It’s a birthday celebration that grandmother Louise Bonito and her family will never forget: When she took a breath to blow out the candles on her cake, Bonito’s dentures came out instead. “They said, ‘Mom, make sure you blow hard.’

Migration of titanium dioxide microparticles and nanoparticles through the body and deposition in the gingiva: an experimental study in rats
The aim of this experimental work was to evaluate deposition of titanium dioxide (TiO2) microparticles and nanoparticles, which could originate from titanium bioimplants, in the gingiva. Wistar rats were injected intraperitoneally (i.p.) with a suspension of TiO2 particles of different sizes (150, 10, or 5 nm). The rats were killed 12 months post?injection, and the buccal and lingual gingivae were resected and evaluated using light and scanning electron microscopy. Energy?dispersive X?ray spectroscopy (EDS) was used to confirm the presence of titanium in deposits of microparticles and nanoparticles, and the concentration of titanium in tissues was measured using inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry (ICP?MS). Histological examination showed that all experimental groups e…

Cell toxicity of 2?hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA): the role of oxidative stress
In this study, the viability of human lung epithelial cells, BEAS?2B, was investigated after exposure to this monomer. Exposure to HEMA reduced the viability of the BEAS?2B cells as a result of increased apoptosis, interruption of the cell cycle, and decreased cell proliferation. Depletion of cellular glutathione and increased levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) were seen after exposure of BEAS?2B cells to HEMA. The glutathione synthase inhibitor, L?buthioninesulfoximine (BSO), was used to study whether the reduced viability was caused by glutathione depletion and increased levels of ROS. Similarly to incubation with HEMA, incubation with BSO resulted in glutathione depletion and increased ROS levels, without increasing cell death or inhibiting cell growth. The results indicate…
