"Triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA) is a common component of the bonding agents and resin composites used in dentistry for restorative dentistry. However, TEGDMA could be released from composite resins following incomplete polymerization and degradation processes by salivary enzymes in the mouth. Subsequently, TEGDMA is available in saliva and diffuses toward and affects the dental pulp which contains various cells, and thus may cause severe cytotoxic effects. Objectives: To determine the total protein concentration of human dental pulp cells following exposure to TEGDMA. Materials & methods: Dental pulp cells were isolated from the pulp of the freshly extracted teeth and cultured in DMEM for 48 h (37°C, 5% CO2). Then, 2 mM, 4mM and 8 mM TEGDMA were added to these cells and incubated for 24 h. The total protein was measured by Bradford Protein Assay. Results: The total protein concentration of dental pulp cell after expsured to 4 mM, 8mM, and 12 mM TEGDMA were statistically lower (22762.27 ug/ml ± 3385.87; 20268.44 ug/ml ± 1701.14; 23706.51 ug/ml ± 3214.52; respectively) than the control group (24253.77 ug/ml ± 3072.88). Furthermore, the total protein concentration of culture medium after exposured to 4 mM, 8mM, and 2 mM TEGDMA, were statustically higher (28635 ug/ml ± 2373.4; 35288.41 ug.ml ± 3469.48; 38199.79 ug/ml ± 2752.47; respectively) when compared with the controls (27073.85 ug/ml ± 2772.47). Conclusion: 2 mM, 4 mM, and 8 mM TEGDMA caused cytotoxicity to human dental pulp cells showed by decreasing the total protein of cells and increasing total protein of the culture medium."

"Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menginvestigasi efektivitas dental pulp stem cells DPSCs dalam menginduksi proses regenerasi jaringan pada defek tulang kelinci New Zealand dengan menilai kadar alkaline phosphatase ALP dan gambaran histologis. Defek kritis dibuat pada tulang femur kelinci dan transplantasi DPSCs dilakukan terhadap kelompok perlakuan, sedangkan defek pada kelompok kontrol dibiarkan kosong. Pada minggu ke-2 dan ke-4 pasca tindakan operatif, dilakukan pengukuran kadar ALP dalam serum menggunakan colorimetric assay. Setelah 4 minggu, kelinci dikorbankan dan dilakukan analisis terhadap gambaran histologis. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pada minggu ke-2, kelompok kelinci yang diberi perawatan dengan DPSCs memiliki kadar ALP yang lebih tinggi 157,925 ?U daripada kelompok kontrol 155,361 ?U dan peningkatan terjadi di minggu ke-4 dengan nilai yang lebih besar pada kelompok DPSCs 169.750 ?U dibandingkan dengan kelompok kontrol 160.406 . Evaluasi histologis menunjukkan bahwa sejumlah lamela tulang dan osteosit mengisi area defek dari kelompok DPSCs. Dengan demikian, dapat disimpulkan bahwa transplantasi DPSCs efektif dalam menginduksi dan mempercepat progresivitas regenerasi jaringan.

This study was aimed to investigate the effectiveness of dental pulp stem cells DPSCs to induce bone regeneration in New Zealand rabbits by assessing the level of alkaline phosphatase ALP and histological view. The critical defect was created in the left femoral bone of the rabbits and transplantation of DPSCs was conducted to the treated group while the defect in the control group was left empty. In 2nd week and 4th week postoperative, ALP level in rabbits serum were measured using colorimetric assay. After 4 weeks, the rabbits were sacrificed and analyzing of histological views were conducted.

The results showed that in the 2nd week, rabbit treated DPSCs group had higher level of ALP 157,925 U than the control group 155,361 U and increasing occured in the 4th week with greater score in DPSCs group 169.750 U compared to the control group 160.406 U . Histological evaluation revealed that the amount of bone lamellae and osteocytes filled the defect area of DPSCs group. Therefore, transplantation of DPSCs are effective to induce and accelerate bone regeneration by raising ALP level and forming new bone tissue."

"Latar Belakang: Sumber sel stromal yang paling ideal digunakan dalam rekayasa jaringan adalah sel stromal pulpa gigi permanen (DPSC) dan sel stromal pulpa gigi sulung (SHED) dikarenakan sifat proliferasinya yang tinggi. Pada penelitian sebelumnya, dinyatakan bahwa terdapat peningkatan ekspresi gen homeobox salah satunya yaitu gen ALX4 sebagai pada pasien celah bibir dan palatum dengan subjek normal. Gen ALX4 adalah gen homeobox dibawah famili Alx dan memiliki peran langsung dalam perkembangan dan pembentukan kepala serta wajah serta mentranslasi protein yang meregulasi perkembangan dan proliferasi sel, pendewasaan dan diferensiasi sel, pergerakan sel, dan pertahanan sel. Namun, karakteristik DPSC dan SHED dilihat dari ekspresi gen ALX4 pada subjek normal dan pasien celah bibir dan palatum belum diketahui. Tujuan: Mengevaluasi karakteristik DPSC dan SHED subjek normal dan pasien CLP berdasarkan ekspresi gen ALX4. Metode: DPSC subjek normal, DPSC pasien celah bibir dan palatum, dan SHED pasien celah bibir dan palatum diperoleh dari bahan biologis tersimpan Laboratorium Oral Biologi Fakultas Kedokteran Gigi Universitas Indonesia. Selanjutnya ekspresi gen ALX4 dan housekeeping gene GAPDH diuji dengan two step quantitative RT-PCR (RT-PCR). Hasil: Tidak terdapat perbedaan ekspresi gen ALX4 baik diantara DPSC subjek normal dengan DPSC CLP (p=0,407) maupun DPSC CLP dengan SHED CLP (p=0,145). Kesimpulan: Tidak terdapat perbedaan karakteristik sel stromal pulpa gigi permanen dan sel stromal pulpa gigi sulung pada subjek normal dengan pasien celah bibir dan palatum berdasarkan ekspresi gen ALX4.

Background: The most ideal sources of stromal cells used in tissue engineering are dental pulp stem cells (DPSC) and stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED) due to their high proliferative properties. In previous studies, it was stated that there was an increase in the expression of homeobox genes (differentially expressed genes (DEGs), one of which was the ALX4 gene as in cleft lip and palate patients with normal subjects. The ALX4 gene is a homeobox gene under the Alx family and has a direct role in the development and formation of the skull and human face, along with the ALX4 proteins that regulate cell development and proliferation, cell maturation and differentiation, cell movement, and cell defence. However, the characteristics of ALX4 gene expression in DPSC and SHED in normal and cleft lip and palate patients are not known. Objective: To evaluate and compare the characteristics of Dental Pulp Stromal Cells (DPSC) and Stromal Cells from Human Exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED) in cleft lip and palate and normal subjects by the expression of the ALX4 homeobox gene. Methods: DPSC of normal subjects, DPSC of CLP patients, SHED of CLP patients were obtained from stored biological material in the Oral Biology Laboratory, Faculty of Dentistry, University of Indonesia. Then, the examination of ALX4 gene expression was tested by Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) Results: There was no difference in ALX4 gene expression between DPSC in normal subjects and DPSC in cleft lip and palate subjects (p=0,407) and between DPSC in cleft lip and palate subjects and SHED in cleft lip and palate subjects (p=0,145). Conclusion: There were no differences in the characteristics of the pulp stromal cells of permanent and primary teeth in normal subjects with cleft lip and palate subjects through the expression of the ALX4 gene."
