Abstract
-
Objectives This study aimed to evaluate in vitro the effects of the self-adhesive resin cements RelyX U200 (3M ESPE) and seT PP (SDI Limited) on murine macrophages and the interference of the photoactivation.
-
Materials and Methods Cell viability assays, cell adherence, yeast phagocytosis of Saccharomyces boulardii and production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) were performed in the presence of capillaries containing the respective self-adhesive cement when photoactivated or not.
-
Results After long periods of contact, both types of cements, when not photoactivated, are more cytotoxic for macrophages. The seT PP cement when only chemically activated seems to interfere more negatively in the process of phagocytosis of yeasts S. boulardii. Both types of cements interfere in the cell adhesion process, independent of photoactivation. None of the types of cements tested was able to induce the production of ROS.

Conclusions Our results highlight the great importance of the photoactivation of self-adhesive resin cements in the dental clinic, since RelyX U200, when photoactivated, presented the best results within the evaluated parameters.
INTRODUCTION
Self-adhesive resin cements were recently introduced in dentistry with the promise of allying high performance in fixed prosthesis cementation and simplification of operative steps [1]. In general, it is a consensus in the literature that resinous materials present a high cytotoxic and genotoxic potential in several cell types including fibroblasts, cells derived from bovine dental pulp, odontoblasts, cultures of lymphocytes, and macrophages [2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11].
Adequate polymerization is essential to achieve excellence in the clinical performance of resinous materials. However, the maximum degree of conversion of monomers achieved during the polymerization is approximately 60%, due to the gradual increase of viscosity reached by the material during the reaction, and other factors, such as the diffusion and contact of free residual monomers can alter cellular metabolism, even at concentrations below the toxic threshold, and, consequently, induce adverse clinical effects [10,12,13,14].
Macrophages play a decisive role in the immune response and the tissue repair process. In the pulp and periapical tissues, macrophages are responsible for phagocytosis, presentation of antigens and production of inflammatory mediators, playing a central role in pulpal inflammation and repair of periapical changes [15,16].
Macrophages are essential in the elimination of pathogens during infections and in the healing process. Hence, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of the self-adhesive resin cements RelyX U200 (3M ESPE, St. Paul, MN, USA) and seT PP (SDI Limited, Victoria, Australia) on viability, cell adhesion, phagocytosis and production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by murine macrophages. Additionally, the effects of the photoactivation of these types of cement for the same parameters were evaluated.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A total of 30 female C57BL/6 mice, between 4–8 weeks of life were used in this study. The choice of the animals was based on previous studies from our group with C57BL/6 mice. The animals were obtained from the Biotersic Center of the Federal University of Minas Gerais (CEBIO-UFMG, Belo Horizonte, MG, Brazil), and were kept in a conventional animal house with barriers, temperature and light control. Food and water were offered ad libitum. The experimental protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee on the Use of Animals of the Federal University of Minas Gerais (CEUA-UFMG) under protocol No. 181/2017.
Macrophages were isolated from the peritoneal cavity of the mice 5 days after peritoneal injection of 2 mL thioglycolate 3% (Biobrás S.A., Montes Claros, MG, Brazil). The animals were sacrificed after the overdose of anesthetics. Cells were resuspended in complete medium: RPMI 1640 without phenol red (Sigma Chemicals Co., St. Louis, MO, USA), supplemented with 10% of fetal calf serum (Nutricell, Campinas, SP, Brazil), 0.1% of 0.05 mol L) 1 b-mercaptoethanol (Sigma Chemicals Co.), 0.2% of penicillin (100 U/mL)/streptomycin (0.1 mg/mL and 200 mmol/L) l-glutamine [17].
The supernatant was discarded and the cells resuspended in RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (Nutricell) and 0.2% penicillin (100 U/mL)/streptomycin (0.1% mg/mL). More than 90% of the recovered cells had macrophage morphological characteristics when visualized by light microscopy.
The self-adhesive resin cement RelyX U200 (base paste: methacrylate monomers containing phosphoric acid groups, methacrylate monomers, silanated fillers, initiator components, stabilizers, rheological additives; catalyst paste: methacrylate monomers, alkaline [basic] fillers, silanated fillers, initiator components, stabilizers, pigments, rheological additives) and seT PP (35% by weight methacrylate ester, 65% by weight inorganic filler) were spatulated under sterile conditions in laminar flow hood, according to orientations of the respective manufacturers. The cement was then inserted into the ends of glass capillaries (Micron, Trianon Ind. And Com. Ltda, São Paulo, SP, Brazil) previously sectioned and sterilized. Half of the capillaries containing both types of cement were photoactivated with the aid of the BluePhase G2 apparatus (Ivoclar-Vivadent, Amherst, NY, USA) in the soft mode for 20 seconds, and the other half was not photoactivated. Empty glass capillaries were used as a control group. Later, the capillaries were sterilized with ethylene oxide. After sterilization, the groups were divided as follows: G1 - RelyX U200 without photoactivation, G2 - RelyX U200 photoactivated, G3 - seT PP without photoactivation, G4 - seT PP photoactivated and G5 - control group.
Cells were cultured for 24, 48, and 72 hours. Cellular viability was determined by the trypan blue exclusion assay [18]. Briefly, 1 mL of cell suspension containing 5 × 105 cells was inoculated into 24-well plates (Nunclon, Nalge Nunc International, Naperville, IL, USA) and incubated in a humidified atmosphere containing 5% CO2 at 37°C with capillaries containing photoactivated cement or not, in addition to empty capillaries. After each period, the capillaries were removed with the aid of a sterile tweezer and cell viability was determined. The living and dead cells were counted, and the results were expressed as percentages. Three trials were performed in triplicate.
Polypropylene tubes containing macrophages were incubated for 2 hours with capillaries (test and control groups) in an incubator with a humidified atmosphere containing 5% CO2, at 37°C. Tubes were agitated in a vortex agitator for 5 seconds, at low speed. Twenty microliters of the cellular suspension were removed, placed into a Newbauer chamber and incubated for 1 hour at 37°C as above. The percentage of adherent and nonadherent macrophages was then established by counting under an optical microscope [19]. The trial was performed twice in triplicate.
Cells (1 × 106 in 1 mL) were incubated for 2 hours in 24-well culture plates (Nunclon), onto round glass coverslips (Glasstécnica, São Paulo, SP, Brazil) in an incubator as above. Nonadherent cells were removed by washing with a warm complete medium, afterwards 107 colony-forming units of Saccharomyces boulardii (Floratil, Merck S.A., Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil) and capillaries with or without self-adhesive resin cement were added to the medium and plates were incubated for 1 hour. Unbound yeast cells were removed by washing with a complete medium, and the coverslips were covered for 1 minute with 1 mL of tannic acid at 1% (Merck S.A.) so that the distinction could be made between extracellular and intracellular yeast cells. One drop of fetal calf serum was applied onto each coverslip. The dried coverslips were stained with Panótico Rápido (Laborclin Ltd, Pinhais, PR, Brazil) and glued to microscope glass slides with Entellan (Merk) for observation under an optical microscope at ×1,000 magnification in oil immersion [20]. To determine the percentages of macrophages with phagocyted yeast, the percentages of macrophages with adhered yeast, as well as the number of phagocyted yeast/cells, a minimum of 200 cells were counted [21]. Two trials were performed in triplicate.
Cells were cultured in polypropylene tubes in an incubator as above. After 24 hours, 1 × 106 cells were transferred to a C96 White Maxisorp (Nalgene, Rochester, NY, USA) plate in 100 µL; 107 Zymosan A particles (Sigma Chemicals Co.) and 0.05 mmol L−1 luminol in 1640 RPMI without phenol red were added to each well. Plates were read every 2 minutes for 118 minutes in a luminometer (LumiCount, Packard Instrument Company Inc., Downers Grove, IL, USA) [22]. This procedure will measure the luminol-amplified chemiluminescence due to the production of superoxide, hydroxyl radical and oxygen peroxide in response to ingestion of zymosan particles by phagocytes [22]. Results were expressed as the area under each of the curves obtained in the 118-minute period [21]. Two trials were performed in triplicate.
All the results were analyzed in the GraphPad Prism program (GraphPad Software Inc., San Diego, CA, USA), in which the parametric analysis of variance (ANOVA) test (multiple comparisons) was used, and the proposed analyzes were considered significant when p < 0.05.
RESULTS
The cell viability of macrophages is shown in Figure 1. The effects of photoactivation were noted at 48 and 72 hours. When only chemically activated, both types of cement had a significant reduction in the number of viable cells in relation to the photoactivated and control groups (p < 0.05). In 72 hours, seT PP showed a significant reduction of viable cells independent of the photoactivation when compared to the control group (p < 0.05).

DISCUSSION
Self-adhesive resin cement was introduced in the dental market in 2002 to overcome the deficiencies of conventional cement used in the cementation of indirect restorations and at the same time reduce the number of operative steps [23].
The degree of conversion of monomers into self-adhesive resin cement may vary from 37% when photoactivated for 20 seconds to 58% when photoactivated for 40 seconds, showing that the manufacturer’s recommended photoactivation time may often be insufficient [24,25]. The cytotoxicity of resinous materials, including self-adhesive cement, is strongly related to their composition, pH and polymerization [26]. The interaction between resinous materials and cells, at the molecular level, may be responsible for several tissue reactions such as inflammation, immunological alterations, and genotoxicity, necrosis and cell apoptosis [4,27,28,29].
Our results demonstrated that, in general, both types of cements when not photoactivated are more cytotoxic to macrophages after long periods of contact and that RelyX U200 does not interfere significantly with cellular viability even in long periods. According to a previous study, macrophages in contact with RelyX Unicem photoactivated presented a superior survival rate concerning cultures exposed to chemically activated cement [26]. Similar results were found in odontoblasts cultures exposed to RelyX U200 in relation to other commercial brands [30]. It is known that RelyX U200 does not contain HEMA in its composition, and previous studies have shown that the absence of this monomer can result in lower cytotoxic effects in odontoblasts and cells derived from the dental pulp, in relation to those cement containing it in its composition [5,31]. According to the manufacturer, RelyX U200 has a considerable increase of pH during the photoactivation, approaching neutrality [8]. This fact is confirmed by its predecessor RelyX Unicem which presented the highest pH values after photoactivation for 20 seconds than other brands of self-adhesive resin cement [32]. On the other hand, recent studies have demonstrated a high cytotoxic and genotoxic potential of RelyX U200 in cells derived from dental pulp and fibroblasts [4,6]. This may be due to the high levels of camphorquinone in its composition which, when photoactivated inadequately, can induce high oxidative stress and damage to the DNA of gingival fibroblasts [30,33].
This study showed that, if only chemically activated, seT PP showed a lower rate of cell viability after long periods in contact with cultures of macrophages, besides a substantial interference in the process of phagocytosis of S. boulardii yeasts by the same macrophages. Recent studies have evaluated the adhesion strength, pH and degree of conversion of monomers during the photoactivation of several commercial brands of self-reducing resin cement. It has been shown that among the commercial brands evaluated, the seT PP cement presents the lowest conversion rates of monomers and lower values, which may explain its negative performance in this study, when it does not show a high photo dependence after 20 seconds of photoactivation, in relation to other commercial photoactivated brands [32].
Besides, the adhesion process and phagocytosis are highly influenced by the presence of dental materials, and endodontic cement [18,34]. On the other hand, cement considered to be highly biocompatible, such as mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), does not appear to alter the phagocytosis capacity of macrophages [21]. However, when associated with resinous components such as the Fillapex MTA, the phagocytic activity of both macrophages is substantially impaired [35].
In this study, all cultures exposed to self-adhesive resin cement produced levels of ROS similar to the negative control group. However, when stimulated by zymosan A, the cultures of macrophages in contact with the self-adhesive resin cement presented lower levels of ROS than the positive control. The production of ROS in cell cultures exposed to methacrylate monomers is strongly associated with their mechanisms of cytotoxicity and cellular apoptosis [36]. Receptor occupancy assays were performed after 24 hours of contact between macrophages and self-adhesive resin cement, and in this period none of the experimental groups was able to significantly reduce the number of viable cells, possibly explaining the basal production of the non-stimulated cultures. Some studies have also evaluated the interference in the production of ROS against resin cement. In one of these studies, extracts of RelyX Unicem presented similar results to the negative control group, being unable to induce ROS production in cells derived from the bovine dental pulp, however, in cells derived from the human dental pulp the same extracts were able to induce high production of ROS [5]. Another study demonstrated that extracts of triethylene glycol dimethacrylate, a monomer present in RelyX U200, strongly induced the production of ROS in a salivary gland cell line [37].
CONCLUSIONS
Within the limitations of this study, our results highlight the great importance of the photoactivation of self-adhesive resin cements in the dental clinic. Therefore, the RelyX U200 and seT PP cements when photoactivated showed less interference in the viability and activity of murine macrophages.
