Bone sialoprotein (BSP), an early marker of osteoblast differentiation, has been implicated in the nucleation of hydroxyapatite during de novo bone formation. Low-power laser irradiation has a stimulating effect on cells and tissues. Although the carbon dioxide (CO(2)) laser is a hard surgical laser, we have attempted to use it at low energy density to achieve biological alterations. To investi...

Introduction: Patient health education through information leaflets plays a very important role in the understanding about diseases, drugs and lifestyle modifications in diabetes mellitus. Aim: To develop and assess the quality and readability of patient information leaflet for diabetes mellitus. Methods: patient information leaflet for diabetes mellitus was developed by referring to various on...

Bone sialoprotein (BSP) is a mineralized tissue-specific protein expressed in differentiated osteoblasts that appears to function in the initial mineralization of bone. Calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)(2)) is a basic salt that has been widely used for a variety of applications in dentistry, due to its antimicrobial effects and its capability of inducing hard tissue formation. However, details of the m...

Immunization of C57BL/6 (B6) mice with FBL, a Friend murine leukemia virus (F-MuLV), induces both tumor-specific cytolytic CD8+ (CTL) and lymphokine-producing CD4+ Th that are effective in adoptive therapy of B6 mice bearing disseminated FBL leukemia. The current study evaluated the F-MuLV antigenic determinants expressed on FBL that are recognized by FBL-reactive CD8+ and CD4+ T cells. To iden...

The coexistence of ferroelectricity and spin-orbit coupling (SOC) in noncentrosymmetric systems may allow for a nonvolatile control spin degrees freedom by switching the ferroelectric polarization through well-known Rashba effect (FRE). Although FER has been widely observed bulk systems, its existence two-dimensional (2D) is still very rarely discovered. Based on first-principles calculations, ...
