Protective role of S-adenosylmethionine on high fat/high cholesterol diet-induced hepatic and aortic lesions and oxidative stress in guinea pigs.

S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) is the main methyl group donor and has antioxidant potential. In this study, preventive and regressive potential of SAM were investigated in high fat/high cholesterol (HFHC) diet-induced non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in guinea pigs. They were injected with SAM (50 mg/kg, i.

The effects of enoxaparin treatment in a xenograft mouse model of oral squamous cell carcinoma: A pilot study.

Background: Recent studies suggest that enoxaparin may have therapeutic effects on oral squamous cell carcinoma. We aimed to assess this effect utilizing xenograft mouse model through evaluations of proliferation and angiogenesis markers at the RNA and protein levels.

Methods: Mice were divided into enoxaparin treatment (n = 4), positive control (n = 4) and negative control (n = 3) groups.

Targeted therapies in ameloblastomas and amelobastic carcinoma-A systematic review.

Targeted therapy has the potential to be used in the neoadjuvant setting for odontogenic tumors, reducing the morbidities associated with major surgery. In this regard, the aim of this study was to summarize the current evidence on the different forms of targeted therapy, effectiveness, and drawbacks of this course of treatment. Four databases were searched electronically without regard to publication date or language.

Adenoid 'ameloblastoma': Clinicopathological description of 4 additional BRAF-negative cases.

Objective: Adenoid ameloblastoma (AA) is an epithelial odontogenic tumor that was recognized as a separate entity in the last odontogenic classification of WHO in 2022. The etiology is unknown, and the pathogenesis remains controversial. The objective of this study is to contribute the clinicopathological features of 4 additional BRAF-negative cases to the existing literature, aiming to enhance the molecular understanding of this unique tumor in the forthcoming classification.
