Journal ArticleDOI
Chlorhexidine Inhibits the Activity of Dental Cysteine Cathepsins
Polliana Mendes Candia Scaffa,Cristina de Mattos Pimenta Vidal,Nilana M.T. Barros,Tarsis F. Gesteira,Adriana K. Carmona,Lorenzo Breschi,David H. Pashley,Leo Tjäderhane,Ivarne L.S. Tersariol,Ivarne L.S. Tersariol,Fabio D. Nascimento,Marcela Carrilho +11 more
TL;DR: Results showed that CHX is a potent inhibitor of the cysteine cathepsins-proteolytic enzymes present in the dentin-pulp complex.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of Etch-and-Rinse and Self-etch Adhesives on Dentin MMP-2 and MMP-9
Annalisa Mazzoni,Polliana Mendes Candia Scaffa,Marcela Carrilho,Leo Tjäderhane,R. Di Lenarda,Antonella Polimeni,Arzu Tezvergil-Mutluay,F.R. Tay,David H. Pashley,Lorenzo Breschi +9 more
TL;DR: All two-step etch-and-rinse and the one-step self-etch adhesives tested can activate endogenous M MP-2 and MMP-9 in human dentin, and these results support the role of endogenous MMPs in the degradation of hybrid layers created by theseAdhesives.
Journal ArticleDOI
Abundance of MMPs and Cysteine Cathepsins in Caries-affected Dentin
Cristina de Mattos Pimenta Vidal,Leo Tjäderhane,Leo Tjäderhane,Polliana Mendes Candia Scaffa,Ivarne L.S. Tersariol,Ivarne L.S. Tersariol,David H. Pashley,Helena B. Nader,Fabio D. Nascimento,M.R. Carrilho +9 more
TL;DR: The high expression of CTs and MMPs in caries-affected teeth indicates that those host-derived enzymes are intensely involved with caries progression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Glass ionomer cements and their role in the restoration of non-carious cervical lesions
Luciana Fávaro Francisconi,Polliana Mendes Candia Scaffa,Vivian Rosa dos Santos Paes de Barros,Margareth Coutinho,Paulo Afonso Silveira Francisconi +4 more
TL;DR: The aim of this paper is to critically review the literature and discuss peculiar features of GICs regarding their role in the restoration of non-carious cervical lesions.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) on dentin bonding and nanoleakage of etch-and-rinse adhesives.
Leo Tjäderhane,Leo Tjäderhane,Leo Tjäderhane,Pekka Mehtälä,Polliana Mendes Candia Scaffa,Cristina de Mattos Pimenta Vidal,Virve Pääkkönen,Lorenzo Breschi,Josimeri Hebling,Franklin R. Tay,Fabio D. Nascimento,David H. Pashley,Marcela Carrilho,Marcela Carrilho +13 more
TL;DR: DMSO as a solvent may be useful in improving the preservation of long-term dentin-adhesive bond strength and may relate to dentinal enzyme inhibition or improved wetting of collagen by adhesives.
