A Simple Critical-sized Femoral Defect Model in Mice
Published on: March 15, 2015
Abstract:
Recent research indicates that the thorough removal of calculus is still a critical step in the treatment of periodontal disease. Surgical access facilitates this in deep pockets. Repair is mediated by a long junctional epithelium as microscopically total calculus removal is rarely achieved. In intrabony defects the apical portion of the root surface which has not attracted deposits of calculus has the potential for connective tissue reattachment and regeneration if care is taken to preserve collagen fibres still attached to the root.

01:24Tissue Transplantation
Tissue transplantation is a significant medical procedure involving the transfer of cells, tissues, or organs from a donor to a recipient, with the primary aim of restoring lost functions. This procedure is crucial in treating a broad spectrum of diseases, including kidney diseases, liver failure, heart disease, and certain types of cancers.

01:11Healing I: Introduction
Healing is the physiological process by which the body restores the integrity and function of damaged tissues following injury. It involves a coordinated interplay of cellular proliferation, extracellular matrix remodeling, and growth factor signaling. The extent and nature of the tissue damage determine whether healing occurs by resolution, regeneration, or replacement.ResolutionResolution represents the most complete form of healing, occurring when the injury is minimal and tissue...
01:24Healing II: Complications
Complications during healing arise when tissue repair is altered by local or systemic factors. These changes involve abnormal collagen deposition, altered biomechanics, and reduced vascular supply, impairing restoration of normal structure and function.Loss of FunctionScar tissue differs significantly from the original tissue it replaces. In the skin, fibrosis lacks adnexal structures such as hair follicles, sebaceous glands, and sweat glands. Their absence reduces tactile sensitivity, impairs...
