Aberrant sialylation plays a significant role in oral squamous cell carcinoma progression

Abstract Objective Aberrant glycosylation; mainly sialylation and fucosylation is recently considered as a major hallmark of cancer. Aberrant sialylation has long been associated with various neoplastic diseases. However, role of aberrant sialylation in oral cancer is still in its infancy. The present study aimed to examine mRNA expressions of α‐2, 3, α‐2, 6 silayltransferase (ST) families and sialidase in 160 human oral cancer tissues. Methods mRNA expression of ST3GAL1, ST3GAL2, ST3GAL3,...

The segmental impression technique: A straightforward solution to a difficult problem

Publication date: Available online 19 November 2019Source: The Journal of Prosthetic DentistryAuthor(s): Islam Abd Alraheam, Terry DonovanAbstractTrying to capture all the details of multiple teeth preparation in one impression is challenging. Techniques have been suggested to extend the working time of an impression material. This article describes a segmental impression technique to accurately capture all the preparation margins while allowing additional impression-making time.
