Abstract

Dental pulp cells are assumed to possess the capacity to elaborate both bone and dentin matrix under the pathological conditions following tooth injury. The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) on various gene expression regarding dentinogenesis and cell viability assay in cultured primary human dental pulp cells. The author also examined the effects of this material on cellular alkaline phosphatase activity as a potential indicator of dentinogenesis. For gene expression on MTA, reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction was performed using primer sets of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, type I collagen, alkaline phosphatase(ALP), osteonectin, and dentin sialoprotein after 2 and 4 days. Cell viability assay showed that the proportion of MTA-treated pulp cells which had been exposed for 5 days to MTA was higher than that of the control cells. Among the genes investigated in this study, ALP and osteonectin(SPARC) were increased in MTA treated group than in control. These findings suggest that this dental pulp culture system may be useful in the future as a model for studying the mechanisms underlying dentin regeneration after the treatment with MTA. Exposure to MTA material would not induce cytotoxic response in the dental pulp cells. In addition, MTA could influence the behavior of human pulp cells by increasing the ALP activity and SPARC synthesis.

치아 치수 세포는 치아 손상에 따르는 병리적인 상황에서 골과 상아질 기질을 형성하는 능력을 가진 것으로 생각된다. 본 연구에서는 MTA가 사람 치수세포의 성장에 미치는 영향과 상아질 형성에 관여하는 유전자의 발현을 유도하는지를 알아보고자 하였다. 또한 상아질 형성의 잠재적 지표인 alkaline phosphatase(ALP) activity에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 유전자 발현 검사를 위해 glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, type I collagen, alkaline phosphatase, osteonectin(SPARC), and dentin sialoprotein primer set을 이용하여 MTA 처리 2일과 4일 후 reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)을 시행하였다. cell viability assay(세포 생존력 측정) 에서 5일간 MTA에 노출된 치수 세포의 비율이 대조군보다 높았다. 대조군에 비해 MTA를 처리한 군에서 ALP와 SPARC가 증가되었다. 이상의 결과를 종합하여 보면, 이 연구에 사용한 dental pulp culture system은 MTA를 포함한 치과재료의 처리 후 치수세포의 성장과 분화 그리고 상아질 형성 유도 기전을 연구하는 데 유용한 모델로 사용할 수 있다. MTA 처리는 사람 치수세포에 세포독성을 유도하지 않으며, ALP 활성도와 유전자 발현 그리고 osteonectin (SPARC) 유전자 발현을 증가시켜 수복상아질을 형성할 것으로 사료된다.
