Effects of visible light-irradiated camphorquinone and 9-fluorenone on murine oral mucosa

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the histopathological effects of camphorquinone (CQ) and 9-fluorenone (9F) with or without visible light (VL) irradiation on the oral mucous membranes of mice. VL irradiation resulted in a higher degree of tissue damage after CQ or 9F application, particularly the latter. Necrosis and apoptosis were responsible for the tissue damage after application of either agent in the presence of VL irradiation.

“…Second, the subsequent addition of the photocrosslinker CQ, as a radical initiator added to the derivatized gelatin solution, was subjected to irradiation to produce a transparent and stiff scaffold (tube and membrane) without degrading the incorporated growth factors or ECM (membrane only). (The photocrosslinker CQ has been used in the dental field to prepare composites for humans without toxic side effects [45]). For all these reasons, these tubes will be translatable to human SCI repair [46].…”

“…Neurotrophin was detected in the culture medium by ELISA upon release from the membranes in vitro up to 21 days. Higher levels of rhBDNF were found when SCs were present, suggesting that SCs themselves released rhBDNF as well as the membranes [45, 46] and providing, at least in part, an explanation for improved cell survival and proliferation.…”

“…It can be seen from our results (Figure 2) that the bonding agents (XP Bond, and Adper Scotchbond SE) containing three of the mentioned toxic components (TEGDMA, UDMA, HEMA) were also found to be the most cytotoxic of the 7 bonding agents. Furthermore, XP Bond, and Adper Scotchbond SE in addition also contained the photo-initiator camphorquinone which is reported to be cytotoxic [34][35][36][37].…”

“…It is used in the manufacture of antimalaria drugs and other pharmaceuticals. 9F may cause phototoxic reactions in vitro and in vivo , in particular in the oral mucosa (36, 37). Beyond that, little is known about adverse reactions to 9F, in particular regarding skin.…”
