Investigating the Effects of Dehydrated Human Amnion-Chorion Membrane on Periodontal Healing.

ABSTRACT: Each growth factor (GF) has different effects and targets, and plays a critical role in periodontal healing. Dehydrated human amnion-chorion membrane (dHACM) contains various GFs and has been used to enhance wound healing. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of dHACM on periodontal healing, using in vitro and in vivo experimental approaches. Standardized periodontal defects were created in rats. The defects were randomly divided into three groups: Unfilled, filled with hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC), and dHACM+HPC. At 2 and 4 weeks postoperatively, periodontal healing was analyzed by microcomputed tomography (micro-CT), and histological and immunohistochemical analyses. In vitro, periodontal ligament-derived cells (PDLCs) isolated from rat incisors were incubated with dHAC
