Several growth factors and polypeptides are not commonly yet used for regenerators of bone tissue or alveolar bone because of the insufficiency of studies on their side effects, genetic engineering for mass production and stability for clinical application. Recently, many herbal medicines, which have advantage of less side effects and possibility of long-term use, have been studied for their capacity and effects of anti-bacterial, antiinflammatory and regenerative potential of periodontal tissues. Morindae Radix, Cibotium Barometz (L.), Albizziae Cortex, Cistandhis Herba have been traditionally used as medicines for treatment of bone disease in Eastern medicine. The objective of the present study is to examine the ability of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity of human fetal osteoblast (hFOB1) when several natural medicines were supplemented. hFOB1 were cultured with Dulbecuo's Modified Eagle's Medium Nutrient Mixture F-12 HAM ( DMEM/F-12 1:1 Mixture, Sigma, USA) and negative control, dexamethasone (positive control), and each natural medicines for 3 days. And then ALP activity was measured by spectrophotometer for enzyme activity and Alizarin red S staining for morphometry. Among the natural medicines of this study, Morindae Radix, Cibotium Barometz (L.) and Cistanchis Herba induced higher activity of ALP synthesis than negative controls in all experimental group. Albizziae Cortex showed mild increases than negative control group. According to measurement of positively stained area, all of the natural medicines of this study increased compared to negative control. Especially, Cibotium Barometz (L.) and Cistanchis Herba showed statistical significance compared to negative control (p<0.05). These results indicate that Morindae Radix, Cibotium Barometz (L.), Albizziae Cortex, Cistandhis Herba have an inducing ability of ALP synthesis on osteoblast.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of ICB(Irradiated frozen allogenic bone, Rocky Mountain Tissue Bank, USA) and MTF(Decalcified freeze-dried bone allograft, Musculoskeletal Transplant Foundation, USA) on the cell proliferation and differentiation of human fetal osteoblasts. Human fetal osteoblasts (hFOB1) were cultured with $10\;ng/m{\ell}$of ICB and MTF. The negatvie control group was cultured with DMSO and positive control group was cultured with BMF ($2\;ng/m{\ell}$). MIT was performed to examine the viability of the cell, and alkaline phosphatase activity was analyzed to examine the mineralization. Calcium accumulation was also evaluated. ICB and MTF did not increase the rate of the cellular proliferation of hFOB1s while they enhanced ALP and calcium accumulation. The expression of osteocalcin (OC) and bone silaloprotein (BSP) increased in hFOB1 treated with ICB and MTF ($10\;ng/m{\ell}$). These results suggest that ICB and MTF stimulate osteoblastic activity of the hFOBl.

Osteoblasts from alveolar bone may have an important role in the bone regeneration for periodontium, but their culture and characterization are not determined yet. The purpose of this study was to investigate the biological characteristics of primary explant cultured osteoblasts(PECO) from alveolar bone. Osteoblasts were isolated and cultured from alveolar socket of extracted tooth in children. To compare the characteristics, osteoblasts and gingival fibroblasts were cultured with DMEM at $37^{\circ}C$, 5% $CO_2$, l00% humidity incubator, and human fetal osteoblasts cell line(hFOB1) were cultured with DMEM at $34^{\circ}C$, 5%, $CO_2$ 100% humidity incubator. To characterize the isolated bone cells, morphologic change, cell proliferation and differentiation were measured. Morphology of PECO was small round body or cuboidal shape on inverted microscope and was similar with hFOB1. PECO became polygonal shape with stellate and had an amorphous shape at 9th passage in culture. PECO had significantly higher activity than that of gingival fibroblasts and hFOB1 in alkaline phosphatase activity. The expression of osteocalcin and bone sialoprotein in PECO was notably increased when compared with hFOB1 and gingival fibroblasts. These result indicated that PECO from alveolar bone in children has an obvious characteristics of osteoblast, maybe applied for the regeneration of bone.

Objectives: Bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ) is a side effect of bisphophonate therapy that has been reported in recent years. Osteoclastic inactivity by bisphosphonate is the known cause of BRONJ. Bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) plays an important role in the development of bone. Recombinant human BMP-2 (rhBMP-2) is potentially useful as an activation factor for bone repair. We hypothesized that rhBMP-2 would enhance the osteoclast-osteoblast interaction related to bone remodeling. Materials and Methods: Human fetal osteoblast cells (hFOB 1.19) were treated with $100{\mu}M$ alendronate, and 100 ng/mL rhBMP-2 was added. Cells were incubated for a further 48 hours, and cell viability was measured using an MTT assay. Expression of the three cytokines from osteoblasts, receptor activator of nuclear factor-${\kappa}B$ ligand (RANKL), osteoprotegerin (OPG), and macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF), were analyzed by real-time polymerase chain reaction and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results: Cell viability was decreased to $82.75%{\pm}1.00%$ by alendronate and then increased to $110.43%{\pm}1.35%$ after treatment with rhBMP-2 (P<0.05, respectively). OPG, RANKL, and M-CSF expression were all decreased by alendronate treatment. RANKL and M-CSF expression were increased, but OPG was not significantly affected by rhBMP-2. Conclusion: rhBMP2 does not affect OPG gene expression in hFOB, but it may increase RANKL and M-CSF gene expression.

Background: Oxidative stress occurs during the aging process and other conditions such as bone fracture, bone diseases, and osteoporosis, but the role of oxidative stress in bone remodeling is unknown. Propofol exerts antioxidant effects, but the mechanisms of propofol preconditioning on oxidative stress have not been fully explained. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the protective effects of propofol against $H_2O_2$-induced oxidative stress on a human fetal osteoblast (hFOB) cell line via activation of autophagy. Methods: Cells were randomly divided into the following groups: control cells were incubated in normoxia (5% $CO_2$, 21% $O_2$, and 74% $N_2$) without propofol. Hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$) group cells were exposed to $H_2O_2\;(200{\mu}M)$ for 2 h, propofol preconditioning (PPC)/$H_2O_2$ group cells were pretreated with propofol then exposed to $H_2O_2$, 3-methyladenine (3-MA)/PPC/$H_2O_2$ cells were pretreated with 3-MA (1 mM) and propofol, then were exposed to $H_2O_2$. Cell viability and apoptosis were evaluated. Osteoblast maturation was determined by assaying bone nodular mineralization. Expression levels of bone related proteins were determined by western blot. Results: Cell viability and bone nodular mineralization were decreased significantly by $H_2O_2$, and this effect was rescued by propofol preconditioning. Propofol preconditioning effectively decreased $H_2O_2$-induced hFOB cell apoptosis. However, pretreatment with 3-MA inhibited the protective effect of propofol. In western blot analysis, propofol preconditioning increased protein levels of collagen type I, BMP-2, osterix, and TGF-${\beta}1$. Conclusions: This study suggests that propofol preconditioning has a protective effect on $H_2O_2$-induced hFOB cell death, which is mediated by autophagy activation.

Background: Bone injury is common in many clinical situations, such as surgery or trauma. During surgery, excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) production decreases the quality and quantity of osteoblasts. Remifentanil decreases ROS production, reducing oxidative stress and the inflammatory response. We investigated remifentanil's protective effects against $H_2O_2$-induced oxidative stress in osteoblasts. Methods: To investigate the effect of remifentanil on human fetal osteoblast (hFOB) cells, the cells were incubated with 1 ng/ml of remifentanil for 2 h before exposure to $H_2O_2$. For induction of oxidative stress, hFOB cells were then treated with $200{\mu}M$ $H_2O_2$ for 2 h. To evaluate the effect on autophagy, a separate group of cells were incubated with 1 mM 3-methyladenine (3-MA) before treatment with remifentanil and $H_2O_2$. Cell viability and apoptotic cell death were determined via MTT assay and Hoechst staining, respectively. Mineralized matrix formation was visualized using alizarin red S staining. Western blot analysis was used to determine the expression levels of bone-related genes. Results: Cell viability and mineralized matrix formation increased on remifentanil pretreatment before exposure to $H_2O_2$-induced oxidative stress. As determined via western blot analysis, remifentanil pretreatment increased the expression of bone-related genes (Col I, BMP-2, osterix, and $TGF-{\beta}$). However, pretreatment with 3-MA before exposure to remifentanil and $H_2O_2$ inhibited remifentanil's protective effects on hFOB cells during oxidative stress. Conclusions: We showed that remifentanil prevents oxidative damage in hFOB cells via a mechanism that may be highly related to autophagy. Further clinical studies are required to investigate its potential as a therapeutic agent.

DFDBA(Decalcified freeze-dried bone allograft) is one of the allograft materials for periodontal bone regeneration. DFDBA provides an osteoconductive surface and osteoinductive factors. Therefore, DFDBA have been used successfully to regenerate the attachment apparatus during periodontal treatment. But recent studies was reported that wide variations in commercial bone bank preparations of DFDBA do exist, including the ability to induce new bone formation. DFDBA was experimental materials that was recovered, processed, tested, shipped and invoiced through Musculoskeletal Transplant Foundation. MTF(Musculoskeletal Transplant Foundation) is the world largest, non-profit, AATB(American Association of Tissue Banks) accredited tissue bank. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of serial dilutions of a DFDBA on human fetal osteoblastic cell proliferation and their potential to form and mineralize bone nodules. Human fetal osteoblastic cell line(hFOB 1.19) was cultured with DMEM and SSE($1{\mu}g/m{\ell}$,$10{\mu}g/m{\ell}$, $100{\mu}g/m{\ell}$, $1mg/m{\ell}$) at $34^{\circ}C$ with 5% CO2 in 100% humidity. Cell proliferation was significantly increased at $1mg/m{\ell}$, $100{\mu}g$, $10{\mu}g/m{\ell}$, $1{\mu}g/m{\ell}$, $100ng/m{\ell}$, $10ng/m{\ell}$, $1ng/m{\ell}$ of DFDBA after 5 days incubation (p<0.05). Alkaline Phosphatase(ALP) level was significantly increased in $100ng/m{\ell}$, $10ng/m{\ell}$, $1ng/m{\ell}$ of DFDABA(p<0.05). A quantified calcium accumulation was significantly increased at $1ng/m{\ell}$, $10ng/m{\ell}$ of MTF(p<0.05). These results indicated that DFDBA has an inductive effect on bone formation in vitro.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of irradiated frozen allogenic bone(IFAB) on the cell proliferation and differentiation of human fetal osteoblasts. Human fetal osteoblasts(hFOB1) were cultured to examine the cellular proliferation for 3 days and 5 days with $1mg/m{\ell}$, $100{\mu}g/m{\ell}$, $10{\mu}g/m{\ell}$, $1{\mu}g/m{\ell}$, $100ng/m{\ell}$, $10ng/m{\ell}$, $1ng/m{\ell}$ of IFAB, and to compare the ALP synthesis to control groups for 3 days with DMEM/F-12 1:1 Mixture and $1mg/m{\ell}$, $100{\mu}g/m{\ell}$, $10{\mu}g/m{\ell}$, $1{\mu}g/m{\ell}$, $100ng/m{\ell}$, $10ng/m{\ell}$, $1ng/m{\ell}$ of IFAB. To compare the calcium accumulation, hFOBl cultured for 23 days were quantified and photographed. The cellular proliferation of hFOBls treated with IFAB was increased at 5 days to control(p<0.05). The activity of ALP in hFOBls treated with $100ng/m{\ell}$ IFAB was significantly increased at 5 days(p<0.05). A quantified calcium accumulation in hFOBl was significantly increased at $100ng/m{\ell}$, $10ng/m{\ell}$ of IFAB(p<0.05). In the present study, we found that IFAB playa important role of bone formation in the early stage. There was considered that IFAB could be used in the bone graft material.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the synergic effect of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) and low-level laser therapy (LLLT) on bisphosphonate-treated osteoblasts. Materials and Methods: Human fetal osteoblast cells (hFOB 1.19) were cultured with $100{\mu}M$ alendronate. Low-level Ga-Al-As laser alone or with 100 ng/mL rhBMP-2 was then applied. Cell viability was measured with MTT assay. The expression levels of receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL), macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF), and osteoprotegerin (OPG) were analyzed for osteoblastic activity inducing osteoclastic activity. Collagen type and transforming growth factor beta-1 were also evaluated for bone matrix formation. Results: The results showed that rhBMP-2 and LLLT had a synergic effect on alendronate-treated osteoblasts for enhancing osteoblastic activity and bone matrix formation. Between rhBMP-2 and LLLT, rhBMP-2 exhibited a greater effect, but did not show a significant difference. Conclusion: rhBMP-2 and LLLT have synergic effects on bisphosphonate-treated osteoblasts through enhancement of osteoblastic activity and bone formation activity.
