Recently, synthetic biopolymers and bioceramics such as poly (${\varepsilon}$-caprolactone)(PCL), hydroxyapatite, tricalcium phosphate, biphasic calcium phosphate(BCP), and zirconia have been used as substrates to generate various tissues or organs in tissue engineering. Thus, the purpose of this study was the characterization of $ZrO_2$/BCP/PCL(ZBP) scaffold for bone tissue regeneration. Based on the result of single-line test, blended 3D ZBP scaffolds with fully interconnected pores and new complex pore pattern of $45^{\circ}+135^{\circ}$-type and staggered-type were successfully fabricated using a polymer deposition system. Furthermore, the effect of ZBP scaffold on mechanical property was analyzed. In addition, in vitro cell interaction of ZBP scaffold on MG63 cells was evaluated using a cell counting kit-8(CCK-8) assay.

최근 골손상이 있을 경우 골 형성을 유도하고 기능을 부여하여 단순한 골조직의 대체를 위한 지지체가 아닌 한층 더 나아간 지지체의 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 뼈 형성 억제 인자를 억제하거나 촉진인자를 첨가하여 뼈의 형성이 증가시키고, 뼈 형성과정에 관여하는 신호체계를 유도하는 어떤 물질을 첨가하여 뼈의 형성을 증가시킬 수 있다. 줄기세포는 다양한 세포로 분화할 수 있는 능력이 있는데 그 과정에서 여러 가지 signal이 관여한다. 그 중 wnt signaling은 줄기 세포가 분화하는 과정뿐만 아니라 세포의 사멸, 이동에 있어서도 매우 중요한 역할을 하며, 줄기세포의 운명 결정에 영향을 미친다고 알려져 있다. Silicon은 조골세포의 부착과 증식, 세포의 활성을 증가시키며 뼈의 형성과정과 석회화 과정에서 중요한 역할을 한다. 또한 BMP-2, collagen 등과 같은 유전자의 발현을 증가시킨다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 Silicon이 조골세포로의 분화과정에 관여하는 신호전달 중 wnt 신호에 미치는 영향에 대해 유전자의 발현 양상과 단백질의 발현 양상을 살펴보기 위해 각각 RT-PCR과 western-blotting을 수행하였다.

Patients with maxillectomy defects predisposed to not only difficulty in deglutition, mastication, speech but also psychological depression from impaired facial esthetics that affect life quality. Obturator prostheses play a important role in restoring the lost form, function and the quality of life for patients with maxillectomy defects. This clinical report presents the simplified approach to predict the degree of adequate facial support by Artificial palate which reflected from a maxillary interim obturator during the stabilization period after maxillectomy.

Radiation therapy is accompanied by adverse radiation effective. In particular, it is accompanied by disorders of the vascular system. Therefore, oxygen and nutrient deficiency occurs in the regeneration area. Eventually, osteoradionecrosis is formed in this cellular environment. According to a precedent study, bone morphogenetic protein-2 is used to overcome osteoradionecrosis. The purpose of this study was to investigate the regeneration ability of osteoradionecrosis by treating bone-forming protein-2 on a fibrinogen scaffold which is a biomaterial that is frequently used for bone regeneration after irradiation of the rat head. In addition, the purpose of this study was to verify the bone regeneration effect from the eight weeks. According to the experimental results, in the calvarial defected model of the irradiated mouse, making bone-formation was obtained after 8 weeks rather than bone-formation period in the early 4 weeks. moreover, it was found that the regenerated bone formation of the fibrinogen scaffold is formed from the inside of the bone of the defect area.

Tissue engineering techniques require the use of a porous biodegradable/bioresorbable scaffold, which server as a three-dimensional template for initial cell attachment and subsequent tissue formation in both in vitro and in vivo. Small intestinal submucosa (SIS) has been investigated as a source of collagenous tissue with the potential to be used as biomaterials because of its inherent strength and biocompatibility. SIS-loaded poly(L-lactide-co-glicolide)(PLGA) scaffolds were prepared by solvent casting/particle leaching. Characterizations of SIS/PLGA scaffold were carried out by SEM, mercury porosimeter, and so on. Muscle-derived stem cells can be differentiated in culture into osteoblasts, chondrocytes, and even myoblasts by the controlling the culture environment. Cellular viability and proliferation were assayed by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazole-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium-bromide(MTT) test. Osteogenic differential cells were analyzed by alkaline phosphatase(ALP) activity. SIS/PLGA scaffolds were implanted into the back of athymic nude mouse to observe the effect of SIS on the osteoinduction compared with controlled PLGA scaffolds. Thin sections were cut from paraffin embedded tissues and histological sections were conducted hematoxylin and eosin (H&E), Trichrome, and von Kossa. We observed that bone formatioin of SIS/PLGA hybrid scaffold as natural/synthetic scaffold was better thean that of only PLGA scaffold. It canb be explained that SIS contains various kinds of bioactive molecules for osteoinduction.

The osteological development of the larvae and juveniles of Prognichthys agoo was examined on the laboratory-roared materials of 5.06-20.01 mm in mean total length(MTL). Cranium, vertebrae, caudal skeleton, siloulder girdle bone, pelvic girdle bone, pterygiophore and jaw bones were descriued in detail to examine the sequences of ossification. Ossification of the cranium took place at ca. 5.06 mm of MTL in exoccipital, basioccipital, parasphenoid. Ossification of the visceral skeleton occurred in areas where active movements of bones were required, notably in the parts for feeding and respiration. Vertebrae began to develop from the anterior end and to ossify posteriorly. Neural and haemal spines of vertebrae ossified always prior to the corresponding centra. Urostyle bone developed as an elongated bone from the early larvae and ossified prior to the centra caudal part. In jaw bones, maxillary and a part of dentary appeared first at 5.06 mm of MTL and attained a fundamental structure at 9.30 mm of MTL. Ossification of all bones was nearly completed at ca. 20.01 mm of MTL.

Prosthetic treatment using implants in fully edentulous patients includes implant-supported fixed prosthesis, implant hybrid prosthesis, implant retained- or supported-over-denture and implant supported fixed prosthesis has advantages such as psychological stability, pronunciation. If an implant supported fixed prosthesis is planned, the implants should be placed in consideration of pronunciation, esthetics, and oral hygiene. For this, clinical and radiological diagnosis is indispensable. When placing the prosthetic driven implant at the site determined from the diagnosis, a sufficient amount of alveolar bone and soft tissue support are required. If these requirements found to be insufficient, a wide range of bone grafting should be performed in advance. In this case, a fully edentulous patient with severe alveolar bone resorption due to periodontal disease was treated with a full mouth rehabilitation using implant-supported fixed prosthesis preceding maxillary sinus graft and alveolar bone augmentation. We report this patient were satisfied with esthetic and function.

인체의 뼈와 같은 손상된 경조직을 치료 또는 대체하기위한 정형외과용 임플란트를 설계하는데 있어 뼈의 생체역학적 특성과 유사한 성질을 갖는 다공성 지지체에 대한 연구가 최근 관심을 끌고 있다. 다공성 지지체는 조직이 원활히 재생될 수 있어야 하며, 또한 주변 조직과도 생물학적인 고착이 잘 되도록 기공들이 상호 연결된 구조를 가져야 한다. 이와 같은 다공성 지지체용 소재를 제조하기 위하여 본 연구에서는 타이타늄 분말을 사용하여 3차원 적층조형공정으로 다공성 타이타늄 지지체를 제조하였다. 제조된 다공체의 물성 및 기계적 특성을 평가하기 위하여 압축시험과 변형해석을 수행하였으며, 아울러 제조된 지지체의 생체적합성 향상을 위하여 양극산화 공정 등의 표면처리를 수행하여 그에 대한 특성을 평가하였다. 분말야금 공정으로 제조된 지지체는 골조직의 성장에 적합한 약 $300\sim400{\mu}m$의 기공 크기를 갖도록 제어하였고, 기공도는 60~75%로 제어하였다. 아울러 다공성 타이타늄의 생체적합성을 부여하기 위하여 양극산화공정으로 지지체의 표면에 Ca 및 P을 포함하는 산화층을 형성시키는 표면처리를 수행하였다. 양극산화공정에 의하여 표면에 미세기공을 포함하는 산화층을 형성시킬 수 있었으나 이와 같은 표면구조는 조골세포의 부착과 영향에는 큰 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 확인되었다.
