  abstract  = {Background Mandibular pseudocarcinomatous hyperplasia is a rare and generally benign pathology. We report on one of these rare cases. Case presentation The case history of a 73-year-old white man stated that he had a carcinoma of the oropharynx, which was primarily treated with radiotherapy and chemotherapy 4 years prior. As a result of radiotherapy he developed an osteoradionecrosis of his mandible and a consecutive pathological fracture of his left mandibular angle. Subsequent osteosynthesis was performed with a reconstruction plate. When we first saw him, his reconstruction plate was partially exposed with intraoral and extraoral fistulation. The resected bone of his defect-bordering jaw showed the typical pathohistological findings of an intraosseous mandibular pseudocarcinomatous hyperplasia. After a first reconstruction attempt with an iliac crest graft failed, definitive reconstruction of his mandible with a microvascular anastomosed fibula graft was achieved. Conclusions Intraosseous pseudocarcinomatous hyperplasia of the mandible is a rare differential diagnosis in maxillofacial surgery. Besides other benign epithelial neoplasms, such as calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor, squamous odontogenic tumor, or different forms of ameloblastoma, the far more frequent invasive squamous cell carcinoma needs to be excluded. A misinterpretation of pseudocarcinomatous hyperplasia as squamous cell carcinoma must be avoided because it can lead to a massive overtreatment.},

  abstract  = {Besides caloric restriction, a diet rich in fruits and vegetables is believed to delay the ageing process thus providing a powerfull tool in preventive medicine. To investigate underlying interactions between food ingredients and genes simple models, such as the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum, appear especially constructive. Here we show that 1 \% of a grape seed extract containing 30 \% of procyanidins, significantly increases the survival of T. castaneum at 42 °C when added to flour as a dietary source. The beneficial effects of grape seed extract could not be reproduced by supplementing flour with single catechins of which the oligomeric procyanidins consist. We identified previously stress resistance genes responsible for a survival extension by dietary ingredients and show here by the use of RNA-interference that a knockdown of transcripts encoding homologues of Nrf-2 or Jnk-1 block the effects of grape seed extract on survival. Interestingly, grape seed extract under knockdown of Foxo-1 caused a significant survival reduction, stressing the hormetic response as underlying the survival extension by the dietary interventions. In conclusion, our studies provide evidence that a procyanidin-rich extract is able to extend the survival of the model organism T. castaneum. Catechin monomers, however, appear not to mediate the effects. The active ingredients, moreover, need the presence of stress resistance factors, and here especially of Foxo-1, in order to promote their preventive activities with regard to degenerations.},
