Xylogenic cultures of zinnia (Zinnia elegans) provide a unique opportunity to study signaling pathways of tracheary element (TE) differentiation. In vitro TEs differentiate into either protoxylem (PX)-like TEs characterized by annular/helical secondary wall thickening or metaxylem (MX)-like TEs with reticulate/scalariform/pitted thickening. The factors that determine these different cell fates ...

Large, atypical peripheral ossifying fibromas are known as giant peripheral ossifying fibromas.  These lesions have often been associated with heterogeneous clinical and radiographic characteristics subsequently leading to their misdiagnosis.  Biopsies have been the gold standard for the diagnosis of such lesions.  This study reports on an acute presentation of giant peripheral ossifying fibrom...

Zinnia elegans Jacq. is an ornamental plant, widely used in landscaping. Heavy-metal pollution urban and rural areas still increasing, which determines the actuality of studying plants’ reactions to pollutants. was not sufficiently studied this regard, so aim our research identify morphophysiological changes species under excess copper concentration soil. For this, we treated a growth substrate...

Amebloblastoma as the most common epithelial odontogenic neoplasm may occur in two forms of central and peripheral. This report presents a case of a 41-year-old Iranian female with a six-month complaint from a painless mass in the right posterior portion of the mandible. The case was diagnosed as an exophytic epulis-like peripheral component with characteristics of peripheral ameloblastoma and ...

background: invasive fungal infections (ifis) are chief infectious complications in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (hsct). however, the diagnosis of fungal infections is difficult, and often empiric treatment initiates. since there is no data available on the prevalence of antifungal drugs administration in allogeneic hsct recipients in iran, we decided to conduct t...

conclusions our results support the use of pns in some patients with refractory chronic headaches. appropriate surgical planning and technique are important to achieve good clinical outcome and to minimize complications. background subcutaneous peripheral nerve stimulation (pns) has emerged as a useful tool in the treatment of intractable headaches. however, complications such as skin erosion, ...

Involvement of the peripheral nervous system is one of the complications of multiple myeloma with a varying incidence of clinical and subclinical neuropathy in different studies. As most of the patients with multiple myeloma suffer from generalized systemic symptoms such as malaise, bone and low back pain, the clinical clues to the diagnosis of the neuropathy in its initial stages could be ...
