1. Role of MTH1 and MYH proteins in genotoxic effects of radiation
Abstract : Humans are constantly exposed to different types of radiations. It has been suggested that low dose and low dose rate of γ-radiation as well as ultra violet A (UVA) induce oxidative stress in cells that may promote mutations. READ MORE

2. Masticatory retraining effect on masseter muscle, facial morphology and alveolar bone structure in the adult rat
Abstract : The aim of this series of investigations was to study the effect of masticatory muscle retraining in adult rats with an earlier reduced masticatory muscle function on the craniofacial morphology, on the internal alveolar bone structure and on the deep masseter muscle. Material and Methods: Sixty young male rats received soft diet for a prolonged period, so that the animals developed weak masticatory muscles. READ MORE

4. Molecular genetic studies of colorectal cancer
Abstract : Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality due to cancer in the Western countries. Epidemiological studies have shown that at least 20-30% of CRCs have a potentially identifiable genetic cause. READ MORE

5. Role of oxidative stress response in radiosensitivity
Abstract : The quality of the ionizing radiation (IR) can be described in terms of its nature, photons or particles, and their corresponding energies. The energy is classified in terms of High or Low linear energy transfer that will produce a different distribution of DNA damage and other molecules in the cell either by direct action or indirect action.
