Open AccessArtemisinins inhibit oral candidiasis caused by Candida albicans through the repression on its hyphal development
Candida albicans is the most abundant fungal species in oral cavity. As a smart opportunistic pathogen, it increases the virulence by switching its forms from yeasts to hyphae and becomes the major pathogenic age...

Open AccessStress and movement trend of lower incisors with different IMPA intruded by clear aligner: a three-dimensional finite element analysis
During the intrusion of lower incisors with clear aligners (CAs), root disengagement from the alveolar bone often occurs, resulting in serious complications. This study aimed to determine the potential force m...

Open AccessERG3 and ERG11 genes are critical for the pathogenesis of Candida albicans during the oral mucosal infection
The hyphal development of Candida albicans (C. albicans) has been considered as an essential virulent factor for host cell damage. However, the missing link between hyphae and virulence of C. albicans is also bee...
