Study of Calcification of Teeth by Combination of Heterologous Tissues
نویسندگان
چکیده
We focused attention of the calcification ability of coral cells. A section of coral was transplanted to the cavity of a tooth and observed microscopically for calcification after 7 days (LI group) and 14 days (LII group) of artificial irradiation. Observation after 7 days (NI group) and 14 days (NII group) without artificial irradiation was used as a control. Calcification was observed in the LI and LII groups, while it was not observed in the NI or NII group. The results suggest that coral contains single-cell xanthella which accelerate calcification by photosynthesis.

Clear cellrenal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the most common malignant renal tumor in adults, while chromophobe RCC (CRCC) is the third most common. Any subtypes of RCC can undergo sarcomatoid differentiation, but heterologous differentiation in sarcomatoid area is very rare in RCC. Here a61-year male is presented with hematuria and palpable mass. Clinicoradiologically, RCC was considered and left r...

The role of oxidized high-density lipoprotein (oxHDL) and the protective effects of adiponectin in terms of vascular calcification is not well established. This study was conducted to investigate the effects of oxHDL with regards to inflammation and vascular calcification and to determine the protective role of adiponectin in attenuating the detrimental effects of oxHDL. Cell viability, mineral...
متن کاملRelationship of Conjunctival and Corneal Calcification with Secondary Hyperpara-thyroidism in Hemodialysis Patients
Background/Objective: Hyperphosphatemia is the consequence of end stage renal failure. Inadequate control of serum phosphorus results in elevated Ca×P product with subsequent soft tissue deposition in the form of conjunctival and corneal calcification. In this study, we evaluated the relationship of conjunctival and corneal calcification with secondary hyperparathyroidism in hemodialysis patie...
