PURPOSE. This study was to evaluate the effects of bacterial cellulose (BC) membranes as a barrier membrane on guided bone regeneration (GBR) in comparison with those of the resorbable collagen membranes. MATERIALS AND METHODS. BC membranes were fabricated using biomimetic technology. Surface properties were analyzed, Mechanical properties were measured, in vitro cell proliferation test were performed with NIH3T3 cells and in vivo study were performed with rat calvarial defect and histomorphometric analysis was done. The Mann-Whitney U test and the Wilcoxon signed rank test was used (${\alpha}<.05$). RESULTS. BC membrane showed significantly higher mechanical properties such as wet tensile strength than collagen membrane and represented a three-dimensional multilayered structure cross-linked by nano-fibers with 60 % porosity. In vitro study, cell adhesion and proliferation were observed on BC membrane. However, morphology of the cells was found to be less differentiated, and the cell proliferation rate was lower than those of the cells on collagen membrane. In vivo study, the grafted BC membrane did not induce inflammatory response, and maintained adequate space for bone regeneration. An amount of new bone formation in defect region loaded with BC membrane was significantly similar to that of collagen membrane application. CONCLUSION. BC membrane has potential to be used as a barrier membrane, and efficacy of the membrane on GBR is comparable to that of collagen membrane.

Injectable RGD-bioconjugated Mussel Adhesive Proteins (RGD-MAPs) composite hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) hydrogels provide local periodontal tissue for bone filling in periodontal surgery. Previously we developed a novel type of injectable self-supported hydrogel (2 mg/ml of RGD-MAPs/HPMC) based porcine nano hydroxyapatite (MPH) for dental graft, which could good handling property, biodegradation or biocompatibility with the hydrogel disassembly and provided efficient cell adhesion activity and no inflammatory responses. Herein, the aim of this work was to evaluate bone formation following implantation of MPH and collagen membrane in rabbit calvarial defects. Eight male New Zealand rabbits were used and four circular calvarial defects were created on each animal. Defects were filled with different graft materials: 1) collagen membrane, 2) collagen membrane with MPH, 3) collagen membrane with bovine bone hydroxyapatite (BBH), and 4) control. The animals were sacrificed after 2 and 8 weeks of healing periods for histologic analysis. Both sites receiving MPH and BBH showed statistically increased augmented volume and new bone formation (p < 0.05). However, there was no statistical difference in new bone formation between the MPH, BBH and collagen membrane group at all healing periods. Within the limits of this study, collagen membrane with MPH was an effective material for bone formation and space maintaining in rabbit calvarial defects.

여성의 폐경에 의한 estrogen의 감소는 골다공증을 유발시킨다고 알려져 있다. 최근 새로운 식품으로 각광받고 있는 도라지 추출물을 인위적 갱년기 장애를 유발시킨 흰쥐에 투여하여 혈 중 ALP활성 변화와 골 중의 collagen의 함량 및 collagen 가교물질 pyridinoline과 deoxypyridinoline 함량 변화를 측정하여 그 효과를 검토해 보았다. 도라지 추출물을 갱년기를 유도한 흰쥐에 투여하여 혈 중 ALP활성 변화에 미치는 영향을 검토한 결과 난소절제에 의하여 ALP활성이 증가하였으나, 도라지 추출물 투여한 군에서 ALP활성이 억제되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 난소 절제에 의해 연골의 collagen 함량이 감소되었는데, 이는 도라지 추출물을 투여함으로써 정상적인 수치로 증가하는 경향을 나타내어 도라지 추출물이 골 대사와 관련된 골 대사 질환에 유효한 효과를 나타낼 것으로 추측된다. 또한 collagen 가교물질로써 골대사의 biomaker인 pyridinoline 및 deoxypyridinoline의 골 중의 함량은 난소절제에 의해 감소하였고, 도라지 추출물 투여에 의해 증가하여 estrogen부족으로 인한 골 손실에 도라지 추출물이 유익한 효과를 가지는 것으로 보이며, 이는 도라지 중에 함유되어 있는 phytoestrogen에 의한 것으로 추측되어 앞으로 구체적인 검토가 필요한 것으로 사료된다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the increased bone loss caused by ovariectomy through monitoring the concentrations of the collagen and the pyridinoline crosslinks of collagen. The ovariectomized rats treated for 8 weeks, were divided at random into two or three groups of 10. Ovariectomies were carried out from the saline-treated group (Ovx), the estrogentreated group (Ovx+ES) and chondroitin sulfate-treated group (Ovx+CS). Sham operations were performed on the sham-operated group (Sham). Ovx+ES and Ovx+CS groups showed the remarkably increased collagen and pyridinoline amount in the bone and cartilage compared to Ovx group. And as the result of the measurement of SOD, Catalase and GPx which are antioxidant enzyme, SOD and Catalase activities in Ovx group were much higher than in Sham group. But they were significantly decreased in Ovx+CS group. Based on these results, it is supposed that estrogen and condroitin sulfate can enhance collagen synthesis and affect the pyridinoline formation in collagen fibrils through stimulating lysyl oxidase activity. And it is also thought that chondroitin sulfate can inhibit aging by reducing antioxidant enzyme.

Zinc is an essential trace element required for bone formation, however not much has been clarified yet for its role in osteoblast. We hypothesized that zinc would increase osteogenetic function in osteoblasts. To test this, we investigated whether zinc treatment enhances bone formation by stimulating osteoblast proliferation, bone marker protein alkaline phosphatase activity and collagen synthesis in osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells. MC3T3-E1 cells were cultured and treated with various concentrations of zinc (0, 1, 3, 15, 25 uM) along with a normal osteogenic medium (OSM) as control for 1, 5, 10 days. As measured by MTT assay for mitochondrial metabolic activity, cell proliferation was stimulated even at low zinc treatment (1-3 ${\mu}M$) compared to OSM, and it was stimulated in a zinc concentration-dependent manner during 5 and 10 days, with the most pronounced effect at 15 and 25 uM Zn. Cellular (synthesized) alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity was increased in a zinc concentration-dependent manner, so did medium (secreted) ALP activity. Cellular collagen concentration was increased by zinc as time went by, therefore with the maximum zinc stimulatory effect in 10 days, and medium collagen concentration showed the same pattern even on 1 and 5 day. This zinc stimulatory effect of collagen synthesis was observed in cell matrix collagen staining. The study results imply that zinc can increase osteogenic effect by stimulating cell proliferation, ALP activity and collagen synthesis in osteoblastic cells.

Purpose: Significant interest has emerged in the design of cell scaffolds that incorporate peptide sequences that correspond to known signaling domains in extracellular matrix and bone morphogenetic protein. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the bone regenerative effects of the synthetic peptide in a critical-size rat calvarial defect model. Methods: Eight millimeter diameter standardized, circular, transosseus defects created on the cranium of forty rats were implanted with synthetic peptide, collagen, or both synthetic peptide and collagen. No material was was implanted the control group. The healing of each group was evaluated histologically and histomorphometrically after 2- and 8-week healing intervals. Results: Surgical implantation of the synthetic peptide and collagen resulted in enhanced local bone formation at both 2 and 8 weeks compared to the control group. When the experimental groups were compared to each other, they showed a similar pattern of bone formation. The defect closure and new bone area were significantly different in synthetic peptide and collagen group at 8 weeks. Conclusions: Concerning the advantages of biomaterials, synthetic peptide can be an effective biomaterial for damaged periodontal regeneration.

The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate the acceptability of the collagen-based xenograft ($Laddec^{(R)}$). Full thickness bone defects were prepared in the calvaria of the rats. In the experimental groups the bone defects were filled with a kind of collagen based xenograft. And bone defects, which left without filling, were used as control groups. Sequential sacrifice was performed at the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 8th, and 16th weeks of experiment. 1. At the 1st week of experiment, infiltration of chronic inflammatory cell was observed in all groups. In the experimental group, resorption of the xenograft was initiated. 2. At the 2nd week of experiment, infiltration of chronic inflammatory cells was decreased in all groups. In the experimental group, active resorption of xenograft and new bone formation from the periphery of the xenograft was observed. 3. At the 4th and 8th weeks of experiment, more resorption of the xenograft and new bone formation with calcification was observed in the experimental group. 4. At the 16th week of experiment, small bone trabecula was formed partially in the control group but that couldn't fill the whole bone defect. In the experimental group, more advanced resorption of xenograft and more new bone formation was observed. However mid portion of the xenograft was still remained without resorption. 5. From this experiment, we concluded that the collagen-based xenograft had some osteoconductive but no osteoinductive property. So the xenograft would be used for the bone defect filling material where rapid bone remodeling is not required.

Tissue engineering is an emerging, innovative technology to improve or replace the biological functions of damaged tissues and organs. Scaffolds are important materials for tissue engineering as they support cell attachment, migration, and differentiation. Marine sponges naturally contain scaffolds formed by extracellular matrix proteins (collagen and sponging) and strengthened by a siliceous or calcium carbonate skeleton. Coral skeletons are also derived naturally formed by essential calcium carbonate in the form of aragonite, and are similar to human bone. In addition, collagen extracted from jellyfish is a biosafe alternative to bovine and porcine collagen and gained attention as a potential source for tissue engineering. Moreover, cuttlefish bone is an excellent calcium source and can be used to generate bio-synthetic calcium phosphate. It has become a natural candidate for biomimetic scaffolds. This review describes the use of natural products derived from marine invertebrates for applications in bone tissue engineering based on studies from 2008 to 2014.
