The concentration of TNF-alpha correlate with number of inflammatory cells and degree of vascularization in radicular cysts
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2008)
OBJECTIVE: To correlate values of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) depending on the count of inflammatory cells with degree of vascularization in cystic fluid of radicular cysts. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We investigated ...
Quantification of monomer elution and carbon-carbon double bonds in dental adhesive systems using HPLC and micro-Raman spectroscopy
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2009)
Objectives: To quantify monomer elution from different adhesive systems using reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and correlate this elution with the ratio of carbon-carbon double bonds from monomer ...
Intensive remodeling of Purkinje cell spines after climbing fibers deafferentation does not involve MAPK and Akt activation
(Blackwell Publishing, Oxford, 2007)
Subtotal lesion of the inferior olive (IO) achieved by treating experimental animals with 3-acetylpyridine (3AP) induces partial Purkinje cells (PCs) deafferentation that leads to PC hyperactivity and new spine formation. ...
Post space cleaning using a new nickel titanium endodontic drill combined with different cleaning regimens
(Elsevier Science Inc, New York, 2008)
This study compared the effect of two drills and five cleaning regimens on post space debridement. One hundred extracted premolars were instrumented and obturated with warm vertical compaction of gutta percha. The teeth ...
Calcitonin gene-related peptide levels in saliva of patients with burning mouth syndrome
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2009)
Burning mouth syndrome (BMS) is an intraoral burning sensation for which no medical or dental cause can be found. Recent studies suggest that primary neuropathic dysfunction might be involved in the pathogenesis of BMS. ...
Genomic instability and tumor-specific DNA alterations in oral leukoplakias
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2009)
Leukoplakias, clinically identifiable premalignant lesions, often precede oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Identification of leukoplakias that have the potential for transformation to malignancy is a key clinical ...
Comparison of the hybrid layer formed by Silorane adhesive, one-step self-etch and etch and rinse systems using confocal micro-Raman spectroscopy and SEM
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2008)
Objectives: To determine the extent of the hybrid layer (HL) of the novel adhesive system (Silorane, 3M ESPE) compared to one-step and etch and rinse adhesive systems, using 2D confocal micro-Roman spectroscopy and SEM. ...
Bcl-2 expression in oral squamous cell carcinoma
(Wiley-Blackwell, Hoboken, 2007)
Apoptosis is a genetically regulated process involved in tissue size regulation, morphogenesis, and elimination of genetically damaged cells. A pallet of genes is involved in the control of apoptosis, such as bcl-2 family ...
Kinetics and sintering mechanisms of hydro-thermally obtained hydroxyapatite
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2008)
In this paper, the kinetics and sintering mechanism of hydro-thermally synthesized hydroxyapatite in the temperature range 900-1100 degrees C are presented. It was found that at 900 degrees C, the sintering process is very ...
MAPK activation in cerebellar basket cell terminals after harmaline treatment
(New York Acad Sciences, New York, 2005)
The mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) are a family of signal transduction mediators that regulate a number of cellular activities, including cell growth and proliferation, differentiation and survival, via ...
