Comparing the Effects of Various Implant Abutment Materials on Gingival Fibroblast Attachment In Vitro by Mallikarjun H. Doddamani, Manish Varma, Sumit Bhatt, Veena Raghunath, A. J. Ashmi, Nirupama Vemali

“…Titanium exhibited the highest CAI (mean ± SD: 85 ± 4.5), followed by zirconia (72 ± 3.8) and PEEK (55 ± 4.2) after 72 hours (P < 0.05). SEM analysis revealed well-spread fibroblast morphology on titanium and zirconia surfaces, whereas fibroblasts on PEEK surfaces appeared less spread and more rounded. …”

Histomorphology and Immunohistochemistry of a Congenital Nephromegaly Demonstrate Concurrent Features of Heritable and Acquired Cystic Nephropathies in a Girgentana Goat (Capra fal... by Christian Mayer, Steffen Ormanns, Monir Majzoub-Altweck

“…Renal tissue sections were comprehensively investigated by histopathology (overview and special stains), immunohistochemistry (CD10, CD117, pan-cytokeratin, cytokeratin 7, E-cadherin, Pax2, Pax8, and vimentin), and electron microscopy (SEM, TEM). Histopathology of renal tissue sections revealed polycystic alterations of the renal parenchyma as well as conspicuous polypoid proliferates/projections of the renal tubular epithelium, which showed clear cell characteristics. …”
