Abstract
Background Periodontitis is a chronic inflammation of the tooth supporting structures that finally can lead to tooth loss. As chronic periodontitis is associated with systemic diseases multiple approaches have been followed to support regeneration of the destructed tissue. But very few materials are actually used in the clinic. A new and promising group of biomaterials with advantageous biomechanical properties that have the ability to support periodontal regeneration are self-assembling peptides (SAP). However, there is still a lack of 3D periodontal models that can evaluate the migration potential of such novel materials. Methods All experiments were performed with primary human periodontal ligament fibroblasts (HPLF). Migration capacity was assessed in a three-dimensional model of the human periodontal ligament by measuring the migration distance of viable cells on coated (Enamel Matrix Protein (EMP), P11–4, collagen I) or uncoated human dentin. Cellular metabolic activity on P11–4 hydrogels was assessed by a metabolic activity assay. Deposition of ECM molecules in a P11–4 hydrogel was visualized by immunostaining of collagen I and III and fibrillin I. Results The 3D periodontal model was feasible to show the positive effect of EMP for periodontal regeneration. Subsequently, self-assembling peptide P11–4 was used to evaluate its capacity to support regenerative processes in the 3D periodontal model. HPLF coverage of the dentin surface coated with P11–4 increased significantly over time, even though delayed compared to EMP. Cell viability increased and inclusion of ECM proteins into the biomaterial was shown. Conclusion The presented results indicate that the 3D periodontal model is feasible to assess periodontal defect coverage and that P11–4 serves as an efficient supporter of regenerative processes in the periodontal ligament. Clinical relevance The establishment of building-block synthetic polymers offers new opportunities for clinical application in dentistry. Self-assembling peptides represent a new generation of biomaterials as they are able to respond dynamically to the changing environment of the biological surrounding. Especially in the context of peri-implant disease prevention and treatment they enable the implementation of new concepts.

Discepoli N, Mirra R, Ferrari M. Efficacy of Enamel Derivatives to Improve Keratinized Tissue as Adjunct to Coverage of Gingival Recessions: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. MATERIALS 2019; 12:ma12172790. [PMID: 31480232 PMCID: PMC6747963 DOI: 10.3390/ma12172790] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2019] [Revised: 08/24/2019] [Accepted: 08/27/2019] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Background: The systematic review was designed to answer the following focused question: Are enamel matrix derivatives able to improve the quantity of keratinized tissue (KT) around natural dentition in patients with recessions defects after their treatment with periodontal plastic procedures? Methods: Only Randomized Clinical Trials (RCT) in English language evaluating root coverage procedures in combination with enamel matrix derivatives (commercially known as Emdogain®—EMD), with at least 10 subjects and a minimum duration of six months, were included. The search was applied to PUBMED and SCOPUS and it consists of a combination of MeSH terms and free text words (from January 2000 to June 2019). Risk of bias in individual studies and across studies was also evaluated. Results: After the full text analysis and the exclusion of further 18 articles, 12 articles were finally included. In total 639 recessions were treated (334 tests and 305 control). The recessions defects were classified according to the classification of Miller (Class I, II, III, IV). Only one trial included Miller Class III recessions (7 in total). Enamel matrix derivatives were applied in conjunction with Coronally Advanced Flap (CAF), Coronally Advanced Flap + Sub Epithelial Connective Tissue Graft (CAF + CTG), Semilunar Flap (SF). For the group CAF vs CAF + EMD the mean difference between the keratinized tissue gain in the two procedures was 0.40 mm (95% Confindence Interval Lower/Upper: 0.014–0.81) (p < 0.058); for the comparison CAF + CTG + EMD vs. CAF + CTG the mean difference between the two groups resulted in −0.06 mm (95% Confindence Interval Lower Upper −0.45 to 0.33) (p = 0.7603). Discussion: Randomized clinical trials included medium-low quality evidence. The application of Enamel Matrix Derivatives to surgical procedures aimed to cover gingival recessions does not add robust clinical benefit to conventional plastic procedure alone.

Abstract
Hypoxia is a crucial microenvironment for inflamed periodontal tissue and periodontal wound healing. Enamel matrix proteins (EMPs) potentially can promote the formation of new periodontium. The effects of EMPs on periodontal ligament cells under hypoxia, however, remain unclear. We investigated the effects of EMPs on cellular biobehavior and osteogenic differentiation of human periodontal ligament cells (hPDLCs) under hypoxia. Under cobalt chloride (CoCl2)-induced hypoxia, cellular biobehavior of hPDLCs, including proliferation, attachment, spreading, and migration with or without EMPs, was evaluated by 3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazol- 2-yl)-2, 5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT), cell counting, spreading area measurement and wound scratch assay. The osteogenic activity of hPDLCs was assessed using alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and alizarin red S staining (ARS). The expressions of osteogenic genes including runt related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), ALP, osteocalcin (OCN) and collagen type I (Col-I) were detected using real time quantitative PCR, western blot and immunocytochemistry assays. The biobehavior and osteogenic differentiation of hPDLCs were inhibited significantly under hypoxia. EMPs have no effect on cell proliferation under mimicked hypoxia. EMPs partly reversed the inhibitory effects of hypoxia, however, for other cellular biobehavior including attachment, spreading and migration, and markedly up-regulated osteogenic differentiation activities including ALP, mineralization ability and the expressions of osteogenic genes such as Runx2, ALP, osteocalcin, and collagen type I in hPDLCs under hypoxia. EMPs attenuate the hypoxic injury to cellular biobehavior and osteogenic differentiation in hPDLCs under hypoxia.

Effect of the combined use of enamel matrix derivative and atelocollagen sponge scaffold on osteoblastic differentiation of mouse induced pluripotent stem cells in vitro. J Periodontal Res 2017; 53:240-249. [PMID: 29044527 DOI: 10.1111/jre.12511] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 09/07/2017] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are a candidate cell source in periodontal regenerative therapy. Enamel matrix derivative (EMD) has been shown to regenerate periodontal tissues, and atelocollagen sponge (ACS) is considered a suitable scaffold or carrier for growth factors. This study aimed to investigate the effect of combined use of EMD and an ACS scaffold on cell behaviors and differentiation of mouse iPSCs (miPSCs) in vitro. MATERIAL AND METHODS Following embryonic body formation from miPSCs, dissociated cells (miPS-EB-derived cells) were seeded onto ACS with or without EMD, and cultured in osteoblast differentiation medium. Scanning electron microscopy and histological analyses were used to assess cell morphology and infiltration within the ACS. Cell viability (metabolism) was determined using an MTS assay, and expression of mRNA of osteoblastic differentiation markers was assessed by quantitative RT -PCR. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining intensity and activity were evaluated. Mineralization was assessed by von Kossa staining, and calcium content was quantitated using the methylxylenol blue method. RESULTS By 24 hours after seeding, miPS-EB-derived cells in both the EMD and control groups had attached to and infiltrated the ACS scaffold. Scanning electron microscopy images revealed that by day 14, many cytoplasmic protrusions and extracellular deposits, suggestive of calcified matrix, were present in the EMD group. There was a time-dependent increase in cell viability up to day 3, but no difference between groups was observed at any time point. The levels expressed of ALP and osterix genes were significantly higher in the EMD group than in the control group. Expression of runt-related transcription factor 2 was increased in the EMD group compared with the control group on day 7. EMD upregulated the expression of bone sialoprotein and osteopontin on day 14, whereas expression of osteocalcin was lower at all time points. The staining intensity and activity of ALP were higher in the EMD group than in the control group. Mineralization levels and calcium contents were significantly higher in the EMD group throughout the observation period. CONCLUSION These data suggest that combining ACS with EMD increases levels of osteoblastic differentiation and mineralization in miPS-EB-derived cells, compared with ACS used alone.

Abstract
Amelogenins are a set of low molecular-weight enamel proteins belonging to a group of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins with a key role in tooth enamel development and in other regeneration processes, such as wound healing and angiogenesis. Since only few data are actually available to unravel amelogenin mechanism of action in chronic skin healing restoration, we moved to the full characterization of the human amelogenin isoform 2 interactome in the secretome and lysate of Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial cells (HUVEC), using a functional proteomic approach. Trombospondin-1 has been identified as a novel and interesting partner of human amelogenin isoform 2 and their direct binding has been validated thought biophysical orthogonal approaches.

Abstract
Enamel matrix derivative (EMD), a decellularized porcine extracellular matrix (ECM), is used clinically in periodontal tissue regeneration. Amelogenin, EMD’s principal component, spontaneously assembles into nanospheres in vivo, forming an ECM complex that releases proteolytically cleaved peptides. However, the role of amelogenin or amelogenin peptides in mediating osteoblast response to EMD is not clear. Human MG63 osteoblast-like cells or normal human osteoblasts were treated with recombinant human amelogenin or a 5 kDa tyrosine-rich amelogenin peptide (TRAP) isolated from EMD and the effect on osteogenesis, local factor production, and apoptosis assessed. Treated MG63 cells increased alkaline phosphatase specific activity and levels of osteocalcin, osteoprotegerin, prostaglandin E2, and active/latent TGF-β1, an effect sensitive to the effector and concentration. Primary osteoblasts exhibited similar, but less robust, effects. TRAP-rich 5 kDa peptides yielded more mineralization than rhAmelogenin in osteoblasts in vitro. Both amelogenin and 5 kDa peptides protected MG63s from chelerythrine-induced apoptosis. The data suggest that the 5 kDa TRAP-rich sequence is an active amelogenin peptide that regulates osteoblast differentiation and local factor production and prevents osteoblast apoptosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Enamel matrix derivative (EMD), the active component of Emdogain®, is a viable option in the treatment of periodontal disease owing to its ability to regenerate lost tissue. It is believed to mimic odontogenesis, though the details of its functioning remain the focus of current research. OBJECTIVE The aim of this article is to review all relevant literature reporting on the composition/characterization of EMD as well as the effects of EMD, and its components amelogenin and ameloblastin, on the behavior of various cell types in vitro. In this way, insight into the underlying mechanism of regeneration will be garnered and utilized to propose a model for the molecular arrangement and functioning of EMD. METHODS A review of in vitro studies of EMD, or components of EMD, was performed using key words "enamel matrix proteins" OR "EMD" OR "Emdogain" OR "amelogenin" OR "ameloblastin" OR "sheath proteins" AND "cells." Results of this analysis, together with current knowledge on the molecular composition of EMD and the structure and regulation of its components, are then used to present a model of EMD functioning. RESULTS Characterization of the molecular composition of EMD confirmed that amelogenin proteins, including their enzymatically cleaved and alternatively spliced fragments, dominate the protein complex (>90%). A small presence of ameloblastin has also been reported. Analysis of the effects of EMD indicated that gene expression, protein production, proliferation, and differentiation of various cell types are affected and often enhanced by EMD, particularly for periodontal ligament and osteoblastic cell types. EMD also stimulated angiogenesis. In contrast, EMD had a cytostatic effect on epithelial cells. Full-length amelogenin elicited similar effects to EMD, though to a lesser extent. Both the leucine-rich amelogenin peptide and the ameloblastin peptides demonstrated osteogenic effects. A model for molecular structure and functioning of EMD involving nanosphere formation, aggregation, and dissolution is presented. CONCLUSIONS EMD elicits a regenerative response in periodontal tissues that is only partly replicated by amelogenin or ameloblastin components. A synergistic effect among the various proteins and with the cells, as well as a temporal effect, may prove important aspects of the EMD response in vivo.

Abstract
The role of regenerative periodontal therapy is the reconstitution of lost periodontal structures, ie, new formation of root cementum, periodontal ligament, and alveolar bone. The outcome of basic research has pointed to the important role of enamel matrix protein derivative (EMD) in periodontal wound healing. Histologic results from animal and human studies have shown that treatment with EMD promotes periodontal regeneration. Moreover, clinical studies have indicated that treatment with EMD positively influences periodontal wound healing in humans. The goal of this paper is to review the existing literature on EMD.

Abstract
Emdogain is a commercial product of unknown composition and is clinically used to induce periodontal regeneration. This study aims to review current knowledge of the in vitro effects of Emdogain on oral tissues and, in particular, factors related to carcinoma. A systematic approach was used to review studies from the Embase and Pubmed databases; a total of 76 studies were included. These comprised in vitro studies of the cytokines in, or regulated by, Emdogain and assays designed to study the effects of EMD on human cells in oral tissues or malignant cells. Several studies have shown that EMD regulates the proliferation, migration, adhesion, gene expression, and cytokine production of (pre-)osteoblasts, periodontal fibroblasts, and gingival fibroblasts. However, the effects of EMD on malignant oral cells are not well understood. EMD seems to have broad regulatory effects on malignant cells and on several carcinoma-related factors. Evidence suggests that patients with premalignant or malignant mucosal lesions should not be treated with EMD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of enamel matrix derivative (EMD) on the release of transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-beta1), interleukin-6 (IL-6), insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I), bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2), and osteoprotegerin (OPG) in human and mouse osteoblasts. STUDY DESIGN Human MG-63 and mouse MC3T3-E1 cells were seeded onto 6-well culture plates at an initial density of 5,000/cm(2) and grown in Dulbecco's eagle medium (DMEM) with 10% fetal bovine serum for 24 h. Then cells were cultured either with 100 microg/mL EMD added to DMEM or with DMEM only. After 2, 5, and 9 days' incubation the culture medium was collected and analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent analysis. Data were analyzed using Student t test. RESULTS The EMD treatment significantly increased the production of IL-6 and TGF-beta1 (P < .05) at all time points. The release of OPG was also increased in mouse osteoblasts (P < .05). IGF-I and BMP-2 were not detected in both control and EMD-treated groups. CONCLUSION This study suggests that the stimulatory effects of EMD on tissue regeneration are mediated by the up-regulation of local mediators released by osteoblasts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the bone-regenerative properties of Emdogain in osseous and nonosseous sites. MATERIAL AND METHODS For the orthotopic study, unloaded poly(D,L-lactic-coglycolic acid)/calcium phosphate implants, and poly(D,L-lactic-coglycolic acid)/calcium phosphate implants loaded with different concentrations (0.25, 0.50 or 0.80 mg per implant) of enamel matrix derivative (EMD), were inserted into cranial defects of 24 rats. The implantation time was 4 wk. For the ectopic study, 32 implants were placed subcutaneously. The same study period and groups as in the orthotopic study were used. Methods of evaluation consisted of descriptive histology, histomorphometry and an in vitro EMD-release study. RESULTS In the orthotopic study, new bone formation was most abundant in unloaded implants followed by 0.50-mg EMD composites. Histomorphometric measurements showed 54 +/- 15.0% bone ingrowth for unloaded implants, 19 +/- 22.5% bone ingrowth for 0.25-mg EMD composites, 40 +/- 23.6% bone ingrowth for 0.50-mg EMD composites and 26 +/- 17.6% bone ingrowth for 0.80-mg EMD composites. Light microscopic analysis of the subcutaneous sections from the ectopic study revealed no bone formation in any group after 4 wk. The in vitro release study showed 60% cumulative EMD release after 4 wk. CONCLUSION Emdogain is not osteoinductive and is not able to enhance bone healing in combination with an osteoconductive material, such as poly(D,L-lactic-coglycolic acid)/calcium phosphate cement.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Enamel matrix derivative (EMD) stimulates the production of transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta), which has been suggested to play a role in mediating the effects of EMD in periodontal tissue regeneration. Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) is a mediator of TGF-beta and promotes cell development. The interaction between EMD and CTGF is unknown. This study explored the effects of EMD on CTGF expression in human osteoblastic cells and whether the interaction is modulated by the TGF-beta signaling pathway. Also, the roles of CTGF in cell proliferation, cell cycle progression, and mineralized nodule formation of EMD-induced osteoblastic cultures were examined. METHODS Human osteoblastic cells (Saos-2) were treated with 25 to 100 microg/ml EMD with or without the addition of TGF-beta inhibitor. CTGF mRNA expression was detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), and CTGF protein levels were assayed by Western blot analysis. In addition, cell cycle progression and DNA synthesis were determined by flow cytometry and 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) incorporation following EMD treatment with or without CTGF antibody. Mineralization was examined by alizarin red staining and quantified by elution with cetylpyridinium chloride. RESULTS Western blot and RT-PCR analysis demonstrated a dose-dependent increase of CTGF expression by EMD. EMD-induced CTGF expression was reduced significantly in the presence of TGF-beta inhibitor. Cell cycle and BrdU analysis revealed an increase in cell proliferation following EMD treatment, which was due to an increase in the percentage of cells in the G2/M phase of the cell cycle. No significant effect was found when anti-CTGF antibody was added. Conversely, mineralization was inhibited significantly in EMD-treated cultures in the presence of anti-CTGF antibody. CONCLUSIONS EMD stimulates CTGF expression, and the interaction is modulated via TGF-beta in osteoblastic cells. Also, CTGF affects EMD-induced osteoblastic mineralization but not cell proliferation. To our knowledge, these results provide novel insight into EMD-CTGF interaction, two biomodifiers that have therapeutic relevance to tissue engineering and regeneration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In vitro investigations suggest that enamel matrix derivative (EMD) may affect the biologic response of periodontal-related cells, including osteoblasts and their precursors, the bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs), which could play a crucial role in the regenerative process. In this study, we investigated the effects of EMD on human BMSCs. METHODS Primary cultures of BMSCs were obtained from bone marrow samples of healthy donors. Cell proliferation and osteogenic marker expression in response to serial dilutions of EMD (12.5, 25, and 50 microg/ml) were assessed. Cell growth was measured by 3H-thymidine incorporation and type I collagen synthesis by immunoblotting. Alkaline phosphatase (AP)-specific activity in the early phase (7 days), in vitro mineralization by von Kossa staining and calcium quantification, and osteocalcin levels at prolonged times (3 weeks) also were evaluated. RESULTS EMD stimulated BMSC growth in a dose-dependent manner. When EMD 50 microg/ml was followed over time, the highest proliferative effect was evident at 24 hours (3.4-fold of the control). Type I collagen level was significantly lower than the control after a 7-day incubation with EMD 50 microg/ml. AP activity was reduced in a dose-dependent manner down to 55% of the control. Also, the extracellular matrix mineralization decreased in EMD-treated cells with respect to the control, whereas only a slight, not significant, decrease in osteocalcin levels was found. CONCLUSIONS EMD significantly increased BMSC growth and simultaneously decreased their osteogenic differentiation. The clinical efficacy of EMD in regenerating periodontal tissues can be attributed, in part, to the biologic effects exerted on the bone marrow stromal component of resident cells.

Abstract
Polyester scaffolds have been used as an alternative to autogenous tissues for the reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). They are biocompatible and encourage tissue infiltration, leading to neoligament formation. However, rupture can occur, caused by abrasion of the scaffold against the bone tunnels through which it is implanted. Good early tissue induction is therefore considered essential to protect the scaffold from this abrasion. Enamel matrix derivative (EMD) is used clinically in the treatment of periodontal disease. It is a complex mix of proteins with growth factor-like activity, which enhances periodontal ligament fibroblast attachment, proliferation, and differentiation, leading to the regeneration of periodontal bone and ligament tissues. We hypothesized that EMD might, in a similar manner, enhance tissue induction around scaffolds used in ACL reconstruction. This preliminary investigation adopted a translational approach, modelling in vitro 3 possible clinical modes of EMD administration, to ascertain the suitability of each protocol for application in an animal model or clinically. Preliminary investigations in monolayer culture indicated that EMD had a significant dose-dependent stimulatory effect (p < 0.05, n = 6) on the proliferation of bovine primary synovial cells. However, pre-treating culture plates with EMD significantly inhibited cell attachment (p < 0.01, n = 6). EMD's effects on synovial cells, seeded onto ligament scaffolds, were then investigated in several in vitro experiments modelling 3 possible modes for clinical EMD administration (pre-, intra-, and post-operative). In the pre-operative model, EMD was adsorbed onto scaffolds before the addition of cells. In the intra-operative model, EMD and cells were added simultaneously to scaffolds in the culture medium. In the post-operative model, cells were pre-seeded onto scaffolds before EMD was administered. EMD significantly inhibited cell adhesion in the pre-operative model (p < 0.05, n = 6) and had no significant benefit in the intra-operative model. In the post-operative model, the addition of EMD to previously cell-seeded scaffolds significantly increased their total deoxyribonucleic acid content (p < 0.01, n = 5). EMD's stimulative effect on cell proliferation in vitro suggests that it may accelerate scaffold colonization by cells (and in turn tissue induction) in situ. However, its inhibitory effect on synovial cell attachment in vitro implies that it may only be suited to post-operative administration.

Abstract
AIM The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of enamel matrix derivative (EMD), transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1), and a combination of both factors (EMD+TGF-beta1) on periodontal ligament (PDL) fibroblasts. MATERIAL AND METHODS Human PDL fibroblasts were obtained from three adult patients with a clinically healthy periodontium, using the explant technique. The effects of EMD, TGF-beta1, or a combination of both were analysed on PDL cell proliferation, adhesion, wound healing, and total protein synthesis, and on alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and bone-like nodule formation. RESULTS Treatment with EMD for 4, 7, and 10 days increased cell proliferation significantly compared with the negative control (p<0.05). At day 10, EMD and EMD+TGF-beta1 showed a higher cell proliferation compared with TGF-beta1 (p<0.01). Cell adhesion was significantly up-regulated by TGF-beta1 compared with EMD and EMD+TGF-beta1 (p<0.01). EMD enhanced in vitro wound healing of PDL cells compared with the other treatments. Total protein synthesis was significantly increased in PDL cells cultured with EMD compared with PDL cells treated with TGF-beta1 or EMD+TGF-beta1 (p<0.05). EMD induced ALP activity in PDL fibroblasts, which was associated with an increase of bone-like nodules. CONCLUSION These findings support the hypothesis that EMD and TGF-beta1 may play an important role in periodontal regeneration. EMD induced PDL fibroblast proliferation and migration, total protein synthesis, ALP activity, and mineralization, while TGF-beta1 increased cellular adhesion. However, the combination of both factors did not positively alter PDL fibroblast behaviour.

Abstract
Regenerative periodontal therapy aims at reconstitution of the lost periodontal structures such as new formation of root cementum, periodontal ligament and alveolar bone. Findings from basic research indicate that enamel matrix protein derivative (EMD) has a key role in periodontal wound healing. Histological results from animal and human studies have shown that treatment with EMD promotes periodontal regeneration. Moreover, clinical studies have indicated that treatment with EMD positively influences periodontal wound healing in humans. This review aims to present an overview of evidence-based clinical indications for regenerative therapy with EMD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to determine whether a premixed form of enamel matrix derivative (EMD), Emdogain-gel, has the same property as the original formula of EMD in stimulating the proliferation of osteoblasts and odontoblasts. STUDY DESIGN Osteoblast cell line (MC3T3) and odontoblast cell line (MDPC) were cultured in the 6-well culture plates and treated in 4 different groups: (1) culture medium control, (2) 100 microg/mL Emdogain-gel directly added to the culture medium, (3) culture medium with a culture plate insert, and (4) 100 microg/mL Emdogain-gel added onto a culture plate insert. The culture plate insert prevented direct contact between Emdogain-gel and the cells. After 3-day incubation, cell morphology was examined and the total cell number per well was counted. Data were analyzed using 1-way ANOVA. RESULTS Emdogain-gel significantly increased cell number of both osteoblasts and odontoblasts regardless the presence of the culture plate insert. CONCLUSION Emdogain-gel stimulates cell proliferation of odontoblasts and osteoblasts. The direct contact between Emdogain-gel and cells is not required. Heat treatment of EMD and premix with propylene glycol alginate did not change its property of releasing bioactive molecules for promoting cell proliferation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF-BB) is suggested to be a potent stimulator and a strong mitogenic agent for human periodontal ligament cells (PDL). This study aimed at assessing the effectiveness of PDGF-BB application on periodontally diseased root surfaces through attachment and growth of fibroblast cells. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifteen periodontally involved and five healthy teeth were selected, prepared from proximal surfaces and distributed into four groups (10 specimens per group): I: healthy; II: untreated diseased; III: scaling and root planning (SRP); and IV: SRP and PDGF-BB. Each group had three subdivisions (three specimens per group) which were incubated at three different time periods. The remaining specimen for each group was used to examine surface topography. Fibroblasts were pooled on root specimens and incubated. Results were evaluated by using scanning electron microscopy. Repeated cell counting was done within a representative standard area. RESULTS The best results regarding PDL cell shape and density were obtained at day 3 in all experimental groups, except the diseased group. Although SRP samples showed slightly higher results in numbers of attached fibroblasts than diseased samples, they demonstrated a similar negative effect denoting incompatible root surfaces for fibroblast attachment. SRP plus PDGF-BB and healthy samples showed a comparable positive effect, suggesting a good root surface biocompatibility. Inter-group differences showed no significant differences on day 1, but statistically significant differences were found on both day 3 and day 7 incubation periods favoring groups I and IV over groups II and III. CONCLUSIONS Platelet-derived growth factor showed a positive effect on adhesion and growth of cultured fibroblasts to periodontally diseased surfaces. Thus, PDGF-BB may have a promising role in clinical periodontics.

Abstract
Emdogain (EMD) is an enamel matrix derivative extracted from developing porcine teeth with demonstrated periodontal regenerative potential. EMD has been shown to influence a number of properties of periodontal ligament cells including proliferation, cell attachment and matrix synthesis. To date, the effect of EMD on the epithelial cell rests of Malassez (ERM) is unknown. In this study, periodontal ligament fibroblasts, ERM, alveolar bone cells and gingival fibroblasts were obtained from porcine periodontal ligament, alveolar bone and gingiva. This study investigated, in vitro, the effect of EMD at three concentrations on proliferation, cell attachment and expression of mRNA for two mineralised tissue-related proteins (osteopontin and bone sialoprotein). As for other periodontal cells, the ERM proliferative response was enhanced by EMD. Attachment assays revealed a highly significant increase for ERM and gingival fibroblasts after EMD treatment at all concentrations. This study has also shown that EMD stimulated expression of osteopontin mRNA by ERM and alveolar bone cells. The results from this study provide evidence that EMD enhanced cellular events related with proliferation, attachment and osteopontin mRNA expression by porcine periodontal cells, in a manner consistent with its role in periodontal regenerative therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Enamel matrix derivative (EMD) is a tissue regenerative agent used clinically as an adjunct to periodontal surgery. It was previously demonstrated that Porphyromonas gingivalis, a periodontal pathogen, significantly diminished the efficacy of EMD with periodontal ligament (PDL) cells through the proteolytic actions of Arg- and Lys-gingipains (Rgp and Kgp). Thus, antiproteolytic supplements are considered clinically desirable for effective periodontal regenerative therapies. In the present study, we examined apple- (AP) and hop-polyphenols to determine their ability to protect EMD-stimulated PDL cells from P. gingivalis. METHODS AP, apple condensed tannin (ACT), hop bract polyphenol (HBP), high and low molecular weight fractions of HBP (HMW-HBP and LMW-HBP), and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg) were used. PDL cells were grown on EMD-coated dishes and infected with P. gingivalis, and cellular migration and proliferation were evaluated with an in vitro assay of wound healing assay in the presence or absence of the polyphenols. RESULTS Each polyphenol significantly enhanced the viability of PDL cells infected with P. gingivalis, whereas only EGCg demonstrated cytotoxicity. Further, all polyphenols significantly inhibited Rgp activity, with AP, ACT, and HBP more effective toward Kgp. P. gingivalis markedly diminished the migration and proliferation of EMD-stimulated PDL cells, whereas the addition of AP, ACT, HBP, and HMW-HBP significantly protected the cells from bacterial cytotoxicity. In contrast, EGCg and LMW-HBP did not show protective effects. CONCLUSION These results suggest that AP, ACT, AP, HBP, and HMW-HBP protect EMD-stimulated PDL cells from P. gingivalis and may be therapeutically useful supplements for EMD therapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of enamel matrix derivative (EMD) on TNF-alpha-induced apoptosis in osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells. STUDY DESIGN MC3T3-E1 cells were cultured at an initial density of 5000/cm 2 in Dulbecco's modified eagle medium (DMEM) with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and allowed to adhere for 24 hours. Medium was then changed into DMEM with 0.5% FBS. After 16 hours, cells were treated with EMD (100 microg/mL) alone, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) (20 ng/mL) alone, transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-beta1) (10 ng/mL) alone, TNF-alpha plus TGF-beta1, or TNF-alpha plus EMD. Cells cultured with DMEM and 0.5% FBS served as control. Following 24-hour incubation, apoptosis was assessed by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase nick-end labeling (TUNEL) assay, and quantified by cell death enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). RESULTS Both TUNEL assay and cell death ELISA show that TNF-alpha induces apoptosis in MC3T3-E1 cells. TNF-alpha increases cell death by approximately 2-fold, which is attenuated by both EMD and TGF-beta1. CONCLUSION Like TGF-beta1, EMD protects osteoblasts from inflammation-induced apoptosis.

Abstract
Bioactive glasses, osteoproductive materials, have received considerable attention as bone graft substitutes in the treatment of bony defects. More recent strategies for achieving a predictable periodontal regeneration include the use of enamel matrix proteins, due to their role in the formation of bone tissue. The aim of our study is to examine the effects of these materials on the proliferation and differentiation of the mouse preosteoblastic cell line MC3T3-E1. Cells were cultured up to 28 days in contact with three types of granules: Bioglass 45S5 granules (BG), 45S5 granules coated with enamel matrix proteins (Emdogain) (BG/EMD), and a less reactive glass used as a control (60S). Phase contrast microscopic observations have shown that all substrates supported the growth of osteoblastic cells. Zones of differentiation were observed at an earlier stage in cultures of BG and BG/EMD. TEM observations revealed ultrastructural features very close to what is observed in vivo during intramembranous ossification with a direct bone apposition on the bioactive glasses. Total protein production was higher in the cultures with BG and BG/EMD. Northern Blot analysis revealed a stimulation of the transcription factor Cbfa1/Runx2 at day 13 in cultures of BG when compared to the two other cultures. Bone sialoprotein (early marker of differentiation) and osteocalcin (marker of late-stage differentiation) expression was increased in cultures with BG and BG/EMD when compared to 60S. Taken together, our findings indicate that Bioglass alone or combined with Emdogain, have the ability to support the growth of osteoblast-like cells in vitro and to promote osteoblast differentiation by stimulating the expression of major phenotypic markers. In addition, we noticed that the bioactive granules coated with Emdogain revealed significantly higher protein production than the bioactive granules alone at day 20.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Periodontal disease results in the loss of the attachment apparatus. In the last three decades, an increasing effort has been placed on seeking procedures and materials to promote the regeneration of this tissue. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the effect of enamel matrix derivative (EMD) during regenerative procedures. In addition, a meta-analysis is presented regarding the clinical results during regeneration with EMD, to gain evidence as to what can be accomplished following treatment of intrabony defects with EMD in terms of probing depth reduction, clinical attachment level gain, defect fill (using re-entry studies), and radiographic parameters. METHODS The review includes in vitro and in vivo studies as well as human case reports, clinical comparative trials, and histologic findings. In addition, a meta-analysis is presented regarding the regenerative clinical results. For this purpose, we used 28 studies-including 955 intrabony defects treated with EMD that presented baseline and final data on probing depth, clinical attachment level (CAL) gain, or bone gain-to calculate weighted mean changes in the different parameters. The selected studies were pooled from the MEDLINE database at the end of May, 2003. RESULTS The meta-analysis of intrabony defects treated with EMD resulted in a mean initial probing depth of 7.94 +/- 0.05 mm that was reduced to 3.63 +/- 0.04 mm (p = 0.000). The mean clinical attachment level changed from 9.4 +/- 0.06 mm to 5.82 +/- 0.07 mm (p = 0.000). These results were significantly better than the results obtained for either open-flap debridement (OFD) or guided tissue regeneration (GTR). In contrast, histologically, GTR is more predictable than EMD in terms of bone and cementum formation. No advantage was found for combining EMD and GTR. Xenograft, or EMD and xenograft, yielded inferior results compared with EMD alone, but a limited number of studies evaluated this issue. Promising results were noted for the combination of allograft materials and EMD. CONCLUSIONS EMD seems to be safe, was able to regenerate lost periodontal tissues in previously diseased sites based on clinical parameters, and was better than OFD or GTR. Its combination with allograft materials may be of additional benefit but still needs to be further investigated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Enamel matrix derivative (EMD) has been shown to possess a mitogenic effect to induce effective periodontal regeneration, however, it is unclear whether periodontal pathogens can modulate the effect of EMD. The present study examined the influence of Porphyromonas gingivalis on EMD-stimulated periodontal ligament (PDL) cells. METHODS P. gingivalis ATCC33277 and its mutants deficient in fimbriae (delta fimA) or gingipains (delta rgpA delta rgpB, delta kgp, and delta rgpA delta rgpB delta kgp) were employed. PDL cells were grown on EMD-coated dishes and infected with P. gingivalis wild strain or a mutant. Cell migration and proliferation were then evaluated with an in vitro wound healing assay. The expression of transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) and insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) mRNA by PDL cells was examined. Further, the degradation and phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1 and 2 (ERK1/2) as well as paxillin in infected PDL cells were estimated using Western blot analysis. RESULTS P. gingivalis ATCC33277 inhibited the migration and proliferation of PDL cells on EMD-coated dishes, and the mutants delta fimA, delta rgpA delta rgpB, and delta kgp showed the same effects. Further, each of these organisms diminished the expression of TGF-beta1 and IGF-I mRNA, as well as the phosphorylation of ERK1/2 from EMD-stimulated PDL cells. In addition, total paxillin protein was markedly degraded by both the wild-type strain and each of the mutants except for delta rgpA delta rgpB delta kgp, which showed a negligible effect in all of the assays with EMD-stimulated PDL cells. CONCLUSION These results suggest that P. gingivalis diminishes the effect of EMD on PDL cells in vitro through a cooperative action of gingipains.

Abstract
Emdogain (EMD), a formulation of Enamel Matrix Proteins (EMP), is used clinically for periodontal regeneration, where it stimulates cementum formation and promotes gingival healing. In this study, we investigated the in vitro effects of EMD on rat bone marrow stromal cells (BMSC) and gingival fibroblasts (GF). EMD (at 25 micro g/mL) increased the osteogenic capacity of bone marrow, as evidenced by approximately three-fold increase in BMSC cell number and approximately two-fold increase in alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and mineralized nodule formation. The presence of EMD in the initial stages (first 48 hrs) of the culture was crucial for this effect. In contrast, EMD did not induce osteoblastic differentiation of GF (evidenced by lack of mineralization or ALP activity) but increased up to two-fold both their number and the amount of matrix produced. These in vitro data on BMSC and GF could explain the promotive effect of EMD on bone formation and connective tissue regeneration, respectively.

Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of an enamel matrix protein derivative (EMD) on attachment, proliferation, and viability of human SaOs(2) osteoblasts on titanium implants. A total of 220 sand-blasted and acid-etched (SLA) titanium discs were placed into 24-well culture plates. Before cell inoculation, McCoy's 5A medium (MCM) containing EMD at 25 micro g/ml, 50 micro g/ml, 100 micro g/ml, and 200 micro g/ml was added, and the culture plates were incubated for 30 min. As control, MCM alone was used. Human osteoblast-like cells (SaOs(2)) (2 x 10(4) cells, fourth passage) were suspended in MCM containing 1% penicillin/streptomycin and 10% fetal bovine serum and then inoculated into the well chambers. The medium was changed after 3 days without the addition of EMD. At days 1, 3, and 6, DNA content of the cells was assessed using the CyQuant cell proliferation assay kit, and mitochondrial activity of the cells was measured using a CellTiter-Glo luminescent cell viability assay. The presence of EMD on the titanium discs at days 1 and 6 was evaluated using immunofluorescence stain (IFS) by means of polyclonal antibodies against amelogenin. Additionally, cell morphology was investigated using scanning electron microscopy. Enamel matrix derivative at 25 micro g/ml, 50 micro g/ml, 100 micro g/ml, and 200 micro g/ml demonstrated similar increases in cell proliferation as the control medium at days 3 and 6 ( P>0.05 between groups, respectively). Proliferation, however, appeared to be ameliorated with increasing EMD concentrations. At 25 micro g/ml and 50 micro g/ml, EMD also demonstrated an increase in cell viability similar to the control medium at days 3 and 6 ( P>0.05 between groups, respectively), while EMD at 100 micro g/ml and 200 micro g/ml resulted in statistically significant higher increase in cell viability than in the control medium at day 6 ( P<0.001 between groups, respectively). In all test groups, IFS at day 6 was markedly lower than at day 1. Scanning electron microscopy revealed comparable cell morphology in all groups. Within the limits of the present study, it was concluded that EMD enhanced cell proliferation and viability of human SaOs(2) osteoblasts on SLA titanium implants in a concentration-dependent manner.

Abstract
Cells within the periodontal ligament have the potential to regenerate a periodontal connective tissue attachment on pathologically exposed root surfaces as well as on several material surfaces including titanium. However, rather than a periodontal connective tissue attachment, a fibrous encapsulation or chronic inflammatory response has been reported at the material connective tissue interface for most dental materials. Cementum is the first tissue of the periodontal connective tissue attachment to develop and the secretion of enamel matrix related proteins on the newly mineralized dentin surface precedes and is thought to induce cementum formation. Enamel matrix-related proteins may also function in the adult because the application of an acid extract of porcine enamel protein matrix (Emdogain(R), EMD) on pathologically exposed root surfaces has been shown to result in cementum regeneration. Therefore, the objective of the present study was to determine whether the application of EMD to materials that do not normally support cementogenesis in vivo would alter the in vitro phenotype of periodontal ligament (PDL) cells including the synthesis of cementum-associated extracellular matrix proteins. Primary PDL cells were established from 21-day-old Sprague-Dawley rats, and were cultured on four materials commonly encountered in dental practice (gutta percha, calcium hydroxide, amalgam, and super EBA cement) with and without the application of EMD. After 7 or 14 days of culture, total-DNA content, collagen synthesis, alkaline phosphatase activity, and the synthesis of a 42-kDa cementum-associated extracellular matrix protein were determined. PDL cells cultured on all materials had decreased total DNA content. The application of EMD further decreased total DNA content. PDL cells cultured on gutta percha and calcium hydroxide with the application of EMD had similar levels of collagen synthesis and alkaline phosphatase activity but also expressed a 42-kDa cementum extracellular matrix-associated protein when compared to the other groups. These results suggest that EMD can alter the phenotype of PDL cells when cultured on these dental materials.
