(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-11-05)Therapeutic potential of human bone marrow stromal/stem cells (hBMSC) must be developed using well defined xenogenic-free conditions. hBMSC were isolated from healthy donors (n = 3) using different isolation and expansion ... -
Impact of type 2 diabetes and periodontal disease on oral status of Sudanese adults. Clinical, microbial and immune-inflammatory aspects
(Doctoral thesis, 2015-12-03)Diabetes is a major global public health challenge, afflicting 380 million people worldwide. The onset is insidious and progression is associated with irreversible medical complications, including oral diseases. Little is ... -
In Situ Expression of Cytokines and Cellular Phenotypes in the Lungs of Mice with Slowly Progressive Primary Tuberculosis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2000-06)The cellular phenotypes and the expression of cytokines were studied in the lungs of mice, using immunohistochemistry, during different phases of slowly progressive primary murine tuberculosis infection. During the first ... -
In vitro reconstruction of human junctional and sulcular epithelium
(Journal article, 2012)Background: The aim of this study was to develop and characterize standardized in vitro three-dimensional organotypic models of human junctional epithelium (JE) and sulcular epithelium (SE). Methods Organotypic models were ... -
In vitro toxicity of filler particles and methacrylates used in dental composite materials. Cytokine release and cell death
(Doctoral thesis; Peer reviewed, 2013-09-20)Dental polymer-based composite materials are complex materials consisting of several components, the main components being filler particles (inorganic component) and polymer matrix (organic component). The organic component ... -
In vivo host response and degradation of copolymer scaffolds functionalized with nanodiamonds and bone morphogenetic protein 2
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-03)The aim is to evaluate the effect of modifying poly[(l-lactide)-co-(ε-caprolactone)] scaffolds (PLCL) with nanodiamonds (nDP) or with nDP+physisorbed BMP-2 (nDP+BMP-2) on in vivo host tissue response and degradation. The ... -
Inequality in oral health related to early and later life social conditions: A study of elderly in Norway and Sweden
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-02-10)Background A life course perspective recognizes influences of socially patterned exposures on oral health across the life span. This study assessed the influence of early and later life social conditions on tooth loss and ... -
Inflammatory responses of immune cells and osteoblasts in orthodontically-induced bone remodelling and root resorption: in vitro and in vivo studies
(Doctoral thesis, 2014-11-07)Orthodontic tooth movement is achieved by remodelling of the surrounding bone in response to the application of appropriate compressive force (CF) to the tooth. Considerable evidence supports the roles of immune cells of ... -
Influence of bone marrow stromal cell secreted molecules on pulpal and periodontal healing in replanted immature rat molars
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-12-10)Aim. To investigate the effect of paracrine factors secreted from human bone marrow stromal cell (BMSC-CM) on pulpal and periodontal healing following immediate replantation of maxillary rat first molars. Material and ... -
