Drug: Differentiation Markers
Registration Number
NCT04713436
Lead Sponsor
Eskisehir Osmangazi University
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the indirect effects of antibiotic combinations. SCAP viability, proliferation and apoptosis of the cells were evaluated. Osteocalcin (BGLAP), dentin sialo phosphoprotein (DSPP) and alkaline phosphatase (ALPP) gene expression levels were also evaluated.

Detailed Description

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the indirect effects of triple (TAP- ciprofloxacin, metronidazole and minocycline), double (DAP- ciprofloxacin and metronidazole) and modified triple antibiotic pastes (mTAP- ciprofloxacin, metronidazole and cefaclor) on mesenchmal stem cells derived from apical papilla (SCAP). SCAP were isolated from the impacted third molar teeth of the young adults. TAP, DAP and mTAP treatment (14-day medication and 28-day medication) were applied on SCAP and viability, proliferation and apoptosis of the cells were evaluated after four weeks. Osteocalcin (BGLAP), dentin sialo phosphoprotein (DSPP) and alkaline phosphatase (ALPP) gene expression levels were also evaluated.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Measurment of Cell Viability and Apoptosis1 year

To evaluate cell viability and apoptosis MuseCell Analyzer Count and Viability kit (Merck Millipore, Taufkirchen, Germany) was used according to the manufacturer's protocol.

Measurment of cell differantiation1 year

To determine gene expression levels, total RNA of SCAP was extracted using the Ambion PureLink RNA mini kit (Invitrogen, US) and the Roche cell RNA Kit (Penzberg, Germany) according to the manufacturer's instructions.
