Tenascin-C and type I and III collagen expression in total Achilles tendon rupture. An immunohistochemical study.

29 Sep 2009 Tendon tissue degeneration and changes in collagen composition play a role in spontaneous rupture of the human Achilles tendon. Tenascin-C has been shown to be present in the tissue pathology and changes in tissue loading. We made an ... Read more...

Cocultures of osteoblasts and osteoclasts are influenced by local application of zoledronic acid incorporated in a poly(D,L-lactide) implant coating.

29 Sep 2009 The antiresorptive activity of bisphosphonates such as zoledronic acid (ZOL) has been shown in vitro to be because of their effect on osteoclasts and osteoblasts. However, whether the effect of ZOL on monocultures might be reproducible on cocultures ... Read more...

Behavior of rat periodontal ligament cells on fibroblast growth factor-2-immobilized titanium surfaces treated by plasma modification.

29 Sep 2009 The aim of this study was to investigate the behavior of rat periodontal ligament (PDL) cells cultured on fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2)-immobilized titanium surfaces treated by oxygen (O2) plasma. We used cell disks (15 mm in diameter), and ... Read more...
