Öğe Attachment, proliferation and collagen type I mRNA expression of human gingival fibroblasts on different biodegradable membranes(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2013) Hakki, Sema S.; Korkusuz, Petek; Purali, Nuhan; Bozkurt, Buket; Kus, Mahmut; Duran, IsmetThe purpose of this study was to investigate adhesion, proliferation and type I collagen (COL I) mRNA expression of gingival fibroblasts on different membranes used in periodontal applications. Collagen (C), acellular dermal matrix (ADM) and polylactic acid; polyglycolic acid; lactide/glycolide copolymer (PLGA) biodegradable membranes were combined with gingival fibroblasts in culture and incubated for 48 h. Cell adhesion was examined with scanning electron and confocal microscopy. MTT assay was used to measure proliferation. COL I mRNA expression was assessed using quantitative-polymerase chain reaction (QPCR). The PLGA group exhibited the lowest cell survival on day 5 and 10, and lowest cell proliferation on days 5, 10 and 14. While cell proliferation was similar in C and ADM groups, the C membrane showed a slightly greater increase in viable cells to day 10. Confocal and scanning electron microscopy confirmed the results of proliferation and MTT assays. The highest COL I mRNA expression was noted in the PLGA membrane group when compared to the C (p<0.01) and ADM (p<0.05) membrane groups. These data revealed that adherence and proliferation of primary gingival fibroblasts on collagen-based C and ADM membranes is better than that seen with PLGA membranes, and thus may be preferable in the treatment of gingival recession defects.Öğe Bone morphogenetic protein-2, -6, and -7 differently regulate osteogenic differentiation of human periodontal ligament stem cells(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2014) Hakki, Sema S.; Bozkurt, Buket; Hakki, Erdogan E.; Kayis, Seyit Ali; Turac, Gizem; Yilmaz, Irem; Karaoz, ErdalThe utility of adult stem cells for bone regeneration may be an attractive alternative in the treatment of extensive injury, congenital malformations, or diseases causing large bone defects. To create an environment that is supportive of bone formation, signals from molecules such as the bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are required to engineer fully viable and functional bone. We therefore determined whether BMP-2, -6, and -7 differentially regulate the (1) proliferation, (2) mineralization, and (3) mRNA expression of bone/mineralized tissue associated genes of human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs), which were obtained from periodontal ligament tissue of human impacted third molars. hPDLSCs from six participants were isolated and characterized using histochemical and immunohistochemical methods. A real-time cell analyzer was used to evaluate the effects of BMP-2, -6, and -7 on the proliferation of hPDLSCs. hPDLSCs were treated with Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium containing different concentrations of BMP-2, -6, and -7 (10, 25, 50, 100 ng/mL) and monitored for 264 hours. After dose-response experiments, 50 and 100 ng/mL concentrations of BMPs were used to measure bone/mineralized tissue-associated gene expression. Type I collagen, bone sialoprotein, osteocalcin, osteopontin, and osteoblastic transcription factor Runx2 mRNA expression of hPDLSCs treated with BMP-2, -6, and -7, were evaluated using quantitative RT-PCR. Biomineralization of hPDLSCs was assessed using von Kossa staining. This study demonstrated that BMPs at various concentrations differently regulate the proliferation, mineralization, and mRNA expression of bone/mineralized tissue associated genes in hPDLSCs. BMPs regulate hPDLSC proliferation in a time and dose-dependent manner when compared to an untreated control group. BMPs induced bone/mineralized tissue-associated gene mRNA expression and biomineralization of hPDLSCs. The most pronounced induction occurred in the BMP-6 group in the biomineralization of the hPDLSCs. Our data suggest that BMP-2, -6, and -7 are potent regulators of hPDLSC gene expression and biomineralization. Employing BMPs with hPDLSCs isolated from periodontal ligament tissues provides a promising strategy for bone tissue engineering. (c) 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Methods: Twenty-four single-rooted periodontally involved human teeth (test groups), and six healthy premolar teeth extracted for orthodontic reasons (control group) were included in this study. A total of 45 root slices were obtained from all selected teeth and assigned to the following five groups: 1) untreated healthy group (+control); 2) untreated periodontally diseased group ( control); 3) hand instrumentation group (scaled Gracey); 4) laser I, Er,Cr:YSGG laser irradiation setting-I (short pulse); and 5) laser II, Er,Cr:YSGG laser irradiation setting-II (long pulse). All of the root slices were autoclaved in phosphate buffered saline and slices were placed onto cell culture inserts. PDL fibroblasts were placed at the density of 80,000 cells on the root plate (5 x 6 mm) and incubated for 48 hours and transferred to 24-well plates. The attachment PDL fibroblasts on the root plates were observed using confocal microscopy (at 12 hours and on days 3 and 7) and scanning electron microscopy (at 12 hours and day 3). 3- (4,5-dimethyl-thiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide assay was performed on day 5 for PDL fibroblast survival. Results: 3-(4,5-dimethyl-thiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide assay shows that whereas laser-treated specimens showed a significantly higher cell density, the Gracey-treated group showed a lower cell density compared to the positive control group (P < 0.05). Based on confocal microscopy, apparent reduction was observed in the attachment of PDL cells to the periodontally diseased root surfaces. In the laser and Gracey groups, cells looked well-oriented to the root surfaces. Laser-treated groups provided suitable environment for cell adhesion and growth. Laser I treatment was more favorable for the attachment of PDL compared to scaled Gracey, laser II, and even healthy root surfaces. Conclusion: The results of the study indicate that short-pulse laser setup (laser I) looks more promising regarding the attachment, spreading, and orientation of PDL cells.Öğe Nicotine down-regulates the proliferation of the cementoblasts (OCCM. 30)(EUROPEAN PUBLISHING, 2018) Hakki, Sema; Bozkurt, Buket[Abstract not Available]
