Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) and propolis from Shangdong province on the cell viability, mineralization and migration and anti-inflammatory ability of dental pulp fibroblasts. METHODS: The human dental pulp fibroblasts were cultured and subjected to 10 mg/L of propolis and 1:8 dilution of MTA extraction. The cell viability was evaluated with cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) after 1, 5, 7 and 9 days. The cells in the upper inserts and the test culture media on the bottoms of 24-well plates interacted for 15 hours. Then the numbers of cells migrated through the permeable membranes were compared. The cells seeded in the 24-well plates were incubated in osteogenic medium with different materials for 21 days and stained with alizarin red S, then photographed. To evaluate the deposition of calcified matrix, the wells were destained with 100 mmol/L cetylpyridinium chloride. Finally, the cells were exposed to 1 mg/L lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to induce an inflammatory response, in the presence of propolis, MTA extraction. The cells were collected after 3 h, and the expressions of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) were determined using real-time polymerase chain reaction (real-time PCR). Statistical analysis was performed by one-way ANOVA and nonparametric tests (P<0.05). RESULTS: The cell viability of propolis group was significantly lower than those of MTA and control groups on days 5, 7 and 9, while MTA significantly increased the numbers of the viable cells on days 7 and 9. The migration cells of propolis group (26.67±2.52) were fewer than control group (61.33±4.93), and the cells of MTA group (80.00±2.65) were statistically more than those of the other two groups. The propolis group significantly induced more calcified matrix deposition than MTA group after 21 days of culture. Propolis significantly suppressed the expressions of IL-1β and IL-6 after LPS exposure compared with MTA and control groups. CONCLUSION: The propolis from Shandong compared with MTA showed a certain degree of cytotoxicity, and had no significant effect on cell migration. On the other hand, propolis exhibited significant anti-inflammatory and mineralization promotion effect, suggesting that the active ingredients of propolis could be introduced as a supplement of pulp capping materials, or used as an irrigant or intracanal medicament due to its excellent anti-inflammatory effect. Propolis may have potential in vital pulp treatment of young permanent tooth suffering pulp inflammation.
