Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
New strategies for surface modification have been explored to promote osseointegration and osteogenesis, which are crucial factors for the success of titanium dental implants. Coating the titanium surface with mRNA encoding therapeutic growth factors may achieve these objectives. In our pilot study, we employed green fluorescent protein (GFP) mRNA as a model. Our investigation focused on determining whether titanium disks coated with GFP mRNA encapsulated with lipid nanoparticles and collagen Type I (GFP mRNA-Col) could enhance transfection in human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs), in comparison to titanium disks coated with GFP mRNA alone, without collagen. We tested various …

Scaffold plays a key role in the context of tissue engineering. It not only provides a structural support for cells, but also creates an appropriate milieu for recruited cells, enhancing the therapeutic effects of cell-based treatments, and enabling the controlled release of biological cues such as growth factors. Collagen is widely used scaffold material in tissue engineering, particularly in periodontal and bone regeneration. Other natural polymers, however, have been developed and can be useful. Therefore, in this study, we aim to investigate the ability of four different natural polymers including collagen, chitosan, silk fibroin, and silk fibroin/gelatin hydrogel in promoting …

The complete regeneration of periodontal tissues following current periodontal therapy remain challenging and unpredictable. Nucleoside-modified messenger RNA (mRNA) technology can be a promising novel platform in regenerative medicine. The aims of this study were to evaluate whether pseudouridine modified mRNA encoding vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) could induce VEGF production in human periodontal ligament cells (PDLCs) and this translated protein function by promoting in vivo blood vessel formation using chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay. Isolated PDLCs from healthy periodontal tissue were transfected with modified mRNA encoding VEGF (VEGF mRNA) complexed with a transfecting agent, Lipofectamine 2000 (L2000) and L2000 alone (control). …

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
Peri-implantitis is a biological complication that possibly occur following the placement of titanium dental implants. Treatments include both non-surgical and surgical modalities. During surgical procedure, several techniques have been introduced to decontaminate the infected implant surface. The aim of this systematic review was to assess the effectiveness of the implantoplasty technique in the treatment of peri-implantitis, by investigating the changes in the clinical and radiographic parameters of peri-implant tissues after treatment and assessing both the short and long-term implant survival following the implantoplasty. A systematic review was conducted by searching electronic online (PubMed, Scopus, EMBASE) databases, published between January 2000 …

MSCs exert their immunomodulatory effects on various immune cells by cell-cell contact and cytokines secretion. Our previous study has demonstrated that supracrestal gingival connective tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (SG-MSCs) were recognized to be a good candidate for periodontal regeneration. SG-MSCs showed the similar potential to PDL-MSCs and held significant advantage over PDL-MSCs by which a tooth extraction is not required. In terms of immunomodulatory properties, the effect of SG-MSCs on macrophage has never been explored. This study was aimed to investigate the effects of SG-MSCs on macrophages by cocultured SG-MSCs and THP-1-derived macrophages (THP-1-MPs) in direct cell-cell contact condition. Briefly, …

Current modalities for periodontal regeneration provide modest success, however complete periodontal regeneration is still not achievable. Recently in vitro synthesized nucleoside-modified messenger RNA (mRNA) has emerged as a novel platform in regenerative medicine. The aims of this study are to investigate the ability of human periodontal ligament cells (PDLCs), clinically relevant target cells, to produce bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2), a significant protein for bone formation after transfected with modified mRNA that encode this protein. We investigated the ability of translated protein for enhancing PDLC proliferation and promotes endothelial cell tube formation, marker of angiogenesis. Isolated PDLCs from healthy periodontal tissue …

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
Messenger RNA (mRNA) has emerged as a novel therapeutic modality in medical fields, including regenerative medicine. The concept of mRNA-based therapy is to use synthesized mRNA encoding therapeutic protein delivered to target tissue. Thus, mRNA encoding growth factor could be a promising alternative to recombinant protein. Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is one of most extensively studied growth factors for periodontal regeneration. To date, mRNA therapy has never been explored in the field of periodontal regeneration. The aim of the study is to examine the effect of nucleoside-modified mRNA encoding PDGF-BB on the level of PDGF-BB protein and inflammatory response at …

Since the mRNA platform has been recently introduced to several fields in medicine and the achievement of periodontal regeneration is currently unpredictable, therefore, the use of mRNA technology is a promising approach to pursue the complete periodontal regeneration. The aims of this study are to learn if mRNA encoding platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB) induces PDGF production in human periodontal ligament cells (PDLCs) and to investigate the effect of secreted PDGF on PDLC proliferation and promoting endothelial cell tube formation. PDLCs were obtained from extracted teeth of healthy periodontal patients. The N1-methylpseudouridine modified mRNA encoding PDGF-BB were transfected into PDLCs. The …

Association Between Chronic Periodontitis And Hypertension Among Thai Adults, Ploysiri Rassamee
Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
Previous studies suggest that periodontitis may be associated with an increasing risk of hypertension. However, data from large epidemiological studies are limited. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to examine the association between periodontitis and hypertension using data from a cohort study in a Thai population. The study population comprised of 1,378 employees of the Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT), aged 53 to 73 years old, were categorized into no/mild, moderate, or severe periodontitis groups. Hypertension was determined as having systolic blood pressure 140 mmHg or more or diastolic blood pressure 90 mmHg or more, or taking antihypertensive …

Expression Of Inflammatory Mediators In Cd103+ And Cd103- T Cells Isolated From Periodontitis Tissue, Benjarat Isaraphithakkul
Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)
Despite the important role of tissue - resident memory T (TRM) cells in immunity and pathology of mucosal tissues, the study of tissue-resident memory T cells in periodontitis tissues is limited. Previous investigation in our laboratory identified the localization of TRM (CD103+ T cells) in periodontitis tissue. However, their function is not known. The aim of this study is to investigate the production of inflammatory mediators by CD103+ and CD103- T cells in periodontitis tissue. Human periodontal tissues were obtained from patients with severe chronic periodontitis. Intracellular cytokine staining was performed and expression of CD103, interferon gamma (IFN-γ), interleukin-17 (IL-17) …
