Platelet‐Rich Plasma Contains High Levels of Platelet‐Derived Growth Factor and Transforming Growth Factor‐β and Modulates the Proliferation of Periodontally Related Cells In Vitro

TL;DR: It is suggested PRP modulates cell proliferation in a cell type-specific manner similar to what has been observed with TGF-beta1 and may be beneficial for periodontal regenerative therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Platelet‐Rich Plasma Combined With a Porous Hydroxyapatite Graft for the Treatment of Intrabony Periodontal Defects in Humans: A Comparative Controlled Clinical Study

TL;DR: Treatment with a combination of PRP and HA compared to HA with saline led to a significantly more favorable clinical improvement in intrabony periodontal defects.
Journal ArticleDOI

A cell line with characteristics of the periodontal ligament fibroblasts is negatively regulated for mineralization and Runx2/Cbfa1/Osf2 activity, part of which can be overcome by bone morphogenetic protein-2.

TL;DR: Cloned and characterized cell lines from the periodontal ligament and demonstrated that a cell line, designated PDL-L2, mimics the gene expression of the PDL in vivo: it expresses genes such as alkaline phosphatase, type I collagen, periostin, runt-related transcription factor-2 (Runx2) and EGF receptor, but does not express genessuch as bone sialoprotein and osteocalcin.
Journal ArticleDOI

In Vitro Evidence That the Biological Effects of Platelet‐Rich Plasma on Periodontal Ligament Cells Is Not Mediated Solely by Constituent Transforming‐Growth Factor‐β or Platelet‐Derived Growth Factor

TL;DR: Comparing the effects of PRP with those of known recombinant growth factors on cell proliferation, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, and collagen synthesis in human PDL cell cultures supports the concept that PRP-constituent TGF-beta1 acts as a significant growth factor on PDL cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clarification of the predominant emission sources of antimony in airborne particulate matter and estimation of their effects on the atmosphere in Japan

TL;DR: In this article, the authors identify automotive brake abrasion dust and fly ash emitted from waste incineration as dominant sources of atmospheric Sb in Japan and provide important clues to understand the cycles and fates of antimony in the environment.
