ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the potential cytotoxicity of Adper Single Bond 2 (SB) simplified etch-and-rinse adhesive system in alveolar macrophage cultures, as a function of the post-polymerization time and duration of immersion in the culture medium for preparation of extracts, by observing the levels of nitric oxide (NO) release and cell survival rate (MTT assay). Wistar rat alveolar macrophages were exposed to 200 μL of extracts obtained from 24- or 72-h immersion of adhesive samples in culture medium (RPMI), immediately or 24 h after polymerization. Fresh RPMI and E. coli lipopolysaccharides were used as negative and positive controls, respectively. The cells were placed in a humidified incubator for 24 h. The results were analyzed by the Student's-t test (α=5 percent). The amount of NO produced and viable cells were significantly different (p<0.05) between the experimental and the control groups, showing that, irrespective of the post-polymerization time and duration of immersion in the culture medium, the adhesive system caused intense cytotoxicity to the macrophages. The cytotoxic effects were not statistically different (p<0.05) among the experimental groups. In conclusion, chemical components released from SB in aqueous environment were highly toxic to cell culture and thus an inflammatory pulpal response should be considered during the clinical application of dental adhesives.
RESUMO
O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o potencial de citotoxicidade do sistema adesivo Adper Single Bond 2 (SB), em função dos tempos pós-polimerização e imersão no meio de cultura para preparação dos extratos, observando-se os níveis de liberação de óxido nítrico (NO) e taxa de sobrevivência celular (MTT assay). Macrófagos alveolares de ratos Wistar foram expostos a 200 μL de extratos obtidos a partir da imersão de amostras do adesivo em meio de cultura (RPMI), imediatamente ou 24 h após sua polimerização, onde permaneceram durante 24 ou 72 h. RPMI puro e lipopolissacarídeos de E. coli foram utilizados como controles negativo e positivo, respectivamente. As células foram levadas à incubadora umidificada por 24 h. Os resultados foram submetidos ao teste "t" de Student (α=5 por cento). As quantidades de NO produzido e células sobreviventes foram significativamente diferentes entre os grupos experimentais e grupos controle, mostrando que, independente do tempo pós-polimerização e tempo de elaboração dos extratos, o sistema adesivo causou uma intensa citotoxicidade sobre os macrófagos. Os efeitos citotóxicos não foram estatisticamente diferentes entre os grupos experimentais. Componentes químicos do SB liberados em meio aquoso podem ser altamente citotóxicos para as células em cultura e, portanto, uma resposta inflamatória pulpar deve ser considerada durante a aplicação clínica de adesivos dentinários.
