RESUMEN
For treatment of patients with isolated and/or multiple adjacent gingival recession defects, debate exists as to whether minimally invasive coronally advanced flap-based surgical techniques achieve improved root coverage compared with traditional evidence-based techniques. Correction of gingival recession defects requires mucogingival surgery utilizing tissue grafting and/or soft-tissue alternatives. Traditional mucogingival techniques for root coverage using autogenous tissue are associated with patient morbidity and discomfort. Considering the philosophical shift in daily practice from "patient-centered" to "person-centered," minimally invasive surgical procedures are warranted that provide esthetic results with reduced morbidity. This review article evaluates five minimally invasive mucogingival techniques: semilunar, tunneling, modified tunneling, vestibular incision subperiosteal tunnel access, and pinhole. These surgical procedures and their clinical application are compared and contrasted.

Bispecific degraders (PROTACs) of ERα are expected to be advantageous over current inhibitors of ERα signaling (aromatase inhibitors/SERMs/SERDs) used to treat ER+ breast cancer. Information from DNA-encoded chemical library (DECL) screening provides a method to identify novel PROTAC binding features as the linker positioning, and binding elements are determined directly from the screen. After screening â¼120 billion DNA-encoded molecules with ERα WT and 3 gain-of-function (GOF) mutants, with and without estradiol to identify features that enrich ERα competitively, the off-DNA synthesized small molecule exemplar 7 exhibited nanomolar ERα binding, antagonism, and degradation. Click chemistry synthesis on an alkyne E3 ligase engagers panel and an azide variant of 7 rapidly generated bispecific nanomolar degraders of ERα, with PROTACs 18 and 21 inhibiting ER+ MCF7 tumor growth in a mouse xenograft model of breast cancer. This study validates this approach toward identifying novel bispecific degrader leads from DECL screening with minimal optimization.
