"Kitosan dan deksametason merupakan material yang digunakan dalam rekayasa jaringan tulang. Kitosan biasa digunakan sebagai scaffold, sedangkan deksametason sering digunakan sebagai sinyal. Salah satu penanda diferensiasi osteoblas adalah Alkaline phosphatase (ALP). Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis efek kitosan dibandingkan deksametason dalam menginduksi diferensiasi osteoblas melalui aktivitas ALP pada sel punca pulpa gigi (SPPG). Aktivitas ALP dianalisis dengan ALP assay. Terdapat 4 perlakuan yang memiliki aktivitas ALP diatas kontrol, yakni kitosan 5 ng/ml, deksametason 10 nM dan 100 nM, serta campuran kitosan 5 ng/ml dan deksametason 10 nM. Peningkatan konsentrasi deksametason meningkatkan aktivitas ALP. Peningkatan konsentrasi kitosan menurunkan aktivitas ALP.

Chitosan and dexamethasone are materials that can be used in bone tissue engineering. Chitosan is often used as a scaffold, while dexamethasone is often used as signal. One of the markers of osteoblast differentiation is Alkaline phosphatase (ALP). This research objective is to analyse the effects of chitosan compared to dexamethasone in inducing osteoblast differentiation through ALP activity in Dental Pulp Stem Cells (DPSCs). ALP activity determined by ALP Assay. There were four treatments that have higher activity than the control, they are chitosan 5 ng/ml, 10 nM dexamethasone and 100 nM, and mixture of chitosan 5 ng/ml and 10 nM dexamethasone. The increased concentrations of dexamethasone increases ALP activity and the higher concentration of chitosan will decrease the ALP activity."

"Kitosan telah diketahui sebagai material scaffold poten pada rekayasa jaringan tulang. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis potensi lain kitosan sebagai induktor diferensiasi sel punca pulpa gigi (SPPG) menjadi osteoblas dibandingkan dengan deksametason yang telah umum digunakan, melalui ekspresi mRNA Col1A1. SPPG dikultur pada medium yang mengandung kitosan, deksametason dan kombinasi keduanya selama 7 hari. Ekspresi mRNA Col1A1 diuji dengan metode comparative CT real-time PCR. Medium mineralizing yang ditambahkan 5 ng/ml kitosan dapat meningkatkan ekspresi mRNA Col1A1 pada SPPG dibandingkan dengan kontrol dan kelompok perlakuan lainnya (p<0,05). Kitosan dapat menginduksi diferensiasi tahap awal SPPG menjadi osteoblas bergantung pada konsentrasi yang diberikan.

Chitosan has been proven as potential scaffold in bone tissue engineering. This research intends to analyze the other potency of chitosan as inductor in dental pulp stem cell (DPSC) differentiation into osteoblast compared to dexamethasone which is commonly used, by Col1A1 mRNA expression. DPSC were cultured in medium loaded with chitosan, dexamethasone and combination of both for 7 days. Col1A1 mRNA expression was analyzed by comparative CT method real time PCR. Mineralizing medium loaded with 5 ng/ml chitosan could enhance Col1A1 mRNA expression compared to control and another treated group on p<0,05. Chitosan could stimulate early stage of osteoblast differentiation. The effect was dose-dependent."

"Calcium is crucial in governing contractile activities of myofilaments in cardiomyocytes, any defeats in calcium homeostasis of the cells would adversely affect heart pumping action. The characterization of calcium handling properties in human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (iPS-CMCs) is of significant interest and pertinent to the stem cell and cardiac regenerative field because of their potential patient-specific therapeutic use."
