    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: The integrity and stability of collagen are crucial for the dentin structure and bonding strength at dentin-resin interface. Natural plant-derived polypehenols have been used as collagen crosslinkers. OBJECTIVE: The aims of the study were to develop novel chitosan oleuropein nanoparticles (CS-OL-NPs), and to investigate the CS-OL-NPs treated dentin's the resistance to enzymatic degradation and mechanic property. METHODS: CS-OL-NPs were developed using the ionotropic gelation method. Release and biocompatibility of the CS-OL-NPs were tested. Twenty demineralized dentin collage specimens were randomized into four interventions groups: A, Deionized Water (DW); B, 5% glutaraldehyde solution (GA); C, 1 mg/ml chitosan (CS); and D, 100 mg/L CS-OL-NPs. After 1-min interventions, dentin matrix were evaluated by the micro-Raman spectroscopy for the modulus of elasticity test. Collagen degradation was assessed using hydroxyproline (HYP) assay. RESULTS: CS-OL-NPs were spherical core-shape with a size of 161.29 ± 8.19 nm and Zeta potential of 19.53 ± 0.26 mV. After a burst release of oleuropein in the initial 6 h, there was a long-lasting steady slow release. CS-OL-NPs showed a good biocompatibility for the hPDLSCs. The modulus of elasticity in the crosslinked groups were significantly higher than that in the control group (P< 0.05 for all). The specimens treated with CS-OL-NP showed a greater modulus of elasticity than those treated with GA and CS (P< 0.05 for both). The release of HYP in the crosslinked group was significantly lower than that in the non-crosslinked groups (P< 0.05 for all). CONCLUSION: CS-OL-NPs enhanced the dentin mechanical property and resistance to biodegradation, with biocompatibility and potential for clinical application.
