Aim: To evaluate the effect of applying a matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) inhibitor on the fracture resistance of root-filled teeth restored with Everstick fiber-reinforced composite resin.
Subjects And Methods: After the selection of 60 freshly extracted human mandibular first molar, root canal access and standard uniformly sized mesio-occluso-distal (MOD) cavities were made and the teeth were randomly assigned into three groups ( = 20 each): Group I, the MOD cavity was first lined with flowable composite resin and then restored with composite resin. In Group II, Everstick fiber was placed into the bed of flowable composite in buccal-pulpal-lingual direction before the composite restoration was placed.
Glycogen Synthase Kinase-3 beta (GSK-3β) is a crucial enzyme linked to various cellular processes, including neurodegeneration, autophagy, and diabetes. A structurally diverse set of 1293 molecules having GSK-3β modulatory activity has been used. Molecular docking and eXplainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) have been used concomitantly.

The morphological and structural properties of the prepared films were investigated by Field Emission Scanning electron microscope (FESEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Gas sensing and optical characterizations were carried out using Keithley electrometer and Uv-Vis.

The study objectives included evaluating and comparing the analgesic activity of both extracts at two different doses with that of the standard drug (aspirin) in Wistar rats using the rat tail-flick method. Method The study was conducted after receiving approval from the animal ethics committee.
