Conditioned Medium from Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells Restored Oxidative Stress-Related Impaired Osteogenic Differentiation
Saleem, Ragda; Mohamed-Ahmed, Samih Salah Eldin Mahgoub; Elnour, Rammah; Berggreen, Ellen; Mustafa, Kamal Babikeir Elnour; Al-Sharabi, Niyaz Abdulbaqi Abdulmajid (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Oxidative stress from high levels of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) has been linked to various bone diseases. Previous studies indicate that mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) secrete bioactive factors (conditioned ... -
Contribution of initial lymphatics to oral wound healing after tooth extraction
Virtej, Anca; Marti, Larissa Alexandrina von; Wagner, Marek; Wiig, Helge; Xue, Ying; Bletsa, Athanasia; Berggreen, Ellen (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Lymphatics are involved in the resolution of inflammation and wound healing, but their role in the oral wound healing process after tooth extraction has never been investigated. We therefore sought to evaluate the healing ... -
Dental plaque microbial profiles of children from Khartoum, Sudan, with congenital heart defects
Mohamed Ali, Hiba; Berggreen, Ellen; Nguyen, Daniel; Ali, Raouf Wahab; Van Dyke, Thomas E.; Hasturk, Hatice; Mustafa, Manal (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)Few studies have focused on the bacterial species associated with the deterioration of the dental and gingival health of children with congenital heart defects (CHD). The aims of this study were (1) to examine the dental ... -
Fluid transport from the dental pulp revisited.
Berggreen, Ellen; Wiig, Helge; Virtej, Anca (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-10)In the dental pulp surrounded by rigid dentinal walls, an increase in fluid volume will be followed by a rapid increase in interstitial fluid pressure. To maintain pressure homeostasis, a fluid drainage system is required. ... -
