Healing at sites prepared using different drilling protocols. An experimental study in the tibiae of sheep.

ABSTRACT: The aim of the experiment was to study the healing at implants installed in site prepared in bone type 1 using different rotation speeds and cooling strategies. The tibiae of twelve sheep were used as experimental sites. Two implant sites were prepared in each tibia using drills either at a high or a mixed speed under irrigation. At the mixed-speed sites, 60 rpm without irrigation were applied for the last drill, the countersink and during implant installation. Biopsies representing the healing after 1, 2, and 6 weeks were obtained and ground sections were prepared. At the histological analyses, after 1 week of healing, no new bone was found at both high- and mixed-speed sites. After 2 weeks of healing, small amounts of newly formed bone were observed in the cortical layer, reaching percentages of 3.6±3.0% at the mixed-speed sites, and of 2.2±1.5% at the high-speed sites. An irrelevant quantity of new bone was seen in the marrow compartments of a few specimens. After 6 weeks of healing, new bone was found in higher quantity, reaching in the cortical compartment 66.9±6.8% and 67.3±17.7% at the mixed- and high-speed sites, respectively. The respective percentages in the marrow compartment were 23.2±13.0% and 30.6±29.2%. No statistically significant differences between high- and mixed-speed groups were found. It was concluded that the use of the last drill and the installation of the implant with or without irrigation yielded similar bone healing and osseointegration.

Project description:BackgroundMouse models have been extremely valuable in identifying the fundamental mechanisms of airway inflammation that underlie human allergic asthma. Several models are commonly used, employing different methods and routes of sensitisation, and allergens of varying clinical relevance. Although all models elicit similar hallmarks of allergic airway inflammation, including airway eosinophilia, goblet cell hyperplasia and cellular infiltration in lung, it is not established whether they do so by involving the same mechanisms.ResultsWe compared the impact of inactivation of various innate or adaptive immune genes, as well as sex, in different models of allergic airway inflammation in mice of C57BL/6 background. Chicken ovalbumin (OVA) and house dust mite (HDM) were used as allergens in settings of single or multiple intranasal (i.n.) challenges, after sensitisation in adjuvant or in adjuvant-free conditions. Eosinophil numbers in the broncho-alveolar lavage and lung histopathology were assessed in each model. We found that Major Histocompatibility Complex Class II (MHCII) deficiency and lack of conventional CD4+ T cells had the most profound effect, essentially ablating airway eosinophilia and goblet cell hyperplasia in all models. In contrast, Thymic stromal lymphopoietin receptor (TSLPR) deficiency greatly reduced eosinophilia but had a variable effect on goblet cells. CD1d deficiency and lack of Natural Killer T (NKT) cells moderately impaired inflammation in OVA models but not HDM, whereas sex affected the response to HDM but not OVA. Lastly, defective Toll-like receptor (TLR)4 expression had only a relatively modest overall impact on inflammation.ConclusionAll the models studied were comparably dependent on adaptive CD4+ T cell responses and TSLP. In contrast, sex, NKT cells and TLR4 appeared to play subtler and more variable roles that were dependent on the type of allergen and mode of immunization and challenge. These results are consistent with clinical data suggesting a key role of CD4+ T cells and TSLP in patients with allergic asthma.
