Purpose: Tetracycline and its chemically modified non-antibacterial analogues can inhibit certain host-derived tissue destructive collagenases such as matrix metalloproteinases. The purpose of this study was to evaluate clinical and microbiologic effects of the subantimicrobial dose of doxycycline(SDD) in conjunction with scaling and root planing. Materials and methods: A total of 30 patients with chronic periodontitis who were going to receive scaling and root planing were randomly allocated to receive either a doxycycline hyclate for 3 months or nothing. Clinical probing depth, clinical attachment level, gingival recession, and bleeding on probing were measured by one periodontist. After a periodontal examination, microbial samples were collected using sterile paper points. The effect of SDD in conjunction with scaling and root planing on alterations of the periodontal pathogens (Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, Tannerella forsythia, Porphyromonas gingivalis) were also assessed using l6S rRNA polymerase chain reaction. Results: During the treatment period, clinical parameters for both treatment group and control group were improved. After 3 months, reductions in probing depth and gains in clinical attachment level were significantly greater for the SDD group than control group. Microbial analysis showed that there was no alteration of the periodontal pathogens and no difference between the groups. Conclusion: This study suggested that the subantimicrobial dose of doxycycline as an adjunct therapy with scaling and root planing might be effective and safe in the management of chronic periodontitis.

모유에 존재하는 유지방구의 막을 구성하는 주된 당단백질인 하나인 lactadherin(과거에는 BA46로 일컬어짐)은 rotavirus에 의한 감염증상을 예방하는 것으로 보고되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 retrovirus vector system을 이용하여 Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) 세포에 tetracycline에 의해 발현이 제어되는 promoter 하의 lactadherin 유전자를 전이시킨 후lactadherin이 tetracycline에 의해 발현이 유도되는지의 여부를 실험하였다. 먼저 기초 실험으로 E. coli LacZ유전자를 이용하여 tetracycline에 의한 유도 여부를 조사하였다. Tet-On과 RevTRE-LacZ retrovirus를 co-infection시킨 NIH3T3 세포는 doxycycline (tetracycline 유도체)의 투여량에 비례하여 E. coli LacZ 유전자의 발현 정도가 증가하는 양상을 나타내었는데, 최대의 발현에 대한 doxycycline 농도는 1 $\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$ 이상으로 나타났다. 이 예비실험의 결과를 바탕으로 Tet-On과 RevTRE-Ltd retrovirus vector를 이용하여 사람의 lactadherin 유전자의 유도적 발현을 검정하였는데, CHO 세포에서 lactadherin 유전자의 유도적 발현을 RT-PCR 기법을 이용하여 확인하였다. 표적세포 내에서 외부에서 도입된 유전자가 지속적으로 발현될 경우 심각한 생리적 부작용을 야기시킨다는 사실을 감안할 때, 본 실험의 결과는 유전자 치료와 형질전환동물의 생산에 크게 도움이 될 것으로 예상된다.

Postantibiotic effect (PAE) is defined as the length of time that bacterial growth is suppressed following brief exposure to an antibiotic. In this study, the in vitro PAE, postantibiotic sub-MIC effect (PA SME) and sub-MIC effect (SME) of antibiotics on Treponema denticola ATCC 35405 were investigated. The PAE of doxycycline and metronidazole were 20.3 h and 25.0 h, respectively. The PA SMEs examined by addition of 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3X MICs during the postantibiotic phase of the bacteria for metronidazole were longer than those for doxycycline. In contrast, the SMEs for doxycycline were longer than those for metronidazole. The PA-SME and SME values increased as the concentration of antibiotics increased. The present study illustrates the existence of PAE, PA-SME and SME for several antibiotics against T. denticola, thereby extending the pharmacodynamic advantages of these antibiotics.

Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is frequent complications of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. In the chronic GVHD (cGVHD), the oral cavity is the most commonly affected region. The clinical manifestations include erythema, ulceration, lichenoid-hyperkeratotic change in oral mucosa, dry mouth, and limitation of mouth opening. The initial treatment strategy of oral cGVHD patients is topical corticosteroid therapy in various formulation. However, corticosteroid resistance appears in some patients. We report a case of a 25-year-old male patient with oral cGVHD, who has resistance to topical corticosteroid medication, treated with 0.03% tacrolimus ointment and low-dose doxycycline. The patient showed subjective and objective improvement without side effect.

A voltammetric analysis of doxycycline was developed using DNA immobilized onto a carbon nanotube paste electrode (PE). An anodic peak current was indicated at 0.2 V (versus Ag/AgCl) in a 0.1M $NH_4H_2PO_4$ electrolyte solution. The linear working range of the cyclic and square wave stripping voltammetry was obtained to $1-27ngL^{-1}$ with an accumulation time of 800 s. Final analytical parameters were optimized to be as follows: amplitude, 0.35 V; frequency, 500 Hz; and pH, 5.43. Here detection limit was found to be $0.45ngL^{-1}$, this result can be applied in foods systems and in the biological diagnostics

Purpose: The purpose of study was to compare glycemic control using glycated hemoglobin levels ($HbA_{1c}$) in diabetic patients with chronic generalized periodontitis (CGP) undergoing scaling and root planing (SRP) with and without systemic doxycycline. Methods: Fifty subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus ($T_2DM$) and CGP receiving antidiabetic therapy were selected for study. The selected subjects were randomly assigned to two groups (test group [TG] and control group [CG]) comprising 25 patients each. The TG received SRP followed by systemic doxycycline. The CG received treatment with SRP only. The periodontal parameters were recorded at baseline (day zero), and every 1 month for 4 months and included probing depth, clinical attachment level, plaque index, gingival index, and $HbA_{1c}$ level were recorded at baseline (day zero) and at the end of 4 months. Results: A statistically significant effect was demonstrated for the periodontal parameters for both the TG and CG. $HbA_{1c}$ values did not show a statistically significant difference in the treatment group as compared to the CG. Conclusions: The authors concluded that nonsurgical periodontal therapy improved glycemic control in patients with $T_2DM$ in both groups, but no statistical difference was observed with adjunctive systemic doxycycline therapy. A further study with a larger sample size is required.

일본뇌염바이러스(Japanese encephalitis virus, JEV)의 구조단백질 capsid (C), precursor membrane (prM/M), 및 envelop (E) 단백질의 독립적인 발현을 위한 inducible expression system을 구축하였다. 발현세포주로는 BHK-21을 사용하였으며 발현의 induction에는 tetracycline analog인 doxycycline이 사용되었다. Transfectant BHK-21/IV(vector대조구), BHK21/IC(C), BHK-21/IP (prM/M),및 BHK-21/IE는 G418과 hygromycin 존재하에 클로닝되었으며 doxycycline induction에 따른 각 유전자의 mRNA 전사를 확인하였다. 세포의 성장곡선, chromatin condensation, internucleosomal DNA fragmentation, 및 flow cytometry에 의한 DNA content profile 분석을 통해 induction에 의한 각 구조단백질의 발현이 숙주세포에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 세 transfectants 모두 세포성장이 감소하고 chromatin이 응축되었다. 그러나 DNA fragmentation 및 DNA content profile 분석에서는BHK-21/IC만이 induction에 따라 상응하여 반응하였다. 이상의 결과는 JEV 감염에 의한 apoptotic 세포사멸 유도기전에서 capsid 단백질이 직접적이고 독립적인 영향요인이 될 수 있음을 제시한다.

Periodontal disease is a complex infectious disease caused by bacteria in the oral mucosa, which results in gingival inflammation, breakdown of periodontal tissues, bone resorption, and finally tooth loss. Mechanical plaque control methods-scaling and root planing are effective methods to stop the progression of such periodontal disease. It was reported that subantimicrobial dose of doxycycline(SDD) regimen could improve clinical conditions of periodontal tissues without causing the overgrowth of opportunistic organisms that was a typical antibiotic side effect. Therefore pharmacological therapy, used in conjunction with mechanical therapy could be considered a useful treatment modality in the treatment of chronic periodontal disease. In this study, 30 patients diagnosed as moderate to advanced chronic periodontitis were divided into 2 groups. In this double-blind, placebo-controlled study, the patients were administered 20mg doxycycline capsule or placebo capsule b.i.d. for 4months, after scaling and root planing. Clinical parameters-bleeding on probing, pocket depth and clinical attachment level were compared and evaluated between these groups at periods of first visit, 1 month, 2 months, 3 months, 4 months. The results were as follows ; 1. In case of moderate periodontitis, pocket depth showed significant reduction after treatment in both the control & experiment groups, when compared with the baseline values(p<0.01), but in case of advanced periodontitis, only the experiment group showed significant reduction after treatment when compared with the baseline values(p<0.05). Statistically significant reduction in pocket depth was observed in the experiment group compared to the control group(p<0.05). 2. In case of moderate periodontitis, clinical attachment level showed significant reduction after treatment in both the control & experiment groups, when compared with the baseline values(p<0.01), but in case of advanced periodontitis, only the experiment group showed significant reduction after treatment when compared with the baseline values(p<0.05). Statistically significant reduction in clinical attachment level was observed in the experiment group compared to the control group(p<0.05). 3. Bleeding on probing improved after treatment in both the groups. In case of moderate periodontitis, the experiment group showed statistically significant reduction of bleeding on probing when compared with the control group at 1 and 4 months after treatment(p<0.05). In case of advanced periodontitis, treatment resulted in statistically significant reduction of bleeding on probing in both the groups(p<0.05). These results indicate that the use of subantimicrobial dose of doxycycline is a useful supplement to mechanical treatment for periodontal patients in ameliorating the clinical parameters such as periodontal pocket, attachment level, and bleeding on probing.
