| Abstract | |
A filling material must have good biological and physicochemical, since you\'ll be in close contact with the periapical tissues. Thus it should not be irritating to the surrounding tissues, allowing, or even encouraging, the repair of the periapical region, for it must not alter the inflammatory process. The present study evaluated the cytotoxicity of AH Plus, Sealapex, MTA and Fillapex Sealepox in human neutrophils. Human neutrophils cultured in the presence or absence of LPS cements were treated with different dilutions (1:1, 1:4, 1:8 , 1:16, 1:32) and setting time (24 and 48 hours) for 24 hours. Cell viability was analyzed by flow cytometry, the dosage of CXCL8 by ELISA and nitric oxide in absorbance at 540 nm. Data were analyzed with the aid of GraphPad Prism5 ANOVA for the first criterion followed by Tukey test, and values considered significant when p < 0.05. The AH Plus sealer interfered only in NO synthesis , stimulating it , having a 1:16 dilution better biological behavior , in both experimental periods . The Sealapex decreased production of NO, with 1:32 significant to within 48 hours. The MTA Fillapex induced apoptosis, production of CXCL8 (1:4 to 1:8 within 48 hours) and reduced NO synthesis (1:32 in 48 hours). Sealepox decreased apoptosis (1:16 and 1:32 in 24 hours) and interfere with the production of CXCL8, reducing it (1:8 in 48 hours, and 1:16 in both periods). The cytotoxicity of the cements in ascending order were: AH Plus, Sealapex, MTA and Fillapex Sealepox. We conclude that AH Plus and Sealapex cements were less cytotoxic than less interfered with cell viability and function ( CXCL8 and noninduced NO production ) both in 24 hours and in 48 hours. MTA and Fillapex Sealepox, although most causing cell death and interferes the production of NO and CXCL8, their effects may be acceptable, since the levels of these changes are so mild, non-aggressive.
