An Intraoral Defect Model for Assessing the Use of P-4 Self-Assembling Peptide in Periodontal Regeneration.

Periodontal disease is one of the most common diseases worldwide. It has a significant impact on oral health and subsequently the individual's quality of life. However, optimal regeneration of periodontal tissues, using current treatments, has yet to be achieved.

l-Carnitine-induced amelioration of HFD-induced hepatic dysfunction is accompanied by a reduction in hepatic TNF-α and TGF-β1.

In this study, we evaluated the possible mechanisms through which l-carnitine ameliorates the adverse effects from obesity in rats, induced with a high-fat diet (HFD). For this, 56 albino Wister rats were randomly assigned to 7 groups. The control group was fed a basal diet and injected with saline.
