Effect of local simvastatin application on mandibular defects
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2007)
Osteoinductive characteristics of bone grafts are important for enhancing osseous healing at grafted defect sites. The cholesterol-lowering drug simvastatin has been shown to stimulate bone formation by increasing the gene ...
Myelin basic protein AB-1 immunolocalization in rat nervous system
(DRUNPP-SARAJEVO, 2012)
Histology and immunohistochemistry (IHC) are rather effective methods for the evaluation of neuropathological changes. In spite of the widespread use of immunohistochemistry and cell type specific markers, the myelin basic ...
Evaluation of the Long-Term Results of Rat Cranial Bone Repair Using a Particular Xenograft
(ALLEN PRESS INC, 2010)
Bone defects that cannot be healed completely are termed critical-sized defects and can be used to test bone grafts for medicine, dentistry, and periodontology. The aim of the present study was to detect the effects of a ...
Assessment of the effect of a biphasic ceramic on bone response in a rat calvarial defect model
(WILEY-LISS, 2006)
Calcium phosphate ceramics are being extensively used for orthopedic, periodontal, and dental applications. This Study aimed to assess the effect of a biphasic ceramic such as Ceraform (R) on the osteogenesis in a rat ...
Investigation of the Cardiac Effects of Pancuronium, Rocuronium, Vecuronium, and Mivacurium on the Isolated Rat Atrium
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2011)
BACKGROUND: Pancuronium, vecuronium, rocuronium, and mivacurium are nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents that affect the cardiovascular system with different potencies. Their cardiovascular effects are clinically ...
Effect of magnesium sulfate, isradipine, and ritodrine on contractions of myometrium: pregnant human and rat
(BLACKWELL MUNKSGAARD, 2002)
Background. Magnesium sulfate, isradipine, and ritodrine are smooth muscle relaxants used for treating preterm labor. The aim of this study is to investigate the action profile of these drugs on the amplitude and frequency ...
Relationship between capillary angiogenesis, fiber type, and fiber size in chronic systemic hypoxia
(AMER PHYSIOLOGICAL SOC, 2001)
Whether chronic hypoxia causes angiogenesis in skeletal muscle is controversial. Male Wistar rats, 5-6 wk of age, were kept at constant 12% O-2 for 3 wk, and frozen sections of their postural soleus (SOL), phasic extensor ...
Evaluation of the cell death pathway and apoptosis-stunning effect relationship after low- and high-dose I-131 administrations in rat thyroid tissue
(MARY ANN LIEBERT INC, 2006)
Objectives: This study had two aims; (1) to describe the cell death pathway (apoptosis or necrosis) induced by a low and high dose of radioiodine (I-131) in rat thyroid tissue in in vivo conditions and (2) to determine the ...
Mycophenolate mofetil attenuates uterine ischaemia/reperfusion injury in a rat model
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2017)
This study evaluated the effect of mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) on uterine tissue preservation following ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Uterine I/R injury was induced in rats by clamping the lower abdominal aorta and ...
Chloride channel blockers 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino) benzoic acid and anthracene-9-carboxylic acid inhibit contractions of pregnant rat myometrium in vitro
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2001)
OBJECTIVE: We compared in vitro relaxant effect of chloride channel modulators, such as 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino) benzoic acid (NPPB) and anthracene-9-carboxylate (9-AC), and beta (2)-adrenergic agonists, such as ...
