Comparaison de la force d'adhésion de deux types de résines de collage appliquées sur des surfaces métalliques traitées de différentes façons : une étude in vitro

L’objectif de cette étude était d’évaluer et de comparer la force d’adhésion de deux résines de collage: le ClearfilTM Esthetic Cement & DC Bond Kit (C) et le RelyXTM Unicem (R), sur trois adhérents différents : une surface d’émail, un alliage de métaux non précieux (Np) et un alliage de métaux semi-précieux (Sp). La surface des échantillons des alliages métalliques a subi différents traitements de surface. Sur l’émail (n=15) ainsi que sur les plaquettes d’alliages Np et Sp (n=15), des cylindres de résine étaient appliqués et polymérisés. Suite au processus de collage, les échantillons ont été incubés à 37°C pendant 24 heures, puis ont subi 500 cycles de thermocyclage. Des tests de cisaillement ont été effectués, suivi par l’analyse de la surface des échantillons au microscope à balayage électronique. Une comparaison de type T-test et des comparaisons multiples post hoc, ont été effectuées pour l’analyse statistique (p 0,05). Sur l’émail, les résultats ont démontré que la résine C présentait une force d'adhésion moyenne statistiquement supérieure (33,97±17,18 MPa) à la résine R (10,48±11,23 MPa) (p 0,05). Le type d’alliage utilisé n’influençait pas la force d’adhésion, et ce, peu importe le type de résine de collage (p>0,05). Pour le groupe Sp, la résine C a démontré une adhésion statistiquement supérieure à la résine R, et ce, pour tous les traitements de surface (p 0,05). En conclusion, la résine C a démontré des résultats d’adhésion significativement supérieurs à la résine R sur l’émail ainsi que sur presque toutes les surfaces traitées des alliages de métaux.

The role of cathepsin C in Papillon-Lefèvre syndrome, prepubertal periodontitis, and aggressive periodontitis

We have previously reported that loss-of-function mutations in the cathepsin C gene (CTSC) result in Papillon Lefevre syndrome, an autosomal recessive condition characterized by palmoplantar keratosis and early,onset, severe periodontitis. Others have also reported CTSC mutations in patients with severe prepubertal periodontitis, but without any skin manifestations. The possible role of CTSC variants in more common types of non-mendelian, early-onset, severe periodontitis ("aggressive periodontitis") has not been investigated. In this study, we have investigated the role of CTSC in all three conditions. We demonstrate that PLS is genetically homogeneous and the mutation spectrum that includes three novel mutations (c.386T>A/p. V129E, c.935A>G/p.Q312R, and c.1235A>G/p.Y412C) in 21 PLS families (including eight from our previous study) provides an insight into structure-function relationships of CTSC. Our data also suggest that a complete loss-of-function appears to be necessary for the manifestation of the phenotype, making it unlikely that weak CTSC mutations are a cause of aggressive periodontitis. This was confirmed by analyses of the CTSC activity in 30 subjects with aggressive periodontitis and age-sex matched controls, which demonstrated that there was no significant difference between these two groups (1,728.7 +/- SD 576.8 mu moles/mg/min vs. 1,678.7 +/- SD 527.2 mu moles/mg/min, respectively, p = 0.73). CTSC mutations were detected in only one of two families with prepubertal periodontitis; these did not form a separate functional class with respect to those observed in classical PLS. The affected individuals in the other prepubertal periodontitis family not only lacked CTSC mutations, but in addition did not share the haplotypes at the CTSC locus. These data suggest that prepubertal periodontitis is a genetically heterogeneous disease that, in some families, just represents a partially penetrant PLS. (C) 2004 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

Co-inheritance of two rare genodermatoses (Papillon Lefevre syndrome and Oculocutaneous Albinism Type 1) in two families

The co-occurrence of two rare recessive genetic conditions in apparently unrelated individuals or families is extremely rare. Two geographically distant and apparently unrelated families were identified in which individuals were simultaneously affected by two rare recessive mendelian syndromes, Papillon-Lefevre syndrome and type 1 oculocutaneous albinism. The families were tested for mutations in the causative genes, cathepsin C (CTSC) and tyrosinase (TYR), respectively, by direct sequencing. To assess the relationship of the two families, both families were tested for polymorphisms at eight microsatellite markers spanning both CTSC and TYR loci. Independent mutations (c.318-1G-->A and c.817G-->C/p.W272C) were identified in CTSC and TYR, respectively, that were shared by the affected individuals in both families. The two affected genes lie close together on chromosome bands 11q14.2-14.3, and studies with linked genetic markers suggested that the families shared a small chromosomal segment carrying both mutations that had been transmitted intact from a remote common ancestor. The co-occurrence of the two rare diseases in multiple families depends on their shared chromosomal location, but not on any shared pathogenic mechanism.

A microbiological study of Papillon-Lefévre syndrome in two patients

AIM: To analyse the microflora of subgingival plaque from patients with Papillon-Lefévre syndrome (PLS), which is a very rare disease characterised by palmar-plantar hyperkeratosis with precocious periodontal destruction.

METHODS: Bacterial isolates were identified using a combination of commercial identification kits, traditional laboratory tests, and gas liquid chromatography. Some isolates were also subjected to partial 16S rDNA sequencing. Plaque samples were also assayed for the presence of Porphyromonas gingivalis, Prevotella intermedia, and Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans in a quantitative enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using monoclonal antibodies.

RESULTS: The culture results showed that most isolates were capnophilic and facultatively anaerobic species-mainly Capnocytophaga spp and Streptococcus spp. The latter included S. constellatus, S. oralis, and S. sanguis. Other facultative bacteria belonged to the genera gemella, kingella, leuconostoc, and stomatococcus. The aerobic bacteria isolated were species of neisseria and bacillus. Anaerobic species included Prevotella intermedia, P. melaninogenica, and P. nigrescens, as well as Peptostreptococcus spp. ELISA detected P gingivalis in one patient in all sites sampled, whereas A. actinomycetemcomitans was detected in only one site from the other patient. Prevotella intermedia was present in low numbers.

CONCLUSIONS: Patients with PLS have a very complex subgingival flora including recognised periodontal pathogens. However, no particular periodontopathogen is invariably associated with PLS.
