AIMS: Authors studied potential side effects of fetal calf serum (FCS) in cultivation media on human dental pulp stem cells (DPSC) during long-term cultivation. METHODS: Two lines of DPSC obtained healthy donors (male 22 years, female 23 years) were used. Both lines were cultivated under standard cultivation conditions in four different media containing 10% or 2% FCS and substituted with growth factors. During long-term cultivation proliferation ability, karyotype and phenotype of DPSC were measured. RESULTS: Both lines of DPSC cultivated in a media containing 2% FCS and ITS supplement showed the highest number of population doublings. On the other hand the proliferation rate of DPSC cultivated in a media with 2% FCS without ITS supplement was slowest. Proliferation rate of DPSC cultivated in 10% FCS media with or without FGF-2 was comparable. DPSC cultivated in a media with 10% FCS showed a significantly higher amount of chromosomal aberrations. These chromosomal aberrations do not seem to be clonal but surprisingly we found large amounts of tetraploid cells in the 9th passage in both media containing 10% FCS. CONCLUSIONS: Our study proved that cultivation of DPSC in media containing higher concentration of FCS has critical side effects on cell chromosomal stability. and J. Suchánek, TS. Kleplová, M.

Cíl. Korelace ultrazvukového vyšetření polohy disku temporomandibulárního kloubu s vyšetřením na magnetické rezonanci. Metoda. Celkem bylo vyšetřeno 95 pacientů, 112 čelistních kloubů, soubor zahrnoval 10 mužů, 85 žen, věkové rozhraní 14-74 let, průměrný věk 37 let. Vyšetření na ultrazvuku probíhalo na přístroji Philips iu22 lineární 17 MHz sondou ve dvou fázích - klidové a dynamické - při otevírání úst. Na magnetické rezonanci byli pacienti vyšetření na přístroji Philips Achieva 1,5 T s povrchovou cívkou a mikroskopickou cívkou, každé vyšetření zahrnovalo sekvenci s postupným otevíráním úst. Výsledky. Souhlas mezi ultrazvukovým vyšetřením a magnetickou rezonancí při ventrální poloze byl 96%, z toho byla diagnostikována repozice disku v 94%, u pacientů bez repozice byla senzitivita nižší - 65%., Aim. The aim of this study was the correlation of an ultrasound examination of the disk of the temporomandibular joint with the magnetic rezonance examination. Method. In total has been examined 95 patients, 112 mandibular joints, file include 10 men, 85 women, age interface 14-74 years old, the average age of 37 years. The patients were examined using Philips iu22 with linear 17 MHz probe with dynamic phase - with opening the mouth. On the MRI, the patients were examined using Philips Achieva 1.5 T with the surface coil and microscopic coil, each examination included a sequence with the gradual opening of the mouth. Results. Consent between the ultrasound examination and magnetic resonance imaging in the anterior position was 96%, disc reposition in 94% of patients, without reposition in 65% cases., Andrea Šprláková-Puková, Alena Štouračová, Miloš Keřkovský, Ondřej Liberda, Vojtěch Peřina, Karel Bartušek, Zdenek Smékal, Ondřej Šmirg, and Literatura
