The Influence of Bioceramic Cements on the Activity of Macrophages of Different Lineages: A Laboratory Study.

Introduction: The repair process of periradicular tissues depends, among other factors, on the properties of endodontic cements. Macrophages are among the main cells involved in this process.

Materials And Methods: Murine peritoneal macrophages obtained from C57BL/6 (MBL6) and BALB/c (MBalb) mice, respectively, were cultured with capillaries containing or not Endosequence BC Sealer (BC), Sealer Plus BC (MK), Bio-C Sealer (Ang), and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA).
