Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsInfluence of Degrading Calcium Phosphate on the Remodelling and Mineralisation of Avascular Osseous Tissue in a Rat Calvaria ModelTulio Fernandez, Carlos H. Valencia, Yuann Li et al.Artificial bone graftingis the subject of intensive investigation for craniofacial reconstruction. Among the syntheticcandi date materials, those incorporating Calcium Phosphates (CaP) have gained popularity, due to their osteoinductive properties. Despite many quantitative studies on the degradation rates of CaP biomaterials in vitro, there is lack of quantitative studies in relation to bone remodelling kinetics in vivo. In this investigation, we … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 24 Dec 2014 · 7,208 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDetection of Phytoplasma on Indian Fig (Opuntia ficus-indica Mill) in Mexico Central RegionRicardo Hernández-Pérez, Juan Carlos Noa-Carrazana, Ricardo Gaspar et al.Problem statement: The Indian fig (a species of prickly pear cactus), has been known as Nopal, comprises an approximate area of 100,000 ha, in plantations used for human consumption. "Pyramids" Indian fig area located in the northeastern State of Mexico has been an important Indianfig area in the country, with 15810 ha, where a phytoplasma has been consistently present in … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,729 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) Profile at Different Calcination Conditions for Synthesis of PTES-SBA-15Norhasyimi Rahmat, Nurjihan Sadon, Muhammad Abeed YusofThe aim of this work is to study the effects of calcination condition on the properties of mesoporous silica, SBA-15 modified with phenyl group of organosilane. Functional group SBA-15 were synthesized and hydrothermally aged. The surfactant template was conventionally removed by calcination at varied temperature and duration. Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) was employed to characterize the pure and modified SBA-15. The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 10 · 7 Apr 2017 · 8,453 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractSegmental Mandibular Resection for Conventional AmeloblastomaGeorges Abi Khalil, Georges Aoun, Banine Khalifeh, Toni ZeinounAmeloblastoma is an aggressive slow growing benign epithelial odontogenic tumor usually associated with an unerupted third molar. In this report, we present the case of a 71-year-old male with a large swelling on the left mandibular region causing a remarkable facial asymmetry. After clinical, radiological and histopathological examinations the diagnosis of conventional ameloblastoma was made. To avoid probable recurrence our … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 28 Oct 2021 · 6,586 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractA Case of a Young Patient with Acute Endocarditis and Challenging Diagnostic and Treatment DecisionsPau Rello, Teresa González-Alujas, Laura Escolà-Vergé et al.Despite advances achieved in recent years, Infective Endocarditis (IE) remains a disease associated with high mortality and morbidity. When it involves multiple locations at the same time, deciding the best treatment can become challenging. In some cases, especially in patients with prosthetic valve endocarditis, a definitive diagnosis can be difficult to achieve and multimodality imaging including Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 9 Jun 2021 · 7,382 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractFocalize the Structure of Myd88 in TLR Signaling Pathway to Modulate Innate Immune Response: New Target for Old DiseasesShuai Xing, Ping ZhouAll diseases have their Achilles’ Heel to target and this is especially true for immunorelated diseases which must be treated by targeting the immune system somewhere and somehow correctly. In the most recent decade, immunologists recognized that the Toll-Like Receptor (TLR) signaling pathway in innate immune system plays a double-edged role in the pathogenesis of many notorious diseases. Although the … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 6 Sep 2017 · 7,862 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,521 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractAre we Able to Harness the Immunomodulatory Power of Cytokines for Novel Autoimmune Disease Treatments?Giuseppe Nocentini, Graziella Migliorati, Carlo RiccardiSince the end of the 1970s, interleukin 2 (IL-2) has been known as a key player in T cell expansion/activation (Watson et al., 1980). In the late 1980s, some groups used IL-2 to stimulate the immune systems of tumour patients (Jacobs et al., 1986). The idea seemed brilliant and several attempts were made, but the results were disappointing (Lim et … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 22 Oct 2015 · 7,625 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA FAST AND ACCURATE METHOD FOR AUTOMATIC CORONARY ARTERIAL TREE EXTRACTION IN ANGIOGRAMSRohollah Moosavi Tayebi, Puteri Suhaiza Binti Sulaiman, Rahmita Wirza et al.Coronary arterial tree extraction in angiograms is an essential component of each cardiac image processing system. Once physicians decide to check up coronary arteries from x-ray angiograms, extraction must be done precisely, fast, automatically and including whole arterial tree to help diagnosis or treatment during the cardiac surgical operation. This application is very helpful for the surgeon on deciding the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 10 · 27 Jun 2014 · 8,296 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCell-Based Therapies in the Prevention of Solid Organ Transplant RejectionAdrian E. Morelli, Sherrie J. DivitoProblem statement: Organ transplantation is a life-saving and increasingly common procedure, as it often serves as the only treatment available for end-stage organ disease. Although the constant development of new and more effective immunosuppressive drugs has revolutionized the prevention and treatment of acute graft rejection, these drugs have significant toxicity, greatly increase patient susceptibility to neoplasms and infection and exert … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 26 Jul 2012 · 7,416 accessesView PDFCite
