Abidin IZZ, Manogaran T, Wahab RMA, Yazid F, Ariffin SHZ. A Comparative Analysis of Ascorbic Acid-induced Cytotoxicity and Differentiation between SHED and DPSC. Curr Stem Cell Res Ther 2022; 17:576-588. [DOI: 10.2174/1574888x17666220124141310] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2021] [Revised: 10/13/2021] [Accepted: 11/26/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
Aim:
The aim of this study was to compare dental pulp tissue in human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHEDs) and dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) in response to ascorbic acid as the sole osteoblast inducer.
Background:
A cocktail of ascorbic acid, β-glycerophosphate, and dexamethasone has been widely used to induce osteoblast differentiation. However, under certain conditions, β-glycerophosphate and dexamethasone can cause a decrease in cell viability in stem cells.
Objectives:
This study aims to determine the cytotoxic effect and potential of ascorbic acid as the sole inducer of osteoblast differentiation.
Methods:
Cytotoxicity analyses in the presence of 10-500 µg/mL ascorbic acid were performed in both cell types using a 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. The concentrations below the IC50 (i.e., 10-150 µg/mL) were used to determine osteoblast differentiation potential of ascorbic acid using the alkaline phosphatase (ALP) assay, von Kossa staining, and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction.
Results:
SHEDs and DPSCs proliferated for 21 days, expressed a Mesenchymal Stem Cell (MSC) marker (CD73+), and did not express Hematopoietic Stem Cell (HSC) markers (CD34- and SLAMF1-). SHEDs had a higher range of IC50 values (215-240 µg/mL ascorbic acid), while the IC50 values for DPSCs were 177-211 µg/mL after 24-72 hours. SHEDs treated with 10-100 µg/mL ascorbic acid alone exhibited higher ALP-specific activity and a higher percentage of mineralisation than DPSCs. Both cell types expressed osteoblast markers on day 21, i.e., RUNX2+ and BSP+, in the presence of ascorbic acid.
Conclusions:
SHEDs survive at higher concentrations of ascorbic acid as compared to DPSC. The cytotoxic effect was only exhibited at ≥250 µg/mL ascorbic acid. In addition, SHED exhibited better ALP and mineralization activities, but lower osteoblast marker expression than DPSC in response to ascorbic acid as the sole inducer.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate in vitro the impact of fibroblast growth factor 1 (FGF1) in comparison to ascorbic acid (AscA) on human periodontal ligament fibroblast (HPdLF) growth, their osteogenic differentiation, and modulation of their inflammatory reaction to mechanical stress. METHODS The influence of different concentrations of FGF1 (12.5-200 ng/mL) on growth and proliferation of HPdLF cells was analyzed over 20 days by counting cell numbers and the percentage of Ki67-positive cells. Quantitative expression analysis of genes encoding the osteogenic markers alkaline phosphatase (ALPL), Runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2), osteocalcin (OCN), and osteopontin (OSP), as well as the fibroblast markers vimentin (VIM) and fibroblast-specific protein 1 (FSP1), was performed after 2 and 20 days of cultivation. Metabolic activity was determined by MTT assay. For comparison with AscA, 50 ng/mL FGF1 was used for stimulation for 2 and 20 days. Cell number, percentage of Ki67-positive cells, and expression of osteoblast- and fibroblast-specific genes were examined. Alkaline phosphatase activity was visualized by NBT/BCIP and calcium deposits were stained with alizarin red. Cytokine (IL‑6, IL‑8, COX2/PGE2) expression and secretion were analyzed by qPCR and ELISA in 6 h mechanically compressed HPdLF cultured for 2 days with FGF1 or ascorbic acid. RESULTS Higher concentrations of FGF1 promoted cell proliferation upon short-term stimulation, whereas prolonged treatment induced the expression of osteogenic markers even with low concentrations. AscA promotes cell growth more markedly than FGF1 in short-term cultures, whereas FGF1 induced osteogenic cell fate more strongly in long-term culture. Both factors induced an increased inflammatory response of HPdLF to mechanical compression. CONCLUSION Our data suggest that FGF1 promotes an osteogenic phenotype of HPdLF and limits inflammatory response to mechanical forces compared to AscA.

Magnetic PLGA microspheres loaded with SPIONs promoted the reconstruction of bone defects through regulating the bone mesenchymal stem cells under an external magnetic field. MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING. C, MATERIALS FOR BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS 2021; 122:111877. [PMID: 33641893 DOI: 10.1016/j.msec.2021.111877] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2020] [Revised: 12/17/2020] [Accepted: 01/07/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) have been presented to regulate the migration and osteogenic differentiation of bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) under magnetic field (MF). However, the toxicity and short residence for the massively exposed SPIONs at bone defects compromises their practical application. Herein, SPIONs were encapsulated into PLGA microspheres to overcome these shortcomings. Three types of PLGA microspheres (PFe-I, PFe-II and PFe-III) were prepared by adjusting the feeding amount of SPIONs, in which the practical SPIONs loading amounts was 1.83%, 1.38% and 1.16%, respectively. The average diameter of the fabricated microspheres ranged from 160 μm to 200 μm, having the porous and rough surfaces displayed by SEM. Moreover, they displayed the magnetic property with a saturation magnetization of 0.16 emu/g. In vitro cell studies showed that most of BMSCs were adhered on the surface of PFe-II microspheres after 2 days of co-culture. Moreover, the osteoblasts differentiation of BMSCs was significantly promoted by PFe-II microspheres after 2 weeks of co-culture, as shown by detecting osteogenesis-related proteins expressions of ALP, COLI, OPN and OCN. Afterward, PFe-II microspheres were surgically implanted into the defect zone of rat femoral bone, followed by exposure to an external MF, to evaluate their bone repairing effect in vivo. At 6th week after treatment with PFe-II + MF, the bone mineral density (BMD, 263.97 ± 25.99 mg/cm3), trabecular thickness (TB.TH, 0.58 ± 0.08 mm), and bone tissue volume/total tissue volume (BV/TV, 78.28 ± 5.01%) at the defect zone were markedly higher than that of the PFe-II microspheres alone (BMD, 194.34 ± 26.71 mg/cm3; TB.TH, 0.41 ± 0.07 mm; BV/TV, 50.49 ± 6.41%). Moreover, the higher expressions of ALP, COLI, OPN and OCN in PFe-II + MF group were displayed in the repairing bone. Collectively, magnetic PLGA microspheres together with MF may be a promising strategy for repairing bone defects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) is a childhood-onset endemic osteoarthropathy in China. Nutrients including trace elements may play active roles in the development of KBD. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to estimate the nutrient intakes of children in endemic areas and to identify the imbalanced nutrients associated differentially expressed genes in the juvenile patients with KBD. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, a consecutive 3 day 24 h semi-quantitative dietary retrospect questionnaire was conducted to estimate the daily nutrient intakes of children using CDGSS 3.0 software. Gene profile analysis was employed to identify differentially expressed genes in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of children with KBD. GOC, CTD, KEGG, and REACTOME databases were used to establish the relationship between nutrients and nutrients-associated differentially expressed genes and pathways. Statistical analyses were accomplished by SPSS 18.0 software. RESULTS Daily Se intakes without supplementation of children were significantly lower in Se-supplemented (Se + ) KBD areas (29.3 ∼ 29.6 mg/d) and non-endemic area (27.8 ± 7.9 mg/d) compared to non-Se-supplemented (Se-) KBD area (32.9 ± 7.9 mg/d, c2 = 20.24, P < .01). Children in Se+ KBD areas were suffering more serious insufficient intake of multiple nutrients, including vitamins-B2/-C/-E, Ca, Fe, Zn and I. Gene profile analysis combined with bioinformatics technique identified 34 nutrients associated differentially expressed genes and 10 significant pathways which are related to the pathological changes in juvenile KBD. CONCLUSIONS Imbalance of dietary nutrients and nutrients-associated differentially expressed genes and pathways may play important roles in the development of juvenile KBD.

Abstract
Marfan syndrome (MFS) is caused by abnormal systemic connective tissue. The main clinical manifestations include long limbs, long slender fingers, lens subluxation, abnormal cardiac valves, and aortic aneurysm. We report the case of an 11-year-old patient with MFS who underwent orthodontic treatment and was followed up until the age of 25 years. We found no significant differences in tooth movement between the patient with MFS and healthy subjects. However, because patients with MFS show characteristic facial growth and an increased risk of developing systemic comorbidities, their dental status requires careful observation over time.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although expression of peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerase NIMA-interacting 1 (PIN1) was reported in bone tissue, the precise role of PIN1 in periodontal tissue and cells remain unclear. MATERIAL & METHODS To elucidate the roles of PIN1 in periodontal tissue, its expression in periodontal tissue and cells, and effects on in vitro 4 osteoblast differentiation and the underlying signaling mechanisms were evaluated. RESULTS PIN1 was expressed in mouse periodontal tissues including periodontal ligament cells (PDLCs), cementoblasts and osteoblasts at the developing root formation stage (postnatal, PN14) and functional stage of tooth (PN28). Treatment of PIN1 inhibitor juglone, and gene silencing by RNA interference promoted osteoblast differentiation in PDLCs and cementoblasts, whereas the overexpression of PIN1 inhibited. Moreover, osteogenic medium-induced activation of AMPK, mTOR, Akt, ERK, p38 and NF-jB pathways were enhanced by PIN1 siRNA, but attenuated by PIN1 overexpression. Runx2 expressions were induced by PIN1 siRNA, but downregulated by PIN1 overexpression. CONCLUSION In summary, this study is the first to demonstrate that PIN1 is expressed in developing periodontal tissue, and in vitro PDLCs and cementoblasts. PIN1 inhibition stimulates osteoblast differentiation, and thus may play an important role in periodontal regeneration.

Eurycoma longifolia as a potential alternative to testosterone for the treatment of osteoporosis: Exploring time-mannered proliferative, differentiative and morphogenic modulation in osteoblasts. JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2017; 195:143-158. [PMID: 27818256 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2016.10.085] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/29/2016] [Revised: 10/23/2016] [Accepted: 10/31/2016] [Indexed: 06/06/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Eurycoma longifolia (EL) has been well-studied traditionally as a chief ingredient of many polyherbal formulations for the management of male osteoporosis. It has also been well-recognised to protect against bone calcium loss in orchidectomised rats. AIM OF THE STUDY To evaluate the effects of EL on the time-mannered sequential proliferative, differentiative, and morphogenic modulation in osteoblasts compared with testosterone. MATERIALS AND METHODS Cell proliferation was analysed using MTS assay and phase contrast microscopy. Osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells was assessed through a series of characteristic assays which include crystal violet staining, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and Van Gieson staining. Taken together, the bone mineralization of extra cellular matrix (ECM) was estimated using alizarin red s (ARS) staining, von kossa staining, scanning electron microscopic (SEM) and energy dispersive x-ray (EDX) analysis. RESULTS The cell proliferation data clearly revealed the efficiency of EL particularly at a dose of 25µg/mL, in improving the growth of MC3T3-E1 cells compared with the untreated cells. Data also showed the prominence of EL in significantly promoting ALP activity throughout the entire duration of treatment compared with the testosterone-treated cells. The osteogenic differentiation potential of EL was further explored by analysing mineralization data which revealed that the calcified nodule formation (calcium deposition) and phosphate deposition was more pronounced in cells treated with 25µg/mL concentration of EL at various time points compared with the untreated and testosterone treated cells. The scanning electron microscopic (SEM) analysis also revealed highest globular masses of mineral deposits (identified as white colour crystals) in the ECM of cultured cells treated with 25µg/mL concentration of EL. CONCLUSION Compared to testosterone, greater potential of EL in promoting the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells provides an in vitro basis for the prevention of male osteoporosis. Thus, we anticipate that EL can be considered as an alternative approach to testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) for the treatment of male osteoporosis.

Abstract
Periodontitis is an increasing area of interest due to its global prevalence. This inflammatory condition results due to the loss of the critical balance between the virulence factors produced by microorganisms and the inflammatory host response. A number of efforts have been made in the past to address this condition and regain periodontal health. Targeting the root cause by nonsurgical debridement has been considered the gold standard. However, research has shown the possible effects of nutrient deficiency and an imbalanced diet on the periodontium. Therefore, an effort toward the maintenance of optimal conditions as well as improvement of the oral health necessities the introduction of adjunctive nutritional therapy, which can benefit the patients. Antioxidants in the diet have some remarkable benefits and valuable properties that play an irreplaceable role in the maintenance of periodontal health. These have emerged as excellent adjuncts that can enhance the outcomes of conventional periodontal therapy. The aim of this review article is to highlight some of these dietary antioxidants that can make a notable difference by striking a balance between health and disease.

Protease inhibitors enhance extracellular collagen fibril deposition in human mesenchymal stem cells. Stem Cell Res Ther 2015; 6:197.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Collagen is a widely used naturally occurring biomaterial for scaffolding, whereas mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) represent a promising cell source in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. It is generally known that cells are able to remodel their environment by simultaneous degradation of the scaffolds and deposition of newly synthesized extracellular matrix. Nevertheless, the interactions between MSCs and collagen biomaterials are poorly known, and the strategies enhancing the extracellular matrix deposition are yet to be defined. In this study, we aim to investigate the fate of collagen when it is in contact with MSCs and hypothesize that protease inhibition will enhance their extracellular deposition of collagen fibrils. METHODS Specifically, human MSCs (hMSCs) were exposed to fluorescence-labeled collagen with and without intracellular or extracellular protease inhibitors (or both) before tracing the collagen at both intracellular and extracellular spaces. RESULTS Collagen were internalized by hMSCs and degraded intracellularly in lysosomes. In the presence of protease inhibitors, both intracellular collagen fibril growth and extracellular deposition of collagen fibrils were enhanced. Moreover, protease inhibitors work synergistically with ascorbic acid, a well-known matrix deposition-enhancing reagent, in further enhancing collagen fibril deposition at the extracellular space. CONCLUSION These findings provide a better understanding of the interactions between hMSCs and collagen biomaterials and suggest a method to manipulate matrix remodeling and deposition of hMSCs, contributing to better scaffolding for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Recently it was reported that deferoxamine (DFO), an iron chelator, stimulates bone formation from MG63 and mesenchymal stem cells, but inhibits differentiation in rat calvarial cells; however, the effect of DFO on osteoblastic differentiation in human periodontal ligament cells (hPDLCs) has not been reported. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects and the possible underlying mechanism of DFO on osteoblastic differentiation of hPDLCs. MATERIAL AND METHODS The effect of DFO on osteoblast differentiation was determined by the staining intensity of calcium deposits with Alizarin red and by RT-PCR analysis of the expression of osteoblastic markers. Signal transduction pathways were analyzed by western blotting. RESULTS DFO increased osteogenic differentiation in a concentration-dependent manner by expression of the mRNA for differentiation markers and calcium nodule formation. Exposure of hPDLCs to DFO resulted in increases in the production of reactive oxygen species and in the levels of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor (Nrf2) protein in nuclear extractions, as well as a dose-dependent increase in the expression of Nrf2 target genes, including glutathione (GSH), glutathione S-transferase, γ-glutamylcysteine lygase, glutathione reductase and glutathione peroxidase. Pretreatment with Nrf2 small interfering RNA, GSH depletion by buthionine sulfoximine and diethyl maleate, and with antioxidants by N-acetylcysteine and vitamin E, blocked DFO-stimulated osteoblastic differentiation. Furthermore, pretreatment with GSH depletion and antioxidants blocked DFO-induced p38 MAPK, ERK, JNK and nuclear factor-kappaB pathways. CONCLUSION These data indicate, for the first time, that nontoxic DFO promotes osteoblastic differentiation of hPDLCs via modulation of the Nrf2-mediated antioxidant pathway.

Abstract
The differentiation of periodontal ligament (PDL) progenitor cells is important for maintaining the homeostasis of PDL tissue and alveolar bone. Vitamin C (VC), a water-soluble nutrient that cannot be biosynthesized by humans, is vital for mesenchymal stem cells differentiation and plays an important role in bone remodeling. Therefore, the objective of this study was to determine the function and mechanism of VC in PDL progenitor cells osteogenic differentiation at the molecular level. We demonstrated that VC could induce the osteogenic differentiation and maturation of PDL progenitor cell without other osteogenic agents. During the process, VC preferentially activated ERK1/2 but did not affect JNK or p38. Co-treatment with ERK inhibitor effectively decreased the Vitamin C-induced expression of Runx2. ERK inhibitor also abrogated Vitamin C-induced the minimized nodules formation. PELP1, a nuclear receptor co-regulator, was up-regulated under VC treatment. PELP1 knockdown inhibited ERK phosphorylation. The overexpression of PELP1 had a positive relationship with Runx2 expression. Taken together, we could make a conclude that VC induces the osteogenic differentiation of PDL progenitor cells via PELP1-ERK axis. Our finding implies that VC may have a potential in the regeneration medicine and application to periodontitis treatment.

Abstract
Previously we showed that MMP-1 (collagenase-1) and MMP-13 (collagenase-3) differentially regulate the expression of osteoblastic markers in a heterogenous population of primary human periodontal ligament cells. The mechanisms for these differential responses are not known, but may result from divergence in regulation of early osteogenic transcription factors. The purpose of this study was to elucidate where in the hierarchy of osteoblast-specific transcription factors and markers the differences in MMP-1- and -13-mediated regulation of osteoblastic differentiation arise. We found that the overexpression of MMP-1 resulted in significant decreases in BMP-2, Dlx5, AP, OP and BSP and increases in TGF-β1 and MSX2. In contrast, MMP-13 overexpression resulted in significant decreases in Runx2, OP and BSP, and increases in TGF-β1, MSX2 and OC. The knockdown of MMP-1 caused significant increases in all osteoblastic markers. MMP-13 knockdown produced significant increases only in TGF-β1, MSX2 and Osx, but decreases in Runx2 and OC. Suppression of both MMPs together resulted in significant increases of all osteoblastic markers except Runx2. MMP-1 had a more robust and generalized effect in regulating osteoblast transcription factors and markers than MMP-13. Finally, of the markers and transcription factors assayed, Runx2 is the most early stage transcription factor induced by suppression of MMP-1, while Osx and MSX2 are the most early stage transcription factors regulated by MMP-13. These data show that MMP-1's and -13's differential regulation of osteoblastic markers in MG63 cells likely results from their modulation of divergent signaling pathways involved in osteoblastic differentiation.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the critical time periods of melatonin treatment required to induce human mesenchymal stem cells (hAMSCs) into osteoblasts and to determine which osteogenic genes are involved in the process. The study design consisted of adding melatonin for different times (2, 5, 10, 14 or 21 days) toward the end of a 21-day treatment containing osteogenic (OS+) medium or at the beginning of the 21-day treatment and then withdrawn. The results show that a 21-day continuous melatonin treatment was required to induce both alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and calcium deposition and these effects were mediated through MT₂Rs. Functional analysis revealed that peak ALP levels induced by melatonin were accompanied by attenuation of melatonin-mediated inhibition of forskolin-induced cAMP accumulation. Immunoprecipitation and western blot analyses, respectively, showed that MT₂R/β-arrestin scaffolds complexed to Gi, MEK1/2 and ERK1/2 formed in these differentiated hAMSCs (i.e., when ALP levels were highest) where ERK1/2 resided primarily in the cytosol. It is hypothesized that these complexes form to modulate the subcellular localization of ERK1/2 to affect osteogenic gene expression. Using real-time RT-PCR, chronic melatonin exposure induced the expression of osteogenic genes RUNX-2, osteocalcin and BMP-2, through MT₂Rs. No melatonin-mediated changes in the mRNA expression of ALP, BMP-6 or in the oxidative enzymes MtTFA, PGC-1α, Polγ, NRF-1, PDH, PDK and LDH occurred. These data show that a continuous 21-day melatonin exposure is required to induce osteoblast differentiation from hAMSCs through the formation of MT₂R/Gi/β-arrestin/MEK/ERK1/2 complexes to induce osteogenesis.

Abstract
The selective estrogen receptor modulator raloxifene is therapeutically beneficial for postmenopausal connective tissue degradation, such as osteoporosis, vascular sclerosis, and dermal degradation; however, the effects of raloxifene on postmenopausal tendon metabolism have not been clarified. In this study, we investigated the effects of raloxifene analogue (LY117018) on cell proliferation and collagen metabolism using cultured rat Achilles tendon fibroblasts. 17beta-Estradiol (E(2); 10(-11)-10(-9) M) and LY117018 (10(-9)-10(-7) M) had no significant effects on tendon fibroblast proliferation, based on a BrdU (5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine) incorporation assay (24 hr) and a WST-8 colorimetric assay (2 or 6 days). Neither E(2) nor LY117018 significantly altered the expression of type I collagen, which is a main component of the tendon extracellular matrix (ECM), whereas both E(2) and LY117018 significantly increased the expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-13, which is responsible for tendon collagen degradation in rat. Also, both E(2) and LY117018 increased the expression of type III collagen and elastin, which are minor components of tendon ECM, but are considered to govern the elastic properties of tendons. These changes in collagen and MMP induced by either E(2) or LY117018 were attenuated by the estrogen receptor alpha blocker ICI 182,780. The results of this study suggest that postmenopausal estrogen deficiency might downregulate tendon collagen turnover and decrease tendon elasticity. Further, raloxifene treatment might restore these changes to premenopausal levels.

Abstract
Fibronectin (FN) fragments found in chronic inflammatory diseases, including periodontal disease and arthritis, may contribute to tissue destruction in part via induction of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). We previously showed that the 120-kDa FN fragment containing the central cell binding domain (120FN) dose dependently induces MMP-1 (collagenase-1) in human periodontal ligament (PDL) cells, whereas intact FN did not elicit this response. Recently, we found that an increase in MMP-1 expression is accompanied by a decreased osteoblastic phenotype in PDL cells. We hypothesized that 120FN inhibits osteoblastic differentiation of PDL cells by inducing MMP-1. Effects of increasing concentrations of 120FN on MMP-1 expression and on osteoblastic markers were assessed in cultured PDL cells using Western blotting, qRT-PCR, and collagen degradation and alkaline phosphatase (AP) activity assays. The 120FN dose dependently increased MMP-1 expression and activity, concomitant with a decrease in AP activity. The increase in collagenase activity was largely attributed to increased MMP-1 expression. Concurrent with the decrease in AP activity, the 120FN reduced baseline and dexamethasone-induced gene expression of specific osteoblastic markers, Runx2 and osteonectin, and diminished mineralized nodule formation. Finally, siRNA inhibition of 120FN-induced MMP-1 reduced collagenase expression and rescued the AP phenotype to baseline levels. These findings suggest that disease-associated 120FN, in addition to having direct effects on tissue destruction by upregulating MMPs, could contribute to disease progression by impeding osteoblastic differentiation of osteogenic PDL cells and, consequently, diminish bone regeneration.

Abstract
Previous studies have demonstrated an inverse relationship between constitutive or stimulated collagenase expression and osteoblastic phenotype of osteogenic cells. However, the direct effects of cell-secreted collagenases on osteoblastic differentiation, and the precise contributions of the key collagenolytic MMPs, MMP-1 and -13 to the modulation of specific osteoblastic markers have not been elucidated. Early passage osteogenic human periodontal ligament (PDL) cells were exposed to exogenous collagenase-1 in the presence and absence of dexamethasone. Alternatively, endogenous collagenases were modulated by transfecting the cells with cDNA or siRNA to MMP-1 and/or -13. Specific osteoblastic markers and collagenase expression and activity were then assayed. Increasing concentrations of exogenous collagenase or endogenous MMP-1 and -13 produced a dose-dependent decrease in AP activity. Conversely, a dose-dependent increase in AP activity was observed with increasing concentrations of MMP-1 or MMP-13 siRNA. Overexpression of MMP-1 resulted in a significant decrease in Runx2, osteonectin (ON), osteopontin (OP), bone sialoprotein (BSP) and osteocalcin (OC), but an increase in osterix (Osx) mRNA levels. In contrast, knockdown of MMP-1 caused a significant increase in Runx2, ON, OP, BSP and OC levels and a decrease in Osx levels. MMP-13 overexpression resulted in diminished levels of Osx, OP and BSP, while its knockdown caused a significant increase in Osx and OP levels and a significant decrease in ON levels. The accretion of matrix molecules including collagen I(alpha1) in cell-matrix extracts paralleled the changes in their respective mRNAs. Simultaneous suppression of both MMP-1 and -13 resulted in significant increases in all osteoblastic markers assayed. MMP-1 and -13 differentially regulate osteoblastic markers and their combined suppression is important for the elaboration of an osteoblastic phenotype in PDL cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Bone morphogenic proteins are known, in animal models, to promote many developmental processes, including osteogenesis. Clinical trials are currently underway to evaluate the potential of bone morphogenic proteins to promote bone and periodontal regeneration in humans. The aim of this study was to establish an optimal cell culture condition for using to study the biological effects of recombinant human bone morphogenic protein-2 on periodontal ligament cells. MATERIAL AND METHODS The roles of serum concentration, types of culture medium (alpha-modified essential medium or Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium), the presence of osteoinductive medium (including dexamethasone, ascorbic acid and beta-glycerophosphate), and timing of addition of the osteoinductive medium and recombinant human bone morphogenic protein-2, on the expression of alkaline phosphatase were investigated in cultured periodontal ligament cells. Cytochemical stainings and biological assay of alkaline phosphatase were also demonstrated. RESULTS Our results suggested that an increased concentration of serum might mask the effect of recombinant human bone morphogenic protein-2 on the expression of alkaline phosphatase in periodontal ligament cells. alpha-Modified essential medium was found to induce a stronger cytochemical staining of the alkaline phosphatase than Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium under similar culture conditions. Pre-incubation of cells with osteoinductive medium before the addition of various concentrations of recombinant human bone morphogenic protein-2 enhanced greater alkaline phosphatase expression than the simultaneous presence of both osteoinductive medium and recombinant human bone morphogenic protein-2. CONCLUSION The findings of this study suggest that the effect of recombinant human bone morphogenic protein-2 on periodontal ligament cells could be efficiently investigated after the proper selection of culture variables and temporal sequence of adding bioactive factors. The optimal culture condition identified in this study might be useful in further studies to elucidate the regulatory mechanism of periodontal ligament cells in periodontal regeneration after stimulation with recombinant human bone morphogenic protein-2.

[PMID: 17664058 DOI: 10.1016/j.nut.2007.06.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/24/2006] [Revised: 06/25/2007] [Accepted: 06/25/2007] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of L-ascorbic acid (AsA) on osteoblast differentiation, we examined the effects of AsA on in vitro osteoblastic differentiation markers such as collagen synthesis, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, and receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappaB ligand (RANKL) and osteoprotegerin (OPG) expression. The role of Ikaros and casein kinase 2 (CK2) in regulating osteoblast differentiation was also determined. METHODS This study examined the expression of RANKL and OPG, collagen synthesis, and ALP activity in AsA-treated osteoblast-like cells (MG63) using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and biochemical assays. In addition, Ikaros activity and CK2 expression were assessed by electrophoretic mobility shift assays and western blot assays, respectively. RESULTS The results showed that AsA treatment slightly downregulated OPG mRNA expression, whereas the mRNA expression of RANKL and collagen was unaffected. AsA significantly increased ALP activity after 4 d, and this activation was inhibited by the CK2 inhibitors, 2-dimethylamino-4,5,6,7-tetrabromo-1H-benzimidazole and 5,6-dichloro-1-beta-D-ribofuranosylbenzimidazimidazole. Small interfering RNA-mediated depletion of CK2-alpha also decreased ALP activity in AsA-stimulated cells. Moreover, western blot analysis showed that AsA induced the activation of CK2. AsA dose-dependently decreased the DNA binding affinity of the transcription factor Ikaros, which is a bifunctional differentiation factor. Moreover, cells treated with AsA and CK2 inhibitor exhibited increased Ikaros activity compared with those treated with AsA alone. CONCLUSION These results suggest that AsA stimulates osteoblastic differentiation by enhancing ALP activity and suppressing Ikaros activity. Moreover, this process might be related to CK2 regulation.

In vitro models of periodontal cells: a comparative study of long-term gingival, periodontal ligament and alveolar bone cell cultures in the presence of beta-glycerophosphate and dexamethasone. JOURNAL OF MATERIALS SCIENCE. MATERIALS IN MEDICINE 2007; 18:1079-88.

Abstract
Human gingival (HG), periodontal ligament (HPL) and alveolar bone (HAB) cells (first subculture) were cultured (10(4) cells/cm2) for 35 days in alpha-Minimal Essential Medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum in the presence of (i) ascorbic acid (AA, 50 microg/mL), (ii) AA + beta-glycerophosphate (betaGP, 10 mM) and (iii) AA + betaGP + dexamethasone (Dex, 10 nM). Cultures were assessed for cell attachment and spreading, cell proliferation, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and acid phosphatase (ACP) activities and matrix mineralization. HG cell cultures presented a high proliferation rate, a low ability to synthesize ALP and ACP and the formation of a non-mineralized extracellular matrix, regardless the experimental situation. HPL cell cultures were very sensitive to the culture conditions and showed a high proliferation rate, synthesis of moderate levels of ALP and ACP and a modest matrix mineralization in the presence of AA + betaGP + Dex. HAB cell cultures presented a growth rate lower than that of HG and HPL cells, a high ALP activity and comparatively low levels of ACP, and the ready formation of a heavy mineralized matrix in the presence of betaGP. In the three periodontal cell cultures, Dex enhanced cell proliferation and expression of osteoblastic markers. Results showed that betaGP and Dex allowed the modulation of the cell proliferation/differentiation behavior within the proposed physiological and regenerative capabilities of these periodontal cells.

Abstract
Human osteoblasts were cultured on hydroxyapatite (HA), 0.8 wt % silicon substituted hydroxyapatite (Si-HA) and 1.5 wt % Si-HA discs. The influence of these substrates on cell behaviour in vitro was assessed by measuring total protein in the cell lysate and the production of several phenotypic markers: collagen type I (COL I), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), osteocalcin (OC), and the formation of bone mineral. After 7 days, beta-glycerophosphate and physiological levels of hydrocortisone were added to the culture medium to stimulate cell differentiation and mineral production. There was a significantly higher production of ALP on 1.5 wt % Si-HA at day 7 following which, the addition of hydrocortisone promoted the differentiation of cells on the other two substrates. Hydrocortisone addition also decreased the production of OC. During the period, when hydrocortisone was present, no significant difference in behavior was seen between cells on Si-HA and HA; however, following removal of hydrocortisone, cells responded to 0.8 wt % Si-HA with a significant increase in protein production. Using fluorescence microscopy, nodular structures labeled with tetracycline were observed on the surface of all substrates after 21 days. These structures were deposited on areas of high cell density but were not related to the presence or level of silicon in the substrate. These results indicate that human osteoblasts are affected by the presence of silicon in the HA substrate and that the timing of these effects may be dependent upon the level of silicon substitution.

Bone 2007; 40:93-104.

Abstract
Although dexamethasone (Dex) substantially enhances the osteoblastic phenotype in osteogenic cells, including human periodontal ligament (PDL) cells, the basis for this response remains poorly understood. Since the accretion of a collagenous matrix is important for an osteoblastic response and dexamethasone is known to decrease collagenase expression, we examined whether osteoblastic differentiation mediated by Dex is linked to a decrease in collagenase expression in PDL cells. Early passage human PDL cells were exposed to Dex, or ascorbic acid (AA) or beta-glycerophosphate (betaGP) alone, or in various combinations in serum-free media for 3 or 5 days. Cells exposed to Dex alone or any combinations of treatments that included Dex demonstrated increased core binding factor alpha 1 (Cbfa1), alkaline phosphatase (AP), osteonectin (ON), osteopontin (OP), bone sialoprotein (BSP) and collagen I (alpha1) expression when compared to control cells or those exposed to AA or betaGP. The induction of these osteoblastic markers was accompanied by a decrease in collagenase-1 expression. Collagenase activity showed a statistically significant strong negative relationship to Cbfa1 (Pearson's r=-0.97), AP (r=-0.87), OP (r=-0.95) and BSP (r=-0.82) in 5-day cultures, and moderately strong relationship to ON (r=-0.74) from 3 days culture. Dex also produced a dose-dependent increase in AP that was paralleled by a decrease in collagenase activity (r=-0.98). Addition of collagenase inhibitors increased AP expression while concomitantly suppressing collagenase activity. Conversely, addition of exogenous collagenase decreased the AP phenotype of the cells, which was more marked in the absence then in the presence of Dex. The findings indicate that Dex enhances specific markers of osteoblastic differentiation in PDL cells by decreasing collagenase expression, and suggest that endogenous collagenase may regulate osteoblastic differentiation of these cells.

Abstract
Semi-synthetic tetracyclines (TCs) have been reported to reduce pathological bone resorption through several mechanisms, although their effect over bone physiological metabolism is not yet fully understood. The present study aims at evaluate the behaviour of osteoblastic-induced human bone marrow cells regarding proliferation and functional activity, in the presence of representative therapeutic concentrations of doxycycline and minocycline. First passage human osteoblastic bone marrow cells were cultured for 35 days in conditions known to favor osteoblastic differentiation. Doxycycline (1-25 micro g/ml) or minocycline (1-50 micro g/ml) were added continuously, with the culture medium, twice a week with every medium change. Cultures were characterised at several time points for cell proliferation and function. Present data showed that 1 micro g/ml of both tetracyclines, level representative of that attained in plasma and crevicular fluid with the standard therapeutic dosage, increased significantly the proliferation of human bone marrow osteoblastic cells without altering their specific phenotype and functional activity. Long-term exposure to these TCs induced a significant increase in the number of active osteoblastic cells that yielded a proportional amount of a normal mineralised matrix, suggesting a potential application in therapeutic approaches aiming to increase bone formation. The presence of higher levels of these agents led to a dose-dependent deleterious effect over cell culture, delaying cell proliferation and differentiation.

Abstract
Bone tissue engineering consists of culturing osteoblastic cells onto synthetic three-dimensional (3D) porous scaffolds. The organization of bone cells into 3D scaffolds is crucial for ex vivo tissue formation. Diffusional rates of nutrients could be greatly improved by perfusing media through the 3D microporous scaffolds. However, bone cells cultured in vitro are responsive to a variety of different mechanical signals including fluid flow and shear stresses. In this work, we attempt to study osteoblastic cells behaviour cultured within microdevices allowing continuous and homogenous feeding of cells. We have fabricated polydimethylsiloxane PDMS microdevices with a 3D microstructured channel network. Mouse calvarial osteoblastic cells MC3T3-E1 were seeded at 2x10(6)cells/ml and cultured into the microdevices under flow rates of 0, 5, 35 microl/min. Cells attached and proliferated well in the designed microdevices. Cell viability was found around 85% up to 1 to 2 weeks for shear stress value under 5 mPa. The alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity was enhanced 3- and 7.5-fold inside the microdevices under static and dynamic flow of 5 microl/min as compared to flat static cultures in PDMS coated Petri dishes. Therefore, osteoblastic cells could be successfully cultured inside the microdevices under dynamic conditions and their ALP activity was enhanced. These results are promising for bone cell growth and differentiation as well as future tissue regeneration using larger 3D microfluidic microdevices.

Abstract
Bone physiology can be examined on multiple length scales. Results of cell-level studies, typically carried out in vitro, are often extrapolated to attempt to understand tissue and organ physiology. Results of organ- or organism-level studies are often analyzed to deduce the state(s) of the cells within the larger system(s). Although phenomena on all of these scales—cell, tissue, organ, system, organism—are interlinked and contribute to the overall health and function of bone tissue, it is difficult to relate research among these scales. For example, groups of cells in an exogenous, in vitro environment that is well defined by the researcher would not be expected to function similarly to those in a dynamic, endogenous environment, dictated by systemic as well as organismal physiology. This review of the literature on bone cell culture describes potential causes and components of cell “culture shock,” i.e., behavioral variations associated with the transition from in vivo to in vitro environment, focusing on investigations of mechanotransduction and experimental approaches to mimic aspects of bone tissue on a macroscopic scale. The state of the art is reviewed, and new paradigms are suggested to begin bridging the gap between two-dimensional cell cultures in petri dishes and the three-dimensional environment of living bone tissue.

Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinases are involved in the regulation of bone remodeling. The hypothesis that matrix metalloproteinase inhibitors may be useful for experimentally limiting orthodontic tooth movement, a process involving perturbations of normal bone remodeling, was tested. General matrix metalloproteinase inhibitors limited the resorption of bone slices by mouse marrow cultures stimulated by calcitriol, parathyroid hormone, and basic-fibroblast growth factor. Pre-coating dentin slices with short arginine-glycine aspartic acid (RGD) peptides, but not arginine-glycine-glutamic acid (RGE) controls, restored bone resorption in the presence of matrix metalloproteinase inhibitors. Orthodontic tooth movement was inhibited by local delivery of Ilomastat, a general matrix metalloproteinase inhibitor, with the use of ethylene-vinyl-acetate (ELVAX) 40, a non-biodegradable, non-inflammatory sustained-release polymer. This study shows that orthodontic tooth movement can be inhibited with the use of matrix metalloproteinase inhibitors, and suggests a mechanistic link between matrix metalloproteinase activity and the production of RGD peptides.
