This in vitro preliminary study investigated the attachment of Fusobacterium nucleatum and Porphyromonas gingivalis on titanium alloy healing abutments, which differed in their surface macro-morphology: one was groove-marked while the other was completely smooth. Altogether, twenty implant-healing abutments, ten of each macro-morphology, were evalu...

Background: Membrane durability is critical for regenerative procedures. We reported previously that type 1-like diabetes in rats accelerates the degradation of collagen membranes and we tested here whether this is associated with increased local production of inflammatory molecules as part of a diabetes-induced chronic inflammation around and wit...

Aim To examine the in vitro biokinetics of hyaluronic acid (HA) from a collagen membrane (CM) and to evaluate the in vivo effect of immersion of the CM in HA solution on its degradation in streptozotocin (STZ)‐induced diabetes conditions in a rat calvaria subcutaneous model. Background CM degradation is accelerated in uncontrolled diabetic rats. I...

... The current study, showing that diabetes increased 2.5-fold the number of macrophages inside the CM discs (Figs. 3, 4), is in agreement with these studies. In support of a hyperglycemia-induced local inflammation, a recent study using the same model reported that the expression and abundance of several inflammatory molecules (IL-6, TNFα, MMP-9, MIF, MIP-1α, and MIP-2α) in the tissues around and within CMs implanted in diabetic rats were markedly elevated, compared with those in normoglycemic rats [44]. ...
... A study on two wall intrabony defects in dogs which were treated with cHA and a collagen matrix highlighted the role of cHA in promoting periodontal wound healing/regeneration [15]. In diabetic rats, adding cHA to a collagen membrane prevented its premature degradation [52]. In vitro both cHA and ncHA increased early osteogenic differentiation of primary PDL broblasts [40]. ...
