A Narrative Review of the Association between Dental Abnormalities and Chemotherapy.

Dental abnormalities are often detected in childhood and are reported to occur with high prevalence in patients who have undergone cancer treatment or chemotherapy.

Thirty-one articles about dental abnormalities matched the eligibility criteria and were extracted for this review.

Adaptation and immunogenicity of Cryptosporidium parvum to immunocompetent mice.

The adaptation and immunogenisity of Cryptosporidium parvum isolated from Siberian chipmunks (SC1 strain) in immunocompetent (ICR) mice were examined. The oocysts were received to the severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) mice by repeated passage. The oocysts collected from the 18th SCID mice were inoculated to 5 ICR mice.
