New stem cell studies find mechanism for regenerating lost teeth

Japanese researchers have identified two distinct stem cell lineages that drive tooth root and alveolar bone formation, offering key insights for future regenerative dental therapies.  The team from the Institute of Science Tokyo, used genetically modified mice and lineage-tracing techniques to shed light on the cell signaling mechanisms guiding differentiation in stem cells in the developing teeth. "Our findings provide a mechanistic framework for tooth root formation and pave the way for innovative stem-cell-based regenerative therapies for dental pulp, periodontal tissues, and bone," said Mizuki Nagata, Assistant Professor at the Institute`s Department of Periodontology. The ability to regenerate lost teeth and their surrounding bones is considered a holy grail in the field of dentist...

Northerners see Trump’s U.S. as greater threat to Arctic than Russia: poll – National

Northern Canadians see U.S. President Donald Trump’s America as a greater threat to Canada’s Arctic security than Russia or China, as the region attracts greater attention from both polar and non-polar powers, according to recent polling. The polling data comes as Canada’s foreign affairs minister is being warned that current tensions with Russia and China’s growing presence in the Far North is introducing a “high degree of uncertainty regarding the future of Arctic sovereignty.”Polling released in September by L’Observatoire de la politique et de la sécurité de l’Arctique (OPSA), a Québec-based research center, found that a full 37 per cent of Northerners felt the United States is the “most serious threat” to Canada’s North, followed by Moscow (35 per cent) and Beijing (17 per cent).“To s...

Poor air quality may worsen sleep apnoea: Study

Higher levels of air pollution may not only harm your lungs but also worsen health for people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), according to a multi-national study, that strengthened the connection between environmental health and sleep medicine.  While OSA is a common condition, many people do not realise they have it. People with OSA often snore loudly, their breathing starts and stops during the night, and they may wake up several times. The study, presented at the European Respiratory Society (ERS) Congress in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, revealed that, overall, for every one unit increase in PM10 -- tiny particles, 10 micrometers or smaller, released into the air by vehicle exhausts and industrial processes -- there was a modest but measurable increase in the patients` apnoea hypop...
