Effect of algae and plant lectins on planktonic growth and biofilm formation in...
Vasconcelos, Mayron Alves; Arruda, Francisco Vassiliepe Sousa; Carneiro, Victor Alves; Silva, H. C.; Nascimento, Kyria Santiago; Sampaio, A. H.This study aimed to evaluate the abilities of plant and algae lectins to inhibit planktonic growth and biofilm formation in bacteria and yeasts. Initially, ten lectins were tested on Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella oxytoca, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Candida albicans, and C. tropicalis at concentrations of 31.25 to 250 μg/mL. The lectins from Cratylia floribunda (CFL), Vatairea macroc...
Polymorphisms of genes encoding P2X7R, IL-1B, OPG and RANK in orthodontic-induc...
Pereira, S.; Lavado, N.; Nogueira, L.; Guevara Lopez, M. A.; Abreu, J. M.; Silva, H. C.ObjectiveOrthodontic-induced external apical root resorption (EARR) is a complex phenotype determined by poorly defined mechanical and patient intrinsic factors. The aim of this work was to construct a multifactorial integrative model, including clinical and genetic susceptibility factors, to analyze the risk of developing this common orthodontic complication. Materials and MethodsThis retrospective study inclu...
