연구목적: 본 연구는 인간의 치수 및 치근단 조직에서 유리된 세포를 이용하여 비교적 최근 소개된 Bioaggregate의 생체친화성을 평가하는 데에 있다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 사람의 발거치로 부터 치수 및 치근단 조직에서 배양된 세포를 이용하였다. Bioaggregate와 white MTA를 혼합하여 세포배양판에 적용한 후 같은 수의 세포를 배양하였다. 1, 3, 그리고 7일 후 위상차현미경을 사용하여 세포의 부착과 성장을 관찰하고 cell viability test를 시행하였다. 얻어진 결과는 Student t-test및 one way ANOVA를 이용하여 분석하였다. 결과: 두가지 종류의 세포 모두 Bioaggregate와 MTA가 혼합된 배양판에서 잘 성장하였으며 Bioaggregate군에서는 inhibition zone이 관찰되지 않았다. Cell viability test에서 두 그룹간 통계적인 유의성 차이는 없었다. 결론: Bioaggreagete는 치수 및 치근단 세포에 대하여 MTA와 유사한 세포친화성을 보였다.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the cytotoxicity, setting time and compressive strength of MTA and two novel tricalcium silicate-based endodontic materials, Bioaggregate (BA) and Biodentine (BD). Materials and Methods: Cytotoxicity was evaluated by using a 2,3-bis(2-methoxy-4-nitro-5-sulfophenyl)-5-((phenylamino)carbonyl)-2H-tetrazolium hydroxide (XTT) assay. Measurements of 9 heavy metals (arsenic, cadmium, chromium, copper, iron, lead, manganese, nickel, and zinc) were performed by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) of leachates obtained by soaking the materials in distilled water. Setting time and compressive strength tests were performed following ISO requirements. Results: BA had comparable cell viability to MTA, whereas the cell viability of BD was significantly lower than that of MTA. The ICP-MS analysis revealed that BD released significantly higher amount of 5 heavy metals (arsenic, copper, iron, manganese, and zinc) than MTA and BA. The setting time of BD was significantly shorter than that of MTA and BA, and the compressive strength of BA was significantly lower than that of MTA and BD. Conclusions: BA and BD were biocompatible, and they did not show any cytotoxic effects on human periodontal ligament fibroblasts. BA showed comparable cytotoxicity to MTA but inferior physical properties. BD had somewhat higher cytotoxicity but superior physical properties than MTA.
