METHODS: Primary exposures were participant reported lifetime recreational and medical marijuana use …

Angiofibroma Of Soft Tissue: A Case Report, Mehruba Alam, Jake Robins

Annual Research Symposium

Differentiation between benign angiofibromas of soft tissue and malignant sarcomas.

The accurate diagnosis of this tumor is essential to prevent additional unnecessary treatments and/or surgeries. This can be achieved by proper genetic testing for the presence of markers including the NCOA2 fusion gene, CD34, α-SMA, and epithelial membrane antigen. Genetic testing is an essential component of accurate diagnosis as the appearance of these lesions can mimic other, more harmful neoplasms. Immunohistochemical analysis frequently shows the AHRR-NCOA2 driver mutation which is thought to be associated with t(5;8)(p15;q13), also commonly found in AFSTs. In combination, these immunohistochemical findings allow for accurate diagnosis …

Revolutionizing Denture Excellence: An Invigorating In-Vitro Exploration Of Organic Products In Prosthetic Rehabilitation, Nighila Ravindran, Sneha Joseph, Aswani Surya K

Annual Research Symposium

The denture base comes into contact with diverse substances in the oral cavity, acting as a reservoir for microorganisms like corynebacterium, streptococcus, lactobacillus, and candida. This colonization elevates the risk of complications such as denture stomatitis and candidiasis. Commercial denture cleaners have explored the use of natural ingredients, less commonly employed but offering various advantages. These ingredients aim to mitigate the potential issues associated with microbial colonization on denture surfaces, contributing to improved oral hygiene for denture wearers. The exploration of natural elements reflects a nuanced approach to denture care, considering both efficacy and less conventional alternatives.

Shilajit Elicits Apoptosis And Suppresses Cell Migration In Oral Cancer Cells Through Targeting Urokinase-Type Plasminogen Activator (Upa) And Its Receptor (Upar) And Chemokine Signaling Pathways, Abdullah Alqahtani, Jagadish Hosmani, Abdullah Alqarni, Nasser Alhamid

Annual Research Symposium

Shilajit (Mumio) is a humic substance with a dark brown colour that comes from rocks found at high altitudes. For centuries, shilajit has been a widely employed traditional medicinal remedy to address various physical ailments. Given the prevalence of oral cancer, there is a growing need for more effective therapies in its treatment.

In this in vitro study, the impact of shilajit on normal human gingival fibroblast cells (hGFs) and oral cancer cells (KB-1, subline of the KERATIN-forming tumor cell line HeLa) was compared. The MTT and Annexin-V tests were used to measure the KB-1 cells growth and apoptosis after …
