Purpose: The development of a microvascularization is important for the homeostasis of normal bone. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is one of the most important factors in vessel formation. The purpose of this study was to examine VEGF-related autocrine growth in periosteal-derived cells. Materials and methods: Periosteal-derived cells were obtained from mandibular periosteums and introduced into the cell culture. After passage 3, the periosteal-derived cells were further cultured for 21 days in an osteogenic inductive culture medium containing dexamethasone, ascorbic acid, and $\beta$-glycerophosphate. Results: The expression of four VEGF isoforms and VEGFRs was observed in periosteal-derived cells. Treatment with cultures with VEGFR-1 and VEGFR-2 Kinase Inhibitor inhibited osteoblastic differentiation and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity of periosteal-derived cells. In addition, exogenous VEGF treatment increased calcium content in the periosteal-derived cells. Conclusion: These results suggest that VEGF might act as an autocrine growth molecule during osteoblastic differentiation of cultured human periosteal-derived cells.

The present study aimed to investigate the osteogenic potentials of differentiated osteoblast-like cells (DOCs) induced from bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) on ${\beta}-tricalcium$ phosphate (${\beta}-TCP$) with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein (rhBMP-2) in vitro. Osteoblast differentiation was induced in confluent cultures by adding 100 nM dexamethasone, 10 mM ${\beta}$-glycerophosphate, 50 mM L-ascorbic acid. The Alizarin red S staining and reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) were perfomed to examine the mRNA expression of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), bone sialoprotein (BSP), osteocalcin (OCN), receptor activator for nuclear factor ${\kappa}B$ ligand (RANKL), runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2), collagen-Ⅰ (COL-Ⅰ). There were no significant differences in the osteogenic potentials of DOCs induced from MSCs on ${\beta}-TCP(+/-)$. According to the incubation period, there were significant increasing of Alizadin red S staining in the induction 3 weeks. The mRNA expression of ALP, RUNX2, and RANKL were higher in DOCs/${\beta}-TCP(-)$ than DOCs/${\beta}-TCP(+)$. According to rhBMP-2 concentrations, the mRNA expression of BSP was significantly increased in DOCs/${\beta}-TCP(+)$ compared to that of DOCs/${\beta}-TCP(-)$ on rhBMP 10 ng/ml. Our study presented the ${\beta}-TCP$ will have the possibility that calcium phosphate directly affect the osteoblastic differentiation of the bone marrowderived MSCs.

Nicotine of tobacco component has a controversial impact in the clinical outcome of dental implants. Although numerous nicotine effects on bone healing around implants have been presented, it is rarely reported in vitro study about normal human osteoblast(NHost) from oral and maxillofacial area at the surface of implants. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effect of nicotine on the proliferation and differentiation response of NHost to plasmatic and salivary levels of nicotine reported in smokers at the surface of screw-type plasma-sprayed titanium implants. NHosts were seeded on the surface of titanium implants and cultured for 21 days in ${\alpha}-MEM$ supplemented with 10% FBS, 50mg/ml ascorbic acid, 5mM ${\beta}$-glycerophosphate and 100nM dexamethasone. Seeded implants were exposed to various nicotine concentration(0.05-0.5mg/ml) from 1 to 21 days, and characterized for cell morphology, proliferation, differentiation, alkaline phosphatase(ALP) activity and ionized calcium concentration(Cai) of medium. Continuous exposure to higher nicotine concentration(above 0.3mg/ml) induced a dose- and time-dependent vacuolation of the cytoplasm, and a tendency to detach from the implant surface. 0.05mg/ml(lower nicotine concentration) did not cause significant effects in the cell proliferation and ALP activity. 0.1-0.2mg/ml caused evident dose-dependent effects in increased cell proliferation, ALP activity and earlier onset of matrix mineralization at levels up to 0.2mg/ml, while a dose-dependent inhibitory effect at 0.3-0.5mg/ml. Cai concentration of control group was decreased at 14 days. Increased Cai concentration at 0.1-0.2mg/ml, decreased Cai concentration at 0.3mg/ml and no change at 0.5mg/ml during the culture period were seen. It suggested that nicotine concentration could paly an role in modulating NHost activity as a contributing factor associated with proliferation and differentiation of NHost at the surface of implants.
