    Th17 cell function in periodontitis
    Onyeama , Uzoramaka Udodirim; Angyal, János; DE--Fogorvostudományi Kar; Hernádi, Katinka; György Imre, Reznik
    Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease influenced by microbial challenges and host immune responses, with Th17 cells playing a central role in both protection and tissue destruction. These cells contribute to immune defense by producing cytokines such as IL-17, IL-22, and IL-23, which stimulate neutrophil recruitment, antimicrobial peptide secretion, and epithelial barrier integrity. This early response is crucial for controlling bacterial biofilms and maintaining periodontal health. However, when dysregulated, Th17 responses promote excessive inflammation, oxidative stress, and osteoclast activation, leading to alveolar bone resorption and tissue destruction.

    Liu, Chia-Yuan; Radics, Tünde; Fogorvostudományi Kar::Bioanyagtani és Fogpótlástani Nem Önálló Tanszék; DE--Fogorvostudományi Kar; Bakó, József; Üveges, Andrea; Fogorvostudományi Kar::Bioanyagtani és Fogpótlástani Nem Önálló Tanszék
    Zirconia ceramics are popular in dentistry for their strength, biocompatibility, and esthetics, with yttria content critically influencing their properties. Low-yttria zirconia (3Y-PSZ) offers high strength through transformation toughening, while high-yttria types (5Y-PSZ) provide better translucency but reduced bond strength. This study examines how yttria content affects adhesion performance and surface treatment effectiveness. Air-particle abrasion combined with 10-MDP primers remains the most reliable bonding method across zirconia types, though high-yttria zirconia requires gentler protocols to avoid damage. Bond strength tests and aging simulations reveal that higher yttria content often leads to weaker and less durable bonds. Tailoring adhesion strategies to yttria composition is essential for the long-term success of zirconia restorations.
