a study was conducted to investigate the effect of follicular size (small,

introduction: nanoparticles are being increasingly applied in dentistry due to their antimicrobial and mechanical properties. this in vitro study aimed to assess and compare the cytotoxicity of four metal oxide nanoparticles (tio 2 , sio 2 , zno, and al 2 o 3 ) on human dental pulp stem cells. methods and materials: four suspension with different concentrations (25, 50, 75, 100 µg/ml) of each n...

introduction: this study aimed to compare the cytotoxicity of mta fillapex, ah-26 and apatite root canal sealers at different times after mixing. methods and materials: in this in vitro study, mta fillapex, ah-26 and apatite root canal sealer were spilled uniformly by 40 µm mesh in a 96-well plate. then, human fetal foreskin fibroblast cell line (hfff2) were added to each sealer cell culture me...

Transferrin receptor (TfR) has been explored as a target for antibody-based therapy of cancer. In the previous study, we reported a murine anti-TfR monoclonal antibody (mAb) 7579 had good anti-tumor activities in vitro. In an attempt to reduce its immunogenicity and enhance its ability to recruit immune effector mechanism in vivo, we herein developed its chimera in the baculovirus/insect cell e...

The 14F7 monoclonal antibody (MAb) is an IgG(1) antibody that reacts specifically with GM3 (NeuGc) and with tissue sections of human tumors. We demonstrated here that this MAb is agglutinin that specifically agglutinated horse erythrocytes. Additionally, the capacity of 14F7 MAb to mediate cytotoxicity against GM3 (NeuGc)-positive murine myeloma cells, in vitro and in vivo, was evaluated. High ...

How the seeds of Delphinium staphisagria promote hair growth in humans is yet to be discovered. This lack of information leads us to the investigation of hair promoting effects of seeds of Delphinium staphisagria in vitro. Extract prepared from the Seed of Delphinium staphisagria (ESDS) - traditionally used for hair loss treatment - was selected and tested for the cytotoxic and angiogenic poten...

Background: Human peripheral blood NK cells constitutively express CD56 and CD16 antigens. Peripheral blood NK cells seem to be strongly related with decidual NK cells, and may reflect the decidual NK cell functional status. There are varied reports concerning the relationship between NK cell cytotoxicity in women with recurrent spontaneous abortion. Objective: To study NK activity in women wit...
