Abstract Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of peptidases trapped within mineralized dentin matrix and involved with degradation the extracellular components in hybrid layers caries. Despite their identification through indirect evidences biochemical assays, MMP‐2 ‐9 have not been localized human organic matrix. Thus, this study aimed to assess localization distribution by employing correlative field emission in‐lens‐scanning electron microscopy (FEI‐SEM) transmission (TEM)...
Mummy studies allow to reconstruct the characteristic of a population in specific spatiotemporal context, terms living conditions, pathologies and death. Radiology represents an efficient diagnostic technique able establish preservation state mummified organs estimate patient's pathological conditions. However, radiological approach shows some limitations. Although bone structures are easy differentiate, soft tissue components much more challenging, especially when they overlap. For this...
It has been hypothesized that cysteine cathepsins (CTs) along with matrix metalloproteases (MMPs) may work in conjunction the proteolysis of mature dentin matrix. The aim this study was to verify simultaneously distribution and presence B (CT-B) K (CT-K) partially demineralized dentin; further evaluate activity CTs MMPs same tissue. CT-B CT-K sound human assessed by immunohistochemistry. A double-immunolabeling technique used identify, at once, occurrence those enzymes dentin. Activities...
A novel cavity design based on a confocal negative branch unstable resonator configuration is presented. proper choice for the size of field limiting aperture, set at common focal plane mirrors, results in removal hot spot inside and smoothing spatial profile oscillating mode. Application this scheme to pulsed Nd:YAG oscillator thoroughly characterized variety operational modes (fixed-Q, Q-switching, mode-locking). The main are high efficiency energy extraction excellent phase amplitude...
Abstract The adverse effects of engineered nanomaterials (ENM) in marine environments have recently attracted great attention although their on benthic organisms such as foraminifera are still largely overlooked. Here we document the three negatively charged ENM, different size and composition, titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ), polystyrene (PS) silicon (SiO a microbial eukaryote (the Ammonia parkinsoniana ) using multiple approaches. This research clearly shows presence, within foraminiferal...
Abstract Background The gut microbiota constitutes a dynamic microbial system constantly challenged by environmental conditions, including physical exercise. Limited human studies suggest that exercise could play beneficial role for health, increasing diversity, even if the effects of on microorganisms depends its intensity and duration. This study aimed to investigate nine weeks high-intensity interval composition in healthy young adults. Methods seventeen male college students was analysed...
