Comparative Osteogenesis of Radiopaque Dicalcium Silicate Cement and White-Colored Mineral Trioxide Aggregate in a Rabbit Femur Model

Abstract: The radiopaque dicalcium silicate cement (RDSC) displayed a shortened setting time and good biocompatibility. This study aimed to compare the regenerative potential of RDSC and white-colored mineral trioxide aggregate (WMTA) using a rabbit femur model. The animals were sacrificed at one, three and six months to accomplish histological and biochemical analyses. The results indicated that after one month of implantation, WMTA was associated with a greyish color alteration within its mass, while RDSC presented co… Show more

“…Cell viability and functions associated with implants are closely related to the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of the materials used [ 9 , 25 ], which in turn affect in vivo efficacy [ 26 ]. To elucidate the effects of plasma treatment and surface roughness on osteogenic activities, the biological functions of MG63 cells cultured on samples were evaluated.…”

“…The release of biologically active ions and the formation of a calcium phosphate layer on the surface may affect the behavior and gene expression of hAD-MSCs and trigger their osteogenic commitment. Indeed, calcium and silicon ions released from CaSi demonstrated to stimulate mineralizing cells proliferation [43][44][45]47,[56][57][58][59][60] enhancing the expression of several genes, such as pro-osteogenic genes (as osteocalcin, bone sialoprotein and alkaline phosphatase) [42][43][44][45][77][78][79] and pro-angiogenic genes [60]. PLA-based CaSi-DCPD-doped scaffolds revealed the ability to support the growth of vascular wall mesenchymal stem cells, stimulating the gene expression of several pro-angiogenic markers, including platelet-derived growth factor receptor-β (PDGFR-β), alpha smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), neuron-glial antigen 2 (NG2), and CD 90 [60].…”

“…Antibacterial dicalcium silicate cement Wu et al Ding 2010, Chiang et al 2014). However, it has the advantages of shorter setting time (<30 min) (Chiang & Ding 2010) and colour stability (Wu et al 2013). Nevertheless, further investigation is needed for preclinical trials.…”
