ABSTRACT
Proposição: Este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar a modulação dos miRNAs que afetam o potencial osteogênico de CTMs em diferentes topografias de superfície de discos de vidro. Material e Métodos: Células tronco mesenquimais humanas foram plaqueadas nas diferentes superfícies e comparadas após 3, 7 e 14 dias para atividade de fosfatase alcalina, expressão de genes (Osteocalcina, Osteopontina, Sialo Proteína Óssea, Osterix, Runx2, BMP2 e ALP) e expressão de miRNAs. Microscopia eletrônica de varredura das superfícies com células foram obtidas para avaliação de adesão celular. Resultados: Atividade de fosfatase alcalina nas diferentes superfícies foi significantemente maior na superfície com nanotopografia. Do mesmo modo, a expressão de genes relacionados com osteoblastos foi mais elevada na superfície nano. Com 14 dias foi observado um aumento de 3.5 e 9 vezes para os genes Runx2 e Osterix, respectivamente. O gene da BMP2 e ALP também apresentou um aumento de 4 e 7 vezes comparado ao controle. Utilizando a tecnologia de sequenciamento de RNA (RNA-Seq) onde todos os RNAs existentes foram sequenciados, um total de 123 miRNAs com diferença de expressão foram encontrados comparando a superfície controle (dia 7) com a superfície nano (dia 14). 48 miRNAs apresentaram uma redução na expressão e 75 apresentaram um aumento de expressão. Alguns destes apresentaram marcadores para genes osteogênicos já identificados, tais como hsa-miR-135b-5p marcador para OCN, BSP, Runx2, CO15A1 e OSX, hsa-miR-122-5p marcador para OPN, hsa-miR-196a-5p marcador para BMP4, hsa-miR-26b-5p marcador para BMP2 e hsa-miR-148b-3p marcador para OPN. Conclusão: As superfícies com nanotopografia tem o potencial de melhorar a resposta de osseointegração de maneira a reduzir o tempo de osseointegração e também aumentar a produção de tecido ósseo ao redor dos implantes favorecendo assim áreas de qualidade óssea baixa. A utilização de miRNAs para alterar a resposta de diferenciação pode também ajudar a controlar o processo de osseointegração(AU)
Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the modulation of miRNAs that affect the osteogenic potential of MSCs in different surface topographies of glass disks. Material and Methods: Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) were plated on different surfaces of glass disks and compared at 3,7 and 14 days for alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, expression of genes (Osteocalcin, Osteopontin, Bone Sialo Protein, Osterix, Runx2, BMP2 and ALP) and expression of miRNAs. Scanning electron microscopy of surfaces with cells were obtained to analyse the attachment of cells. Results: ALP activity on different surfaces was significantly greater in the nanotopography surface. At day 14 there was a 3.5-fold and a 9-fold increase for Runx2 and Osterix gene, respectively. BMP2 and ALP also increased by 4- and 7-fold compared to control. Using RNA sequencing technology (RNA-Seq) a total of 123 miRNAs were found differently expressed comparing control (day 7) to nano surface (day 14). 48 miRNAs were downregulated and 75 were upregulated. Some of them regulated osteogenic genes such as hsa-miR-135b-5p that targets OCN, BSP, RUNX2, CO15A1 and OSX, hsamiR-122-5p wich targets OPN, hsa-miR-196a-5p targets BMP4, hsa-miR-26b-5p that targets BMP2 and hsa-miR-148b-3p that targets OPN. Conclusion: Surfaces with nanotopography have the potential to improve osseointegration response in order to reduce the time of osseointegration and also increase the production of bone tissue around the implants improving low bone quality areas. The use of miRNAs to affect differentiation response may also help control the osseointegration process(AU)

Introduction: The surface of dental implants is an important factor for osseointegration process and different methods of surface treatment have been described. Objective: To investigate the bone apposition in implant surface treated with sandblasting and acid-etching. Material and methods: Ten rabbits were selected and received one implant treated with method I in the left tibia and one implant treated with method II in the right tibia. Then, twenty implants were divided in two groups, according to methods of sandblasting and acid-etching (method I and method II). After 7, 14, 30, 45 and 60 days, tibias were retrieved and submitted to histotechnical procedures. The percentages of bone-implant contact (BIC) and bone area between threads (BABT) were determined throughout histomorphometric analysis and bone apposition was detected in implants of both groups. Results: In BABT measurements, an increase was observed after 45 and 60 days in the method II, compared to method I and no differences were found after 7, 14 and 30 days. In BIC measurements, an increase was detected with method II at 45 days when compared to method I. No differences between groups in BIC values were observed after 7, 14, 30 and 60 days. Conclusion: Our data demonstrated that implants treated with the method II presented increase in the contact between bone and implant after 45 days compared to method I. Moreover, with concern to bone area between threads, it was observed an increased in the method II after 45 and 60 days. However, both groups can be successfully used as a therapeutic strategy to rehabilitation of edentulous patients. Then, further experiments are needed to evaluate, in depth, the putative differential role of each surface treatment.
ABSTRACT
Introduction: Zirconia has been considered an alternative material to titanium for implant manufacturing, however the mechanisms regarding to bone healing in presence of zirconia implants remains poorly known. Objective: The objective of the investigation was to evaluate the bone healing surrounding titanium and zirconia implants in rabbits after 7, 14, 30, 45 and 60 days of implant placement through histological evaluation. Material and methods: Fifteen rabbits were used in this study and randomly subdivided into 5 groups, according to experimental periods. Titanium and zirconia implants were inserted into the right and left tibia, respectively. After healing periods of 7, 14, 30, 45 and 60 days, animals were euthanatized, the implants were removed and the samples were submitted to histological procedures. Results: Our histological results demonstrated similar bone healing surrounding titanium and zirconia implants after 7, 14 and 30 days after implant placement. After 45 days, a trend towards to earlier bone maturation was detected, remaining after 60 days. Inflammatory infiltrate, bone resorption and foreign body reaction were not observed in any periods and groups evaluated. Conclusion: Our findings demonstrated that zirconia and titanium presented a similar pattern of bone healing.
