Abstract
During the orthodontic tooth movement, cells in periodontal ligament could differentiate into osteoblasts to synthesize alveolar bone as well as affect the proliferation, migration and differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells, which also contribute to bone remodeling. However, the mechanism is still largely elusive. Here, we evaluated the expression of CREB at the tension site of mouse periodontal ligament under orthodontic mechanical strain and in the cyclic tension strain treated human periodontal ligament cells. Then, through gain and loss of function analysis, we revealed that CREB in PDLCs promotes SDF-1 and FGF2 secretion, which enhance the migration and osteoblastic differentiation of BMSCs. We further discovered that CREB transcriptionally activates FGF2 and SDF-1 expressions by binding to the promoter regions.In conclusion, this study confirms that CREB is an upregulated gene in periodontal ligament under orthodontic tension strain stimulation and plays an important role in regulating BMSCs' physiological activity in orthodontic tension strain-induced bone formation.

Abstract
Alveolar bone (AB) remodeling is necessary for the adaption to mechanical stimuli occurring during mastication and orthodontic tooth movement (OTM). Thereby, bone degradation and assembly are strongly regulated processes that can be altered in obese patients. Further, increased fatty acids (FA) serum levels affect bone remodeling cells and we, therefore, investigated whether they also influence the function of periodontal ligament fibroblast (PdLF). PdLF are a major cell type regulating the differentiation and function of osteoblasts and osteoclasts localized in the AB. We stimulated human PdLF (HPdLF) in vitro with palmitic (PA) or oleic acid (OA) and analyzed their metabolic activity, growth, survival and expression of osteogenic markers and calcium deposits. Our results emphasize that PA increased cell death of HPdLF, whereas OA induced their osteoblastic differentiation. Moreover, quantitative expression analysis of OPG and RANKL revealed altered levels in mechanically stimulated PA-treated HPdLF. Furthermore, osteoclasts stimulated with culture medium of mechanical stressed FA-treated HPdLF revealed significant changes in cell differentiation upon FA-treatment. For the first time, our results highlight a potential role of specific FA in the function of HPdLF-modulated AB remodeling and help to elucidate the complex interplay of bone metabolism, mechanical stimulation and obesity-induced alterations.

Abstract
We aimed to evaluate the impact of non-surgical periodontal treatment on the salivary expression of leptin, TNF-α, sclerostin, parathyroid hormone, osteoprotegerin, osteopontin, osteocalcin, IL-6, IL-1β and fibroblast growth factor 23 in patients with chronic periodontitis after 1 year of follow-up. Fifteen patients with chronic periodontitis (56.0 ± SD 9.6 years) and 15 subjects with gingivitis (39.7 ± SD 4.4 years) were included in the study. Clinical periodontal parameters, such as probing pocket depth (PPD), clinical attachment level (CAL), % of plaque and bleeding on probing (BOP) were evaluated, and non-stimulated whole saliva was collected from all patients before periodontal treatment and after 1 year of follow-up. A bead-based multiplex assay measured cytokines. In the chronic periodontitis group, periodontal treatment significantly improved clinical parameters and reduced the salivary levels of IL-1β, leptin and TNF-α (p = 0.002, 0.007 and 0.015, respectively). In the gingivitis group, there were also significant improvements in the mean patient %BOP, % Plaque, CAL and PPD. However, there were no significant changes in the cytokine's salivary levels. In conclusion, chronic periodontitis patients showed a significant reduction in the salivary levels of leptin, TNF-α and IL-1β 1 year after periodontal treatment and a significant improvement in their clinical periodontal parameters suggesting that periodontal treatment alone can downregulate important cytokines associated with bone metabolism.

Abstract
It was the aim of the present investigation to examine whether the stimulating effect of parathyroid hormone (PTH) on human periodontal ligament (hPDL) cell proliferation and differentiation would be enhanced by hPDL/T-cell interaction involving Wnt10b signaling as a mediating pathway. hPDL cells were cultured from healthy premolar tissues of three adolescent orthodontic patients and exposed to PTH(1-34) in monocultures or co-cultures with CD8+ T cells. At harvest, proliferation, alkaline phosphatase-specific activity (ALP), and osteocalcin production were determined by immunofluorescence cytochemistry, real-time PCR, biochemical assay, and ELISA. Wnt10b signaling was analyzed by the use of a specific WNT10b neutralizing antibody. PTH(1-34) stimulation of T cells significantly increased Wnt10b expression and production. Wnt10b exposure of hPDL cells enhanced proliferation and differentiation. PDL cells co-cultured with T cells showed a Wnt10b-dependent regulation of proliferation and differentiation parameters. The addition of a Wnt10b-neutralizing Ab to the co-culture medium resulted in a significant inhibition of the PTH(1-34) effect on proliferation, ALP-specific activity, and osteocalcin protein expression. Our findings provide novel insight into the mechanism of action of PTH on hPDL cells and establish the interplay of T cells and hPDL cells via the Wnt10b pathway as a modulating factor for the anabolic properties of the hormone in periodontal regeneration.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Different concentrations of parathyroid hormone [1-34] (PTH [1-34]) can have totally opposite effects on osteoblasts. Intermittent stimulation with PTH can significantly increase bone mineral density in vitro, mainly through the protein kinase A (PKA) signaling pathway, which phosphorylates runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2). The ClC-3 chloride channel, an important anion channel, can also promote osteogenesis via the Runx2 pathway based on recent studies. The purpose of our study, therefore, is to research whether the ClC-3 chloride channel has an effect on PTH osteodifferentiation in MC3T3-E1 cells. METHODS AND RESULTS A cell counting kit (CCK-8) and real-time PCR were used to investigate the impact of different PTH stimulation modes on MC3T3-E1 cell proliferation and osteogenesis-related gene expression, respectively. We found that the minimum inhibitory concentration of PTH was 10-9 M, and the expression of alkaline phosphatase (Alpl) and Runx2 were at the highest levels when treated with 10-9 M PTH. Next, we used real-time PCR and immunofluorescence technique to detect changes in ClC-3 in MC3T3-E1 cells under PTH treatment. The results showed higher expression of the ClC-3 chloride channel at 10-9 M intermittent PTH administration than in the other groups. Finally, we used the ClC-3 siRNA technique to examine the role of the ClC-3 chloride channel in the effect of PTH on the osteogenesis of osteoblasts, and we found an obvious decrease in the expression of bone sialoprotein (Ibsp), osteocalcin (Bglap), osterix (Sp7), Alpl and Runx2, the formation of mineralization nodules as well. CONCLUSIONS From the above data, we conclude that the expression of ClC-3 chloride channels in osteoblasts helps them respond to PTH stimulation, which mediates osteogenic differentiation.

Abstract
Recent studies have demonstrated the interplay of human periodontal ligament cells (hPDLs) with immune cells, such as macrophages, during tissue repair. High-mobility group box protein-1 (HMGB1) is released into the extracellular milieu by damaged cells and functions as an alarmin to mediate the inflammatory host response. The present study addressed the role of HMGB1 released by hPDLs in the regulation of macrophage differentiation, migration and activity. The aim was to examine the inflammatory potential of HMGB1 itself and in combination with other mediators. The induction of sterile necrosis by thermal insult of hPDLs resulted in HMGB1 translocation from the nucleus to the cytoplasm and on to the extracellular space, as determined by immunocytochemistry/ELISA. Exposure of human macrophages to the conditioned PDL cell medium increased the expression of macrophage differentiation/activation markers CD14, CD23, CD64 and CD163. Chemotactic migration and osteoclastic differentiation of macrophages were also enhanced. Supplementation of the conditioned medium with a saturating concentration of HMGB1-Ab reduced these effects. Challenge with recombinant HMGB1 protein induced less migration and osteoclast differentiation than thermal insult. These data point to the immune modulatory capacity of hPDLs by the release of mediators, including HMGB1, which modify macrophage differentiation, migration and activity during periodontal repair, and indicate an enhanced HMGB1 activity when acting in concert with other mediators.

Regulation of macrophage migration and activity by high-mobility group box 1 protein released from periodontal ligament cells during orthodontically induced periodontal repair: an in vitro and in vivo experimental study.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Recent studies have shown that periodontal ligament (PDL) cells interact with macrophages from the immune system during orthodontically induced repair of periodontal tissue. Hypothesizing that high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) protein is released by mechanically stressed PDL cells into the extracellular space and has a role in mediating the local immune response by acting as an "alarmin", this study was performed to further elucidate these cellular interactions, with a special focus on the impact of proinflammatory mediators secreted by PDL cells on macrophage physiology. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study included an in vivo part in which orthodontic stress was induced in rats and their PDL analyzed for expression of HMGB1 by immunohistochemistry after 5 days of tooth movement. In the in vitro part, human PDL cells were subjected to compressive loading, followed by stimulating human macrophages with conditioned supernatants of these stressed PDL cells and analyzing how mediators that had been released by these cells into the medium would impact macrophage physiology. Assays for macrophage migration and osteoclast differentiation were used in addition to immunohistochemistry, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays, and western blotting. RESULTS Induction of mechanical stress was found to upregulate HMGB1 expression both in vivo and in vitro. At the same time, translocation HMGB1 from nuclei into cytoplasm was observed. Culturing macrophages in conditioned PDL cell medium was associated with enhanced chemotactic migration and osteoclast differentiation. Addition of anti-HMGB1 antibodies to inhibit HMGB1 in the conditioned medium was found to significantly attenuate these effects. A less marked increase of migration and osteoclast differentiation by macrophages was observed after isolated addition of HMGB1, at its observed pathological concentration, to nonconditioned medium. CONCLUSION This study clearly indicates an immunomodulatory potential of human PDL cells via release of mediators, including HMGB1 protein. Our finding that these mediators modify the migration and differentiation of macrophages as a function of periodontal repair during orthodontic treatment broadens the theoretical basis toward developing interventional strategies to avoid orthodontically induced root resorption.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Recent studies indicate that high mobility group box protein 1 (HMGB1) can be released by necrotic and damaged cells and functions as an alarmin that is recognized by the innate immune system. Little is known about the role of HMGB1 within the periodontal ligament (PDL). Therefore, we examined HMGB1 expression by PDL cells in vitro and compared the findings to an in vivo model of orthodontically induced tooth root resorption. In addition, we addressed the question of whether a potentially anabolic intermittent administration of parathyroid hormone (iPTH) would modulate the expression of HMGB1. MATERIALS AND METHODS In confluent PDL cell cultures, HMGB1 messenger RNA (mRNA) expression was quantified by real-time polymerase chain reaction. In a rat model comprising 25 animals, mechanical loading for 5 days was followed by administration of either iPTH (1-34) systemically or sham injections for up to 56 days. HMGB1 expression was determined by means of immunohistochemistry and histomorphometry. RESULTS The in vitro experiments revealed an inhibitory effect of iPTH on basal HMGB1 mRNA expression in confluent PDL cells. In vivo, the mechanical force-induced enhanced HMGB1 protein expression declined time dependently. Intermittent PTH further inhibited HMGB1 expression. The significantly higher basal HMGB1 protein expression in the former compression side was followed by a more pronounced time- and iPTH-dependent decline in the same area. CONCLUSIONS These data indicate a major role for HMGB1 in the regulation of PDL wound healing following mechanical load-induced tissue injury. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The findings point to the potential benefit of iPTH in the attempt to support these immune-associated reparative processes.

Abstract
Residual periodontal ligament (PDL) cells in the damaged tissue are considered a prerequisite for a successful regeneration of the periodontal architecture with all its components, including gingiva, PDL, cementum, and bone. Among other approaches, current concepts in tissue engineering aim at a hormonal support of the regenerative capacity of PDL cells as well as at a supplementation of lost cells for regeneration. Here, we investigated how far an anabolic, intermittent parathyroid hormone (iPTH) administration would enhance the osteoblastic differentiation of PDL cells and the cellular ability to mineralize the extracellular matrix in an in vivo transplantation model. PDL cells were predifferentiated in a standard osteogenic medium for 3 weeks before subcutaneous transplantation into CD-1 nude mice using gelatin sponges as carrier. Daily injections of 40 μg/kg body weight PTH(1-34) or an equivalent dose of vehicle for 4 weeks were followed by explantation of the specimens and an immunohistochemical analysis of the osteoblastic marker proteins alkaline phosphatase (ALP), osteopontin, and osteocalcin. Signs of biomineralization were visualized by means of alizarin red staining. For verification of the systemic effect of iPTH application, blood serum levels of osteocalcin were determined. The osteogenic medium stimulated the expression of ALP and PTH1-receptor mRNA in the cultures. After transplantation, iPTH resulted in an increased cytoplasmic and extracellular immunoreactivity for all markers investigated. In contrast to only sporadic areas of mineralization under control conditions, several foci of mineralization were observed in the iPTH group. Blood serum levels of osteocalcin were elevated significantly with iPTH. These data indicate that the osteoblastic differentiation of human PDL cells and their ability for biomineralization can be positively influenced by iPTH in vivo. These findings hold out a promising prospect for the support of periodontal regeneration.

Abstract
Periodontal ligament (PDL) cells have been associated with the regulation of periodontal repair processes by the differential expression of osteoprotegerin and RANKL in response to intermittent parathyroid hormone (PTH) resulting in a modified activity of bone-resorbing osteoclasts. Here, we examined the intracellular signaling pathways that PDL cells use to mediate the PTH(1-34) effect on osteoprotegerin production and hypothesized that those would be dependent on the cellular maturation stage. Two stages of confluence served as a model for cellular maturation of 5th passage human PDL cells from six donors. Intermittent PTH(1-34) (10(-12) M) and PTH(1-31), the latter lacking the protein kinase C (PKC) activating domain, induced a significant decrease of osteoprotegerin production in confluent cultures, whereas the signal-specific fragments PTH(3-34) and PTH(7-34), which both are unable to activate protein kinase A (PKA), had no effect. The addition of the PKA inhibitor H8 antagonized the PTH(1-34) effect, whereas the PKC inhibitor RO-32-0432 did not. In pre-confluent, less mature cultures, intermittent PTH(1-34) resulted in a significant increase of osteoprotegerin. Similar results were obtained when PTH(1-31) substituted for PTH(1-34) as opposed to a lack of an effect of PTH(3-34) and PTH(7-34). Likewise, in confluent cultures, H8 inhibited the PTH(1-34) effect in pre-confluent cultures contrasted by RO-32-0432 which had no effect. These findings indicate that PTH(1-34) signaling targeting osteoprotegerin production in PDL cells involves a PKA-dependent pathway. The PTH(1-34) effect is dependent on cell status, whereas intracellular signal transduction is not. Clinical trials will have to prove whether those in vitro data are of physiological relevance for interference strategies.
