Bond strength of repaired anterior composite resins: an in vitro study.
(1998-11)The objectives of this study were to investigate the repair potential of two commercially available composite resins in terms of bond strength, and the effectiveness of two commercially available adhesive systems used as ... -
Genetic regulation of mouse glycosylphosphatidylinositol-phospholipase D
(Elsevier, 2004-04-23)Glycosylphosphatidylinositol phospholipase D (GPI-PLD) has been proposed to be responsible for cleaving membrane-associated glycosylphosphatidyl inositol (GPI) molecules to generate inositol phosphoglycan (IPGs), which ... -
Human anti-anthrax protective antigen neutralizing monoclonal antibodies derived from donors vaccinated with anthrax vaccine adsorbed.
(2004-05-12)BACKGROUND: Potent anthrax toxin neutralizing human monoclonal antibodies were generated from peripheral blood lymphocytes obtained from Anthrax Vaccine Adsorbed (AVA) immune donors. The anti-anthrax toxin human monoclonal ... -
Molecular dissection of the human antibody response to the structural repeat epitope of Plasmodium falciparum sporozoite from a protected donor.
(2004-07-29)BACKGROUND: The circumsporozoite surface protein is the primary target of human antibodies against Plasmodium falciparum sporozoites, these antibodies are predominantly directed to the major repetitive epitope (Asn-Pro-Asn-Ala)n, ... -
Cognate peptide-receptor ligand mapping by directed phage display.
(2005-06-17)BACKGROUND: A rapid phage display method for the elucidation of cognate peptide specific ligand for receptors is described. The approach may be readily integrated into the interface of genomic and proteomic studies to ... -
A double-blind, crossover study of Biotène Oralbalance and BioXtra systems as salivary substitutes in patients with post-radiotherapy xerostomia.
(2005-09)This study assessed the efficacy of the Bioxtra (BX) and Biotène Oralbalance (OB) systems in the treatment of post-radiotherapy xerostomia. In a double-blind, crossover study, 20 patients with post-radiotherapy xerostomia ... -
Developments in denture teeth to prevent softening by food solvents.
(2007-08)The effect of various food-simulating solvents on the hardness of denture teeth after varying storage times, using a Martens hardness test was determined. Martens hardness (HM) was assessed at baseline and during storage ... -
Hardness measured with traditional Vickers and Martens hardness methods.
(2007-09)OBJECTIVE: To determine the differences, if any, between hardness measured with traditional Vickers and Martens hardness test methods on denture teeth under 2, 10 and 50 N loads. METHOD: Hardness of acrylic resin (VIV), ... -

Tuberculous orbital apex syndromes.
(2008-11)AIMS: To describe the clinical and radiological features of orbital apex syndromes caused by presumed tuberculosis (TB). METHODS: A review of the discharge summaries of all patients seen in the Medical Eye Unit (MEU), St ... -
Defects in CTLA-4 are associated with abnormal regulatory T cell function in rheumatoid arthritis
(National Academy of Sciences, 2008-12-09)The ultimate goal for the treatment of autoimmunity is to restore immunological tolerance. Regulatory T cells (Treg) play a central role in immune tolerance, and Treg functional abnormalities have been identified in different ...
