Compared with other forms of cell death such as apoptosis, necrosis, and autophagy, ferroptosis exhibits distinct molecular mechanisms and biological features ( Table 1 ): (1) Iron Dependence: Ferroptosis is uniquely triggered by elevated intracellular iron levels, differentiating it from other cell death modes
From bioinert titanium to time-dependent loss of bioactivity Titanium and titanium alloys have long served as the foundational materials for endosseous implants owing to their favorable mechanical properties and the spontaneous formation of a stable surface oxide layer (primarily TiO 2 ), which confers chemical stability and biocompatibility
Abstract Interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) is characterized by bladder and/or pelvic pain, increased urinary urgency and frequency and nocturia
The high incidence of purulent vaginal discharge (PVD) in the first three weeks postpartum is significantly associated with early vaginal microbial features, characterized by enrichment of Trueperella pyogenes , Fusobacterium necrophorum , and Porphyromonas levii
The strong protic base necessary to abstract the proton is a tertiary alkoxide that is generated from the hydroquinone form of vitamin K, through a mechanism involving the reaction with molecular oxygen, referred to as base strength amplification by oxidation [206]
