ABSTRACT
Preserving vital pulp in cases of dental pulpitis is desired but remains challenging. Previous research has shown that bioactive glass (BG) possesses notable capabilities for odontogenic differentiation. However, the immunoregulatory potential of BG for inflamed pulp is still controversial, which is essential for preserving vital pulp in the context of pulpitis. This study introduces a novel approach utilizing polydopamine-coated BG (BG-PDA) which demonstrates the ability to alleviate inflammation and promote odontogenesis for vital pulp therapy. In vitro, BG-PDA has the potential to induce M2 polarization of macrophages, resulting in decreased intracellular reactive oxygen species levels, inhibition of pro-inflammatory factor, and enhancement of anti-inflammatory factor expression. Furthermore, BG-PDA can strengthen the mitochondrial function in macrophages and facilitate odontogenic differentiation of human dental pulp cells. In a rat model of pulpitis, BG-PDA exhibits the capacity to promote M2 polarization of macrophages, alleviate inflammation, and facilitate dentin bridge formation. This study highlights the notable immunomodulatory and odontogenesis-inducing properties of BG-PDA for treating dental pulpitis, as evidenced by both in vitro and in vivo experiments. These results imply that BG-PDA could serve as a promising biomaterial for vital pulp therapy.
