Objectives: This study investigated the effect of continuous application of 10-methacryloyloxydecyldihydrogen phosphate (MDP)-containing primer and luting resin cement on bond strength to tribochemical silica-coated yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (Y-TZP). Materials and Methods: Forty bovine teeth and Y-TZP specimens were prepared. The dentin specimens were embedded in molds, with one side of the dentin exposed for cementation with the zirconia specimen. The Y-TZP specimen was prepared in the form of a cylinder with a diameter of 3 mm and a height of 10 mm. The bonding surface of the Y-TZP specimen was sandblasted with silica-coated aluminium oxide particles. The forty tribochemical silica-coated Y-TZP specimens were cemented to the bovine dentin (4 groups; n = 10) with either an MDP-free primer or an MDP-containing primer and either an MDP-free resin cement or an MDP-containing resin cement. After a shear bond strength (SBS) test, the data were analyzed using 1-way analysis of variance and the Tukey test (${\alpha}=0.05$). Results: The group with MDP-free primer and resin cement showed significantly lower SBS values than the MDP-containing groups (p < 0.05). Among the MDP-containing groups, the group with MDP-containing primer and resin cement showed significantly higher SBS values than the other groups (p < 0.05). Conclusions: The combination of MDP-containing primer and luting cement following tribochemical silica coating to Y-TZP was the best choice among the alternatives tested in this study.

The adjuvant effect of a muramyl dipeptide (MDP) derivative, MDP-Lys(L18), on enhancing of antitumor immunity induced by X-irradiated tumor cells against highly metastatic B16-BL6 melanoma cells was examined in mice. Mice immunized intradermally (i.d.) with a mixture of X-irradiated B16-BL6 cells and MDP-Lys (L18) [Vac+MDP-Lys (L18)] followed by an intravenous (i.v.)inoculation of $10^4$ viable tumor cells 7 days after immunization, showed a significant inhibition of experimental lung metastasis of B16-BL6 melanoma cells. The most effective immunization for the prophylactic inhibition of tumor metastasis was obtained from the mixture of $100{\;}\mu\textrm{g}$ of MDP-Lys (L18) and $10^4$ X-irradiatied tumor vaccine. Furthermore, immunization of mice with Vac+MDP-Lys(L18), 3 days after tumor challenge, resulted in a significant inhibition of lung metastasis of B16-BL6 melanoma cells in an experimental lung metastasis model. Similarly, the administration of Vac+MDP-Lys(L18), 1 or 7 days after tumor removal, markedly inhibited tumor metastasis of B16-BL6 in a spontaneous lung metastasis model. When Vac+MDP-Lys (L18) was i.d. administered 3 days after subcutaneous (s.c.) inoculation of tumor cells ($5{\times}10^5/site$) on the back, mice treated with Vac+MDP-Lys(L18) showed inhibition of significantly tumor growth on day 20. These results suggest that MDP-Lys (L18) is able to enhance antitumor activity induced by X-irradiated tumor vaccine to reduce lung metastasis of tumor cells, and is a potent immunomodulating agent which may be applied prophylactically as well as therapeutically to treatment of cancer metastasis.

본 연구는 MDP 적용 후 타액으로 오염된 지르코니아 수복물을 다양한 방법으로 세척한 후 전단결합강도를 비교하여 세척방법이 결합강도에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 한다. 80개의 지르코니아 시편을 8개의 군으로 나누었다. 모든 시편에 MDP를 적용한 후 한 개의 군(음성대조군)을 제외하고 나머지 군에 타액을 적용하여 오염시켰다. 그 중 한 개의 군(양성대조군)은 타액 오염 후 세척하지 않고 즉시 레진 시멘트를 이용하여 접착하였다. 나머지 6개의 군의 시편을 물을 이용하여 세척하고 MDP를 적용하거나(물+MDP) 적용하지 않은 군(물), Ivoclean으로 세척하고 MDP를 적용하거나(IVOCLEAN+MDP) 적용하지 않은 군(IVOCLEAN), 차아염소산나트륨을 이용하여 세척하고 MDP를 적용하거나(NaOCl+MDP) 적용하지 않은 군(NaOCl)으로 분류하였다. 모드 시편은 $37^{\circ}C$ 증류수에 24시간 저장한 후 전단강도를 측정하였고, ANOVA, Tukey's post hoc test를 이용하여 전단강도를 분석하였고, MDP의 재적용 여부가 미치는 영향에 대해서는 student t-test를 이용하여 통계분석하여 다음의 결과를 얻었다. 양성대조군이 가장 낮은 전단강도 값을 나타냈으며, 물군과 NaOCl군이 낮은 전단강도 값을 나타내며 양성대조군과 유의한 차이가 없었다. IVOCLEAN군은 물군과 NaOCl군보다 유의하게 높은 전단강도 값을 나타내며 음성대조군과 유의한 차이가 없었다. MDP를 재적용한 것은 물과 차아염소산나트륨을 이용한 경우 MDP를 재적용하지 않은 경우와 유의한 차이를 나타내면서 음성대조군과 유의한 차이가 없었다. Ivoclean을 사용한 경우 MDP 재적용 여부와는 관계없이 음성대조군과 유의한 차이가 없었다. 결론적으로, 세척방법에 따라 전단강도는 영향을 받으며, MDP 재적용 여부와는 관계없이 Ivoclean이 효과적이며, 물과 차아염소산나트륨 사용시에는 MDP를 다시 적용해주는 것이 결합강도를 향상시킬 수 있는 방법으로 사료된다.

Background: Resin-based dental materials release residual monomers or other substances from incomplete polymerization into the oral cavity, thereby causing adverse biological effects on oral tissue. 10-Methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate (10-MDP), an acidic monomer containing dihydrogen phosphate and methacrylate groups, is the most commonly used component of resin-based dental materials, such as restorative composite resins, dentin adhesives, and resin cements. Although previous studies have reported the cytotoxicity and biocompatibility in various cultured cells, the effects of resin monomers on cellular aging have not been reported to date. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effects of the resin monomer 10-MDP on cellular senescence and inflamm-aging in vitro. Methods: After stimulation with 10-MDP, MC3T3-E1 osteoblast-like cells were examined for cell viability by WST-8 assay and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production by flow cytometry. The protein and mRNA levels of molecular markers of aging were determined by western blotting and RT-PCR analysis, respectively. Results: Treatment with 0.05 to 1 mM 10-MDP for 24 hours reduced the survival of MC3T3-E1 cells in a concentration-dependent manner. The intracellular ROS levels in the 10-MDP-treated experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group. 10-MDP at a concentration of 0.1 mM increased p53, p16, and p21 protein levels. Additionally, an aging pattern was observed with blue staining due to intracellular senescence-associated beta-galactosidase activity. Treatment with 10-MDP increased the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6 and IL-8, however their expression was decreased by mitogen-activated-protein-kinase (MAPK) inhibitors. Conclusion: Taken together, these results suggest that the exposure of osteoblast-like cells to the dental resin monomer 10-MDP, increases the level of cellular senescence and the inflammatory response is mediated by the MAPK pathway.

Platelet-activating factor(PAF) is a phospholipid mediator of pulmonary inflammation, and immunologic reaction. In this study, the role of PAF on tumor necrosis factor$(TNF_{-{\alpha}})$ production by rat alveolar macrophages(AM) was examined. When PAF $(10^{-12}{\sim}10{-16}\;M)$ alone was added to AM culture, $(TNF_{-{\alpha}})$ production was not significantly increased above the resting level. In contrast, the combined addition of PAF $(10^{-6}\;M)$ and muramyl dipeptide(MDP) $(1.0\;{\mu}g\ml)$ to AM cultures markedly enhanced $(TNF_{-{\alpha}})$ production with 8.2 fold increase compared with AM culture in resting state. This potentiative effect was 313% above the sum of the separate effects of PAF and MDP. To characterize MDP effects on $(TNF_{-{\alpha}})$ production, the dose-response of AM cultured with various concentrations of MDP was tested. High level of MDP $(10\;{\mu}g\ml)$ could not significantly enhance the potentiation effect on $(TNF_{-{\alpha}})$ production compared with AM cultures with low level of MDP $(0.1\;{\mu}g\ml)$, i.e. 112.5% vs 107.8%, respectively when $10^{-10}$ M of PAF was simultaneously added to the cell culture. These data support that the potentiation of TNF. g production in AM culture is mediated by PAF rather than MDf It was also evaluated whether the similar result was obtained in silica, respirable toxic particle-treated AM culture. $(TNF_{-{\alpha}})$ production was also significantly enhanced in the PAF $(10^{-6}\;M)$ and silica $(50\;{\mu}g\ml)$-added cell cultures with 4.7 fold above the value of silica alone-stimulated cells. These results indicate that PAF can potentiate $(TNF_{-{\alpha}})$ production by MDP-or silica- stimulated AM and suggest that PAF may play a potent role in lung inflammation and disease associated with microbe and occupational dust exposures.

본 연구는 $^{99}Mo-^{99m}Tc$ 발생기시스템에서 용출될 수 있는 알루미늄이 $^{99m}Tc$-MDP의 표지효율과 생체내 분포에 어떤 영향을 미치는지를 보기 위한 실험이다. 알루미늄이온 농도 ($0-62.5{\mu}g/ml$)를 증가시킬수록 $^{99m}Tc$-MDP의 표지효율은 급격히 떨어지며 상대적으로 $^{99m}Tc$ pertechnetate와 hydrolyzed reduced $^{99m}Tc$ 부위의 상대적인 양은 증가되었다. $^{99m}Tc$-MDP는 알루미늄 존재하에서도 상당히 안정하였다. 알루미늄에 의해 $^{99m}Tc$-MDP 반응물이 교질을 형성하는지를 보기 위해 $0.22{\mu}m$ syringe filter로 여과한 액은 여과하지 않은 것과 유의한 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 마우스에 대한 생체내 분포실험은 알루미늄에 의해 $^{99m}Tc$-MDP의 표지효율이 떨어지고 $^{99m}Tc$ pertechnetate의 증가로 인해 혈액과 심장의 흡수는 증가하나 간과 뼈의 흡수는 별다른 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 랫트의 골스캔에서는 $5{\mu}g/ml$의 알루미늄농도에서는 영상의 차이가 없으나 $10{\mu}g/ml$ 농도에서는 하복부의 흡수가 높게 나타났다. 이상의 결과는 알루미늄이 $^{99}Mo-^{99m}Tc$ 발생기시스템 칼럼의 용출제한량인 $10{\mu}g/ml$이하에서도 MDP의 표지효율에 상당한 영향을 미칠 수 있다는 것을 보여준다. 따라서$^{99m}Tc$-MDP 골스캔시 연조직에의 흡수가 보이는 경우에도 방사성의약품의 방사화학적 순도에 대한 정도관리가 충분히 이루어 졌다면 $^{99}Mo-^{99m}Tc$ 발생기시스템에서 용출되는 알루미늄에 의한 영향은 배제될 수 있다.

목적: 핵의학과에서 흔하게 이용되는 Tc-99m MDP 또는 Tc-99m DTPA를 주사한 후 방사선 적응반응이 일어나는지를 확인하고, 어느 경우에 방사선 적응반응이 더 현저하게 유도되는지 알아보기 위하여 이 연구를 시행하였다. 대상 및 방법: Tc-99m MDP 또는 Tc-99m DTPA 신티그라피를 시행한 45명의 환자(남자 25명, 여자 20명, 평균 연령 $44{\pm}18$세)를 대상으로 Tc-99m MDP 뜨는 Tc-99m DTPA 주사 전과 주사 후 4시간에 각각 5 ml씩 채혈하여 배양하고 배양 46시간 후에 Cs-137조사기 (central dose rate=654 Gy/h, Gammacell 3000 Elan, Nordion, Canada)를 이용하여 2 Gy의 감마선을 조사하였다. 대조군 20명(남자 12명, 여자 8명, 평균연령 $43{\pm}7$세)의 혈액을 채혈하여 Tc-99m MDP 또는 Tc-99m DTPA 주사 전에 채혈한 군과 같은 방법으로 조사하고 배양하였다. Colcemid 처리 2시간 후에 수확하여 불안정 염색체인 반지형과 이중 중심체형 염색체의 수자를 계수 하여 불안정 염색체 출현빈도(Ydr)를 구하여 비교하였다. 고선량의 방사선 단독조사에 의한 Ydr값과 방사성의약품 투여 후 고선량의 방사선 조사에 의해 유도된 Ydr값의 차이값을 적응반응지수로 정의하고, Tc-99m MDP 신티그라피와 Tc-99m DTPA 신티그라피의 적응반응지수를 비교하였다. 결과. 2 Gy 단독조사에 의한 Ydr값에 비해 Tc-99m MDP 또는 Tc-99m DTPA 주사한 후에 2 Gy 조사한 군에서 Ydr값이 유의하게 감소하였다($0.45{\pm}0.20\;vs.\;0.24{\pm}0.10$, p=0.001). Tc-99m MDP 또는 Tc-99m DTPA에 의해 유도된 적응반응은 단백합성억제제인 cycloheximide에 의해 억제되었다($0.24{\pm}0.10\;vs.\;0.43{\pm}0.16$, p=0.001). Tc-99m MDP 신티그라피에 의한 적응반응 지수는 Tc-99m DTPA 신티그라피에 의한 적응반응지수에 비해 유의하게 높았다($0.10{\pm}0.06\;vs.\;0.24{\pm}0.05$, p=0.0001). 결론: Tc-99m MDP 신티그라피 또는 Tc-99m DTPA 신티그라피에 의한 저선량의 방사선 조사에 의하여 말초혈액 림프구에서 방사선 적응반응이 유도되었고, 적응반응의 정도는 Tc-99m MDP 골 신티그라피를 시행하는 환자에서 더욱 현저함을 알 수 있었다.

The bone scan reflects the metabolic reaction of bone to a disease process, whether neoplastic, traumatic or inflammatory. In normal bone tissue, the labeled diphosphate complexes accumulate in the perivascular fluid next to the marrow cavity at the interface between uncalcified and calcified bone matrix. HMDP has the most rapid plasma clearance among the commonly used diphosphonate followed by MDP and then HEDP. I have studied about bone scan time by use of $^{99m}Tc-MDP$, and got 336 images from 112 patients. The result obtained as follow; 1. Accumulation rate of $^{99m}Tc-MDP$ is higher than other age groups in below 30-year old group. 2. Accumulation rate, in 10year old group, is 75.85% on 120min. but other groups are most high on 180 min. 3. The density differants between bone and soft tissue increased with time. 4. Image contrast is good in younger group than old.

Public domain defect data sets, such as NASA data sets which are available from the NASA MDP and PROMISE repositories, make it possible to compare the results of different defect prediction models by using the same data sets. This means that repeatable and general prediction models can be built. However, some recent studies have raised questions about the quality of two versions of NASA data set, and made new cleaned data sets by applying their data cleaning processes. We find that there are two ways in the NASA MDP versions to determine the defectiveness of a module, 0 or 1, and the two results are different in some cases. This serious problem, to our knowledge, has not been addressed in previous studies. To handle this ambiguity problem, we define two kinds of module defectiveness and two conditions that can be used to determine the ambiguous cases. We meticulously analyze 5 projects among the 13 NASA projects by using our ambiguity analysis method. The results show that JM1 and PC4 are the best projects with few ambiguous cases.
