ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of near infra-red gallium-aluminium-arsenide (GaAlAs) diode laser (805 nm) irradiation on proliferation and differentiation of rat femoral bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) cultured in osteogenic medium. MATERIALS AND METHODS: BMSCs were obtained from femurs of 60 Sprague Dawley rats (200 gm). The control group comprised isolated BMSCs supplemented with an osteogenic differentiation medium. On the other hand, in the experimental group, the BMSCs were irradiated with a near-infrared laser in addition to an osteogenic differentiation medium. The experimental group was irradiated with a soft tissue laser comprising of allium-aluminium-arsenic (Ga-Al-Ar) Diode at a near-infrared wavelength of 805 nm in continuous mode. The different output powers applied were 0.5 W, 1.0 W, 1.5 W and 2.0 W respectively. Various energy levels of 1, 4, 7 and 10 J were used for irradiation. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) assay and Alizarin staining were performed to confirm osteogenic differentiation. Statistical analysis was done using a one-way ANOVA and a p-value of <0.05 was considered significant. RESULTS: According to our findings, 1.27 J/cm2 was the optimal energy density value that significantly increased the BMSC proliferation at the output of 1.5 W with the power density of 1.27 W/cm2. On 1.27 J/cm2, there was a significant difference compared to the control group on the first day, and the osteogenic differentiation increased significantly on the 4th day compared to the 1st day. CONCLUSIONS: According to our findings, 1.27 J/cm2 was the optimal energy density value that significantly increased the BMSC proliferation at the output of 1.5 W with the power density of 1.27 W/cm2.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study was to determine the expression of cell proliferating marker, anti-proliferating cell nuclear antigen (anti-PCNA) and mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) markers (anti-STRO-1 and anti-CD44) in periapical periodontitis and their role in the healing of periapical lesion in periapical periodontitis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Ninety Sprague-Dawley male rats (100 g) were divided into 3 groups: Experimental group I (EG I: n = 30), experimental group II (EG II: n=30) and control group (CG: n = 30). Periapical lesions were experimentally developed by leaving the dental pulp of maxillary first molars mesial root open to oral environment for 4 weeks. Conventional root canal treatment was performed in EG II. Maxillary first molars along with alveolar bone were resected and fixed. The processed samples were stained with routine hematoxylin and eosin (H&E), and evaluated immunohistochemically using antibodies against anti-PCNA, anti-STRO-1, and anti-CD44 polyclonal antibodies. Data were analyzed using Chi-square test and a p-value of <0.05 was considered significant. RESULTS: Immunostaining of anti-PCNA showed 30%, 70% and 53.3% positive staining in CG, EG I, and EG II, respectively (p<0.001). Moreover, the CD44 staining was 20% in CG in contrast to 63.6% in EG I and 43.3 in EG II. STRO-1 staining in CG was 10%, 50% in the EG I and 36.6% in the EG II (p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Periapical inflammatory tissues expressed significant proliferative cell marker PCNA and mesenchymal stem cell markers STRO-1, and CD44. These findings further reaffirm the promising role of mesenchymal stem cells in the healing of periapical periodontitis.
