Previously, we reported the function of a lysosomal Ca 2+ channel, two-pore channel (TPC) subtype 2 (TPC2), using TPC2-knockout RAW264.7 cell line (RAW) during osteoclastogenesis. However, the effects of overexpressed TPC2 have not been examined because of the relatively low lipid-based efficiency transfection in RAW. In this study, TPC2 was transfected in RAW and RAW-derived mature osteoclast-like cells using an improved lipid-based transfection method. TPC2 was predominantly localized in the ruffled border-like structure of the osteoclasts. Moreover, overexpression of TPC2 promoted osteoclast differentiation. In addition, expression levels of TPC1 were measured, and TPC1-expressing vectors were transfected into RAW to investigate the role of TPC1 in osteoclastogenesis. Osteoclast dif ferentiation was promoted in TPC1-transfected RAW. Notably, TPC2 expression was not influenced by TPC1 overexpres sion. Furthermore, TPC1 was knocked down by siRNA, resulting in reduced TRAP activity. TRAP is a biochemical indica tor of osteoclastogenesis. Our findings suggest that TPC1 and TPC2 have independent essential roles in the differentiation of osteoclasts.","PeriodicalId":16040,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Hard Tissue Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68965003","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Pathological diagnosis of the original tumor was moderately differentiated squamous cell carcinoma. NOKT-1 cells were transplanted subcutaneously into nude mice and xenograft was formed. In addition, the NOKT-1-XG cell line was established from the transplanted tumor of NOKT-1 cells. NOKT-1 cells and NOKT-1-XG cells were epithelial neoplastic and pleomorphic cells, which were similar. Immunocytochemistry revealed that NOKT-1 and NOKT-1-XG cells were CK17 and human mitochondria positive. To authenticate the NOKT-1 cell line and NOKT-1-XG cell line, we examined cross-contamination with other cell lines using short tandem repeat analysis, the results of which showed that NOKT-1 and NOKT-1-XG are new cell lines. Four of the 16 loci, corresponding to 25%, were different between these two cell lines, which indicates that the NOKT-1 genome was altered by transplantation. Moreover, in AM, NOKT-1 did not have a Y chromosome, whereas NOKT-1-XG had. Despite the genetic differences, a collagen gel droplet-embedded culture drug susceptibility test demonstrated that NOKT-1 cells derived from the original tumor and the NOKT-1-XG cell line had the same sensitivity. This cell line could be very useful for the development of immunotherapy and chemotherapy regimens and research on cancer etiology.","PeriodicalId":16040,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Hard Tissue Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68965863","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The migration ability of cells was measured for each experiment using the wound healing assay. The apoptosis rate was confirmed using the apoptosis assay. Culture supernatants were collected from each experimental group and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) production in the culture media was measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Further, the expression level of VEGF-A was evaluated and compared using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction. The proliferation and migration abilities of both HGFs and HUVECs were confirmed to be suppressed by the addition of ZOL, resulting in apoptosis. ELISA revealed that the quantity of VEGF produced in HGFs was significantly higher in the ZOL group than in the control group until 2 days after the addition of ZOL. In HGFs, the mRNA expression levels of intracellular VEGF-A increased with the addition of ZOL, demonstrating the production of VEGF. In contrast, in HUVECs, although the mRNA expression levels of endogenous VEGF-A increased with the addition of ZOL, VEGF production was considerably decreased in the culture supernatant, indicating the possibility of abnormalities in the autocrine functions of endogenous VEGF or intracellular signal transduction of exogenous VEGF. These data suggest the utility of therapeutic approaches directed toward abnormalities in VEGF intracellular signaling to improve medicationrelated osteonecrosis of the jaw soft-tissue healing.","PeriodicalId":16040,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Hard Tissue Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68964085","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Twenty-five volunteers with no medical history that would interfere with a straight face or a posed smile were enrolled. After creating homologous models from the straight face and posed smile models, we assessed the ability of the principal component (PC) method and the improved Manchester (i-M) method to create a posed smile (virtual) from a straight face (original). Positive errors for the PC and i-M were 1.4 ± 0.5 mm, 0.9 ± 0.4 mm, respectively, and there was a significant difference. Although there were significant differences in error, the error of two methods, including homologous modeling techniques and principal component analysis, were clinically small and useful for predicting change in facial expression.","PeriodicalId":16040,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Hard Tissue Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68964733","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Immunostaining for CK13, CK17, p53, Ki-67, Coxsackie‒adenovirus receptor (CAR) and E-Cadherin was conducted in 200 cases. CK13-positive rate was lower in OLD (33.3%) than in OLP and OLL. CK17-positive rate was slightly lower in OLP (89.2%) compared to OLL and OLD. Ki-67positive rate from basal to spinous layer was higher in OLD (30.6%) than in OLP and OLL, and p53 showed similar trend (OLD: 19.4%). Rate of attenuated CAR staining intensity from basal layer to lower one-third of spinous layer was higher in OLD (77.8%) compared to OLP and OLL, similar to rate of attenuated E-Cadherin staining (OLD: 45.8%). In conclusion, a diagnosis of OLP or OLL is indicated when the lesion is CK13 positive and CK17 positive, with no attenuation of staining intensity for CAR and E-Cadherin from the basal layer to the lower onethird of the spinous layer. On the other hand, a diagnosis of OLD is indicated when the lesion is CK13 negative and CK 17 positive, with attenuation of staining intensity for CAR and E-Cadherin from the basal layer to the lower one-third of the spinous layer.

The primary objective of tissue engineering is to regenerate or replace damaged tissues or organs includ-ing damaged bone tissues with bone grafts, cells, and biological molecules. 45S5-bioglass (45S5-BG), with its superior os-teoconductive and osteoinductive abilities, has been at the forefront of tissue engineering, alveolar bone regeneration, and periodontal regenerative surgical procedures for the past several years. With the aim of regenerating supporting alveolar bone, 45S5-BG was synthesized via sol-gel technique. 45S5-BG was characterized by X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Trans mission Electron Microscopy (TEM) analysis. In vitro bioactivity study was validated in simulated body fluid (SBF) and analysed by Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). In vitro cell compatibility was assessed by 3-(4,5-dimeth-ylthyazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay using L929 cells. Further, in vivo alveolar bone regenerative potential of 45S5-BG bone graft was evaluated. XRD spectrum confirmed the formation of combeite crystalline phase after sintering. TEM images imparted ultra-structural features of the sample and proved the presence of a major crystalline phase embedded in a glassy matrix. In vitro bioactivity study proved the formation of hydroxy carbonate apatite (HCA) as confirmed by FTIR analysis. The in vitro MTT assay results confirmed the cell compatibility of 45S5-BG and histological anal ysis proved new bone formation. Within the limitations of this study, the results demonstrated that in addition to the observed bioactive and cell compatible properties, sol-gel synthesized 45S5-BG bone graft exhibited notable alveolar bone regenerative potential.","PeriodicalId":16040,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Hard Tissue Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68964794","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the relevance of CREPT to the malignancy of salivary gland adenoid cystic carcinoma (SACC) remains unclear. The samples from 51 SACC patients were exploited in this study. We found that SACC samples exhibited a noticeably robuster CREPT expression than the para-cancerous tissues. Statistical analysis suggested that CREPT expression was significantly correlated with the T classification of SACC. To upor down-regulating CREPT expression, the specific shRNA or full length of CREPT was delivered into SACC cell lines to examine the cell proliferation, migration, colony formation and implanted xenograft survival. Western blot assay and immunohistochemistry were applied to evaluate the expression of CREPT, cyclin D1, c-Myc and CDK4. Up-regulated CREPT in the low metastatic SACC line significantly promoted proliferation and colony formation, as well as cyclin D1, c-Myc and CDK4 expression. While knocking down of CREPT in the high metastatic SACC line remarkably reduced above effects. Furthermore, the SACC xenograft in mice confirmed that down-regulation of CREPT inhibited the in vivo tumor growth. Our study indicated that the elevated CREPT expression promoted the cell proliferation and tumor size of SACC by enhancing the expression of cyclin D1, c-Myc and CDK4, suggesting that CREPT contributed to SACC progression by stimulating cell proliferation, and might act as a potential target in future SACC therapy.","PeriodicalId":16040,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Hard Tissue Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68965077","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
