background: the aim of this study was to investigate in vivo biocompatibility of resilon, compared with gutta-percha, at short and long-term following implantation in a rat subcutaneous implantation model. materials and methods: male wistar rats were implanted subcutaneously with either resilon or gutta-percha or were sham controls. tissues were harvested at 8 days or 60 days after implantation...

Implantation metastasis occurs when tumor seeds into a wound or tissue by a significant amount of viable tumor cells. Here we describe the case of a 30-year-old man suffering from pain and swelling of the foot, which was misdiagnosed as a bone cyst. Surgery was performed involving curettage followed by bone grafting. After surgical pathology, the exact diagnosis was revealed as the synovial sar...

background: integrins are heterodimeric glycoprotein receptors that regulate the interaction of cells with extracellular matrix and may have a critical role in implantation. the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of ovulation induction on the expression of α4, αv, β1, and β3 integrins in mouse blastocyst at the time of implantation. methods: the ovarian stimulated and non-stimulate...

Objective Osteopontin (Opn) is one of the co-factors which participates in cell adhesion and invasion during implantation process. Increased incidence of spontaneous abortion is reported in diabetic women. Several reports have shown Opn gene expression changes in diabetic condition in several tissues. Therefore, this study was designed to evaluate the effects of diabetes on Opn gene expression ...

background: there is no doubt that luteal phase support is essential to enhance the reproductive outcome in ivf cycles. in addition to progesterone and human chorionic gonadotropin, several studies have described gnrh agonists as luteal phase support to improve implantation rate, pregnancy rate and live birth rate, whereas other studies showed dissimilar conclusions. all of these studies have b...

to evaluate the effect of time and level of nitrogen application on quantity and quality of two carrot varieties, an experiment was carried out in the framework of a 4×3×2 factorial and based upon a randomized complete block design of three replications. the levels of 25, 50, 75 and 100 kg / ha of nitrogen fertilizer were investigated within 3 applied times, namely: simultaneous with bed prepar...
