Abstract
OBJECTIVE During enamel formation, transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) isoforms exhibit different activities for gene expression, apoptosis, and endocytosis. This study aimed to investigate the differential response of TGF-β isoforms to epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in enamel epithelial cells. DESIGN Using a mouse enamel epithelial cell line (mHAT9d) cultured in the presence of each TGF-β isoform, (1) the morphological changes in EMT were explored, (2) EMT-related genes were analyzed by next-generation sequencing (NGS), (3) TGF-β pathway for EMT was identified by inhibition experiments, and (4) the expression of the TGF-β receptor gene in response to the binding affinity of the TGF-β isoform were analyzed. RESULTS EMT was observed in mHAT9d cultured in the presence of TGF-β1 and β3 but not TGF-β2. The expression of both epithelial and mesenchymal marker genes was observed in mHAT9d exhibiting EMT. NGS analysis suggested extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and Rho pathways as TGF-β signaling pathways associated with EMT. However, EMT in mHAT9d cultured in the presence of TGF-β1 or β3 occurred even in presence of an ERK1/2 inhibitor and was suppressed by Rho-kinase inhibitor. The expression of co-receptors for TGF-β signaling in mHAT9d cells reduced following stimulation with each TGF-β isoform. In contrast, endoglin levels increased following TGF-β1 or β3 stimulation, but no change was noted in response to TGF-β2. CONCLUSIONS We propose that in TGF-β-stimulated enamel epithelial cells, EMT mainly occurred via the Rho signaling pathway, and the differences in response across TGF-β isoforms were due to their endoglin-mediated binding affinity for the TGF-β receptor.

Deletion of epithelial cell-specific p130Cas impairs the maturation stage of amelogenesis. Bone 2022; 154:116210. [PMID: 34592494 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2021.116210] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/24/2021] [Revised: 09/17/2021] [Accepted: 09/18/2021] [Indexed: 11/02/2022]
Abstract
Amelogenesis consists of secretory, transition, maturation, and post-maturation stages, and the morphological changes of ameloblasts at each stage are closely related to their function. p130 Crk-associated substrate (Cas) is a scaffold protein that modulates essential cellular processes, including cell adhesion, cytoskeletal changes, and polarization. The expression of p130Cas was observed from the secretory stage to the maturation stage in ameloblasts. Epithelial cell-specific p130Cas-deficient (p130CasΔepi-) mice exhibited enamel hypomineralization with chalk-like white mandibular incisors in young mice and attrition in aged mouse molars. A micro-computed tomography analysis and Vickers micro-hardness testing showed thinner enamel, lower enamel mineral density and hardness in p130CasΔepi- mice in comparison to p130Casflox/flox mice. Scanning electron microscopy, and an energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analysis indicated the disturbance of the enamel rod structure and lower Ca and P contents in p130CasΔepi- mice, respectively. The disorganized arrangement of ameloblasts, especially in the maturation stage, was observed in p130CasΔepi- mice. Furthermore, expression levels of enamel matrix proteins, such as amelogenin and ameloblastin in the secretory stage, and functional markers, such as alkaline phosphatase and iron accumulation, and Na+/Ca2++K+-exchanger in the maturation stage were reduced in p130CasΔepi- mice. These findings suggest that p130Cas plays important roles in amelogenesis (197 words).
