[PMID: 38780351 DOI: 10.1111/iej.14083] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2023] [Revised: 04/05/2024] [Accepted: 04/28/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024]
Abstract
AIM Calcium hydroxide (CH) has been considered as a direct pulp capping materials (DPC) for the last decades despite having some limitations. Phosphorylate pullulan (PPL) incorporated with CH (CHPPL) is a novel biomaterial that was introduced as a promising DPC material. Thus, the aim of the study was to evaluate the inflammatory response and mineralized tissue formation (MTF) ability of PPL-based CH formulations on rat molars after DPC. METHODOLOGY This study consisted of six groups: CH with 1% PPL (CHPPL-1); 3% PPL (CHPPL-3); 5% PPL (CHPPL-5); Dycal and NEX MTA Cement (N-MTA) as the positive control, and no capping materials (NC). One hundred twenty maxillary first molar cavities were prepared on Wistar rats. After capping, all the cavities were restored with 4-META/MMA-TBB resin and pulpal responses were evaluated at days 1, 7, and 28. Kruskal-Wallis followed by Mann-Whitney U-test was performed with a significance level of 0.05. Immunohistochemical expression of IL-6, Nestin, and DMP-1 was observed. RESULTS At day 1, CHPPL-1, N-MTA, and Dycal exhibited no to mild inflammation, whilst CHPPL-3, CHPPL-5, and NC showed mild to moderate inflammation, and the results were significantly different (p < .05). At day 7, mild to moderate inflammation was observed in CHPPL-1, N-MTA, and Dycal, whereas CHPPL-3, CHPPL-5, and NC exhibited moderate to severe inflammation. Significant differences were observed between CHPPL-1 and N-MTA with NC (p < .05), CHPPL-1 and CHPPL-3 with CHPPL-5 and Dycal (p < .05), and CHPPL-3 with N-MTA (p < .05). A thin layer of mineralized tissue formation (MTF) was observed in all groups. At day 28, CHPPL-1, Dycal, and N-MTA showed no to mild inflammation, whilst CHPPL-3, CHPPL-5, and NC exhibited mild to severe inflammation, and statistically significant difference was detected (p < .05). CHPPL-1, Dycal, and N-MTA exhibited continuous MTF, whilst CHPPL-3, CHPPL-5, and NC had thicker and interrupted MTF. Significant differences were observed between CHPPL-1, CHPPL-3, and N-MTA with NC group (p < .05). Variable expressions of IL-6, Nestin, and DMP-1 indicated differences in the materials' impact on odontoblast-like cell formation and tissue mineralization. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that CHPPL-1 has the potential to minimize pulpal inflammation and promote MTF and had similar efficacy as MTA cement.

Clin Exp Dent Res 2024; 10:e816. [PMID: 38053499 PMCID: PMC10860438 DOI: 10.1002/cre2.816] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2023] [Revised: 10/25/2023] [Accepted: 10/31/2023] [Indexed: 12/07/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Migration and differentiation of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) is a vital and key factor in the success of reparative dentin formation for maintenance of pulp vitality. Pulp capping materials are used to stimulate DPSCs to induce new dentin formation. Thus, the aim of the present study was to compare the response of DPSCs to four commercially available pulp capping materials: a bioactive bioceramic (Material 1), a nonresinous ready-to-use bioceramic cement (Material 2), a bioactive composite (Material 3), and a biocompatible, dual-cured, resin-modified calcium silicate (Material 4). MATERIALS AND METHODS hDPSCs were isolated and cultured from freshly extracted teeth and were then characterized by flow cytometry and multilineage differentiation. Discs prepared from pulp capping materials were tested with hDPSCs and MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) assay, cell migration assay and odontogenic differentiation assay was performed. Expression of osteogenic markers (osteopontin, RUNX family transcription factor 2, osteocalcin) and the odontogenic marker (dentin sialophosphoprotein) was detected using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS Materials 1, 2, and 3 generated more cell viability than Material 4. Furthermore, Material 4 showed the least wound exposure percentage, while Material 3 showed the highest percentage. Enhanced mineralization was found in hDSCPs cultured with Material 3, followed by Material 1, and then Material 2, while Material 4 revealed the least calcified mineralization. CONCLUSIONS The results of this study were inconclusive regards contemporary bioceramic materials designed for vital pulp therapy as they have different effects on hDPSC. Further testing for cytotoxicity using live-dead staining, animal experiments, clinical trials, and independent analyses of these biomaterials is necessary for clinicians to make an informed decision for their use.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pulp inflammation is complex interactions between different types of cells and cytokines. To mimic the interactions of different types of cells in inflamed dental pulp tissues, dental pulp cells (DPCs) were cocultured with different ratios of macrophages (THP-1) or LPS treatment. METHODS DPCs were cocultured with various ratios of THP-1, then photographed cell morphology and determined cell viability by MTT assay at preset times. Total RNA was also extracted to measure the inflammation marker-IL-6 and IL-8 expressions by RT-Q-PCR. The DPCs and THP-1 were treated with 0.01 - 1μg/ml lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and extract RNA at preset times, and detected IL-6 and IL-8 expression. DPCs were cocultured with various ratios of THP-1 with 0.1 μg/mL LPS, and detected IL-6 and IL-8 expression after 24 and 48 h. The data were analyzed by unpaired t-test or Mann-Whitney test. Differences were considered statistically significant when p < 0.05. RESULTS THP-1 and DPCs coculture models did not suppress the viability of DPCs and THP-1. Cocultured with various ratios of THP-1 could increase IL-6 and IL-8 expressions of DPCs (p = 0.0056 - p < 0.0001). The expressions of IL-6 and IL-8 were stronger in higher ratio groups (p = 0.0062 - p < 0.0001). LPS treatment also induced IL-6 and IL-8 expressions of DPCs and THP-1 (p = 0.0179 - p < 0.0001 and p = 0.0189 - p < 0.0001, separately). Under the presence of 0.1 μg/mL LPS, DPCs cocultured with THP-1 for 24 h also enhanced IL-6 and IL-8 expression (p = 0.0022). After cocultured with a higher ratio of THP-1 for 48 h, IL-6 and IL-8 expressions were even stronger in the presence of LPS (p = 0.0260). CONCLUSIONS Coculturing dental pulp cells and macrophages under LPS treatment aggravate the inflammatory process. The responses of our models were more severe than traditional inflamed dental models and better represented what happened in the real dental pulp. Utilizing our models to explore the repair and regeneration in endodontics will be future goals.

Assessment of pH Value and Release of Calcium Ions in Calcium Silicate Cements: An In Vitro Comparative Study. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 16:6213. [PMID: 37763492 PMCID: PMC10532804 DOI: 10.3390/ma16186213] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2023] [Revised: 09/07/2023] [Accepted: 09/11/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023]
Abstract
The goal of this study was to evaluate the pH and the release of calcium from four calcium-silicate-based cements. METHODS Four materials were tested (ProClinic MTA; Angelus MTA; ProRoot MTA; Biodentine). The palatal canal root of acrylic upper molars was filled with each cement. Afterwards, they were set in phosphate-buffered saline. Measurements were taken by atomic adsorption spectroscopy (AAS) at 3, 24, 72, 168, 336, 672, and 1008 h. The pH was measured at the same timepoints. Kruskal-Wallis tests were carried out in each period, as the Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Shapiro-Wilk tests showed no parametric results. RESULTS Significant differences (p < 0.05) in calcium release were found at the 3-, 24-, and 72-hour evaluations. All of the analyzed groups presented a release of calcium ions up to 168 h, and the general tendency was to increase up to 672 h, with a maximum release of 25.45 mg/g in the ProRoot group. We could only observe significant differences (p < 0.05) in pH value over 168 h between the Biodentine (7.93) and Angelus MTA (7.31) groups. CONCLUSIONS There were significant differences (p < 0.05) in calcium release. Nevertheless, no significant differences (p > 0.05) in the pH values were found at the studied timepoints, except for the values at 168 h.

Abstract
Introduction Untreated dental decay poses a significant oral health challenge, leading to pain, tooth loss, and infections. Fluoride varnishes are in prolonged contact with the tooth surface and this prevents dental decay. However, limited research has been conducted regarding the cytotoxicity and cytocompatibility of varnishes on oral cells. Recent studies have shed light on the cytotoxic effect of these varnishes on human fibroblast cells. Material and Methods The fibroblasts were isolated and cultured in 0.00001, 0.0001, 0.001, 0.01, 0.1, and 1 % fluoride concentration The cells were incubated for 72 hours at a temperature of 37°C and cell viability after the application of varnish was assessed using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5 diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Results This study observed that fluoride varnish had a concentration dependant cytotoxic effect on human gingival fibroblasts (hGFs). As the concentration of fluoride increased, the cell viability decreased. At 1% concentration, there was maximum cell cytotoxicity. At the lowest concentration (0.00001), more than 78% of the cells were found to be viable. Conclusion Further research is necessary to develop safer and more biocompatible fluoride varnish formulations to ensure their efficacy in preventing dental caries without causing harm to oral tissues.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Platelet concentrates combined with calcium silicate cements may promote reparative dentin formation. However, few studies have reported their effect on dental pulp inflammation. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of concentrated growth factor (CGF) combined with iRoot BP Plus on inflammatory human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) in vitro and inflamed pulp in rats in vivo. METHODS The proliferation of LPS-stimulated hDPSCs treated with 50% CGF with/without 25% iRoot BP Plus was evaluated using Cell Counting Kit-8 on days 1, 4 and 7. The expression of genes associated with inflammation on day 1 and differentiation on day 14 was analysed by real-time polymerase chain reaction. The exposed pulp of rat maxillary molars was injected with 10 mg/mL LPS and directly capped with CGF membrane with/without iRoot BP Plus extract for 1, 7 and 28 days. The teeth were subjected to histologic analyses and immunohistochemistry. RESULTS The proliferation rates of the inflammatory hDPSCs after the combination treatment were significantly higher than those after the other treatments on days 4 and 7 (P < 0.05). IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α levels were increased in inflammatory hDPSCs but decreased after treatment with CGF combined with iRoot BP Plus extract, whereas IL-4 and IL-10 showed the opposite expression patterns. Expression of the odontogenesis-related genes OCN, Runx2, and ALP was dramatically enhanced by combined treatment with CGF and iRoot BP Plus extract. In rat pulp, the average inflammation scores of the CGF and CGF-iRoot BP Plus groups significantly decreased in comparison with those of the LPS group (P < 0.05), and the CGF-iRoot BP Plus group had more reparative dentin than the CGF and BP groups. Immunohistochemical staining showed fewer M1 macrophages on day 1 and more M2 macrophages on day 7 in the CGF-iRoot BP Plus group than in the other groups. CONCLUSIONS The combination of CGF and iRoot BP Plus showed a synergistic effect on anti-inflammatory potential and promoted greater pulp healing than CGF or iRoot BP Plus alone.

Abstract
Introduction
This study aimed to compare the micro-shear bond strength (µSBS) performances of two resin-based calcium silicate-based cement (CSC) (TheraCal PT and TheraCal LC), Biodentine, and two modified-MTA CSC materials (NeoMTA 2 and BioMTA+) to bulk-fill restorative material.
Materials and Methods
Fifty 3D printed cylindrical resin blocks with a central hole were used (2 mm in depth and 4 mm in diameter). CSCs were placed in the holes (per each group n = 10) and incubated for 24 h. Cylindrical polyethylene molds (2 mm in height and diameter) were used to place the bulk-fill restorative materials on the CSCs and polymerize for 20 s. Then, all specimens were incubated for 24 h at 37 °C at a humidity of 100%. Specimen’s µSBSs were determined with a universal testing machine. Data were analyzed with one-way ANOVA (Welch) and Tamhane test.
Results
Statistically higher µSBS was found for TheraCal PT (29.91 ± 6.13 MPa) (p < 0.05) respect to all the other materials tested. TheraCal LC (20.23 ± 6.32 MPa) (p > 0.05) reported higher µSBS than NeoMTA 2 (11.49 ± 5.78 MPa) and BioMTA+ (6.45 ± 1.89 MPa) (p < 0.05). There was no statistical difference among TheraCal LC, NeoMTA 2 and Biodentine (15.23 ± 7.37 MPa) and between NeoMTA 2 and BioMTA+ (p > 0.05).
Conclusion
Choosing TheraCal PT as the pulp capping material may increase the adhesion and µSBS to the bulk-fill composite superstructure and sealing ability.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION An ideal filling material should hermetically seal the communication pathways between the canal system and surrounding tissues. Therefore, during the last few years, the development of obturation materials and techniques to create optimal conditions for the proper healing of apical tissues has been a focus of interest. The effects of calcium silicate-based cements (CSCs) on periodontal ligament cells have been investigated, and promising results have been obtained. To date, there are no reports in the literature that have evaluated the biocompatibility of CSCs using a real-time live cell system. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the real-time biocompatibility of CSCs with human periodontal ligament cells (hPDLCs). METHODOLOGY hPDLC were cultured with testing media of endodontic cements for 5 days: TotalFill-BC Sealer, BioRoot RCS, Tubli-Seal, AH Plus, MTA ProRoot, Biodentine, and TotalFill-BC RRM Fast Set Putty. Cell proliferation, viability, and morphology were quantified using real-time live cell microscopy with the IncuCyte S3 system. Data were analyzed using the one-way repeated measures (RM) analysis of variance multiple comparison test (p < .05). RESULTS Compared to the control group, cell proliferation in the presence of all cements was significantly affected at 24 h (p < .05). ProRoot MTA and Biodentine lead to an increase in cell proliferation; there were no significant differences with the control group at 120 h. In contrast, Tubli-Seal and TotalFill-BC Sealer inhibited cell growth in real-time and significantly increased cell death compared to all groups. hPDLC co-cultured with sealer and repair cements showed a spindle-shaped morphology except with cements Tubli-Seal and TotalFill-BC Sealer where smaller and rounder cells were obtained. CONCLUSIONS The biocompatibility of the endodontic repair cements performed better than the sealer cements, highlighting the cell proliferation of the ProRoot MTA and Biodentine in real-time. However, the calcium silicate-based TotalFill-BC Sealer presented a high percentage of cell death throughout the experiment similar to that obtained.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To explore the inflammatory and differentiation response in inflamed dental pulp cells (DPCs) induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) under different conditions with Biodentine and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS DPCs were treated with 0.001-1 µg/mL LPS for different periods to induce inflammation. Normal and inflamed DPCs were further treated with 0.14 mg/mL Biodentine or 0.13 mg/mL MTA for different periods. mRNA expression level of IL-6, IL-8 and ALP were analysed by qPCR. DSPP protein expression was detected by western blot. The data were analysed by the Mann-Whitney test, unpaired t test or two-way ANOVA. RESULTS After treatment for different times and with different concentrations of LPS, different severity of pulp inflammation was revealed by the expressions of IL-6 and IL-8. Higher concentrations of LPS induced higher IL-6 and IL-8 expressions, and these expressions first increased and then decreased (p < 0.0001). At 96 and 192 h, Biodentine significantly suppressed IL-6 expression in both normal and inflamed DPCs (p < 0.05). At 48 and 96 h, Biodentine suppressed ALP expression in both normal and inflamed DPCs (p < 0.05). At 48 and 96 h, Biodentine induced DSPP expressions in both normal and inflamed DPCs (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Biodentine enhanced more DSPP differentiation of both normal and inflamed DPCs under different treatment durations than MTA. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The prognosis of vital pulp therapy may depend on the severity of pulp inflammation which is difficult to be determined in clinical settings. Therefore, Biodentine may enhance odontogenic differentiation in different severity of pulp inflammation imply its clinical indications.

Dentin Sialoprotein/Phosphophoryn (DSP/PP) as Bio-Inductive Materials for Direct Pulp Capping. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14173656. [PMID: 36080731 PMCID: PMC9460548 DOI: 10.3390/polym14173656] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/29/2022] [Revised: 08/26/2022] [Accepted: 08/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Conventional direct pulp capping, such as calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) or silicate products, usually induces an inflammatory reaction to provoke pulp regeneration. Phosphophoryn (PP) and dentin sialoprotein (DSP), the two most abundant non-collagenous proteins in the dentin matrix, are responsible for dentin mineralization, pulp cell migration, and differentiation. Here we examined the PP and combined DSP/PP as bio-inductive pulp capping materials by in vitro and in vivo tests. Firstly, the effects of the PP dose on pulp cell migration and matrix protein expression were examined by an agarose bead test. Secondly, the role of recombinant DSP (recDSP) and recDSP/PP on stimulating DSP-PP transcript expression was examined by RT-PCR. DSPP mRNA was also knocked down by RNA interference (RNAi) to examine their functions on dentin matrix mineralization. Finally, we used ferret animal models to test PP and recDSP/PP acting as capping agents on in vivo pulp responses and reparative dentin formation. The result showed that intermediate-dose PP was the most effective to enhance cell migration and differentiation. RecDSP/PP strongly enhanced the DSP-PP transcript expression, while inhibition of DSPP mRNA expression by siRNAs partially or completely affected dental pulp cell mineralization. The in vivo results showed that intermediate-dose PP and recDSP/PP proteins induced less pulp inflammation and promoted reparative dentin formation. Contrarily, conventional calcium hydroxide induced severe pulp inflammation. With these findings, DSP and PP could serve as capping agents for pulp capping therapy.

The Immunomodulatory and Regenerative Effect of Biodentine™ on Human THP-1 Cells and Dental Pulp Stem Cells: In Vitro Study. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2022; 2022:2656784. [PMID: 36093401 PMCID: PMC9462999 DOI: 10.1155/2022/2656784] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/12/2022] [Revised: 06/09/2022] [Accepted: 08/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Background Pulp tissue affected by deep caries and trauma can be protected by vital pulp therapies in which pulp regeneration success depends on the degree of pulp inflammation and the presence of regenerative signals. Reparative dentinogenesis requires dental pulp stem cell (DPSC) activity which can be stimulated by many bioactive molecules to repair the dentine, mediating a balance between the inflammatory response and the reparative events. Therefore, this study was performed in order to investigate the immune-inflammatory effect of Biodentine capping material on DPSCs and macrophages. Method THP-1, a human monocytic cell line, was differentiated to macrophages, and flow cytometry was used to analyze the expressions of specific macrophage markers. LPS-mediated infection was created for macrophages and DPSCs followed by treatment with Biodentine. CBA array was used to investigate the cytokine secretion followed by qPCR. Migration potential of treated DPSCs was also determined. Results Our results showed that THP-1 cell line was successfully differentiated into macrophages as shown by surface marker expression. CBA array and qPCR results showed that Biodentine-treated DPSCs and macrophages upregulated anti-inflammatory cytokines and downregulated proinflammatory cytokines. Also, Biodentine enhances the migration potential of treated DPSCs. Conclusion Biodentine capping material mediated the polarization of M1 to M2 macrophages suggestive of tissue repair properties of macrophages and enhanced the anti-inflammatory cytokines of DPSCs responsible for dentine-pulp regeneration.

[PMID: 35447294 DOI: 10.1016/j.joen.2022.04.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2022] [Revised: 04/09/2022] [Accepted: 04/10/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Regeneration of the pulp-dentin complex hinges on functionally diverse growth factors, cytokines, chemokines, signaling molecules, and other secreted factors collectively referred to as trophic factors. Delivery of exogenous factors and induced release of endogenous dentin-bound factors by conditioning agents have been explored towards these goals. The aim of this study was to investigate a promising regeneration strategy based on the conditioning of dental pulp cells (DPCs) with polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid [poly(I:C)] for amplification of endogenous trophic factors. METHODS DPCs were isolated from human dental pulps, propagated in culture, and treated with an optimized dose of poly(I:C). MTT assay and metabolite analysis were conducted to monitor the cytotoxicity of poly(I:C). ELISA and qPCR assays were performed to quantify induction of trophic factors in response to DPC conditioning. Statistical significance was P < .05. RESULTS Analysis of 32 trophic factors involved in Wnt signaling, cell migration and chemotaxis, cell proliferation and differentiation, extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling and angiogenesis, and immunoregulation revealed that DPCs abundantly express many trophic factors including AMF, BDNF, BMP2, FGF1, FGF2, FGF5, HGF, MCP1, NGF, SDF1, TGFβ1, TIMP1, TIMP2, TIMP3, and VEGF-A, many of which were further induced by DPC conditioning; induction, which was significant for BDNF, EGF, HGF, LIF, MCP1, SDF1, IL6, IL11, MMP9 and TIMP1. Both DPCs proliferation and lactate production (P < .05) were inhibited by 8 μg/ml poly(I:C) relative to the control. CONCLUSIONS In vitro DPC conditioning through poly(I:C) activation of TLR3 led to amplification of trophic factors involved in tissue repair. The strategy offers promise for endodontic regeneration and tooth repair and warrants further investigation.

Abstract
Objective This study sought to evaluate the biocompatibility of Neomineral Trioxide Aggregate (Neo-MTA), MTA Repair High Plasticity (MTA-HP), and Mineral Trioxide Aggregate-Angelus white (MTA-Ang) in fibroblasts of human dental pulp. Materials and Methods Morphology was evaluated after 24 h of incubation. LIVE/DEAD assay and cell adhesion tests were performed at 24 h of treatment. Cell proliferation assays (MTSs) and Annexin V were performed at 48 h incubation with different treatments. The expression of Col-1 and TGF-β1 was tested by endpoint PCR at 5 days of treatment. Results Morphological changes were observed in all groups. Neo-MTA and MTA-Ang were associated with increased cell viability, and all materials induced apoptosis, with a higher percentage in the MTA-HP group than in the other groups. In the LIVE/DEAD assay, there was more damage to the cell membrane in the group of cells treated with MTA-HP than in the other groups. Conclusion Neo-MTA and MTA-Ang presented similar biocompatibility, and both showed greater biocompatibility than MTA-HP. MTA-HP and MTA-Ang increased Col-1A gene expression, and Neo-MTA and MTA-Ang increased TGF-β1 gene expression in a similar way.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the subcutaneous connective tissue response of isogenic mice exposed to tricalcium silicate (Biodentine) and aggregated mineral trioxide (ProRoot MTA). A total of 120 mice were divided into 4 groups in 3 different experimental periods (7, 21 and 63 days): Biodentine; Pro-Root MTA; zinc oxide-eugenol and; Negative control - Sham. After the experimental periods microscopic descriptive, semi-quantitative and quantitative analysis of the inflammatory process were analyzed on H&E sections and evaluation of the gene expression of Il10, Infg, Il6, Il1r1 and Tnf (qRT-PCR) were performed. The data obtained were analyzed using the chi-square test and two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by the Bonferroni post-test (5% significance level). Results: In the microscopic analysis, a slight inflammatory infiltrate was observed, with a predominance of sparse macrophages and polymorphonuclear cells, slight tissue fibrosis, regular fibrous capsule and with dystrophic calcifications, in all groups that received the materials (Biodentine and Pro-Root MTA). In parallel, all materials modulated the gene expression of the different cytokines and receptors evaluated. Conclusion: Pro-Root MTA and Biodentine showed a tissue compatibility, mediated inflammation, with increased fibrous tissue and production of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines.

Abstract
Unrestrained inflammation is harmful to tissue repair and regeneration. Immune cell membrane-camouflaged nanoparticles have been proven to show promise as inflammation targets and multitargeted inflammation controls in the treatment of severe inflammation. Prevention and early intervention of inflammation can reduce the risk of irreversible tissue damage and loss of function, but no cell membrane-camouflaged nanotechnology has been reported to achieve stage-specific treatment in these conditions. In this study, we investigated the prophylactic and therapeutic efficacy of fibroblast membrane-camouflaged nanoparticles for topical treatment of early inflammation (early pulpitis as the model) with the help of in-depth bioinformatics and molecular biology investigations in vitro and in vivo. Nanoparticles have been proven to act as sentinels to detect and competitively neutralize invasive Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide (E. coli LPS) with resident fibroblasts to effectively inhibit the activation of intricate signaling pathways. Moreover, nanoparticles can alleviate the secretion of multiple inflammatory cytokines to achieve multitargeted anti-inflammatory effects, attenuating inflammatory conditions in the early stage. Our work verified the feasibility of fibroblast membrane-camouflaged nanoparticles for inflammation treatment in the early stage, which widens the potential cell types for inflammation regulation.

Effectiveness of Direct Pulp Capping Bioactive Materials in Dentin Regeneration: A Systematic Review. MATERIALS 2021; 14:ma14226811. [PMID: 34832214 PMCID: PMC8621741 DOI: 10.3390/ma14226811] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2021] [Revised: 10/29/2021] [Accepted: 11/09/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
Background: Regenerative endodontics aims to restore normal pulp function in necrotic and infected teeth, restoring protective functions, such as innate pulp immunity, pulp repair through mineralization, and pulp sensibility. The aim of this systematic review was to assess the dentin regeneration efficacy of direct pulp capping (DPC) biomaterials. Methods: The literature published between 2005 and 2021 was searched by using PubMed, Web of Science, Science Direct, Google Scholar, and Scopus databases. Clinical controlled trials, randomized controlled trials, and animal studies investigating DPC outcomes or comparing different capping materials after pulp exposure were included in this systematic review. Three independent authors performed the searches, and information was extracted by using a structured data format. Results: A total of forty studies (21 from humans and 19 from animals) were included in this systemic review. Histological examinations showed complete/partial/incomplete dentin bridge/reparative dentin formation during the pulp healing process at different follow-up periods, using different capping materials. Conclusions: Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) and Biodentine can induce dentin regeneration when applied over exposed pulp. This systematic review can conclude that MTA and its variants have better efficacy in the DPC procedure for dentin regeneration.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objectives of this study are to investigate, over time, the antimicrobial activity against polymicrobial biofilms and ability to inhibit biofilm formation, of Biodentine (BD) alone and with 5% and 10% sodium diclofenac (DC). MATERIAL AND METHODS The antimicrobial activity of BD alone and modified with 5% and 10% DC against polymicrobial biofilm growth in dentin was determined by a modified direct contact test. The study groups were (1) BD; (2) BD + 5% DC; and (3) BD + 10% DC. The viability of microorganisms after 1 and 4 weeks was quantified by means of an ATP assay and flow cytometry. The antibiofilm efficacy of the materials, preventing polymicrobial biofilm formation over time, was assessed by confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). RESULTS The results obtained with both the ATP test and flow cytometry showed that BD alone and with 5% and 10% DC exerted antibiofilm activity with respect to the control, in the two evaluated times (p < 0.001). Comparison between groups showed a tendency of increased antimicrobial effect, both over time and depending on the DC concentration. These results coincide with those obtained in CLSM analysis, where efficacy increased with time and DC concentration. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE Biodentine, over time, showed antimicrobial and antibiofilm efficacy on polymicrobial biofilms. The addition of 5% and 10% DC to BD enhanced this effect, in a concentration- and time-dependent manner.

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
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of novel polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) doped with melatonin (ML) on nano-hardness, crystallinity and ultrastructure of the formed hydroxyapatite after endodontic treatment. METHODS Undoped-NPs and ML-doped NPs (ML-NPs) were tested at radicular dentin, after 24 h and 6 m. A control group without NPs was included. Radicular cervical and apical dentin surfaces were studied by nano-hardness measurements, X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. Mean and standard deviation were analyzed by ANOVA and Student-Newman-Keuls multiple comparisons (p < 0.05). RESULTS Cervical dentin treated with undoped NPs maintained its nano-hardness values after 6 m of storage being [24 h: 0.29 (0.01); 6 m: 0.30 (0.02) GPa], but it decreased at apical dentin [24 h: 0.36 (0.01); 6 m: 0.28 (0.02) GPa]. When ML-NPs were used, nano-hardness was similar over time [24h: 0.31 (0.02); 6 m: 0.28 (0.03) GPa], at apical dentin. Root dentin treated with ML-NPs produced, in general, high crystallinity of new minerals and thicker crystals than those produced in the rest of the groups. After 6 m, crystals became organized in randomly oriented polyhedral, square polygonal block-like apatite or drop-like apatite polycrystalline lattices when ML-NPs were used. Undoped NPs generated poor crystallinity, with preferred orientation of small crystallite and increased microstrain. SIGNIFICANCE New polycrystalline formations encountered in dentin treated with ML-NPs may produce structural dentin stability and high mechanical performance at the root. The decrease of mechanical properties over time in dentin treated without NPs indicates scarce remineralization potential, dentin demineralization and further potential degradation. The amorphous stage may provide high hydroxyapatite solubility and remineralizing activity.

Abstract
Bioactive calcium silicate cement Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) has been used for years as a gold standard in intravital pulp treatment and specialist endodontic procedures. Owing to flaws of the material, the manufacturers have been trying to enhance and produce materials showing improved physical, chemical and biological parameters. One of the new calcium-silicate cements based on mineral trioxide aggregate, however without some flaws exhibited by the cement, is Mineral Trioxide Aggregate Repair High Plasticity (MTA HP). The aim of the present paper was a systematic literature review concerning the MTA HP material used nowadays in dentistry, as a review of its specific features. The present paper is the first article providing a systematic literature review on MTA HP. The aim of the present article is the better understanding of MTA HP properties, which can aid the decision-making process in endodontic treatment.

Abstract
Dental pulp is a dynamic tissue able to heal after injury under moderate inflammatory conditions. Our study aimed to evaluate pulp repair under inflammatory conditions in rats. For this purpose, we developed a rat model of controlled pulpitis followed by pulpotomy with a tricalcium silicate-based cement. Fifty-four cavities were prepared on the occlusal face of the maxillary upper first molar of 27 eight-week-old male rats. E. coli lipopolysaccharides at 10 mg/mL or phosphate-buffered saline PBS was injected after pulp injury. Non-inflamed molars were used as controls. Levels of inflammation-related molecules were measured 6 and 24 h after induction by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay of coronal pulp samples. Pulp capping and coronal obturation after pulpotomy were performed with tricalcium silicate-based cement. Four and fifteen days after pulpotomy, histological and immunohistochemical analysis was performed to assess pulp inflammation and repair processes. Our results showed significantly higher levels of innate inflammatory proteins (IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α and CXCL-1) compared with those in controls. Moderate residual inflammation near the capping material was demonstrated by histology and immunohistochemistry, with the presence of few CD68-positive cells. We showed that, in this model of controlled pulpitis, pulpotomy with BiodentineTM allowed the synthesis at the injury site of a mineralized bridge formed from mineralized tissue secreted by cells displaying odontoblastic characteristics. Analysis of these data suggests overall that, with the limitations inherent to findings in animal models, pulpotomy with a silicate-based cement is a good treatment for controlling inflammation and enhancing repair in cases of controlled pulpitis.

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
The scratch assay is an in vitro technique used to analyze cell migration, proliferation, and cell-to-cell interaction. In the assay, cells are grown to confluence and then ‘scratched’ with a sterile instrument. For the cells in the leading edge, the resulting polarity induces migration and proliferation in attempt to ‘heal’ the modeled wound. Keloid scars are known to have an accelerated wound closure phenotype in the scratch assay, representing an overactivation of wound healing. We performed a qualitative review of the recent literature searching for inhibitors of scratch assay activity that were already available in topical formulations under the hypothesis that such compounds may offer therapeutic potential in keloid treatment. Although several shortcomings in the scratch assay literature were identified, caffeine and allicin successfully inhibited the scratch assay closure and inflammatory abnormalities in the commercially available keloid fibroblast cell line. Caffeine and allicin also impacted ATP production in keloid cells, most notably with inhibition of non-mitochondrial oxygen consumption. The traditional Chinese medicine, shikonin, was also successful in inhibiting scratch closure but displayed less dramatic impacts on metabolism. Together, our results partially summarize the strengths and limitations of current scratch assay literature and suggest clinical assessment of the therapeutic potential for these identified compounds against keloid scars may be warranted.

Abstract
Vital pulp therapy, including direct pulp capping and partial and full pulpotomy, is primarily indicated for immature or mature permanent teeth with reversible pulpitis. Mature permanent teeth with irreversible pulpitis are frequently treated with root canal therapy. This report presents two cases of full pulpotomy using BiodentineTM in mature permanent teeth with irreversible pulpitis and acute apical periodontitis. The periapical radiograph illustrated a deep carious lesion extended to the pulp with apical radiolucency lesion or widened periodontal ligament space. Full pulpotomy with a tricalcium silicate-based cement was chosen as the definitive treatment. After decayed tissue excavation under a rubber dam, the exposed pulp tissue was amputated to the level of the canal orifice with a new sterile bur. BiodentineTM was applied as the pulp capping agent after hemostasis was obtained and for temporary restoration. The clinical signs disappeared quickly after the treatment. After one month, the coronal part of the temporary restoration was removed, and a composite resin was placed over the capping agent as a final restoration. At two-year follow-ups, the teeth were asymptomatic. Radiographs showed healing of the periapical lesion and periodontal ligament. BiodentineTM full pulpotomy of mature permanent teeth with irreversible pulpitis and apical periodontitis can be an alternative option to root canal therapy.

Abstract
Dental cavities are the most prevalent, preventable disease worldwide providing a need for robust treatment options to restore both the form and function of decaying teeth. Here is a presentation of a possible regenerative pulp capping agent that can serve to restore tooth function while regenerating healthy dentin tissue over a long period of time. To achieve this goal a material needs to crosslink quickly, be structurally rigid, and support the proliferation and differentiation of stem cells contained within the dental pulp. In this study, calcium phosphate nanoparticles were embedded in polymer hydrogels of carboxymethyl-chitosan and a diglycidyl ether. The particle size, surface, and mechanical properties of these materials were characterized. These composites have moduli up to 3 MPa, support the culture of dental pulp stem cells more than 3 weeks and exhibit osteogenic potential even without osteogenic media. These composites demonstrate a promising potential as the next generation of pulp capping materials.

Abstract
Calcium silicate cements (CSCs) are the choice materials for vital pulp therapy because of their bioactive properties, promotion of pulp repair, and dentin bridge formation. Despite the significant progress made in understanding CSCs' mechanisms of action, the key events that characterize the early interplay between CSC-dentin-pulp are still poorly understood. To address this gap, a microfluidic device, the "tooth-on-a-chip," which was developed to emulate the biomaterial-dentin-pulp interface, was used to test 1) the effect of CSCs (ProRoot, Biodentine, and TheraCal) on the viability and proliferation of human dental pulp stem cells, 2) variations of pH, and 3) release within the pulp chamber of transforming growth factor-β (TGFβ) as a surrogate of the bioactive dentin matrix molecules. ProRoot significantly increased the extraction of TGFβ (P < 0.05) within 24 to 72 h and, along with Biodentine, induced higher cell proliferation (P > 0.05), while TheraCal decreased cell viability and provoked atypical changes in cell morphology. No correlation between TGFβ levels and pH was observed. Further, we established a biofilm of Streptococcus mutans on-chip to model the biomaterial-biofilm-dentin interface and conducted a live and dead assay to test the antimicrobial capability of ProRoot in real time. In conclusion, the device allows for direct characterization of the interaction of bioactive dental materials with the dentin-pulp complex on a model of restored tooth while enabling assessment of antibiofilm properties at the interface in real time that was previously unattainable.

Abstract
Calcium silicate-based bioceramics have been applied in endodontics as advantageous materials for years. In addition to excellent physical and chemical properties, the biocompatibility and bioactivity of calcium silicate-based bioceramics also serve an important role in endodontics according to previous research reports. Firstly, bioceramics affect cellular behavior of cells such as stem cells, osteoblasts, osteoclasts, fibroblasts and immune cells. On the other hand, cell reaction to bioceramics determines the effect of wound healing and tissue repair following bioceramics implantation. The aim of the present review was to provide an overview of calcium silicate-based bioceramics currently applied in endodontics, including mineral trioxide aggregate, Bioaggregate, Biodentine and iRoot, focusing on their in vitro biocompatibility and bioactivity. Understanding their underlying mechanism may help to ensure these materials are applied appropriately in endodontics.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the in vitro cytotoxicity of four commercial topical fluoride varnishes widely used in daily dental practice for the prevention of caries on human fibroblasts: Cervitec F, Fixofluor, Fluor Protector S and Duraphat. MATERIAL AND METHODS Human gingival fibroblasts (hGF) were exposed to different concentrations of fluoride varnishes extracts. Biological assays, including MTT and IC50 value determination, annexin-V/7-AAD staining, cell migration and F-actin staining with phalloidin were carried out. Statistical analyses were performed using one-way ANOVA and Tukey's post hoc test. RESULTS At 4% concentration, all of the fluoride varnishes extracts affected fibroblasts metabolic activity, exhibiting a high degree of cytotoxicity at all measured time points. At 0.1% and 1%, Duraphat and Fixofluor or Fluor Protector S and Cervitec F exerted the lowest or highest cytotoxic effects, respectively. Similar effects were evidenced when induction of apoptosis/necrosis and cell migration assays were analyzed. Immunocytochemical assays revealed a similar number of fibroblasts, without changes in the morphology and F-actin content at 0.1% concentration of all tested materials, while at 1% concentration, Fluor Protector S and Cervitec F showed few cells with aberrant morphology or non-adhered cells, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Different commercial topical fluoride varnishes with the same therapeutic indication may exhibit different biological effects and cytotoxicity on fibroblasts.

Abstract
AIM To explore the proliferation, adhesion and differentiation response and the underlying mechanisms that occur in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflamed dental pulp cells (DPCs) in contact with Biodentine and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA). METHODOLOGY The DPCs were isolated from three healthy donors and named DPC-H1 to DPC-H3. The DPCs were pre-cultured with 2 or 5 μg mL-1 LPS for 24 h to induce inflammation. The expression of inflammation marker miR-146a was detected by q-PCR. The normal and LPS-induced DPCs were further treated with 0.14 mg mL-1 Biodentine or 0.13 mg mL-1 MTA for 24 h. MTT assay and adhesion assay were used to analyse the changes of cell phenotypes. DSPP, AKT and ERK expressions were detected by Western blotting. The data were analysed by Mann-Whitney test or two-way anova. Differences were considered statistically significant when P < 0.05. RESULTS In LPS-induced DPCs, Biodentine and MTA treatment neither induced nor aggravated LPS-induced inflammation, but their presence did increase the expression of the odontogenic differentiation marker DSPP. Under 2 or 5 μg mL-1 LPS-induced inflammation, Biodentine and MTA promoted the proliferation of DPC cells, and significantly in DPC-H2 (P < 0.0001 for both reagents). With the treatment of 2 μg mL-1 LPS, the cell adhesion of DPCs on the fibronectin-coated culture plates was increased significantly by Biodentine (P = 0.0413) and MTA (P < 0.0001). Biodentine and MTA regulated cell adhesion on the fibronectin-coated culture plates (P < 0.0001 for both reagents) and proliferation (P < 0.0001 for both reagents) via the AKT pathway. However, the AKT pathway was not involved in the expression of DSPP induced by Biodentine and MTA. CONCLUSION Biodentine and MTA enhanced the proliferation, adhesion and differentiation of LPS-induced DPCs. The proliferation and adhesion process induced by Biodentine and MTA was via the AKT pathway. However, the cellular differentiation process might not use the same pathway, and this needs to be explored in future studies.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the effects of N-acetyl cysteine (NAC), Biodentine, ProRoot MTA and their combinations, on cell viability, mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mtROS) production, mineralization and on the expression of genes related to inflammatory cytokine production, mitochondrial dynamics and cell apoptosis of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced human dental pulp cells (hDPCs). METHODOLOGY Isolated hDPCs were exposed to 20 μg mL-1 of Escherichia coli (E. coli) LPS for 24 h, before the experiment, except for the control group. Eight experimental groups were assigned: (i) control (hDPCs cultured in regular medium), (ii) +LPS (hDPCs cultured in LPS medium throughout the experiment), (iii) -LPS/Media, (iv) -LPS/BD, (v) -LPS/MTA, (vi) -LPS/NAC, (vii) -LPS/BD + NAC and (viii) -LPS/MTA + NAC. Cell viability was measured using Alamar blue assay at 24 and 48 h. Production of mtROS was evaluated at 6 and 24 h by MitoSOX Red and MitoTracker Green. The expressions of IL-6, TNF-α, Bcl-2, Bax, Mfn-2 and Drp-1 genes were investigated at 6 h using reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). For differentiation potential, cells were cultured in the osteogenic differentiation media and stained using Alizarin red assay at 14 and 21 days. The Kruskal-Wallis test, Mann-Whitney U test and one-way anova were performed for statistical analysis. RESULTS NAC was associated with significantly greater LPS-induced hDPC viability (P < 0.05). Both Biodentine and MTA extracts promoted cell survival, whereas the combination of NAC to these material extracts significantly increased the number of viable cells at 24 h (P < 0.05). Biodentine, MTA or NAC did not alter the mtROS level (P > 0.05). NAC supplementation to the MTA extract significantly reduced the level of IL-6 and TNF-α expression (P < 0.05). Regarding mitochondrial dynamics, the use of NAC alone promoted significant Mfn-2/Drp-1 expression (P < 0.05). Most of the groups exhibited a level of Bcl-2/Bax gene expression similar to that of the control group. The increases in mineralization productions were observed in most of the groups, except the LPS group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The antioxidant effect of NAC was not evident under the LPS-induced condition in DPC in vitro. NAC combined either with Biodentine or MTA improved LPS-induced hDPCs survival at 24 h. The combination of NAC with MTA promoted mineralization.

Sahin N, Saygili S, Akcay M. Clinical, radiographic, and histological evaluation of three different pulp-capping materials in indirect pulp treatment of primary teeth: a randomized clinical trial. Clin Oral Investig 2021; 25:3945-3955. [PMID: 33404764 DOI: 10.1007/s00784-020-03724-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/05/2020] [Accepted: 12/01/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this randomized, controlled, three-arm parallel group, and double-blinded clinical trial was to evaluate the clinical, radiographic, and histopathological success of three different pulp-capping materials in one-stage indirect pulp treatment of primary teeth. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study included a total of 109 patients aged 5-9 years who had primary teeth with deep carious lesions and symptoms of reversible pulpitis. The teeth were divided into three groups according to the pulp-capping agents: (I) hard-setting calcium hydroxide (Dycal) (control group) (n = 36), (II) bioactive tricalcium silicate (Biodentine) (n = 37), and (III) resin-based tricalcium silicate (TheraCal LC) (n = 36). All the teeth were evaluated clinically and radiographically at 6, 12, 18, and 24 months postoperatively. A total of 23 primary mandibular second molars that were in their regular exfoliation period (24-40 months) were extracted and fixed in 10% formaldehyde solution. The specimens were evaluated histologically to assess the integrity of the odontoblastic layer, tertiary dentin formation quality of the dentin formed, severity of pulpitis, and other pulpal changes. Data were analyzed using Fisher's exact test, Pearson's chi-square test, and McNemar's test (p = 0.05). RESULTS At the end of the 24-month follow-up period, the clinical and radiographic success rates for Dycal, Biodentine, and TheraCal LC were 100%, 100%, and 93.3%, respectively, and there was no significant difference among the groups (p > 0.05). However, the TheraCal LC group was statistically unsuccessful when compared to the other groups with regard to the integrity of the odontoblastic layer, severity of pulpitis, and other pulpal changes in histological examination (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Indirect pulp capping exhibited high clinical and radiographic success rates in the treatment of primary teeth regardless of the chosen pulp-capping agent. However, histological examination indicated that the pulp status was affected by the chosen capping material especially when selecting a resin-containing material such as TheraCal LC. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Resin-free calcium silicate-based materials appear to be more favorable in the indirect pulp treatment of primary teeth, particularly in young-age groups that require long-term success.

The Influence of New Silicate Cement Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA Repair HP) on Metalloproteinase MMP-2 and MMP-9 Expression in Cultured THP-1 Macrophages. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 22:ijms22010295. [PMID: 33396675 PMCID: PMC7795909 DOI: 10.3390/ijms22010295] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2020] [Revised: 12/23/2020] [Accepted: 12/24/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate the new silicate cement mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA Repair HP) with respect to its effect on the inflammation process involving the tooth and periodontal tissues. The composition of MTA Repair HP was supplemented with plasticizer agents which can have a negative effect on the modulation of tooth inflammation. The silicate-based material in question is widely used in regeneration of the pulp-dentin complex, treatment of perforations of various locations in the tooth, as well as in surgical treatment of the complications of periapical tissue. The improved bioceramic restorative cement can affect the expression of metalloproteinases MMP-2 and MMP-9 in monocytes/macrophages involved in modulation of inflammation and regenerative processes of the tooth and periodontal tissues. The novel aspect of the present study lies in the application of the model of THP-1 monocyte/macrophage and applying the biomaterial in direct contact with the cells. Hence, it provides a representation of clinical conditions with respect to regenerative pulp and periodontal treatment with the use of MTA Repair HP. A lack of macrophage activation (as measured with flow cytometry) was found. Moreover, the study identified a lack of expression stimulation of the studied metalloproteinases (with the use of Western blotting and fluorescent microscopy). Similarly, no increase in MMP-2 and MMP-9 concentration was found (measured by ELISA method) in vitro when incubated with MTA Repair HP. Based on the results it can be concluded that new MTA Repair HP does not increase the inflammatory response in monocytes/macrophages associated with the activity of the described enzymes. It can also be speculated that they do not affect the process of dentin regeneration in which MMP-2 and MMP-9 play significant roles.

Abstract
Simple Summary Normal blood cells are formed in the bone marrow by a process called hematopoiesis. This process is supported by a network of non-hematopoietic cells including connective tissue cells, blood vessel cells and bone-forming cells. However, these cells can also support the growth of cancer cells, i.e., hematological malignancies (e.g., leukemias) and cancers that arise in another organ and spread to the bone marrow. Two of these cancer-supporting normal cells are bone-forming osteoblasts and a subset of connective tissue cells called mesenchymal stem cells. One mechanism for their cancer support is the release of proteins that support cancer cell proliferation and progression of the cancer disease. Our present study shows that both these normal cells release a wide range of proteins that support cancer cells, and inhibition of this protein-mediated cancer support may become a new strategy for cancer treatment. Abstract Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and osteoblasts are bone marrow stromal cells that contribute to the formation of stem cell niches and support normal hematopoiesis, leukemogenesis and development of metastases from distant cancers. This support is mediated through cell–cell contact, release of soluble mediators and formation of extracellular matrix. By using a proteomic approach, we characterized the protein release by in vitro cultured human MSCs (10 donors) and osteoblasts (nine donors). We identified 1379 molecules released by these cells, including 340 proteins belonging to the GO-term Extracellular matrix. Both cell types released a wide range of functionally heterogeneous proteins including extracellular matrix molecules (especially collagens), several enzymes and especially proteases, cytokines and soluble adhesion molecules, but also several intracellular molecules including chaperones, cytoplasmic mediators, histones and non-histone nuclear molecules. The levels of most proteins did not differ between MSCs and osteoblasts, but 82 proteins were more abundant for MSC (especially extracellular matrix proteins and proteases) and 36 proteins more abundant for osteoblasts. Finally, a large number of exosomal proteins were identified. To conclude, MSCs and osteoblasts show extracellular release of a wide range of functionally diverse proteins, including several extracellular matrix molecules known to support cancer progression (e.g., metastases from distant tumors, increased relapse risk for hematological malignancies), and the large number of identified exosomal proteins suggests that exocytosis is an important mechanism of protein release.

Abstract
Conventional treatment approaches in irreversible pulpitis and apical periodontitis include the disinfection of the pulp space followed by filling with various materials, which is commonly known as the root canal treatment. Disadvantages including the loss of tooth vitality and defense mechanism against carious lesions, susceptibility to fractures, discoloration and microleakage led to the development of regenerative therapies for the dentin pulp-complex. The goal of dentin-pulp tissue regeneration is to reestablish the physiological pulp function such as pulp sensibility, pulp repair capability by mineralization and pulp immunity. Recent dentin-pulp tissue regeneration approaches can be divided into cell homing and cell transplantation. Cell based approaches include a suitable scaffold for the delivery of potent stem cells with or without bioactive molecules into the root canal system while cell homing is based on the recruitment of host endogenous stem cells from the resident tissue including periapical region or dental pulp. This review discusses the recent treatment modalities in dentin-pulp tissue regeneration through tissue engineering and current challenges and trends in this field of research.

Abstract
Upon traumatic injuries or carious lesions, the elimination of bacteria infiltrating the pulp is recognized as a prerequisite for initiating the regeneration process. Complement is a major system involved in initiating the inflammatory reaction and the subsequent bacteria elimination. This plasma system of above 35 proteins is synthesized by the liver and some immune cells. It is activated by 3 pathways: the classical, alternative, and lectin pathways that can be triggered by physical injuries, infection, and biomaterials. Recent data have shown that the pulp fibroblast represents a unique nonimmune cell type able to synthesize Complement proteins. Indeed, after physical injuries/bacteria stimulation, the pulp fibroblast has been shown to synthesize and to activate the complement system leading to the production of biologically active molecules such as C5a, C3b, and the membrane attack complex. This local secretion represents a rapid and efficient mechanism for eliminating bacteria invading the pulp, thus supporting complement activation from the plasma. Pulp fibroblast-secreted Complement proteins allow cariogenic bacteria direct lysis via membrane attack complex formation on their surface, phagocytic cell recruitment by producing C5a and cariogenic bacteria opsonization by C3b fixation on their surface, stimulating cariogenic bacteria phagocytosis. Overall, this review highlights that, in addition to initiating the inflammatory reaction, pulp fibroblasts also provide a powerful control of this inflammation via local Complement activation. The pathogen elimination capacity by fibroblast-produced complement demonstrates that this system is a strong local actor in arresting bacterial progression into the dental pulp.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To produce a novel injectable treated dentin matrix hydrogel (TDMH) to be used as a novel pulp-capping agent for dentin regeneration compared with Biodentine and MTA. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty intact fully erupted premolars scheduled to be extracted for orthodontic reasons were included. Pulps were mechanically exposed in the middle of the cavity floor. TDMH was composed of TDM powder (500-μm particle size) and sodium alginate as an injectable scaffold. The capped teeth were divided into three equal groups (n = 10): TDMH, Biodentine, and MTA respectively. Clinical examination and assessment of periapical response were performed. The teeth were extracted after 2-weeks and 2-month intervals, stained with hematoxylin-eosin, and categorized by using a histologic scoring system. Statistical analysis was performed using chi-square and Kruskal-Wallis test (p = 0.05). RESULTS All teeth were vital during observation periods. Histological analysis after 2 months showed complete dentin bridge formation and absence of inflammatory pulp response with no significant differences between groups. However, the formed dentin was significantly thicker with the TDMH group with layers of well-arranged odontoblasts that were found to form a homogenous tubular structure with numerous dentinal tubule lines showing a positive trend to dentin regeneration. CONCLUSIONS TDMH could achieve dentin regeneration and conservation of pulp vitality and might serve as a feasible natural substitute for silicate-based cements in restoring in vivo dentin defect in direct pulp-capping procedure.

Cytotoxicity and Bioactivity of Dental Pulp-Capping Agents towards Human Tooth-Pulp Cells: A Systematic Review of In-Vitro Studies and Meta-Analysis of Randomized and Controlled Clinical Trials. MATERIALS 2020; 13:ma13122670. [PMID: 32545425 PMCID: PMC7345102 DOI: 10.3390/ma13122670] [Citation(s) in RCA: 35] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/15/2020] [Revised: 06/06/2020] [Accepted: 06/08/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Background. In the era of biology-driven endodontics, vital pulp therapies are regaining popularity as a valid clinical option to postpone root-canal treatment. In this sense, many different materials are available in the market for pulp-capping purposes. Objectives. The main aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to examine literature regarding cytotoxicity and bioactivity of pulp-capping agents by exposure of human dental pulp cells of primary origin to these materials. A secondary objective was to evaluate the inflammatory reaction and reparative dentin-bridge formation induced by the different pulp-capping agents on human pulp tissue. Data sources. A literature search strategy was carried out on PubMed, EMBASE and the Web of Science databases. The last search was done on 1 May 2020. No filters or language restrictions were initially applied. Two researchers independently selected the studies and extracted the data. Study selection included eligibility criteria, participants and interventions, study appraisal and synthesis methods. In vitro studies were included when human dental pulp cells of primary origin were (in) directly exposed to pulp-capping agents. Parallel or split-mouth randomized or controlled clinical trials (RCT or CCT) were selected to investigate the effects of different pulp-capping agents on the inflammation and reparative bridge-formation capacity of human pulp tissue. Data were synthesized via odds ratios (95% confidence interval) with fixed or random effects models, depending on the homogeneity of the studies. The relative risks (95% confidence interval) were presented for the sake of interpretation. Results. In total, 26 in vitro and 30 in vivo studies were included in the systematic review and meta-analysis, respectively. The qualitative analysis of in vitro data suggested that resin-free hydraulic calcium-silicate cements promote cell viability and bioactivity towards human dental pulp cells better than resin-based calcium-silicate cements, glass ionomers and calcium-hydroxide cements. The meta-analysis of the in vivo studies indicated that calcium-hydroxide powder/saline promotes reparative bridge formation better than the popular commercial resin-free calcium-silicate cement Pro-Root MTA (Dentsply-Sirona), although the difference was borderline non-significant (p = 0.06), and better than calcium-hydroxide cements (p < 0.0001). Moreover, resin-free pulp-capping agents fostered the formation of a complete reparative bridge better than resin-based materials (p < 0.001). On the other hand, no difference was found among the different materials tested regarding the inflammatory effect provoked at human pulp tissue. Conclusions. Calcium-hydroxide (CH) powder and Pro-Root MTA (Dentsply-Sirona) have shown excellent biocompatibility in vitro and in vivo when tested on human cells and teeth. Their use after many years of research and clinical experience seems safe and proven for vital pulp therapy in healthy individuals, given that an aseptic environment (rubber dam isolation) is provided. Although in vitro evidence suggests that most modern hydraulic calcium-silicate cements promote bioactivity when exposed to human dental pulp cells, care should be taken when these new materials are clinically applied in patients, as small changes in their composition might have big consequences on their clinical efficacy. Key findings (clinical significance). Pure calcium-hydroxide powder/saline and the commercial resin-free hydraulic calcium-silicate cement Pro-Root MTA (Dentsply-Sirona) are the best options to provide a complete reparative bridge upon vital pulp therapy.

Abstract
BiodentineTM is a material based on hydrated calcium silicate with odontotropic properties. However, from the clinician’s perspective, every material used to fill a tooth—even those showing the optimal biochemical parameters—is in fact a foreign body introduced to the organism of the host. Therefore, apart from the chemical parameters of such materials, equally important is the so-called biocompatibility of such materials. The aim of the study was to investigate whether BiodentineTM, used in the regeneration of the pulp-dentine complex, may affect the expression of the enzymes cyclooxygenase 1 (COX1) and cyclooxygenase 2 (COX2) in THP-1 monocytes/macrophages and the amount of prostanoids synthesized by these enzymes-precursors of biologically active prostanoids such as prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and thromboxane (TXB2) which are mediators of inflammation. An original aspect of this research is the use of the THP-1 monocyte/macrophage cell model and the use of biomaterial in direct contact with cells. In this way we tried to reflect the clinical conditions of regenerative pulp and periodontal tissue treatment using BiodentineTM. The results of our study showed a lack of macrophage activation (measured by flow cytometry) and a lack of stimulation of the expression of the studied cyclooxygenase enzymes (measured by Western blotting and fluorescent microscopy), as well as a lack of increase in the concentration (measured by ELISA method) of their inflammatory mediators (PGE2 and TXB2) in vitro incubated with BiodentineTM.

Abstract
The article is aimed at analyzing the available research and comparing the properties of bio-inductive materials in direct and indirect pulp capping procedures. The properties and clinical performances of four calcium-silicate cements (ProRoot MTA, MTA Angelus, RetroMTA, Biodentine), a light-cured calcium silicate-based material (TheraCal LC) and an enhanced resin-modified glass-ionomer (ACTIVA BioACTIVE) are widely discussed. A correlation of in vitro and in vivo data revealed that, currently, the most validated material for pulp capping procedures is still MTA. Despite Biodentine’s superiority in relatively easier manipulation, competitive pricing and predictable clinical outcome, more long-term clinical studies on Biodentine as a pulp capping agent are needed. According to available research, there is also insufficient evidence to support the use of TheraCal LC or ACTIVA BioACTIVE BASE/LINER in vital pulp therapy.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether the incorporation of an acidic monomer into the pulp-capping material TheraCal LC, which has a weak dentin bonding, increases the shear bond strength (SBS) to dentin. Di-2-hydroxyethyl methacryl hydrogenphosphate was incorporated into the material at 0.0 (TL0, control), 5.0 (TL5), and 10.0 (TL10) wt%. The water contact angle (CA) and mechanical properties for each material were also studied (n = 6). Debonding was performed at two different times (immediate and after 24 h) (n = 12). Hydroxyl and calcium ion releases in water at 37 °C were monitored up to 28 days (n = 6). The addition of the acidic monomer decreased the CAs (p < 0.001) and increased the flexural moduli (p < 0.001). The debonding time did not significantly affect the SBS values (p = 0.600). The TL10 group exhibited the highest SBS values, followed by the TL5 group. The TL10 group released significantly more calcium ions than the other two groups from 3 days (p < 0.05). The incorporation of the acidic monomer at 10.0 wt% into TheraCal LC enhanced bonding to dentin, while not negatively affecting the mechanical properties and ion-leaching capacity of the material.

Abstract
New bioactive materials have been developed for retrograde root filling. These materials come into contact with vital tissues and facilitate biomineralization and apical repair. The objective of this study was to evaluate the cytocompatibility and bioactivity of two bioactive cements, Bio-C Repair (Angelus, Londrina, Pr, Brazil) and TotalFill BC RRM putty (FGK, Dentaire SA, La-Chaux-de-fonds, Switzerland). The biological properties in human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) that were exposed to Bio-C Repair and TotalFill BC RRM putty were studied. Cell viability, migration, and cell adhesion were analyzed. Moreover, qPCR and mineralization assay were performed to evaluate the bioactivity potential of these cements. The results were statistically analyzed using ANOVA and the Tukey test (p < 0.05). It was observed that cell viability and cell migration in Bio-C Repair and TotalFill BC RRM putty were similar to the control without statistically significant differences, except at 72 h when TotalFill BC RRM putty was slightly lower (p < 0.05). Excellent cell adhesion and morphology were observed with both Bio-C Repair and TotalFill BC RRM putty. Both cements promoted the osteo- and cementogenic differentiation of hPDLSCs. These results suggest that Bio-C Repair and TotalFill BC RRM putty are biologically appropriate materials to be used as retrograde obturation material.

Effects of mineral trioxide aggregate, calcium hydroxide, biodentine and Emdogain on osteogenesis, Odontogenesis, angiogenesis and cell viability of dental pulp stem cells. BMC Oral Health 2019; 19:133. [PMID: 31266498 PMCID: PMC6604301 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-019-0827-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 48] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2018] [Accepted: 06/19/2019] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Vital pulp therapy preserves and maintains the integrity and the health of dental pulp tissue that has been injured by trauma, caries or restorative procedures. The enhancement of cells viability and formation of reparative dentine and new blood vessels are vital determinants of the success of direct pulp capping. Therefore, the aims of this study was to evaluate and compare the in vitro osteogenic, odontogenic and angiogenic effects of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), calcium hydroxide [Ca(OH)2], Biodentine and Emdogain on dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) and examine the effects of the tested materials on cell viability. METHODS DPSCs were treated with MTA, Ca(OH)2, Biodentine or Emdogain. Untreated cells were used as control. The cell viability was measured by MTT assay on day 3. Real-Time PCR with SYBR green was used to quantify the gene expression levels of osteogenic markers (alkaline phosphatase and osteopontin), odontogenic marker (dentin sialophosphoprotein) and angiogenic factor (vascular endothelial growth factor) on day 7 and day 14. RESULTS All capping materials showed variable cytotoxicity against DPSCs (77% for Emdogain, 53% for MTA, 26% for Biodentine and 16% for Ca(OH)2 compared to control (P value < 0.0001). Osteopontin (OPN) and dentin sialophosphoprotein (DSPP) gene expression was increased by all four materials. However, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was upregulated by all materials except Emdogain. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression was upregulated by all four tested materials except Ca(OH)2. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest MTA, Biodentine and Emdogain exhibit similar attributes and may score better than Ca(OH)2. Emdogain could be a promising alternative to MTA and Biodentine in enhancing pulp repair capacity following dental pulp injury. However, further future research is required to assess the clinical outcomes and compare it with the in vitro findings.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The balance between periapical tissue inflammation and regeneration after the removal of necrotic/infected tissues is pivotal in determining the success of endodontic treatment. This study was designed to investigate the effect of silicate-based root canal sealer BioRoot RCS (BRCS; Septodont, Saint-Maur-des-Fossés, France) on modulating the inflammatory mechanisms and early steps of regeneration initiated by human periodontal ligament (PDL) fibroblasts. METHODS Samples of BRCS and Pulp Canal Sealer (PCS; SybronEndo, Orange, CA) were incubated in culture medium to obtain material extracts. To simulate bacterial infection and endodontic sealer use, PDL fibroblasts were stimulated with lipopolysaccharides and cultured with material extracts. The secretion of proinflammatory cytokine (interleukin 6) and growth factor (transforming growth factor beta 1) were quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Inflammatory cell recruitment sequence was investigated using a human inflammatory monocytic cell line (THP-1) that can be activated into macrophage-like cells. The adhesion of THP-1 to endothelial cells (human umbilical vein endothelial cells) was studied using fluorescent THP-1, their migration using Boyden chambers, and their activation into macrophage-like cells using a cell adhesion assay. The proliferation of PDL fibroblasts was quantified by the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay, whereas the migration of PDL stem cells was investigated using Boyden chambers after immunofluorescence and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction characterization. RESULTS Interleukin 6 secretion decreased with BRCS, whereas it increased with PCS. Transforming growth factor beta 1 secretion significantly increased only with BRCS. The material extracts did not affect THP-1 adhesion to human umbilical vein endothelial cells, but only BRCS inhibited their migration. Moreover, activation of THP-1 decreased with BRCS and to a lesser extent with PCS. Finally, BRCS increased PDL fibroblast proliferation without affecting PDL stem cell migration. By contrast, PCS decreased PDL fibroblast proliferation and PDL stem cell migration. CONCLUSIONS This work shows that the endodontic sealers modulate the PDL inflammatory and regeneration potentials in vitro. It demonstrates that BRCS has anti-inflammatory effects and the potential to promote tissue regeneration.

Investigating unset endodontic sealers' eugenol and hydrocortisone roles in modulating the initial steps of inflammation. Clin Oral Investig 2019; 24:639-647. [PMID: 31115691 DOI: 10.1007/s00784-019-02957-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2018] [Accepted: 05/07/2019] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Endodontic treatment success is achieved not only when the cement provides a hermetic seal but also when the injured periapical tissue is regenerated. However, an exaggerated inflammatory reaction hinders tissue regeneration and it has been shown that dental materials affect the inflammatory response through modulation of cytokine secretion. This work was set to investigate the effects of the presence of hydrocortisone in zinc oxide eugenol sealers (Endomethasone N) on modulating the initial steps of inflammation in vitro. MATERIAL AND METHODS Hydrocortisone and eugenol leaching from Endomethasone N and Pulp Canal Sealer (PCS) were quantified by ELISA and spectrofluorometry, respectively. The effects of Endomethasone N and Pulp Canal Sealer were studied on lipopolysaccharides (LPS)-stimulated human periodontal ligament (hPDL) cells. Cytokine (IL-6, TNF-α) secretion from cells was quantified by ELISA. Inflammatory cell (THP-1) adhesion to activated endothelial cells, their migration and activation were studied in vitro. RESULTS Endomethasone N decreased secretion of IL-6 and TNF-α from hPDL cells. THP-1 adhesion to activated endothelial cells (HUVECs) and migration significantly decreased with Endomethasone N while no effect was observed with PCS. Activation of THP-1 decreased with both materials' extracts but was significantly lower with Endomethasone N than with PCS. CONCLUSION These results performed in vitro show that Endomethasone N anti-inflammatory effects are due to the presence of hydrocortisone. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Endomethasone N has potential local anti-inflammatory effects which appear to be due to its hydrocortisone rather than eugenol content. Decreasing the inflammatory response is a pre-requisite to initiate the periapical healing.

Abstract
The interrelations between inflammation and regeneration are of particular significance within the dental pulp tissue inextensible environment. Recent data have demonstrated the pulp capacity to respond to insults by initiating an inflammatory reaction and dentin pulp regeneration. Different study models have been developed in vitro and in vivo to investigate the initial steps of pulp inflammation and regeneration. These include endothelial cell interaction with inflammatory cells, stem cell interaction with pulp fibroblasts, migration chambers to study cell recruitment and entire human tooth culture model. Using these models, the pulp has been shown to possess an inherent anti-inflammatory potential and a high regeneration capacity in all teeth and at all ages. The same models were used to investigate the effects of tricalcium silicate-based pulp capping materials, which were found to modulate the pulp anti-inflammatory potential and regeneration capacity. Among these, resin-containing materials such as TheraCal® shift the pulp response towards the inflammatory reaction while altering the regeneration process. On the opposite, resin-free materials such as Biodentine™ have an anti-inflammatory potential and induce the pulp regeneration capacity. This knowledge contradicts the new tendency of developing resin-based calcium silicate hybrid materials for direct pulp capping. Additionally, it would allow investigating the modulatory effects of newly released pulp capping materials on the balance between tissue inflammation and regeneration. It would also set the basis for developing future capping materials targeting these processes.
