<p> 目的 : 近年, 接着性コンポジットレジン修復の応用範囲が拡大している. コンポジットレジンの色彩学的研究が進められてきたが, 色差計による客観的な色差判定と視覚による主観的な色の評価は必ずしも一致しない. 本研究では, コンポジットレジンの視覚的色調評価法の確立を目指し, 主観的評価のデータを連続変数として測定することができるVisual Analog Scale (VAS) を応用し, その有用性を検討した.</p><p> 材料と方法 : 構造色発色コンポジットレジン (試作コンポジットレジン : ECM-001) と3種類の市販コンポジットレジン (A3) を用いた. A1, A2, A3, A3.5シェードの上顎中切歯の硬質レジン歯にⅤ級またはⅢ級窩洞を形成し, 上記のコンポジットレジンを充塡して, 白色または黒色背景上での色調適合性をVAS法にて判定した. そしてVAS値による評価と視覚的な評価の関連性を検討した. Ⅴ級窩洞およびⅢ級窩洞に充塡した4段階のシェードに対するコンポジットレジン間の有意差は一元配置分散分析およびTukey HSD testを, 背景間の有意差についてはt検定を用いて有意水準5%で解析した.</p><p> 結果 : ECM-001はⅤ級窩洞において, ほかのコンポジットレジンと比較して同等以上の色調適合性を示した. Ⅲ級窩洞では, ECM-001は白色背景時にいずれのシェードの人工歯に対しても優れた色調適合性を示した. しかし, 黒色背景時にはほかのコンポジットレジンのVAS値が上昇する傾向を示したのに対し, ECM-001のVAS値は低下する傾向にあった. VAS値による評価と視覚的な評価の関連性の検討では, 評価者のVASによる色調適合評価の傾向は大部分で一致しており, VAS値は肉眼で認識することのできる情報を反映していることが示された.</p><p> 結論 : VASを応用したコンポジットレジン修復の色調適合評価は, 構造色発色コンポジットレジンの色調評価にも有用であり, コンポジットレジン修復における新規視覚的評価法の一つとなる可能性を示した.</p>

Objectives: Self-adhesive resin cements contain functional monomers that enable them to adhere to the tooth structure without a separate adhesive or etchant. One of the most stable functional monomers used for chemical bonding to calcium in hydroxyapatite is 10-methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate (10-MDP). The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of the10-MDP concentration on the bond strength and physical properties of self-adhesive resin cements. Materials and Methods: We used experimental resin cements containing 3 different concentrations of 10-MDP: 3.3 wt% (RC1), 6.6 wt% (RC2), or 9.9 wt% (RC3). The micro-tensile bond strength of each resin cement to dentin and a hybrid resin block (Estenia C&B, Kuraray Noritake Dental) was measured, and the fractured surface morphology was analyzed. Further, the flexural strength of the resin cements was measured using the three-point bending test. The water sorption and solubility of the cements following 30 days of immersion in water were measured. Results: The bond strength of RC2 was significantly higher than that of RC1. There was no significant difference between the bond strength of RC2 and that of RC3. The water sorption of RC3 was higher than that of any other cement. There were no significant differences in the three-point bending strength or water solubility among all three types of cements. Conclusions: Within the limitations of this study, it is suggested that 6.6 wt% 10-MDP showed superior properties than 3.3 wt% or 9.9 wt% 10-MDP in self-adhesive resin cement.

Tissue regeneration is the important issue in the field of operative dentistry. In the previous study, we demonstrated that TNFα activates the potential for totipotency in human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) and leads to the regeneration of target cells or tissues along with the appropriate differentiating factor such as Emd-Gel. In this study, we apply the transcription factor set of TNF-α and Amelogenin to the human adipose-derived stem cells (hASCs) and our results indicate that this transcription factor set differentiate hASCs into odontblasts simillary and suggest that TNFα activates potential totipotency of hASCs and the activation can lead to the regeneration of target cells or tissues

酸腐食象牙質への樹脂の浸透が不完全な場合は、ハイブリッド層に水分の多い、樹脂の少ない領域(隙間)が残ってしまい、樹脂や微細繊維の分解を引き起こすと推測される。実験的樹脂にヒドロキシアパタイト(Hap)を加えると、微小隙間をリン酸カルシウムで満すことができると考え、その仮説について検証した。0、5、10wt%のHApを加えた樹脂を作成した。この樹脂について、水分吸着と可溶性評価、カルシウム沈着誘導の評価、走査型電子顕微鏡観察とエネルギー分散X線分析、引張り試験を行った。その結果、HApは象牙質への樹脂の浸透には効果がなかったが、歯科用接着剤にHApを添加するとハイブリッド層の下に結晶を形成させ、強いアンカーになることが示唆された。

D-Glucosamine is a useful medicament in various fields of medicine and dentistry. With respect to stability of the cell membrane, it has been reported that bradykinin-induced nociceptive responses are significantly suppressed by the direct application of D-glucosamine. Electroporation is usually used to effectively introduce foreign genes into tissue culture cells. Buffers for electroporation with or without D-glucosamine are used in experiments of transfection vectors. This is the first study to indirectly observe the stability and protection of the osteoblast membrane against both electric stress and gene uptake (the proton sponge hypothesis: osmotic rupture during endosomes prior to fusion with lysosomes) in electroporation with D-glucosamine application. The transfection efficiency was evaluated as the fluorescence intensity of the transfected green fluorescent protein (GFP) in the cultured cells (osteoblasts; NOS-1 cells). The transfection efficiency increased over 30% in the electroporation samples treated with D-glucosamine-supplemented buffer after one day. The membrane absorption of D-glucosamine is the primary mechanism of membrane stress induced by electric stress. This new function of D-glucosamine is useful and meaningful for developing more effective transformation procedures.

Objective. To evaluate the surface characteristics of indirect composites etched with acidulated phosphate fluoride (APF) solution. Material and methods. APF solution was applied to specimens of six composite materials. The surface morphological change was measured with a confocal laser scanning microscope. Gloss measurement and scanning electron microscope (SEM) observation were also performed. Results. The APF-treated surface showed various patterns due to the difference in the filler incorporated in each composite. The surface properties could be evaluated precisely from the surface roughness parameters. The arithmetical mean deviation of roughness profile (Ra) parameter of the specimens treated with APF solution was higher than those of the specimens untreated with APF, except New Meta Color Infis (IF). The difference in etching influence of each composite material was shown conclusively in the maximum height of the profile (Rz) parameter. Gradia (GR) and Gradia Forte (GF) were etched three times more deeply than that of IF categorized microfilled composite. The mean width of the profile element (RSm) decreased significantly after APF treatment, except in IF. Gloss was reduced apparently in all materials, indicating that gloss reduction was sensitive to slight surface changes. Conclusions. Specific filler particles of prosthodontic composite materials were etched by APF application. The surface roughness parameters, such as Rz and RSm, properly described various surface topographic features. Gloss was strongly correlated to surface roughness, as defined by these parameters, and especially to the initial change of surface roughness.

Clearfil DC Bond (DC) is a new single-step, dual-cure bonding agent. In this study, the shear bond strengths of a core build-up composite to dentin used with four bonding systems [DC, Unifil Core Self-Etching Bond (UC), Clearfil SE Bond (SE) and Cleafil tri-S Bond (TS)] were measured. The bonding ability after 7 days of storage and in vitro durability following 20,000 thermocycles were also evaluated. The bond strength of DC did not differ significantly from those of other bonding systems after 24 hours of storage. Another dual-cure bonding system, UC, showed a significant reduction of bond strength after 7 days of storage. On the other hand, the bond strength of TS, a light-cured bonding system with a similar composition to DC, was reduced significantly following 20,000 thermocycles. SE, a two-step light-cure bonding system in the same series as DC, provided superior bond strength under all conditions. Although DC showed a slightly lower bond strength than SE, there was no significant difference between DC and SE under all conditions. Consequently, DC may be a useful and effective bonding system for multiple composite resin restorations. (J. Oral Sci. 50, 329-333, 2008)

Chitosan is a natural polyaminosaccharide that is extensively applied as an antitumor and antirheumatic drug. However, there are few reports about its effects on hypofunctional osteoblasts in vitro. We investigated the biological characteristics of a human osteoblastic cell line (NOS-1 cells) that was cultured with a chitosan monomer-containing medium under simulated microgravity conditions. After 7 days of cell incubation under the conventional conditions, the flasks were transferred to a microgravity simulator for 3 days. In the 0.005% chitosan monomer supplemented group, the marker enzyme of biological mineralization, the alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, was significantly higher compared with the control group (p &lt; 0.05). A cDNA microarray was performed to investigate the effects on the mRNA level by chitosan monomer, and the fluorescent signal was analyzed. The interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) receptor gene was detected with a signal ration of 2.2. The slight increase of IFN-gamma receptor expression was confirmed after 3 days of incubation according to RT-PCR analysis. Western blot analysis also showed the increased expression of IFN-gamma receptor. These results suggest that a supra-low concentration of chitosan monomer may increase the ALP activity of osteoblastic cells through the IFN-gamma receptor at the early phase of cell culture and recover the activity for biological mineralization under the hypofunctional condition.

Objectives: This study was designed to confirm the mechanical efficacy of chewing chitosan containing gum to suppress the growth of oral bacteria compared to a mouth rinse, and to demonstrate the increased salivary secretion due to chewing chitosan-containing gum.
Method: Twelve healthy subjects were recruited from among the staff and students of Nagasaki University School of Dentistry. For the slab of gum study, the subjects chewed chitosan-containing gum for 5 min and then rested for 5 min. For the testing of the chitosan mouth rinse solution, the subjects gargled 10 mL of solution for 30 s followed by resting for 9 min 30 s. These protocols were continuously repeated five times for 50 min on the same day. For the salivary secretion experiment, the gum chewing was repeated three times per day for 2 days.
Results: The amount of oral bacteria in the subjects who chewed chitosan-containing gum significantly decreased during all three sampling times except at 60 min for total bacteria in comparison to those in the rinse group. Chitosan-containing gum chewing also significantly increased the secretion of saliva.
Conclusions: Chitosan-containing gum chewing has a greater antibacterial effect and it also increases salivary secretion. The present findings strongly indicate that the application of natural materials such as chitosan is useful for both oral health and the quality of life. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Chitosan has a variety of biological activities. Although it has been reported that chitosan promotes osteogenesis in bone lesions, little is known about how it modulates the hard tissue forming cells at the gene level. This study focused on gene expressions in osteoblasts cultured with a super-low concentration of chitosan monomer. cDNA probes were synthesized from isolated RNA and labeled with fluorescent dye. They were hybridized with Human 3.8 II cDNA microarray, and the fluorescent signal was analyzed. cDNA microarray analysis revealed that 10 genes concerning to various signaling-related molecules were expressed at &gt;= 2.0-fold higher signal ratio levels in the experimental group when compared with the control group after 3 days. Real-time PCR analysis showed that chitosan monomer induced an increase in the expression of four signal transduction genes, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)K3, MAPKKK11, Rac1 and Shc1, together with the alkaline phosphatase gene. These results suggest that a super-low concentration of chitosan monomer could modulate the activity of osteoblastic cells through mRNA levels and that chitosan monomer directly affects signal transduction inside cells.

Objective: We have already reported that chitosan inhibited the growth of cariogenic bacteria in vitro. This study was designed to evaluate whether chewing gum, containing chitosan, can effectively suppressed the growth of oral bacteria (total bacteria, total Streptococci, mutans streptococci (MS)) in saliva.
Methods: Fifty healthy subjects, ranging in age from 19 to 32 years, were recruited from among the staff and students of Nagasaki University School of Dentistry. For the slab of gum study, the subjects chewed gum for S min and then rested for 5 min. Each subject chewed a total of eight pieces of gum, which was either supplemented with or without chitosan, for a total of 80 min. Two different types of gums were examined with at least 1 week as a rest period in between treatments. This in vivo study was carried out by the double blind comparison test.
Results: The amount of oral bacteria was found to significantly decrease in the chitosan group. Especially, the number of MS were maintained at about a 20% level in comparison to that before gum chewing, even at 1 h after gum chewing.
Conclusion: These findings suggest that a supplementation of chitosan to gum is an effective method for controlling the number of cariogenic bacteria in situations where it is difficult to brush one's teeth, such as when an individual is away from home all day or participating in outdoor training.

The present study was undertaken to evaluate the applicability of chitosan monomer (D-glucosamine hydrochloride) as a Pulp capping medicament. Both hi vitro and in vivo experiments were carried out to study the cell metabolism and Wound healing mechanisms following the application of chitomonosaccharide. After 3 days of osteoblast culture, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity Significantly increased in the chitosan group. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction analysis revealed that chitosan induced an increase in the expression of ALP mRNA after 3 days and bone morphogenetic protein-2 mRNA after 7 days of osteoblast incubation. Inflammatory cytokine, interleukin (IL)-8, synthesis in fibroblasts was strongly suppressed in the medium Supplemented with chitosan monomer. Histopathological effects were evaluated in rat experiments. After day, inflammatory cell infiltrations were observed to be weak when compared with the application of chitosan polymer. After 3 days, a remarkable proliferation of fibroblasts was seen near the applied chitosan monomer. The inflammatory cell infiltration had almost completely disappeared. After 5 days, the fibroblastic proliferation progressed, and some odontoblastic cells appeared at the periphery of the proliferated fibroblasts. These findings indicate that the present study is the first report that chitosan monomer acts as a biocompatibly stable medicament even at the initial Stage Of wound healing in comparison with the application of chitosan polymer.

Chitosan has a variety of biological activities. However, little is known about how chitosan modulates the hard tissue forming cells. When we cultured an osteoblastic cell line in alpha-MEM supplemented with 10% FBS and 0.005% chitooligosaccharide for 3 days, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity was significantly high compared with the control culture group (P &lt; 0.05). This study was focused on gene expression in osteoblasts cultured with water-soluble chitooligosaccharide. cDNA probes were synthesized from isolated RNA and labeled with fluorescent dye. They were hybridized with Human 1.0(R) cDNA microarray, and fluorescent signal was analyzed. cDNA microarray analysis revealed that 16 genes were expressed at greater than or equal to 1.5-fold higher signal ratio levels in the experimental group compared with the control group after 3 days. RT-PCR analysis showed that chitosan oligomer induced an increase in the expression of two genes, CD56 antigen and tissue-type plasminogen activator. Furthermore, the expression of mRNAs for BMP-2 was almost identical in the experimental and control groups after 3 days of culture, but slightly increased after 7 days of culture with chitosan oligomer. These results suggest that a super-low concentration of chitooligosaccharide could modulate the activity of osteoblastic cells through mRNA levels and that the genes concerning cell proliferation and differentiation call be controlled by water-soluble chitosan.

The present study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of pH and the degree of polymerization of chitosan on the inhibition of growth of Streptococcus mutans. Three types of chitosan, polymer, oligomer and monomer were used at 4% (W/V) and three different levels of pH: 6.0, 6.5 and 7.4. Bactericidal activity was calculated by the growth ratio. Chitosan oligomer significantly inhibited bacterial growth at a pH value of 6.5. All three types of chitosan strongly inhibited bacterial growth at pH 6.0. Furthermore, nearly complete inhibition was obtained with 2%(W/V) chitosan solution at constant pH 6.5. This study is the first to report that water-soluble chitosan directly suppresses the growth of the typical cariogenic bacterium S. mutans even at pH 6.5, without causing demineralization of the tooth surface.

Chitosan is a natural bioactive material. Although it has been reported that chitosan promotes osteogenesis in bone lesions, little is known about how chitosan modulates this process. The present study was designed to investigate the effect of water-soluble chitosan relative to initiation of biologic mineralization, especially in the matrix-vesicles-(MVs) mediated process in vitro. A human osteoblastic cell line (NOS-1) was used. After 3 days of incubation, the number of cells and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity increased significantly in the chitosan group. RTPCR analysis revealed that chitosan induced an increase in the expression of bone morphogenetic protein-2 mRNA after 7 days of incubation. MVs were isolated from NOS-1 cells using a collagenase digestion and ultracentrifugation method. ALP activity of MVs isolated from chitosan-supplemented cells was significantly higher than that of the control group. Furthermore, isolated MVs were incubated in medium supplemented with Na-beta-glycerophosphate without fetal bovine serum. Needle-like crystals were observed in association with MVs after 24h of incubation. These needle-like crystals were densely accumulated in the chitosan group. The present findings suggest that water-soluble chitosan would promote osteoblast proliferation and differentiation and may be useful for the acceleration of initial biologic mineralization.

Matrix vesicles (MV) having high alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity act as initiators of biological mineralization. Although bacteria have similar membranous structures to MV. ALP mediated mineralization has not been studied in bacterial cells. Escherichia coli was transformed with a bacterial ALP gene in this study. Recombinant E. coli overproducing ALP induced mineralization through hydrolysis of calcium-glycerophosphate (Ca-GP). Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and electron microscopy combined with electron diffraction revealed newly formed hydroxyapatite mineral deposits. These findings suggest that hydrolysis of Ca-GP through ALP induced high Ca and Pi concentrations within bacterial cells followed by complete bacterial mineralization.

A 16-kDa protein, identical to the a-crystallin-like stress protein, was induced under O-2-deficient culture conditions and bound principally to the 30S ribosomal subunits of Mycobacterium bovis BCG substrain Tokyo (BCG). The 16-kDa protein was shown to be tightly associated with the ribosome.

The component of mycobacterial 85 complex (85A, 85B, and 85C) and MPB51 are very important from immunological, biochemical, and antimycobacterial points of view. In this study, the transcriptional properties of genes encoding three components of 85 complex and MPB51 from BCG were analysed. The authors' analyses revealed that genes for 85A and MPB51 were transcribed as a single unit despite the one operon-like structure and these four genes were probably under a different regulatory control. These findings may help to understand the immunological and physiological roles of these antigens. (C) 1997 Academic Press Limited.

The components of the fibronectin-binding antigen 85 complex (85A, 85B, and 85C) and the related protein MPB/MPT51 are major secreted proteins in Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium bovis BCT;, The fbpA, fbpC, and mpt51 genes encoding 85A, 85C, and MPT51, respectively, were isolated from Mycobacterium avium and sequenced in this study, The structures of these genes, and that of the fbpB gene encoding the 85B protein, were conserved in these three species. The secreted amounts of 85A, 85B, 85C, and MPB/MPT51 were compared for M. tuberculosis, BCG, and M, avium, These four proteins were found in large amounts in the culture filtrates from M. tuberculosis and BCG, In contrast, in the culture filtrate from M. avium, 85B and MPT51 were abundant whereas 85A and 85C were hardly found, in spite of the presence of the encoding genes, The difference in the secretion amounts might be regulated at the transcription level, These facts might reflect host immunopathogenesis, the protective immunities against infections, and the drug susceptibilities of these organisms.

The live bacterial vaccine Mycobacterium bovis BCG (BCG) is a vehicle worth noticing for various protective antigens. The gene encoding the B-cell epitope of the oligopeptide repeating in the circumsporozoite protein (C.S. protein) of the rodent malaria parasite, Plasmodium yoelii, was inserted into the plasmid vector under the control of an expression cassette carrying the promoter and signal sequence of the a antigen derived from Mycobacterium kansasii (k-a). The B-cell epitope was successfully expressed and secreted from BCG as a fusion protein with k-a. This recombinant BCG was administered subcutaneously into BALB/c mice and the antibody production was measured by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Long lasting humoral response was found in one of seven mice.

The secreted protein MPB51 is one of the major proteins in the culture filtrate of Mycobacterium bovis BCG (BCG) and is a protein immunologically cross-reacting with the fibronectin binding 85 complex secreted by this bacterium. The gene encoding MPB51 (mpb51) was cloned, sequenced, and expressed in Escherichia coli. The mpb51 gene was mapped downstream of the gene for 85A component with 179 bp spaces. The mpb51 gene encoded 299 amino acids, including 33 amino acids for the signal peptide, followed by 266 amino acids for the mature protein with a molecular mass of 27807.37 Da. This is the first complete sequence of MPB51. MPB51 showed 37-43% homology to the components of 85 complex. Two-dimensional electrophoresis of culture fluids of BCG and Western blotting indicated the existence of the other novel protein(s) which strongly cross-reacted with the alpha antigen (85B) and MPB51.
