Notch signaling regulates mineralization via microRNA modulation in dental pulp stem cells. Oral Dis 2024. [PMID: 38243590 DOI: 10.1111/odi.14868] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2023] [Revised: 12/01/2023] [Accepted: 01/03/2024] [Indexed: 01/21/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study investigated the miRNA expression profile in Notch-activated human dental stem pulp stem cells (DPSCs) and validated the functions of miRNAs in modulating the odonto/osteogenic properties of DPSCs. METHODS DPSCs were treated with indirect immobilized Jagged1. The miRNA expression profile was examined using NanoString analysis. Bioinformatic analysis was performed, and miRNA expression was validated. Odonto/osteogenic differentiation was examined using alkaline phosphatase staining, Alizarin Red S staining, as well as odonto/osteogenic-related gene and protein expression. RESULTS Fourteen miRNAs were differentially expressed in Jagged1-treated DPSCs. Pathway analysis revealed that altered miRNAs were associated with TGF-β, Hippo, ErbB signalling pathways, FoxO and Ras signalling. Target prediction analysis demonstrated that 7604 genes were predicted to be targets for these altered miRNAs. Enrichment analysis revealed relationships to various DNA bindings. Among differentially expressed miRNA, miR-296-3p and miR-450b-5p were upregulated under Jagged1-treated conditions. Overexpression of miR-296-3p and miR-450b-5p enhanced mineralization and upregulation of odonto/osteogenic-related genes, whereas inhibition of these miRNAs revealed opposing results. The miR-296-3p and miR-450b-5p inhibitors attenuated the effects of Jagged1-induced mineralization in DPSCs. CONCLUSIONS Jagged-1 promotes mineralization in DPSCs that are partially regulated by miRNA. The novel understanding of these miRNAs could lead to innovative controlled mechanisms that can be applied to modulate biology-targeted dental materials.

Abstract
Dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) and stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED) are a source of mesenchymal stem cells with the potential to differentiate into several cell types. We initially isolated SHED cells and compared their osteogenic capacity with commercially available DPSCs. Both cells exhibited similar capacities of growth and osteogenic differentiation. A fourfold to sixfold increase in endogenous microRNA26a (miR26a) expression during osteogenic differentiation of preosteoblasts and a similar but attenuated increase (twofold to fourfold) in differentiating SHED was observed, suggesting a role in the process. We, therefore, overexpressed miR26a in SHED to determine if the osteogenic differentiation capacity can be potentiated in vitro. SHED with a threefold increase in miR26a expression showed increased growth rate when compared with parent cells. When exposed to an osteogenic differentiating promoting medium, the miR26a overexpressing cells showed 100-fold increases in the expression of bone marker genes such as type 1 collagen, alkaline phosphatase, and Runx2. The mineralization capacity of these cells was also increased 15-fold. As miR26a targets regulate several bone-specific genes, we evaluated the effect of miR26a overexpression on established targets. We found a moderate decrease in SMAD1 and a profound decrease in PTEN expression. miR26a could potentiate its effect on osteoblast differentiation by its ability to inhibit PTEN and increase the viability of cells and their numbers, a process essential in osteoblast differentiation. Our studies suggest that the upregulation of miR26a can increase bone formation and may serve as an important target to further investigate its potential in tissue engineering applications.

Wnt3a promotes odonto/osteogenic differentiation in vitro and tertiary dentin formation in a rat model. Int Endod J 2023; 56:514-529.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the effect of Wnt3a on odonto/osteogenic differentiation of stem cells isolated from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHEDs) and reparative dentine formation in a rat model. METHODOLOGY Stem cells isolated from human exfoliated deciduous teeth were cultured in media with Wnt3a (50-200 ng/ml). Wnt activation was confirmed by β-catenin immunocytochemistry. Colony-forming unit assay (normalized percentage area), osteogenic gene expression analysis by real-time polymerase chain reaction and mineralization assays measured by the absorption at 540 nm were performed. Tertiary dentine formation in vivo was evaluated using 8-week-old, male Wistar rats. Cavities with pinpoint pulp exposure by a sharp instrument were prepared at the mesial surface of the first molars. Teeth were divided into (n = 6): (1) distilled water (negative control), (2) phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), (3) lithium chloride in DI (20 μM), and (4) Wnt3a in PBS (200 ng/ml). Collagen sponge was used as a scaffold. The cavity was sealed with glass ionomer restoration. Four weeks later, animals were euthanized by sodium pentobarbital (120 mg/kg body weight). Hard tissue formation was evaluated using micro-computerized tomography. Sixty consecutive slides from the initial plane were analysed and calculated as bone/dentine volume per total tissue volume. Paraffin sections (2 μm) were stained with haematoxylin and eosin and Masson's trichrome for morphological evaluation. Data are presented as the mean ± standard error. Mann-Whitney U test was used for two-group comparison. Kruskal Wallis followed by pairwise comparison was employed for three or more group comparisons. Statistical analysis was performed using GraphPad Prism 7. Differences were considered significant at p < .05. RESULTS Wnt3a decreased SHEDs colony formation and increased OSX, BMP2, and DMP1 expression, corresponding to an increase in mineralization. Additionally, a significant increase in dentine/bone volume per total tissue volume was observed in Wnt3a treated defects. Dentine bridge formation at the exposure sites treated with Wnt3a demonstrated, while fibrous tissues were observed in the control. CONCLUSIONS Wnt3a suppressed proliferation, increased osteogenic differentiation of SHEDs and promotes tertiary dentine formation. Wnt3a could be utilized as biological molecule for vital pulp therapy.

Indirect Immobilised Jagged-1 Enhances Matrisome Proteins Associated with Osteogenic Differentiation of Human Dental Pulp Stem Cells: A Proteomic Study. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms232213897. [PMID: 36430375 PMCID: PMC9694941 DOI: 10.3390/ijms232213897] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/15/2022] [Revised: 11/06/2022] [Accepted: 11/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The indirect immobilisation of Jagged-1 (Jagged-1) promoted osteogenic differentiation of human dental pulp cells (hDPs). Furthermore, the analysis of the Reactome pathway of RNA sequencing data indicates the upregulated genes involved with the extracellular matrix (ECM). Hence, our objective was to investigate the effects of Jagged-1 on proteomic profiles of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSC). hDPSCs were cultured on the surface coated with human IgG Fc fragment (hFc) and the surface coated with rhJagged1/Fc recombinant protein-coated surface. Cells were differentiated to the osteogenic lineage using an osteogenic differentiation medium (OM) for 14 days, and cells cultured in a growth medium were used as a control. The protein component of the cultured cells was extracted into the cytosol, membrane, nucleus, and cytoskeletal compartment. Subsequently, the proteomic analysis was performed using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS). Metascape gene list analysis reported that Jagged-1 stimulated the expression of the membrane trafficking protein (DOP1B), which can indirectly improve osteogenic differentiation. hDPSCs cultured on Jagged-1 surface under OM condition expressed COL27A1, MXRA5, COL7A1, and MMP16, which played an important role in osteogenic differentiation. Furthermore, common matrisome proteins of all cellular components were related to osteogenesis/osteogenic differentiation. Additionally, the gene ontology categorised by the biological process of cytosol, membrane, and cytoskeleton compartments was associated with the biomineralisation process. The gene ontology of different culture conditions in each cellular component showed several unique gene ontologies. Remarkably, the Jagged-1_OM culture condition showed the biological process related to odontogenesis in the membrane compartment. In conclusion, the Jagged-1 induces osteogenic differentiation could, mainly through the regulation of protein in the membrane compartment.

Abstract
Osteogenesis is an important developmental event that results in bone formation. Bone forming cells or osteoblasts develop from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) through a highly controlled process regulated by several signaling pathways. The osteogenic lineage commitment of MSCs is controlled by cell-cell interactions, paracrine factors, mechanical signals, hormones, and cytokines present in their niche, which activate a plethora of signaling molecules belonging to bone morphogenetic proteins, Wnt, Hedgehog, and Notch signaling. These signaling pathways individually as well as in coordination with other signaling molecules, regulate the osteogenic lineage commitment of MSCs by activating several osteo-lineage specific transcription factors. Here, we discuss the key signaling pathways that regulate osteogenic differentiation of MSCs and the cross-talk between them during osteogenic differentiation. We also discuss how these signaling pathways can be modified for therapy for bone repair and regeneration.

Abstract
Recreating functional tissues through bioengineering strategies requires steering of complex cell fate decisions. Notch, a juxtacrine signaling pathway, regulates cell fate and controls cellular organization with local precision. The engineering-friendly characteristics of the Notch pathway provide handles for engineering tissue patterning and morphogenesis. We discuss the physiological significance and mechanisms of Notch signaling with an emphasis on its potential use for engineering complex tissues. We highlight the current state of the art of Notch activation and provide a view on the design aspects, opportunities, and challenges in modulating Notch for tissue-engineering strategies. We propose that finely tuned control of Notch contributes to the generation of tissues with accurate form and functionality.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Crosstalk between Notch and other cell signaling molecules has been implicated to regulate the osteogenic differentiation. Understanding the interaction between Notch and IL15 is essential to reveal molecular mechanism. Thus, the objective of the present study was to investigate whether IL15 participates in the Notch signaling-induced mineral deposition in human dental pulp cells (hDPs). METHODS hDPs were explanted from dental pulp tissues. To activate Notch signaling, the cells were seeded on Jagged1-immobilized surfaces. The mRNA expression was evaluated using real-time polymerase chain reaction. hDPs were treated with 5-50 ng/mL IL15. Cell viability and proliferation were determined using an MTT assay. Mineral deposition was examined using alizarin red s and Von Kossa staining. In some experiments, the cells were pretreated with a JAK inhibitor prior to stimulation. RESULTS Jagged1 induced IL15 and IL15RA expression in hDPs. IL15 treatment significantly increased mineral deposition at 14 d and upregulated ALP, OCN, OSX, ANKH, and ENPP1 mRNA expression. IL15-induced mineralization was attenuated by JAK inhibitor pretreatment. Further, JAK inhibitor pretreatment inhibited the effect of Jagged1 on hDP mineral deposition. CONCLUSION IL15 promoted the osteogenic differentiation in hDPs. Moreover, IL15 participated in the Jagged1-induced mineralization in hDPs.

Abstract
Although dental pulp and apical papilla are originated from neural crest cells, these tissues exhibit distinct characteristics. Notch signaling is one of the known signaling pathways regulating stemness and behaviors of stem cells. The aim of this study was to examine Notch signaling related gene expression profile comparing between coronal pulp tissues and apical pulp complex. Results demonstrated that coronal pulp tissue had higher expression levels of various genes in Notch pathway. However, NOTCH2, MAML2, DTX4, and NEDD4 mRNA levels were significantly lower in coronal pulp tissue than those of apical pulp complex. Furthermore, dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) and stem cells isolated from apical papilla (SCAPs) were isolated and characterized. These two cell types exhibited similar mesenchymal stem cell surface markers. DPSCs expressed higher mRNA levels of NOTCH3, NOTCH4, DLL1, and HES1. In addition, SCAPs demonstrated higher colony formation and cell proliferation than DPSCs. In summary, cells and tissues from dental pulp and apical papilla exhibited the distinct gene expression profile of Notch related genes. This could be of one the signaling participated in control of DPSCs and SCAPs cells behaviors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Mechanical stimulation regulates many cell responses. The present study describes the effects of different in vitro mechanical stimulation approaches on stem cell behavior. DESIGN The narrative review approach was performed. The articles published in English language that addressed the effects of mechanical force on stem cells were searched on Pubmed and Scopus database. The effects of extrinsic mechanical force on stem cell response was reviewed and discussed. RESULTS Cells sense mechanical stimuli by the function of mechanoreceptors and further transduce force stimulation into intracellular signaling. Cell responses to mechanical stimuli depend on several factors including type, magnitude, and duration. Further, similar mechanical stimuli exhibit distinct cell responses based on numerous factors including cell type and differentiation stage. Various mechanical applications modulate stemness maintenance and cell differentiation toward specific lineages. CONCLUSIONS Mechanical force application modulates stemness maintenance and differentiation. Modification of force regimens could be utilized to precisely control appropriate stem cell behavior toward specific applications.

Abstract
The design of cell-instructive biomaterials for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine is at a crossroads. Although the conventional tissue engineering approach is top-down (cells seeded to macroporous scaffolds and mature to form tissues), bottom-up tissue engineering strategies are becoming appealing. With such developments, we can study cell signaling events, thus enabling functional tissue assembly in physiologic and diseased models. Among many important signaling pathways, the Notch signaling pathway is the most diverse in its influence during tissue morphogenesis and repair following injury. Although Notch signaling is extensively studied in developmental biology and cancer biology, our knowledge of designing biomaterial-based Notch signaling platforms and incorporating Notch signaling components into engineered tissue systems is limited. By incorporating Notch signaling to tissue engineering scaffolds, we can direct cell-specific responses and improve engineered tissue maturation. This review will discuss recent progress in the development of Notch signaling biomaterials as a promising target to control cellular fate decisions, including the influences of ligand identity, biophysical material cues, ligand presentation strategies, and mechanotransduction. Notch signaling is consequently of interest to direct, control, and reprogram cellular behavior on a biomaterial surface. We anticipate that discussions in this article will allow for enhanced knowledge and insight into designing Notch targeted biomaterials for various tissue engineering and cell fate determinations. Impact statement Notch signaling is recognized as an important pathway in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine; however, there is no systematic review on this topic. The comprehensive review and perspectives presented here provide an in-depth discussion on ligand presentation strategies both in 2D and in 3D cell culture environments involving biomaterials/scaffolds. In addition, this review article provides insight into the challenges in designing cell surrogate biomaterials capable of providing Notch signals. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first review relevant to the fields of tissue engineering.

Abstract
Background Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) regulates cell proliferation, migration, and differentiation in various cell types. The aim of the present study was to determine the bFGF target genes in stem cells isolated from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHEDs). Methods Cells were isolated from pulp tissue obtained from exfoliated deciduous teeth. Mesenchymal stem cell surface markers and the differentiation potential toward adipogenic and neurogenic lineages were characterized. The bFGF-treated SHED transcriptome was examined using a high throughput RNA sequencing technique. The mRNA and protein expression of selected genes were evaluated using real-time polymerase chain reaction and immunofluorescence staining, respectively. Cell cycle analysis was performed by flow cytometry. The colony forming unit number was also examined. Results The isolated cells expressed CD44, CD90, CD105, but not CD45. The upregulation of adipogenic and neurogenic marker genes was observed after culturing cells in the appropriate induction medium. Transcriptome analysis of the bFGF treated cells revealed that the upregulated genes were in the cell cycle related pathways, while the downregulated genes were in the extracellular matrix related pathways. Correspondingly, bFGF induced MKI67 mRNA expression and Ki67 protein expression. Furthermore, bFGF treatment significantly decreased the G0/G1, but increased the G2/M, population in SHEDs. Colony formation was markedly increased in the bFGF treated group and was attenuated by pretreating the cells with FGFR or PI3K inhibitors. Conclusion bFGF controls cell cycle progression in SHEDs. Thus, it can be used to amplify cell number to obtain the amount of cells required for regenerative treatments.

Abstract
Stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED) have now been considered one of the most promising sources of stem cells for tissue engineering and stem cell therapies due to their stemness and potential to differentiate into other cell lines. The high proliferation rate, the differentiation capacity, the easy access and less ethical concerns make SHED a brilliant solution for many diseases. The purpose of this review is to describe current knowledge of SHED's capability of differentiation, applications and immune status and to draw attention to further research on the mechanism and the dependability of stem cell therapy with SHED.

Abstract
Surface immobilization of Jagged1 promotes odonto/osteogenic differentiation in human dental pulp cells. On the contrary, soluble Jagged1 fails to activate target gene expression of Notch signaling which is important for differentiation of human dental pulp cells. Hence, Jagged1 delivery system is indeed required for transportation of immobilized Jagged1 to promote odontogenic differentiation of human dental pulp cells in vivo. The present study described the preparation and characterization of Jagged1-bound fibrinogen-based microspheres. Water-in-oil emulsion technique was employed to prepare fibrinogen microspheres and thrombin cross-linked fibrinogen microspheres. The average size of fibrinogen microspheres and thrombin cross-linked fibrinogen microspheres was 213.9 ± 35.9 and 199.9 ± 41.9 µm, respectively. These microspheres did not alter the human dental pulp cells’ cell viability. Human dental pulp cells were able to attach and spread on these microspheres. Jagged1 was conjugated on microspheres using 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylamino) propyl carbodiimide/N-hydroxysuccinimide. Binding capacity of Jagged1 on both fibrinogen microspheres and thrombin cross-linked fibrinogen microspheres ranged from 25.8 ± 6.0 to 35.6 ± 9.1%. There was no significant difference in the size of microspheres between before and after Jagged1 conjugation process. In conclusion, fibrinogen microspheres and thrombin cross-linked fibrinogen microspheres could be utilized as the alternative biomaterials for Jagged1 delivery for future biomedical application.

Abstract
Objective To define the effect of Jagged1 on the gene expression in osteoblast differentiation, regulation of osteoblast differentiation and regulation of bone mineralization ontology. Methods Human dental pulp and periodontal ligament cells were isolated using explant method. Cells were seeded on Jagged1 immobilized surface. The mRNA expression was determined using real-time polymerase chain reaction. Mineral deposition was evaluated using alizarin red s staining. Publicly available database of gene expression profiles (GSE126249 and GSE94989) were downloaded and performed bioinformatic analysis to identify gene expression in osteoblast differentiation and regulation of osteoblast differentiation and mineralization ontology. Results Both human dental pulp cells and human periodontal ligament cells expressed higher Notch target gene (HES1 and HEY1) when cells were seeded on Jagged1 immobilization surface. Jagged1 significantly increased an in vitro mineral deposition in both cell types after maintaining in osteogenic induction medium for 14 days. Correspondingly, the significant increase of ALPL mRNA expression was observed, while there was no significant change in ANKH and ENPP1 mRNA expression in Jagged1 treated condition. From bioinformatic analysis of genes in osteoblast differentiation ontology, IARS, COL1A1, ALPL, COL6A1, CREB3L1, and SNAI2 mRNA levels were upregulated while GJA1 mRNA levels were decreased upon Jagged1 exposure. In the regulation of bone mineralization ontology, evidences supported that TFGB1 and TGFB3 were upregulated in Jagged1 treated condition. Conclusion Jagged1 promote the mRNA expression of several genes in osteoblast differentiation related gene ontology. This could be further employed to identify the mechanism by which Jagged1 promoted osteogenic differentiation in human dental pulp and periodontal ligament cells.

Abstract
Pulpitis in primary teeth, a condition caused by presence of bacteria, is highly prevalent worldwide. The use of biocompatibility materials with anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, and regenerative properties is critical for prognosis of this endodontic disease. This study aimed to identify expression of human β defensin 4 (HBD4) in stem cells derived from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED) and characterize the effects of HBD4 on SHED. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) was used to detect HBD4 expression in SHED and the effect of HBD4 on inflammatory factors in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated SHED. Affinity measurement was made by the Fortebio Octet System to explore the potential interaction between LPS and HBD4. Western blot analysis was used to explore the effect of HBD4 on mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. Colony-forming unit methods and scanning electron microscopy were applied to study antimicrobial effect of HBD4 on Fusobacterium nucleatum and Porphyromonas gingivalis. Alkaline phosphatase staining, alizarin red staining, qPCR and western blot were taken to detect effects of HBD4 on osteoblast/odontoblast differentiation of SHED. RT2 Profiler PCR Array was used to explore the potential signaling pathways involved in the osteogenic/odontogenic differentiation. HBD4 was highly expressed in SHED stimulated by TNF-α and IL-1α. HBD4 could bind to LPS directly and down-regulate IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α in LPS-stimulated SHED, thus the activation of MAPK pathway decreased. HBD4 was sensitive to P. gingivalis and enhanced osteoblast/odontoblast differentiation potential of SHED by modulating Notch pathway. HBD4 was highly expressed in SHED stimulated by proinflammatory cytokines, and possessed anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial activity. HBD4 promoted osteogenic/odontogenic differentiation of SHED. HBD4 may thus represent a suitable agent for vital pulp therapy in future clinic application.

Abstract
Skeletal development throughout the embryonic and postnatal phases is a dynamic process, based on bone remodeling and the balance between the activities of osteoclasts and osteoblasts modulating skeletal homeostasis. The Notch signaling pathway is a regulator of several developmental processes, and plays a crucial role in the development of the human skeleton by regulating the proliferation and differentiation of skeletal cells. The Delta Like-1 (DLL1) gene plays an important role in Notch signaling. We propose that an identified alteration in DLL1 protein may affect the downstream signaling. In this article, we present for the first time two siblings with a mutation in the DLL1 gene, presenting with congenital vertebral malformation. Using variable in silico prediction tools, it was predicted that the variant was responsible for the development of disease. Quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the Notch signaling pathway, using samples obtained from patients, showed a significant alteration in the expression of various related genes. Specifically, the expression of neurogenic locus notch homolog protein 1, SNW domain-containing protein 1, disintegrin, and metalloproteinase domain-containing proteins 10 and 17, was upregulated. In contrast, the expression of HEY1, HEY2, adenosine deaminase (ADA), and mastermind-like-1 (MAML-1) was downregulated. Furthermore, in a phosphokinase array, four kinases were significantly changed in patients, namely, p27, JANK1/2/3, mitogen- and stress-activated protein kinases 1 and 2, and focal adhesion kinase. Our results suggest an implication of a DLL1 defect related to the Notch signaling pathway, at least in part, in the morphologic abnormality observed in these patients. A limitation of our study was the low number of patients and samples. Further studies in this area are warranted to decipher the link between a DLL1 defect and skeletal abnormality.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Jagged1 regulates several biological functions in human periodontal ligament cells (hPDLs). The present study aimed to evaluate mRNA expression profiling of Jagged1-treated hPDLs using microarray technique. METHODS Notch ligands, Jagged1, were indirectly immobilized on tissue culture surface. Subsequently, hPDLs were seeded on Jagged1 immobilized surface and maintained in growth medium for 48 hr. Total RNA was collected and processed. Gene expression profiling was examined using microarray technique. Real-time polymerase chain reaction and immunofluorescence staining were employed to determine mRNA and protein expression levels, respectively. Cell proliferation and colony-forming unit assay were performed. Cell cycle was evaluated using propidium iodide staining and flow cytometry analysis. RESULTS The isolated cells demonstrated fibroblast-like morphology and exhibited the co-expression of CD44, CD90, and CD105 surface markers. After stimulated with Jagged1, the total of 411 genes was differentially expressed, consisting both coding and non-coding genes. For coding genes, 165 and 160 coding genes were upregulated and downregulated, respectively. Pathway analysis revealed that the upregulated genes were mainly involved in cellular interactions, signal transduction, and collagen formation and degradation while the downregulated genes were in the events and phases in cell cycle. Jagged1 significantly decreased cell proliferation, reduced colony-forming unit ability, and induced G0/G1 cell cycle arrest in hPDLs. CONCLUSION Jagged1 regulates various biological pathways in hPDLs. This gene expression profiling could help to understand the mechanisms potentially involved in the Notch signaling regulation in periodontal homeostasis.

Abstract
Notch signaling regulates diverse biological processes in dental pulp tissue. The present study investigated the response of human dental pulp cells (hDPs) to the indirect immobilized Notch ligand Jagged1 in vitro. The indirect immobilized Jagged1 effectively activated Notch signaling in hDPs as confirmed by the upregulation of HES1 and HEY1 expression. Differential gene expression profiling using an RNA sequencing technique revealed that the indirect immobilized Jagged1 upregulated genes were mainly involved in extracellular matrix organization, disease, and signal transduction. Downregulated genes predominantly participated in the cell cycle, DNA replication, and DNA repair. Indirect immobilized Jagged1 significantly reduced cell proliferation, colony forming unit ability, and the number of cells in S phase. Jagged1 treated hDPs exhibited significantly higher ALP enzymatic activity, osteogenic marker gene expression, and mineralization compared with control. Pretreatment with a γ-secretase inhibitor attenuated the Jagged1-induced ALP activity and mineral deposition. NOTCH2 shRNA reduced the Jagged1-induced osteogenic marker gene expression, ALP enzymatic activity, and mineral deposition. In conclusion, indirect immobilized Jagged1 suppresses cell cycle progression and induces the odonto/osteogenic differentiation of hDPs via the canonical Notch signaling pathway.

Abstract
Lithium Chloride (LiCl) has been used as a canonical Wnt pathway activator due to its ability to inhibit a glycogen synthase kinase-3. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of LiCl on cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation in stem cells isolated from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHEDs). SHEDs were isolated and cultured in media supplemented with LiCl at 5, 10, or 20mM. The results demonstrated that LiCl significantly decreased SHEDs colony forming unit ability in a dose dependent manner. LiCl significantly enhanced the percentage of cells in the sub G0 phase, accompanied by a reduction of the percentage of cells in the G1 phase at day 3 and 7 after treatment. Further, LiCl markedly decreased OSX and DMP1 mRNA expression after treating SHEDs in an osteogenic induction medium for 7 days. In addition, no significant difference in alkaline phosphatase enzymatic activity or mineral deposition was found. Together, these results imply that LiCl influences SHEDs behavior.
