Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Due to gastrointestinal side effects of oral bisphosphonates (BPs), proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are often prescribed. PPIs may enhance the risk of osteonecrosis of the jaw, a rare side effect of BPs. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of the oral BP alendronate (ALN) and the PPI omeprazole (OME) alone and in combination on primary human osteoblasts and gingival fibroblasts in vitro. METHODS: Human gingival fibroblasts and normal human osteoblasts were incubated with either 5 μM of ALN or 1 μM of OME, or ALN + OME for 1, 3, 7 or 14 days. Effect on viability was evaluated by the lactate dehydrogenase activity in the medium and on proliferation by quantifying 3H-thymidin incorporation. Multianalyte profiling of proteins in cell culture media was performed using the Luminex 200TM system to assess the effect on selected bone markers and cytokines. RESULTS: The proliferation of osteoblasts and fibroblasts was reduced upon exposure to ALN + OME. ALN induced an early, temporary rise in markers of inflammation, and OME and ALN + OME promoted a transient decline. An initial increase in IL-13 occurred after exposure to all three options, whereas ALN + OME promoted IL-8 release after 7 days. OME and ALN + OME promoted a transient reduction in vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) from osteoblasts, whereas ALN and ALN + OME induced a late rise in VEGF from fibroblasts. Osteoprotegerin release was enhanced by ALN and suppressed by OME and ALN + OME. CONCLUSIONS: ALN + OME seemed to exaggerate the negative effects of each drug alone on human osteoblasts and gingival fibroblasts. The anti-proliferative effects, modulation of inflammation and impairment of angiogenesis, may induce unfavorable conditions in periodontal tissue facilitating development of osteonecrosis.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
