OBJECTIVE To detect the genotoxicity of dental machinable ZrO(2)/LaPO(4) diphase ceramics on human peripheral blood lymphocytes in vitro. METHODS The evaluation of DNA damage on human lymphocytes was performed by comet assay for three groups of ZrO(2)/LaPO(4) diphase ceramics with 30wt% of LaPO(4) (with 3wt% and 5wt% of Y(2)O(3)) and 40wt% of LaPO(4) (with 5wt% of Y(2)O(3)). The results were analyzed with SPSS16.0 software package for one-factor ANOVA and LSD. RESULTS Three experimental groups with different concentration of LaPO(4) of ZrO(2)/LaPO(4) diphase ceramics, the negative control of IPS Empress II ceramics and the blank behaved little migration of the DNA strands respectively after six-day test, and there was no significant difference in all the groups except the positive control (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS The study indicates little effect of DNA damage of ZrO(2)/LaPO(4) diphase ceramics.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008214 Lymphocytes White blood cells formed in the body's lymphoid tissue. The nucleus is round or ovoid with coarse, irregularly clumped chromatin while the cytoplasm is typically pale blue with azurophilic (if any) granules. Most lymphocytes can be classified as either T or B (with subpopulations of each), or NATURAL KILLER CELLS. Lymphoid Cells,Cell, Lymphoid,Cells, Lymphoid,Lymphocyte,Lymphoid Cell
D002516 Ceramics Products made by baking or firing nonmetallic minerals (clay and similar materials). In making dental restorations or parts of restorations the material is fused porcelain.

D003776 Dental Porcelain A type of porcelain used in dental restorations, either jacket crowns or inlays, artificial teeth, or metal-ceramic crowns. It is essentially a mixture of particles of feldspar and quartz, the feldspar melting first and providing a glass matrix for the quartz. Dental porcelain is produced by mixing ceramic powder (a mixture of quartz, kaolin, pigments, opacifiers, a suitable flux, and other substances) with distilled water.

D004249 DNA Damage Injuries to DNA that introduce deviations from its normal, intact structure and which may, if left unrepaired, result in a MUTATION or a block of DNA REPLICATION. These deviations may be caused by physical or chemical agents and occur by natural or unnatural, introduced circumstances. They include the introduction of illegitimate bases during replication or by deamination or other modification of bases; the loss of a base from the DNA backbone leaving an abasic site; single-strand breaks; double strand breaks; and intrastrand (PYRIMIDINE DIMERS) or interstrand crosslinking. Damage can often be repaired (DNA REPAIR). If the damage is extensive, it can induce APOPTOSIS. DNA Injury,DNA Lesion,DNA Lesions,Genotoxic Stress,Stress, Genotoxic,Injury, DNA,DNA Injuries
