i ntroduction: nano-hydroxyapatite (nha) has been used for regeneration of osseous defects. calcium-enriched mixture (cem) cement is also used for various dental treatments. this trial compared the efficacy of nha and cem cement for direct pulp capping (dpc) of sound primary teeth. methods and materials: in this randomized clinical trial with split-mouth design, after attaining informed consent...

To understand the control of glial tumor cell proliferation, we have examined the effects of neurons on a number of human and rodent glioma lines. These included C6, G26-24, U-251, HTB-16, and A-172 cells of astroglial lineage and G26-20 of bipotential astrocytic and oligodendrocytic lineage. Rapid, specific binding of granule neurons to the human A-172, HTB-16, and U-251 and mouse G26-24 cell ...

Jaringan komputer tentunya sangat dibutuhkan oleh sebuah institusi maupun perusahaan untuk dapat melakukan pertukaran data mengerjakan pekerjaan dengan koneksi internet, maka bandwidth perlu diatur kerja perusahaan, karena adanya internet penyebaran menjadi efisien dan informasi semakin luas. Akan tetapi, realitanya jaringan pada tidak selalu memberikan akses yang baik ketika user bekerja inter...

Escherichia coli is the major causative agent of human cystitis. In this study, a preliminary molecular analysis carried out by PCR (polymerase chain reaction) demonstrated that 100% of 31 E. coli strains isolated from patients with recurrent UTIs (urinary tract infections) showed the presence of the curli fimbria gene (csgA). Curli fimbria is known to be associated with bacterial biofilm forma...

AIM To study the efficacy of novel rhenium compounds to treat triple node negative breast cancer. PLACE AND DURATION Six (6) novel rhenium pentycarbanato compounds (PC1-6) were synthesized and triple node negative breast cancer cell lines HTB-132 and Balb/c mouse kidney cell lines were treated with each of them for 48 hours. The results were analyzed by a common trypan blue cell death assay s...

Topological insulators (TIs) are a class of materials which insulating in their bulk form yet, upon introduction an boundary or edge, e.g. by abruptly terminating the material, may exhibit spontaneous current along boundary. This property is quantified topological indices associated with either edge system. In field condensed matter physics, tight binding (discrete) approximate models, parametr...

Activated microglia cells are well recognized as mediators of neuroinflammation, as they release nitric oxide and pro-inflammatory cytokines in various neuroinflammatory diseases. Thus, suppressing microglial activation may alleviate neuroinflammatory and neurodegenerative processes. In the present study, we synthesized and investigated the anti-neuroinflammatory effect of a novel HTB (2-hydrox...

The multidrug resistance (MDR) proteins that belong to the ATP-binding casette superfamily are present in a majority of human tumors and are an important final cause of therapeutic failure. Therefore, compounds which inhibit the function of the MDR-efflux proteins may improve the cytotoxic action of anticancer chemotherapy. The effects of carotenoids were studied on the activity of the MDR-1 ge...

INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical and histological status of the pulp in sound human premolars after direct pulp capping (DPC) with four different DPC methods/materials. METHODS AND MATERIALS This study was conducted on eight volunteers who had to extract four first premolars due to orthodontic treatment. Subsequent to tooth isolation, standardized class I occlus...
