pulp: fibrous changes pulpal stones –diffuse calcifications) DEFINITION : The pulp is a delicate mesenchymal connective tissue that occupies the pulp cavity in the central part of tooth. The normal pulp is pink‚ coherent soft tissue is noted‚ dependent on its normal hard dentin for protection. Dentin and pulp are embryologically‚ histologically‚ and functionally the same tissue and therefore are considered as a complex. Both dentin and pulp have a common origin from the dental papilla It is surrounded

Microbiology is involved in many aspects of human daily life. The food eaten to the showerheads in the bathroom contain thousands of microbes. Microbiology is evident in our lives and it is reported through various media. News reports have articles about microbes just like a recent article from Times Magazine titled Overcoming Obesity by Alex Park. Park featured article is about the problem of obesity in America and how different scientists are thinking of new manners to combat this epidemic

2. Experimental 2.1. Experimental procedure for the synthesis of bone-like CS-PEG-HA-ZrO2 nanocomposites (BNC I-III). At first‚ ZrO2 nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized by using the previously reported method [16]. Briefly‚ aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide (purchased from HiMedia Private Ltd.) (40 ml 0.05M) was slowly added in zirconium oxychloride octahydrate (purchased from Merck India Ltd.) solution (100 ml 0.01M) prepared in methanol-water (1:1) at 5 oC temperature. The mixture was stirred

Marfan’s Syndrome Marfan syndrome is an inherited connective-tissue disorder transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait. It is distributed worldwide‚ has a high prevalence rate and has pleiotropic manifestations‚ meaning one gene influences multiple traits that do not seem to be related. Mutations of the FBN1 gene on the 15th chromosome (more specifically chromosome 15q21.1) cause Marfan syndrome. The FBN1 gene is coded to make a glycoprotein called fibrillin-1

of the adipocyte tissues (Wang and Jones‚ 2004). Human pre-adipocytes taken from the human tissues were cultured and exposed to 100uM conjugated Linoleic acid for 24-94 h (Evans et al‚ 2000). This induced the release of the tumor necrosis factor as measured using DNA analysis (TNF- alpha)‚ causing apoptotic tissue death in human cells. TNF-alpha functions in preventing the development of preadipocytes to mature adipocytes and causes the delipidation of newly formed adipocyte tissue in humans (Sorisky

There is a wide range of application of biopolymers in medicine which include tissue engineering‚ wound healing‚ controlled release of drugs‚ post surgical treatments‚ etc. Their application in tissue engineering is mainly due to certain desirable qualities such as suitable surface morphology‚ mechanical properties‚ ease in processability and tailorability‚ degradability‚ etc. In the field of wound healing the traditional‚ less effective methods are being replaced by the use of biopolymeric scaffolds

works to protect your healthy cells from attacks by foreign substances‚ such as bacteria and viruses. If you have Polymyositis‚ an unknown cause may act as a trigger for your immune system to begin producing autoimmune antibodies that attack your on tissues. Many people with Polymyositis show a detectable level of auto antibodies in their blood. Polymyositis has a variation of complications. In severe cases‚ a patient may experience Aspiration Pneumonia. This complication means‚ to have difficulty

term Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva‚ because the ectopic osteogenesis occurs in the connective tissue within muscles‚ fasciae‚ tendons‚ ligaments‚ and joint capsules rather than in the muscle fibers themselves. It is a very rare autosomal dominant disorder that is characterized by swelling of the muscles‚ which is very painful for the patient‚ and also swelling of the connective tissues. It is typically diagnosed early‚ within the first few weeks of life‚ because of the congenital deformities

Treatment Abstract Ehlers-Danlos syndrome is a degenerative condition caused by the malformation of collagen within the body. Many different types of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome have been linked to different types of collagen malformation in different tissues. Hypermobility type Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (HT-EDS) is the most common type of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. HT-EDS is mainly characterized by marked joint instability and mild cutaneous involvement (Castori et al.‚ 2010). Although it is typically considered
