Melatonin (MLT) is a hormone responsible for regulating several physiological processes. It has been shown that MLT can be an important mediator in bone formation and stimulation, promoting osteoblast differentiation. In clinical practice, in tissue regeneration procedures, it is necessary to use membranes or barriers, associated with biomaterials, or not. The aim of this in vitro study was to assess the effect of melatonin on the activity of osteoblastic cells, associated, or not, with a resorbable collagen membrane (Bio-Gideä). For this, mice-derived pre-osteoblastic cells MC3T3 obtained from the ATCC (American Type Culture Collection) were used. Cultured cells were subject to the following treatments: MLT with a concentration of 1mM, a Bio-Gideä membrane and a membrane associated with MLT (Bio-Gideä + MLT). Proliferation and cell viability assays and protein lysate (ELISA test) quantification for the BMP-2 protein were carried out, in periods of 72 hours, 7 days and 10 days. After analyzing the data (one-way ANOVA, alpha=5%) it was observed that when MLT was used in isolation, there was an increase in cell proliferation and viability in osteoblastic cells (p<0.05). But, when MLT was associated with resorbable membranes, there was an inverse behavior, both in terms of proliferation and viability (p<0.05). In the case of the ELISA test, no secretion of BMP-2 was detected in any of the analyzed groups. It is concluded that MLT has a stimulatory effect on osteoblasts, but, when associated with Bio-Gideä resorbable membranes, it does not show any viable action in osteoblastic cell stimulation.
