| Research Abstract |
Glass ionomer cement have a fluoride-releasing.It is said that pulp affinity is high. At first, We examined for the presence of cytotoxic.It was found that COX-2 mRNA expression was induced by cement elution.Tannic acid suppressed the phenomenon. The increased expression of COX-2 mRNA and protein and the production of PGE2 by cement elution. Furthermore, activation of intracellular signal transduction systems present in the upstream was observed. Tannic acid was found to suppress them.
