Abstract
Objective
Drug-loaded non-resorbable polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) are proposed as an adjunctive treatment for pulp regenerative strategies. The present in vitro investigation aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of tideglusib-doped nanoparticles (TDg-NPs) in mitigating the adverse effects of bacterial lipopolysaccharide endotoxin (LPS) on the viability, morphology, migration, differentiation and mineralization potential of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs).
Methods
Cell viability, proliferation, and differentiation were assessed using a MTT assay, cell migration evaluation, cell cytoskeleton staining analysis, Alizarin Red S staining and expression of the odontogenic related genes by a real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) were also performed. Cells were tested both with and without stimulation with LPS at various time points. One-way ANOVA and Tukey's test were employed for statistical analysis (p < 0.05).
Results
Adequate cell viability was encountered in all groups and at every tested time point (24, 48, 72 and 168 h), without differences among the groups (p > 0.05). The analysis of cell cytoskeleton showed nuclear alteration in cultures with undoped NPs after LPS stimulation. These cells exhibited an in blue diffuse and multifocal appearance. Some nuclei looked fragmented and condensed. hDPSCs after LPS stimulation but in the presence of TDg-NPs exhibited less nuclei changes. LPS induced down-regulation of Alkaline phosphatase, Osteonectin and Collagen1 gene markers, after 21d. LPS half-reduced the cells production of calcium deposits in all groups (p < 0.05), except in the group with TDg-NPs (decrease about 10 %).
Significance
LPS induced lower mineral deposition and cytoskeletal disorganization in hDPSCs. These effects were counteracted by TDg-NPs, enhancing osteogenic differentiation and mineralization.
期刊介绍:
Dental Materials publishes original research, review articles, and short communications.
Academy of Dental Materials members click here to register for free access to Dental Materials online.
The principal aim of Dental Materials is to promote rapid communication of scientific information between academia, industry, and the dental practitioner. Original Manuscripts on clinical and laboratory research of basic and applied character which focus on the properties or performance of dental materials or the reaction of host tissues to materials are given priority publication. Other acceptable topics include application technology in clinical dentistry and dental laboratory technology.
Comprehensive reviews and editorial commentaries on pertinent subjects will be considered.
