Abstract: We evaluated the activities of both osteoblastic and osteoclastic differentiation on sandblasted/acid etched (SLA), hydrophilic SLA surfaces (modSLA) and pretreatment titanium (PT). The osteoblastic differentiation was evaluated by alkaline phosphatase analysis and Alizarin Red S staining, and the expression of bone-related proteins, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), osteopontin (OPN), and osteocalcin (OCN), was investigated by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Primary mice monocytes were expanded and differentiated in the presence of macrophage-colony stimulating factor (M-CSF), and osteoclastic differentiation was evaluated by actin ring formation assay and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) activity assay. Real-time PCR tests were performed to investigate the expression of gene mRNA expression levels in osteoclast cells. Differentiation of osteoblasts in the Alizarin Red S test staining and ALP assay was significantly increased in the modSLA surface. The preceding results were supported by the result of RT-PCR for the expression of Runx2, OPN, and OCN. As for osteoclastic activity, differentiated osteoclasts rarely existed on the SLA and modSLA surface with actin ring. The results of real-time PCR and TRAP activity supported the preceding results. It may be concluded that the modSLA surface promotes osteogenic effect and prevents osteoclastic differentiation. Promotion of osteoblastic proliferation after a short-term cell culture might be responsible for stimulated bone regeneration implying that early loading may be possible. Also, the anti-osteoclastic effect of the modSLA surface may contribute to maintenance of the marginal bone level of dental implants, implying long-term stability would be provided by this surface technology. The modSLA surface may not only make early loading possible but possibly reduce marginal bone loss during the maintenance phase.

Abstract: The aim of this study was to investigate biologic function of bone morphorgenic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) immobilized on the heparin-grafted Ti surface. Ti surfaces were first modified by 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (ATPES), followed by grafting of heparin. BMP-2 was then immobilized on the heparin-grafted Ti surfaces. Pristine Ti and functionalized Ti surfaces were characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), measurement of water contact angles, and protein adsorption. The biological activity of MG-63 cells on pristine and functionalized Ti surfaces was investigated by cell proliferation assays, measurement of alkaline phosphate (ALP) activity, and determination of calcium deposition. Anti-inflammatory effects were assessed by RT-PCR to measure the transcript levels of IL-6 and TNF-α. XPS revealed that heparin and BMP-2 were successfully grafted and immobilized on the Ti surfaces, respectively. In addition, Ti surfaces with BMP-2 immobilized were more hydrophilic than pristine Ti. Furthermore, BMP-2 immobilized Ti promoted significantly higher ALP activity and calcium deposition by MG-63 cells than pristine Ti. The inflammatory response was also decreased when cells were grown on heparin-grafted, BMP-2-immobilized Ti surfaces. The results of this study suggest that by grafting heparin and immobilizing BMP-2 on Ti surfaces, inflammation can be inhibited and osteoblast function promoted.
