As pulp calcification occurs at least fifty percent of total teeth, the focal calcification in pulp chamber usually appears in all age groups. However, the pulp calcification is one of the important pathologic changes affecting the pulp vitality. In order to elucidate the mechanism of pulp calcification during the retrogressive degeneration of pulp tissue we performed an immunohistochemical study for proteases (MMP-3, MMP-10, and cathepsin-G), antiproteases (TIMP-1, α1- AT) and proteins involving tissue protection (TGase-2 and HSP-70). In the normal pulp tissue MMP-3 and MMP-10 were weakly expressed, but cathepsin-G and TIMP-1 were rarely expressed. Around the calcifying tissue of MMP-3, MMP- 10, and α1-AT were predominant, but TIMP-1 and cathepsin-G were sparsely expressed. On the other hands, TGase-2 and HSP-70 were condensed in the proximal fibrous tissue. These data suggest that the pulp calcification is related to retrogressive pulp degeneration, which could be resulted in the incomplete digestion of the degenerated stromal tissue by different proteases. We presume that the aberrant protease digestion of chronic pulpal pathosis, i.e., sclerotic fibrosis, chronic pulp degeneration, etc., may enhance the dystrophic calcification in dental pulp.

MMPs are catalytic enzymes involved in the degradation of extracellular marix, and associated with invasive growth and metastasis of malignant tumors along with angiogenesis. This study was to evaluate the prognostic significance of VEGF expression and microvessel density(MVD) and the relationship between VEGF expression, MVD and MMPs expression in oral squamous cell carcinomas(OSCC). The materials were from 52 cases of OSCC during a period from 1991 to 2001. Clinicopathologic parameters such as clinical stage, recurrence, histologic grade and invasion pattern were evaluated. Immunohistochemical staining for MMP-2, MMP-9, VEGF and CD34 were performed and statistical analyses between clinicopathologic parameters and VEGF expression and MVD were done. MMP-2, MMP-9 and VEGF expressions were noted in 30(57.7%), 21(40.1%) and 38(73.1%) of 52 cases, respectively. MVD was measurable in 35 cases, and cases with increased MVD more than average were 16(45.7%) of 35 cases. There was no significant relationship between clinicopathologic parameters and VEGF expression or MVD in OSCC, which suggests that VEGF expression and MVD can not be regarded as reliable prognostic factors. Cases with less infiltrative growth pattern showed a tendency of increased MVD, which can explain the possibility that neovascularization might be an early event of tumor invasion. Lack of significant relationship between MMPs, VEGF expressions and MVD might be due to limited number of cases, and positive correlation between MMP-2 and VEGF expression suggests that both factors might be involved in the process of angiogenesis in OSCC.

Cell adhesion is used as a parameter to evaluate the biocompatibility of dental implant and also affected by the surface form of dental implant. Most study have showed different cell reaction by the composition and the surface morphology of implant. Therefore it is thought that the osteoblastic activity would be affected by the surface roughness and composition of implants. This study was performed to evaluate the biological activity and morphological change of normal human osteoblastic cells(NHost) depending on the variations of implant surfaces. We used grade 2 titanium disks which were being air-blasted with TiO2 50 ㎛, 110 ㎛, 250 ㎛ powder by 3psi compressed air and non-blasted as control. We evaluated and compared morphologic change, adhesion assay, and Ca, P, ALP concentration of NHost in vitro. The obtained results were as follows. 1. In the growth curve, although the growth of experimental groups were lower than that of the group of NHost only, there was no significant difference between each groups. 2. Inverted microscopic findings showed NHosts in early stage of each group were adherant perpendicular to the titanium disk and the multilayered NHosts were attached with various directions after 4 weeks. 3. Scanning electron microscopic(SEM) features showed that NHosts in all groups seemed to be attached multilayered and connected with each process after 2 weeks. 4. NHosts' processes were found by the SEM after one day culture. The cell adhesion of experiment group was higher than that of control group. 110 ㎛(the 3rd group) showed prominant process of NHost on the titanium disk surface. 5. Although the concentrations of Ca, P and ALP were gradually reduced, ANOVA analysis of each groups were partially different, and ANOVA analysis of 4th group were significantly different with others. From the aboving results, NHosts cultured on the titanium disks showed similar morphological change and cell proliferation. There were partially differences in each group except the 4th group, and the 4th group were significantly different with other's in biological activity. We thought that biological activity and adhesion of NHost cell on titanium had been affected by the variation of the titanium surface roughness.

Established SGT cell line from human submandibular gland adenocarcinoma was used to study the TGase expression on a cellular level in vitro. Transglutaminase 2(TGase 2) is assoacitated with apoptosis, GTP binding protein, and cell marix interaction. The role of TGase 2 in salivary gland tumors is not clear yet. The pupose of this study were to examine the TGase expression of SGT cell line compared to other tumor cell lines, and to apply these results to the pathogenesis of salivary gland tumor. TGase enzyme assay of SGT, SCC-15, HN 4 and HeLa tumor cell line was 3 times repeated, and calculated. Immunoslot blot for semiquantitative protein analysis was done. The obtained results were as follows.
1. SGT cell line showed the highest TGase 2 enzyme activity(about 6-16 folds) irrespective of pre or postconfluency.
2. HN 4 cell line showed the highest TGase 1 enzyme activity(about 2-3 folds) irrespective of pre or postconfluency.
3. Under postconfluency TGase 1 induction was not induced, but slightly increased in all tumor cell lines.
4. TGase enzyme activity in all tumor cell lines was accompanied with TGase protein formation.
From the aboving results, the higher TGase 2 expression of SGT cell line suggested that they would come from submandibular ductal cells and have a important role in the pathogensis of salivary gland tumors.

E6 and E7 as two major oncoproteins of HPV can act together to produce several tumors, providing an evidence for the role HPV in oral squamous cell tumorogenesis. It is worthy to detect E6/E7 mRNA expression of HPV in oral carcinoma. The purpose of this study were to detect HPV mRNA in HNSCC cell lines, and to use these results to confirm oral squamous cell carcinoma. Semi-quantitative RT-PCR method for E7 mRNA expression in HNSCC cell lines should play an important role in detecting the early stage of oral squamous cell carcinoma.

A case of odontogenic ghost cell tumor (OGCT) with clear cell components occurred in the mandible of a 63-yearold man. The tumor revealed ameloblastomatous type epithelial components together with clusters of ghost cells and dentinoid juxtaposed to the odontogenic epithelium. In addition, some areas of the tumor tissue showed sheets and islands of clear, glycogen-rich epithelial cells, separated by a thin fibrous connective tissue stroma. Both ameloblastic and clear cells showed positive immunoreactivities for cytokeratin 19 and AE1/3. It is not known whether this tumor represents a clear cell differentiation of a preexisting OGCT or a separate and distinct neoplasm derived de novo from odontogenic epithelium. This tumor was preferred the term clear cell odontogenic ghost cell tumor, which captures the clear cell components, one of the tumors most prominent distinguishing features
