Histochemical reactions of periodontal tissues: a review of the literature.

مروری بر کاربردهای مهندسی بافت در شاخه‌های مختلف دندانپزشکی

Dentistry has been a field dominated by a constant improvement of synthetic biomaterials. Tissue engineering of tooth is coming to change the panel of the dental materials such as restorative materials and implants. Certainly, it is the largest transition in history of dental materials science in terms of accepting this new and exciting technology. The objective of this article is to present va...

Lectin Histochemical Study of Rat Reproductive Tissues Treated with Ether Fraction of Anethum graveolens L. Extracts

Introduction: Nowadays, there is special interest in finding a new contraceptive drug with high safety and fewer side effects. Investigations have shown that dill (Anethum graveolens L.) can be used either as a menstrual cycle regulator or contraceptive. Since cell surface terminal sugars have crucial roles in oocyte maturation, fertilization and implantation, in this study we investigated the ...

Is Photodynamic Therapy Effective in Treatment of Periodontal Diseases? A Review of Literature

Periodontal Involvement in Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiency: Review of the Literature and a Case Report

Objective: Leukocyte adhesion deficiency(LAD) is a scarce, autosomal recessive inherited disorder . LAD-I which is the most common type occurs due to mutations on the CD18 gene. This mutation leads to absence or severe reduction of leukocyte cell surface expression of ß2 integrin molecules which are necessary for the adhesion of the leukocytes to the endothelial cells, transendothelial mi...

Unique Carbohydrate Appearance of the Floor Plate During Early Neurolation

During early neurogenesis, the floor plate plays an essential role(s) in the differentiation of the ventral portion of neural tube. In this study, we detected the specific distribution of unique glycoconjugate during the floor plate differentiation. Formalin fixed paraffin sections of BALB/c mice (10-14 embryonic days) were processed for histochemical studies using horseradish peroxidase-labell...
