본 연구에서는 성장기 마우스 모델을 이용하여 고지방식 이를 제공한 후 이에 따른 염증지표와 골의 형태학적 미세구조의 변화를 살펴보았다. C57BL/6J 4주령 수컷 마우스를 난괴법에 의해 대조군 (n = 6)과 실험군 (n = 6)로 분류하여 대조군에는 10% Kcal fat 식이와 고지방식이군에는 45% Kcal fat 식이를 12주 동안 자유급식 방법으로 제공하였다. 혈액검사와 염증지표를 분석하였으며 micro-CT를 이용하여 대퇴부 뼈의 형태학적 미세구조를 측정하였다. 대조군과 고지방식이군의 체중 증가는 각각 $5.85{\pm}1.84g$, $16.06{\pm}5.64g$로 유의한 차이를 보였으며 (p < 0.01), 혈당은 각각 $115.00{\pm}16.88mg/dL$, $188.33{\pm}13.29mg/dL$ (p < 0.01), 중성지방은 각각 $65.00{\pm}6.19mg/dL$, $103.33{\pm}8.02mg/dL$ (p < 0.05)로 나타났다. 렙틴과 IL-6는 고지방식이군에서 유의적으로 높게 나타났다 (p < 0.01). 골대사의 생화학적지표 분석 결과 오스테오칼신은 고지방식이군에서 낮게 나타났으나 유의적이지 않았으며, CTx은 고지방식이군에서 유의적으로 높게 나타났다 (p < 0.01). 골밀도는 고지방식이군에서 낮게 나타났으나 유의적인 차이는 보이지 않았다. 그러나 골의 형태학적 미세구조 분석결과 골소주의 두께는 고지방식이 군이 대조군보다 유의적으로 좁게 나타났으며 (p < 0.05), 골소주의 간격은 고지방식이군이 유의적으로 넓게 나타났다 (p < 0.05). 골의 형태학적 미세구조인 골소주의 간격과 IL-6가 양의 상관성이 나타났다 (p < 0.05). 본 연구결과 최대골밀도가 형성되는 단계의 성장기 마우스에서 고지방식이 공급을 통한 비만 유도 현상은 골소주의 수와 골소주가 차지하는 비율의 변화를 유발하여 골 미세구조에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 염증지표와 상관성이 나타났다. 이에 성장기에 염증지표 증가를 억제하고 정상적인 골형성을 위하여 과잉의 지방섭취 제한이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

Ceramics have some properties that are unmatched by other kind of materials like metals or polymers. The ability of high thermal and chemical resistance and in case of being superior in specific mechanical properties makes the ceramic materials suitable for arange of applications. The microstructure and morphology of a material arguably permit the use of many advanced application otherwise difficult to achieve.Porous structures have some important applications in biomedical and environmental field. For human hard tissue reconstruction and augmentation procedure suitable biomaterials are used with a desirable porosity. A range of porous bioceramics were fabricated with tailored design to meet the demand of specific applications. Channeled and interconnected porosity was introduced in alumina, zirconia, and hydroxyapatite or tri calcium phosphate ceramics by different methods like multi-pass extrusion process, bubble formation in viscous slurry,slurry dripping in immiscible liquid, sponge replica method etc. The detailed microstructural and morphological investigations were carried out to establish the unique features of each method and the developed systems. For environmental filters the porous structures were also very important. We investigated a range of channeled and randomly porous silicon based ceramic composites to enhance the material stability and filtration efficiency by taking advantage of the material chemistry of the element. Detailed microstructural and mechanical characterizations were carried out for the fabricated porous filtration systems.

Statement of problem. The long-term success of implants is the development of a stable direct connection between bone and implant surface, which must be structural and functional. To improve a direct implant fixation to the bone, various strategies have been developed focusing on the surface of materials. Among them, altering the surface properties can modify cellular responses such as cell adhesion, cell motility and bone deposition. Purpose. This study was to evaluate the cellular behaviors on the surface-modified titanium by morphological observation, cellular proliferation and differentiation. Material and methods. Specimens were divided into five groups, depending on their surface treatment: electropolishing(EP) anoclizing(AN), machining(MA), blasting with hydroxyapatite particle(RBM) and electrical discharge machining(EDM). Physicochemical properties and microstructures of the specimens were examined and the responses of osteoblast-like cells were investigated. The microtopography of specimens was observed by scanning electron microscopy(SEM). Surface roughness was measured by a three-dimensional roughness measuring system. The microstructure was analyzed by X-ray diffractometer(XRD) and scanning auger electron microscopy(AES). To evaluate cellular responses to modified titanium surfaces, osteoblasts isolated from neonatal rat were cultured. The cellular morphology and total protein amounts of osteoblast-like cell were taken as the marker for cellular proliferation, while the expression of alkaline phosphatase was used as the early differentiation marker for osteoblast. In addition, the type I collagen production was determined to be a reliable indicator of bone matrix synthesis. Results. 1. Each prepared specimen showed specific microtopography at SEM examination. The RBM group had a rough and irregular pattern with reticulated appearance. The EDM-treated surface had evident cracks and was heterogeneous consisting of broad sheet or plate with smooth edges and clusters of small grains, deep pores or craters. 2. Surface roughness values were, from the lowest to the highest, electropolished group, anodized group, machined group, RBM group and EDM group. 3. All groups showed amorphous structures. Especially anodized group was found to have increased surface oxide thickness and EDM group had titaniumcarbide(TiC) structure. 4. Cells on electropolished, anodized and machined surfaces developed flattened cell shape and cells on RBM appeared spherical and EDM showed both. After 14 days, the cells cultured from all groups were formed to be confluent and exhibited multilayer proliferation, often overlapped or stratified. 5. Total protein amounts were formed to be quite similar among all the group at 48 hours. At 14 days, the electropolished group and the anodized group induced more total protein amount than the RBM group(P<.05). 6. There was no significant difference among five groups for alkaline phosphatase(ALP) activity at 48 hours. The AN group showed significantly higher ALP activity than any other groups at 14 days(P<.05). 7. All the groups showed similar collagen synthesis except the EDM group. The amount of collagen on the electropolished and anodized surfaces were higher than that on the EDM surface(P<.05).
