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 ...
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 ...
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. ...
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. ...
Light transmission through fiber post: The effect on adhesion, elastic modulus and hardness of dual-cure resin cement
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2009)
Objectives. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of fiber post light transmitting ability to the continuity of resin cement-root dentin (C-RD) and resin cement-fiber post (C-FP) interface, elastic modulus ...
Accelerated aging of adhesive-mediated fiber post-resin composite bonds: A modeling approach
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2007)
Objectives: Although fiber posts luted in root canals are not directly exposed to oral fluids, water storage is considered as in vitro accelerated aging test for bonded interfaces. The aim of the study was to evaluate the ...
Central cholinergic modulation of blood pressure short-term variability
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2006)
The role of neurally born acetylcholine in the central modulation of cardiovascular short-term variability was assessed using a pharmacological probe physostigmine, a cholinesterase inhibitor that can act centrally also. ...
Prevalence of oral herpes simplex virus reactivation in cancer patients: a comparison of different techniques of viral detection
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2009)
Oral reactivation of latent Herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection may easily occur in cancer patients. Virus reactivation can cause oral mucosa damage, worsen already existing lesions caused by stomatotoxic effect of cancer ...
Detecting long-range correlations in time series of dorsal horn neuron discharges
(New York Acad Sciences, New York, 2005)
We have studied the discharge dynamics of dorsal horn neurons by applying the detrended fluctuation analysis and the wavelet transform technique. We have adopted that the neuronal discharge dynamics is manifested by the ...
Effectiveness of a combination of platelet-rich plasma, bovine porous bone mineral and guided tissue regeneration in the treatment of mandibular grade II molar furcations in humans
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2003)
Objective: A combination of platelet-rich plasma (PRP), bovine porous bone mineral (BPBM) and guided tissue regeneration (GTR) has been shown to be effective as regenerative treatment for intrabony periodontal defects. The ...
