Abstract:
Objective:Positive effects of bioactive glass (BG) on proliferation,mineralization,and differentiation of human dental pulp cells (hDPCs) was already verified in various former studies.The Arg-Gly-Asp-Ser sequence (RGDS) was confirmed of affecting cell adhesion.Before further investigation,the objective of this study is to investigate whether RGDS can affect the effects of BG on the adhesion,proliferation and mineralization of hDPCs.Methods: hDPCs were harvested from third molars of 18-25-year-old individuals after informed consent.Enzyme digestion technique was used.The 4th to 6th ge-neration of hDPCs were used for all experiments.The cells of the experimental groups were cultured in Dulbecco minimum essential medium (DMEM) containing ionic dissolution products of BG and RGDS of seve-ral concentrations (12.5 mg/L,25.0 mg/L,50.0 mg/L,100.0 mg/L,200.0 mg/L).DMEM containing ionic dissolution products of BG without RGDS was used for cell culture as control group.Cell adhesion was tested 4 h after cell seeding by MTT assay.Cell proliferation was examined at 1,3,5,7,and 9 d after cell seeding by MTT assay.Cell mineralization was investigated on days 14 and 28 by alizarin red staining.After being stained and dried,mineralized nodules were dissolved by cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) for semi-quantitative test.Results were statistically analyzed by one way ANOVA,SPSS (version 19.0) and P<0.05 was considered to be significant.Results: Cell adhesion in BG group showed no difference from that in DMEM group.Compared with BG group,hDPCs in BG+RGDS groups suggested weaker cell adhesion.When the concentration of RGDS increased,the adhered cell number decreased.hDPCs cultured with BG and RGDS showed lower proliferation activity in the early stage,while no significant difference was observed after 3 d.BG group promoted the mineralization of hDPCs compared with positive control group,negative control group and RGDS group.No significant difference was observed between BG+RGDS group and BG group or between RGDS group and positive control group.Conclusion: BG promotes proliferation and mineralization without affecting cell adhesion of hDPCs.Unbounded RGDS inhibits cell adhesion,but has no influence on the positive effects of BG on the proliferation and mineralization of hDPCs.
