry
(Materials, 2019)Human periapical cyst mesenchymal stem cells (hPCy-MSCs) are a newly discovered cell population innovatively collected from inflammatory periapical cysts. The use of this biological waste guarantees a ... -
Surface immobilization chemistry of a laminin-derived peptide affects keratinocyte activity
(Coatings, 2020)Many chemical routes have been proposed to immobilize peptides on biomedical device surfaces, and in particular, on dental implants to prevent peri-implantitis. While a number of factors affect peptide ... -
Junctional epithelium and hemidesmosomes: tape and rivets for solving the “percutaneous device dilemma” in dental and other permanent implants
(Bioactive Materials, 2022-12)The percutaneous device dilemma describes etiological factors, centered around the disrupted epithelial tissue surrounding non-remodelable devices, that contribute to rampant percutaneous device infection. ... -
Guiding bone formation using semi-onlay calcium phosphate implants in an ovine calvarial model
(Journal of Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine, 2022)The restoration of cranio-maxillofacial deformities often requires complex reconstructive surgery in a challenging anatomical region, with abnormal soft tissue structures and bony deficits. In this ... -
Chitosan-recombinamer layer-by-layer coatings for multifunctional implants
