diabetes is characterized by a nitric oxide deficiency at the wound site. diabetes is a factor that influences all stages of wound healing. in animals with acute experimental diabetes induced by streptozotocin (stz), the early inflammatory responses after wounding is impaired, fibroblast and endothelial cell proliferation is reduced as well as accumulation of reparative collagen and gain in wou...

nano-graphene oxide was synthesized by the oxidation of graphite powders. the structural nature of the nano-graphene oxide was characterized by a variety of techniques including xrd, tem, ft-ir and uv/vis. the functional groups on its basal planes and edges of nano-grahene oxide play important role in catalytic activity. the catalytic activity of nano-graphene oxide was investigated on crossed-...

background: despite the wide range of applications, there is a serious lack of information on the impact of the nanoparticles on human health and the environment. the present study was done to determine the range of dangerous concentrations of iron oxide nanoparticle and their effects on mouse embryonic stem cells. methods: iron oxide nanoparticles with less than 20 nanometers diameter were enc...

Background: During the initial phase of an infection, there is an upregulation of inducible nitric oxide synthase in the macrophages for the production of nitric oxide. This is followed by the recruitment of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) which release arginase. Arginase competes with inducible nitric oxide synthase for a common substrate L-arginine. Objective: To investigate whethe...

introduction: ferric sulfate pulpotomy is a safe and effective method of the pulpotomy of primary teeth. but the results of different studies indicate low success rate of ferric sulfate pulpotomy in comparison to formocresol pulpotomy and a portion of these failures may be related to stimulating and harmful effects of zinc oxide eugenol paste. the aim of this study was to determine and compare ...
