Abstract Objective To evaluate the efficacy of Nd:YAG laser associated with calcium-phosphate desensitizing pastes on dentin permeability and tubule occlusion after erosive/abrasive challenges. Methodology Dentin specimens were exposed to 17% ethylene diamine tetra-acetic acid (EDTA) solution for 5 m...
ABSTRACT Objective: To characterize the calcium influx pathways implicated in the sustained elevation of endothelial intracellular calcium concentration, required for the synthesis and release of relaxing factors. Methods: We evaluated the effect of the newly synthesized pyrazole derivatives, described...
Abstract We previously reported that elevated extracellular calcium (Ca2+) levels increase bone morphogenetic protein 2 expression in human dental pulp (hDP) cells. However, it is unknown whether extracellular Ca2+ affects the expression of other growth factors such as fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2). ...
ABSTRACT The use of natural substances and micronutritional approaches has been suggested as a therapeutic alternative to benefit the bone healing associated with no side effects. Nevertheless, the influence of micronutritional interventions with therapeutic proprieties on the bone repair has yet to be i...
O presente ensaio experimental estudou o efeito da infusao de soluçao cardioplégica cristalóide a altas pressoes sobre a funçao endotelial de artérias epicárdicas de caes. Nao se encontraram alteraçoes a nível de receptores (curvas dose-respostas à ACH e ADP; da transduçao do sinal iniciado nos...
Se estudió la capacidad de la administración de calcio para revertir los efectos cardiovasculares del verapamilo en ratas anestesiadas y en aurículas aisladas latiendo espontaneamente. El verapamilo produjo descenso de la presión arterial media (Pa) de 31,0 ñ 5,6 mmHg, prolongación de la duración ...
