The 3 beagle dogs aged over one and half years and weighed 14 to 16 Kg were utilized in this study. Horizontal furcation defects were induced around 3rd, and 4th premolars bilaterally. BMP-4 in conjunction with EGF and BMP-4 only were applied in the right and left premolars respectively. 1 animal was sacrificed at 2nd week, 4th week, and 8th week, after regenerative surgery respectively. Semi-thin sections using glass-knife were stained with hematoxylin- eosin and trichrome for light microscopic study. The results were as follows : 1 . The long junctional epithelial downgrowth was observed in both area applied with BMP-4 and with BMP-4 and EGF at 2nd week after the surgery. 2 . The extensive regeneration of new bone and cementum was appeared at 4th week and the maturation of bone was observed at 8th week in both area applied with BMP-4 and with BMP-4 and EGF. 3 . The root ankylosis and resorption was presented along the exposed root surface at the coronal 1/3 of defect in the BMP-4 applied site, but it was not shown in the site applied with BMP-4 in conjunction with EGF at the 4th week. At 8th week, the root ankylosis was apparently appeared in the BMP-4 and EGF applied site as well as in the BMP-4 applied site. 4 . The periodontal ligament tissue including Sharpey's fiber inserted into cementum and alveolar bone, was formed along the exposed root surface in the area applied with BMP-4 only, but in the site applied with BMP-4 and EGF, the collagen fiber running parallel to the root surface without Sharpey's fiber, was observed in the periodontal ligament space at 4th and 8th week. Within the above results, BMP-4 had the remarkable capability to regenerate the periodontal tissue and EGF had possibility to prevent from the root ankylosis. Therefore, growth factors including BMP-4 and EGF may have the strong possibility to be utilized in the clinical periodontal treatments.

The modulation of leukocyte cell surface adhesion molecules may influence the development of cellular events that determine the course of the inflammatory process. Direct interaction between activated T cells and monocytes resulted in a large production of $IL-1{\beta}$ by monocytes. In this reactions, adhesion molecules play an important part, yet the role of them in Tmonocytes interaction remain unclear. This study was undertaken in an effort to elucidate, 1) the influence of 1.25(OH)$_2D_3-induced$ differentiation on the monocyte responsiveness to direct contact with T lymphocytes, and 2) the role of adhesion molecules on the T-monocyte direct interaction. Initially, I observed that direct contact of monocyte cell line THP-1 with stimulated fixed T cell line HuT78 markedly induces IL-1${\beta}$ production by THP-1. $IL-1{\beta}$ production was higher when THP-1 had been previously exposed to 1.25(OH)$_2D_3$ as compared to control, with ${\alpha}$- 1.25(OH)$_2D_3$ dose-dependent and exposure time-dependent manner. It was shown that 1.25(OH)$_2D_3$ also increased the expression of ${\beta}_2$ integrin adhesion receptor Mac-1(CD11b/CD18) dose- and timedependently, but did not increase the expression of human leukocyte antigen- D(HLA-D) and intercellular adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1). The $IL-1{\beta}$ producing activity of THP-1 cells correlated well with the ability to induce the Mac-1 expression on THP-1 surface. Monoclonal antibody raised against relevant cell surface glycoproteins on THP-1 were tested for their ability to block the response of THP-1 to T cells. Antibody to Mac-1 only partially blocked $IL-1{\beta}$ production by THP-1, whereas antibodies to ICAM-1 and HLA-D did not. These data indicate that regulation of Mac-1 expression on THP-1 cells can alter the responsiveness of these cells to contact by activated T cells, however other unknown structures on the THP-1 cells may be involved in this process also.

Titanium and its alloys are widely used as implants in orthopedics, dentistry and cardiology due to their outstanding properties, such as high strength, high level of hemocompatibility and enhanced biocompatibility. Hence, recent works showed that the synthesis of new Ti-based alloys for implant application involves more biocompatible metallic alloying element, such as, Nb, Hf, Zr and Mo. In particular, Nb and Hf are one of the most effective Ti ${\beta}-stabilizer$ and reducing the elastic modulus. Plasma electrolyte oxidation (PEO) is known as excellent method in the biocompatibility of biomaterial due to quickly coating time and controlled coating condition. The anodized oxide layer and diameter modulation of Ti alloys can be obtained function of improvement of cell adhesion. Silicon (Si) and magnesium (Mg) has a beneficial effect on bone. Si in particular has been found to be essential for normal bone and cartilage growth and development. In vitro studies have shown that Mg plays very important roles in essential for normal growth and metabolism of skeletal tissue in vertebrates and can be detected as minor constituents in teeth and bone. The aim of this study is to research Si and Mg doped hydroxyapatite film formation by plasma electrolytic oxidation. Ti-29Nb-xHf (x= 0, 3, 7 and 15wt%, mass fraction) alloys were prepared Ti-29Nb-xHf alloys of containing Hf up from 0 wt% to 15 wt% were melted by using a vacuum furnace. Ti-29Nb-xHf alloys were homogenized for 2 hr at $1050^{\circ}C$. Each alloy was anodized in solution containing typically 0.15 M calcium acetate monohydrate + 0.02 M calcium glycerophosphate at room temperature. A direct current power source was used for the process of anodization. Anodized alloys was prepared using 270V~300V anodization voltage at room. A Si and Mg coating was produced by RF-magnetron sputtering system. RF power of 100W was applied to the target for 1h at room temperature. The microstructure, phase and composition of Si and Mg coated oxide surface of Ti-29Nb-xHf alloys were examined by FE-SEM, EDS, and XRD.

Commercially pure titanium (CP Ti) and Ti-6Al-4V alloys have been widely used for biomedical applications. However, the use of the Ti-6Al-4V alloy in biomaterial is then a subject of controversy because aluminum ions and vanadium oxide have potential detrimental influence on the human body due to vanadium and aluminum. Hence, recent works showed that the synthesis of new Ti-based alloys for implant application involves more biocompatible metallic alloying element, such as, Nb, Hf, Zr and Mo. In particular, Nb and Hf are one of the most effective Ti ${\beta}-stabilizer$ and reducing the elastic modulus. Plasma electrolyte oxidation (PEO) is known as excellent method in the biocompatibility of biomaterial due to quickly coating time and controlled coating condition. The anodized oxide layer and diameter modulation of Ti alloys can be obtained function of improvement of cell adhesion. Manganese(Mn) plays very important roles in essential for normal growth and metabolism of skeletal tissue in vertebrates and can be detected as minor constituents in teeth and bone. Radio frequency(RF) magnetron sputtering in the various PVD methods has high deposition rates, high-purity films, extremely high adhesion of films, and excellent uniform layers for depositing a wide range of materials, including metals, alloys and ceramics like a hydroxyapatite. The aim of this study is to research the Mn coatings on the micro-pore formed Ti-29Nb-xHf alloys by RF-magnetron sputtering for dental applications. Ti-29Nb-xHf (x= 0, 3, 7 and 15wt%, mass fraction) alloys were prepared Ti-29Nb-xHf alloys of containing Hf up from 0 wt% to 15 wt% were melted by using a vacuum furnace.

The goal of Periodontal treatment is predictable periodontal regeneration. But until now, many products including GTR materials and growth factors are beyond of complete regeneration. BMP can induce ectopic bone formation when implanted into sites such as rat muscle and can greatly enhance healing of bony defects when applied exogenously. BMP can promote periodontal regeneration by their ability to stimulate new bone and new cementum formation. But little is known about optimal conditions required for the application. Root conditioning is used for bioacive root change so altered root surface provides a substrate that promotes chemotaxis, migration and attachment of peridontal cells encouraging connective attachment to the denuded root surface. The aim of this study is to investigate whether the acid conditioning change effect of rhBMP-2 on human periodontal ligament cell and osteoblast cell line. 288 periodontally involved root dentin slices are divided into 6 groups, each 48, 1)control, 2)treated with BMP, 3)treated with citric acid 4)treated with citric acid+BMP 5)treated with tetracycline 6)treated with TC+BMP. Each group was devided half, so 12 root dentin slices were seeded with periodontal ligament cells and 12 were seeded with osteoblasts. At day 2 and 7, cell number, protein assay, ALP activitiy was measured. To investigate morphology of cultured cells, SEM was employed. Statistical analysis was performed with SPSS 8.0 either t-test or ANOVA test. The results are ; Protein assay and cell number was slightly decreased in CA+BMP group compared to Ca group but it was not statistically significant and ALP activity was much more increased in CA+BMP group compared to CA group so there was no statistically significance between BMP and CA+BMP group and statistically significant compared to control group. Cell number and protein assay was slightly increased in TC group and ALP activity was much less the BMP group and CA group. Cell number and protein and ALP activity was not much increased in TC+BMP group. TC group and TC+BMP group showed cell morphology change in SEM. This results suggested that application of root surface with citric acid before BMP treatment might give better result in periodontal regeneration.

It is becoming increasingly clear that human gingival fibroblasts(HGF) may play a role in regulating immune responsiveness in inflammatory periodontal lesions. Stimulation of HGF with locally-secreted T cell cytokine $IFN_{\gamma}$ induces human leukocyte antigen class II(HLA II) expression on HGF, which is one of the characteristic feature of professional antigen presenting cells(pAPC). However, $IFN_{\gamma}$-treated HGF and other nonprofessional antigen presenting cells(npAPC) are known to be ineffective or less effective antigen presenter to resting T cells. This study, therefore, was undertaken in an effort to elucidate the differences in expression of cell surface molecules between npAPC in periodontal tissues, such as HGF and periodontal ligament fibroblasts(PDLF), and pAPC such as monocytes/macrophages. Using flow cytometry, the levels of cell surface expression of HLA-D, ICAM-1, LFA-3, and B7-1, which are involved in antigen presentation, were determined in HGF, PDLF and human myelomonocytic cell line THP-1. $IFN_{\gamma}$ clearly induced HLA-D expression on both of fibroblasts and monocytes dose dependently. However, expression level on monocytes were 4 to 5 times higher than that on fibroblasts, and induction rate was faster in monocytes than in fibroblasts. The levels of ICAM-1 expression on fibroblasts and monocytes were enhanced by $IFN_{\gamma}$ in a dose dependent manner. On the other hand, the expression of LFA-3 molecule, which could be detected in fibroblasts and monocytes without cytokine stimulation, was no more enhanced by addition of $IFN_{\gamma}$. B7-1, important costimulatory molecule in T cell activation and proliferation, was not detected on both of fibroblasts and monocytes even when stimulated with $IFN_{\gamma}$, except on monocytes fully differentiated by pretreatment of PMA and treated by $IFN_{\gamma}$. These results suggest that delayed expression of HLA-D and absence of B7-1 on $IFN_{\gamma}$ - treated fibroblasts may at least in part be involved in the ineffectiveness of fibroblasts as primary APC. And it is postulated that although periodontal fibroblasts may not serve as primary APC in normal periodontium, sustained expression of HLA II on ubiquitous fibroblasts in inflammatory lesions may perpetuate immune responses and produce chronic inflammation and tissue injury.

Periodontal pocket is one of the most frequently developed clinical feature on the teeth with periodontal disease. In order to determine the gingival curettage effect of intrapocket irradiation of a pulsed Nd : YAG laser on periodontally involved teeth, bilateral 60 teeth with $4{\sim}6mm$ in probing pocket depth 1 week after supragingival scaling were selected. On half of them the intrapocket irradiation($300{\mu}m$ fiber optic, 1.5W power, for 2min.) of a pulsed-Nd : YAG laser(EL.EN.EN06O, Italy) was applied as the lased group. On the contralateral 30 teeth the subgingival curettage was accomplished by Gracey curettes as the curattage group. The periodontal pocket tissues were surgically excised by the modified Widman flap technique immediately after the intrapocket irradiation or subgingival curettage, subsequently fixed with 10% neutral formalin, sectioned in $4{\sim}6{\mu}m$ thickness, and stained with hematoxylin-eosin. Surface characteristics and incomplete removal of the pocket epithelium were evaluated under light microscope. And the difference between the lased group and the curettage group was statistically analyzed by Chi-square test in Microstat program. The results were as follows ; 1. The plane surface was observed more frequently in the curettage group(73.3%) than in the lased group(23.3%), and the rough surface was observed more frequently in the lased grOoup(63.3%) than in the curettage group(6.7%)(p<0.05). 2. The rate of incomplete removal of the pocket epithelium was relatively high in both the lased group(76.6%) and the curettage group(86.6%), and there was no significant difference between the lased group and the curettage group(p>0.l). The results suggest that the further studies including various power control of laser should be succeeded in order to obtain more favorable results by the intrapocket irradiation of a pulsed Nd:YAG laser than the subgingival curettage with Gracey curettes.

연구 목적: 본 연구는 서로 다른 세가지 블라스팅 처리를 한 티타늄 디스크에$Nd:YVO_4$ 레이저 조사 조건을 달리한 후 조사하여 티타늄의 표면 거칠기 및 표면 변화를 관찰하기 위함이다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 디스크 형태의 상용 순수 티타늄 시편을 30개 준비하여 시료 표면을 각각 10개씩 $ZrO_2$ (zirconium dioxide), $Al_2O_3$ (aluminium oxide), RBM (resorbable blasted media)으로 블라스팅(blasting)하고 초음파 세척하였다. $Nd:YVO_4$ 레이저(Laser Pro D-20, Laserval $Korea^{(R)}$, Seoul, South Korea)에서 주사속도(100, 300, 500 mm/s)와 시간당 진동량(반복률) (5, 15, 35 kHz)을 다르게 하여 9가지 조건을 설정하였다. 레이저 조사 후 주사전자현미경, X-선 회절 분석 및 에너지 분산X선 분광분석, 표면 거칠기 분석을 통해 각 시편을 평가하고 분석하였다. 결과: 주사전자현미경의 결과 레이저 조사를 시행하지 않은 티타늄 표면은 방향성이 없는 불규칙한 형상을 보였고 레이저 조사를 처리한 시편은 특징적인 형태가 관찰되었다. X-선회절분석결과$ZrO_2$, RBM 의 고유피크는 관찰되지 않았으나 $Al_2O_3$분사한 군에서는 알루미나의 고유 피크가 관찰되었다. 에너지 분산X선 분광분석을 통해 관찰한 티타늄의 산화도 경향성과 표면 거칠기는 유사하였다. 표면 거칠기는 주사속도와 반복률에 따른 차이를 보였다(P<.05). 결론: 레이저 조사 조건에 따라 티타늄 디스크의 미세구조와 표면 거칠기가 변화되었다. 레이저 조사는 골유착을 증진시키기 위한 임플란트 표면을 변화시키는 방법중의 하나로 여길 수 있을 것이다.

본 연구는 miniplate(Titanium C-tube, Martin Co., Germany)를 교정적 고정원으로 사용하여 교정력 및 악정형력을 즉시 가했을 때 miniplate의 안정성 및 주위 조직 반응을 관찰하여 고정원으로서의 유용성을 밝히고자 시행되었다. 네 마리의 비글 성견을 대상으로 하악의 좌우 협측 제3소구치와 제4소구치 사이에 두개의 titanium miniscrew(직경 2.0mm, 길이 7.0mm)에 의해 고정되는 miniplate를 식립하여 15주 동안 200-250gm의 힘을 가한 교정력 적용군과 8주 동안 400-450gm의 힘을 가한 악정형력 적용군으로 분류하였고 대조군은 제4소구치와 제1대구치사이에 식립하고 힘을 가하지 않았다. 동요도는 식립 직후와 희생 직전에 측정하여 비교하였고 희생 후 제작된 조직 절편을 방사선적으로 검사하여 주위 골의 흡수 여부를 관찰하였다. 실험 동물은 관류 고정하고 조직 절편은 레진 포매하여 비탈회 경조직 표본을 제작하였다 miniplate 제거 후의 조직의 치유와 연조직의 관찰을 위해 일부 조직편은 탈회 표본으로 제작하였다. 표본은 H&E 염색 후 광학 현미경하에서 검경하였고 위의 실험내용을 통해 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 교정력과 악정형력을 적용한 두 그룹 모두 miniscrew와 골간의 계면에는 직접적인 골유착이 일어났다. 힘의 크기에 따른 차이는 관찰되지 않았고, 힘의 적용기간이 증가함에 따라 골침착이 증가되었으며, 하중이 가해지지 않은 대조군이 실험군에 비해 골조직이 덜 침착되었다. 2. Miruplate와 miniscrew를 피개하고 있는 연조직은 염증소견 없이 모두 치유가 잘 일어났다. 3. 모든 실험군에서 동요도는 발생되지 않았고, 하중이 가해지지 않은 대조군의 경우 경미한 동요도를 보였으며, 교합력이 직접 가해진 대조군에서 고정원이 탈락될 정도의 동요도를 보였다. 4. Miniscrew 제거 후의 연조직 및 경조직은 정상조직의 형태와 구조로 치유되었다. 이상의 결과로 miniplate(Titanium C-tube, Martin Co., Germany)는 식립 즉시 악정형력 정도의 힘까지 수용할 수 있고, 인접 조직에 자극이 적은 골내 고정원으로서 충분한 가치가 있다고 판단되어 진다.

1983년 5월부터 1989년 9월까지 본 영남의료원 정형외과에 대퇴골 간부골절시 사용한 금속 내 고정물의 금속 부전으로 입원한 경우 중 부전된 금속의 표면관찰이 가능한 8례에 대한 임상적 고찰 및 부전된 금속 파손 표면의 관찰을 통해 확인한 파손 원인을 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 금속 부전이 발생 내고정물의 종류는 압박금속판 5례, Jewett nail 1례, Rowe plate screw 1례, interlocking nail 1례였다. 2. 금속 부전의 임상적 추정에 의한 원인으로는 반대편 피질골 결손 5례, 부적절한 위치선정 1례 및 부적절한 금속선택 1례였다. 3. 금속 내고정후 금속 부전이 되기까지의 기간을 보면, 4개월이 1례, 6개월에서 12개월 사이가 6례, 3년이 1례였다. 4. 부전된 내고정물의 파손면 관찰을 통해 확인한 금속부전의 원인을 보면, 첫째, impact failure 1례 둘째, fatigue failure 6례 machining mark가 있어 이것이 stress riser로서 역할을 한 것으로 보이는 경우가 4례였으며, 이의 형태는 low consistent cyclic fatigue failure와 irregular cyclic fatigue failure의 형태를 관찰할 수 있었다. 셋째, Stress corrosion crack 1례를 관찰할 수 있었다. 5. 316L Stainless Steel은 내부식성이 좋은 금속이지만 fretting에 의해 특유의 부동태 피막이 손상되면 pitting corrosion을 일으키며 경우에 따라서는 파손의 기점으로 작용되어 failure의 주요 원인이 되기도 한다. 6. screw hole의 가공시 기계에 의한 손상 및 기구(implant) 제조 과정중 손상이 plate의 failure를 유발하는 중요한 원인이 될 수도 있다. 기계에 의한 손상은 응력을 집중시키므로 plate가 파손되기 쉽게 한다. 이상의 결과 임상적 추정에 의한 원인 이외에도 부전된 금속파손면 관찰을 통해 중요한 다른 원인을 찾을 수 있었으므로, 금속부전의 예방을 위해 앞으로 이 방향으로의 계속적인 연구가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.
