Influence of Tetracyclines and Pyridonecarboxylic Acids on Cultured Human Gingival Keratinocytes.

Abstract: The cytotoxicity of tetracyclines and pyridonecarboxylic acids was examined with cultured human keratinocytes from gingival tissues by the uptake of neutral red (NR) assay. The NR assay is a quantitative in vitro assay that distinguishes between viable cells and damaged or dead cells. Cultures from different individuals were

“…The difference between the cytocidal effects of minocycline and tetracycline on NDUSD-1 cells may be due to mechanisms similar to those observed in normal gingival epithelial cells. When normal human gingival epithelial cells are exposed to the fluoroquinolones enoxacin or ofloxacin, the cytocidal effect is enoxacin > ofloxacin (27), but the mechanism of the cytocidal effects of the fluoroquinolones is not yet known. Fluoroquinolones are well absorbed after oral administration and are widely distributed in body tissues.…”
