The cells on the bioactive HAP surface were multinucleated and were larger than those on the untreated HAP surface. The cell occupancies were greater on the bioactive HAP surface than on the untreated HAP surface at 7, 14, 21, and 28 days of differentiation;in particular, the values at 21 and 28 days were significantly larger (P < 0.05 and P < 0.01, respectively). These findings show that the bioactive HAP surface may enhance the adhesion and differentiation of RAW 264.7 cells as well as osteoblast-like cells, indicating its potential as a superior surface for bone tissue engineering.展开更多

The purpose of the current in vitro study was to analyze tooth mobility resulting from periodontal attachment loss, and to determine the application range of both nPLI and rPLI. The association of horizontal load-displacement and conditions of attachment loss was measured in triplicate for each anatomical tooth model at 10-minute intervals, using a universal tester at a crosshead speed of 0.05 mm/min, and a load of 0.1 N. The conditions of attachment loss were: (I) 0 mm (cementoenamel junction), (II) 2 mm attachment level, and (III) two-thirds, and (IV) one-half lengths of normal attachment. Except for the upper first molar, lower lateral incisor, lower first premolar, and the lower first molar, the displacement of each tooth type was increased significantly relative to Level I (P P < 0.01). The results indicated that nPLI at two-thirds of normal attachment and greater, and rPLI at less than two-thirds of normal attachment should be applied, respectively.展开更多
