Abstract

The use of collagen membranes has remained the gold standard in GTR/GBR. In this study, the features and the biological activities of an acellular porcine dermis collagen matrix membrane applicable during dental surgery were investigated, and also by applying hydration with NaCl. Thus, two tested membranes were distinguished, the H-Membrane and Membrane, compared to the control cell culture plastic. The characterization was performed by SEM and histological analyses. In contrast, the biocompatibility was investigated on HGF and HOB cells at 3, 7, and 14 days by MTT for proliferation study; by SEM and histology for cell interaction study; and by RT-PCR for function-related genes study. In HOBs seeded on membranes, mineralization functions by ALP assay and Alizarin Red staining were also investigated. Results indicated that the tested membranes, especially when hydrated, can promote the proliferation and attachment of cells at each time. Furthermore, membranes significantly increased ALP and mineralization activities in HOBs as well as the osteoblastic-related genes ALP and OCN. Similarly, membranes significantly increased ECM-related and MMP8 gene expression in HGFs. In conclusion, the tested acellular porcine dermis collagen matrix membrane, mainly when it is hydrated, behaved as a suitable microenvironment for oral cells.
