Taurine is present in a variety of tissue and exhibits many important physiological functions in the cell. Although it is known that many tissues mediate taurine transport, its functions of taurine transport in bone have not been identified yet. In the present study, we investigated the expression of taurine transporter (TauT) and taurine uptake using mouse stromal ST2 cells and osteoblast-like MC3T3-E1 cells, which is bone related cells. Detection of TauT MRNA expression in these cells were performed by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). (omitted)

Background: The aim of this study is to verify the feasibility of using silk fibroin (SF) as a potential membrane for guided bone regeneration (GBR). Methods: Various cellular responses (i.e., cell attachment, viability, and proliferation) of osteoblast-like MG63 cells cultured on an SF membrane were quantified. After culturing on an SF membrane for 1, 5, and 7 days, the attachment and surface morphology of MG63 cells were examined by optical and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), cell viability was determined using a 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, and cell proliferation was quantified using 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) fluorescence staining. Results: Optical microscopy revealed that MG63 cells cultured on the SF membrane proliferated over the 7-day observation period. The viability of cells cultured on SF membranes (SF group) and on control surfaces (control group) increased over time (P < 0.05); however, at respective time points, cell viability was not significantly different between the two groups (P > 0.05). In contrast, cell proliferation was significantly higher in the SF membrane group than in the control group at 7 days (P < 0.05). Conclusions: These results suggest that silk fibroin is a biocompatible material that could be used as a suitable alternative barrier membrane for GBR.

Several factors can affect the formation of bone tissues surrounding implants. One of the factors is electrical stimulation. It is known to change the movement of cells, form and destroy cells, and alter concentration and chemical component of soft tissues and bones. The effect of electrical stimulation on bone formation can vary according to the intensity of electric currents, stimulating time, the method of sending electric currents, and tissues and cells currents are applied to. This study examines how various enviroments affect osteoblasts. (1) effect on osteoblast with varying intensity of currents Osteoblast-like cells were raised on four plates where implants can be placed. A constant current sink (MC3T3-E1) that can adjust the intensity and stimulating time of electric currents was used. The four plates were stimulated with $0{\mu}A$, $10{\mu}A$, $20{\mu}A$, and $40{\mu}A$, respectively. After 24 hours of stimulation, the number and distribution of cells surrounding implants were examined. (2) effect on osteoblast with varying conditions The 3 study was performed with same method. (1) The change of attached cell number 72-hour after application of various currents (2) The change of attached cell number 72-hour after application of various interval (3) The comparison of attached cell number by implant surface texture The following are the results: 1. The distribution and density of cells surrounding implant is highest under the intensity of electric currents of $20{\mu}A$. 2. The number of cells attached implants is highest under the intensity of electric currents of $20{\mu}A$. 3. The number of cells attached implants is highest under continous electric currents 4. The number of cells attached implants is not different by implant surface texture.

A variety of titanium (Ti) and its alloys are used in the clinical procedures of bone regeneration for periodontal and dental implant therapies. This study was performed to determine the effect of different surface dental implant materials on biologic responses of a MG-63 human osteoblast-like cell line. MG-63 cells were cultured on Ti coated with hydroxyapatite (HA), calcium metaphosphate (CMP), anodized (A), which compared with non-coated Ti (control). The appearances of surface of dental implant materials and the morphology of these cells were assessed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The gene expression profiles of MG-63 cells cultured on Ti were examined by human cDNA microarray (1,152 elements). The expression of several genes was up- and down-regulated by different surfaces of dental implant materials. Interesting, the genes correlated with cellular adhesion and extra cellular matrix (ECM) formation were enhanced, in accordance surface morphology of the dental implant materials used.

The success of an implant is determined by its integration into the tissue surrounding the biomaterial. Surface roughness is considered to influence the behavior of adherent cells. The aim of this in vitro study was to determine the effect of surface roughness on Saos-2 osteoblast-like cells. Titanium disks, blasted with $75{\mu}m$ aluminum oxide particles and anodic oxidized and machined titanium disks were prepared. Saos-2 were plated on the disks at a density of 50,000 cells per well in 48-well dishes. After 1 hour, 1 day, 6 days cell numbers were counted. One day, 6 days after plating, alkaline phosphatase(ALPase) activity was determined. Compared to experimental groups, the number of cells was significantly higher on control group. The stimulatory effect of surface roughness on ALPase was more pronounced on the experimental groups than on control group. These results demonstrate that surface roughness alters proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts. The results also suggest that implant surface roughness may play a role in determining phenotypic expression of cells.

Objective: This study examined the potential of the in vitro osteogenesis of microtopographically modified surfaces, RBM (resorbable blasting media) surfaces, which generate hydroxyapatite grit-blasting. Methods: RBM surfaces were modified hydroxyapatite grit-blasting to produce microtopographically modified surfaces and the surface morphology, roughness or elements were examined. To investigate the potential of the in vitro osteogenesis, the osteoblastic cell adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation were examined using the human osteoblast-like cell line, MG-63 cells. Osteoblastic cell proliferation was examined as a function of time. In addition, osteoblastic cell differentiation was verified using four different methods of an ALP activity assay, a mineralization assay using alizarin red-s staining, and gene expression of osteoblastic differentiation marker using RT-PCR or ELISA. Results: Osteoblastic cell adhesion, proliferation and ALP activity was elevated on the RBM surfaces compared to the machined group. The cells exhibited a high level of gene expression of the osteoblastic differentiation makers (osteonectin, type I collagen, Runx-2, osterix). imilar data was represented in the ELISA produced similar results in that the RBM surface increased the level of osteocalcin, osteopontin, TGF-beta1 and PGE2 secretion, which was known to stimulate the osteogenesis. Moreover, alizarin red-s staining revealed significantly more mineralized nodules on the RBM surfaces than the machined discs. Conclusion: RBM surfaces modified with hydroxyapatite grit-blasting stimulate the in vitro osteogenesis of MG-63 cells and may accelerate bone formation and increase bone-implant contact.

Methanol extract (MeOH), n-hexane (Hx), chloroform ($CHCl_3$), ethyl acetate (EA), butanol (BuOH) and aqueous ($H_2O$) fractions of Eucommiae Cortex including geniposidic acid (GA), geniposide (GP) and aucubin (AU) were tested for their therapeutic efficacy on osteoporosis. The contents of GA, GP and AU in the cortex and leaf of Eucommia ulmoides Oliver were quantified by HPLC. The effect of Eucommiae Cortex on the induction of growth hormone (GH) release was studied by using rat pituitary cells. The proliferation of osteoblast-like cells increased by herbal extracts was assayed using a tetrazolium (MTT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, and [$^3H$]-proline incorporation assays. The inhibition of osteoclast was studied by using the coculture of mouse bone marrow cells and ST-2 cells. As a result, the GA, GP and AU were present in the cortex more than in the leaf of E. ulmoides Oliver. The MeOH (1mg/mL), Hx, $CHCl_3$ and EA fractions (each 20 $\mu$ g/mL) had potent induction of GH release. The $CHCl_3$ exhibited the potent proliferation of osteoblasts. The AU, GP and GA were increased proliferation of osteoblasts. In addition, GA ($IC_{50}: 4.43{\times}10^{-7}$M), AU and GP were significantly inhibited proliferation of osteoclast. In summary, it is thought that the components in a part of the fractions of Eucommiae Cortex participate in each step of mechanism for activating osteoblast to facilitate osteogenesis, and suppress osteoclast activity to inhibit osteolysis.

본 연구에서는 인체 골종양에서 유래한 G292세포를 이용하여 압력으로 세포막을 신장(stretch)시켰을 때 $K^+$통로의 전기적 찰성 변화를 연구하였다. 배양된 세포에서 유골전극을 이용하여 세포막 내측이 유리전극의 외부로 향하도록 inside-out patch를 얻어 단일이온통로전류를 막전압고정법 (patch clamp recording)으로 기록하였다. G292세포의 세포막 내외에 140 mM KCl 용액이 있는 상태에서 유리전극내 전압을 -80 mV로 고정했을 때 전도성이 $270\pm27\;pS,\;113\pm12\;pS,\;48\pm8\;pS$인 3가지 종류의 $K^+$통로를 관찰하였다. 전도성이 낮은 48 pS의 $K^+$통로는 모든 세포막에서 관찰하였으며 270 pS 및 113 pS의 $K^+$ 통로는 일부 세포에서만 관찰하였다. 48 pS의 $K^+$통로는 세포막 외측에 음의 전압을 가하면 활성화되고 양의 전압을 가하면 활성화되지 않는 외향성 정류특성을 보였다. 세포막 외측에 음압을 가하면 48 pS의 $K^+$통로는 활성화되었으며 이온 통로가 열리는 확률($P_{open}$)이 가하는 압력에 비례하여 증가하였다. 이러한 결과는 G292세포주에 3가지 종류의 $K^+$통로가 존재하며 전도성이 낮은 48 pS의 $K^+$통로만이 세포막 신장에 의하여 직접적으로 활성화되는 특성을 보였다. 이러한 $K^+$ 통로의 활성화는 세포가 기계적 자극을 받아 세포막이 신장되면 세포막전압을 과분극시키며 조골세포에서 기계적 감수기로서의 기능을 수행하여 조골세포의 골개조에 관여할 것으로 추측된다.순에서는 수술 후 잉여 연조직에 의한 두께의 증가가 나타나고 상순에서는 구륜근에 의한 장력에 의해 상순의 두께가 감소하였다가 보정 기간 후 새로운 악골 위치로 적응하는 것으로 생각된다.다. 5. II급고무줄과 수직고무줄 적용 시를 비교해 보면 수직고무줄 장착시 전치부 치근막에 인장력이 더 넓게, 그 크기는 더 작게 나타났다. 반면에 구치부 치근막에 나타나는 응력의 분포와 크기는 별 차이를 보이지 않았다. 5. 전치부 치근막 인장부위에서 인장력은 견치에서 제일 컸다.상적 제1대구치간 치열궁 폭경의 예측이 1 mm의 오차한계 이내로 예측된 경우는 Cha 들의 예측식이 $40\%$ 로 가장 높으며, Pont와 Schmuth의 예측식은 각각 $29\%$와 $13\%$ 이었다. 이상의 결과는 상악 절치의 근원심 폭경의 합으로부터 이상적 제1소구치간 치열궁 폭경 및 제1대구치간 치열궁 폭경을 예측하는 것은 임상적 신뢰성이 낮을 것임을 시사한다.교정력을 효과적으로 전체 치열로 전달할 수 있는 독특한 기계적 특성을 지니고 있는 것으로 생각된다..7. 구순 반흔 제거수술시기로는 4-6세군 ($27.5\%$), 6-8세군 ($19.6\%$), 2-4세군 ($13.7\%$)이 $60\%$이상을 차지하여 초등학교 취학 전에 구순의 반흔을 제거하려 함을 알 수 있었다. 8. 비변형 교정수술시기로는 0-2세군 ($7.1\%$), 2-4세군 ($14.3\%$), 4-6세군 ($21.4\%$), 6-8세군 ($14.3\%$)으로 초등학교 취학이전이 $57.1\%$로서 최근의 조기 치료경향을 반영하는 것으로 보인다.

Tissue engineered bone (TEB) can replace an autogenous bone graft requiring an secondary operation site as well as avoid complications like inflammation or infection from xenogenic or synthetic bone graft. Adult mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) for TEB are considered to have various ranges of differentiation capacity or multipotency by the donor site and age. This study examined the effect of age on proliferation capacity, differentiation capacity and bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) responsiveness of human bone marrow stromal cells (hBMSC) according to the age. In addition, to evaluate the effect on enhancement for osteoblast differentiation, the hBMSC were treated with Trichostatin A (TSA) and 5-Azacitidine (5-AZC) which was HDAC inhibitors and methyltransferase inhibitors respectively affecting chromatin remodeling temporarily and reversibly. The young and old group of hBMSC obtained from the iliac crest from total 9 healthy patients, showed similar proliferation capacity. Cell surface markers such as CD34, CD45, CD90 and CD105 showed uniform expression regardless of age. However, the young group showed more prominent transdifferentiation capacity with adipogenic differentiation. The osteoblast differentiation capacity or BMP responsiveness was low and similar between young and old group. TSA and 5-AZC showed potential for enhancing the BMP effect on osteoblast differentiation by increasing the expression level of osteogenic master gene, such as DLX5, ALP. More study will be needed to determine the positive effect of the reversible function of HDAC inhibitors or methyltransferase inhibitors on enhancing the low osteoblast differentiation capacity of hBMSC.
