The cells associated with normal defense mechanism in inflammation release free oxygen radicals, hydroxy radicals, and various protease, all of which can damage the surrounding cells(fibroblasts) and matrix molecules(collagen). The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of "scavenger" enzyme, superoxide dismutase(SOD). to periodontal ligament (PDL) cells. Human PDL cells were cultured from the teeth extracted for non-periodontal reason. Cultured PDL cells in vitro were treated with SOD and LPS according to dosage and culture times. Cellular activity was exaimed by Microtitration(MTT) assay. The quantitative expression of cellular proliferation by proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA), collagen type I and fibronectin by indirect immunocytochemically stain in PDL cells were done. The results were as follows: 1. As only SOD treated group at 2 and 3 days, PDL cell activity was significantly increased at more than 150U(P<0.05). 2. When LPS(0.5, $5{\mu}g/m{\ell}$) and SOD(more than 150U) were added together, it was significantly increased than LPS only treated and control groups at 2 days(P<0.05). 3. When LPS($5{\mu}g/m{\ell}$) and SOD(150, 300U) were added together, PCNA index was significantly increased than LPS only treated and control groups at 2 and 3 days(P<0.05). 4. When LPS($5{\mu}g/m{\ell}$) and SOD(150U) were added together, collagen type I was significantly increased than LPS only treated and control groups at 3 days(P<0.05). 5.When LPS($5{\mu}g/m{\ell}$) and SOD(300U) were added together, fibronectin was significantly increased than LPS only treated and control groups at 3 days(P<0.05). On the above the results, the SOD in association with collagen type I, fibonectin, and PCNA may afford biological protection to oxy-radicals that were typically liberated during normal inflammatory response. Thus, the exogenous application of SOD may be effective in sthe treatment of the localized breakdown associated with chronic periodontal disease.

흡연의 주성분중의 하나인 니코틴은 인체내에 다양한 전신적 및 국소적인 질환의 원인으로 보고 되어지고 있다. 전신적인 질환에 있어 특히, 호흡기와 순환기 조직세포에 대한 세포분열효과가 많은 연구의 초점이 되어왔으며, 국소적인 효과에 대한 연구에서는 조직파괴나 치료후 치유지연에 대해 보고하고 있다. Platelet-Derived Growth Factor(PDGF)와 Insulin-like Growth Factor(IGF)는 치주인대세포의 세포분열을 촉진하는 주요 성장인자로 알려져있다. 본 연구의 목적은 니코틴이 사람의 치주인대세포에 미치는 세포분열효과를 알아보기 위하여 니코틴 처리된 치주인대세포로부터 추출한 PDGF-${\alpha}\;and\;{\beta}$ receptor 및 IGF-l 수용기의 mRNA변화를 Northern분석을 이용해 확인해 보고자 함이다. 실험군은 각기 다른 농도의 니코틴(100ng/ml, 1000mg/ml)과 배양액내 혈청농도($1\%,\;10\%$)로 나누었으며 이를 각각 니코틴 처리 시간에 따라 분류하였다. 본연구의 결과로 $10\%$ 혈청의 배양액과 100ng/ml 니코틴 농도군에서 모든 성장인자 수용체의 mRNA가 증가됨을 보였으며 이는 흡연자의 체내 축적 가능한 니코틴 농도에서 치주인대세포의 세포분열을 촉진한다는 추측을 가능케 한다.

Th2 cell immunity is required for host defense against helminths, but it is detrimental in allergic diseases in humans. Unlike Th1 cell and Th17 cell subsets, the mechanism by which dendritic cells modulate Th2 cell responses has been obscure, in part because of the inability of dendritic cells to provide IL-4, which is indispensable for Th2 cell lineage commitment. In this regard, immune cells other than dendritic cells, such as basophils and innate lymphoid cells, have been suggested as Th2 cell inducers. More recently, multiple independent researchers have shown that specialized subsets of dendritic cells mediate Th2 cell responses. This review will discuss the current understanding related to the regulation of Th2 cell responses by dendritic cells and other immune cells.

치아이동시 골대사에 있어 glycosaminoglycan의 역할에 대해 알아보고자 glycosaminoglycan의 주요 구성 성분인 chondroitin 4-sulfate(CH-4S)의 치주조직 내에서의 면역반응 정도 및 분포 양상을 백서 치아의 실험적 이동 과정에서 면역조직화학적으로 관찰하였다. 또한 사람 치주인대세포를 배양하여 여러 종류의 cytokine을 투여한 후 CH-4S의 발현 양상의 변화를 Western blot analysis를 통해 확인하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 치아이동에 반응하는 치수, 치주인대, 골모세포, 파골세포, 골세포 부위에서의 CH-4S 발현이 대조군보다 많았으나 상아질, 백악질에서의 CH-4S의 발현은 견인력 적용 기간에 관계없이 대조군과 큰 차이가 없었다. 2. 치수에서 CH-4S의 발현은 교정력을 가한 1일째에 크게 증가하였다가 7일째부터 감소되었으며 14일째에는 대조군과 차이가 없었다. 3. 치주인대에서 CH-4S의 발현은 주로 치조골 면을 따라 견인측에서 나타났는데 교정력을 가한 1일째에 가장 많은 발현을 보인 후 4일째부터 감소하기 시작하였다. 4. 골모세포와 파골세포 및 골세포에서 CH-4S의 발현은 4일째에 가장 많은 발현을 보였고 7일째 이후에는 크게 감소하였다. 3. 치주인대세포에 PDGF-BB를 투여한 경우 3일째에 가장 많은 CH-4S의 발현을 보였다. 6. 치주인대세포에 $TNF-\alpha$ 처리 시 배양 1일째에 CH-4S의 발현 감소를 보였다. 7. 치주인대세포에 PDGF-BB와 $TGF-\beta$를 혼합 투여 한 경우가 PDGF-BB 및 $TGF-\beta$를 단독 투여한 경우 보다 배양3일째에 CH-4S의 발현이 많았고 LPS나 $TNF-\alpha$ 투여군은 유사한 발현 감소를 보였다. 이상과 같이 교정적 치아이동시 시기 및 부위에 따라 glycosaminoglycan의 발현이 차이를 보이며, 치주인대세포에서도 cytokine의 자극에 따라 glycosaminoglycan의 발현이 변화하는 것으로 보아, glycosaminoglycan이 골대사에 있어 중요한 조절 인자로서의 역할을 하는 것으로 여겨진다.

Magnoliae cortex has been used as a drug for treatment of fractures in Chinese medicine and safflower(Carthamus tinctorius $Linn{\acute{e}}$) has been traditionally used for treatment of blood stasis. The purpose of present study was to examine the biologic effects of magnoliae cortex extract and safflower extract mixture(MSM) on human periodontal ligament cells and fetal rat calvarial osteoblasts and on healing of rat calvarial defects. The ethanolic extracts of magnoliae cortex(MCE), safflower seed(SSE), Zea May L(ZML) were prepared as positive control group. MSM mixed to the ratios of 1 : 1, 1 : 2, 1 : 5 and 1 : 10 were used as test group. The effects of each agents on the growth and survival, ALPase activity, cell proliferation and tissue regenerative effect of each extracts was evaluated by histomorphometric measuring of newly formed bone on the 8 mm defect in rat calvaria after oral administration of 2 ratio groups(1 : 5 and 1 : 10) at 3 different doses (0.1, 0.25 and 0.5g/kg per day). MSM stimulated the growth and survival rate of osteoblasts and PDL cells more than any other agents. The growth and survival rate were increased as the proportion of safflower seed extract was increased. MCE, SSE, ZML stimulated the ALPase activity of osteoblast and PDL cell in comparison to the negative control group. But all groups of MSM regardless of ratio of safflower seed extract stimulated the ALPase activity than any other agent. The ALPase activity was also increased as the proportion of safflower seed extract was increased. Although MCE, SSE, ZML stimulated the proliferation of osteoblasts. 1 : 5 and 1 : 10 ratio MSM showed significant increase in stimulation of proliferation of osteoblasts. No agent significantly increased proliferation of PDL cells. Significant new bone formation were seen where 1 : 5 ratio, 0.5g/kg group and 1 : 10 ratio, 0.25, 0.5g/kg groups were used. These results show that magnoliae cortex extract and safflower seed extract mixture can potentially increase bone regeneration ability.

The properties of manufactured SOFC unit cell using decalcomania method were investigated. The decalcomania method that used in ceramics, dish, vessel and etc. was the very simple process. The SOFC unit cell manufacturer using decalcomania method is very simple process. Especially, the decalcomania method was the most suitable manufacturing method for the segmented type SOFC. The cathode, prevent diffusion layer (PDL), anode functional layer (AFL) and electrolyte were manufactured using decalcomania method on porous anode support. The sintered electrolyte at 1450$^{\circ}C$ for 2 h using decalcomania method was very dense, and the thickness was about 10 ${\mu}m$. The cathode, the PDL and the AFL were manufactured using decalcomania method and was sintered at 1250$^{\circ}C$ for 2 h, and the sintered electrodes were the porous. As a result, with humidified hydrogen used as fuel, the cell with an 15 ${\mu}m$-thick AFL exhibited maximum power densities of 0.246, 0.364, 0.504W/$cm^2$ at 700, 750, 800$^{\circ}C$, respectively.

Diabetes mellitus is a systemic disease with profound effects on oral health and periodontal wound healing. Uncontrolled diabetes adversely affects surgical wound healing and is often associated with abnormal proliferation of fibroblasts. Human gingival fibroblasts and PDL cells were chosen because they are intimately involved in periodontal therapy and are important for the success of surgical procedure such as guided tissue regeneration. The aim of the present study was to elucidate whether cellular activity and collagen synthesis by glucose pre-treated human gingival fibroblasts and PDL cells are influenced by insulin, and whether healthy cells differ from glucose treated cells. Cells were cultured with DMEM at $37^{\circ}C$, 5% $CO_2$, 100% humidified incubator. To evaluate the effect of glucose on gingival fibroblasts and periodontal ligament cells, the cells were seeded at a cell density of $1{\times}10^4\;cells/well$ culture plates and treated with 20 and 50mM of glucose for 5 days. Then MTT assay was carried out. To evaluate the effect of insulin on glucose-pretreated cells, the cells were seeded at a cell density of $1{\times}10^4\;cells/well$ culture plates and treated with 20 and 50mM of glucose for 5 days. After incubation, $10^3$, $10^4$ and $10^5mU/l$ of insulin were also added to the each well and incubated for 2 days, respectively. Then, MTT assay and collagen synthesis assay were carried out. The results indicate that cellular activity of gingival fibroblasts significantly increased by glucose while periodontal ligament cells were unaffected and cellular activity of gingival fibroblasts and periodontal ligament cells were unaffected by insulin. Collagen synthesis of gingival fibroblast with 20mM glucose and insulin unaffected, but 50mM glucose and insulin increased than control. Collagen synthesis of periodontal ligament cell with 20mM glucose and $10^5mU/l$ insulin significantly increased than other groups and 50mM glucose pretreated PDL cells significantly increased at $10^3mU/l$ insulin but decreased at $10^4mU/l$ insulin. Our findings indicated that these cell types differed in their growth response to glucose, and the increase in collagen synthesis was significantly raised at insulin level of $10^3mU/l$ in gingival fibroblasts and periodontal ligament cells except 20mM glucose pretreated periodontal ligament cells.

본 연구는 탈구된 치아의 저장 매체로서 polydeoxyribonucleotide (PDRN)의 적합성을 평가하고자 하였다. HBSS와 10, 25, 50, 100 ㎍/mL 농도의 PDRN 용액과 수돗물에 저장된 인간 치주인대 세포의 생존율을 측정하기 위해 Cell Counting Kit-8 assay와 Live/Dead assay를 시행하였다. 또한, PDRN의 항염증 효과를 평가하기 위한 NO 검출 및 qRT-PCR 실험을 진행하였다. 100 ㎍/mL 농도의 PDRN 용액에 저장된 치주인대 세포의 생존율이 다른 용액보다 유의하게 높았다(p < 0.01). 또한, 100 ㎍/mL 농도의 PDRN 용액은 유의하게 NO의 생산을 줄였다(p < 0.0001). 그리고, HBSS 용액에 비하여 50 및 100 ㎍/mL 농도의 PDRN 용액에서 유의하게 tumor necrosis factor α, interleukin (IL)-4, IL-6, 그리고 IL-10의 발현이 낮았다(p < 0.01). 이 연구를 통해 PDRN은 치주인대 세포에 세포 보존 및 항염증 효과를 가진 것으로 밝혀졌다. 이 연구는 효과적인 탈구치 저장매체의 개발을 위한 향후 추가적인 실험의 기반이 될 수 있을 것이라 생각한다.
