The purpose of this study was to observe the effect of dexamethasone and osteogenic protein-1(BMP-7) on bone, cementum and periodontal tissue regeneration. A total of 60 Sprague-Dawley white female mice were selected and beta-APN was used for five days to extract the maxillary first molar a traumatically. After the extraction of the teeth, the mesiobuccal root canal was filled with Caviton$^{\circledR}$. The teeth were etched with citric acid for 1 min and coated with one of four different experimental solutions : DEX(500nM/ml), DEX(1000nM/ml), OP-1(100$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml) and OP-1(500$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml) for three minutes depending on the group. All teeth were then replanted under microscope. All replantation procedures were done within 30 minutes. Teeth that were replanted after 30 minutes of bench dry only was used as positive control. All animals were sacrificed at 3 weeks following replantation and histologic observtion was done. The results were as follows ; 1. Active root resorption rate was decreased by the order of OP-1(500$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml), DEX(1000nM/ml), OP-1(100$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml), and DEX(500nM/ml). There was statistically less root resorption in OP-1 (500$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml) and DEX(1000nM/ml) group(P<0.05). 2. The group with higher concentration of dexamethasone(1000nM/ml) had statistically more bone union compared to positive control group(P<0.05),but there were no significant differences among four experimental groups. 3. OP-1(500$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml) and DEX(1000nM/ml) groups showed less degree of inflammation compared to the OP-1(100$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml). DEX(500nM/ml), and positive control group (P<0.05). In conclusion, the group with higher concentration of OP-1 had the best results on root resorption, bone ankylosis and anti-inflammatory effects compared to the other experimental groups, but a long-term study is also necessary to evaluate the exact pharmacological effects of the drugs in the future.

표피는 각질형성세포의 분화로부터 재생되어 계층화되는 상피 조직으로서 물리적 장벽을 형성함으로써 다양한 외부 오염원으로부터 개체를 보호한다. 자가포식 작용(autophagy)은 단백질 축적물, 손상된 세포 소기관, 세포내 미생물 등이 리소좀으로 운반되고 분해되도록 매개하는 기작이다. 최근 연구 결과에 의하면 자가포식 작용이 각질형성세포의 대사 기관과 핵을 제거하여 각질층으로 최종 분화하는데 중요한 역할을 하는 것이 보고 되었다. 그러나 자가포식 작용을 촉진함으로써 표피 분화를 유도할 수 있는지는 알려져 있지 않다. 본 연구에서는 천연물 유래 단일 화합물 라이브러리를 스크리닝하여 베타인(betaine)이 인간 각질형성세포주인 HaCaT 세포에서 세포질 내 LC3 punctate 소포체 및 LC3-I에서 LC3-II로의 변환을 증가시켜 자가포식 작용을 촉진함을 규명했다. 자가포식 작용의 억제 신호인 mTOR 경로는 베타인에 의해 영향을 받지 않았으므로, 베타인에 의해 유도된 자가포식 작용은 mTOR에 독립적임을 알 수 있었다. 베타인에 의해 촉진되는 자가포식 작용은 primary keratinocyte 및 skin equivalent에서도 관찰되었다. 또한, 베타인 처리된 인공피부에서 표피층 두께가 증가함을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과들로부터, 자가포식 작용의 새로운 조절소재로서 베타인이 표피의 턴오버를 촉진하여 표피의 장벽기능을 개선하고 피부노화를 방지할 수 있음을 시사한다.

Although the main purpose of periodontal treatment to regenerate is the complete regeneration of periodontal tissue due to periodontal disease, most of the treatment cannot meet such purpose because healing by long epithelial junction. Therefore, diverse materials of resorbable and non-resorbable have been used to regenerate the periodontal tissue. Due to high risk of exposure and necessity of secondary surgical procedure when using non-resorbable membrane, guided tissue regeneration using the resorbable membrane has gain popularity, recently. However, present resorbable membrane has the disadvantage of not having sufficient time to regenerate date to the difference of resorption rate according to surgical site. Meanwhile, other than the structure stability and facile manipulation, acellular dermal matrix has been reported to be a possible scaffold for cellular proliferation due to rapid revascularization and favorable physical properties for cellular attachment and proliferation. The purpose of this study is to estimate the influence of acellular dermal matrix on periodontal ligament, cementum and alveolar bone when acellular dermal matrix is implanted to 1-wall alveolar bone defect. 4 dogs of 12 to 16 month old irrelevant to sex , which below 15Kg of body weight, has been used in this study. ADM has been used for the material of guided tissue regeneration. The 3rd premolar of the lower jaw was extracted bilaterally and awaited for self-healing. subsequently buccal and lingual flap was elevated to form one wall intrabony defect with the depth and width of 4mm on the distal surface of 2nd premolar and the mesial surface of 4th premolar. After the removal of periodontal ligament by root planing. notch was formed on the basal position. Following the root surface treatment, while the control group had the flap sutured without any treatment on surgically induced intrabony defect. Following the root surface treatment, the flap of intrabony defect was sutured with the ADM inserted while the control group sutured without any insertion. The histologic specimen was observed after 4 and 8 weeks of treatment. The control group was partially regenerated by periodontal ligament, new cementum and new alveolar bone. the level of regeneration is not reached on the previous formed notch. but, experimental group was fully regenerated by functionally oriented periodontal ligament fiber. new cementum and new alveolar bone. In conclusion, we think that ADM seems to be used by scaffold for periodontal ligament cells and the matrix is expected to use on guided tissue regeneration.

The aim of our study is to achieve complete periodontal tissue regeneration by the application of BMP and resorbable membrane. Three beagle dogs aged over one and half years and weighed 14 to 16 kg were used in this study. Mandibular 1st, 2nd premolars were extracted bilaterally. Horizontal furcation defects were induced around 3rd, 4th premolars bilaterally. BMP-4 were applied in the right side with resorbable membranes and only resorbable membranes were applied in the left side respectively. Each animal was sacrificed at 2, 4, and 8weeks, after regenerative surgery. Specimens were prepared with Hematoxylin-Eosin stain and Goldner's modified Masson Trichrome stain for light microscopic evaluation. The results were as follows: 1. At 2 weeks after regenerative surgery, downgrowth of junctional epithelium was observed both in the membraneapplied site and BMP-4-and-membrane-applied site. 2. At 4 weeks after regenerative surgery, resorbable membranes were completely resolved, therefore would not prevent downgrowth of junctional epithelium. New bone formation, new cementum formation and Sharpey's fiber were observed in BMP-4-andmembrane-applied site. 3. At 8 weeks after regenerative surgery, downgrowth of junctional epithelium was observed in the membrane-applied site. But, new cementum formation was observed in the same site. The extensive regeneration of new bone, new cementum and remarkable formation of Shapey's fiber were showed in BMP-4-and-membrane-applied site. 4. Resorbable membranes were resolved via the cell-mediated processes. 5. Periodontal tissue regeneration were better achieved in the BMP-4-andmembrane-applied site than in the membrane-applied site. Within the above results, BMP-4 may have the strong capability to form the new bone and resorbable membrane may be able to prevent the bony ankylosis. However, resolution rate of resorbable membrane may not be enough to protect rapid epithelial downgrowth for ideal periodontal regeneration. In conclusion, I suggest BMP-4 may have the strong possibility to be utilized in the clinical periodontal treat-

Chitosan has been widely researched as bone substitution materials and membranes in orthopedic/periodontal applications. Chitosan nanofiber membrane was fabricated by chitosan nanofiber using electrospinning technique. The structure of the membrane is nonwoven, three-dimensional, porous, and nanoscale fiber-based matrix. The aim of this study was to evaluate the biocompatibility of chitosan nanofiber membrane and to evaluate its capacity of bone regeneration in rabbit calvarial defect. Ten mm diameter round cranial defects were made and covered by 2 kinds of membranes (Gore-Tex membrane, chitosan nanofiber membrane) in rabbits. Animals were sacrificed at 4 weeks after surgery. Decalcified specimens were prepared and observed by microscope. Chitosan nanofiber membrane maintained its shape and space at 4 weeks. No inflammatory cells were seen on the surface of the membrane. In calvarial defects, new bone bridges were formed at all defect areas and fused to original old bone. No distortion and resorption was observed in the grafted chitosan nanofiber membrane. However bone bridge formation and new bone formation at the center of the defect could not be seen in Gore-Tex membranes. It is concluded that the novel membrane made of chitosan nanofiber by electrospinning technique may be used as a possible tool for guided bone regeneration.

Purpose: Recombining bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) is usually acquiredfrom high level animals. Though this method is effective, its high cost limits its use. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of bone morphogenetic protein-2 with protein transduction domain (BMP-2/PTD;TATBMP-2) on bone regeneration. Rat calvarial defect model and osteoblastic differentiation model using MC3T3 cell were used for the purpose of the study. Materials and Methods: MC3T3 cells were cultured until they reached a confluence stage. The cells were treated with 0, 0.1, 1, 10, 100, 500 ng/ml of BMP-2/PTD for 21 days and at the end of the treatment, osteoblastic differentiation was evaluated usingvon Kossa staining. An 8mm, calvarial, critical-size osteotomy defect was created in each of 48 male Spraque-Dawley rats (weight $250{\sim}300\;g$). Three groups of 16 animals each received either BMP-2/PTD (0.05mg/ml) in a collagen carrier, collagen only, or negative surgical control. And each group was divided into 2 and 8 weeks healing intervals. The groups were evaluated by histologic analysis(8 animals/group/healing intervals) Result: In osteoblastic differentiation evaluation test, a stimulatory effect of BMP-2/PTD was observed in 10ng/ml of BMP-2/PTD with no observation of dose-dependent manner. The BMP-2/PTD group showed enhanced local bone formation in the rat calvarial defect at 2 weeks. New bone was observed at the defect margin and central area of the defect. However, new bone formation was observed only in 50% of animals used for 2weeks. In addition, there was no new bone formation observed at 8 weeks. Conclusion: The results of the present study indicated that BMP-2/PTD(TATBMP-2) have an positive effect on the bone formation in vitro and in vivo. However, further study should be conducted for the reproducibility of the outcomes.

Purpose: Delayed intentional replantation was introduced as a new alternative to treat the teeth with severe periodontal involvement. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the possibility of delayed intentional replantation and establish theoretical backgrounds. Materials and Methods: Studies were performed into the following two subjects; (1)Clinical evaluation of patients who underwent delayed intentional replantation using clinical and radiographic data. Severe periodontitis involved teeth were carefully extracted and proper time for delayed replantation was evaluated by analyzing inflammation markers (IL-6, TNF-${\alpha}$). (2) Theoretical studies for efficacy of delayed intentional replantation using (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) for preservation of periodontal ligament cells on root surface by minimizing inflammation and treatment of inflammatory extraction sockets. Results: Meaningful success ratio and survival rate were found in delayed intentional replantation showing reduced bone loss and maintained bone level. Additionally, viability of EGCG applied periodontal ligament cells was much higher than control group. Also, EGCG promoted healing of inflammatory extraction sockets by inhibiting inflammatory cell proliferation. Conclusion: Within the limitations of this study, 1-2 weeks after extraction is an appropriate time to do delayed intentional replantation. Also, EGCG provides helpful effects on viability of periodontal ligament cells and periodontium.

본 실험은 흡연이 치주인대세포의 기능에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위해 담배 부산물 중 하나인 니코틴이 지주인대세포의 부착과 성장 및 세포의 가역성에 미치는 영향을 관찰하였다. 니코틴이 치주인대세포의 부착에 미치는 영향을 관찰하기 위하여 치주인대세포에 니코틴을 투여한 후 1, 3, 6, 12, 24시간째 trypan blue 염색 후 부착된 세포수의 측정과 H&E stain후 형태학적 관찰을 하였고 니코틴이 치주인대세포의 성장에 미치는 영향을 관찰하기 위하여 치주인대세포에 니코틴을 투여한 후 1, 4, 7, 11, 14일째 trypan blue 염색 후 증식된 세포수의 측정과 H&E stain후 형태학적 관찰을 하였다. 또 니코틴의 세포독성효과의 가역성 평가를 위하여 니코틴을 투여하고 1, 4, 7, 11일째 니코틴이 없는 새로운 배지로 갈아주어 2일 더 배양한 후 trypan blue로 염색하여 세포수를 측정, 비교하였고 H&E 염색 후 형태학적 관찰을 하였다. 실험결과 니코틴 농도가 증가함에 따라 치주인대세포의 부착율은 감소되었고 24시간 배양 후 2mg/ml, 0.5mg/ml, 0.1mg/ml니코틴 투여군에서 통계학적으로 유의성 있는 부착억제가 관찰되었고(P<0.01) 형태학적 관찰결과 2mg/ml, 0.5mg/ml 니코틴 투여군에서는 대조해서 관찰되는 세포질의 확장이 관찰되지 않았다. 니코틴이 치주인대세포의 증식에 미치는 효과를 살펴본 결과 2mg/ml, 0.5mg/ml, 0.1mg/ml 니코틴 투여군에서 증식억제가 관찰되었고(P<0.01) 0.005mg/ml이하의 니코틴 투여군에서는 아무런 변화도 관찰되지 않았다. 14일 배양 후 형태학적 관찰결과 0.1mg/ml 니코틴 투여군에서 세포질내 공포를 관찰할 수 있었고 2mg/ml, 0.5mg/ml 니코틴 투여군에서는 세포의 괴사가 나타났다. 니코틴의 세포독성효과의 가역성평가결과 2mg/ml이상의 니코틴은 세포에 비가역적인 손상을 일으키며 0.5mg/ml, 0.1mg/ml 니코틴에 의한 세포독성은 초기에는 가역적이나 장기간 세포에 노출시키면 비가역적인 손상을 야기하는 것으로 나타났다.(P<0.05) 본 실험결과 담배의 구성성분 중 니코틴은 농도 의존적으로 치주인대세포의 부착과 증식에 영향을 주었고 니코틴의 치주인대세포에 대한 독성효과는 농도가 증가할수록, 시간이 지닐수록 비가역적으로 나타났다. 따라서 흡연은 치주조직재생에 영향을 미칠 것으로 생각되며 흡연의 기간과 정도가 치주질환의 심도 및 치주치료 후 불량한 치유반응과 관계가 있을 것으로 사료된다.
