Eur J Cell Biol 2024; 103:151440. [PMID: 38954934 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejcb.2024.151440] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2024] [Revised: 06/02/2024] [Accepted: 06/27/2024] [Indexed: 07/04/2024] Open
Abstract
One of the deficits of knowledge on bone remodelling, is to what extent cells that are driven towards osteogenic differentiation can contribute to osteoclast formation. The periodontal ligament fibroblast (PdLFs) is an ideal model to study this, since they play a role in osteogenesis, and can also orchestrate osteoclastogenesis.when co-cultured with a source of osteoclast-precursor such as peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). Here, the osteogenic differentiation of PdLFs and the effects of this process on the formation of osteoclasts were investigated. PdLFs were obtained from extracted teeth and exposed to osteogenic medium for 0, 7, 14, or 21 out of 21 days. After this 21-day culturing period, the cells were co-cultured with peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) for an additional 21 days to study osteoclast formation. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, calcium concentration, and gene expression of osteogenic markers were assessed at day 21 to evaluate the different stages of osteogenic differentiation. Alizarin red staining and scanning electron microscopy were used to visualise mineralisation. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAcP) activity, TRAcP staining, multinuclearity, the expression of osteoclastogenesis-related genes, and TNF-α and IL-1β protein levels were assessed to evaluate osteoclastogenesis. The osteogenesis assays revealed that PdLFs became more differentiated as they were exposed to osteogenic medium for a longer period of time. Mineralisation by these osteogenic cells increased with the progression of differentiation. Culturing PdLFs in osteogenic medium before co-culturing them with PMBCs led to a significant decrease in osteoclast formation. qPCR revealed significantly lower DCSTAMP expression in cultures that had been supplemented with osteogenic medium. Protein levels of osteoclastogenesis stimulator TNF-α were also lower in these cultures. The present study shows that the osteogenic differentiation of PdLFs reduces the osteoclastogenic potential of these cells. Immature cells of the osteoblastic lineage may facilitate osteoclastogenesis, whereas mature mineralising cells may suppress the formation of osteoclasts. Therefore, mature and immature osteogenic cells may have different roles in maintaining bone homeostasis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2) plays an important role in bone metabolism; however, the relationship between Runx2 and periodontitis remains unclear. We investigated Runx2 expression in the gingiva of patients to explore its role in periodontitis. METHODS Gingival samples of patients were collected, including healthy samples (control group) and periodontitis samples (P group). Periodontitis samples were divided into three groups based on the periodontitis stage. Samples with stage I and grade B periodontitis were in the P1 group, stage II and grade B in the P2 group, and stage III or IV and grade B in the P3 group. Immunohistochemistry and western blotting were performed to detect Runx2 levels. The probing (PD) and clinical attachment loss (CAL) were recorded. RESULTS Runx2 expression levels in the P and P3 groups were higher than those in the control group. In addition, Runx2 expression was positively correlated with CAL and PD (r1 = 0.435, r2 = 0.396). CONCLUSION The high expression level of Runx2 in the gingiva of patients with periodontitis may be correlated with the pathogenesis of periodontitis.

Park JS, Kim DY, Hong HS. FGF2/HGF priming facilitates adipose-derived stem cell-mediated bone formation in osteoporotic defects. Heliyon 2024; 10:e24554. [PMID: 38304814 PMCID: PMC10831751 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e24554] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2023] [Revised: 12/14/2023] [Accepted: 01/10/2024] [Indexed: 02/03/2024] Open
Abstract
Aims The activity of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) is susceptible to the physiological conditions of the donor. Therefore, employing ADSCs from donors of advanced age or with diseases for cell therapy necessitates a strategy to enhance therapeutic efficacy before transplantation. This study aims to investigate the impact of supplementing Fibroblast Growth Factor 2 (FGF2) and Hepatocyte Growth Factor (HGF) on ADSC-mediated osteogenesis under osteoporotic conditions and to explore the underlying mechanisms of action. Main methods Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) obtained from ovariectomized (OVX) rats were cultured ex vivo. These cells were cultured in an osteogenic medium supplemented with FGF2 and HGF and subsequently autologously transplanted into osteoporotic femur defects using Hydroxyapatite-Tricalcium Phosphate. The assessment of bone formation was conducted four weeks post-transplantation. Key findings Osteoporosis detrimentally affects the viability and osteogenic differentiation potential of ADSCs, often accompanied by a deficiency in FGF2 and HGF signaling. However, priming with FGF2 and HGF facilitated the formation of immature osteoblasts from OVX ADSCs in vitro, promoting the expression of osteoblastogenic proteins, including Runx-2, osterix, and ALP, during the early phase of osteogenesis. Furthermore, FGF2/HGF priming augmented the levels of VEGF and SDF-1α in the microenvironment of OVX ADSCs under osteogenic induction. Importantly, transplantation of OVX ADSCs primed with FGF2/HGF for 6 days significantly enhanced bone formation compared to non-primed cells. The success of bone regeneration was confirmed by the expression of type-1 collagen and osteocalcin in the bone tissue of the deficient area. Significance Our findings corroborate that priming with FGF2/HGF can improve the differentiation potential of ADSCs. This could be applied in autologous stem cell therapy for skeletal disease in the geriatric population.

Hyaluronic Acid Induction Promotes the Differentiation of Human Neural Crest-like Cells into Periodontal Ligament Stem-like Cells. Cells 2023; 12:2743. [PMID: 38067170 PMCID: PMC10705959 DOI: 10.3390/cells12232743] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/13/2023] [Revised: 11/26/2023] [Accepted: 11/28/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Periodontal ligament (PDL) stem-like cells (PDLSCs) are promising for regeneration of the periodontium because they demonstrate multipotency, high proliferative capacity, and the potential to regenerate bone, cementum, and PDL tissue. However, the transplantation of autologous PDLSCs is restricted by limited availability. Since PDLSCs are derived from neural crest cells (NCs) and NCs persist in adult PDL tissue, we devised to promote the regeneration of the periodontium by activating NCs to differentiate into PDLSCs. SK-N-SH cells, a neuroblastoma cell line that reportedly has NC-like features, seeded on the extracellular matrix of PDL cells for 2 weeks, resulted in the significant upregulation of PDL marker expression. SK-N-SH cell-derived PDLSCs (SK-PDLSCs) presented phenotypic characteristics comparable to induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived PDLSCs (iPDLSCs). The expression levels of various hyaluronic acid (HA)-related genes were upregulated in iPDLSCs and SK-PDLSCs compared with iPSC-derived NCs and SK-N-SH cells, respectively. The knockdown of CD44 in SK-N-SH cells significantly inhibited their ability to differentiate into SK-PDLSCs, while low-molecular HA (LMWHA) induction enhanced SK-PDLSC differentiation. Our findings suggest that SK-N-SH cells could be applied as a new model to induce the differentiation of NCs into PDLSCs and that the LMWHA-CD44 relationship is important for the differentiation of NCs into PDLSCs.

Abstract
Treatment of a wide variety of defects in the oral and maxillofacial regions requires the use of innovative approaches to achieve best outcomes. One of the promising directions is the use of gene-activated materials (GAMs) that represent a combination of tissue engineering and gene therapy. This approach implies that biocompatible materials will be enriched with gene-carrying vectors and implanted into the defect site resulting in transfection of the recipient's cells and secretion of encoded therapeutic protein in situ. GAMs may be presented in various designs depending on the type of material, encoded protein, vector, and way of connecting the vector and the material. Thus, it is possible to choose the most suitable GAM design for the treatment of a particular pathology. The use of plasmids for delivery of therapeutic genes is of particular interest. In the present review, we aimed to delineate the principle of work and various designs of plasmid-based GAMs and to highlight results of experimental and clinical studies devoted to the treatment of periodontitis, jaw bone defects, teeth avulsion, and other pathologies in the oral and maxillofacial regions.

Abstract
With its involvement in cell proliferation, migration and differentiation basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) has great potential for tissue engineering purposes. So far, however, clinical translation of soluble bFGF-based therapies is unsuccessful, because the required effective doses are often supraphysiological, which may cause adverse effects. An effective solution is growth factor immobilization, whereby bFGF retains its bioactivity at increased efficacy. Studied carriers include films, solid scaffolds, and particles, as well as natural and synthetic hydrogels. However, these synthetic hydrogels poorly resemble the characteristics of the native extracellular matrix (ECM). In this work, bFGF is covalently conjugated to the synthetic, but highly biocompatible, polyisocyanide-based hydrogel (PIC-bFGF), which closely mimics the architecture and mechanical properties of the ECM. The growth factor conjugation protocol is straightforward and readily extrapolated to other growth factors or proteins. The PIC-bFGF hydrogel shows a prolonged bioactivity up to 4 weeks although no clear effects on the ECM metabolism are observed. Beyond the future potential of the PIC-bFGF hydrogel toward various tissue engineering applications, this work underlines that simple biological conjugation procedures are a powerful strategy to induce additional bioactivity in 3D synthetic cell culture matrices.

Abstract
Background/purpose Demineralized dentin matrix (DDM) is used as a tissue regeneration scaffold. Effective preservation of DDM benefits clinical applications. Cryopreservation and freeze-drying may be effective methods to retain DDM mechanical properties and biological activity. Materials and methods Human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) isolated using enzymatic dissociation were identified by multidirectional differentiation and flow cytometry. DDM was prepared with EDTA and divided into four groups: fresh DDM (fDDM), room temperature-preserved DDM (rtDDM), cryopreserved DDM (cDDM) and freeze-dried DDM (fdDDM). The DDM surface morphology was observed, and microhardness was detected. Transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), fibroblast growth factor (FGF) and collagen-Ⅰ (COL-Ⅰ) concentrations in DDM liquid extracts were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The hPDLSCs were cultured with DDM liquid extracts. The effect of DDM on cells proliferation was examined by CCK-8 assay. The effect of DDM on hPDLSC secreted phosphoprotein-1 (SPP1), periostin (POSTN) and COL-Ⅰ gene expression was examined by real-time qPCR. Results cDDM dentinal tubules were larger than those of the other groups. The three storage conditions had no significant effect on DDM microhardness and COL-Ⅰ concentration. However, TGF-β1 and FGF concentrations decreased after storage, with the greatest change in rtDDM, followed by fdDDM and cDDM. The liquid extracts of fDDM, cDDM and fdDDM slightly inhibited hPDLSCs proliferation, but those of rtDDM had no significant effect. The hPDLSCs cultured with fDDM, cDDM and fdDDM liquid extracts showed increased SPP1, POSTN and COL-Ⅰ gene expression. Conclusion Cryopreservation and freeze-drying better maintain the mechanical properties and biological activity of DDM.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to assess the clinical effects of periodontal healing using a Romanian pharmaceutical compound of marine fish extract (Alflutop®). Adults with periodontal disease were included in the study group. Gingival inflammation, the degree of tooth mobility, and probing depth (PD) were recorded for each patient before and after therapy. Patients were divided into two groups: group I—after scaling and root planing (SRP), patients followed therapy with marine fish extract, Alflutop®, group II—SRP therapy alone. Statistically significant differences between groups in terms of gingival inflammation reduction (p = 0.045) were found. Tooth mobility reduction, as well as PD improvement, were also noticed after the therapy (p = 0.001), but no statistically significant differences among PD reduction rates were found (p = 0.356). Alflutop® has proven a certain therapeutic efficiency in the treatment of periodontitis in terms of reduction in the clinical signs of inflammation and tooth mobility.

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.

Influence of Bioinspired Lithium-Doped Titanium Implants on Gingival Fibroblast Bioactivity and Biofilm Adhesion. NANOMATERIALS 2021; 11:nano11112799. [PMID: 34835563 PMCID: PMC8618897 DOI: 10.3390/nano11112799] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2021] [Revised: 10/11/2021] [Accepted: 10/14/2021] [Indexed: 01/20/2023]
Abstract
Soft tissue integration (STI) at the transmucosal level around dental implants is crucial for the long-term success of dental implants. Surface modification of titanium dental implants could be an effective way to enhance peri-implant STI. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of bioinspired lithium (Li)-doped Ti surface on the behaviour of human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs) and oral biofilm in vitro. HGFs were cultured on various Ti surfaces—Li-doped Ti (Li_Ti), NaOH_Ti and micro-rough Ti (Control_Ti)—and were evaluated for viability, adhesion, extracellular matrix protein expression and cytokine secretion. Furthermore, single species bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus) and multi-species oral biofilms from saliva were cultured on each surface and assessed for viability and metabolic activity. The results show that both Li_Ti and NaOH_Ti significantly increased the proliferation of HGFs compared to the control. Fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) mRNA levels were significantly increased on Li_Ti and NaOH_Ti at day 7. Moreover, Li_Ti upregulated COL-I and fibronectin gene expression compared to the NaOH_Ti. A significant decrease in bacterial metabolic activity was detected for both the Li_Ti and NaOH_Ti surfaces. Together, these results suggest that bioinspired Li-doped Ti promotes HGF bioactivity while suppressing bacterial adhesion and growth. This is of clinical importance regarding STI improvement during the maintenance phase of the dental implant treatment.

Abstract
Background/purpose Fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) regulates bone formation. The concept of guided bone regeneration using a resorbable collagen membrane (RCM) is generally accepted in implant dentistry. This study aimed to investigate the bone healing pattern in rat mandibular bone defects in real-time with and without RCM containing FGF-2 (RCM/FGF-2). Materials and methods Critical-size circular bone defects (4.0 mm diameter) were created on both sides of the rat mandibular bone. The defects were randomly divided into the following groups: control, RCM alone, RCM containing low (0.5 μg) or high (2.0 μg) concentration of FGF-2. We performed real-time in vivo micro-computerized tomography scans at the baseline and at 2, 4, and 6 weeks, and measured the volume of newly formed bone (NFB), bone mineral density (BMD) of NFB, and the closure percentage of the NFB area. At 6 weeks, the mandibular specimens were assessed histologically and histomorphometrically to evaluate the area of new bone regeneration. Results Real-time assessment revealed a significant increase in the volume, BMD, and closure percentage of the NFB area in the RCM/FGF-2-treated groups than that in the control and RCM groups. In the H-FGF-2 group, the volume and BMD of NFB exhibited a significant increase at 6 weeks than that at the baseline. Histological evaluation revealed the presence of osteoblasts, osteocytes, and blood vessels within the NFB. Conclusion The real-time in vivo experiment demonstrated that RCM/FGF-2 effectively promoted bone regeneration within the critical-size mandibular defects in rats and verified new bone formation starting in the early postoperative phase.

Abstract
Tendons and ligaments are fibrous connective tissues vital to the transmission of force and stabilization of the musculoskeletal system. Arising in precise regions of the embryo, tendons and ligaments share many properties and little is known about the molecular differences that differentiate them. Recent studies have revealed heterogeneity and plasticity within tendon and ligament cells, raising questions regarding the developmental mechanisms regulating tendon and ligament identity. Here, we discuss recent findings that contribute to our understanding of the mechanisms that establish and maintain tendon progenitors and their differentiated progeny in the head, trunk and limb. We also review the extent to which these findings are specific to certain anatomical regions and model organisms, and indicate which findings similarly apply to ligaments. Finally, we address current research regarding the cellular lineages that contribute to tendon and ligament repair, and to what extent their regulation is conserved within tendon and ligament development.

Abstract
Aging is characterized by a progressive decline or loss of physiological functions, leading to increased susceptibility to disease or death. Several aging hallmarks, including genomic instability, cellular senescence, and mitochondrial dysfunction, have been suggested, which often lead to the numerous aging disorders. The periodontium, a complex structure surrounding and supporting the teeth, is composed of the gingiva, periodontal ligament, cementum, and alveolar bone. Supportive and protective roles of the periodontium are very critical to sustain life, but the periodontium undergoes morphological and physiological changes with age. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge of molecular and cellular physiological changes in the periodontium, by focusing on soft tissues including gingiva and periodontal ligament.

Abstract
Hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) affects bone remodeling, since a destructive process in cortical alveolar bone has been linked to it; however, the mechanism remains at large. HHcy increases proinflammatory cytokines viz. TNF-α, IL-1b, IL-6, and IL-8 that leads to a cascade that negatively impacts methionine metabolism and homocysteine cycling. Further, chronic inflammation decreases vitamins B12, B6, and folic acid that are required for methionine homocysteine homeostasis. This study aims to investigate a HHcy mouse model (cystathionine β-synthase deficient, CBS+/-) for studying the potential pathophysiological changes, if any, in the periodontium (gingiva, periodontal ligament, cement, and alveolar bone). We compared the periodontium side-by-side in the CBS+/- model with that of the wild-type (C57BL/6J) mice. Histology and histomorphometry of the mandibular bone along with gene expression analyses were carried out. Also, proangiogenic proteins and metalloproteinases were studied. To our knowledge, this research shows, for the first time, a direct connection between periodontal disease during CBS deficiency, thereby suggesting the existence of disease drivers during the hyperhomocysteinemic condition. Our findings offer opportunities to develop diagnostics/therapeutics for people who suffer from chronic metabolic disorders like HHcy.

Abstract
Protein kinase-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (PERK) is a type I transmembrane protein located in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The PERK-eukaryotic initiation factor 2α (eIF2α)-activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4) pathway has been proved to be involved in osteoblast differentiation, but the involvement of the PERK-eIF2α-ATF4 signaling pathway in osteogenic differentiation of human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) has remained unclear. Therefore, the aim of this study was to explore the role of PERK in osteogenic differentiation of hPDLSCs and to assess whether PERK-eIF2α-ATF4 contributes to the process of osteogenic differentiation in hPDLSCs. In our study, we constructed PERK-overexpressed and PERK-silenced hPDLSCs by lentiviral transduction. Furthermore, lentivirus-transfected cells were induced to differentiate into osteoblast cells for different days. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and Alizarin Red staining were used to evaluate the mineralization capacity, and the expression levels of related genes-ATF4, ALP, bone sialoprotein, runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), and osteocalcin were measured to evaluate the osteogenic differentiation of hPDLSCs. The results showed that over-expression of PERK greatly increased ALP activity and the expression levels of related osteogenic genes, which displayed the strongest osteogenesis capacity. However, suppression of PERK caused decreased ALP activity and the weakest osteogenesis capacity, and the levels of ATF4 and p-eIF2α in PERK-silenced hPDLSCs were also decreased. Our results indicated that the PERK gene plays an important role in the differentiation of hPDLSCs to osteoblast-like cells. The PERK-eIF2α-ATF4 signaling pathway contributes to osteoblast differentiation of hPDLSCs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study investigated the effects of poly lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) loaded with plasmid DNA encoding fibroblast growth factor-2 (pFGF-2) on human periodontal ligament cells (hPDLCs) in vitro and evaluated the ability of the PLGA/pFGF-2 scaffold to promote periodontal ligament (PDL) regeneration in a beagle dog teeth avulsion animal model. BACKGROUND Growth factor and scaffold play important roles in PDL regeneration. PLGA is a kind of biodegradable and biocompatible polymer that can be used as a carrier to deliver growth factors or genes. FGF-2 can induce potent proliferative responses, promote cell migration and regulate the production of extracellular matrix. Therefore, a gene-activated matrix composed of scaffold and genes is supposed to be a superior approach for promoting tissue regeneration. METHODS In this study, PLGA and PLGA/pFGF-2 scaffolds were fabricated using electrospinning. The characterization of scaffolds was shown by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). dsDNA HS was used to test the plasmid release of PLGA/pFGF-2 scaffold. The viability and proliferation of hPDLCs on the two kinds of scaffolds were evaluated by the CCK-8 assay, and the expression of collagen I and scleraxis were analysed by RT-qPCR. The roots of avulsed teeth were covered by the two types of scaffolds and replanted into the alveolar pockets in beagles. Haematoxylin-eosin and Masson staining were used to evaluate the effects of PLGA/pFGF-2 scaffold on promoting PDL regeneration. RESULTS The smooth and uniform fibres can be observed in both scaffolds, and the plasmids were randomly distributed in the PLGA/pFGF-2 scaffold. dsDNA HS analysis demonstrated that the PLGA/pFGF-2 scaffold released up to 123 ng pFGF-2 over 21 days in a sustained manner without any obvious burst release. The PLGA/pFGF-2 scaffold promoted the proliferation of hPDLCs and increased the expression levels of collagen I and scleraxis compared with PLGA scaffold. Animal experiments showed that more regular PDL-like tissues and less root surface resorption occurred in the PLGA/pFGF-2 scaffold group compared with the PLGA scaffold group. CONCLUSIONS The PLGA/pFGF-2 scaffold promoted hPDLCs proliferation and facilitated periodontal ligament-related differentiation. The PLGA/pFGF-2 scaffold possesses excellent biological characteristics and could be used as a promising biomaterial for improving the treatment prognosis of replanted tooth.

Abstract
Dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) are reported to be enriched in stem/progenitor cells, however to the best of our knowledge they have yet to be well documented and characterized. In the present study, in order to characterize DPSCs and the effect of microRNAs (miRs/miRNAs) on DPSC properties, a miRNA array was performed between dental periodontal ligament cells (DPLCs) and DPSCs. The results revealed that miR-224-5p (miR-224) was highly expressed in the DPSCs compared with that in the DPLCs. The transfection of DPSCs with an miR-224 inhibitor impaired cell viability. In addition, miR-224 inhibition significantly promoted cell apoptosis in DPSCscompared with the NC group. In silico analysis and a dual-luciferase reporter assay demonstrated that miR-224 targets the 3′-untranslated region of the Rac family small GTPase 1 (Rac1) gene. miR-224 downregulation resulted in the increased expression of Rac1 in DPSCs compared with DPLCs. Furthermore, miR-224 inhibition caused augmented mitogen-activated protein kinase 8, caspase-3, caspase-9 and Fas ligand expression in DPSC, which may be recovered by Rac1 silencing with transfection with short hairpin RNA-Rac1. Furthermore, Annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate/propidium iodide flow cytometry indicated that the silencing of Rac1 restored the pro-apoptotic DPSC cell number with miR-224 transfection. Therefore, the results of the present study suggested miR-224 in DPSC serves an important function in protecting cells against apoptosis by downregulating Rac1 expression, and also identified miR-224 as a novel miRNA in regulating the features of DPSC.

Abstract
Background Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) regulates maintenance of stemness and modulation of osteo/odontogenic differentiation and mineralization in stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHEDs). Mineralization in the bones and teeth is in part controlled by pericellular levels of inorganic phosphate (Pi), a component of hydroxyapatite, and inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi), an inhibitor of mineralization. The progressive ankylosis protein (gene ANKH; protein ANKH) and ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase phosphodiesterase 1 (ENPP1/ENPP1) increase PPi and inhibit mineralization, while tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (ALPL; TNAP) is a critical pro-mineralization enzyme that hydrolyzes PPi. We hypothesized that regulation by bFGF of mineralization in SHEDs occurs by modulation of Pi/PPi-associated genes. Methods Cells were isolated from human exfoliated deciduous teeth and characterized for mesenchymal stem cell characteristics. Cells were treated with bFGF, and the osteogenic differentiation ability was determined. The mRNA expression was evaluated using real-time polymerase chain reaction. The mineralization was examined using alizarin red S staining. Results Cells isolated from primary teeth expressed mesenchymal stem cell markers, CD44, CD90, and CD105, and were able to differentiate into osteo/odontogenic and adipogenic lineages. Addition of 10 ng/ml bFGF to SHEDs during in vitro osteo/odontogenic differentiation decreased ALPL mRNA expression and ALP enzyme activity, increased ANKH mRNA, and decreased both Pi/PPi ratio and mineral deposition. Effects of bFGF on ALPL and ANKH expression were detected within 24 h. Addition of 20 mM fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) inhibitor SU5402 revealed the necessity of FGFR-mediated signaling, and inclusion of 1 μg/ml cyclohexamide (CHX) implicated the necessity of protein synthesis for effects on ALPL and ANKH. Addition of exogenous 10 μm PPi inhibited mineralization and increased ANKH, collagen type 1a1 (COL1A1), and osteopontin (SPP1) mRNA, while addition of exogenous Pi increased mineralization and osterix (OSX), ANKH, SPP1, and dentin matrix protein 1 (DMP1) mRNA. The effects of PPi and Pi on mineralization could be replicated by short-term 3- and 7-day treatments, suggesting signaling effects in addition to physicochemical regulation of mineral deposition. Conclusion This study reveals for the first time the effects of bFGF on Pi/PPi regulators in SHEDs and implicates these factors in how bFGF directs osteo/odontogenic differentiation and mineralization by these cells.

Abstract
The periodontal ligament displays a reservoir of mesenchymal stem cells which can account for periodontal regeneration. Despite the numerous studies directed at the definition of optimal culture conditions for long-term expansion of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs), no consensus has been reached as to what is the ideal protocol. The aim of the present study was to determine the optimal medium formulation for long-term expansion and stemness maintenance of PDLSCs, in order to obtain a sufficient number of cells for therapeutic approaches. For this purpose, the effects of three different culture medium formulations were evaluated on PDLSCs obtained from three periodontal ligament samples of the same patient: minimum essential medium Eagle, alpha modification (α-MEM), Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM), both supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), and a new medium formulation, Ham's F12 medium, supplemented with 10% FBS, heparin 0.5 U/ml, epidermal growth factor (EGF) 50 ng/ml, fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 25 ng/ml, and bovine serum albumin (BSA) 1% (enriched Ham's F12 medium; EHFM). PDLSCs grown in EHFM displayed a higher PE-CD73 mean fluorescence intensity compared with cells maintained in α-MEM and DMEM, even at later passages. Cells maintained in EHFM displayed an increased population doubling and a reduced population doubling time compared with cells grown in DMEM or α-MEM. α-MEM, DMEM and EHFM with added dexamethasone, 2-phospho-L-ascorbic acid, and β-glycerophosphate were all able to promote alkaline phosphatase activity; however, no calcium deposition was detected in PDLSCs cultured in EHFM-differentiation medium. When EHFM-, α-MEM- and DMEM-expanded PDLSCs were transferred to a commercial culture medium for the osteogenesis, mineralization became much more evident in confluent monolayers of EHFM-expanded PDLSCs compared with DMEM and α-MEM. The results suggest EHFM is the optimal medium formulation for growth and stemness maintenance of primary PDLSCs. Moreover, EHFM confers higher osteogenic potential to PDLSCs compared with cells maintained in the other culture media. Overall, the results of the present work confirmed the advantages of using EHFM for long-term expansion of mesenchymal cells in vitro and the preservation of high osteogenic potential.

Ying Y, Luo J. Salidroside promotes human periodontal ligament cell proliferation and osteocalcin secretion via ERK1/2 and PI3K/Akt signaling pathways. Exp Ther Med 2018; 15:5041-5045. [PMID: 29805528 PMCID: PMC5952094 DOI: 10.3892/etm.2018.6006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2016] [Accepted: 12/21/2017] [Indexed: 01/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Salidroside modulates cell proliferation and serves as an anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic agent with efficacy against various diseases. The objective of the present study was to investigate the efficacy of salidroside in enhancing the proliferation of human periodontal ligament cells (hPDLCs). hPDLCs were isolated and the effects of salidroside on cell viability, soluble osteocalcin levels and activation of proliferation-associated signaling pathways were determined using a CCK-8 assay, ELISA and Western blotting, respectively. The results indicated that salidroside induced proliferation of hPDLCs, increased secretion of soluble osteocalcin and enhanced activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)1/2 and phosphoinositide-3 kinase (PI3K)/Akt signaling pathways. These factors were upregulated by salidroside in a dose-dependent manner. The results of the present study suggested that salidroside mediated hPDLC proliferation via the ERK1/2 and PI3K/Akt signaling pathways, as well as osteocalcin secretion. Salidroside may therefore be used as a novel therapeutic agent in the treatment of the tooth-supporting apparatus, progressive tooth destruction or periodontitis.

Abstract
Fluoride, which is often added to toothpaste or mouthwash in order to protect teeth from decay, may be a novel therapeutic approach for acceleration of periodontal regeneration. Therefore, we investigated the effects of fluoride on proliferation and mineralization in human periodontal ligament cells in vitro. The periodontal ligament cells were stimulated with various concentrations of NaF added into osteogenic inductive medium. Immunohistochemistry of cell identification, cell proliferation, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity assay, Alizarin red S staining and quantitative real-time-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) were performed. Moderate concentrations of NaF (50-500 μmol/L) had pro-proliferation effects, while 500 μmol/L had the best effects. ALP activity and calcium content were significantly enhanced by 10 μmol/L NaF with osteogenic inductive medium. Quantitative RT-PCR data varied in genes as a result of different NaF concentrations and treatment periods. We conclude that moderate concentrations of NaF can stimulate proliferation and mineralization in periodontal ligament cells. These in vitro findings may provide a novel therapeutic approach for acceleration of periodontal regeneration by addition of suitable concentrations of NaF into the medication for periodontitis treatment, i.e., into periodontal packs and tissue patches.

Abstract
Background: Bone is the second most transplanted tissue and due to its complex structure, metabolic demands and various functions, current reconstructive options such as foreign body implants and autologous tissue transfer are limited in their ability to restore defects. Most tissue engineering approaches target osteoinduction of osteoprogenitor cells by modifying the extracellular environment, using scaffolds or targeting intracellular signaling mechanisms or commonly a combination of all of these. Whilst there is no consensus as to what is the optimal cell type or approach, nanotechnology has been proposed as a powerful tool to manipulate the biomolecular and physical environment to direct osteoprogenitor cells to induce bone formation. Methods: Review of the published literature was undertaken to provide an overview of the use of nanotechnology to control osteoprogenitor differentiation and discuss the most recent developments, limitations and future directions. Results: Nanotechnology can be used to stimulate osteoprogenitor differentiation in a variety of way. We have principally classified research into nanotechnology for bone tissue engineering as generating biomimetic scaffolds, a vector to deliver genes or growth factors to cells or to alter the biophysical environment. A number of studies have shown promising results with regards to directing ostroprogenitor cell differentiation although limitations include a lack of in vivo data and incomplete characterization of engineered bone. Conclusion: There is increasing evidence that nanotechnology can be used to direct the fate of osteoprogenitor and promote bone formation. Further analysis of the functional properties and long term survival in animal models is required to assess the maturity and clinical potential of this.
