Abstract
Maintaining the viability of damaged pulp is critical in clinical dentistry. Pulp capping, by placing dental material over the exposed pulp, is a main approach to promote pulp-dentin healing and mineralized tissue formation. The dental materials are desired to impact on intricate physiological mechanisms in the healing process, including early regulation of inflammation, immunity, and cellular events. In this study, we developed an injectable dental pulp-derived decellularized matrix (DPM) hydrogel to modulate macrophage responses and promote dentin repair. The DPM derived from porcine dental pulp has high collagen retention and low DNA content. The DPM was solubilized by pepsin digestion (named p-DPM) and subsequently injected through a 25G needle to form hydrogel facilely at 37 °C. In vitro results demonstrated that the p-DPM induced the M2-polarization of macrophages and the migration, proliferation, and dentin differentiation of human dental pulp stem cells from deciduous teeth (SHEDs). In a mouse subcutaneous injection test, the p-DPM hydrogel was found to facilitate cell recruitment and M2 polarization during the early phase of implantation. Additionally, the acute pulp restoration in rat models proved that injectable p-DPM hydrogel as a pulp-capping agent had excellent efficacy in dentin regeneration. This study demonstrates that the DPM promotes dentin repair by modulating macrophage responses, and has a potential for pulp-capping applications in dental practice.

Abstract
Glioma is the most common and malignant tumor of the central nervous system. Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most aggressive glioma, with a poor prognosis and no effective treatment because of its high invasiveness, metabolic rate, and heterogeneity. The tumor microenvironment (TME) contains many tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), which play a critical role in tumor proliferation, invasion, metastasis, and angiogenesis and indirectly promote an immunosuppressive microenvironment. TAM is divided into tumor-suppressive M1-like (classic activation of macrophages) and tumor-supportive M2-like (alternatively activated macrophages) polarized cells. TAMs exhibit an M1-like phenotype in the initial stages of tumor progression, and along with the promotion of lysing tumors and the functions of T cells and NK cells, tumor growth is suppressed, and they rapidly transform into M2-like polarized macrophages, which promote tumor progression. In this review, we discuss the mechanism by which M1- and M2-polarized macrophages promote or inhibit the growth of glioblastoma and indicate the future directions for treatment.

Immunomodulatory Effects of Endodontic Sealers: A Systematic Review. Dent J (Basel) 2023; 11:dj11020054.

Abstract
Inflammation is a crucial step prior to healing, and the regulatory effects of endodontic materials on the immune response can influence tissue repair. This review aimed to answer whether endodontic sealers can modulate the immune cells and inflammation. An electronic search in Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, and Google Scholar databases were performed. This systematic review was mainly based on PRISMA guidelines, and the risk of bias was evaluated by SYRCLEs and the Modified CONSORT checklist for in vivo and in vitro studies, respectively. In total, 28 articles: 22 in vitro studies, and six in vivo studies were included in this systematic review. AH Plus and AH 26 can down-regulate iNOS mRNA, while S-PRG sealers can down-regulate p65 of NF-κB pathways to inhibit the production of TNF-α, IL-1, and IL-6. In vitro and in vivo studies suggested that various endodontic sealers exhibited immunomodulatory impact in macrophages polarization and inflammatory cytokine production, which could promote healing, tissue repair, and inhibit inflammation. Since the paradigm change from immune inert biomaterials to bioactive materials, endodontic materials, particularly sealers, are required to have modulatory effects in clinical conditions. New generations of endodontic sealers could hamper detrimental inflammatory responses and maintain periodontal tissue, which represent a breakthrough in biocompatibility and functionality of endodontic biomaterials.

Abstract
Ascorbic acid (AA; vitamin C) plays a crucial role in the biosynthesis and secretion of collagen to produce the organic matrix of hard tissues. Nevertheless, the detailed mechanism by which AA induces reparative dentinogenesis is still unknown. This study aimed to investigate the pathway and function of AA during wound healing in a rat pulpotomy model. Sodium-dependent vitamin C transporter (SVCT) 2 and glucose transporter (GLUT) 1 were detected in odontoblasts, endothelial cells, and nerve fibers in normal pulp tissues. SVCT2 and GLUT1 were also expressed in odontoblast-like cells in pulpotomized tissues of Wistar rats, and immunopositive cells of SVCT2 were significantly increased at 5 days after pulpotomy (p < 0.05). By contrast, osteogenic disorder Shionogi (ODS) rats, which cannot generate AA, also expressed SVCT2 and GLUT1 in normal and wound healing conditions. However, in ODS rats, when compared with the AA-addition group, the formation of dentin bridges in the AA-loss group was not evident, a layer of osteopontin was significantly increased beneath the wound surface (p < 0.05), and alpha smooth muscle actin at the odontoblast-like cells observed along this layer was significantly increased (p < 0.05), but not Nestin. Moreover, the amounts of type 1 collagen generated in the reparative dentin and beneath the wound healing site were significantly diminished (p < 0.05). Macrophages expressing CD68 and CD206 increased beneath the wound site. Hence, AA may be involved in odontoblast-like cell differentiation and anti-inflammatory response during dental pulp wound healing. Our results provide new insights into the function of AA through SVCT2 and GLUT1 in reparative dentinogenesis and may help in developing new therapeutic targets for dental pulpal disease.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the M1 and M2 macrophage modulation after stimuli with different materials used during endodontic treatment. In bone marrow-derived macrophage cell culture, from males C57BL/6 wild-type (WT) mice, gene expression analysis of markers to M1 and M2 macrophages was performed by qRT-PCR (Cxcl10, CxCL9, iNOS, Arg1, Chil3, Retnla and MRC1) and cytokine quantification by Luminex® (GM-CSF, IL-10, IL-6, IL-1β and TNF-α) after exposure to the five endodontic sealers: AH Plus, Sealapex Xpress, Endosequence BC Sealer, BioRoot RCS and a calcium hydroxide-based paste. For normal values, ANOVA test was used, followed by Tukey post-test. For non-normal values, the Kruskall-Wallis test was used. BioRootTM RCS and EndoSequence BC SealerTM stimulated the highest expression of markers for M1 macrophages, while calcium hydroxide-based paste stimulated the lowest expression of these gene markers. For M2 protein markers, BioRootTM RCS presented the highest stimulation while calcium hydroxide-based paste also presented the lowest stimulation. It was concluded that all the evaluated filling materials increased the genetic expression of pro- and anti-inflammatory markers: TNF-α and IL-10 respectively. The others proinflammatory mediators showed differences against the filling materials. However, this process did not induce the inflammatory response polarization, resulting in a hybrid macrophage.

Abstract
Resin monomers and polymerisation initiators have been shown to be cytotoxic for pulp cells and to disturb odontoblast differentiation. This study aimed to compare the effect of a resin-modified calcium silicate cement (TheraCal LC; TC) and a resin-free calcium silicate cement (ProRoot MTA; PR) on pulpal healing after pulpotomy. Pulpotomy was performed on the maxillary first molars of 8-week-old rats using either PR or TC. After 1, 3, 7, 14 and 28 days, pulpal responses were assessed by micro-computed tomography, haematoxylin-eosin staining and immunostaining against CD68, which is a pan-macrophage marker. The results showed that pulpotomy with TC induced persistent infiltration of inflammatory cells, including CD68-positive macrophages, and delayed the formation of reparative dentin as compared with that with PR, although both materials allowed pulpal healing over the long term. Therefore, resin-modified TC was not as biocompatible nor bioinductive as resin-free PR when applied on the healthy pulp of rat molars.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION During pulp inflammation, recruited macrophages can differentiate into 2 phenotypes: proinflammatory M1 and anti-inflammatory M2. Pulp fibroblasts have previously been shown to regulate pulp inflammation via cytokine and growth factor secretion. We hypothesized that upon carious injury, pulp fibroblasts interact with macrophages and modulate their differentiation. METHODS Cultures of pulp fibroblasts were physically injured and incubated with lipoteichoic acid (LTA) to mimic the pulp environment underlying a carious lesion. Physical injuries without LTA were performed on cultured fibroblasts to simulate the surrounding pulp tissue. Fibroblast supernatants were collected and added to undifferentiated macrophages to study their differentiation into M1 or M2 phenotypes by investigating cytokine secretion profiles and phagocytosis capacity. Histologic staining and immunofluorescence were performed on healthy and carious human tooth sections to localize the 2 macrophage phenotypes. RESULTS LTA-stimulated fibroblasts induced macrophage differentiation into the M1 phenotype with a significant increase both in tumor necrosis factor alpha secretion and phagocytosis capacity. By contrast, injured fibroblasts without LTA led to M2 differentiation with a significant increase in interleukin 10 secretion and low phagocytosis capacity. In carious teeth, M1 macrophages were detected mainly in the pulp zone underlying caries, whereas M2 macrophages were detected in the peripheral inflammatory zone. CONCLUSIONS Fibroblasts induced macrophage differentiation to proinflammatory M1 with high bacteria phagocytosis capacity to control infection at the carious front. Fibroblasts located at the periphery of the inflammatory zone induced macrophage differentiation to anti-inflammatory M2. The fine balance between the 2 phenotypes may represent a prerequisite for initiating the healing process.

Abstract
Background To investigate the odonto-immunomodulatory properties of dental pulp stem cell-derived small extracellular vesicles (DPSCs-sEV), which promote odontogenesis by switching macrophages toward the pro-healing M2 phenotype. Methods MicroRNA sequencing was carried out for microRNA profiling of DPSCs-sEV. Automated Western blot, qPCR, ELISA, and flow cytometry were performed to identify the functions of microRNA-enriched DPSCs-sEV in macrophages. A luciferase reporter gene assay was carried out to confirm exosomal miR-125a-3p’s direct target gene. DPSCs-sEV-stimulated macrophage-conditioned media were used to promote odontogenesis in DPSCs and explore the mechanism of immune response in DPSCs-SEV-stimulated odontogenesis. DPSCs-sEV were injected into the exposed pulp tissue of rat incisor to investigate the odonto-immunomodulatory properties of DPSCs-sEV in vivo. Results DPSCs-sEV switched macrophages to the pro-healing M2 phenotype by inhibiting TLR and NFκΒ signaling. MicroRNA sequencing found 81 microRNAs significantly altered in DPSCS-sEV, with miR-125a-3p showing a 12-fold upregulation. Exosomal miR-125a-3p switched macrophages toward the M2 phenotype via inhibiting NFκΒ and TLR signaling via direct IKBKB targeting. Interestingly, DPSCs-sEV and the encapsulated miR-125a-3p enhanced BMP2 release in macrophages, promoting odontogenesis in DPSCs through BMP2 pathway activation. The rat study confirmed that DPSCs-sEV could be used as ideal biomimetic tools to enhance odontogenesis by switching macrophages toward pro-healing M2 cells. Conclusions We firstly defined the odonto-immunomodulatory properties of microRNA-enriched DPSCs-sEV, which could be used as ideal biomimetic tools to enhance odontogenesis by switching macrophages toward the pro-healing M2 phenotype.

RAW264.7 cells were cultured in the presence of LPS and MTA extracts. mRNA expression levels of interleukin (IL)-1α, IL-6, early growth response 2 (Egr2), suppressor of cytokine signalling 3 (Socs3) and IL-10 were quantified with reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Phosphorylation of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) p65 in RAW264.7 cells was analysed by Western blotting. Intracellular calcium imaging was performed with Fluo-4 AM. The activity of nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) was determined by luciferase assays. Enforced expression and silencing of Egr2 in RAW264.7 cells were carried out using an expression vector and specific RNAi, respectively. In vivo kinetics of Egr2+ cells in MTA-treated rat molar pulp tissues were examined using immunohistochemistry. Data were analysed by one-way analysis of variance, followed by the Tukey-Kramer test (P < 0.05). RESULTS Exposure to MTA extracts resulted in reduced mRNA expression levels of IL-1α and IL-6, as well as reduced expression of phosphorylated NF-κB, in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. Exposure to MTA extracts induced Ca2+ influx, which was blocked by NPS2143, an antagonist of calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR); Ca2+ influx then triggered activation of calcineurin/NFAT signalling and enhanced mRNA expression of Egr2. Enforced expression of Egr2 in RAW264.7 cells promoted the expression of both IL-10 and Socs3. In vivo application of MTA onto rat molar pulp tissue resulted in the appearance of Egr2-expressing cells that coexpressed CD163, a typical M2 macrophage marker. CONCLUSIONS Mineral trioxide aggregate extracts induced downregulation of IL-1α and IL-6 in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells via CaSR-induced activation of calcineurin/NFAT/Egr2 signalling and subsequent upregulation of IL-10 and Socs3.

M2 Phenotype Macrophages Colocalize with Schwann Cells in Human Dental Pulp. J Dent Res 2020; 99:329-338.

Abstract
Macrophages are immune cells with high plasticity that perform many functions related to tissue injury and repair. They are generally categorized as 2 functional phenotypes: M1 (proinflammatory) and M2 (anti-inflammatory and prohealing). To investigate the role of macrophages in human dental pulp, we examined the localization and distributional alterations of macrophages in healthy dental pulp as well as during the reparative process of pulp capping with mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) and in cariously inflamed pulp of adult human teeth. We also quantified the populations of M1/M2 macrophages in healthy dental pulp by flow cytometric analysis. CD68+CD86+ cells (M1 phenotype) and CD68+CD163+ cells (M2 phenotype) were 2.11% ± 0.50% and 44.99% ± 2.22%, respectively, of 2.96% ± 0.41% CD68+ cells (pan-macrophages) in whole healthy dental pulp. Interestingly, M2 phenotype macrophages were associated with Schwann cells in healthy pulp, during mineralized bridge formation, and in pulp with carious infections in vivo. Furthermore, the M2 macrophages associated with Schwann cells expressed brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) under all in vivo conditions. Moreover, we found that plasma cells expressed BDNF. Coculture of Schwann cells isolated from human dental pulp and human monocytic cell line THP-1 showed that Schwann cells induced M2 phenotypic polarization of THP-1 cell-derived macrophages. The THP-1 macrophages that maintained contact with Schwann cells were stimulated, leading to elongation of their cell shape and expression of M2 phenotype marker CD163 in cocultures. In summary, we revealed the spatiotemporal localization of macrophages and potent induction of the M2 phenotype by Schwann cells in human dental pulp. M2 macrophages protect neural elements, whereas M1 cells promote neuronal destruction. Therefore, suppressing the neurodestructive M1 phenotype and maintaining the neuroprotective M2 phenotype of macrophages by Schwann cells may be critical for development of effective treatment strategies to maintain the viability of highly innervated dental pulp.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE Mineral trioxide aggregate (Pro-Root MTA, PR-MTA) and bioceramics (iRoot® SP Injectable Root Canal Sealer, iR-BC) are used for making apical plugs used in apexification, repairing root perforations during root canal therapy, and treating internal root resorption. The purpose of the present in vitro study was to compare the biological effects of PR-MTA- and iR-BC-based dental sealers in the mouse macrophage cell line RAW 264.7. METHODS Cytotoxicity and cell proliferation were analyzed using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay and cell hemocytometer, respectively. Protein expression of biomarkers of cell proliferation, autophagy, and osteoclast differentiation was determined by western blotting. Pro-inflammatory gene expression was examined using quantitative reverse transcription-PCR. RESULTS PR-MTA induced cytotoxicity in RAW 264.7 cells in a dose-dependent manner, and iR-BC was more cytotoxic than PR-MTA. Low-dose and short-term treatments of both PR-MTA and iR-BC induced RAW 264.7 cell proliferation. PR-MTA induced autophagy, whereas iR-BC did not. Neither PR-MTA nor iR-BC induced osteoclastogenesis. Pro-inflammatory genes were activated by both materials. However, the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) mRNA was upregulated by iR-BC treatment, but not by PR-MTA treatment. CONCLUSION Overall, dental PR-MTA and iR-BC induced pro-inflammatory genes but did not induce osteoclastogenesis in macrophages. PR-MTA and iR-BC induced M2 and M1 polarization, respectively, of RAW 264.7 cells.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the effects of hydrophilic dental resin monomers, triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA) and hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA), on the polarization of a human monocyte cell line (THP-1). METHODOLOGY THP-1 cells were treated with resin monomers at noncytotoxic concentrations for 48 h and were analysed for CD86 and CD206 expressions using flow cytometry. The cells were stimulated for polarization in the presence of resin monomers (co-treatment) or after treatment with monomers (pre-treatment). CD86 and CD206 mRNA in co-treated cells was evaluated using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. The release of TNF-α and TGF-β by pre-treated and co-treated cells was assessed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Morphological changes of macrophages during polarization were observed using bright-field microscopy. One-way analysis of variance was used for statistical analysis. RESULTS TEGDMA (1 mmol L-1 ) and HEMA (2 mmol L-1 ) did not induce CD86 and CD206 expressions in THP-1 cells but rather inhibited their expressions in the co-treated cells. The inhibitory effects also appeared at the transcription level. However, the expression of surface markers was not affected by pre-treatment with resin monomers. The release of TNF-α and TGF-β by M1- and M2-stimulated cells, respectively, was suppressed by co-treatment (P < 0.05). Microscopic studies revealed that co-treatment with resin monomers suppressed polarization-associated morphological changes such as cell volume increase. CONCLUSIONS TEGDMA and HEMA inhibited macrophage polarization to both M1 and M2 at the transcription level, and the inhibitory effects disappeared upon the removal of resin monomers from the cell culture.

Abstract
AIM To assess M1/M2 macrophage phenotypes in a coronal pulp regeneration model in rats, under the hypothesis that there are dynamic M1/M2 phenotype changes during the different stages of the pulp regeneration. METHODOLOGY The maxillary first molars of Wistar rats were pulpotomized, and biodegradable hydrogel-made scaffolds carrying rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were implanted in the pulp chamber. After 3, 7 and 14 days, samples were processed for (i) histological analysis and double immunoperoxidase staining for CD68 (a general macrophage marker) and one of either CCR7 (an M1 marker), CD163 (an M2 marker) or CD206 (an M2 marker); (ii) real-time PCR for AIF1 (an M1 marker), CD163, CD206, IL-10 and TNF-α mRNA expression; and (iii) Western blotting for the detection of CD68, CCR7 and CD206 proteins. RESULTS Histological analysis of the implanted region revealed sparse cellular distribution at 3 days, pulp-like tissue with a thin dentine bridge-like structure at 7 days, and dentine bridge-like mineralized tissue formation and resorption of most scaffolds at 14 days. CCR7+ macrophages had the highest density at 3 days, and then significantly decreased until 14 days (P < 0.05). In contrast, M2 marker (CD163 or CD206) expressing macrophages had the lowest density at 3 days and significantly increased until 14 days (P < 0.05). AIF1 and TNF-α mRNA levels, and CD68 and CCR7 protein levels were highest at 3 days. CD163 and CD206 mRNA levels, and CD206 protein levels increased with time and showed the highest at 14 days. IL-10 mRNA was highest at 3 days, decreased at 7 days and increased at 14 days. CONCLUSIONS Macrophages in the regenerating pulp tissue underwent a distinct transition from M1-dominant to M2-dominant, suggesting that the M1-to-M2 transition of macrophages plays an important role in creating a favourable microenvironment necessary for pulp tissue regeneration.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In this study, we examined the effect of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) on macrophage polarization and the potential involvement of Axl/nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) signaling in mediating the effect of MTA. METHODS The human monocyte cell line THP-1 was cultured with MTA solution for 1, 2, or 3 days, and the population change of M2 macrophages was analyzed by flow cytometry. Expression of M2 cytokines was examined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Phagocytosis and angiogenesis-induction ability were also assayed. The involvement of Axl/NF-κB signaling in MTA-treated cells was examined by analyzing phosphorylation status of Axl, Akt, IKKα/β, and IκBα. Specific inhibitors for Axl/Akt/NF-κB signaling were added to MTA-treated THP-1 cells, and their cytokine expression change was examined. RESULTS Flow cytometry analysis showed that MTA treatment increased CD206+ cells in a time-dependent way. After MTA treatment, the expression of M2-related cytokines was up-regulated. MTA also enhanced phagocytic ability and the ability of THP-1 cells to induce angiogenesis. Treatment of MTA led to activate Axl/Akt/NF-kB signal axis by phosphorylation of Axl, Akt, IKKα/β, IκBα, and p65. In addition, MTA-induced interleukin 10, transforming growth factor beta, and vascular endothelial growth factor expression was suppressed as specific inhibitors were added. CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicate that MTA is able to induce macrophage polarization toward the M2 phenotype, with up-regulation of interleukin 10, transforming growth factor beta, and vascular endothelial growth factor, and that Axl/Akt/NF-κB signaling participates in this process. These results provide the cellular and molecular basis of MTA's anti-inflammatory action in clinical applications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Biomaterials could affect the inflammation reaction and wound healing via the activation and polarization of macrophages. However, the influence of iRoot SP and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) on macrophage polarization under inflammatory conditions was not reported although these two root filling materials have been applied extensively in patients undergoing endodontic treatment. Therefore, the present study aimed to explore the mechanism how iRoot SP and MTA affect the cell behavior of RAW 264.7 macrophages when stimulated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in vitro. METHODS The gene expression of three main related pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-6) was examined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) in RAW 264.7 macrophages when stimulated by iRoot SP and MTA in the presence of LPS. The protein expression of the M1 and M2 phenotype specific markers, CD11c and CD206, was assessed by immunofluorescence and flow cytometry in RAW 264.7 macrophages. RESULTS LPS promoted the expression of IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6 in RAW 264.7 macrophages as compared to the control group. Both iRoot SP and MTA were significantly able to enhance the expression of IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6 in RAW 264.7 macrophages as compared to LPS group. LPS could increase the expression of CD11c as compared to the control group while iRoot SP and MTA were able to enhance the expression of both CD11c and CD206 as compared to LPS group. CONCLUSIONS iRoot SP and MTA could potentially promote the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines in RAW 264.7 macrophages and induce into M1/M2 phenotype when cultured with LPS.

Abstract
Background Keratin has shown promising outcomes as a biomaterial due to its inherent
bioactivity, biocompatibility and regenerative effects. The effect of
keratin on repair and regeneration of dental tissues has never been studied
before. Current therapies to treat pulp tissues involve its replacement with
inert, synthetic materials that do not have a proper biological function,
leading to failure and tooth loss. This study aimed to develop a
biocompatible keratin hydrogel (KH) suitable for pulp therapies. Methods Keratins extracted from sheep wool were isolated, quantified and
reconstituted to form KH. Different concentrations of keratin gel suitable
for dental application were characterized by rheological analysis. The
optimized gel based on flow characteristics was studied further for
microstructure including porosity, percentage swelling ratio and contact
angle measurements, using analytical tools such as scanning electron
microscopy (SEM), micro-computed tomography and goniometer. To assess both
biocompatibility and pulpal response, KH was implanted into rat upper molar
teeth following partial pulpotomy. After 28 days, the tissue sections were
analyzed by histological and immunohistochemical methods to identify dentin
matrix protein 1 (DMP-1) formation and compared with control
(Ca(OH)2-treated) teeth. Results The results of the study demonstrated a viscous and injectable, porous,
dimensionally stable, hydrophilic and biocompatible gel that allowed pulp
healing to occur by a reparative response, with widespread DMP-1
expression. Conclusions The findings of this study indicate that keratins can be developed as a
biomaterial source for alternate biological treatment options for pulp
therapies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study was performed to investigate the effect of iRoot SP and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) on the viability and polarization of macrophages. METHODS The effect of iRoot SP and MTA on the viability of RAW 264.7 macrophages was tested using the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay after 1 and 2days of culture. The gene expression levels of interleukin 1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin 10 (IL-10), interleukin 12p40 (IL-12p40) were measured by quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) after stimulation of the RAW 264.7 macrophages with iRoot SP and MTA. The expression levels of CD11c and CD206 in RAW 264.7 macrophages were examined by immunofluorescence and flow cytometry after stimulation with iRoot SP and MTA. The data were analyzed by one-way analysis of variance and the Tukey test. RESULTS Both iRoot SP and MTA were non-toxic to the RAW 264.7 macrophages. The use of iRoot SP and MTA increased the expression of IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-10, IL-12p40 on the first day of culture and could promote macrophage M1 and M2 polarization. CONCLUSIONS MTA and iRoot SP have good biocompatibility with macrophages, and they induced both M1 and M2 polarization of the RAW 264.7 macrophages.
