Induction of DNA double-strand breaks in human gingival fibroblasts by eluates from titanium dioxide modified glass ionomer cements
Dental Materials Dec 08, 2017
Laiteerapong A, et al. - The genotoxicity of a glass ionomer cement (GIC) and GIC incorporated with titanium dioxide nanopoarticle (TiO2NPs) and with microparticle (TiO2MPs) was investigated on DNA double-strand breaks of human gingival fibroblast cells (HGFs). Furthermore, the authors aimed to compare the genotoxic differences between GIC and 2 modified cements. No genotoxic effect was observed with GIC or 10% TiO2-modified GICs on HGFs. Compared to GIC, both TiO2NPsGIC and TiO2MPsGIC demonstrated less genotoxic effect. They found no genotoxic difference between the modified cements from different particle sizes (nanoparticle and micro-particle) of TiO2 when comparing between the 2 modified cements.
