Abstract
Amelogenin directly binds to glucose-regulated protein 78 (Grp78). Cell migration activity is expected to increase when human periodontal ligament cells (hPDLCs) overexpressing Grp78 are treated with amelogenin. Geranylgeranylacetone (GGA) is a drug that induces the expression of heat shock protein and is routinely used to treat gastric ulcers. Here, we investigated the changes in the properties and behavior of hPDLCs in response to treatment with GGA and the synergistic effects of amelogenin stimulation in hPDLCs pretreated with GGA for the establishment of a novel periodontal tissue regenerative therapy. We observed that GGA treatment increased Grp78 protein expression in hPDLCs and enhanced cell migration. Microarray analysis demonstrated that increased Grp78 expression triggered the production of angiopoietin-like 4 and amphiregulin, which are involved in the enhancement of angiogenesis and subsequent wound healing via the activation of hypoxia-inducible factor 1α and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors as well as the phosphorylation of cAMP response element-binding protein and protein kinase A. Moreover, the addition of recombinant murine amelogenin (rM180) further accelerated hPDLC migration and tube formation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells due to the upregulation of interleukin-8 (IL-8), monocyte chemotactic protein 1, and IL-6, which are also known as angiogenesis-inducing factors. These findings suggest that the application of GGA to gingival tissue and alveolar bone damaged by periodontal disease would facilitate the wound healing process by inducing periodontal ligament cells to migrate to the root surface and release cytokines involved in tissue repair. Additionally, supplementation with amelogenin synergistically enhanced the migratory capacity of these cells while actively promoting angiogenesis. Therefore, the combined application of GGA and amelogenin may establish a suitable environment for periodontal wound healing and further drive the development of novel therapeutics for periodontal tissue regeneration.

Amelogenin Downregulates Interferon Gamma-Induced Major Histocompatibility Complex Class II Expression Through Suppression of Euchromatin Formation in the Class II Transactivator Promoter IV Region in Macrophages. Front Immunol 2020; 11:709.

Abstract
Enamel matrix derivatives (EMDs)-based periodontal tissue regenerative therapy is known to promote healing with minimal inflammatory response after periodontal surgery, i. e., it promotes wound healing with reduced pain and swelling. It has also been reported that macrophages stimulated with amelogenin, a major component of EMD, produce various anti-inflammatory cytokines and growth factors. We previously found that stimulation of monocytes with murine recombinant M180 (rM180) amelogenin suppresses major histocompatibility complex class II (MHC II) gene expression using microarray analysis. However, the detailed molecular mechanisms for this process remain unclear. In the present study, we demonstrated that rM180 amelogenin selectively downmodulates the interferon gamma (IFNγ)-induced cell surface expression of MHC II molecules in macrophages and this mechanism mediated by rM180 appeared to be widely conserved across species. Furthermore, rM180 accumulated in the nucleus of macrophages at 15 min after stimulation and inhibited the protein expression of class II transactivator (CIITA) which controls the transcription of MHC II by IFNγ. In addition, reduced MHC II expression on macrophages pretreated with rM180 impaired the expression of T cell activation markers CD25 and CD69, T cell proliferation ability, and IL-2 production by allogenic CD4+ T lymphocytes in mixed lymphocyte reaction assay. The chromatin immunoprecipitation assay showed that IFNγ stimulation increased the acetylation of histone H3 lysine 27, which is important for conversion to euchromatin, as well as the trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 4 levels in the CIITA promoter IV (p-IV) region, but both were suppressed in the group stimulated with IFNγ after rM180 treatment. In conclusion, the present study shows that amelogenin suppresses MHC II expression by altering chromatin structure and inhibiting CIITA p-IV transcription activity, and attenuates subsequent T cell activation. Clinically observed acceleration of wound healing after periodontal surgery by amelogenin may be partially mediated by the mechanism elucidated in this study. In addition, the use of recombinant amelogenin is safe because it is biologically derived protein. Therefore, amelogenin may also be used in future as an immunosuppressant with minimal side effects for organ transplantation or MHC II-linked autoimmune diseases such as type I diabetes, multiple sclerosis, and rheumatoid arthritis, among others.
