INTRODUCTION: The outcome of root canal obturation might be affected by the chemical components of the chosen filling materials. Niobium phosphate glass-based gutta-percha (GNB) was proposed as a biomaterial-based obturation point. This study aimed to investigate the cytotoxic and cell modulation effects of GNB points on human periodontal ligament fibroblasts (PDLFs) in vitro. METHODS: Human PDLFs were cultured for the assays. Extracts of regular gutta-percha (GP) points and GNB were obtained, serially diluted (1:5, 1:10, and 1:25), and used to stimulate PDLFs. A cell viability assay was performed using alamarBlue reagent (Molecular Probes, Waltham, MA), and reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to assess the gene expression for collagen type I and cementum protein 1. One-way analysis of variance followed by the Tukey post hoc test was performed (P < .05). RESULTS: Regular GP reduced cell viability only in pure extracts, whereas GNB exhibited cytotoxicity to PDLFs in pure extracts as well as 1/5 and 1/10 dilutions. The gene expression of collagen type I was down-regulated only in the GNB group (P < .05). The expression of cementum protein 1 remained unaltered by both tested materials. CONCLUSIONS: The addition of niobium phosphate glass to GP points increased cytotoxicity, affecting PDLF viability and partially disturbing physiological cell function.
