摘要
During regenerative endodontic procedures, the microenvironment of the canal is formed by the degree of disinfection and release of ions from the applied materials onto the top surface. This study aimed to characterize the effects of amnion-chorion membrane and collagen membrane on pulp-dentin regeneration compared to calcium silicate cements (CSCs), focusing on cell migration, mineralization potential, anti-inflammation, and angiogenesis.Two CSCs and 2 membranes were used: ProRoot MTA (Dentsply, Tulsa, OK, USA), RetroMTA (BioMTA, Seoul, Korea), Collagen Membrane (Genoss, Suwon, Korea), and BioXclude (amnion-chorion membrane; Snoasis Medical, Colorado, USA). Transwell and scratch assays were used to evaluate cell migration and wound healing. Mineralization potential was evaluated using alkaline phosphatase activity, Alizarin red S staining, and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction for the expression of marker genes. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction was used to measure the levels of angiogenic genes and inflammatory mediators. An endothelial tube formation assay was used to assess angiogenesis.The membranes showed superior migration and wound healing compared with CSCs. Except for RetroMTA, ProRoot MTA and the 2 membranes showed high alkaline phosphatase activity and mineralization nodule formation and upregulated mRNA expression of markers for mineralization. Membranes upregulated the mRNA of angiogenesis genes and increased the capillary tube formation of endothelial cells compared to CSCs. Furthermore, the membrane matrix decreased the expression of inflammatory genes.Collagen membrane and Amnion-chorion membrane showed prominent cell migration, angiogenesis, and healing effects against inflammation, as well as comparable mineralization potential compared to CSCs, recommending the use of membrane as a matrix.
