Vitamin E modifies high-fat diet-induced reduction of seizure threshold in rats: Role of oxidative stress
(
Elsevier Inc.
, 2019 , Article)
There is increasing evidence that oxidative stress is a causal factor in different neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease and epilepsy. High-fat diet (HFD) has been shown to induce oxidative stress and ...
Decreased weight gain and enhanced serum biochemical parameters in rats after vitamin D and Ca supplementation
(
Malaysian Journal of Nutrition
, 2018 , Article)
Introduction: Obese individuals tend to have lower plasma concentrations of calcidiol and higher levels of plasma parathyroid hormone (PTH). Objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of vitamin D and Ca ...
Porcine cholecyst derived extracellular matrix (p-CEM) for reconstruction of full thickness skin wounds in rats
(
Elsevier GmbH
, 2015 , Article)
An acellular cholecyst derived extracellular matrix (p-CEM) of porcine origin was prepared using anionic biological detergent. Healing potential of (p-CEM) was compared with commercially available collagen sheet (b-CS) and ...
Bovine reticulum derived extracellular matrix (b-REM) for reconstruction of full thickness skin wounds in rats
(
Elsevier GmbH
, 2016 , Article)
Thirty six clinically healthy adult Wistar rats of either sex were used in the study and randomly divided into three groups having twelve animals in each group. Under general anesthesia, a full-thickness skin wound (20 ? ...
Bubaline Cholecyst Derived Extracellular Matrix for Reconstruction of Full Thickness Skin Wounds in Rats
(
Hindawi Limited
, 2016 , Article)
An acellular cholecyst derived extracellular matrix (b-CEM) of bubaline origin was prepared using anionic biological detergent. Healing potential of b-CEM was compared with commercially available collagen sheet (b-CS) and ...
Differences in platelet-rich plasma composition influence bone healing
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc
, 2021 , Article)
Aim: Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous blood-derived material that has been used to enhance bone regeneration. Clinical studies, however, reported inconsistent outcomes. This study aimed to assess the effect of ...
The Role of Surface Chemistry in the Osseointegration of PEEK Implants
(
American Chemical Society
, 2022 , Article)
Poly(etheretherketone) (PEEK) implants suffer from poor osseointegration because of chronic inflammation. In this study, we hypothesized that adding NH2and COOH groups to the surface of PEEK could modulate macrophage ...
Biomimetic trace metals improve bone regenerative properties of calcium phosphate bioceramics
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc
, 2021 , Article)
The bone regenerative capacity of synthetic calcium phosphates (CaPs) can be enhanced through the enrichment with selected metal trace ions. However, defining the optimal elemental composition required for bone formation ...
The effect of aging on the bone healing properties of blood plasma
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Objectives: Age-related changes in blood composition have been found to affect overall health. Thus, this study aimed to understand the effect of these changes on bone healing by assessing how plasma derived from young and ...
Multiscale structural evolution of citrate-triggered intrafibrillar and interfibrillar mineralization in dense collagen gels
(
Academic Press Inc.
, 2020 , Article)
The mineralized extracellular matrix of bone is an organic?inorganic nanocomposite consisting primarily of carbonated hydroxyapatite, fibrous type I collagen, noncollagenous proteins, proteoglycans, and diverse biomolecules ...
