Electron microscopy of induced heterotopic bone formation in guinea pigs
(Journal article, 1977)A high yield of osteoid and some mineralized bone was induced in the abdominal muscles following implantation of allogenic demineralised and lyophilized dentine. The following types of cells and reactions were found: A. ... -
Enzyme histochemistry of induced heterotopic bone formation in guinea pigs
(Journal article, 1979)In an experimental bone induction model in guinea-pigs, large amounts of heterotopic osteiod and bone were found after 21 days. A semiquantiative intrasectional analysis of oxidative and hydrolytic enzyme activities in the ... -
Microfilaments in cells associated with induced heterotpic bone formation in guinea pigs
(Journal article, 1980)Sera from active chronic hepatitis were used to demonstrate actin microfilaments in cells of a bone-induced model. Demnineralized and freeze-dried allogenic dentine was implanted in the abdominal muscles of Guinea pigs. ... -
Electronmicroscopic study of mineralization in induced heterotopic bone formation in guinea pigs
(Journal article, 1980)Mineralization of heterotopic bone was studied in a bone induction model using allogenic demineralization dentin implanted in the abdominal wall of guinea pigs. There was a high yield of newly formed osteoid and bone as ... -
Cellular reactions and mineralization in induced heterotopic bone formation in guinea pigs
(Doctoral thesis, 1981) -
Enzyme histochemical studies of induced heterotopic cartilage and bone formation in guinea pigs with special references to acid phosphatise. A light and enzyme electron microscopic study
(Journal article, 1981)Heterotopic bone and cartilage formation was studied in a bone induction model in abdominal muscles of guinea pigs using demineralized allogenic dentin as inductive material. The light microscopical study showed high ... -
X-ray microanalytical studies of initial mineralization in induced heterotopic bone formation in guinea pigs
(Journal article, 1981)Allogenic demineralized dentin implanted in the abdominal wall of guinea pigs induced heterotopic osteoid and bone formation. Samples of this tissue were frozen at -140° C, freeze-dried at -80° C, infiltrated with Spurr® ... -
Enzyme histochemical studies of acid phosphatise isoenzymes in induced heterotopic bone formation in guinea pigs
(Journal article, 1981)A bone induction model was used to study the effect of different pretreatments and inhibitors added to the substrate of acid phosphatise. Two different acid phosphatises (AcP) were demonstrated. The AcP of matrix-producing ... -
The composition of gingival inflammatory cell infiltrates in children studied by enzyme histochemistry
(Journal article, 1990-07)Gingival biopsies were obtained from 23 children, aged 5-11 years (8.6 ± 1.8 years). Specimens were taken from areas of the gingiva adjacent to the teeth which were to be extracted because of caries or its sequelae and ... -
Expression of biomarkers (p53, transforming growth factor alpha, epidermal growth factor receptor, c-erbB-2/neu and the proliferative cell nuclear antigen) in oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 1999)Using immunohistochemistry, expression of p53, transforming growth factor-alpha (TGF-α), epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), c-erbB-2/neu and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) was examined in 26 fresh frozen ... -
A Mouse Model for Slowly Progressive Primary Tuberculosis
(Journal article, 1999-08)The progression from primary Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection to disease is usually slow in humans. The aim of this study was to develop and characterize a mouse model for slowly progressive primary tuberculosis, using ... -
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 ... -
Both the environment and genes are important for concentrations of cadmium and lead in blood
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2000-08)Concentrations of cadmium and lead in blood (BCd and BPb, respectively) are traditionally used as biomarkers of environmental exposure. We estimated the influence of genetic factors on these markers in a cohort of 61 ... -
A qualitative and quantitative study of five selected periodontal-endodontic lesions
(Master thesis, 2005) -
Epithelial-mesenchymal interactions in normal and neoplastic human oral mucosa. A study on in vitro organotypic models
(Doctoral thesis, 2005-04-15)Epithelial-mesenchymal interactions are necessary for the development of oral epithelium during embryogenesis, but adult oral epithelium is also under the influence of mesenchymal tissue in both normal and neoplastic ... -
Dental caries in children aged 3-10 years : longitudinal and cross-sectional studies
(Doctoral thesis, 2005-12-02) -
Khat and Oral Microbiota. A microbial study with relevance to periodontitis and dental caries
(Doctoral thesis, 2005-12-16)Khat chewing is a highly prevalent habit in Yemen and East Africa. None of the few studies that investigated the effect of this habit on dental and oral health provides information about its influence on oral microbiota ... -
Clinical and socio-behavioral correlates of tooth loss: a study of older adults in Tanzania
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2006-03-15)Background: Focusing 50 year olds and above, this study assessed the frequency, extent and correlates of tooth loss due to various reasons. Frequency and correlates of posterior occluding support was also investigated. ... -
