(CIENCIAS, 2015)
Objectives: To evaluate the expression and localization of MUC1/SEC and MUC1/Y isoforms in labial salivary glands (LSG) from Sjögren's syndrome patients (SS patients), as well as their in vitro expression induced by ...
MMP-13 and TIMP-1 determinations in progressive chronic periodontitis
(CIENCIAS, 2007)
Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-13 is a collagenase involved in extracellular matrix degradation either by its direct degradative effects or by processing bioactive substrates. The aim of this study was to determine the ...
Severe spontaneous cases of bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaws
