Effects and mechanisms of enamel matrix derivatives on osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells / 中国组织工程研究

BACKGROUND: Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells have good potential for directional differentiation, but the effect and mechanism of enamel matrix derivatives on osteogenic differentiation are still unclear. OBJECTIVE: To summarize the latest research progress on osteogenic induction of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells by enamel matrix derivatives. METHODS: Related literature from 2000 to 2020 was searched in CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP Database, PubMed databases. The key words are “Emdogain® or enamel matrix derivatives, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells”. The languages of the literature were set to Chinese and English. When retrieving some classic articles, the publication date could be extended appropriately. Finally, 62 English articles and 5 Chinese articles meeting the inclusion criteria were selected. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: There are different reports on the osteogenic effect of enamel matrix derivatives on bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. Enamel matrix derivatives may enhance the osteogenic induction ability of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, and may enhance the osteogenic effect by affecting cells or cell membranes, but the relevant mechanism is unclear.

Effects of enamel matrix derivatives on the proliferation and the release of growth factors of human periodontal ligament cells / 대한치과보철학회지

PURPOSE: Stimulating the proliferation and migration of periodontal ligament cells (PDLCs) has become the main goal of periodontal regeneration. To accomplish this goal, regeneration procedures have been developed, but results have not been predictable. Recently, tissue engineering using enamel matrix derivatives (EMDs) and growth factors has been applied to periodontal regeneration; however, the mechanism of EMDs is largely unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of EMDs on the proliferation and release of growth factors from PDLCs. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Human PDLCs were removed from individually extracted 3rd molars of healthy young adults, and cultured in the media containing EMDs (Emdogain, Biora, Malmo, Sweden) at concentration of 0, 12.5, 25, 50, 100, and 200 µg/mL each. Cell proliferation and ALP (alka-line phosphatase) activity were measured. The evaluation of growth factors released by PDLCs was also performed by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Bonferroni's multiple comparison test. RESULTS: Significantly increased proliferation and ALP activity were observed in PDLCs treated with over 25 µg/mL and 50 µg/mL EMDs, respectively. Additionally, treatment of PDLCs with 50 µg/mL resulted in significantly increased release of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and transforming growth factor (TGF)-β after 24 h and 48 h, respectively. CONCLUSION: EMDs enhance the proliferation and ALP activity of PDLCs, and promote the release of growth factors, including VEGF and TGF-β, from PDLCs. Therefore EMDs could be one of the effective methods for periodontal regeneration.

Comparación clínica del uso del colgajo de avance coronal e injerto de tejido conectivo subepitelial con o sin proteínas derivadas de la matriz del esmalte para la cobertura de recesiones gingivales. Caso clínico / Clinical comparison of coronary displaced flap and sub-epithelial connective tissue graft with or without enamel matrix protein derivative for gingival recession coverage. Clinical case presentation

Se presenta un caso clínico donde se evaluó si la agregación del derivado de la matriz del esmalte (DME) al procedimiento del colgajo de avance coronal con injerto de tejido conectivo subepitelial (CDC + ITCS) mejoraría la cantidad de cobertura radicular en recesiones gingivales clase I y II de Miller comparados con el mismo procedimiento solo, en un paciente con recesiones gingivales múltiples a seis meses. Se incluyeron 12 recesiones gingivales, seis tratadas con (CAC + ITCSE + DME) y seis con (CAC + ITCSE) en diferentes cuadrantes. Al inicio y a los seis meses se midieron los parámetros clínicos tales como profundidad de la recesión gingival (PR), profundidad al sondeo (PS), nivel de inserción clínica (NIC), y ancho de tejido queratinizado en dirección apico-coronal (TQ). Un valor p < 0.05 se consideró significativo. Los resultados mostraron que a los seis meses ambos procedimientos, CAC + ITCSE + DME y CAC + ITCSE produjeron una significativa cobertura radicular en promedio 2.83 ± 1.16 mm (p = 0.001) y 2.50 ± 0.83 mm (p = .002), respectivamente. Todas las recesiones gingivales tratadas con el DME tuvieron el 100% de cobertura radicular y sólo el 65.3% de cobertura para los sitios tratados con CAC + ITCSE. Al comparar ambos procedimientos a los seis meses, se observaron mejores resultados con CAC + ITCSE + DME en cuanto al nivel de inserción clínica (p = .02) y la cobertura radicular (p = .06); sin embargo, ni la diferencia del nivel de inserción clínico ni la ganancia en la cobertura radicular mostraron ser significativos. Por otro lado, no se observaron diferencias significativas en la PS y TQ. Conclusión: El presente caso clínico no mostró beneficio adicional cuando se agregó el DME al procedimiento de CAC + ITCSE para la cobertura de recesiones gingivales múltiples clase I y II de Miller.

The present article described a clinical case where it was assessed whether aggregation of enamel matrix derivative (EMD) to the procedure of coronary-advanced flap with sub-epithelial connective tissue graft (CAF + SCTG) would improve the amount of root coverage in Miller's class I and II gingival recessions when compared to the same isolated procedure in a patient suffering multiple gingival recessions, in a 6 month time-span. Twelve gingival recessions were included in the study: six treated with (CAF + SCTG + EMD) and six treated with (CAF + SCTG) in different quadrants. At beginning of procedure as well as six months later, the following clinical parameters were measured: gingival recession depth (RD), depth to probing (PD), clinical insertion level (CIL) and width of keratinized tissue (KT) in apex-coronary direction. A p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results established that after a six month procedure CAF + SCTG + EMD and CAF + SCTG produced significant root coverage, respective averages were 2.83 ± 1.16 mm (p = 0.001) and 2.50 ± 0.83 mm (p = .002). All gingival recessions treated with EMD experienced 100% root coverage, sites treated with CAF + SCTG + EMD exhibited coverage of only 65.3%. When comparing results at six months, better results were observed with CAF + SCTG + EMD with respect to clinical insertion level (p = .02) and root coverage (p = .06). Nevertheless, neither the difference of clinical level insertion nor the gain in root coverage resulted significant. Additionally, no significant differences were observed between PD and KT. Conclusion: The present clinical case did not show additional benefits when EMD were aggregated to the CAF + SCTG in the coverage of multiple Miller's class I and class II gingival recessions.

Effects of enamel matrix derivatives on biologic activities of human periodontal fibloblasts to demineralized root surface / 대한치주과학회지

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of EMD on demineralized root surface using human periodontal ligament cells and compare the effects of root conditioning materials(tetracycline(TCN), EDTA). MATERIAL AND METHODS: Dentin slices were prepared from the extracted teeth and demineralized with TCN and EDTA. Demineralized dentin slices were incubated at culture plate with 25, 50 and 100 microgram/ml concentration of EMD. Cell attachment, alkaline phosphatase activity test, protein synthesis assay and scanning electronic microscopic examination were done. RESULTS: Cells were attached significantly higher in EMD treated group at 7 and 14 days. Cell numbers were significantly higher in EMD treated group. Alkaline phosphatase activity was significantly higher in EMD treated group at 7 and 14 days. Protein synthesis was significantly higher in EMD treated group at 7 and 14 days. CONCLUSION: Enamel matrix derivatives enhance the biologic activities of human periodontal ligament cells on demineralized root surface and its effects are dependent on the concentration of EMD.

Effects of enamel matrix protein derivatives on the periodontal ligament like fibroblast and osteoblast like cells / 대한치주과학회지

Recent study on the enamel matrix derivatives explained on the effects of new bone and new attachment formation in infrabony pocket of periodontal defects. The purpose of this study was to investigate on the biological effects of enamel matrix derivatives to attachment, proliferation and activation of periodontal ligament and osteoblast cells. After treatment of osteoblast and PDL cells with various Emdogain concentration level(0.03microgram/ml, 3microgram/ml, 300 microgram/ml), activation of osteogenetic factor, calcified nodule formation and measuring alkaline phosphatase activity(ALP) were performed. 1. Both osteoblast and PDL cell showed increasing initial cell attachment with 300microgram/ml Emdogain concentration. 2. At the level of 300microgram/ml, accelerated proliferation of oseoblast and PDL cell was appeared. 3. As Emdogain's concentration increased, increased ALP activation of osteoblast was shown. In case of PDL cell, Emdogain increased ALP activation prominently at the level of 300microgram/ml. 4. No statistically significant activating change were founded at all of the concentrations of Emdogain on the activating of transcript factor Runx2 for differentiating osteoblast. 5. At the level of 300microgram/ml, calcified nodule formation was increased prominently to compare with other concentration. These results indicated that Emdogain should activate initial attachment, proliferation and activation, but not on Runx2 activation and can be used for useful tool of the treatment of periodontal tissue regeneration.
