수두 바이 러스(Varicella-zoster virus, VZV) 백신을 생산하기 위하여 약독화된 수두 바이러스 주인 Oka 주를 사용하여 정상세포인 인체 폐세 포(human lung fibroblast cells)로부터 수두 바이 러스 생산조건을 검토하였다. 숙주세포의 배양을 위 한 최적 성장배지로는 DMEM이 조사된 배지 중에 서는 가장 좋음을 알 수 있었으며 숙주세포의 성장율은 세포 age의 지표인 population doubling level (PDL) 이 46 이상인 경우 낮아지는 것무로 확인되 었으며 따라서 수두바이러스 생산을 위해서는 PDL 4 46 이하의 young cell을 사용해야 할 것으로 사료된 다 한편 수두바이러스 생산을 위한 최적 증식조건 으로는 배양온도 $37^{\circ}C$, 혈청농도 2%, MOl 1:5였다. 숙주세포를 대량배양하기 위한 기본조건을 검토 하기 위하여 미 럽담체 (Cytodex-3)를 이용한 spm­n ner flask culture를 시행하였다. 미럽담체에서의 숙 주세포 성장은 T -flask와 비하여 별다른 차이가 없었으나 VZV의 증식은 T-flask 배양에서보다 훨씬 낮았다. 이는 미립담체배양에서의 높은 전단응력 과 미립담체끼리의 영김현상 때문으로 생각된다.

Objectives: The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the biocompatibility of newly proposed root-end filling materials, Biodentine, Micro-Mega mineral trioxide aggregate (MM-MTA), polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) bone cement, and Smart Dentin Replacement (SDR), in comparison with contemporary root-end filling materials, intermediate restorative material (IRM), Dyract compomer, ProRoot MTA (PMTA), and Vitrebond, using human periodontal ligament (hPDL) fibroblasts. Materials and Methods: Ten discs from each material were fabricated in sterile Teflon molds and 24-hour eluates were obtained from each root-end filling material in cell culture media after 1- or 3-day setting. hPDL fibroblasts were plated at a density of $5{\times}10^3/well$, and were incubated for 24 hours with 1:1, 1:2, 1:4, and 1:8 dilutions of eluates. Cell viability was evaluated by XTT assay. Data was statistically analysed. Apoptotic/necrotic activity of PDL cells exposed to material eluates was established by flow cytometry. Results: The Vitrebond and IRM were significantly more cytotoxic than the other root-end filling materials (p < 0.05). Those cells exposed to the Biodentine and Dyract compomer eluates showed the highest survival rates (p < 0.05), while the PMTA, MM-MTA, SDR, and PMMA groups exhibited similar cell viabilities. Three-day samples were more cytotoxic than 1-day samples (p < 0.05). Eluates from the cements at 1:1 dilution were significantly more cytotoxic (p < 0.05). Vitrebond induced cell necrosis as indicated by flow cytometry. Conclusions: This in vitro study demonstrated that Biodentine and Compomer were more biocompatible than the other root-end filling materials. Vitrebond eluate caused necrotic cell death.

Leptin is one of the adipocytokines produced from adipose tissue but its functions in periodontal tissue have not previously been investigated. In our current study, we examined the effects of leptin on the expression of interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-8 in periodontal ligament (PDL) cells and gingival fibroblasts. Leptin receptor expression was evaluated by RT-PCR and the production of cytokines was measured by ELISA. The phosphorylation of Akt and Erk1/2 was assessed by western blotting. mRNA of long and short form leptin receptors were detected in both PDL cells and gingival fibroblasts. Leptin was found to increase the production of IL-6 and IL-8 in both of these cell types, an effect which was not blocked by polymyxin B, an inhibitor of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Leptin did not alter the production of IL-6 and IL-8 induced by LPS in PDL cells but increased Akt and Erk1/2 phosphorylation in these cells. These results suggest that leptin acts as an inducer of IL-6 and IL-8 in PDL cells and gingival fibroblasts.

이 연구의 목적은 배양된 사람 치주인대 세포에서 파골세포의 형성에 관련된 물질을 합성, 분비할 수 있는지를 알아보고 압박력이 M-CSF, IL-$1{\beta}$, RANKL 및 OPG mRNA의 발현에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 교정치료를 목적으로 발치된 소구치에서 얻은 치주인대세포를 배양한 후 다양한 크기(0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, $4.0\;g/cm^2$)의 기계적 자극을 다양한 기간(0.5, 1.5, 6, 24, 48 hours) 동안 적용하고, M-CSF, IL-$1{\beta}$, RANKL, OPG mRNA 발현양의 변화를 검사하였다. 각각의 실험군에서 얻어진 mRNA에 대해 역전사 중합효소 연쇄반응검사를 시행하였다. 검사 결과 압박력은 사람 치주인대 세포에서 M-CSF mRNA를 발현시켰으며 M-CSF, IL-$1{\beta}$, RANKL mRNA의 발현양은 자극의 크기와 기간에 따라 증가하였다. 그러나 압박력은 사람 치주인대 세포에서 OPG mRNA의 발현양에 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과는 기계적 자극이 치주인대 세포에서 M-CSF, IL-$1{\beta}$, RANKL mRNA의 발현양을 조절함으로 파골세포의 분화에 영향을 미칠 수 있음을 시사한다.

The molecular mechanisms control the function of PDL(periodonta1 ligament) cells and/or fibroblasts remain unclear. PDLsl7, PDL-specific gene, had previousely　identified the cDNA for a novel protein from cultured　PDL fibroblasts using subtraction hybridization between gingival fibroblasts and　PDL fibroblasts. The purpose　of this study was to determine the regulation by growth factors and cytokines on　PDLsl7 gene expression in　cultured human periodontal ligament cells and observe the immunohistochemical　localization of PDLsl7 protein in various tissues of mouse. Primary PDL fibroblasts isolated by scraping the root of the extracted human mandibular third molars. The cells were incubated with various concentration of human recombinant $IL-1{\beta}$, PDGF-BB and TGF\;${\beta}$ for 48h nd 2 weeks. At each time point total RNA was extracted and the levels of transcription ere assessed by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR assay). polyclonal antiserum raised against PDLsl7 peptides, CLSVSYNRSYQINE and SEAVHETDLHDGC, were made, and stained the tooth, periodontium, developing bone, bone marrow and mid-palatal suture of the mouse. The results were as follows. 1. PDLsl7 mRNA levels were increased in response to PDGF (10ng/ml) and $TGF\;{\beta}$(20ng/ml) after treatment of the $IL-1{\beta}$, PDGF-BB and $TGF{\beta}$for 48 h. 2. PDLsl7 was up-regulated only by $TGF{\beta}$(20 ng/ml) after treatment of the $IL-1{\beta}$, PDGF-BB and $TGF\;{\beta}$ for 2 weeks and unchanged by the other stimulants. 3. PDLsl7 was a novel protein coding the 142 amino acid peptides in the ORF and the nucleotide sequences of the obtained cDNA from RT-PCR was exactly same as the nucleotides of the database. 4. Immunohistochemical analysis showed that PDLsl7 is preferentially expressed in the PDL, differentiating osteoblast-like cells and stromal cells of the bone marrow in the adult mouse. 5. The expression of PDLsl7 protein was barely detectable in gingival fibroblasts, hematopoetic cells of the bone marrow and mature osteocytes of the alveolar bone. These results suggest that PDLsl7 might upregulated by PDGF-BB or $TGF{\beta}$ and acts at the initial stage of differentiation when the undifferentiated mesenchymal cells in the bone marrow and PDL differentiate into multiple cell types. However, more research needs to be performed to gain a better understanding of the exact function of PDLsl7 during the differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal and PDL cells.

Objective: To determine the interleukin (IL)-6 levels in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) of patients with severe root resorption after orthodontic treatment and investigate the effects of different static compressive forces (CFs) on IL-6 production by human periodontal ligament (hPDL) cells and the influence of IL-6 on osteoclastic activation from human osteoclastic precursor (hOCP) cells in vitro. Methods: IL-6 levels in GCF samples collected from 20 patients (15 and 5 subjects without and with radiographic evidence of severe root resorption, respectively) who had undergone orthodontic treatment were measured by ELISA. The levels of IL-6 mRNA in hPDL cells and IL-6 protein in conditioned medium after the application of different uniform CFs (0, 1.0, 2.0, or 4.0 $g/cm^2$ for up to 72 h) were measured by real-time PCR and ELISA, respectively. Finally, the influence of IL-6 on mature osteoclasts was investigated by using hOCP cells on dentin slices in a pit-formation assay. Results: Clinically, the IL-6 levels were significantly higher in the resorption group than in the control group. In vitro, IL-6 mRNA expression significantly increased with increasing CF. IL-6 protein secretion also increased in a time- and magnitude-dependent manner. Resorbed areas on dentin slices were significantly greater in the recombinant human IL-6-treated group and group cultured in hPDL cell-conditioned medium with CF application (4.0 $g/cm^2$) than in the group cultured in hPDL cell-conditioned medium without CF application. Conclusions: IL-6 may play an important role in inducing or facilitating orthodontically induced inflammatory root resorption.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effect of pre-applied orthodontic force on the regeneration of periodontal ligament (PDL) tissues and the underlying mechanisms in tooth replantation. Methods: Orthodontic force (50 cN) was applied to the left maxillary first molars of 7-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 32); the right maxillary first molars were left untreated to serve as the control group. After 7 days, the first molars on both sides were fully luxated and were immediately replanted in their original sockets. To verify the effects of the pre-applied orthodontic force, we assessed gene expression by using microarray analysis and real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), cell proliferation by using proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) immunofluorescence staining, and morphological changes by using histological analysis. Results: Application of orthodontic force for 7 days led to the proliferation of PDL tissues, as verified on microarray analysis and PCNA staining. Histological analysis after replantation revealed less root resorption, a better arrangement of PDL fibers, and earlier regeneration of periodontal tissues in the experimental group than in the control group. For the key genes involved in periodontal tissue remodeling, including CXCL2, CCL4, CCL7, MMP3, PCNA, OPG, and RUNX2, quantitative RT-PCR confirmed that messenger RNA levels were higher at 1 or 2 weeks in the experimental group. Conclusions: These results suggest that the application of orthodontic force prior to tooth replantation enhanced the proliferation and activities of PDL cells and may lead to higher success rates with fewer complications.

It has been focused on the importance of the host inflammatory response in periodontal pathogenesis and progression, treatment has been introduced to control the host response and the method, which diminishes production and activity of MMP by doxycycline, has been used in periodontal field. MMP is a proteolytic enzyme which plays a major role in tissue destruction and MMP-1 is secreted in the periodontally healthy tissue, while MMP-8, 9, 13, etc in the inflammatory state. Among these, MMP-13 has been discovered lately and reported to degrade primarily type II collagen. Periodontal ligament (PDL) cell plays a role in destruction of periodontal tissue. This study was to evaluate the effect of doxycycline and mefenamic acid, non-steroidal antiinflammatory drug on MMP-13 mRNA expression in the rat PDL cell. Doxycycline concentration of $1{\sim}100\;{\mu}g/ml$ was added rat PDL cell and cell activity was measured by MIT assay at day 1 and 3. MMP-13 gene expression was evaluated by RT-PCR after PDL cells were pre-treated for 1hour with doxycycline (50 ${\mu}g/ml$) alone or with mefenamic acid ($10^{-6}M$), then added $IL-1{\beta}$(1.0 ng/ml) and incubated for 16-18 hours. The results are as follows: 1. Cell activity decreased Significantly at 24 and 72 hours in 100 ${\mu}g/ml$ (p<0.05). 2. Level of MMP-13 mRNA was in 20.2% increase by $IL-1{\beta}$ and in pre-treating doxycycline group, expression of $IL-1{\beta}$ induced MMP-13 mRNA was inhibited by 31% than $IL-1{\beta}$ treated only. 3. Mefenamic acid did not inhibit on the expression of $IL-1{\beta}$ induced MMP-13 mRNA, while mefenamic acid in combination with doxycycline inhibited the expression by 41% compared to only $IL-1{\beta}$ stimulation. These results suggest that doxycycline synergistically inhibit the expression of $IL-1{\beta}$ induced MMP-13 mRNA in combination with mefenamic acid.

치주조직 재생을 위해서는 새로운 백악질과 치조골 그리고, 치주인대의 재생이 필요하며, 이러한 재생을 담당할 세포의 분화가 필수적이다. 이러한 분화를 담당하는 것은 치주인대세포이며, 이 중 골아세포의 분화가 중요하다. 본 실험의 목적은 치주조직 재생에 있어서 중요한 요소인 치주인대세포의 골아세포성 세포로의 분화를 관찰하며, Dex가 광물화에 미치는 영향과 농도에 따른 차이를 알아보고자 시행하였다. 또한, 광물화시 발현되는 여러 골기질 단백질 중 Matrix GlaProtein의 발현양상도 관찰하였다. 교정치료를 목적으로 내원한 환자의 제1소구치 부위의 정상치은을 절제하고, 건강한 제1소구치를 발거하여 치은섬유아세포와 치주인대세포를 분리, 배양하여, ascorbic acid와 ${\beta}$-glycerophosphate 투여군을 실험1군, ascorbic acid, ${\beta}$-glycerophosphate, Dex 100nM 투여군을 실험 2군, ascorbic acid, ${\beta}$-glycerophosphate, Dex $5{\mu}M$ 투여군을 실험3군, 그리고, 단순 배양만 시킨군을 대조군으로 하여 비교하였다. 시간경과에 따른 치주인대세포 형태의 변화 양상은 초기에 방추형 혹은 다각형의 단일층 형태에서 7일경에는 세포 크기와 수가 증가하여 복합층 형태로 변화했으며, 배양 14일 이후에는 세포들의 방향성이 없어지고, 더욱 치밀해 졌다. 골 결절형성은 치주인 대세포의 Dex 투여군에서만 21일째에 나타났으며, $5{\mu}M$ 투여군에서 100nM 투여군보다 더 많이 나타났다. ALP 활성도를 비교해보면 치주인대세포에서 0, 7일 경에는 활성도를 보이지 않았으며, 14일경에 높은 활성도롤 나타냈으며, 21일에도 비슷한 활성도를 유지하였다. MGP 유전자 발현 양상은 대조군과 실험군 모두에서 Matrix Gla Protein에 대한 유전자의 발현이 나타났으며，그 발현양상은 모든 시기에서 일정하였다. 이상의 결과로 보아 치주인대세포는 골아세포로의 분화가 가능하며, Dex는 농도의존적으로 광물화에 영향을 미치는 것으로 사료된다. 그리고, MGP는 치주인대세포에서 발현이 감지되었으며, 광물화에는 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 사료된다.
