    Cell membrane-coated nanoparticles (CMCNPs) are a class of nanoscale carriers enveloped by natural cell membranes, which efficiently preserve the abundant functional proteins and receptors on the surface of cell membranes, thereby integrating the biological properties of natural cell membranes and demonstrating excellent biocompatibility and precise targeting ability in the field of biomedicine. In treating various oral diseases, such as oral cancer and periodontitis, CMCNPs have shown great potential and provide new research directions for overcoming oral medicine problems, emerging as one of the forefront topics in current biomedical research. This paper focuses on CMCNPs, presenting a detailed review of their preparation techniques and research progress in treating oral diseases. This article focuses on CMCNPs and deeply explores relevant mechanisms, application results and existing challenges, aiming to provide scientific and precise references for the subsequent academic research and clinical translation of oral diseases such as oral cancer, periodontitis, and oral mucosal diseases.

    Objective: To construct a survival prognosis prediction model based on gingival carcinoma patient data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database of the National Cancer Institute in the United States, and evaluate its effectiveness. Methods: Download relevant basic information, clinical information, and follow-up data of patients diagnosed with gingival carcinoma between 2004 and 2018 from the SEER database, and randomly divide the patients into a modeling group (70%) and a validation group (30%). Through univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis, variables were screened to determine independent prognostic risk factors for gingival carcinoma patients, and a nomogram was constructed. Evaluate the prediction model from three perspectives: discrimination, calibration, and clinical applicability. X-Tile software was used for risk stratification of the gingival carcinoma patients. Results: This study included 3334 patients with gingival carcinoma, with 3-year, 5-year, and 10-year survival rates of 59.03%, 48.89%, and 30.69%, respectively. The concordance index (C-index) of the modeling group and validation group were 0.715 and the 0.716, respectively; The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve results showed that the area under the curve (AUC) for predicting the 3-year, 5-year, and 10-year overall survival rates of gingival carcinoma patients in the modeling group were 0.757, 0.759, and 0.771, respectively. In the validation group, they were 0.747, 0.765, and 0.784, respectively. The C-index and AUC of the nomogram were higher than those of the traditional TNM staging system (P<0.001). The calibration curve results indicate that the nomogram model has good predictive accuracy. The decision curve analysis (DCA) results show that the nomogram has good clinical application value and is superior to the traditional TNM staging system.Patients were divided into low-risk group (<116.47), medium-risk group (116.47-213.24), and high-risk group (≥213.24) based on the cutoff value of the total score in the nomogram. There was a statistically significant difference in survival rate among the three groups (P<0.001). Conclusion: Age, marital status, histological grading, T stage, N stage, surgical status, and radiotherapy status are factors affecting the survival of patients with gingival carcinoma. The nomogram prediction model constructed in this study can provide reference for predicting the prognosis of gingival carcinoma patients.

    Heterotopic teeth are commonly found in the maxillary sinus, sinuses, etc., while ectopic impaction of the mandibular third molar is relatively rare. Cases of ectopic impaction of the third molar occurring in the condyle accompanied by dental cysts are even rarer. This article reports a case of mandibular condyle ectopically obstructed third molar with a dental cyst, aiming to provide clinical doctors with diagnostic and treatment ideas for similar diseases.

    Mammalian lipid droplets (LDs), a class of cellular organelles associated with metabolism, are composed of a neutral lipid core encapsulated by a monolayer phospholipid membrane. Initially regarded as static energy reservoirs with simplistic
    functions, recent advancements have significantly expanded our understanding of their biogenesis mechanisms and multifunctional roles. Beyond serving as central hubs for intracellular lipid metabolism, LDs actively participate in the pathogenesis of inflammatory and infectious diseases, while playing critical regulatory roles in host immune responses.
    This paper provides a review of researches in this area.

    Osteoclasts are bone-resorbing cells that play essential roles in both physiological bone remodeling and pathological bone resorption.Inflammation serves as a significant inducer of pathological bone resorption. Studies have shown that compared with homeostatic osteoclasts, osteoclasts that differentiate in an inflammatory microenvironment not only originate from specific osteoclast precursors, but also exhibit enhanced bone-resorbing capacity. Moreover, these inflammation-derived osteoclasts actively regulate bone destruction processes through crosstalk with stromal and immune cells. Therefore, osteoclasts in the inflammatory microenvironment are crucial for understanding the pathogenesis of inflammatory bone loss and developing targeted therapeutic strategies. This article reviews the differentiation mechanisms and functional properties
    of osteoclasts under inflammatory conditions.

    Objective: To report the clinical outcome of autogenous bone powder (ATB) combined with concentrated growth factor (CGF) in the treatment of bone defects after jaw cyst surgery. Method: Patients diagnosed with jaw cysts underwent routine surgical curettage of the cysts, followed by implantation of autogenous bone powder combined with concentrated growth factor
    into the bone defect area. Bone formation was assessed using cone beam CT (CBCT) 6 months postoperatively. Results: Good bone formation was observed in the surgical area.Conclusion:Autogenous tooth bone powder combined with concentrated growth factors can be used as a filling material for bone defects after jaw cyst surgery and can be applied clinically.

    Bone is a metabolically active organ that undergoes continuous bone remodeling throughout life to maintain bone homeostasis. Amino acids are the basic units of proteins, which play an important role in the regulation of material metabolism and information transfer, and amino acid metabolism is closely related to bone remodeling and the development of osteoporosis. Therefore, elucidating their linkages is not only essential for a full understanding of bone biology, but also helps to clarify the pathogenesis of osteoporosis and explore new therapeutic targets. In this paper, the research progress on the role of amino acid metabolism in bone remodeling and osteoporosis is reviewed.
