Background: Recurrence rate of rotator cuff tears is still high despite the improvements of surgical techniques, materials used and a better knowledge of the healing process of the rotator cuff tendons. Large to massive rotator cuff tears are particularly associated with a high failure rate, especially in elderly. Augmentation of rotator cuff repairs with extracellular matrix or synthetic patc...

Introduction: Evidences show that parental morphine addiction impairs CNS development, learning and memory in offsprings. Regarding the role of glutamate in dentate gyrus on learning and memory, in this study the effect of parental morphine addiction on extracellular glutamate concentration of dentate gyrus was assessed. Materials and methods: In this study 20 female and 8 male rats were addic...

background: endometriosis, a common chronic inflammatory disorder, is defined by the atypical growth of endometrium- like tissue outside of the uterus. secretory phospholipase a2 group iia (spla2-iia) and fatty acid binding protein4 (fabp4) play several important roles in the inflammatory diseases. objective: due to reported potential anti-inflammatory effects of ω-3 and ω-6 fatty acids, the pu...

in the detergent industry. In this study, the extracellular alkaline serine protease gene, aprE, from Bacillusclausii was amplified by PCR and further cloned and expressed in B. subtilis WB600 using the pWB980 expression vector. Protease activity of the recombinant B. subtilis WB600 harboring the plasmid pWB980/aprEreached up to 1020 U/ml, approximately 3-folds higher than the nativ...

According to the National Institutes of Health and the Center for Disease and Prevention, it is estimated that 65 to 80 percent of the human infectious are caused by biofilms. Antibiotics and drainage of purulent discharge are the main treatment measures. But in chronic infections sometimes these findings are not easy to recognize. Biofilm is an extracellular polymeric conglomeration generally ...
