A Perspective Around Cephalopods and Their Parasites, and Suggestions on How to Increase Knowledge in the Field.

abstract：UNLABELLED:Since Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) have been suggested to contribute to dentin caries progression, the hypothesis that MMP inhibition would affect the progression of dentin caries is clinically relevant. Grape seed extracts (GSE) have been previously reported to be natural inhibitors of MMPs. OBJECTIVE:...
