Analysis of the association of polymorphism in the osteoprotegerin gene with susceptibility to chronic kidney disease and periodontitis
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2008-10-01)
Background and Objective: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a complex disorder, which results in several complications involving disturbance of mineral metabolism. Periodontal disease is an infectious disease that appears ...
Periodontal disease-associated compensatory expression of osteoprotegerin is lost in type 1 diabetes mellitus and correlates with alveolar bone destruction by regulating osteoclastogenesis
(2012)
Alveolar bone resorption results from the inflammatory response to periodontal pathogens. Systemic diseases that affect the host response, such as type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM1), can potentiate the severity of periodontal ...
Immune-Inflammatory Cell Profile and Receptor Activator of Nuclear Factor Kappa B Ligand/Osteoprotegerin Expression in Persistent Apical Periodontitis after Root Canal Retreatment Failure
(Elsevier B.V., 2016-03-01)
Introduction: This study assessed the immune inflammatory profile and the expression of bone resorption activators receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand (RANKL) and inhibitor osteoprotegerin (OPG) in apical ...
Usefulness of a quick decalcification of bone sections embedded in methyl metacrylate: an improved method for immunohistochemistry
(SPRINGER TOKYO, 2008)
Immunohistochemistry of undecalcified bone sections embedded in methyl methacrylate (MMA) is not commonly employed because of potential destruction of tissue antigenicity by highly exothermic polymerization. The aim of the ...
Testosterone Regulates Bone Response to Infl ammation
(Georg Thieme Verlag Kg, 2014-03-01)
This study evaluated the alveolar bone response to testosterone and the impact of Resolvin D2 (RvD2) on testosterone-induced osteoblast function. For the in vivo characterization, 60 male adult rats were used. Treatments ...
Guided implant surgery: What is the influence of this new technique on bone cell viability?
(2013-03-01)
Purpose: To evaluate the effect of implant osteotomy on immediate bone cell viability, comparing guided surgery for implant placement with the classic drilling procedure. Materials and Methods: For this study, 20 rabbits ...
Parathyroid hormone protects against periodontitis-associated bone loss
(Int Amer Assoc Dental Researchi A D R/a A D RAlexandriaEUA, 2003)
Expression of opg, rank, and rankl proteins in tooth repair processes after immediate and delayed tooth
(2013-01-01)
This study evaluated the immunohistochemical expression of OPG, RANK, and RANKL proteins in the repair after immediate and delayed replantation of rat teeth. Fifty-six Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus albinus) had their ...
