Coating characteristics of dental implants such as composition and topography regulate cell response during implant healing. The aim of this study was to assess how surface topography can affect osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) by analyzing the expression levels of bone-related genes and MSCs marker. Thirty disk-shaped, commercially pure Grade 2 titanium samples (1 × 2 mm) with 3 different surface topographies (DENTSPLY-Friadent GmbH, Mannheim, Germany) were used in the present study: 1 Ti machined disks (control), 1 Ti sandblasted and acid-etched disks (DPS®) and 1 sandblasted and acid-etched disks at high temperature (Plus®). Samples were processed for real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis. By comparing machined and Plus® disks, quantitative real-time RT-PCR showed a significant reduction of the bone-related genes osteocalcin (BGLAP) and osteoblast transcriptional factor (RUNX2). The comparison between DPS® and Plus® disks showed a slight induction of all the genes examined (RUNX2, ALPL, COL1A1, COL3A1, ENG, FOSL1, SPP1, and SP7); only the expression of BGLAP remained stable. The present study, demonstrated that implant surface topography affects osteoblast gene expression. Indeed, Plus® surface produces an effect on MSCs in the late differentiation stages.

Parathyroid hormone (PTH) stimulates bone remodeling and induces differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSCs) by orchestrating activities of local factors such as bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs). The activity and specificity of different BMP ligands are controlled by va...
