Abstract

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to compare the cytotoxicity of 2 bioceramic-based (Bioserra and AH Plus Bioceramic (Bio)) and 2 epoxy resin-based (Sealart and AH Plus) root canal sealers on the Saos-2 cell line.

Methods: The cytotoxicity of the root canal sealers was determined using the MTT metabolic activity assay. The mRNA expression levels of Bcl-2, Beclin1, Cas-3, IL-6, LC3, MMP-9 and TNF-α genes were assessed by quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and the expression of Beclin1 and LC3 proteins were assessed using western blot (WB) method. The canal sealers' total antioxidant status (TAS), total oxidant status (TOS), and oxidative stress index (OSI) were measured using photometric kits.

Results: AH Plus Bio significantly increased metabolic activity compared to the 2 resin-containing sealers, but there was no difference with Bioserra. Sealart was clearly the most cytotoxic group. QRT-PCR analysis revealed that the mRNA expressions of Bcl-2, Beclin1, Cas-3, IL-6, LC3, and MMP-9 in the Bioserra group, Bcl-2, Cas-3, and IL-6 in the Sealart group, Beclin1, Cas-3, IL-6, and MMP-9 in the AH Plus group, and Bcl2 in the AH Plus Bio group were stimulated. The OSI results showed no significant difference between the root canal sealer groups.

Conclusions: In the study, the best biocompatibility results in MTT, qRT-PCR, WB and OSI were in the AH Plus Bio group. Although Bioserra, the study's other bioceramic paste, was found to be biocompatible according to MTT and OSI measurements, it increased the expression of all genes in qRT-PCR except for TNF-α, and also increased LC3 protein levels in WB.

Clinical relevance: Since periradicular tissues can be directly affected by the materials used in root canal treatment, the sealers with high biocompatibility are being developed. In vitro studies examining the biocompatibility of newly produced root canal sealers are guiding for clinical success.

期刊介绍： The journal Clinical Oral Investigations is a multidisciplinary, international forum for publication of research from all fields of oral medicine. The journal publishes original scientific articles and invited reviews which provide up-to-date results of basic and clinical studies in oral and maxillofacial science and medicine. The aim is to clarify the relevance of new results to modern practice, for an international readership. Coverage includes maxillofacial and oral surgery, prosthetics and restorative dentistry, operative dentistry, endodontics, periodontology, orthodontics, dental materials science, clinical trials, epidemiology, pedodontics, oral implant, preventive dentistiry, oral pathology, oral basic sciences and more.
