RESUMO
This study evaluated the influence of fluoride on cell viability and activity of matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) -2 and -9 secreted by preosteoblasts. Preosteoblasts (MC3T3-E1 murine cell line) were cultured in MEM medium supplement with 10% Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) and nucleosides/ribonucleosides without ascorbic acid. Adherent cells were treated with different concentrations of F (as sodium fluoride-NaF) in medium (5 x 10(-6) M, 10(-5) M, 10(-4) M and 10(-3) M) for 24, 48, 72 and 96 h at 37ºC, 5% CO(2). Control cells were cultivated in MEM only. After each period, preosteoblast viability was assessed by MTT assay. MMP-2 and -9 activities were performed by gel zymography. Also, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity was quantified by colorimetry in all experimental groups. It was shown that cultured cells with the highest dose of F (10(-3) M) for 96 h decreased preosteoblast viability while lower doses of F did not alter it, when compared to untreated cells. No differences were observed in ALP activity among groups. Moreover, compared to control, the treatment of cells with F at low dose slightly increased MMP-2 and -9 activities after 24 h. It was concluded that F modulates preosteoblast viability in a dose-dependent manner and also may regulate extracellular matrix remodeling.

Preosteoblasts (MC3T3-E1 murine cell line) were cultured in MEM medium supplement with 10% Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) and nucleosides/ribonucleosides without ascorbic acid. Adherent cells were treated with different concentrations of F (as sodium fluoride-NaF) in medium (5 x 10-6 M, 10-5 M, 10-4 M and 10-3 M) for 24, 48, 72 and 96 h at 37ºC, 5% CO2. Control cells were cultivated in MEM only. After each period, preosteoblast viability was assessed by MTT assay. MMP-2 and -9 activities were performed by gel zymography. Also, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity was quantified by colorimetry in all experimental groups. It was shown that cultured cells with the highest dose of F (10-3 M) for 96 h decreased preosteoblast viability while lower doses of F did not alter it, when compared to untreated cells. No differences were observed in ALP activity among groups. Moreover, compared to control, the treatment of cells with F at low dose slightly increased MMP-2 and -9 activities after 24 h.

Neste estudo, buscou-se avaliar a influência do fluoreto (F) na viabilidade celular e atividade das metaloproteinases de matriz (MMP) -2 e -9 secretado pelos pré-osteoblastos. Pré-osteoblastos (linhagem celular MC3T3-E1 murina) foram cultivados em meio MEM suplementado com 10% de soro fetal bovino (FBS) e nucleosídeos/ribonucleosídeos sem ácido ascórbico. Células aderidas foram tratadas com diferentes concentrações de F (na forma de fluoreto de sódio-NaF) em meio (5 x 10-6 M, 10-5 M, 10-4 M e 10-3 M) por 24, 48, 72 e 96 h a 37ºC, 5 % de CO2. Células do grupo controle foram cultivadas apenas em MEM. Após cada período, a viabilidade dos pré-osteoblastos foi avaliada por MTT. A atividade das MMP-2 e -9 foram analisadas pela zimografia. Além disso, a atividade da fosfatase alcalina (FA) foi quantificada por colorimetria em todos os grupos experimentais. Foi demonstrado que as células cultivadas com a maior dose de F (10-3 M) no período de 96 h tiveram sua viabilidade comprometida, enquanto doses mais baixas de F não a alteraram significativamente, quando comparado com células não tratadas. Não foi observada diferença na atividade da FA entre os grupos. Além disso, o tratamento de células com F em baixas doses, comparado ao grupo controle, promoveu um pequeno aumento da atividade das MMP-2 e -9 após 24 h. Pode-se concluir que o F modula a viabilidade de pré-osteoblastos de uma maneira dose-dependente e também pode regular a remodelação da matriz extracelular.

This review focuses specifically on matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their role in physiological and pathological extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling and degradation processes in the oral environment. A group of enzymes capable of degrading almost all ECM proteins, MMPs contribute to both normal and pathological tissue remodeling. The expression of different MMPs may be upregulated in pathological conditions such as inflammation and tumor invasion. The balance between activated MMPs and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) controls the extent of ECM remodeling. Prior to mineralization, MMPs may participate in the organization of enamel and dentin organic matrix, or they may regulate mineralization by controlling the proteoglycan turnover. There is evidence indicating that MMPs could be involved in the etiology of enamel fluorosis and amelogenesis imperfecta. They seem to play a part in dentinal caries progression, since they have a crucial role in dentin collagen breakdown in caries lesions. MMPs have been identified in pulpal and periapical inflammation and are strongly correlated with periodontal diseases, since they are the major players in collagen breakdown during periodontal tissue destruction. The use of MMP inhibitors could help the prevention and treatment of many MMP-related oral diseases.
