This clinical report describes a combined lateral-crestal approach to elevate the sinus floor when placing implants on a wide maxillary posterior ridge. The buccally enlarged osteotomy broadens vision of practitioners and facilitates access of instruments in the sinus. Compared to the traditional lateral approach of sinus lift, the proposed technique may offer a more conservative treatment modality. And a clinical study with sufficient subjects and long term follow up is needed to validate the potential and limitations of the proposed technique.

While loss-of-function mutations in Cockayne syndrome group B protein (CSB) cause neurological diseases, this unique member of the SWI2/SNF2 family of chromatin remodelers has been broadly implicated in transcription elongation and transcription-coupled DNA damage repair, yet its mechanism remains largely elusive. Here, we use a reconstituted in vitro transcription system with purified polymerase II (Pol II) and Rad26, a yeast ortholog of CSB, to study the role of CSB in transcription elongation through nucleosome barriers. We show that CSB forms a stable complex with Pol II and acts as an ATP-dependent processivity factor that helps Pol II across a nucleosome barrier. This noncanonical mechanism is distinct from the canonical modes of chromatin remodelers that directly engage and remodel nucleosomes or transcription elongation factors that facilitate Pol II nucleosome bypass without hydrolyzing ATP. We propose a model where CSB facilitates gene expression by helping Pol II bypass chromatin obstacles while maintaining their structures.
