Book The Effect of Titanium Surface Roughness on Growth  Differentiation  and Protein Synthesis of Cartilage and Bone Cells

Download or read book The Effect of Titanium Surface Roughness on Growth Differentiation and Protein Synthesis of Cartilage and Bone Cells written by Janet Y. Martin and published by . This book was released on 1996-05-01 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Placement of endosseous dental implants requires the growth and tight opposition of bone tissue to the implant surface. Histomorphological evaluation of various implant systems have shown variable contact between the bone and implant surface. Previous studies have alluded to the fact that various factors probably influence the interactions occurring at the bone-implant interface. These included specific surface characteristics such as chemical composition, surface texture and microgeometry, surface treatments including sterilization methods, presence of surface contaminants, and types of cells interacting at the implant interface. However, the role these factors play in osseointegration is not well known at this time. The object of this study, therefore, was to evaluate the effect of some of these factors on cell response.

Titanium implanthas been shown to be a predictable method for replacing missing teeth. Clinical studies revealed that implant failure rate in irradiated regionwas high. Many studies showed that modifications of implant surface could enhance implant osseointegration by improving cell attachment, cell growth and bone formation. Nevertheless, there were few studies investigating the effect of implant surface modification on osseointegration in irradiated bone. In the first experiment, the effect of fluoride-modified (FM) titanium surface on irradiated osteoblast attachment was assessed. The morphology and chemical composition of FM surface was assessed by SEM, AFM and XPS. Osteoblasts received 0Gy, 2Gy, 4Gy, 6Gy, 8Gy, 10Gy radiation. Cell number, fluorescence intensity and cell area of irradiated osteoblasts were assessed. The number of osteoblasts onFM surface was fewer than those on NF surface after 0Gy, 2Gy, 8Gy and 10Gy radiation. Cell area of osteoblasts on FM surface was less at 2Gy radiation but larger at 6Gy radiation than on NF surface. The fluorescence intensity of osteoblasts was also higher on NF surface than on FM surface after receiving 0Gy, 2Gy, 4Gy, 10Gy radiation. In the second experiment, an animal model was established to study the effect of radiation on osseointegration. Rabbits were divided into 15Gy and 30Gy radiation groups. Only the left leg was exposed to radiation, and the right leg was protected from radiation. Totally, 24 implants were inserted. Implant stability quotient (ISQ), bone volume to total volume (BV/TV), bone-to-implant contact (BIC), and bone growth rate were measured. After 15Gy and 30Gy of radiation, ISQ and BV/TV were significantly reduced. At week 3, 15Gy radiation group displayed slower bone growth rate comparing with the control side. Fluorochrome results showed that the 30Gy radiation side had a significantly slower apposition of new bone.In addition, BIC on30Gy radiation side was notablypoorer than that on 15Gy radiation side and on 30Gy control side. Based on the animal model, the third experiment investigated effects of calcium phosphate nanocrystals on implant osseointegration in irradiated bone. Titanium implants treated with nano-scale calcium phosphate (CaP) crystals served as the test group while ones with dual acid-etching only served as the control group. The left leg of rabbits received 15Gy radiation and implants were placed in the irradiated leg. Significant higher ISQ was detected in the nano-CaP group at week 12. The bone growth rate in nano-CaP group was more than doubled than the control group at both week 6 and week 9. The fourth experiment evaluated artifacts on micro-CT images caused by titanium dental implant. Implants were assigned into four groups: (1) implant only; (2) implant with covering screw; (3) implant with resin embedding; and (4) implant with covering screw and resin embedding. Each implant was scanned by micro-CT at 3 angulations. Implant angulation was the most determining factor followed by resin embedding. Minimal metallic artifacts were obtainedin non-embedded implants with its axis paralleling to X-ray. DOI: 10.5353/th_b5312315 Subjects: Osseointegration Dental implants

Book Tailoring Surfaces

Download or read book Tailoring Surfaces written by Nicholas D. Spencer and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2011 with total page 690 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The focus of the book is the modification of surfaces to tailor them for a specific purpose. Using this method of surface modification, materials chosen for their bulk properties (tensile strength, temperature stability, density, price can be optimized for any particular application, which can lead to improved hardness, biological inertness or activity, corrosion resistance, low or high friction or adhesion, water repellency or wettability, or catalytic activity. The works of the author — many of his crucial papers are included — touches upon these surface properties and spans fields including catalysis, analytical surface science, self-assembled monolayers, tribology, biomaterials, superhydrophobicity and polymer coatings.

Book The Effect of Titanium Implants on the Peripheral Circadian Rhythm of Bone

Download or read book The Effect of Titanium Implants on the Peripheral Circadian Rhythm of Bone written by Kirstin Ty McCarville and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: BACKGROUND: Endosseous implant osseointegration has been primarily studied from a wound healing-model. The molecular pathway of implant osseointegration is not known. Previous animal studies have shown vitamin D insufficiency impairs the establishment of implant osseointegration. Recent microarray data found an interesting connection between vitamin D receptor and circadian rhythm genes using a vitamin D insufficient animal model (implant failure model). Per1 is one of eight circadian genes that has widely been used as a molecular marker of circadian rhythm. Previous experiments with forskolin-synchronized expression of Per1 in bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (BMSCs) in vitro showed vitamin D supplementation significantly and dose dependently increased the baseline expression of Per1::luc, but preserved the circadian rhythm. We have thus postulated that the circadian rhythm of BMSCs may be influenced by titanium dental implants. OBJECTIVES: To determine the effect of titanium implant substrates with different surface characteristics on BMSCs peripheral circadian rhythm. METHODS: In this study, a series of in vitro studies were designed to characterize the peripheral circadian rhythm of BMSCs harvested from Per1::luc transgenic Wistar rats. Per1 transgenic rats genomic locus of Per1 allele were modified by inserting a beetle luciferase reporter gene (Per1::luc). The peripheral circadian rhythms over a 24-hour period were monitored by the real time activation of luciferase-mediated bioluminescence. Lumicycle was the instrument used to record the luciferase activity (Per1 expression) every ten minutes over five days. Data was evaluated both in the raw form (photons/second) Per1 gene expression and baseline subtracted data. The baseline subtracted data provides the peaks, troughs and periods of the BMSCs peripheral circadian rhythm over 5 days. The first experiments were completed on plastic cell culture dishes with and without vitamin D supplementation. In the second project, two titanium substrates with polished (smooth) surface or complex (rough) surface with blasted, acid etched and discrete HA crystalline deposition were characterized. Surface topography: Sa (average surface roughness) and Sdr (hybrid parameter that presents information about the number and height of peaks of a given surface) were determined by a 3D surface profilometry. To ensure BMSC survival and proper attachment a WST-1 assay was completed. To determine the level of osteoblast differentiation capabilities of BMSCs on all three surfaces (plastic, smooth and rough) a calcium mineralization assay was preformed. In the third project, BMSC peripheral circadian rhythm studies were then executed on smooth and rough titanium surfaces with and without vitamin D supplementation. This study was accomplished using Per1:;luc BMSCs and Lumicyle. In the forth project, Taqman- based quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to validate gene expression of 6 circadian rhythm-related molecules (Per1, Per2, Id2, Bmal1, Clock, and NPas2). RESULTS: Bioluminescent raw measurement of Per1 expression on plastic with and without vitamin D showed that vitamin D increased Per1 expression over days 2, 3 and 4. The baseline subtracted data suggested that vitamin D suppressed the amplitude (peak to trough) but maintained the period. The WST-1 assay revealed that over 4 days the three different surfaces had a comparable number of viable cells. The calcium assay also suggested that the different substrate surfaces did not have large influence on osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. The raw measurement of Per1::luc on titanium implant substrates indicated that the rough titanium surface had a significant reduction in Per1 expression (more than 50%) of photons per second in comparison to the smooth surface. Furthermore, rough titanium with vitamin D had a lower Per1 expression when compared to the rough titanium with no vitamin D. The smooth titanium baseline subtracted data showed a consistent rhythm having developed peaks and troughs. The most dramatic difference was seen in the rough surface baseline subtracted data. The rough surface almost completely eliminated the amplitude and period of the peripheral circadian rhythm. RT-PCR validated that five of the six circadian rhythm genes were downregulated by the rough titanium surface. The only gene upregulated on rough titanium was NPAS2. CONCLUSION: Titanium material had a negative effect on Per1 expression and amplitude of BMSCs peripheral circadian rhythm. Osseointegration pathway is unknown, however, the peripheral circadian rhythm of BMSCs may play a role in the establishment of implant-bone integration. NPAS2 was found to be highly expressed with the rough titanium substrate. Although speculative, the modulation of peripheral circadian rhythm may lead to successful osseointegration.
