Seong KJ, Kim HJ, Cai B, Kook MS, Jung JY, Kim WJ. Toll-like receptor 2 promotes neurogenesis from the dentate gyrus after photothrombotic cerebral ischemia in mice. THE KOREAN JOURNAL OF PHYSIOLOGY & PHARMACOLOGY : OFFICIAL JOURNAL OF THE KOREAN PHYSIOLOGICAL SOCIETY AND THE KOREAN SOCIETY OF PHARMACOLOGY 2018; 22:145-153. [PMID: 29520167 PMCID: PMC5840073 DOI: 10.4196/kjpp.2018.22.2.145] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2017] [Revised: 11/03/2017] [Accepted: 12/07/2017] [Indexed: 01/27/2023]
Abstract
The subgranular zone (SGZ) of hippocampal dentate gyrus (HDG) is a primary site of adult neurogenesis. Toll-like receptors (TLRs), are involved in neural system development of Drosophila and innate immune response of mammals. TLR2 is expressed abundantly in neurogenic niches such as adult mammalian hippocampus. It regulates adult hippocampal neurogenesis. However, the role of TLR2 in adult neurogenesis is not well studied in global or focal cerebral ischemia. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the role of TLR2 in adult neurogenesis after photochemically induced cerebral ischemia. At 7 days after photothrombotic ischemic injury, the number of bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU)-positive cells was increased in both TLR2 knock-out (KO) mice and wild-type (WT) mice. However, the increment rate of BrdU-positive cells was lower in TLR2 KO mice compared to that in WT mice. The number of doublecortin (DCX) and neuronal nuclei (NeuN)-positive cells in HDG was decreased after photothrombotic ischemia in TLR2 KO mice compared to that in WT mice. The survival rate of cells in HDG was decreased in TLR2 KO mice compared to that in WT mice. In contrast, the number of cleaved-caspase 3 (apoptotic marker) and the number of GFAP (glia marker)/BrdU double-positive cells in TLR2 KO mice were higher than that in WT mice. These results suggest that TLR2 can promote adult neurogenesis from neural stem cell of hippocampal dentate gyrus through increasing proliferation, differentiation, and survival from neural stem cells after ischemic injury of the brain.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate corrective outcome and transverse stability after orthognathic surgery via a surgery-first approach (SFA) in mandibular prognathism with and without facial asymmetry using 3-dimensional analysis. STUDY DESIGN Twenty-nine patients who received mandibular setback surgery using SFA were divided into 2 groups according to the menton deviation (4 mm): symmetry group (n = 17) and asymmetry group (n = 12). Using computed tomography images obtained before (T0), immediately after (T1), and 6 months after (T2) surgery, time-dependent changes in variables related to facial asymmetry, including maxillary height, ramal length, frontal and lateral ramal inclination, mandibular body length, and mandibular body height, were evaluated. RESULTS Immediately after surgery, the asymmetry group showed significantly decreased discrepancies between the longer and non-longer sides for all variables (P < .05); there were no significant differences in discrepancies between the 2 groups. During the postoperative period, no significant changes in discrepancies were found in any variable in either group. Compared with T0, the asymmetry group showed significantly decreased discrepancies in ramal length, frontal and lateral ramal inclination, and mandibular body length at T2. CONCLUSIONS Variables related to facial asymmetry showed significant improvement after surgical-orthodontic treatment using SFA, and corrected outcomes showed good postoperative stability in both the symmetry and asymmetry groups.

Abstract
Customized titanium (Ti) meshes were treated with O2 plasma and acrylic acid plasmapolymerization (PPAAc). The optimum conditions for PPAAc were as follows: 20 W, 15 mTorr, and 5 min. Hydroxyapatite formation increased in Ti meshes treated with O2 and PPAAc compared with that in untreated Ti meshes. Moreover, MC3T3-E1 cells exhibited improved cell spreading, attachment, proliferation in PPAAc treated Ti mesh than in untreated Ti mesh. This result revealed that O2 and PPAAc surface treatment on Ti mesh was potential tool for improving the bone formation on the Ti mesh clinically application.

Abstract
Epidermal growth factor-like repeats and discoidin I-like domain 3 (Edil3) is an extracellular matrix protein containing an Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) motif that binds integrin. Recently, Edil3 has been implicated in various biological processes, including angiogenesis and cellular differentiation. It can inhibit inflammatory bone destruction. The objective of this study was to explore the role of Edil3 in osteoblast differentiation and its underlying molecular mechanisms. In wild-type mice, high expression levels of Edil3 mRNA were observed in isolated calvaria and tibia/femur bones. Immunohistochemical analysis showed that Edil3 protein was localized along periosteum and calcified regions surrounding bone tissues. When murine calvaria-derived MC3T3-E1 cells were cultured in osteogenic medium containing 50 μg/ml ascorbic acid and 5 mM β-glycerophosphate, Edil3 mRNA and protein expression levels were increased. Treatment with Edil3 protein in growth media increased expression levels of alkaline phosphatase and osteocalcin gene and phosphorylation level of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK). Edil3 treatment with osteogenic medium induced mineralization. Treatment with a neutralizing antibody against α5β1 and MEK inhibitor U0126 inhibited Edil3-enhanced osteogenic marker gene expression and mineral deposition. Edil3 increased protein expression levels of transcription factor runt-related transcription factor2 (Runx2). Edil3-induced Runx2 protein expression was suppressed by pretreatment with U0126. Taken together, these results suggest that Edil3 may stimulate osteoblast differentiation and matrix mineralization by increasing expression of Runx2 through α5β1 integrin /ERK pathway.

Abstract
Background Displacement of dental implants into the maxillary sinus is rare, but it primarily occurs in patients with severe pneumatization of the maxillary sinus and/or deficiency of the alveolar process. Some complications such as the infection of the paranasal sinuses and formation of the oroantral fistula can be followed by the displacement of a dental implant. Therefore, the displaced implant has to be removed immediately with surgical intervention show and another plan for rehabilitation should be considered. Main body The conventional procedure for the removal of a displaced implant from the maxillary sinus involves sinus bone grafting and new implant placement performed in two or more steps with a significant time gap in between. Simplification of these surgical procedures can decrease the treatment duration and patient discomfort. Conclusions In this review, we discuss the anatomical characteristics of the maxillary sinus and the complications associated with implant displacement into the sinus.

Abstract
Background Osteochondroma is a benign tumor that tends to develop in mandibular condyle and coronoid process in the craniofacial region. If tumor mass has grown from condyle into the infratemporal space with zygomatic arch obstructing the access, there are risks associated with surgical exposure and local resection of these masses. Case presentation This study reports on a case of osteochondroma on mandibular condylar head where we treated with surgical excision via preauricular approach with 3D analysis. After the local resection, there were no surgical and post-operative complications until 8-month follow-up period. Conclusions In local excision of osteochondroma, our method is a minimally invasive method. It is a good example of osteochondroma treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate horizontal changes of the proximal mandibular segment after mandibular setback surgery using 3-dimensional computed tomography (3-D CT). STUDY DESIGN This study included 66 patients who underwent bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy for correction of mandibular prognathism. With the use of 3-D CT data obtained preoperatively (T1), immediately postoperatively (T2), and 6 months postoperatively (T3), horizontal changes of the proximal mandibular segment, including the intercondylar width, the intergonial width, and the frontal-ramal inclination were evaluated. RESULTS The value of the right frontal-ramal inclination was 11.43 ± 1.36° at T1, 11.91 ± 1.96° at T2, and 10.7 ± 1.5° at T3. The values of the left frontal-ramal inclination were 6.10 ± 1.03° at T1, 8.17 ± 1.66° at T2, and 7.66 ± 1.65° at T3. The values of the intergonial width were 99.67 ± 1.67 mm at T1, 98.24 ± 1.72 mm at T2, and 97.08 ± 1.71 mm at T3. The intergonial width was significantly decreased at T3 compared with T1 (P < .001). The values of the intercondylar width were 123.51 ± 1.66 mm at T1, 123.9 ± 1.66 mm at T2, and 122.88 ± 1.58 mm at T3. CONCLUSIONS Lower facial width at mandibular angle region decreased immediately after mandibular setback surgery and showed further decreases during the postoperative period.

Abstract
In this study, recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) was directly immobilized on the plasma-polymerized propionaldehyde (PA) and allylglycidyl ether (AGE) surface through the imine bonding and epoxy-amine bonding, respectively. Aldehyde and epoxide plasma-polymerization were carried out at plasma power 60 W for 10 min and monomers were used to PA and AGE. After the plasma-polymerization and rhBMP-2 immobilization, substrate surfaces were characterized by contact angle, field emission scanning electron microscopy, and attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared. In addition, the biological activities of MC3T3-E1 cells were evaluated by initial adhesion and alkaline phosphate (ALP) activity. The rhBMP-2 immobilized PA and AGE surfaces promoted significantly higher ALP activity of MC3T3-E1 cells than pristine surface.

Abstract
The c-Met receptor tyrosine kinase and its ligand, hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), have been recently introduced to negatively regulate bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-induced osteogenesis. However, the effect of chemical inhibitors of c-Met receptor on osteoblast differentiation process has not been examined, especially the applicability of c-Met chemical inhibitors on in vivo bone regeneration. In this study, we demonstrated that chemical inhibitors of c-Met receptor tyrosine kinase, SYN1143 and SGX523, could potentiate the differentiation of precursor cells to osteoblasts and stimulate regeneration in calvarial bone defects of mice. Treatment with SYN1143 or SGX523 inhibited HGF-induced c-Met phosphorylation in MC3T3-E1 and C3H10T1/2 cells. Cell proliferation of MC3T3-E1 or C3H10T1/2 was not significantly affected by the concentrations of these inhibitors. Co-treatment with chemical inhibitor of c-Met and osteogenic inducing media enhanced osteoblast-specific genes expression and calcium nodule formation accompanied by increased Runx2 expression via c-Met receptor-dependent but Erk-Smad signaling independent pathway. Notably, the administration of these c-Met inhibitors significantly repaired critical-sized calvarial bone defects. Collectively, our results suggest that chemical inhibitors of c-Met receptor tyrosine kinase might be used as novel therapeutics to induce bone regeneration.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to evaluate changes in condylar position after bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (BSSRO) with and without Le Fort I osteotomy via the surgery-first approach (SFA) in patients with facial asymmetry. STUDY DESIGN Eighteen patients (36 condyles) who received surgical-orthodontic treatment using the SFA were included and divided into 2 groups depending on the extent of surgery: BSSRO-only group (n = 12) and BSSRO with Le Fort I osteotomy group (n = 6). Using computed tomography images taken preoperatively, immediately postoperatively, and 6 months postoperatively, surgical and postoperative changes of the condylar position were analyzed 3-dimensionally. RESULTS Both groups showed mainly inferolateral displacement with inward rotation immediately after surgery, and superomedial returning movement with outward rotation 6 months after surgery. There was no statistical difference in time-course changes of the condylar position between the 2 groups. In comparing the deviated and nondeviated sides, the deviated side showed significantly greater amount of bodily shift and rotational movement after surgery compared with the nondeviated side in both groups. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that BSSRO via the SFA, either with or without Le Fort I osteotomy, may cause condylar displacement after surgery and that the displaced condyles return to their original position on both the deviated and the nondeviated sides.

Abstract
Background The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical outcomes of implants that were placed within the maxillary sinus that has a perforated sinus membrane by the lateral window approach. Methods We examined the medical records of the patients who had implants placed within the maxillary sinus that has a perforated sinus membrane by the lateral approach at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery of Chonnam National University Dental Hospital from January 2009 to December 2015. There were 41 patients (male:female = 28:13). The mean age of patients was 57.2 ± 7.2 years at the time of operation (range, 20–76 years). The mean follow-up duration was 2.1 years (range, 0.5–5 years) after implant placement. Regarding the method of sinus elevation, only the lateral approach was included in this study. Results Ninety-nine implants were placed in 41 patients whose sinus membranes were perforated during lateral approach. The perforated sinus membranes were repaired with a resorbable collagen membrane. Simultaneous implant placements with sinus bone grafting were performed in 37 patients, whereas delayed placements were done in four patients. The average residual bone height was 3.4 ± 2.0 mm in cases of simultaneous implant placement and 0.6 ± 0.9 mm in cases of delayed placement. Maxillary bone graft with implant placement, performed on the patients with a perforated maxillary sinus membrane did not fail, and the cumulative implant survival rate was 100%. Conclusions In patients with perforations of the sinus mucosa, sinus elevation and implant placement are possible regardless of the location and size of membrane perforation. Repair using resorbable collagen membrane is a predictable and reliable technique.

Abstract
Background The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate the clinical utility of an implant with a sandblasted, large-grit, acid-etched (SLA) surface and internal connection. Methods Six patients who received dental implants in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Chonnam National University Dental Hospital, were analyzed by factors influencing the success rate and marginal bone loss. Factors included patient’s age, sex, implant installation site, whether bone graft was done, type of bone graft materials, approaching method if sinus lift was done, and the size of the fixture. In addition, the marginal bone loss was analyzed by using a radiograph. Results All implants were successful, and the cumulative survival rate was 100 %. Average marginal bone loss of 6 months after the installation was 0.52 mm and 20 months after the functional loading was 1.06 mm. Total marginal bone resorption was 1.58 mm on average. There was no statistically significant difference in mesial and distal marginal bone loss. Conclusions The short-term clinical success rate of the implant with an SLA surface and internal connection was satisfactory. Moreover, the marginal bone loss was also consistent with the implant success criteria.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to compare preoperatively predicted rotational relapse with actual post-treatment mandibular position after mandibular setback surgery via the surgery-first approach and to evaluate the effect of the increase of vertical dimension (VD) on surgical occlusion and the amount of mandibular setback on postoperative mandibular positional changes. STUDY DESIGN Twenty-nine patients who underwent bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy for mandibular prognathism were evaluated by using lateral cephalograms, which had been obtained preoperatively, immediately postoperatively, and immediately after debonding. Increase of VD on surgical occlusion was measured preoperatively. We estimated the mandibular forward movement resulting from the postoperative mandibular anticlockwise rotation during postoperative orthodontic treatment and compared it with the actual post-treatment mandibular position. RESULTS The actual postoperative mandibular forward movement (2.1 mm) was significantly greater compared with the forward movement (1 mm) predicted preoperatively (P < .01). The postoperative mandibular forward movement was greater in the groups with greater VD increase (>1.5 mm) or greater mandibular setback (>10 mm), even though there was no statistically significant difference. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that additional postoperative relapse may occur with mandibular rotational relapse, and VD increase and the amount of mandibular setback may affect post-treatment mandibular position in surgery-first orthodontic treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Healing of bone defects is a dynamic and orchestrated process that relies on multiple growth factors and cell types. Bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) is a key growth factor for bone healing, which stimulates mesenchymal stem cells to differentiate into osteoblasts. Betulinic acid (BetA) is a natural pentacyclic triterpenoid from plants. This study aimed to examine combinatory effects of BetA and BMP2 on ectopic bone generation in mice. RESULTS In MC3T3-E1 preosteoblast culture, 10-15 μM of BetA increased the alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and expression levels of osteogenic marker genes without the decreased cell viability. In addition, BetA synergistically enhanced BMP2-induced gene expressions and mineralization with the enhancement of phosphorylation of Smad1/5/8 and p38. In an in vivo ectopic bone formation model, combination of BetA (50 μg) and BMP2 (3 μg) resulted in increases in the amount of new bone generation, compared with treatment with BMP2 alone. Histological studies showed that bone generation with cortical and trabecular structures was resulted from the combination of BetA and BMP2. CONCLUSION BetA can enhance in vivo osteogenic potentials of BMP2, possibly via stimulating Smad 1/5/8 and p38 pathways, and combination of both agents can be considered as a therapeutic strategy for bone diseases.

Abstract
Periodontal diseases are infectious polymicrobial inflammatory diseases that lead to destruction of the periodontal ligament, gingiva, and alveolar bone. Sequential colonization of a broad range of bacteria, including Fusobacterium nucleatum and Porphyromonas gingivalis, is an important phenomenon in this disease model. F. nucleatum is a facultative anaerobic species thought to be a key mediator of dental plaque maturation due to its extensive coaggregation with other oral bacteria, while P. gingivalis is an obligate anaerobic species that induces gingival inflammation by secreting various virulence factors. The formation of a bacterial complex by these two species is central to the pathogenesis of periodontal disease. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are produced during bacterial infections and are involved in intracellular signaling. However, the impact of oral bacteria-induced ROS on the ecology of F. nucleatum and P. gingivalis has yet to be clarified. In the present study, we investigated ROS production induced in primary human oral cells by F. nucleatum and P. gingivalis and its effect on the formation of their bacterial complexes and further host cell apoptosis. We found that in primary human gingival fibroblasts (GFs), two NADPH oxidase isoforms, NOX1 and NOX2, were activated in response to F. nucleatum infection but not P. gingivalis infection. Accordingly, increased NADPH oxidase activity and production of superoxide anion were observed in GFs after F. nucleatum infection, but not after P. gingivalis infection. Interestingly, in NOX1, NOX2, or NOX1/NOX2 knockdown cells, the number of P. gingivalis decreased when the cells were coinfected with F. nucleatum. A similar pattern of host cell apoptosis was observed. This implies that F. nucleatum contributes to attachment of P. gingivalis by triggering activation of NADPH oxidase in host cells, which may provide an environment more favorable to strict anaerobic bacteria and have a subsequent effect on apoptosis of host cells.

Abstract
In this study, 3D polycaprolactone (PCL) scaffolds were fabricated by 3D printing technique. The macro/nano morphology of, 3D PCL scaffolds surface was etched with oxygen plasma. Acrylic acid (AA) plasma-polymerization was performed to functionalize the macro/nano surface with carboxyl groups and then collagen was immobilized with plasma-polymerized 3D PCL scaffolds. After O2 plasma and AA plasma-polymerization, contact angles were decreased. The FE-SEM and AFM results showed that O2 plasma is increased the surface roughness. The MTT assay results showed that proliferation of the M3CT3-E1 cells increased on the oxygen plasma treated and collagen immobilized 3D PCL scaffolds.

Abstract
Background This study was performed to evaluate their 5-year survival rates and identify the factors affecting the prognosis of oral cancer patients who had undergone surgical treatment only. Methods Among 130 patients who were diagnosed with malignant tumor of oral, maxillofacial, and surgical treated in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at Chonnam National University Hospital within a period from January 2000 to December 2010, for 11 years, 84 patients were investigated who were followed up for more than 5 years after radical surgery; oral cancer is primary and received only surgical treatment. The survival rate according to gender, age, type and site of cancer, TNM stage, cervical lymph node metastasis and its stage, recurrence or metastasis, time of recurrence and metastasis, and differentiation were investigated and analyzed. Results Overall, 5-year survival rate in patients who received only surgical treatment was 81.2 %, and disease-specific 5-year survival rate was 83.1 %. The disease-specific 5-year survival rate based on TNM stage, metastasis of cervical lymph node, N stage, and presence of recurrence/metastasis was a significant difference (p < 0.05). The disease-specific 5-year survival rate based on sex, age, type of tumor, primary site, and differentiation was not a significant difference (p > 0.05). Conclusions These results suggest that good survival rate can be obtained with surgical treatment only, and stage of oral cancer, cervical lymph node metastasis and stage, recurrence or metastasis, time of recurrence, and metastasis have a significant effect on survival rate in oral cancer patients.

Abstract
Aptamers are composed of single-stranded oilgonucleotides that can selectively bind desired molecules. It has been reported that RNA or DNA could act as not only a genetic messenger but also a catalyst in metabolic pathways. RNA aptamers (average sizes 40-50 bp) are smaller than antibodies and have strong binding capacities to target molecules, similar to antigen-antibody interactions. Once an aptamer was selected, it can be readily produced in large quantities at low cost. The objectives of this study are to screen and develop aptamers specific to oral pathogens such as Porphyromonas gingivalis, Treponema denticola, and Streptococcus mutans. The bacterial cell pellet was fixed with formaldehyde as a target molecule for the screening of aptamers. The SELEX method was used for the screening of aptamers and a modified western blot analysis was used to verify their specificities. Through SELEX, 40 kinds of aptamers were selected and the specificity of the aptamers to the bacterial cells was confirmed by modified western blot analysis. Through the SELEX method, 40 aptamers that specifically bind to oral pathogens were screened and isolated. The aptamers showed possibility as effective candidates for the detection agents of oral infections.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study was performed to evaluate three-dimensional positional change of the condyle using three-dimensional computed tomography (3D-CT) following unilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (USSRO) in patients with mandibular prognathism. METHODS This study examined two patients exhibiting skeletal class III malocclusion with facial asymmetry who underwent USSRO for a mandibular setback. 3D-CT was performed before surgery, immediately after surgery, and 6 months postoperatively. After creating 3D-CT images by using the In-vivo 5™ program, the axial plane, coronal plane, and sagittal plane were configured. Three-dimensional positional changes from each plane to the condyle, axial condylar head axis angle (AHA), axial condylar head position (AHP), frontal condylar head axis angle (FHA), frontal condylar head position (FHP), sagittal condylar head axis angle (SHA), and sagittal condylar head position (SHP) of the two patients were measured before surgery, immediately after surgery, and 6 months postoperatively. RESULTS In the first patient, medial rotation of the operated condyle in AHA and anterior rotation in SHA were observed. There were no significant changes after surgery in AHP, FHP, and SHP after surgery. In the second patient, medial rotation of the operated condyle in AHA and lateral rotation of the operated condyle in FHA were observed. There were no significant changes in AHP, FHP, and SHP postoperatively. This indicates that in USSRO, postoperative movement of the condylar head is insignificant; however, medial rotation of the condylar head is possible. Although three-dimensional changes were observed, these were not clinically significant. CONCLUSIONS The results of this study suggest that although three-dimensional changes in condylar head position are observed in patients post SSRO, there are no significant changes that would clinically affect the patient.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate implant-supported restoration as a technique for restoring missing teeth in patients with aplastic anemia. Recurrent bleeding from wound sites leads to persistent release of iron in the tissue. Excessive iron in tissue is related to clinical findings, including fibrosis, poor wound healing, and high level of angiogenesis, which are possible etiological factors of reduced osseointegration. A 44-year-old female patient with aplastic anemia was treated with multiple endosseous implants throughout the mandible and in the posterior region of the maxilla. After 14 implants were placed, radiological and clinical parameters were assessed during the follow-up period. Marginal bone did not change significantly during the follow-up period. The fine trabecular bone in intimate contact and enclosing the implant fixture was sufficient for successful osseointegration. None of the 14 implants were associated with compilations during the seven-year experimental period. This study suggests that dental implant procedures are a safe and reliable treatment option for restoration of missing dentition in patients with aplastic anemia.

Abstract
Polycaprolactone (PCL)/TiO2 composite films (PTCFs) were prepared by a solvent casting method at various concentrations of TiO2 (1, 3, 5, and 10 wt%) and then treated using oxygen plasma. The hydrophilicity of the oxygen plasma treated PTCFs increased as the treatment time was increased, due to the oxygen induced production of polar species at the surface of the PTCFs. In vitro bioactivities of the composite films were examined by immersion in simulated body fluid for up to 7 days. It was found that the oxygen plasma treatment significantly influenced the in vitro bioactivity of the PTCFs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To compare the different resorption patterns between resorbable membrane barrier and periosteum after iliac block bone grafting radiographically and histologically. METHODS Eighteen mature male rabbits weighing from 2.0 to 2.5 kg were used. The recipient site was the rabbit skull, and autogenous iliac bone was used as the grafting material. The harvested iliac block bones were divided in the following groups: autogenous iliac block bone with preservation of the periosteum (the periosteum group), autogenous iliac block bone covered with a resorbable collagen membrane (Biomesh®, Samyang Co, Korea) after removing the periosteum (the collagen membrane group), and autogenous iliac block bones with removal of the periosteum (the control group). In each experimental group, periosteum or resorbable collagen membrane of the donor site was fixed directed to the periosteum of the recipient site. The specimens were examined macroscopically, radiographically, histologically, and histomorphometrically at every 2, 4, and 8 weeks. RESULTS All groups presented excellent bone graft healing state without inflammation, dehiscence, or displacement. The radiolucency increased from mild to moderate in all groups over the experiment. The mean thickness of the upper end of the cortical iliac bone graft was statistically significantly different between the control group and the periosteum group, between the four-week and eight-week control group, and between the four- week and eight-week periosteum group (p & 0.05). CONCLUSION This study suggests that both the periosteum and the resorbable collagen membrane may help to prevent soft tissue infiltration into the bone graft and to reduce bone graft resorption compared to block graft alone.

Abstract
Mammalian peroxiredoxin V (PrdxV) is a multifunctional protein that protects cells from DNA damage and inhibits stress-induced apoptosis. However, PrdxV is also known to be involved in modulating lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced host cell signaling, but its precise role is not fully understood. In this study, we used stably transfected RAW264.7 cells and transiently transfected 293-mTLR4-MD2-CD14 cells expressing wild-type (WT) or mutant (C48S) PrdxV to characterize the function and mechanism of action of PrdxV in LPS-induced immune responses. We found that PrdxV selectively reduces production of interleukin 6 (IL-6) by inhibiting activation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 5 (Stat5) through interaction with Jak2. Notably, this activity of PrdxV was dependent on its catalytic Cys48 residue, but not its peroxidase activity. The binding of to Jak2 effectively inhibited Jak2 phosphorylation, but PrdxV did not act as efficiently as SOCS1 (suppressor of cytokine signaling 1). Our results suggest that PrdxV is a key mediator contributing to the regulation of LPS/TLR4-induced immune responses.

Abstract
Objectives This retrospective study was performed to evaluate the clinical impact of diabetes mellitus on the prognosis in secondary space infection. Materials and Methods Medical records, radiographic images, computed tomography, and microbial studies of 51 patients (25 diabetic patients and 26 non-diabetic patients) were reviewed. Patients were diagnosed as secondary fascial space infections with odontogenic origin and underwent treatment at Chonnam National University Hospital, in Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, from January 2007 to February 2009. Results Compared to patients without diabetes, patients with diabetes were presented with the following characteristics: older age (diabetic patients: 62.9 years, non-diabetic patients, 47.8 years), more spaces involved (diabetic patients, 60%; non-diabetic patients, 27.3%), more intense treatment, longer hospitalization (diabetic patients, 28.9 days; non-diabetic patients, 15.4 days), higher white blood cell and C-reactive protein values, higher incidence of complication (diabetic patients, 40%; non-diabetic patients, 7.7%), and distinctive main causative microorganisms. Conclusion These results suggest that the prognosis of diabetic patients is poorer than that of non-diabetic patients in secondary space infections since they had greater incidence rates of involved spaces, abnormal hematologic findings, more complications, and additional procedures, such as tracheostomy.
