Abstract
Nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) signaling-mediated inflammation contributes greatly to the pathogenesis of periodontitis. Neddylation, a ubiquitin-like posttranslational modification, is known to regulate NF-κB signaling. DCUN1D1 (defective in cullin neddylation 1 domain containing 1) is a critical factor in neddylation and has been shown to regulate NF-κB activation. However, the previse roles of DCUN1D1 in periodontitis are not fully elucidated. To explore the roles of DCUN1D1 in periodontitis, the expression of DCUN1D1 was measured in gingival tissues of patients with periodontitis. We inhibited DCUN1D1 by siRNA knocking down or using inhibitor in gingival fibroblasts and the lipopolysaccharides (LPS)-induced expression of IL-6 and TNF-α, and activation of NF-κB were measured. The expression of DCUN1D1 was increased in gingival tissues of patients with periodontitis. Knocking down or inhibiting DCUN1D1 suppressed LPS-induced production of IL-6 and TNF-α, decreased NF-κB activity, and inhibited LPS-induced activation of NF-κB. Inhibiting DCUN1D1 ameliorates periodontitis by suppressing NF-κB signaling.

Luo B, Luo Y, He L, Cao Y, Jiang Q. Residual periodontal ligament in the extraction socket promotes the dentin regeneration potential of DPSCs in the rabbit jaw. Stem Cell Res Ther 2023; 14:47. [PMID: 36941706 PMCID: PMC10029302 DOI: 10.1186/s13287-023-03283-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2021] [Accepted: 05/01/2022] [Indexed: 03/23/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Because of the low regeneration efficiency and unclear underlying molecular mechanism, tooth regeneration applications are limited. In this study, we explored the influence of residual periodontal ligament on the dentin regeneration potential of dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) in the jaw. METHODS To establish a tooth regeneration model, the incisors of New Zealand white rabbits were extracted while preserving residual periodontal ligament, followed by the implantation of DPSCs. After 3 months, micro-computed tomography (micro-CT), stereomicroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to observe the volume, morphology and microstructure of regenerated tissue. Histological staining and immunostaining analyses were used to observe the morphological characteristics and expression of the dentin-specific proteins DMP1 and DSPP. To explore the mechanism, DPSCs and periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) were cocultured in vitro, and RNA was collected from the DPSCs for RNA-seq and bioinformatic analysis. RESULTS The results of micro-CT and stereomicroscopy showed that the number of sites with regeneration and the volume of regenerated tissue in the DPSCs/PDL group (6/8, 1.07 ± 0.93 cm3) were larger than those in the DPSCs group (3/8, 0.23 ± 0.41 cm3). The results of SEM showed that the regenerated dentin-like tissue in the DPSCs and DPSCs/PDL groups contained dentin tubules. Haematoxylin and eosin staining and immunohistochemical staining indicated that compared with the DPSCs group, the DPSCs/PDL group showed more regular regenerated tissue and higher expression levels of the dentin-specific proteins DMP1 and DSPP (DMP1: P = 0.02, DSPP: P = 0.01). RNA-seq showed that the coculture of DPSCs with PDLSCs resulted in the DPSCs differentially expressing 427 mRNAs (285 upregulated and 142 downregulated), 41 lncRNAs (26 upregulated and 15 downregulated), 411 circRNAs (224 upregulated and 187 downregulated), and 19 miRNAs (13 upregulated and 5 downregulated). Bioinformatic analysis revealed related Gene Ontology function and signalling pathways, including extracellular matrix (ECM), tumour necrosis factor (TNF) signalling and chemokine signalling pathways. CONCLUSIONS Residual periodontal ligament in the extraction socket promotes the dentin regeneration potential of DPSCs in the jaw. RNA-seq and bioinformatic analysis revealed that ECM, TNF signalling and chemokine signalling pathways may represent the key factors and signalling pathways.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) could be identified in mammalian teeth. Currently, dental-derived MSCs (DMSCs) has become a collective term for all the MSCs isolated from dental pulp, periodontal ligament, dental follicle, apical papilla, and even gingiva. These DMSCs possess similar multipotent potential as bone marrow-derived MSCs, including differentiation into cells that have the characteristics of odontoblasts, cementoblasts, osteoblasts, chondrocytes, myocytes, epithelial cells, neural cells, hepatocytes, and adipocytes. Besides, DMSCs also have powerful immunomodulatory functions, which enable them to orchestrate the surrounding immune microenvironment. These properties enable DMSCs to have a promising approach in injury repair, tissue regeneration, and treatment of various diseases. This review outlines the most recent advances in DMSCs' functions and applications and enlightens how these advances are paving the path for DMSC-based therapies.
