Article Abstract

In clinical practice, mini-screws of titanium-6-aluminum-4-vanadium alloy with an extra low interstitial (ELI) grade (Ti-6Al-4V ELI) are widely used as orthodontic anchorages. However, in orthodontic treatment, Ti-6Al-4V mini-screw failure because of peri-implantitis is a major challenge. To prevent damage caused by peri-implantitis, we developed a novel Ti-6Al-4V disc/screw coated with poly(lactide--glycolide) incorporating fisetin, a naturally occurring flavonoid with anti-inflammatory and antiosteoclastogenic/osteogenic properties. Sustained fisetin release from the Ti-6Al-4V disc and its anti-inflammatory and antiosteoclastogenic/osteogenic differentiation properties were demonstrated using in vitro cell culture experiment. In addition, in a rat model of peri-implantitis, sustained fisetin release from the Ti-6Al-4V screw suppressed inflammation progression, reduced alveolar bone resorption, and stabilized screw movement. These findings highlight sustained fisetin-release Ti-6Al-4V screws as a promising strategy for enhancing orthodontic mini-screw stability and success through peri-implantitis prevention.

Pharmacological treatment of epilepsy is challenged by several barriers with the blood brain barrier (BBB) imposing the utmost restrictions to brain drug delivery. Antiepileptic drugs aim to reduce seizures frequency and severity while exerting minimal toxic effects. Herein, the merits of phytomedicine and brain targeted nanocarriers were combined for the control of seizures in a chronic epilepsy model.

Fisetin (FIS) has recently been the focal point of multiple studies. Yet, its skin delivery has not been fully investigated due to its low aqueous solubility and high lipophilicity. Herein, FIS-loaded Poloxamer 407 (P407) nanoparticles were modified with Ascorbyl Palmitate (AS) and Hyaluronan (HYA), providing a multimodal approach to preventing UVB-induced skin photoaging.

Unlabelled: By eliciting lung necrosis, which enhances aerosol transmission, ( ) sustains its long-term survival as a human pathogen. In studying the human-like necrotic granuloma lesions characteristic of -infected mice, we found that lung myeloid cells display elevated senescence markers: cell cycle arrest proteins p21 and p16, the DNA damage marker γH2A.X, senescence-associated β-galactosidase activity, and senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP).

Zinc (Zn) imbalance-deficiency or overload-is implicated in hepatocyte injury, yet its mechanisms and therapeutic strategies remain incompletely understood. This study investigated Zn dyshomeostasis-induced hepatotoxicity in AML12 hepatocytes and evaluated fisetin's protective potential in diet-induced Zn overload C57BL/6 mice for in vivo validation. In AML12 cells, both Zn deficiency and overload impaired hepatocyte viability and promoted oxidative stress, but only overload activated autophagy and the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) pathway.

Porcine infectious pleuropneumonia (PCP), caused by Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae (APP), is a highly infectious respiratory disease of pigs, resulting in significant economic losses to the industry. Apx toxins are cytolytic virulence factors produced by APP. The natural flavonoid fisetin has a variety of biological activities, including antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
