Calcium sulfate has a long history of medical use as an implant material. The biocompatibiliry of the material has been clearly established. Bone ingrowth concomitant with resorption occurs rapidly with efficient conduction of bone from particle to particle. Calcium sulfate also has a potential for functioning as a good bamer membrane. The purpose of this study was to compare the biocompatibility of different types of calcium sulfate grafting materials including an expelimental calcium sulfate compound on periodontal ligament cells in vitro as a preliminary test towards the development of a more convenient and useful form of grafting material which could promote regeneration of periodontal tissue. Human periodontal ligament cells were collected from the premolar teeth extracted for orthodontic treatment. cells were cultured in a.MEM culture medium containing 20% FBS, at $37^{\circ}C$ and 100% humidity, in a 5% CO2 incubator. Cells were cultured into 96 well culture plate $1{\times}104$ cells per well with $\alpha$-MEM and incubated for 24 hours. After discarding the medium, those cells were cultured in $\alpha$-MEM contained with 10% FBS alone (control group), in medcal-grade calcium sulfate(MGCS group), in plaster(plaster group), experimental calcium sulfate paste(CS paste group) for 1, 2, 3 day respectively. And then each group was characterized by examining of the cell counting, MTI assay, collagen synthesis. The results \vere as follows. 1. In the analysis of cell proliferation by cell counting, both medical-grdde calcium sulfate group and plaster group showed no stastically significant difference at day 1, 2, 3 accept for plaster group at day 1 compared to control group, but there was stastically significant difference between CS paste group and all other groups at day 1, 2, 3(P<0.05). 2. In the analysis of cytotoxicity by MIT assay, both medical-grade calcium sJlfate group and plaster group showed no stastically significant difference compared to control group at day 1, 2, 3 but there was stastically significant difference between CS paste group and all other groups at day 1, 2, 3(P<0.OS). 3. In the analysis of collagen synthesis by immunoblotting assay, high level was detected for medical-grade calcium sulfate group and plaster group at day 1, 2, 3 compared to CS paste group. On the basis of these results, medical-grade calcium sulfate and plaster was shown to possess biocompatibility whereas the CS paste had unfavourable outcome. This observation shows a need for modification of the materials contained in calcium sulfate paste.

치주조직 재생을 도모하기 위한 전통적인 시술방법으로 여러가지 골이식재를 이용한 골이식술이 이용되고 있다. 이번 실험의 목적은 골형성을 위한 재료로 Calcium Polyphosphate(CPP)를 사용하여 비글견에서의 조직 반응과 골유도성을 보는 것이고 또한 다른 이식재들간에 신생골의 형성에 어느정도 영향을 주는 가를 알아보는 것이다. 이번 실험에 사용된 CPP는 무수 $Ca(H_2PO_4)$를 condensation하여 무결정의 $Ca(PO_3)_2$를 얻고 이를 용율하고 냉각시킨 후 분쇄하여 얻은 것으로 3세된 비글견에 이식하여 관찰하였다. 조직학적으로 CPP granule의 경우는 키토산이나 $Na_2O$를 넣은 경우 모두 bone 의 ingrowth가 관찰되었고 다른 섬유조직의 개재를 볼수 없었다 동결탈회건조골을 넣은 경우에는 주위로 골형성 보이지 않았고 단지 섬유성 조직이 관찰 되었다. 아무것도 넣지 않은 경우에 비해서 동결탈회건조골이나 키토산, $Na_2O$를 넣은 CPP granules 경우에 더 많은 비율로 신생 골의 양이 나타나는 것을 볼수 있었다. 아무것도 넣지 않은 대조군과 이식재를 넣은 군간에는 유의성이 있는 것으로 나타났고(p<0.05). 또한 CPP granules with chitosan과 CPP granules with $Na_2O$ 사이에는 신생골의 형성에 유의성이 없었다. 이것으로 보아 CPP granules with chitosan과 CPP granules with $Na_2O$는 모두 골유도성이 있고 신생골의 형성을 촉진하므로 치주질환으로 인한 골결손 부위에 사용할 수 있는 재료로 우수한 특성을 지닌다고 사료된다.
