PURPOSE. This study was performed to investigate the ability of recombinant human-bone morphogenic protein-2 immobilized on a heparin-grafted bone substrate to enhance the osteoblastic functions. MATERIALS AND METHODS. The Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$, not coated with any material, was used as a control group. In rhBMP-2-Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$ group, rhBMP-2 was coated with Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$ using only deep and dry methods (50 ng/mL, 24 h). In heparinized rhBMP-2-Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$ group, dopamine was anchored to the surface of Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$, and coated with heparin. rhBMP-2 was immobilized onto the heparinized- Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$ surface. The release kinetics of the rhBMP-2-Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$ and heparinized rhBMP-2-Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$ were analyzed using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The biological activities of the MG63 cells on the three groups were investigated via cytotoxicity assay, cell proliferation assay, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) measurement, and calcium deposition determination. Statistical comparisons were carried out by one-way ANOVA test. Differences were considered statistically significant at $^*$P<.05 and $^{**}$P<.001. RESULTS. The heparinized rhBMP-2-Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$ showed more sustained release compared to the rhBMP-2-Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$ over an extended time. In the measurement of the ALP activity, the heparinized group showed a significantly higher ALP activity when compared with the non-heparinized groups (P<.05). The MG63 cells cultivated in the group with rhBMP-2 showed increased calcium deposition, and the MG63 cells from the heparinized group increased more than those that were cultivated in the non-heparinized groups. CONCLUSION. Heparin increased the rhBMP-2 release amount and made sustained release possible, and heparinized Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$ with rhBMP-2 successfully improved the osteoblastic functions.

혈소판 농축 혈장은 구강과 안면부 재건수술에 새로이 사용되는 유용한 첨가물이다. 혈소판은 상처 치유과정에서 매우 중요하며, 혈소판은 상처부위에 빠르게 도달하여 응고를 형성한다. 그리고 다양한 성장인자를 분비한다. 이러한 성장인자는 골의 형성과 혈관의 증가, 골 이식재의 치유에 관여하는 것으로 생각된다. 본 연구의 목적은 실험 동물을 통하여 혈소판 농축 혈장에 함유된 혈소판의 정량화를 통한 성장인자 함유량을 추정하고, 방사선학적, 조직학적 평가를 통해 혈소판 농축 혈장이 초기의 골형성에 미치는 영향에 대한 평가를 하는데 있다. 15마리의 가토 두개골에 6mm trephine bur(외경 8mm)를 이용하여 경뇌막의 손상을 주지 않도록 하면서 4개의 결손부를 형성하였다. 각각의 두개골 결손부는 $Bio-Oss^{(R)}$만 이식한 군, PRP만 이식한 군, PRP와 $Bio-Oss^{(R)}$를 혼합하여 이식한군, 그리고 아무것도 이식하지 않은 군을 대조군으로 설정하였다. 각각의 재료를 이식한 후 비흡수성 차폐막($Tefgen^{(R)}$)을 위치시키고 흡수성 봉합사로 일차봉합을 시행하였다. 각 군 당 술 후 1, 2, 4주의 치유기간을 설정하였다. 동물을 희생시키고 두개골을 절제하였다. 먼저 방사선학적인 골 밀도 측정을 시행하고, 조직학적 평가를 위해 통법에 따라 조직 표본을 제작한 후 광학현미경으로 관찰하였다. 또한 가토 귀 변연정맥에서 채취한 10 ml의 혈액을 원심분리하여 혈소판 함유량을 평가하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 혈소판 농축 혈장은 일반 혈액에 비해 약 4.02배 많은 수의 혈소판이 함유되어 있었다. 2. 방사선적인 평가에서 1, 2, 4주 사이에 대조군과 비교하여 $Bio-Oss^{(R)}$에 PRP를 이식한 군에서 골의 밀도는 큰 차이를 보이고 있다(p<0.01). 하지만, 동일한 시기에 PRP만 이식한 군과 대조군의 차이는 발견할 수 없었으며 (p>0.05), $Bio-Oss^{(R)}$만 이식한 군과 $Bio-Oss^{(R)}$에 PRP를 이식한 군의 차이 또한 발견할 수 없었다(p>0.05). 3. 조직학적 평가에서 모든 이식재는 시간이 경과할수록 골 형성이 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 대조군에 비해 PRP만 이식한 군에서 더 두꺼운 섬유성 결합을 보이고 있다. 대조군과 PRP만 이식한 군과 비교해 $Bio-Oss^{(R)}$와 $Bio-Oss^{(R)}$에 PRP를 혼합 이식한 군에서 골의 형성이 더 진행됨을 알 수 있었다. $Bio-Oss^{(R)}$에 PRP를 혼합 이식한 군이 $Bio-Oss^{(R)}$만 이식한 군에서보다 더 많은 신생골 형성을 관찰할 수 있다. 이상의 결과에서 가토의 두개골 결손부에 $Bio-Oss^{(R)}$에 PRP를 혼합 이식하였을 경우 결손부의 초기 골 형성을 촉진 할 수 있음을 시사하였다.

Statement of problem: In cases where bony defects were present, guided bone regenerations have been performed to aid the placement of implants. Nowadays, the accepted concept is to isolate bone from soft tissue by using barrier membranes to allow room for generation of new bone. Nonresorbable membranes have been used extensively since the 1980's. However, this material has exhibited major shortcomings. To overcome these faults, efforts were made to develop resorbable membranes. Guided bone regenerations utilizing resorbable membranes were tried by a number of clinicians. $Bio-Gide^{(R)}$ is such a bioresorbable collagen that is easy to use and has shown fine clinical results. Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the histological results of guided bone regenerations performed using resorbable collagen membrane($Bio-Gide^{(R)}$) with autogenous bone, bovine drived xenograft and combination of the two. Surface morphology and chemical composition was analyzed to understand the physical and chemical characteristics of bioresorbable collagen membrane and their effects on guided bone regeneration. Material and methods: Bioresorbable collagen membrane ($Bio-Gide^{(R)}$), Xenograft Bone(Bio-Oss), Two healthy, adult mongrel dogs were used. Results : 1. Bioresorbable collagen membrane is pure collagen containing large amounts of Glysine, Alanine, Proline and Hydroxyproline. 2. Bioresorbable collagen membrane is a membrane with collagen fibers arranged more loosely and porously compared to the inner surface of canine mucosa: This allows for easier attachment by bone-forming cells. Blood can seep into these spaces between fibers and form clots that help stabilize the membrane. The result is improved healing. 3. Bioresorbable collagen membrane has a bilayered structure: The side to come in contact with soft tissue is smooth and compact. This prevents soft tissue penetration into bony defects. As the side in contact with bone is rough and porous, it serves as a stabilizing structure for bone regeneration by allowing attachment of bone-forming cells. 4. Regardless of whether a membrane had been used or not, the group with autogenous bone and $Bio-Oss^{(R)}$ filling showed the greatest amount of bone fill inside a hole, followed by the group with autogenous bone filling, the group with blood and the group with $Bio-Oss^{(R)}$ Filling in order. 5. When a membrane was inserted, regardless of the type of bone substitute used, a lesser amount of resorption occurred compared to when a membrane was not inserted. 6. The border between bone substitute and surrounding bone was the most indistinct with the group with autogenous bone filling, followed by the group with autogenous bone and $Bio-Oss^{(R)}$ filling, the group with blood, and the group with $Bio-Oss^{(R)}$ filling. 7. Three months after surgery, $Bio-Gide^{(R)}$ and $Bio-Oss^{(R)}$ were distinguishable. Conclusion: The best results were obtained with the group with autogenous bone and $Bio-Oss^{(R)}$ filling used in conjunction with a membrane.

Objective : To report eruption of maxillary canine through Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$ graft in patients with secondary bone-grafted alveolar clefts. Methods : Secondary alveolar bone grafts placed in the cleft alveolar defect have been shown to support dental eruption through the graft and may further affect the prevalence of impacted teeth. As the case may be, it could be difficult to do secondary alveolar bone graft with autologous bone. In particular, few reports have been shown the secondary bone graft with heterogenous bone(Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$). In this report, the eruption of canine into bone-grafted alveolar clefts was recorded as panoramic, occlusal radiographs, in 3 patients grafted with Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$ Results : Like autologous bone graft, the canine was erupted and developed into the cleft alveolar defect through Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$ graft. Conclusion : In some cases that autologous bone graft is not available, we can consider heterogenous bone graft into the cleft alveolar defect for dental development and eruption of impacted teeth.

Maxillary sinus lift and bone graft are used to reconstruct atrophic maxilla molar area for endosseous dental implants. Many different grafting materials and techniques can be used for maxillary sinus bone graft. Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$ has been proposed as bone substitute and successfully utilized as osteoconductive filler. Platelet rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous material with many growth factors, such as PDGF, TGF-$\beta$, IGF, VEGF, facilitating bone healing process. And Platelet poor plasma (PPP) is the by-product in procedure of producing PRP. Six rabbits were used as experimental animal. Both maxillary sinus were grafted with Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$ and PRP, and Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$ and PPP. Rabbits were sacrificed at 4, 8 and 12 weeks. The grafting sites were evaluated by histomorphometric analysis. As a result, using PRP showed excellent bone formation in the early stage, but no further significant effect after that. In late stage, the ability of bone formation of using PRP was even worse than using PPP. The further studies need to be considered in this case.

Purpose: The aim of this report is to investigate the efficacy of anorganic bovine bone xenograft(Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$) at maxillary sinus floor augmentation. Materials and methods: Two male patients who missed maxillary posterior teeth were included. They were performed maxillary sinus floor augmentation using anorganic bovine bone xenograft(Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$). After 10 or 13 months, the regenerated tissues were harvested using trephine drills with 2 or 4mm diameter and non-decalcified specimens were made. The specimens were examined histologically and histomorphometrically to investigate graft resorption and new bone formation. Results: Newly formed bone was in contact with Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$ particles directly without any gap between the bone and the particles. The proportions of newly formed bone were $23.4{\sim}25.3%$ in patient 1(Pt.1) and 28.8% in patient 2(Pt.2). And the proportions of remained Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$ were $29.7{\sim}30.2%$ in Pt.1 and 29.2% in Pt.2. The fixtures installed at augmented area showed good stability and the augmented bone height was maintained well. Conclusion: Anorganic bovine bone xenograft(Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$) has high osteoconductivity and helps new bone formation, so that it can be used in maxillary sinus floor augmentation.

In the recent studies, many authors have reported that the success rate of immediate implantation has no difference compared to conventional staged implantation. Although the immediate implantation has many advantages over conventional approach, many clinicians don't seem to practice because they think that most of the extraction sockets will have some bony gab with defects around implant and that this situation makes the result of immediate implantation unpredictable. We clinically analyzed 23 implanted sites of 18 patients treated with immediate implantation in our hospital from September 2003 to January 2004. The $ITI^{(R)}$. dental implant system was used and GBR procedure with $Bio-Oss^{(R)}$. and $Bio-Gide^{(R)}$. was done simultaneously. The pre & post-op. measurements were recorded such as alveolar crest-adjacent tooth CEJ distance, gingival crest-adjacent tooth CEJ distance, existence of periapical lesion, vertical defect around the extraction socket, horizontal defect around the extraction socket, probing depth, radiologic change of alveolar crest height. We report a positive outcome about immediate implantation with review of literatures.

The role of the periosteum on osteointegration of $Bio-Oss^{(R)}$(Geistlich, Wolhusen/Switzerland) was studied in rabbit calvarial defect. 12 New Zealand white male rabbits between 2.8 and 4 kg were included in this randomized, blinded, prospective study. Each rabbit was anesthetized with Ketamine HCl(5 mg/kg) and Xylazine HCl(1.5 ml/kg). An incision was made to the bony cranium and the periosteum was reflected. Using a 6-mm trephine bur(3i. USA), four 8-mm defects were created with copious irrigation. The defects were classified into barrier membrane($Tefgen^{(R)}$, Lifecore Biomedical. Inc, U.S.A.) only group as a control, $Bio-Oss^{(R)}$ with barrier membrane group, $Bio-Oss^{(R)}$ with periosteum covering group, and $Bio-Oss^{(R)}$ without periosteum covering group. There were 2 rabbits in each group. The wound was closed with resorbable suture materials. Rabbits were sacrificed using phentobarbital(100 mg/kg) intravenously at 1, 2, and 4 weeks after surgery. The samples were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde, and decalcified in hydrochloric acid decalcifying solution(Fisher Scientific, Tustin, CA) at $4^{\circ}C$ for 2-4 weeks. It was embedded in paraffin and cut into 6 ${\mu}m$ thickness. The sections were stained with H & E and observed by optical microscope. The results were as follows; 1. The periosteum played an important role in osteointegration of $Bio-Oss^{(R)}$ in bone defects. 2. When the periosteum remained intact and $Bio-Oss^{(R)}$ was placed on the defect, $Bio-Oss^{(R)}$ with periosteum covering has been incorporated into the newly formed bone from 2-week postoperatively. 3. When the periosteum was removed at the surgical procedure, invasion of connective tissue took place among the granules, and new bone formation was delayed compared to periosteum covering group. Therefore, when the bone grafting was performed with periosteal incision procedure to achieve tension-free suture, the integrity of the overlying periosteum should be maintained to avoid fibrous tissue ingrowth.

The ultimate goal of periodontal therapy is to promote the regeneration of lost periodontal tissue, there have been many attempts to develop a method to achieve this goal, hut none of them was completely successful. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of Bio-Oss(R) on alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) activity in human fetal osteoblasts (hFOB1). The results of this study were as follows, in ALP Activity, 100 ${\mu}g/ml$ Bio-Oss(R) treated group showed significantly increased value than negative control group, but positive group($10^{-7}$ M dexamethasone treated group) showed the highest ALP activity at 3 day. In mineralization assay, numerous mineralized nodules were identified as darkly stained spots in 100${\mu}g/ml$ Bio-Oss(R) treated group than two control groups, whereas a small number of mineralized nodules were showed in the positive control. ALP may relate to the initial phase of bone nodule formation. On the basis of these results, this study showed Bio-Oss(R) is capable of accelerating new bone formation through hFOBl differentiation in vitro.

For the regeneration of osseous defect on the furcation area, autogeneous bone graft has been primarily used. But it has the limitation of donor site, additive surgical operation etc. Recently anorganic xenogenic bone graft materials of removing all organic components are commonly used for the regeneration of periodontal defects. This study was the comparison of the effect on the regeneration with two types xenografts($Bio-oss^{(R)}$ and Ca-P thin coated Bovine bone powder) on the furcation involvement in Beagle dogs. After surgically induced chronic periodontitis in bifurcation area of premolar, $Bio-oss^{(R)}$ and Ca-P BBP were grafted on the osseous defects. Tissue blocks including defects with soft tissues were harvested following a four-& eight-week healing interval and prepared for histologic analysis. The results of this study were as follows: 1. $Bio-oss^{(R)}$ group: there were significant differences among the $Bio-oss^{?}$ group at 4weeks and 8weeks, but the control group had various appearances : new bone formation, resorption of graft materials by multinuclear giant cells, connective tissue cells intervention in the bone graft sites etc. 2. Ca-P BBP group: lots of new bone formation were observed but the arrangement of periodontal ligament was not completed at 4weeks. New bone were replaced mature bone and the periodontal ligaments showed the functional arrangement at 8weeks. 3. By reason of undergrowing the epithelium within the osseous defects, new bone formation was not happened in the upper area of bifurcation in $Bio-oss^{(R)}$ group. 4. In Ca-P BBP group, epithelial undergrowth was not seen and generally showed much more new bone formation. 5. Ca-P BBP group showed the osteocyte-like cells at the inner portion of the graft materials 6. Both groups were similar to resorptive appearances of graft materials, but Ca-P BBP group had the better effects of osteoconduction.
