Publicity Secretary of the All Peoples Congress (APC) in Edo State, Joseph Osagiede, yesterday, February 4, called for the investigation of recent attacks and ‘bombings’ in the state by the Department of State Services (DSS), the Nigerian Police and other security agencies in the state.
Osagiede, while making this call in an exclusive interview with Info Daily noted that when incidents happen in a particular pattern, there is need for every reasonable and right thinking person to understand a particular person is responsible for the whole thing.
Indicting the the National Chairman for the series of attacks in the state and tracing polical attacks to Auchi, Osagiede recalled how the then deputy governor was attacked at Auchi during campaign, Ize-Iyamu wife’s clinic was attacked and one Mr Frank’s house was vandalised, stressing that all fingered Oshiomhole as the man behind the attacks then.
He said, “On the 19th of October, 2014, Ize-Iyamu came out to say that his wife’s clinic was attacked with the aim of killing her, thinking that he was also there, with the aim of killing both of them, and that he was very sure that the attack was carried out by Oshiomhole.
“In 2016, during the campaign period, Doctor Pius Odubu went to Auchi for a political rally, boys came from no where and used guns and machetes to chase them away. They injured a lot of people including the orderly of the deputy gov. He was injured in the eyes; bullet entered his eyes.
“We also know that a few kilometers away from Auchi in Iyamho, the governor (Obaseki) and his entourage which included the Oba of Lagos and the chancellor of the university were attacked right in front of Oshiomhole’s house with guns and machetes. So, why is it that it is always Auchi and its environs that we are seeing all these attacks? Why is it that it is people who are in disagreement with Oshiomhole that are always attacked”, Osagiede questioned.
He re-echoed that the National Chairman has been suspended and he remains suspended going by the constitution of the party.
“The ward suspended him, the local government approved it and the state approved it too.The constitution of our party is very clear. If you are suspended from the ward, and the local government and the state rectified it, you stand suspended as a member of the party, so we don’t regard him as a member of the party any more”, he said.
Responding to questions on how the party has been factionalized, the publicity secretary argued that APC remains one in the state, adding that some persons are Impersonating the party but not APC but Edo Peoples Moment (EPM).
“We don’t regard them as APC members, they are Edo Peoples Movement (EPM) members and that is why we are saying don’t hold a rally when you are not a member of APC. How can you hold a rally when the state chairman is not aware; when I as publicity secretary is not there; when the gov who is the leader of the party is not there”, he added.
Attempt to hear from the National Chairman’s camp by Info Daily was proved abortive as his spokesperson declined to speak but referred our reporter to the local APC in the state, adding that he was not in position to speak.
Calls put across to the local APC were not going through as at press time.
3 Lawyers Docked For Impersonating CBN, Unity Bank In N52m Judgment Debt
The Federal Government has charged three Abuja-based legal practitioners before a High Court of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, on four counts of criminal charges, bordering on false information with the intent to mislead the Court into entering a N52m consent judgment in their favour.
The prosecution agency, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission(EFCC) told the court that the offences are contrary to sections 96 and 140 of the Panel Code law of Northern Nigeria as applicable in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.
The lawyers are Messrs Maxwell Opara, Gold Nwankwo and Jubilate Obasikene, all practising in the law firm of Maxwell Opara and Associates.
The charge filed marked CR/444/2022 and by the prosecution counsel, Ibrahim Buba followed a petition by the Central Bank of Nigeria CBN, to the Chairman of the EFCC, accusing the lawyers of fraudulent representation and impersonation.
They were alleged to have fraudulently entered appearances for the CBN and Unity Bank Plc, without the consent and authorization of the banks in an appeal in respect of garnishee proceedings involving the sum of N52 million, at the Court of Appeal, Abuja division.
The proceedings were in respect of appeal No: CA/A/18M/2017, between Mr. Godwin Emmanuel Vs Chris Obot. Ambo Top Nig Ltd, Unity Bank Plc and CBN.
The appeal arose from garnishee proceedings wherein the CBN was served with an order Nisi dated November 3, 2015, by the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory, Gwagwalada, Abuja.
The Court of Appeal had granted the CBN leave to appeal against the judgment of the lower court on the condition that the entire judgment sum of N52m be deposited to the deputy Registrar to be kept in an interest-yielding account in a commercial bank within 30 days from the date of the ruling, pending the determination of the appeal.
The CBN said it was surprising to learn that the matter came up for hearing on September 9, 2020, and that on that day, based on the application filed by counsel to the judgment creditor, Maxwell Opara, the court ordered that the judgment sum be released to the judgment creditor.
The bank asserted that its concern was the fact that neither the bank nor its counsel was served with any hearing notice in respect of the proceedings of September 9, 2020.
That it was further informed that CBN was purportedly represented by one Gold Nwankwo in the proceedings of September 9, 2020, a counsel unknown to or briefed by the bank nor affiliated in any way to any of its external solicitors.
That in the same vein, One Okechukwu Jubilate Obasikene was said not to have the authority of Unity bank and also appeared for Unity bank in the proceedings.
Upon investigation, it was discovered that the said Gold Nwankwo was listed on the letterhead of Messrs. Maxwell Opara and Associates(counsel to the judgment creditor), as one of its lawyers in chambers.
That it, therefore, appears that the counsel from the chambers of Messrs. Maxwell Opara and Associates representing the judgment creditor, might have colluded to deceive the Court of Appeal by impersonating the counsel briefed by the CBN, contrary to the legal practitioners’ rules of professional conduct.
Meanwhile, when the case was called for trial, the prosecution counsel, Ibrahim Buba informed the court about the absence of witnesses from the CBN and Unity Bank in court.
He, therefore, urged the court to grant a short adjournment to enable him produce them in court.
Following the consent of the defence of counsel, Justice Hamza Muazu adjourned the case to February 1 and 2, 2023 for trial.
The charge marked CR/444/2022, and dated August 26, 2022, reads:
“That you Barrister Maxwell Okpara and Barrister Gold Nwankwo sometime in September 2020 in Abuja within the judicial division of the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Abuja, did conspire to commit an offence to wit: giving false information with intent to mislead public servant and thereby committed an offence contrary to section 96 of the Penal Code law of Northern Nigeria as applicable in the FCT, and punishable under section 97 of the same law.
”That you Barrister Gold Nwankwo on the 9th day of September 2020 in Abuja within the judicial division of the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Abuja, did inform the Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja that you were representing the Central Bank of Nigeria during the hearing of appeal No CA/A/18/M/2017 and consented to the withdrawal and striking of the motion paper dated August 29, 2020 and filed on September 1, 2020, knowing that the Central Bank of Nigeria never authorised you to represent it in the proceedings, and you thereby committed an offence contrary to section 140 of the Penal Code law of the Northern Nigeria as applicable in the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Abuja, and punishable under section 140 of the same law.
”That you Barrister Maxwell Okpara and Barrister Jubilate Obasikene sometime in September 2020 in Abuja within the judicial division of the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Abuja, did conspire to commit an offence to wit: giving false information with the intent to mislead public servant and thereby committed an offence contrary to section 96 of the Penal Code law of Northern Nigeria as applicable in the FCT, and punishable under section 97 of the same law.
”That you Barrister Jubilate Obasikene on the 9th of September 2020 in Abuja within the judicial division of the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Abuja, did inform the Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja, that you represented the Unity Bank Plc during the hearing of appeal No CA/A/18/M/2017, and consented to the withdrawal and striking out of the motion paper dated August 29, 2020, and filed on September 1, 2020, knowing that the Unity Bank Plc never authorised you to represent it in the proceedings and you thereby committed an offence contrary to section 140 of the Penal Code law of the Northern Nigeria as applicable in the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Abuja, and punishable under section 140 of the same law.

The President of the Municipal Assembly in the eastern town of Srebrenica, Camil Durakovic, submitted the first criminal complaint alleging genocide denial in Bosnia after the new law the High Representative imposed in the country came into force on Wednesday.
The former mayor of Srebrenica posted his complaint against Branimir Djuricic, a journalist working for the public broadcaster in Bosnia’s Serb-majority Republika Srpska (RS) entity, RTRS, on Twitter.
The outgoing High Representative in BiH who is tasked with overseeing the civilian implementation of the 1995 Dayton Peace Agreement, Valentin Inzko, used his special powers on Friday to impose amendments to the BiH’s Criminal Code which sanction the glorification of war criminals convicted by final and binding judgments, as well as the denial of genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes.
“From the day of the decision to amend the Criminal Code until today, we could hear different political views on the issue itself, but as of today, the law is applicable to the entire territory of BiH. As of today, it will be possible to file criminal charges against those who deny genocide and other crimes,” Durakovic told N1.
“For the first time, we have a legal basis to report those who publicly deny genocide. Yesterday in Srebrenica, the RS veterans’ organization put up posters depicting war criminal Ratko Mladic, whom they called a hero,” he noted.

This session was recorded just about a year before Teddi King's untimely death at the early age of 48 from a breakdown of her immune system, weakened by lupus. Lovers and Losers was the second of three albums King made in the 1970s after a 14-year hiatus from the recording studios, during which she worked in TV and clubs (exclusively in Playboy clubs for a period of eight years). Influenced by the honeyed delivery of Mildred Bailey as well as the heavy vibrato of Sarah Vaughan, King eventually drifted toward a middle ground and this journey to the center is reflected on this CD, although the vibrato is more pronounced than on her earlier recordings. Joined by Audiophile's house trio of Loonis McGlohon, Mel Alexander, and Jim Lackey, King continues to show her immaculate sense of timing and feel for phrasing the lyrics on such tunes as "A Sunday Kind of Love" and a delicately rendered and haunting "Blackberry Winter." King could always swing, and she puts that talent to use on "Honeysuckle Rose," with added verse. Her ability to take tunes that didn't quite catch the public's fancy and make something of them is revisited with her fun styling of "Slightly Less Than Wonderful" and "There's a Man in My Life," both by Fats Waller. Her voice is more mature and deeper than it was in the 1950s, when she made some outstanding albums for RCA. It had also lost some of its vibrancy, probably due to illnesses that seemed to plague King. Nonetheless, King showed that, despite her health trouble, she could still perform with both polish and bounce.
Lovers and Losers Review

Almost 13 years ago, on my 15th birthday, I dragged myself out of bed to the first day of my sophomore year. Since I went to a tech school, I was kicking off the year in shop. I’d chosen Culinary, but was already regretting my choice. I knew they were going to make me take off my black nail polish, and I hated bare nails. I straightened my hair, packed my checked chef’s uniform, and left the nail polish on. They could go screw.
I was in what I now lovingly refer to as my Goth stage. And you know what? I may wear non-black clothing now, but once you go Goth, you never really go back.
Silently vowing to tell no one it was my birthday, lest they make a big stupid deal out of it, I sat in the theory room while Chef Curry took attendance and gave us our morning theory lesson. I’d loved him my freshman year, but for some reason, he kept referring to me as “Sandra,” and it was getting on my last nerve. I’d noticed there was a new girl but didn’t care. I wasn’t really friends with anyone, and I didn’t plan on changing that.
Still, as the morning passed, all of the chefs kept mistaking me for this Sandra. It pissed me off.
“Liz. I’m Liz,” I reminded Chef Curry yet again, even as he ordered me over to pot sink—punishment for the nail polish.
Then, for the first time, I came face to face with her.
“Sandy,” she introduced herself. Neither of us loved our full names.
We sized each other up. I showed her how the pot sink worked—wash, rinse, bleach, dry—and we realized we’d both been banished to that station because we both had nail polish on. She wasn’t so bad, I decided. We also realized that the chefs had been confusing us all morning. They thought we were twins. As the day wore on, this bothered us less and less. As the years have passed, we’ve long gotten used to it. It’s even worked to our advantage.
13 years of friendship. Most people would consider that unlucky, but neither of us believe in that kind of thing. Fate, though… I wonder, sometimes.
We don’t always see eye to eye, but we tell each other like it is. Our bond runs deeper than blood and, though I’m not religious and don’t believe in any kind of higher power, sometimes I wonder if it was meant to be. Because even though over the years the landscape of our friendship has changed—babies, marriages, careers—its substance has not. It’s grown deeper, if anything.
She’s seen me through some impossibly difficult times. Even when I completely broke and pushed everyone away, she pushed right back. I’ve seen her birth babies while juggling serious health conditions. She raises her children with gentle love and iron integrity, and chases her dreams with laser focus and shining talent. She cheers me on even long after I’ve lost my drive and I’m only stubbornly tripping forward. Girl’s got fantastic taste in music, books, and movies. Her eye for detail and the photos she captures are stunning.
It’s almost eerie, how we can read each other’s thoughts and emotions even while miles apart. You could say it’s the long years of companionship, but we were doing that even when we were teenagers.
On that first day, I confessed to her that it was my birthday. This was sometime after the pot sink faucet shot off the sink and into the high ceiling, soaking us both through, and before she slipped and fell flat on her back in the cafeteria. That’s another trait we have in common: utter clumsiness. I’m pretty sure those two moments sealed the deal.
I love this woman to pieces and would do anything for her. It sounds cliche but it’s true. I do, and I have—and vice versa. I couldn’t have picked a better lifelong friend.
Happy National Best Friends Day, my love. Here’s to almost 13 years—your favorite number—and many, many more.

Bystanders run after hearing gunshots at a show on July 4th in Illinois
At least six people were killed and 30 others injured in a military shooting at an Independence Day parade in Illinois Monday morning.
Police reported that Robert E. Cremo, a man in his 20s, was an interested person in the shooting and took him into custody after an hours-long chase around Highland Park.
A rooftop gunman opened fire during a show on July 4 in a Chicago suburb, police said, sending hundreds of protesters and parents with strollers and children on bicycles fleeing in terror.
While “a number of dead” died at the scene, one of them died of his injuries in hospital, according to the authorities.
Mexico’s director of North American affairs said on Twitter that among the dead was a Mexican national, Roberto Velasco. He added that two other Mexicans were injured in the accident.
About 26 of the wounded, aged eight to 85, were sent to the North Shore University Health Center. All but one of them had gunshot wounds, said medical director for emergency preparedness, Dr. Brigham Temple.
A man named “person of interest” has been taken into custody
Authorities said a man named as someone in the shooting was taken into police custody Monday night after an hours-long chase around Highland Park.
Highland Park Police Chief Lou Jugmen said a police officer stopped Robert E. Cremo about five miles north of the shooting site, several hours after police released the man’s photo and that of his silver Honda Fit, and warned the public that he was likely armed. And dangerous.
Authorities initially said he was 22, but an FBI and Kremo social media post said he was 21.
Police refused to immediately identify him as a suspect, but said that identifying him as a person of interest, and making his name and other information public was a serious step.

More than 30 injured in July 4th shooting
As many as 30 people were injured in the shooting during the Independence Day parade in Illinois, Chicago, and the North Shore University Health Center received 26 patients after the incident.
All but one were shot, medical director for emergency preparedness, Dr. Brigham Temple, said.
Their ages ranged from 8 to 85, and Dr. Temple estimated that four or five patients were children.
About 19 of the victims were treated and released from hospital, the doctor said.
Others were transferred to other hospitals, while two patients, in stable condition, remained at Highland Park Hospital.

Biden says there is “a lot of work to do” on gun reform
President Joe Biden said he and First Lady Jill Biden were “shocked” by the mass shooting that tore through the Independence Day parade in Highland Park on Monday, calling it yet another example of “irrational violence with the use of a weapon that has once again brought grief to American society.”
In a statement, Mr. Biden said he and Mrs. Biden are “grateful” for the efforts of law enforcement officials who responded to the bloody spectacle.
He said he has offered Illinois Governor JB Priesker and Highland Park Mayor Nancy Rottering “the full support of the federal government,” including an increase in law enforcement officers to assist in the ongoing search for the suspected shooter.

The mass shooting comes just weeks after massacres in Ovaldi and Buffalo
Monday’s massacre is the latest in a growing number of mass shootings to tear apart a community in the United States as pressure continues on lawmakers to introduce important gun reform laws.
Less than two months ago, 10 black people were killed in a mass shooting in Buffalo, New York, on May 14.
The attack was carried out by a self-proclaimed white supremacist 18-year-old with a legally purchased AR-15.
Ten days later, 19 students and two teachers were killed in a mass shooting in Ovaldi, Texas, when another 18-year-old entered Robb Elementary School with an AR-15 and opened fire.
The identity of the July 4 mass shooting in Illinois is currently unknown, but it has been described as a white male between the ages of 18 and 20.
The police found a gun from the scene.

Investigators are asking for the public’s help
Investigators have requested public assistance in identifying the perpetrator and bringing him to justice.
Sgt. Chris Covelly, the Lake County District’s chief crime sergeant, urged witnesses to submit mobile phone footage or photos from the show and urged business owners to verify their surveillance footage.
“We are asking anyone with any video surveillance they have to please check your cell phones,” he said.
“If you’re taking pictures in Second and Central today, that might help the investigators. They might see something that might be useful and allow them to move forward with the investigation.”
“Any business owners in this area we would ask them to, please, review video surveillance. If you have any video surveillance of that area at the time, even if you don’t see anything there, we would love to be able to take a look at that so we can continue our investigation.”
Anyone who notices anything suspicious should call 911, the Highland Park Police Department at 847-432-7730, or the FBI Information Line at 800-CALL-FBI.

Why can't you tap into the line above the concrete and use a Back-outlet toilet? There shouldn't be any problem with "gravity" if the sewer is already run below basement level, right? American Standard makes a couple of models that attach to the floor as compared to a "wall-mount" toilet.

Isaiah Woods-Renfro, a promising wide receiver at the University of Washington, realized he was battling something more severe than a case of the freshman jitters and decided to do something about it.
Woods-Renfro announced on his Instagram account Sunday he was leaving school as he battles clinical depression and anxiety.
Rather than leave without a word, Woods-Renfro opened up about his issues and his decision to leave school.
Woods-Renfro said he missed spring practice and checked himself into a hospital for treatment.
“Waking up in the morning got harder and harder, till it got to the point where I didn’t want to wake up at all,” Woods-Renfro wrote. “I was in a special program for people like me, that taught me how to cope with my problems and what to do when I hit my lowest of lows.”
Woods-Renfro said he now has a better outlook on life and “for me to continue my process of being healthy again, I need to step away from the game of football.”
A small school Los Angeles area star at Sierra Canyon High School, Woods-Renfro caught 59 passes for 1,322 yards as a senior and as a true freshman at Washington had 13 receptions for 178 yards and a touchdown.

The root surface in human teeth: a microradiographic study. (1/1113)In an attempt to clarify the nature of the human cemento-dentinal junction, ground sections of incompletely formed and fully formed extracted teeth were prepared and their histology compared with their microradiographic appearances. The results showed that incompletely formed teeth possess distinctive surface layers outside the granular layer of Tomes. The evidence indicates that these layers are of dentinal origin; their presence during development supports previous explanations by the author of the hyaline layer of Hopewell-Smith and of so-called intermediate cementum. The results also indicate that the granular layer of Tomes does not represent the outer limit of root dentine. The relationship of these surface layers to the definitive cementum which is present in fully formed teeth was studied in both young and older patients. From the results it was concluded that cementum formation begins in the more apical region of the teeth at a time when root formation is well advanced, and that it spreads towards the crown rather than in the generally accepted reverse direction.

Predicting protein decomposition: the case of aspartic-acid racemization kinetics. (2/1113)The increase in proportion of the non-biological (D-) isomer of aspartic acid (Asp) relative to the L-isomer has been widely used in archaeology and geochemistry as a tool for dating. the method has proved controversial, particularly when used for bones. The non-linear kinetics of Asp racemization have prompted a number of suggestions as to the underlying mechanism(s) and have led to the use of mathematical transformations which linearize the increase in D-Asp with respect to time. Using one example, a suggestion that the initial rapid phase of Asp racemization is due to a contribution from asparagine (Asn), we demonstrate how a simple model of the degradation and racemization of Asn can be used to predict the observed kinetics. A more complex model of peptide bound Asx (Asn + Asp) racemization, which occurs via the formation of a cyclic succinimide (Asu), can be used to correctly predict Asx racemization kinetics in proteins at high temperatures (95-140 degrees C). The model fails to predict racemization kinetics in dentine collagen at 37 degrees C. The reason for this is that Asu formation is highly conformation dependent and is predicted to occur extremely slowly in triple helical collagen. As conformation strongly influences the rate of Asu formation and hence Asx racemization, the use of extrapolation from high temperatures to estimate racemization kinetics of Asx in proteins below their denaturation temperature is called into question. In the case of archaeological bone, we argue that the D:L ratio of Asx reflects the proportion of non-helical to helical collagen, overlain by the effects of leaching of more soluble (and conformationally unconstrained) peptides. Thus, racemization kinetics in bone are potentially unpredictable, and the proposed use of Asx racemization to estimate the extent of DNA depurination in archaeological bones is challenged. (+info)
Steric effects of N-acyl group in O-methacryloyl-N-acyl tyrosines on the adhesiveness of unetched human dentin. (3/1113)We have prepared various O-methacryloyl-N-acyl tyrosines (MAATY) to reveal the relationship between molecular structure near carboxylic acid and adhesive strength of MAATY-HEMA type adhesive resin to unetched dentin. In this study, we attempted to change the steric hindrance effect without changing the HLB value, i.e., introducing an iso-acyl group instead of n-acyl group into MAATY. O-methacryloyl-N-ethylbutyryl tyrosine (MIHTY) showed significantly lower adhesive strength when compared with O-methacryloyl-N-hexanoyl tyrosine even though both MAATY have the same HLB value. The possible explanation of the significantly different adhesive strength was that the 2-ethylbutyryl group in MIHTY was bulky, resulting in inhibition of the hydrogen bonding of the carboxylic group. The HLB value is independent of the steric effect of molecular structure, and thus the steric factor should be taken into consideration for the explanation of different adhesive strengths within the adhesive monomers having the same HLB value but different molecular structures.

Dentinal tubule occlusion with lanthanum fluoride and powdered apatite glass ceramics in vitro. (4/1113)To simulate hypersensitive dentin, the smear layer and dentinal plugs of bovine root dentin specimens were removed by immersion in 10% phosphoric acid, polishing with hydroxyapatite particles, and ultrasonic cleansing. The fluoride-tannic acid-lanthanum-apatite (FTLA) group was treated with acidulated phosphate fluoride (APF) containing tannic acid followed by rubbing with a paste of lanthanum chloride (LaCl3) and powdered apatite glass ceramics. The treated specimens were immersed in a remineralizing solution that mimics saliva for 6 weeks. The SEM observations revealed that the treated surfaces of the FTLA group were completely covered with fine spherical compounds and the dentinal tubules were occluded with plugs to a depth of about 3 microns. Fluoride and lanthanum were detected to a depth of over 20 microns by EPMA observation. After the remineralization, the surface of FTLA-treated specimen did not have any opened tubules and showed a remarkable increase in the number of fine spherical deposits in the dentinal tubules. These results suggest that the reaction products produced by sequential treatment with acidic fluoride and LaCl3 and powdered apatite glass ceramics are able to effectively occlude dentinal tubules.

Osteoclast differentiation factor acts as a multifunctional regulator in murine osteoclast differentiation and function. (5/1113)Osteoclast differentiation factor (ODF), a novel member of the TNF ligand family, is expressed as a membrane-associated protein by osteoblasts/stromal cells. The soluble form of ODF (sODF) induces the differentiation of osteoclast precursors into osteoclasts in the presence of M-CSF. Here, the effects of sODF on the survival, multinucleation, and pit-forming activity of murine osteoclasts were examined in comparison with those of M-CSF and IL-1. Osteoclast-like cells (OCLs) formed in cocultures of murine osteoblasts and bone marrow cells expressed mRNA of RANK (receptor activator of NF-kappaB), a receptor of ODF. The survival of OCLs was enhanced by the addition of each of sODF, M-CSF, and IL-1. sODF, as well as IL-1, activated NF-kappaB and c-Jun N-terminal protein kinase (JNK) in OCLs. Like M-CSF and IL-1, sODF stimulated the survival and multinucleation of prefusion osteoclasts (pOCs) isolated from the coculture. When pOCs were cultured on dentine slices, resorption pits were formed on the slices in the presence of either sODF or IL-1 but not in that of M-CSF. A soluble form of RANK as well as osteoprotegerin/osteoclastogenesis inhibitory factor, a decoy receptor of ODF, blocked OCL formation and prevented the survival, multinucleation, and pit-forming activity of pOCs induced by sODF. These results suggest that ODF regulates not only osteoclast differentiation but also osteoclast function in mice through the receptor RANK. (+info)
Deficiency of SHP-1 protein-tyrosine phosphatase activity results in heightened osteoclast function and decreased bone density. (6/1113)Mice homozygous for the motheaten (Hcphme) or viable motheaten (Hcphme-v) mutations are deficient in functional SHP-1 protein-tyrosine phosphatase and show severe defects in hematopoiesis. Comparison of femurs from mev/mev mice revealed significant decreases in bone mineral density (0.33 +/- 0.03 mg/mm3 for mev/mevversus 0.41 +/- 0.01 mg/mm3 for controls) and mineral content (1.97 +/- 0.36 mg for mev/mevversus 10.64 +/- 0.67 for controls) compared with littermate controls. Viable motheaten mice also showed reduced amounts of trabecular bone and decreased cortical thickness. These bone abnormalities were associated with a 14% increase in numbers of multinucleated osteoclasts and an increase in osteoclast resorption activity. In co-cultures of normal osteoblasts with mutant or control bone marrow cells, numbers of osteoclasts developing from mutant mice were increased compared with littermate control mice. Although mev/mev osteoclasts develop in the absence of colony-stimulating factor (CSF)-1, nevertheless cultured osteoclasts show increased size in the presence of CSF-1. CSF-1-deficient osteopetrosis (op/op) mutant mice develop severe osteosclerosis. However, doubly homozygous mev/mevop/op mice show an expansion of bone marrow cavities and reduced trabecular bone mass compared with op/op mice. Western blot analysis showed that several proteins that were markedly hyperphosphorylated on tyrosine residues were detected in the motheaten osteoclasts, including a novel 126-kd phosphotyrosine protein. The marked hyperphosphorylation of a 126-kd protein in motheaten osteoclasts suggests that this protein depends on SHP-1 for dephosphorylation. These findings demonstrate that the decreased SHP-1 catalytic activity in me/me and mev/mev mice results in an increased population of activated osteoclasts and consequent reduction in bone density.

Intermittent inhibition of dentin mineralization of rat incisors under continual infusion of 1-hydroxyethylidene-1, 1-bisphosphonate (HEBP) using a subcutaneous mini osmotic pump. (7/1113)The inhibitory effect of the continual administration of 1-hydroxyethylidene-1, 1-bisphosphonate (HEBP) (8 mgP/kg/day) through a mini osmotic pump on dentin mineralization was examined in relation to the diurnal rhythm of the rat and compared with that of daily injections of same amounts of HEBP known to inhibit dentin mineralization. After daily injections of HEBP, a series of alternating rows of mineralized and non-mineralized dentin islands appeared in the newly formed portion of the crown-analogue of rat incisors. A similar phenomenon occurred under the continual administration of HEBP in rats raised either under regular environmental photofraction or constant lighting conditions. The average distance between the adjacent mineralized dentin islands was 521.0 +/- 51.3 microns in the injected rats. After continual HEBP administration, this was 426.0 +/- 13.2 microns and 416.5 +/- 19.4 microns under ordinary photofraction and constant light, respectively. Although the pattern of individual mineralized dentin islands tended to become irregular in nocturnal rats, no statistical difference was noted between the two values. Rows of mineralized and non-mineralized dentin islands also appeared in the root analogue dentin. No sign of the intermittent inhibition of mineralization was recognized in mesodermal hard tissues other than dentin in the HEBP-affected animals. These data implicate the presence of intrinsic cycles in dentin mineralization at the growing end of rat incisors independent of environmental photofraction as well as the ameloblast function.

Interaction between vacuolar H(+)-ATPase and microfilaments during osteoclast activation. (8/1113)Vacuolar H(+)-ATPases (V-ATPases) are multisubunit enzymes that acidify compartments of the vacuolar system of all eukaryotic cells. In osteoclasts, the cells that degrade bone, V-ATPases, are recruited from intracellular membrane compartments to the ruffled membrane, a specialized domain of the plasma membrane, where they are maintained at high densities, serving to acidify the resorption bay at the osteoclast attachment site on bone (Blair, H. C., Teitelbaum, S. L., Ghiselli, R., and Gluck, S. L. (1989) Science 249, 855-857). Here, we describe a new mechanism involved in controlling the activity of the bone-resorptive cell. V-ATPase in osteoclasts cultured in vitro was found to form a detergent-insoluble complex with actin and myosin II through direct binding of V-ATPase to actin filaments. Plating bone marrow cells onto dentine slices, a physiologic stimulus that activates osteoclast resorption, produced a profound change in the association of the V-ATPase with actin, assayed by coimmunoprecipitation and immunocytochemical colocalization of actin filaments and V-ATPase in osteoclasts. Mouse marrow and bovine kidney V-ATPase bound rabbit muscle F-actin directly with a maximum stoichiometry of 1 mol of V-ATPase per 8 mol of F-actin and an apparent affinity of 0.05 microM. Electron microscopy of negatively stained samples confirmed the binding interaction. These findings link transport of V-ATPase to reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton during osteoclast activation. (+info)
Dentin sensitivity is a common dental condition characterized by pain or discomfort in response to stimuli that would not normally cause pain in healthy teeth. The pain is usually felt in the dentin, the layer of the tooth beneath the enamel, and is often described as a sharp, shooting, or burning sensation. Dentin sensitivity can be caused by a variety of factors, including tooth decay, gum recession, tooth grinding or clenching, and exposure of the dentin due to tooth erosion or wear. It can also be triggered by hot or cold beverages, acidic foods and drinks, sweet foods, and brushing too hard or with a harsh toothpaste. Treatment for dentin sensitivity typically involves addressing the underlying cause, such as treating tooth decay or gum disease, and using desensitizing toothpaste or mouth rinses. In some cases, a dentist may recommend a more invasive treatment, such as a dental filling or root canal therapy.
Dentin, secondary, also known as secondary dentin, is a type of dentin that is formed after the primary dentin in the tooth. It is produced by odontoblasts, which are specialized cells that are responsible for forming dentin. Secondary dentin is typically darker in color than primary dentin and has a different microstructure. It is formed in response to injury or inflammation to the tooth and helps to strengthen the tooth and protect it from further damage.
Dentin dysplasia is a rare genetic disorder that affects the development of dentin, the hard, protective layer of the teeth. It is characterized by the abnormal formation of dentin, which can result in teeth that are abnormally thin, weak, and prone to decay. There are two main types of dentin dysplasia: type I and type II. Type I dentin dysplasia is the more common form and is usually inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern, meaning that only one copy of the abnormal gene is needed to develop the condition. Type II dentin dysplasia is less common and is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern, meaning that both copies of the gene must be abnormal for the condition to develop. Symptoms of dentin dysplasia can vary depending on the severity of the condition. In some cases, affected individuals may have no symptoms at all. However, in more severe cases, symptoms may include sensitivity to hot and cold temperatures, difficulty chewing, and an increased risk of tooth decay and gum disease. In some cases, the condition may also affect the development of other teeth-related structures, such as the jawbone and the roots of the teeth. Treatment for dentin dysplasia typically involves regular dental check-ups and the use of special dental materials to strengthen and protect the teeth. In some cases, more extensive treatment may be necessary, such as the use of dental implants or the extraction of affected teeth.
Methacrylates are a group of organic compounds that contain the -COOR functional group, where R is an alkyl or aryl group. They are commonly used in the medical field as monomers for the synthesis of polymers, such as polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), which is used in the production of acrylic lenses for glasses and contact lenses. Methacrylates are also used as adhesives, coatings, and sealants in medical devices, such as catheters, implants, and surgical instruments. They have excellent bonding properties and are resistant to water, chemicals, and heat, making them ideal for medical applications. In addition, some methacrylates, such as 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA), are used as solvents for drugs and other medical compounds. HEMA is also used as a monomer in the production of hydrogels, which are used in contact lenses and drug delivery systems. However, some methacrylates, such as bisphenol A dimethacrylate (Bis-GMA), have been associated with potential health risks, including allergic reactions and genotoxicity. Therefore, the use of methacrylates in medical devices and applications must be carefully evaluated to ensure their safety and efficacy.
Resin cements are dental materials that are used to bond dental restorations, such as fillings, crowns, and bridges, to the tooth structure. They are made from a combination of resin monomers, polymers, and other ingredients that are cured with light or heat to form a strong, durable bond. Resin cements are preferred over traditional dental cements because they have a number of advantages, including: 1. Improved adhesion: Resin cements bond to both tooth structure and dental restorations, providing a stronger and more durable bond than traditional cements. 2. Better esthetics: Resin cements can be matched to the color of the tooth, providing a more natural-looking restoration. 3. Increased strength: Resin cements are stronger than traditional cements, which can reduce the risk of fractures and other types of damage to the tooth. 4. Faster curing: Resin cements can be cured in just a few seconds, which can reduce the time required for dental procedures. Overall, resin cements are a popular choice for dental restorations because of their improved adhesion, esthetics, strength, and curing time.
In the medical field, a smear layer is a thin layer of debris and bacteria that forms on the surface of dental tissues, such as teeth and gums, after a cleaning or scaling procedure. This layer can interfere with the bonding of dental materials, such as fillings or crowns, to the underlying tooth structure, and can also contribute to the development of dental plaque and gum disease. To remove the smear layer, dentists may use a variety of techniques, such as polishing or etching, to roughen the surface of the tooth and improve the adhesion of dental materials.
In the medical field, composite resins are a type of dental filling material that is used to restore teeth that have been damaged by decay or trauma. They are made up of a mixture of glass particles and a resin binder, and are often used to fill small to medium-sized cavities. Composite resins are popular among dentists because they are tooth-colored, which means they can be matched to the natural color of the patient's teeth. This makes them an attractive option for patients who want to restore their teeth without the use of metal fillings. In addition, composite resins are relatively easy to use and can be shaped and polished to blend in with the surrounding teeth. While composite resins are generally considered safe and effective, they may not be suitable for all patients. For example, they may not be a good choice for patients who grind their teeth or who have a high risk of developing cavities. In these cases, other types of dental fillings, such as amalgam or gold, may be a better option.
Phosphoric acids are a group of acids that contain the -PO4 group in their molecular structure. They are commonly used in the medical field as a component of various medications and medical treatments. One of the most common uses of phosphoric acids in medicine is as an ingredient in certain types of antacids. Phosphoric acid can help to neutralize stomach acid and reduce symptoms of heartburn and indigestion. Phosphoric acids are also used in some medications to treat kidney stones. They work by increasing the amount of urine produced, which can help to flush out small kidney stones. In addition, phosphoric acids are used in some wound care products to help prevent infection and promote healing. They can also be used as a preservative in some medications to help extend their shelf life. Overall, phosphoric acids play an important role in the medical field as a component of various medications and treatments. However, it is important to note that they can also have side effects and may not be suitable for everyone. It is always best to consult with a healthcare professional before using any medical product containing phosphoric acid.
Tooth demineralization is a process in which minerals in tooth enamel are gradually lost due to exposure to acidic substances, such as sugary drinks, fruit juices, and certain foods. This loss of minerals weakens the tooth structure and can lead to the development of cavities, also known as dental caries. Tooth demineralization can occur at any age, but it is most common in children and adolescents who are still developing their permanent teeth. It can also occur in adults who have poor oral hygiene or who consume a diet high in sugar and acidic foods and beverages. Treatment for tooth demineralization typically involves the use of fluoride toothpaste, mouth rinses, and professional dental cleanings to remineralize the tooth and prevent further decay. In more severe cases, dental fillings or other restorative procedures may be necessary.
Bisphenol A-Glycidyl Methacrylate (Bis-GMA) is a chemical compound that is commonly used as a monomer in the production of dental composite resins, which are used to fill cavities in teeth. Bis-GMA is a type of bisphenol, which is a group of industrial chemicals that are used to make a variety of products, including plastics, resins, and coatings. Bis-GMA is a colorless, odorless liquid that is used in the production of dental composite resins because it can be easily polymerized (combined with other molecules) to form a hard, durable material that can be shaped to fit the contours of a tooth. However, some studies have suggested that Bis-GMA may have potential health effects, including the ability to mimic the effects of estrogen in the body and to cause allergic reactions in some people. As a result, the use of Bis-GMA in dental composite resins has been the subject of some debate and controversy in the medical field.
Dental leakage refers to the passage of bacteria or other microorganisms from the oral cavity into the surrounding tissues or the bloodstream through gaps or spaces in dental restorations, such as fillings, crowns, or bridges. This can lead to the development of dental caries (cavities) or other infections, and can also increase the risk of systemic infections, such as endocarditis or meningitis. Dental leakage can occur due to a variety of factors, including poor fit of the restoration, inadequate cleaning and maintenance, or the presence of cracks or defects in the restoration material. It is important to detect and treat dental leakage promptly to prevent further complications.
Dental caries, also known as tooth decay, is a common dental disease that affects the hard tissues of the teeth, including the enamel, dentin, and pulp. It is caused by the demineralization of tooth enamel due to the production of acid by bacteria in the mouth. The bacteria in the mouth feed on sugars and starches in the food we eat, producing acid as a byproduct. This acid can erode the enamel on the teeth, leading to the formation of cavities. If left untreated, dental caries can progress and cause damage to the underlying dentin and pulp, leading to pain, infection, and tooth loss. Dental caries is a preventable disease through good oral hygiene practices, such as brushing and flossing regularly, using fluoride toothpaste and mouthwash, and limiting sugary and acidic foods and drinks. Early detection and treatment of dental caries can help prevent more serious complications and maintain good oral health.
Sialoglycoproteins are a type of glycoprotein that are found in the saliva of humans and other animals. They are composed of a protein core and one or more carbohydrate chains attached to the protein. Sialoglycoproteins play important roles in a variety of biological processes, including the lubrication and protection of the oral mucosa, the breakdown of food in the mouth, and the immune response. They are also involved in the development and progression of certain diseases, such as cancer and autoimmune disorders. In the medical field, sialoglycoproteins are often studied as potential biomarkers for these and other conditions.
Tooth attrition is the gradual wearing down of the tooth enamel and dentin caused by normal tooth-to-tooth contact during chewing, grinding, or clenching. It is a natural process that occurs throughout a person's life, and it can be accelerated by factors such as bruxism (teeth grinding), acid erosion, and aging. Tooth attrition can lead to a variety of dental problems, including sensitivity, cracking, and even tooth loss. It can also affect the shape and size of the teeth, which can impact the way they fit together and affect the function of the jaw. In some cases, tooth attrition may require dental treatment, such as tooth crowns, fillings, or root canal therapy. Preventive measures, such as wearing a mouthguard during sports or sleep, can also help to reduce the risk of tooth attrition.
Polymethacrylic acids are a type of polymer that are commonly used in the medical field for a variety of applications. They are typically synthesized from methacrylic acid, which is a monomer that can be polymerized to form a long chain of repeating units. Polymethacrylic acids are known for their ability to form gels and hydrogels, which are materials that can absorb and retain large amounts of water. In the medical field, polymethacrylic acids are often used as drug delivery systems. They can be used to encapsulate drugs and release them slowly over time, which can help to improve the effectiveness and duration of treatment. They can also be used as wound dressings, as they can absorb and retain fluids and help to protect the wound from infection. Additionally, polymethacrylic acids have been used in tissue engineering applications, as they can be used to create scaffolds that can support the growth and development of new tissue.
Extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins are a diverse group of proteins that are secreted by cells and form a complex network within the extracellular space. These proteins provide structural support to cells and tissues, regulate cell behavior, and play a crucial role in tissue development, homeostasis, and repair. ECM proteins are found in all tissues and organs of the body and include collagens, elastin, fibronectin, laminins, proteoglycans, and many others. These proteins interact with each other and with cell surface receptors to form a dynamic and highly regulated ECM that provides a physical and chemical environment for cells to thrive. In the medical field, ECM proteins are important for understanding the development and progression of diseases such as cancer, fibrosis, and cardiovascular disease. They are also used in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine to create artificial ECMs that can support the growth and function of cells and tissues. Additionally, ECM proteins are used as diagnostic and prognostic markers in various diseases, and as targets for drug development.
Dental pulp exposure is a condition in which the innermost layer of the tooth, called the dental pulp, becomes exposed or damaged. The dental pulp contains nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue that nourish and support the tooth. When the pulp is exposed, it can become infected, inflamed, or painful, and may require treatment to prevent further damage or infection. Causes of dental pulp exposure can include tooth decay, trauma, or dental procedures such as root canal therapy or tooth extraction. Treatment options for dental pulp exposure may include pain management, antibiotics, or a procedure called pulpotomy or pulpectomy, in which the damaged pulp is removed and the tooth is filled and sealed to prevent further infection.
Dentinogenesis Imperfecta (DI) is a group of inherited disorders that affect the development and structure of tooth enamel and dentin, the two main components of teeth. DI is characterized by abnormal tooth formation, which can result in teeth that are weak, brittle, and prone to fracture. The severity of DI can vary widely, ranging from mild to severe, and can affect both primary (baby) teeth and permanent teeth. In some cases, DI can also affect the development of bones in the jaw and face. There are several different types of DI, which are classified based on the specific genetic mutations that cause them. Treatment for DI typically involves managing the symptoms and complications of the condition, such as tooth decay and fractures, and may also include dental procedures to improve the appearance and function of affected teeth.

Sodium hypochlorite is available in various concentrations and is typically mixed with water to form a solution for use. It is important to handle sodium hypochlorite with care, as it can be harmful if ingested or inhaled in large quantities.
Tooth erosion is a dental condition that occurs when the hard outer layer of the tooth, called the enamel, is worn away by acids. This can happen due to various factors, including exposure to acidic foods and drinks, frequent vomiting or regurgitation, certain medical conditions, and certain habits such as teeth grinding or clenching. Tooth erosion can cause a number of problems, including sensitivity to hot and cold, difficulty chewing, and an unattractive appearance of the teeth. In severe cases, it can lead to tooth decay and even tooth loss. Treatment for tooth erosion depends on the severity of the condition. In mild cases, simply changing one's diet and avoiding acidic foods and drinks may be enough to slow or stop the erosion. In more severe cases, a dentist may recommend fluoride treatments, dental bonding, or other restorative procedures to repair the damaged teeth.
In the medical field, water is a vital substance that is essential for the proper functioning of the human body. It is a clear, odorless, tasteless liquid that makes up the majority of the body's fluids, including blood, lymph, and interstitial fluid.

It also helps to regulate blood pressure and prevent dehydration, which can lead to a range of health problems. In medical settings, water is often used as a means of hydration therapy for patients who are dehydrated or have fluid imbalances. It may also be used as a diluent for medications or as a component of intravenous fluids. Overall, water is an essential component of human health and plays a critical role in maintaining the body's normal functions.
Tooth abrasion is a dental condition that occurs when the outer layer of the tooth, called the enamel, is worn down or abraded. This can happen due to various factors, including brushing too hard, using a toothbrush with hard bristles, grinding or clenching teeth, consuming acidic foods and drinks, and chewing on hard objects such as ice or pencils. Tooth abrasion can cause a number of symptoms, including tooth sensitivity, pain when chewing, and a rough or uneven tooth surface. In severe cases, it can lead to tooth decay, gum recession, and even tooth loss. Treatment for tooth abrasion typically involves addressing the underlying cause, such as changing brushing habits or using a softer toothbrush. In some cases, a dentist may also use a fluoride treatment or a dental filling to help protect the tooth and prevent further damage.

Tooth fractures refer to the partial or complete breakage of the hard outer layer of a tooth, known as the enamel. Tooth fractures can occur as a result of trauma, such as a blow to the face, or from excessive force applied to the tooth during biting or chewing. There are several types of tooth fractures, including: 1. Fractures of the enamel: These occur when the outer layer of the tooth is broken, but the underlying dentin and pulp are not affected. 2. Fractures of the dentin: These occur when the dentin, the layer of tooth beneath the enamel, is broken. 3. Fractures of the pulp: These occur when the innermost layer of the tooth, the pulp, is damaged. 4. Complete tooth fractures: These occur when the entire tooth is broken into two or more pieces. Tooth fractures can cause pain, sensitivity, and difficulty chewing or speaking. Treatment options depend on the severity of the fracture and may include filling the tooth, root canal therapy, or extraction and replacement with a dental implant or bridge.
Pulpitis is a medical term used to describe inflammation of the pulp, which is the soft tissue inside the tooth that contains nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue. Pulpitis can be acute or chronic, and it can be caused by a variety of factors, including tooth decay, injury, or infection. Acute pulpitis is a sudden and severe form of pulpitis that is often accompanied by sharp, shooting pain that can be triggered by hot or cold temperatures, pressure, or sweet or sour foods. Chronic pulpitis is a less severe form of pulpitis that may cause dull, aching pain that is relieved by over-the-counter pain medication. If pulpitis is left untreated, it can lead to the formation of an abscess, which is a pocket of pus that can cause further pain and infection. Treatment for pulpitis typically involves root canal therapy, which involves removing the inflamed pulp and cleaning and sealing the inside of the tooth. In some cases, a tooth may need to be extracted if it is too damaged to save.

Phosphoproteins can be detected and studied using a variety of techniques, including mass spectrometry, Western blotting, and immunoprecipitation. These techniques allow researchers to identify and quantify the phosphorylation status of specific proteins in cells and tissues, and to study the effects of changes in phosphorylation on protein function and cellular processes.
Root caries, also known as root decay or tooth decay on the root surface, is a type of dental caries (cavities) that occurs on the root surfaces of teeth. Unlike the more common type of dental caries that occurs on the chewing surfaces of teeth, root caries typically affects older adults and is more common in people with certain medical conditions, such as diabetes or osteoporosis. Root caries can cause pain, sensitivity, and difficulty chewing or speaking. It can also lead to tooth loss if left untreated. Treatment for root caries typically involves removing the decayed tissue and filling the cavity with a dental filling material. In some cases, root canal therapy may be necessary to save the tooth. Good oral hygiene, including regular brushing and flossing, can help prevent root caries.
Tooth wear is a common dental condition that refers to the gradual loss of tooth structure due to various factors. It can occur on the surface of the tooth or extend deeper into the tooth structure, affecting the shape, size, and function of the tooth. There are several types of tooth wear, including: 1. Attrition: This is the most common type of tooth wear, which occurs when the tooth surfaces rub against each other, causing the enamel and dentin to wear down. 2. Abrasion: This type of tooth wear occurs when the tooth surface is worn down by external factors such as brushing too hard, grinding teeth, or consuming acidic foods and drinks. 3. Erosion: This type of tooth wear occurs when the tooth surface is worn down by chemical factors such as acid reflux, stomach acid, or frequent exposure to acidic foods and drinks. Tooth wear can cause a variety of dental problems, including sensitivity, pain, difficulty chewing, and even tooth loss. Treatment options for tooth wear depend on the severity of the condition and may include dental bonding, dental crowns, or dental veneers. It is important to maintain good oral hygiene and visit a dentist regularly to prevent and manage tooth wear.

Integrin-Binding Sialoprotein (IBSP) is a protein that plays a role in bone formation and remodeling. It is also known as osteoblast-specific factor 2 (OSF-2) or bone sialoprotein (BSP). IBSP is synthesized by osteoblasts, which are cells responsible for forming new bone tissue, and is secreted into the extracellular matrix where it binds to integrins, which are cell surface receptors that mediate cell adhesion and migration. IBSP has been shown to regulate bone mineralization, cell proliferation, and differentiation, and is involved in the formation of the dentin matrix in teeth. It is also expressed in other tissues, including the placenta, lung, and kidney, where it may play a role in tissue development and repair.
Fluorides are compounds that contain the fluoride ion (F-). In the medical field, fluorides are commonly used to prevent tooth decay and improve oral health. They can be found in a variety of products, including toothpaste, mouthwashes, and fluoride supplements. Fluoride works by strengthening tooth enamel, making it more resistant to acid attacks from bacteria in the mouth. It can also help to remineralize tooth enamel that has already been damaged by acid. Fluoride is also used in water treatment to reduce the risk of tooth decay in communities. In addition, fluoride is sometimes used in dental procedures, such as fluoride varnishes and fluoride gels, to further strengthen teeth and prevent decay. While fluoride is generally considered safe and effective, excessive exposure to fluoride can lead to dental fluorosis, a condition that causes white or brown stains on the teeth. It is important to use fluoride products in moderation and to follow the instructions on the label.
In the medical field, "Carbon Compounds, Inorganic" refers to compounds that contain carbon but do not contain hydrogen. These compounds are typically formed by the reaction of carbon with other elements, such as oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, or halogens. Examples of inorganic carbon compounds include carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO), and calcium carbonate (CaCO3). These compounds can play important roles in various physiological processes, such as respiration, metabolism, and bone formation. In some cases, inorganic carbon compounds can also be toxic or harmful to the body if they are present in high concentrations or if they are not properly metabolized.

Cracked Tooth Syndrome (CTS) is a dental condition characterized by a crack or split in one or more of the teeth. The crack may extend from the outer surface of the tooth to the inner pulp chamber, causing pain, sensitivity, and difficulty chewing. CTS can occur in any tooth, but it is most common in the molars and premolars. The exact cause of CTS is not fully understood, but it is believed to be the result of repetitive stress on the tooth, such as grinding or clenching the teeth, or biting down on hard objects. Other factors that may contribute to CTS include tooth decay, gum disease, and tooth wear. Diagnosis of CTS typically involves a thorough examination of the teeth and gums, as well as x-rays to visualize the extent of the crack. Treatment options for CTS depend on the severity of the crack and the location of the tooth. In some cases, the tooth may be restored with a filling or a crown. In more severe cases, the tooth may need to be extracted. Pain management and relaxation techniques may also be recommended to help alleviate symptoms.
Edetic acid, also known as ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), is a synthetic organic acid that is commonly used in the medical field as a chelating agent. It is a colorless, water-soluble solid that is used to dissolve minerals and other metal ions in solution.
