Pyroptotic macrophages induce disruption of glutamate metabolism in periodontal ligament stem cells contributing to their compromised osteogenic potential. Cell Prolif 2024:e13663.

Abstract
Macrophage pyroptosis is of key importance to host defence against pathogen infections and may participate in the progression and recovery of periodontitis. However, the role of pyroptotic macrophages in regulating periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs), the main cell source for periodontium renewal, remains unclear. First, we found that macrophage pyroptosis were enriched in gingiva tissues from periodontitis patients compared with those of healthy people through immunofluorescence. Then the effects of pyroptotic macrophages on the PDLSC osteogenic differentiation were investigated in a conditioned medium (CM)-based coculture system in vitro. CM derived from pyroptotic macrophages inhibited the osteogenic differentiation-related gene and protein levels, ALP activity and mineralized nodule formation of PDLSCs. The osteogenic inhibition of CM was alleviated when pyroptosis was inhibited by VX765. Further, untargeted metabolomics showed that glutamate limitation may be the underlying mechanism. However, exogenous glutamate supplementation aggravated the CM-inhibited osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs. Moreover, CM increased extracellular glutamate and decreased intracellular glutamate levels of PDLSCs, and enhanced the gene and protein expression levels of system xc - (a cystine/glutamate antiporter). After adding cystine to CM-based incubation, the compromised osteogenic potency of PDLSCs was rescued. Our data suggest that macrophage pyroptosis is related to the inflammatory lesions of periodontitis. Either pharmacological inhibition of macrophage pyroptosis or nutritional supplements to PDLSCs, can rescue the compromised osteogenic potency caused by pyroptotic macrophages.

Identifying genes for regulating osteogenic differentiation of human periodontal ligament stem cells in inflammatory environments by bioinformatics analysis. J Periodontal Res 2024; 59:311-324. [PMID: 38082497 DOI: 10.1111/jre.13215] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2023] [Revised: 10/03/2023] [Accepted: 11/15/2023] [Indexed: 03/23/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Periodontitis is an immuno-inflammatory disease caused by dental plaque biofilms and inflammations. The regeneration of bone tissue in inflammatory environment is of great significance for the treatment of periodontal disease, but the specific molecular mechanism of bone formation in periodontitis still needs further exploration. The objective of this study was to identify key osteogenesis-related genes (ORGs) in periodontitis. METHODS We used two datasets from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database to find differentially expressed mRNAs and miRNAs, further performed Gene Ontology (GO) and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis. Then we predicted the downstream genes of the differentially expressed miRNAs (DEMs) by the TargetScan database and established a miRNA-mRNA regulatory network. Finally, the osteogenic mechanism of periodontitis was explored through quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) by inducing inflammatory environment and osteogenic differentiation of hPDLSCs. RESULTS Through differential expression analysis and prediction of downstream target genes of DEMs, we created a miRNA-mRNA regulatory network consisting of 29 DEMs and 11 differentially expressed osteogenesis-related genes (DEORGs). In addition, the qRT-PCR results demonstrated that BTBD3, PLAT, AKAP12, SGK1, and GLCE expression levels were significantly upregulated, while those of TIMP3, ZCCHC14, LIN7A, DNAH6, NNT, and ITGA6 were downregulated under the dual effects of inflammatory stimulation and osteogenic induction. CONCLUSION DEORGs might be important factors in the osteogenic phase of periodontitis, and the miRNA-mRNA network may shed light on the clarification of the role and mechanism of osteogenesis in periodontitis and contribute to the development of novel therapeutic strategies.

Developmental endothelial locus-1 promotes osteogenic differentiation and alveolar bone regeneration in experimental periodontitis with type 2 diabetes mellitus. J Periodontal Res 2024; 59:355-365. [PMID: 38102743 DOI: 10.1111/jre.13219] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2023] [Revised: 10/23/2023] [Accepted: 11/22/2023] [Indexed: 12/17/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study sought to explore the role of developmental endothelial locus-1 (DEL-1) in osteogenic differentiation of human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) and investigate the therapeutic effect of DEL-1 in ligature-induced experimental periodontitis with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). BACKGROUND T2DM is a significant risk factor for periodontitis. Treatment modalities for periodontitis with T2DM are being explored. DEL-1 is a versatile protein that can modulate the different stages of inflammatory diseases including periodontitis. The direct effect of DEL-1 on osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs in periodontitis with T2DM is poorly understood. METHODS Primary hPDLSCs were isolated from periodontal ligament tissue and identified by flow cytometry. In osteogenesis experiments, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), Alizarin Red staining and western blot were used to assess the osteogenic effect of DEL-1 on hPDLSCs in high glucose and inflammation environments. The mouse model of ligature-induced experimental periodontitis was established. H&E and Masson's trichrome staining were used to assess the change of periodontal tissue after local periodontal injection of DEL-1. Immunohistochemical staining was used to evaluate osteogenic-related protein expression. RESULTS hPDLSCs expressed mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-specific surface markers and were negative for hematopoietic cell surface markers. hPDLSCs had the potential for multidirectional differentiation. DEL-1 could enhance the osteogenic differentiation of hPDLSCs in high glucose and inflammation environments, although it did not return to the control level. Histological staining showed that DEL-1 contributed to alveolar bone regeneration and osteogenic-related protein expression, but the degree of improvement in T2DM mice was lower than in non-T2DM mice. CONCLUSIONS In summary, we demonstrated that DEL-1 could promote osteogenic differentiation of hPDLSCs in high glucose and inflammation environment and rescue alveolar bone loss in experimental periodontitis with T2DM, which could provide a novel therapeutic target for periodontitis with T2DM.

Clin Oral Investig 2024; 28:219. [PMID: 38492123 DOI: 10.1007/s00784-024-05616-3] [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: 11/14/2023] [Accepted: 03/10/2024] [Indexed: 03/18/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate the regulatory roles of lncRNA MALAT1, miR-124-3p, and IGF2BP1 in osteogenic differentiation of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs). MATERIALS AND METHODS We characterized PDLSCs by employing quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blot analyses to evaluate the expression of key osteogenic markers including ALPL, SPP1, and RUNX2. Manipulation of lncRNA MALAT1 and miR-124-3p expression levels was achieved through transfection techniques. In addition, early osteogenic differentiation was assessed via Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining, and mineral deposition was quantified using Alizarin Red S (ARS) staining. Cellular localization of lncRNA MALAT1 was determined through Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH). To elucidate the intricate regulatory network, we conducted dual-luciferase reporter assays to decipher the binding interactions between lncRNA MALAT1 and miR-124-3P as well as between miR-124-3P and IGF2BP1. RESULTS Overexpression of lncRNA MALAT1 robustly promoted osteogenesis in PDLSCs, while its knockdown significantly inhibited the process. We confirmed the direct interaction between miR-124-3p and lncRNA MALAT1, underscoring its role in impeding osteogenic differentiation. Notably, IGF2BP1 was identified as a direct binding partner of lncRNA MALAT1, highlighting its pivotal role within this intricate network. Moreover, we determined the optimal IGF2BP1 concentration (50 ng/ml) as a potent enhancer of osteogenesis, effectively countering the inhibition induced by si-MALAT1. Furthermore, in vivo experiments utilizing rat calvarial defects provided compelling evidence, solidifying lncRNA MALAT1's crucial role in bone formation. CONCLUSIONS Our study reveals the regulatory network involving lncRNA MALAT1, miR-124-3p, and IGF2BP1 in PDLSCs' osteogenic differentiation. CLINICAL RELEVANCE These findings enhance our understanding of lncRNA-mediated osteogenesis, offering potential therapeutic implications for periodontal tissue regeneration and the treatment of bone defects.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The application of stem cells in regenerative medicine depends on their biological properties. This scoping review aimed to compare the features of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSSCs) with stem cells derived from other sources. DESIGN An electronic search in PubMed/Medline, Embase, Scopus, Google Scholar and Science Direct was conducted to identify in vitro and in vivo studies limited to English language. RESULTS Overall, 65 articles were included. Most comparisons were made between bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs) and PDLSCs. BMSCs were found to have lower proliferation and higher osteogenesis potential in vitro and in vivo than PDLSCs; on the contrary, dental follicle stem cells and umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UCMSCs) had a higher proliferative ability and lower osteogenesis than PDLSCs. Moreover, UCMSCs exhibited a higher apoptotic rate, hTERT expression, and relative telomerase length. The immunomodulatory function of adipose-derived stem cells and BMSCs was comparable to PDLSCs. Gingival mesenchymal stem cells showed less sensitivity to long-term culture. Both pure and mixed gingival cells had lower osteogenic ability compared to PDLSCs. Comparison of dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) with PDLSCs regarding proliferation rate, osteo/adipogenesis, and immunomodulatory properties was contradictory; however, in vivo bone formation of DPSCs seemed to be lower than PDLSCs. CONCLUSION In light of the performed comparative studies, PDLSCs showed comparable results to stem cells derived from other sources; however, further in vivo studies are needed to determine the actual pros and cons of stem cells in comparison to each other.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Injectable and self-setting calcium phosphate cement scaffold (CPC) capable of encapsulating and delivering stem cells and bioactive agents would be highly beneficial for dental and craniofacial repairs. The objectives of this study were to: (1) develop a novel injectable CPC scaffold encapsulating human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) and metformin (Met) for bone engineering; (2) test bone regeneration efficacy in vitro and in vivo. METHODS hPDLSCs were encapsulated in degradable alginate fibers, which were then mixed into CPC paste. Five groups were tested: (1) CPC control; (2) CPC + hPDLSC-fibers + 0% Met (CPC + hPDLSCs + 0%Met); (3) CPC + hPDLSC-fibers + 0.1% Met (CPC + hPDLSCs + 0.1%Met); (4) CPC + hPDLSC-fibers + 0.2% Met (CPC + hPDLSCs + 0.2%Met); (5) CPC + hPDLSC-fibers + 0.4% Met (CPC + hPDLSCs + 0.4%Met). The injectability, mechanical properties, metformin release, and hPDLSC osteogenic differentiation and bone mineral were determined in vitro. A rat cranial defect model was used to evaluate new bone formation. RESULTS The novel construct had good injectability and physical properties. Alginate fibers degraded in 7 days and released hPDLSCs, with 5-fold increase of proliferation (p<0.05). The ALP activity and mineral synthesis of hPDLSCs were increased by Met delivery (p<0.05). Among all groups, CPC+hPDLSCs+ 0.1%Met showed the greatest cell mineralization and osteogenesis, which were 1.5-10 folds those without Met (p<0.05). Compared to CPC control, CPC+hPDLSCs+ 0.1%Met enhanced bone regeneration in rats by 9 folds, and increased vascularization by 3 folds (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The novel injectable construct with hPDLSC and Met encapsulation demonstrated excellent efficacy for bone regeneration and vascularization in vivo in an animal model. CPC+hPDLSCs+ 0.1%Met is highly promising for dental and craniofacial applications.

Stem Cells Int 2023; 2023:5924286. [PMID: 37396953 PMCID: PMC10313471 DOI: 10.1155/2023/5924286] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2023] [Revised: 05/01/2023] [Accepted: 06/10/2023] [Indexed: 07/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) contain multipotent postnatal stem cells that differentiate into PDL progenitors, osteoblasts, and cementoblasts. Previously, we obtained cementoblast-like cells from hPDLSCs using bone morphogenetic protein 7 (BMP7) treatment. Differentiation into appropriate progenitor cells requires interactions and changes between stem or progenitor cells and their so-called environment niches, and cell surface markers play an important role. However, cementoblast-specific cell surface markers have not yet been fully studied. Through decoy immunization with intact cementoblasts, we developed a series of monoclonal antibodies against cementoblast-specific membrane/extracellular matrix (ECM) molecules. One of these antibodies, the anti-CM3 antibody, recognized an approximate 30 kDa protein in a mouse cementoblast cell line, and the CM3 antigenic molecule accumulated in the cementum region of human tooth roots. Using mass spectrometric analysis, we found that the antigenic molecules recognized by the anti-CM3 antibody were galectin-3. As cementoblastic differentiation progressed, the expression of galectin-3 increased, and it localized at the cell surface. Inhibition of galectin-3 via siRNA and a specific inhibitor showed the complete blockage of cementoblastic differentiation and mineralization. In contrast, ectopic expression of galectin-3 induced cementoblastic differentiation. Galectin-3 interacted with laminin α2 and BMP7, and these interactions were diminished by galectin-3 inhibitors. These results suggested that galectin-3 participates in binding to the ECM component and trapping BMP7 to induce, in a sustained fashion, the upregulation of cementoblastic differentiation. Finally, galectin-3 could be a potential cementoblast-specific cell surface marker, with functional importance in cell-to-ECM interactions.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is an established risk factor for periodontal disease that can aggravate the severity of periodontal inflammation and accelerate periodontal destruction. The chronic high glucose condition is a hallmark of diabetes-related pathogenesis, and has been demonstrated to impair the osteogenic differentiation of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs), leading to delayed recovery of periodontal defects in diabetic patients. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are small molecules that can influence cell fate determination and the direction of cell differentiation. Although excessive accumulation of ROS has been found to be associated with high glucose-induced cell damage, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) is an important electron donor and functions as a critical ROS scavenger in antioxidant systems. It has been identified as a key mediator of various biological processes, including energy metabolism and cell differentiation. However, whether NADPH is involved in the dysregulation of ROS and further compromise of PDLSC osteogenic differentiation under high glucose conditions is still not known. In the present study, we found that PDLSCs incubated under high glucose conditions showed impaired osteogenic differentiation, excessive ROS accumulation and increased NADPH production. Furthermore, after inhibiting the synthesis of NADPH, the osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs was significantly enhanced, accompanied by reduced cellular ROS accumulation. Our findings demonstrated the crucial role of NADPH in regulating cellular osteogenic differentiation under high glucose conditions and suggested a new target for rescuing high glucose-induced cell dysfunction and promoting tissue regeneration in the future.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aims to investigate the regulatory effect of hypoxia on human periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) through RNA sequencing (RNA SEQ). Human PDLSCs were cultured in normoxia (20% O2 ) or hypoxia (2% O2 ). MATERIAL AND METHODS Total RNA was extracted and sequenced. The expression profiles of circRNAs, lncRNAs, and miRNAs were determined, and the lncRNA/circRNA-miRNA-mRNA networks were analyzed. RESULTS In total, 15 miRNAs, 449 lncRNAs, and 53 circRNAs were differentially expressed. Among them, 21 circRNAs, 262 lncRNAs, 5 miRNAs, and 5 mRNAs were selected to construct competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) networks. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analyses were carried out to explore potential related pathways and regulatory functions. Several ceRNA axes (lncRNA-FTX/circRNA-FAT1-hsa-miR-4781-3p-SMAD5 and circRNA LPAR1-hsa-miR-342-3p-ADAR) may provide a theoretical basis on the study of osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs under hypoxia. CONCLUSION This study revealed that the expression profiles of circRNAs, lncRNAs, and miRNAs had changed significantly in PDLSCs cultured in 2% O2 ; specific circRNAs/lncRNAs may play a competitive role in the differentiation of PDLSCs.

Abstract
Temporomandibular disorder (TMD) is an umbrella term used to describe various conditions that affect temporomandibular joints, masticatory muscles, and associated structures. Although the most conservative and least invasive treatment is preferable, more invasive therapies should be employed to refractory patients. Tissue engineering has been presented as a promising therapy. Our study aimed to investigate trends and point out future research directions on TMD and stem cells. A comprehensive search was carried out in the Web of Science Core Collection (WoS-CC) in October 2022. The bibliometric parameters were analyzed through descriptive statistics and graphical mapping. Thus, 125 papers, published between 1992 and 2022 in 65 journals, were selected. The period with the highest number of publications and citations was between 2012 and 2022. China has produced the most publications on the subject. The most frequently used keywords were "cartilage", "temporomandibular joint", "mesenchymal stem cells", and "osteoarthritis". Moreover, the primary type of study was in vivo. It was noticed that using stem cells to improve temporomandibular joint repair and regeneration is a significant subject of investigation. Nonetheless, a greater understanding of the biological interaction and the benefits of using these cells in patients with TMD is required.

Abstract
Management of the growing adult orthodontic patient population must contend with challenges particular to orthodontic treatment in adults. These include a limited rate of tooth movement, increased incidence of periodontal complications, higher risk of iatrogenic root resorption and pulp devitalisation, resorbed edentulous ridges, and lack of growth potential. The field of regenerative dentistry has evolved numerous methods of manipulating cellular and molecular processes to rebuild functional oral and dental tissues, and research continues to advance our understanding of stem cells, signalling factors that stimulate repair and extracellular scaffold interactions for the purposes of tissue engineering. We discuss recent findings in the literature to synthesise our understanding of current and prospective approaches based on biological repair that have the potential to improve orthodontic treatment outcomes in adult patients. Methods such as mesenchymal stem cell transplantation, biomimetic scaffold manipulation, and growth factor control may be employed to overcome the challenges described above, thereby reducing adverse sequelae and improving orthodontic treatment outcomes in adult patients. The overarching goal of such research is to eventually translate these regenerative techniques into clinical practice, and establish a new gold standard of safe, effective, autologous therapies.

Abstract
Periodontitis is the chronic inflammation of the periodontal tissue. The present study aimed to investigate the role of baricitinib, a Janus kinase (JAK)1/2 inhibitor, in periodontitis by using a lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced human periodontal ligament stem cell (PDLSC) model. The viability of PDLSCs stimulated by LPS was assessed in the presence of baricitinib by Cell Counting Kit-8 assay. The induction of oxidative stress was evaluated by detecting the intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and glutathione (GSH) content. ELISA and reverse transcription-quantitative PCR were used to determine the levels of inflammatory factors TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and alizarin red staining were used to assess the osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs. The expression levels of osteogenic differentiation- and JAK/signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) signaling-associated proteins were estimated with western blotting. RO8191, an agonist of the JAK/STAT pathway, was used to treat PDLSCs to investigate the regulatory mechanism of baricitinib. The results indicated that baricitinib elevated the LPS-induced decrease in cell viability. LPS-triggered oxidative stress and inflammation were inhibited by baricitinib, as demonstrated by the decreased levels of ROS, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and increased levels of SOD and GSH. In addition, baricitinib caused a marked elevation in ALP activity and mineralization ability of PDLSCs, as determined by the upregulated osteocalcin and Runt-related transcription factor 2 expression. Moreover, the expression levels of phosphorylated (p)-JAK1, p-JAK2 and p-STAT3 were downregulated by baricitinib in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, addition of RO8191 restored the effect of baricitinib on the induction of oxidative stress, inflammation and osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs exposed to LPS. Collectively, these findings suggested that baricitinib alleviated oxidative stress and inflammation and promoted osteogenic differentiation of LPS-induced PDLSCs by inhibiting JAK/STAT signaling.

Abstract
It is challenging to completely and predictably regenerate the missing periodontal tissues caused by the trauma or disease. To regenerate the periodontium, there is a need to consider several aspects that co-occur with periodontal development. This study provides an overview of the most up-to-date investigations on the characteristics and immunomodulatory features of Periodontal Ligament Stem Cells (PDLSCs) and the recent interventions performed using these cells, focusing on cell survival, proliferation, and differentiation. Keeping in mind the relationship between age and potency of PDLSCs, this work also demonstrates the necessity of establishing dental-derived stem cell banks for tissue regeneration applications. The data were collected from Pubmed and Google Scholar databases with the keywords of periodontal ligament stem cells, tissue engineering, characteristics, and stem cell therapy. The results showed the presence of wide-ranging research reports supporting the usability of PDLSCs for periodontal reconstruction. However, a better understanding of self-restoration for adequate regulation of adult stem cell growth is needed for various applied purposes.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to assess the influence of eucalyptol, chloroform, and Endosolv on the proliferative capability, cell viability, and migration rates of human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) in vitro. Solvent eluates were formulated following ISO 10993-5 guidelines, and 1%, 0.25%, and 0.1% dilutions were prepared. The HPDLSCs were isolated from the extracted third molars of healthy donors. The following parameters were assessed: cell viability via trypan blue and IC50 assays, cell migration via horizontal wound healing assay, cell morphology via cell cytoskeleton staining (phalloidin labeling), and cell oxidative stress via reactive oxygen species assay. The data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA and Tukey’s posthoc tests, and their significance was established at p < 0.05. Chloroform and eucalyptol exhibited significantly higher cytotoxicity on the hPDLSCs in vitro compared to the control group, as shown by the cell viability, migration, morphology, and reactive oxygen species release assays. Alternatively, Endosolv showed adequate cytotoxicity levels comparable to those of the control group. The cytotoxicity of the tested endodontic solvents increased in a dose-dependent manner. The results from the present study highlight the cytotoxicity of chloroform and eucalyptol. Thus, their limited and cautious use is recommended, avoiding solvent extrusion.

Abstract
In recent years, tissue engineering studies have proposed several approaches to regenerate periodontium based on the use of three-dimensional (3D) tissue scaffolds alone or in association with periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs). The rapid evolution of bioprinting has sped up classic regenerative medicine, making the fabrication of multilayered scaffolds-which are essential in targeting the periodontal ligament (PDL)-conceivable. Physiological mechanical loading is fundamental to generate this complex anatomical structure ex vivo. Indeed, loading induces the correct orientation of the fibers forming the PDL and maintains tissue homeostasis, whereas overloading or a failure to adapt to mechanical load can be at least in part responsible for a wrong tissue regeneration using PDLSCs. This review provides a brief overview of the most recent achievements in periodontal tissue engineering, with a particular focus on the use of PDLSCs, which are the best choice for regenerating PDL as well as alveolar bone and cementum. Different scaffolds associated with various manufacturing methods and data derived from the application of different mechanical loading protocols have been analyzed, demonstrating that periodontal tissue engineering represents a proof of concept with high potential for innovative therapies in the near future.

Abstract
Background Despite the recent progress in the differentiation strategies of stem cells into pancreatic beta cell lineage, current protocols are not optimized for different cell types. The purpose of this study is to investigate and compare the ability of stem cells derived from dental pulp (DPSCs) and periodontal ligament (PDLSCs) as two anatomically different dental tissues to differentiate into pancreatic beta cells while assessing the most suitable protocol for each cell type. Methods DPSCs & PDLSCs were isolated and characterized morphologically and phenotypically and then differentiated into pancreatic beta cells using two protocols. Differentiated cells were assessed by qRT-PCR for the expression of pancreatic related markers Foxa-2, Sox-17, PDX-1, Ngn-3, INS and Gcg. Functional assessment of differentiation was performed by quantification of Insulin release via ELISA. Results Protocol 2 implementing Geltrex significantly enhanced the expression levels of all tested genes both in DPSCs & PDLSCs. Both DPSCs & PDLSCs illustrated improved response to increased glucose concentration in comparison to undifferentiated cells. Moreover, DPSCs demonstrated an advanced potency towards pancreatic lineage differentiation over PDLSCs under both protocols. Conclusion In conclusion, the current study reports the promising potential of dental derived stem cells in differentiating into pancreatic lineage through selection of the right protocol.

Metformin combats high glucose-induced damage to the osteogenic differentiation of human periodontal ligament stem cells via inhibition of the NPR3-mediated MAPK pathway. Stem Cell Res Ther 2022; 13:305.

Abstract
Background High glucose-induced damage to the osteogenic differentiation of human periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) has long been a challenge to periodontal regeneration for diabetic individuals. Metformin is an anti-hyperglycemic drug that exhibits abundant biological activities associated with cell metabolism and downstream tissue regeneration. However, how metformin combats damage to PDLSC osteogenic differentiation under high glucose and the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. Methods Osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs was assessed by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining, ALP activity, Alizarin Red staining and quantitative assay, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blot analysis. RNA-seq analysis was performed to screen target genes of metformin, and the effects of target genes were confirmed using lentivirus transfection. Western blot analysis was also used to detect the protein level of underlying signaling pathways. Results We found that osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs under high glucose was decreased, and metformin addition enhanced this capacity of differentiation. Furthermore, the results of RNA-seq analysis showed that natriuretic peptide receptor 3 (NPR3) was upregulated in PDLSCs under high glucose and downregulated after metformin addition. When the underlying pathways involved were investigated, we found that upregulation of NPR3 can compromise the metformin-enhanced PDLSC osteogenic differentiation and activate the MAPK pathway (especially the p38 MAPK and Erk1/2 pathway), and that inhibition of the NPR3-mediated p38 MAPK or Erk1/2 pathway enhanced the osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs under high glucose. Conclusions The present study suggests that metformin may enhance the osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs under high glucose via downregulation of NPR3 and inhibition of its downstream MAPK pathway. This is the first report identifying the involvement of NPR3-mediated MAPK pathway in the metformin-enhanced osteogenic differentiation, indicating that NPR3 antagonists, such as metformin, may be feasible therapeutics for periodontal tissue regeneration in diabetic individuals.

Abstract
Aim: To assess the effects of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-2, BMP-4, and BMP-7 on human periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSC) proliferation and osteogenic differentiation. Methods: PDLSCs were isolated by an immunomagnetic method. Cell surface antigen (CD146, CD44,
and CD34) expression and pluripotency (osteogenic and adipogenic) were determined. In doseresponse and time-course experiments, cultured PDLSCs were treated with individual BMPs, a combination of BMPs in 1:1 ratios, and a mixture of all three BMPs (1:1:1 ratio). In the dose-response experiments,
PDLSCs were incubated for 12 d with medium containing BMPs at a dose of 0, 10, 25, 50, or 100 ng/ml. In the time-course experiments, PDLSCs were administered 50 ng/ml BMPs for different times (0, 3, 6, 12, or 24 d). The 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay
and an enzyme kit were used to quantify cell growth and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity. Immunohistochemistry and western blotting were used to assess the expression of osteogenic differentiation-related proteins, i.e., osteocalcin, bone sialoprotein, collagen type I, and collagen type
III. Results: PDLSCs expressed CD146 (93%) and CD44 (91.2%) but not CD34 (1.8%). All cells exhibited osteogenic and adipogenic potential. PDLSC proliferation and ALP activity in PDLSCs treated with individual BMPs and BMPs combinations increased in a dose- and time-dependent manner;
proliferation and ALP activity were greater upon treatment with BMP combinations than upon treatment with individual BMPs. Compared with those in the control group, osteogenic differentiation-related proteins levels in PDLSCs treated with 50 ng/ml BMPs for 12 d were markedly increased, whereas
no obvious differences were detected between the groups subjected to different BMP treatments. Conclusion: BMP-2, BMP-4, and BMP-7 alone and in combination promoted the development and osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs, and the promotion of these cellular processes was more pronounced
upon treatment with BMP combinations.

Abstract
Ligament-fibroblastic cells and cementoblasts, two types of progenitor cells that differentiate from periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs), are responsible for the formation of the adhesive tissues in the tooth root. Since one of the factors that determines the fate of stem cell differentiation is the change in the microenvironment of the stem/progenitor cells, this study attempted to compare and analyze the molecular differences in the membrane and ECM of the two progenitor cells. Single cells derived from hPDLSCs were treated with TGF-β1 and BMP7 to obtain ligament-fibroblastic and cementoblastic cells, respectively. The transcriptome profiles of three independent replicates of each progenitor were evaluated using next-generation sequencing. The representative differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were verified by qRT-PCR, Western blot analysis, and immunohistochemistry. Among a total of 2245 DEGs identified, 142 and 114 DEGs related to ECM and cell membrane molecules were upregulated in ligament-fibroblastic and cementoblast-like cells, respectively. The major types of integrin and cadherin were found to be different between the two progenitor cells. In addition, the representative core proteins for each glycosaminoglycan-specific proteoglycan class were different between the two progenitors. This study provides a detailed understanding of cell–cell and cell–ECM interactions through the specific components of the membrane and ECM for ligament-fibroblastic and cementoblastic differentiation of hPDLSCs.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a widespread inflammatory disease that leads to loss of the tooth supporting periodontal tissues. The few therapies available to regenerate periodontal tissues have high costs and inherent limitations, inspiring the development of new approaches. Studies have shown that periodontal tissues have an inherent capacity for regeneration, driven by multipotent cells residing in the periodontal ligament (PDL). The purpose of this review is to describe the current understanding of the mechanisms driving periodontal wound healing and regeneration that can inform the development of new treatment approaches. The biologic basis underlying established therapies such as guided tissue regeneration (GTR) and growth factor delivery are reviewed, along with examples of biomaterials that have been engineered to improve the effectiveness of these approaches. Emerging therapies such as those targeting Wnt signaling, periodontal cell delivery or recruitment, and tissue engineered scaffolds are described in the context of periodontal wound healing, using key in vivo studies to illustrate the impact these approaches can have on the formation of new cementum, alveolar bone, and PDL. Finally, design principles for engineering new therapies are suggested which build on current knowledge of periodontal wound healing and regeneration.

Abstract
Increasing attention has been paid to cell-based medicines. Many in vivo and in vitro studies have demonstrated the efficacy of stem cell transplantation for the regeneration of periodontal tissues over the past 20 years. Although positive evidence has accumulated regarding periodontal regeneration using stem cells, the exact mechanism of tissue regeneration is still largely unknown. This review outlines the practicality and emerging problems of stem cell transplantation therapy for periodontal regeneration. In addition, possible solutions to these problems and cell-free treatment are discussed.

Abstract
Several types of promising cell-based therapies for tissue regeneration have been developing worldwide. However, for successful therapeutical application of cells in this field, appropriate scaffolds are also required. Recently, the research for suitable scaffolds has been focusing on polymer hydrogels due to their similarity to the extracellular matrix. The main limitation regarding amino acid-based hydrogels is their difficult and expensive preparation, which can be avoided by using poly(aspartamide) (PASP)-based hydrogels. PASP-based materials can be chemically modified with various bioactive molecules for the final application purpose. In this study, dopamine containing PASP-based scaffolds is investigated, since dopamine influences several cell biological processes, such as adhesion, migration, proliferation, and differentiation, according to the literature. Periodontal ligament cells (PDLCs) of neuroectodermal origin and SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cell line were used for the in vitro experiments. The chemical structure of the polymers and hydrogels was proved by 1H-NMR and FTIR spectroscopy. Scanning electron microscopical (SEM) images confirmed the suitable pore size range of the hydrogels for cell migration. Cell viability assay was carried out according to a standardized protocol using the WST-1 reagent. To visualize three-dimensional cell distribution in the hydrogel matrix, two-photon microscopy was used. According to our results, dopamine containing PASP gels can facilitate vertical cell penetration from the top of the hydrogel in the depth of around 4 cell layers (~150 μm). To quantify these observations, a detailed image analysis process was developed and firstly introduced in this paper.

Abstract
Dental stem cells can differentiate into different types of cells. Dental pulp stem cells, stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth, periodontal ligament stem cells, stem cells from apical papilla, and dental follicle progenitor cells are five different types of dental stem cells that have been identified during different stages of tooth development. The availability of dental stem cells from discarded or removed teeth makes them promising candidates for tissue engineering. In recent years, three-dimensional (3D) tissue scaffolds have been used to reconstruct and restore different anatomical defects. With rapid advances in 3D tissue engineering, dental stem cells have been used in the regeneration of 3D engineered tissue. This review presents an overview of different types of dental stem cells used in 3D tissue regeneration, which are currently the most common type of stem cells used to treat human tissue conditions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Identifying the factors affecting osteoblast differentiation ofperiodontal ligamentcells (PDLCs) can help enhance the regeneration of periodontal tissue.LncRNAplasmacytoma variant translocation 1 (lncPVT1) is an important regulatory factor involved in many biological processes, but its role in osteogenesisremains unclear. METHODS Expressionsof osteogenic markers were detected by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and Western blot analysis. Alkaline phosphatase staining was conducted for early osteoblast differentiation and alizarin red S staining was used for mineral deposition. RNA sequencing was used to identify the miRNAs regulated by lncPVT1 during osteogenesis. Cell transfection was used to overexpress or knockdown lncPVT1 and miR-10a-5p. Dual luciferase reporter assayswere conducted to analyze the binding of miR-10a-5p to brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). RESULTS LncPVT1 was significantly increased during osteogenic induction of PDLCs. Overexpression of lncPVT1 promoted osteogenesis, whereas lncPVT1 knockdown inhibited this process. RNA sequencing showed that miR-10a-5p expression was significantly increased after lncPVT1 knockdown.RNA immunoprecipitation assay further demonstrated the binding potential of lncPVT1 and miR-10a-5p. MiR-10a-5p inhibited the osteogenesis of PDLCs, and partially reversed the stimulatory effects of lncPVT1.Subsequently, we identified a predicted binding site for miR-10a-5p on BDNF and confirmed it using dual luciferase reporter assays. Moreover, lncPVT1 upregulated the expression of BDNF, while miR-10a-5p downregulated BDNF expression. BDNF promoted osteogenesis and partially rescued the si-lncPVT1-mediated inhibition of PDLCs osteogenic differentiation. CONCLUSION LncPVT1 positively regulated the osteogenic differentiation of PDLCs via miR-10a-5p and BDNF.Our resultsprovide a promising target for enhancing the osteogenic potential of PDLCs.

Abstract
This study investigated the effect of three commercial calcium silicate-based materials (CSBM) on cytotoxicity and pro-and anti-inflammatory cytokines production in cultured human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs). Culture of hPDLSCs was established and characterized. Extracts of Bio-C Sealer (Angelus, Londrina, PR, Brazil), MTA Fillapex (Angelus, Londrina, PR, Brazil) and PBS Cimmo HP (Cimmo Soluções em Saúde, Pouso Alegre, MG, Brazil) were prepared by placing cement specimens (5 x 3 mm) in culture medium. Then, the extracts were serially two-fold diluted (1, 1:2, 1:4, 1:8, 1:16) and inserted into the cell-seeded wells for 24, 48 and 72 h for MTT assays. TNF-α and IL-10 cytokines were quantified by ELISA at 24h-cell supernatants. Data were analyzed by ANOVA and Tukey's test (α = 0.05). All CSBM exhibited some cytotoxicity that varied according to extract concentration and time of evaluation. MTA Fillapex presented the highest cytotoxic effects with significant reduction of metabolic activity/cell viability when compared to Bio-C Sealer and Cimmo HP®. TNF-α was significantly upregulated by the three tested cements (p < 0.05) while only MTA Fillapex significantly upregulated IL-10 in comparison to control. Taken collectively, the results showed that PBS Cimmo HP®, Bio-C Sealer and MTA Fillapex present mild and transient cytotoxicity and slightly induced TNF-α production. MTA Fillapex upregulated IL-10 release by hPDLSCs.

Abstract
The osteogenic differentiation of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) is important for periodontal tissue repair and regeneration. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are key regulators of diverse biological processes. However, their roles in PDLSC osteogenic differentiation are still largely unknown. This study explored the effect of LINC00707 and its mechanism on the osteogenic differentiation of human PDLSCs. Results showed an increase in LINC00707 and forkhead box O1 (FOXO1) but a decrease in miR-490-3p during PDLSC osteogenic differentiation. LINC00707 and FOXO1 promoted osteogenic differentiation as evidenced by the formation of calcium nodules and the increase in osteogenic markers such as alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin (OCN), and runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2). LINC00707 and FOXO1 knockdown exhibited opposite effects. Dual-luciferase reporter assay and qRT-PCR showed that LINC00707 can specially bind to miR-490-3p, which reversed the effect of LINC00707 on PDLSCs. MiR-490-3p inhibitor relieved the inhibiting effect of sh-LINC00707 on osteogenic differentiation. Further investigation revealed that LINC00707 can promote osteogenic differentiation by regulating FOXO1 expression through miR-490-3p sponging. Thus, the LINC00707/miR-490-3p/FOXO1 axis modulated PDLSC osteogenic differentiation and might be a promising therapeutic target for periodontal diseases.

Abstract
Background Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has the potential to be used for bone regeneration. However, its effect on osteogenic differentiation of human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) and its effect on cell autophagy of hPDLSCs remain unknown. In this study, we investigated the effects of PRP on cell viability and osteogenic differentiation of hPDLSCs and the underlying molecular mechanisms. Methods hPDLSCs were isolated and identified by morphology and flow cytometry analysis. Next, thrombin-activated PRP was used to stimulate hPDLSCs. The MTT assay was used to analyze cell viability. Osteogenic differentiation was investigated using alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity assay, alizarin red S (ARS) staining, and gene expression analysis of osteogenic markers. Expression of the autophagic proteins was determined using western blotting. Results Thrombin-activated PRP significantly enhanced cell viability, ALP activity, osteogenic-related mRNA levels and alizarin red-mineralization activity in hPDLSCs in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, activated PRP dose-dependently increased LC3-II/I ratio and the expression of SIRT1 and Beclin-1. PRP treatment also enhanced the autophagic flux. It was also demonstrated that the inhibition of SIRT1 using sirtinol or suppression of autophagy by 3-methyladenine (3-MA) abrogated PRP-induced viability and osteogenic differentiation of hPDLSCs. Conclusion Our study suggested that thrombin-activated PRP accelerated the viability and osteogenic differentiation of hPDLSCs via SIRT1-mediated autophagy induction. PRP enhances cell viability and osteogenic differentiation of hPDLSCs. Activated PRP dose-dependently increases cell autophagy. Inhibition of autophagy abrogates PRP-induced osteogenic differentiation of hPDLSCs.

Abstract
The use of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for regenerative purposes has become common in a large variety of diseases. In the dental and maxillofacial field, there are emerging clinical needs that could benefit from MSC-based therapeutic approaches. Even though MSCs can be isolated from different tissues, such as bone marrow, adipose tissue, etc., and are known for their multilineage differentiation, their different anatomical origin can affect the capability to differentiate into a specific tissue. For instance, MSCs isolated from the oral cavity might be more effective than adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) for the treatment of dental defects. Indeed, in the oral cavity, there are different sources of MSCs that have been individually proposed as promising candidates for tissue engineering protocols. The therapeutic strategy based on MSCs can be direct, by using cells as components of the tissue to be regenerated, or indirect, aimed at delivering local growth factors, cytokines, and chemokines produced by the MSCs. Here, the authors outline the major sources of mesenchymal stem cells attainable from the oral cavity and discuss their possible usage in some of the most compelling therapeutic frontiers, such as periodontal disease and dental pulp regeneration.

Abstract
Context: It is a known fact that periodontal tissue regeneration can be achieved by the use of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs). Current mainstay of periodontal treatment is focusing on stem cell tissue engineering as an effective therapy, making it important to isolate PDLSCs from periodontal tissues. Aims: The present research endeavor was undertaken to elucidate a technique for isolating PDLSCs for in vivo reconstructing the natural PDL tissue. Settings and Design: The study design involves In vitro prospective study. Materials and Methods: Premolar teeth were extracted from 12 patients who were under orthodontic treatment. PDL cells were scraped from their roots. Using 10 ml of Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium with pH 7.2, the specimens of the periodontal tissue were transferred to laboratory where cell culture was done. Isolated stem cells were grown on 24-well microtiter plates-containing cover slips. They were incubated overnight at approximately 37°C in 95% air and 5% humidification. Anti-CD 45, CD73, CD90, CD105, and CD146 antibodies were used. After staining, cells were observed under phase-contrast microscopy and in inverted microscope. Results: The cells showed a marked growth and 90% confluence at day 6. Cells presented thin and long fibroblastic spindle morphology. Isolated PDLSCs showed colony-forming ability at the 14th day after seeding. Immunohistochemical staining of PDLSCs showed positive uptake for CD146, CD90, CD73, CD105, and negative uptake for CD45. Conclusions: The human PDLSCs can be clearly isolated and characterized by using CD90, CD73, CD146, and CD105 markers of stem cells.

Abstract
Inflammatory periodontal disease known as periodontitis is one of the most common conditions that affect human teeth and often leads to tooth loss. Due to the complexity of the periodontium, which is composed of several tissues, its regeneration and subsequent return to a homeostatic state is challenging with the therapies currently available. Cellular therapy is increasingly becoming an alternative in regenerative medicine/dentistry, especially therapies using mesenchymal stem cells, as they can be isolated from a myriad of tissues. Periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) are probably the most adequate to be used as a cell source with the aim of regenerating the periodontium. Biological insights have also highlighted PDLSCs as promising immunomodulator agents. In this review, we explore the state of knowledge regarding the properties of PDLSCs, as well as their therapeutic potential, describing current and future clinical applications based on tissue engineering techniques.

Abstract
A plethora of both acute and chronic conditions, including traumatic, degenerative, malignant, or congenital disorders, commonly induce bone disorders often associated with severe persisting pain and limited mobility. Over 1 million surgical procedures involving bone excision, bone grafting, and fracture repair are performed each year in the U.S. alone, resulting in immense levels of public health challenges and corresponding financial burdens. Unfortunately, the innate self-healing capacity of bone is often inadequate for larger defects over a critical size. Moreover, as direct transplantation of committed osteoblasts is hindered by deficient cell availability, limited cell spreading, and poor survivability, an urgent need for novel cell sources for bone regeneration is concurrent. Thanks to the development in stem cell biology and cell reprogramming technology, many multipotent and pluripotent cells that manifest promising osteogenic potential are considered the regenerative remedy for bone defects. Considering these cells' investigation is still in its relative infancy, each of them offers their own particular challenges that must be conquered before the large-scale clinical application.

Abstract
This study investigated the probable mechanisms of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress involved in periodontitis in vitro and in vivo. We isolated periodontal ligament stem cells from periodontitis patients and healthy controls (P-PDLSCs and H-PDLSCs). To further simulate the periodontal microenvironment in patients, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was used to treat H-PDLSCs. The results showed that periodontitis-related inflammation gave rise to the upregulated expression levels of ER stress representative genes including GRP78, PERK, ATF4, and CHOP. In contrast, the treatment of 4-phenyl butyric acid (4-PBA) remarkably suppressed ER stress and supported cell viability. The increased secretion of proinflammatory factors like TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 and the activation of NF-κB pathway were also attenuated by 4-PBA treatment. Moreover, 4-PBA treatment restored the impaired osteogenic differentiation ability of PDLSCs, as demonstrated by the upregulated expression levels of Runx2 and OCN as well as the enhanced Alizarin red staining. Local administration of 4-PBA could rescue alveolar bone resorption of LPS-induced periodontitis rats. Thus, our findings suggested ER stress might act as a promising therapeutic target against periodontitis.

Abstract
CircRNAs are a superabundant and highly conserved group of noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) that are characterized by their high stability and integrity compared with linear forms of ncRNAs. Recently, their critical role in gene expression regulation has been shown; thus, it is not far-fetched to believe that their abnormal expression can be a cause of different kinds of diseases such as cancer, neurodegenerative, and autoimmune diseases. They can have a function in variety of biological processes such as microRNA (miRNA) sponging, interacting with RNA-binding proteins, or even an ability to translate to proteins. A huge challenge in finding diagnostic biomarkers is finding noninvasive biomarkers that can be detected in human fluids, especially blood samples. CircRNAs are becoming candidate biomarkers for diagnosis and prognosis of these diseases through their ability to transverse from the blood-brain barrier and their broad presence in circulating exosomes. The circRNA for miRNA-7 (ciRS-7) is newly recognized, and acknowledged to being related to human pathology and cancer progression. In this review, we first briefly summarize the latest studies about their characteristics, biogenesis, and their mechanisms of action in the regulation and development of human diseases. Finally, we provide a list of diseases that are linked to one member of this novel class of ncRNAs called ciRS-7.

Abstract
Emerging evidence in the literature describes a physical and functional association between the neural and skeletal systems that forms a neuro-osteogenic network. This communication between bone cells and neural tissues within the skeleton is important in facilitating bone skeletal growth, homeostasis and repair. The growth and repair of the skeleton is dependent on correct neural innervation for correct skeletal developmental growth and fracture repair, while pathological conditions such as osteoporosis are accelerated by disruptions to sympathetic innervation. To date, different molecular mechanisms have been reported to mediate communication between bone and neural populations. This review highlights the important role of various cell surface receptors, cytokines and associated ligands as potential regulators of skeletal development, homeostasis, and repair, by mediating interactions between the skeletal and nervous systems. Specifically, this review describes how Bone Morphogenetic Proteins (BMPs), Eph/ephrin, Chemokine CXCL12, Calcitonin Gene-related Peptide (CGRP), Netrins, Neurotrophins (NTs), Slit/Robo and the Semaphorins (Semas) contribute to the cross talk between bone cells and peripheral nerves, and the importance of these interactions in maintaining skeletal health.

Abstract
Rebuilding the tooth-supporting tissues (periodontium) destroyed by periodontitis remains a clinical challenge. Periodontal ligament cells (PDLCs), multipotent cells within the periodontal ligament (PDL), differentiate and form new PDL and mineralized tissues (cementum and bone) during native tissue repair in response to specific extracellular matrix (ECM) cues. Thus, harnessing ECM cues to control PDLC activity ex vivo, and ultimately, to design a PDLC delivery vehicle for tissue regeneration is an important goal. In this study, poly(ethylene glycol) hydrogels were used as a synthetic PDL ECM to interrogate the roles of cell-matrix interactions and cell-mediated matrix remodeling in controlling PDLC activity. Results showed that PDLCs within matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-degradable hydrogels expressed key PDL matrix genes and showed a six to eightfold increase in alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity compared with PDLCs in nondegradable hydrogel controls. The increase in ALP activity, commonly considered an early marker of cementogenic/osteogenic differentiation, occurred independent of the presentation of the cell-binding ligand RGD or soluble media cues and remained elevated when inhibiting PDLC-matrix binding and intracellular tension. ALP activity was further increased in softer hydrogels regardless of degradability and was accompanied by an increase in PDLC volume. However, scaffolds that fostered PDLC ALP activity did not necessarily promote hydrogel ECM mineralization. Rather, matrix mineralization was greatest in stiffer, MMP-degradable hydrogels and required the presence of soluble media cues. These divergent outcomes illustrate the complexity of the PDLC response to ECM cues and the limitations of current scaffold materials. Nevertheless, key biomaterial design principles for controlling PDLC activity were identified for incorporation into scaffolds for periodontal tissue regeneration. Impact statement Engineered scaffolds are an attractive approach for delivering periodontal ligament cells (PDLCs) to rebuild the tooth-supporting tissues. Replicating key extracellular matrix (ECM) cues within tissue engineered scaffolds may maximize PDLC potential. However, the identity of important ECM cues and how they can be harnessed to control PDLC activity is still unknown. In this study, matrix degradability, cell-matrix binding, and stiffness were varied using synthetic poly(ethylene glycol) hydrogels for three-dimensional PDLC culture. PDLCs exhibited dramatic and divergent responses to these cues, supporting further investigation of ECM-replicating scaffolds for control of PDLC behavior and periodontal tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Periodontitis is the most common chronic inflammatory disease, and a leading cause of tooth loss. Characterized by resorption of alveolar process and destruction of periodontal ligaments, periodontitis can impact not only periodontal tissues but also systemic diseases, such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and respiratory infections. Currently, it is a hotspot to manage destruction and gain regeneration of periodontal tissues. Increasing evidence indicates that the Wnt signaling plays an important role in homeostasis of periodontal tissues, functions of periodontal derived cells, and progression of periodontitis. Its molecule expressions were abnormal in periodontitis. As such, modulators targeting the Wnt signaling may be an adjuvant therapy for periodontitis treatment. This review elucidates the role of Wnt signaling and its molecules, with a view to develop a potential application of drugs targeting the Wnt signaling for periodontitis treatment.

Abstract
The benefits of using a surgical microscope in periodontal therapy were mainly based on subjective statements made by patients or periodontists. We aimed to provide laboratory evidence for the advantages of using a surgical microscope during root scaling on periodontitis teeth. In the present study, the extracted teeth were categorized into four groups: normal teeth (normal control [NC] group), untreated periodontitis teeth (periodontitis control [PC] group), root surface scaled without magnification (macro group), and root surface instrumented with a microscope (micro group). To analyze both the mechanical and biological properties of the root surfaces, we performed nanoindentation in addition to the traditional methods. We found that by using a surgical microscope, we improved the clearance of bacterial deposits and calculi on periodontitis root surfaces. Nanoindentation results revealed that the nanotopography pattern, elastic modulus, and nanohardness of the root surface in the micro group were closest to those in the NC group. The immunofluorescence assay and cell proliferation analyses revealed improved morphology and enhanced adhesion and proliferation of periodontal ligament cells on the root surface in the micro group compared with the macro group. After instrumentation, the expression levels of interleukin-6 and interleukin-8 decreased when compared with the PC group. Our results demonstrated that surgical microscope application could improve the outcomes of periodontal treatment, implying that a surgical microscope can be a powerful tool for periodontists to seek accurate clinical periodontal performance and gain better biocompatibility of the treated root surfaces.

Abstract
Osteomyelitis and post-operative infections are major problems in orthopedic, dental and craniofacial surgeries. It is highly desirable for a tissue engineering construct to kill bacteria, while simultaneously delivering stem cells and enhancing cell function and tissue regeneration. The objectives of this study were to: (1) develop a novel injectable calcium phosphate cement (CPC) scaffold containing antibiotic ornidazole (ORZ) while encapsulating human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs), and (2) investigate the inhibition efficacy against Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and the promotion of hPDLSC function for osteogenesis for the first time. ORZ was incorporated into a CPC-chitosan scaffold. hPDLSCs were encapsulated in alginate microbeads (denoted hPDLSCbeads). The ORZ-loaded CPCC+hPDLSCbeads scaffold was fully injectable, and had a flexural strength of 3.50 ± 0.92 MPa and an elastic modulus of 1.30 ± 0.45 GPa, matching those of natural cancellous bone. With 6 days of sustained ORZ release, the CPCC+10ORZ (10% ORZ) scaffold had strong antibacterial effects on S. aureus, with an inhibition zone of 12.47 ± 1.01 mm. No colonies were observed in the CPCC+10ORZ group from 3 to 7 days. ORZ-containing scaffolds were biocompatible with hPDLSCs. CPCC+10ORZ+hPDLSCbeads scaffold with osteogenic medium had 2.4-fold increase in alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and bone mineral synthesis by hPDLSCs, as compared to the control group (p < 0.05). In conclusion, the novel antibacterial construct with stem cell delivery had injectability, good strength, strong antibacterial effects and biocompatibility, supporting osteogenic differentiation and bone mineral synthesis of hPDLSCs. The injectable and mechanically-strong CPCC+10ORZ+hPDLSCbeads construct has great potential for treating bone infections and promoting bone regeneration.

Abstract
Human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) sheets play an important role in periodontal tissue engineering. Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) has been reported as an effective stimulus to regulate cell biological behavior. The present study aims to explore the potential of LIPUS to promote the formation and function of hPDLSC sheets (hPDLSCSs). Hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) staining, western blot, real-time PCR, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and alizarin red staining were used to evaluate the formation and osteogenic effect of LIPUS on hPDLSCSs in vitro. Hydroxyapatite with or without hPDLSCSs was transplanted in the subcutaneous pockets on the back of nude mice and histological analysis was performed. H&E staining showed increased synthesis of extracellular matrix (ECM) and real-time PCR detected a significant increase in ECM-related genes after LIPUS treatment. In addition, LIPUS could promote the expression of osteogenic differentiation-related genes and proteins. ALP and alizarin red staining also found LIPUS enhanced the osteogenesis of hPDLSCSs. After transplantation in vivo, more dense collagen fibers similar to periodontal ligament were regenerated. Collectively, these results indicate that LIPUS not only promotes the formation and osteogenic differentiation of hPDLSCSs but also is a potential treatment strategy for periodontal tissue engineering.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the microstructural composition, ion release, cytocompatibility, and mineralization potential of Bio-C Sealer ION+ (BCI) and EndoSequence BC Sealer HiFlow (BCHiF), compared with AH Plus (AHP), in contact with human periodontal ligament cells (hPDLCs). MATERIALS AND METHODS The sealers' ionic composition and release were assessed using energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), respectively. For the biological assays, hPDLCs were isolated from third molars, and sealer extracts were prepared (undiluted, 1:2, and 1:4 ratios). An MTT assay, wound-healing assay, and cell morphology and adhesion analysis were performed. Activity-related gene expression was determined using RT-qPCR, and mineralization potential was assessed using Alizarin Red staining (ARS). Statistical analyses were performed using one-way ANOVA and Tukey's post hoc test (α < 0.05). RESULTS The three sealers exhibited variable levels of silicon, calcium, zirconium, and tungsten release and in their composition. Both BCI and BCHiF groups showed positive results in cytocompatibility assays, unlike AHP. The BCHiF group showed an upregulation of CAP (p < 0.01), CEMP1, ALP, and RUNX2 (p < 0.001) compared with the negative control, while the BCI group showed an upregulation of CEMP1 (p < 0.01), CAP, and RUNX2 (p < 0.001). Both groups also exhibited a greater mineralization potential than the negative and positive controls (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The calcium silicate-based sealers considered in the present in vitro study exhibited a high calcium ion release, adequate cytocompatibility, upregulated osteo/cementogenic gene expression, and increased mineralized nodule formation in contact with hPDLCs. CLINICAL RELEVANCE From a biological perspective, BCI and BCHiF could be clinically suitable for root canal filling.

MEST Regulates the Stemness of Human Periodontal Ligament Stem Cells. Stem Cells Int 2020; 2020:9672673. [PMID: 32724317 PMCID: PMC7366229 DOI: 10.1155/2020/9672673] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2019] [Revised: 03/02/2020] [Accepted: 03/19/2020] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Periodontal ligament (PDL) stem cells (PDLSCs) have been reported as a useful cell source for periodontal tissue regeneration. However, one of the issues is the difficulty of obtaining a sufficient number of PDLSCs for clinical application because very few PDLSCs can be isolated from PDL tissue of donors. Therefore, we aimed to identify a specific factor that converts human PDL cells into stem-like cells. In this study, microarray analysis comparing the gene profiles of human PDLSC lines (2-14 and 2-23) with those of a cell line with a low differentiation potential (2-52) identified the imprinted gene mesoderm-specific transcript (MEST). MEST was expressed in the cytoplasm of 2-23 cells. Knockdown of MEST by siRNA in 2-23 cells inhibited the expression of stem cell markers, such as CD105, CD146, p75NTR, N-cadherin, and NANOG; the proliferative potential; and multidifferentiation capacity for osteoblasts, adipocytes, and chondrocytes. On the other hand, overexpression of MEST in 2-52 cells enhanced the expression of stem cell markers and PDL-related markers and the multidifferentiation capacity. In addition, MEST-overexpressing 2-52 cells exhibited a change in morphology from a spindle shape to a stem cell-like round shape that was similar to 2-14 and 2-23 cell morphologies. These results suggest that MEST plays a critical role in the maintenance of stemness in PDLSCs and converts PDL cells into PDLSC-like cells. Therefore, this study indicates that MEST may be a therapeutic factor for periodontal tissue regeneration by inducing PDLSCs.

Abstract
Periodontium is consisted of root cementum, bone lining the tooth socket, gingiva facing the tooth, and periodontal ligament (PDL). Its primary functions are support of the tooth and protection of tooth, nerve, and blood vessels from injury by mechanical loading. Severe periodontitis induces the destruction of periodontium and results in a significant cause of tooth loss among adults. Unfortunately, conventional therapies such as scaling and root planning are often only palliative. Therefore, the ultimate goal of the treatment for periodontitis is to restore disrupted periodontium to its original shape and function. Tissue engineering refers to the process of combining cells, scaffolds, and signaling molecules for the production of functional tissues to restore, maintain, and improve damaged organs. The discovery of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) highlighted the possibility for development of tissue engineering technology-based therapeutics for disrupted periodontium. PDLSCs are a kind of somatic stem cells that show potential to differentiate into multiple cell types and undergo robust clonal self-renewal. Therefore, PDLSCs are considered a highly promising stem cell population for regenerative therapy in periodontium; however, their rarity prevents the progression of basic and clinical researches. In this review, we summarize recent research advancement and accumulated information regarding the self-renewal capacity, multipotency, and immunomodulatory effect of PDLSCs, as well as their contribution to repair and regeneration of periodontium and other tissues. We also discuss the possibility of PDLSCs for clinical application of regenerative medicine and provide an outline of the genetic approaches to overcome the issue about the rarity of PDLSCs.

Abstract
Adult stem cells have been developed as therapeutics for tissue regeneration and immune regulation due to their self-renewing, differentiating, and paracrine functions. Recently, a variety of adult stem cells from the oral cavity have been discovered, and these dental stem cells mostly exhibit the characteristics of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Dental MSCs can be applied for the replacement of dental and oral tissues against various tissue-damaging conditions including dental caries, periodontitis, and oral cancers, as well as for systemic regulation of excessive inflammation in immune disorders, such as autoimmune diseases and hypersensitivity. Therefore, in this review, we summarized and updated the types of dental stem cells and their functions to exert therapeutic efficacy against diseases.

Abstract
Periodontitis is the main cause of tooth or tissue loss. Human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs), which have high proliferative, self-renewal and multi-differentiation abilities, are vital for the restoration of periodontitis-induced injuries. The anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic agent, tetramethylpyrazine (TMP), is a promising agent used for the protection of PDLSCs from apoptosis and inflammation induced by periodontitis. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of TMP on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated hPDLSCs. LPS-stimulated hPDLSCs were established as the cell model. CCK-8 assay was performed to evaluate cell viability, western blot analysis was performed to measure protein expression and flow cytometry was performed to detect cell apoptosis levels. Detection kits were used to evaluate the levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-6. Reverse transcription-quantitative PCR analysis was performed to detect gene expression. TMP alleviated the effects of LPS on cell viability, inflammation levels and cell apoptosis. TMP downregulated microRNA (miR)-302b levels in LPS-stimulated cells. Transfection with miR-302b mimic reversed the anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic effects of TMP on LPS-stimulated cells. TMP reduced inflammation and the apoptosis of LPS-stimulated human periodontal ligament cells via the downregulation of miR-302b. The anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic effects exerted by TMP render it a promising agent for the protection of PDLSCs from injuries induced by periodontitis. The findings of the present study may aid in the development of a novel strategy for the treatment of periodontitis and may pave the way for further research.

Characterization and Comparison of Human and Ovine Mesenchymal Stromal Cells from Three Corresponding Sources. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21072310.

Abstract
Currently, there is an increasing focus on mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) as therapeutic option in bone pathologies as well as in general regenerative medicine. Although human MSCs have been extensively characterized and standardized, ovine MSCs are poorly understood. This limitation hampers clinical progress, as sheep are an excellent large animal model for orthopedic studies. Our report describes a direct comparison of human and ovine MSCs from three corresponding sources under the same conditions. All MSCs presented solid growth behavior and potent immunomodulatory capacities. Additionally, we were able to identify common positive (CD29, CD44, CD73, CD90, CD105, CD166) and negative (CD14, CD34, CD45, HLA-DR) surface markers. Although both human and ovine MSCs showed strong osteogenic potential, direct comparison revealed a slower mineralization process in ovine MSCs. Regarding gene expression level, both human and ovine MSCs presented a comparable up-regulation of Runx2 and a trend toward down-regulation of Col1A during osteogenic differentiation. In summary, this side by side comparison defined phenotypic similarities and differences of human and ovine MSCs from three different sources, thereby contributing to a better characterization and standardization of ovine MSCs. The key findings shown in this report demonstrate the utility of ovine MSCs in preclinical studies for MSC-based therapies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Evidence has demonstrated conditioned medium (CM) from periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) improved periodontal regeneration. Gingival mesenchymal stem cells (GMSCs) have been considered an alternative strategy for regenerative medicine. To determine whether GMSC-CM could promote periodontal wound healing, we compared the effects of GMSC-CM and PDLSC-CM on periodontal regeneration and the underlying mechanisms in rat periodontal defects. METHODS Cell-free CMs were collected from PDLSCs, GMSCs, and gingival fibroblasts (GFs) using ultracentrifugation (100-fold concentration). Periodontal defects were created on the buccal side of the first molar in the left mandible of 90 rats by a surgical method. Collagen membranes loaded with concentrated CMs (α-MEM, GF-CM, GMSC-CM, PDLSC-CM) were transplanted into periodontal defects. After 1, 2, and 4 weeks, the animals were sacrificed and specimens including the first molar and the surrounding tissues were separated and decalcified. Hematoxylin-eosin and Masson's trichrome staining were performed to evaluate periodontal regeneration. Immunohistochemical staining for tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, and IL-10 was conducted to analyze inflammation. Immunohistochemistry of BSP-II and Runx2 was performed to analyze osteoblast differentiation. RESULTS Histological analysis showed the amount of newly formed periodontal tissue was significantly higher in both the GMSC-CM and PDLSC-CM groups than in the other groups, with no significant difference between these two groups. At 1 and 2 weeks, the expression levels of TNF-α and IL-1β were significantly lower in the GMSC-CM and PDLSC-CM groups than in the other three groups, while there was no significant difference between these two groups. IL-10 expression was significantly higher in the GMSC-CM group than in the PDLSC-CM group and the other three groups. At 1, 2, and 4 weeks, BSP-II and Runx2 expressions were significantly higher in the GMSC-CM and PDLSC-CM groups than in the other three groups, with no significant difference between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS Our results demonstrate that GMSC-CM transplantation can significantly promote periodontal regeneration in rats and achieve the same effect as PDLSC-CM. The mechanism of periodontal regeneration may involve the regulation of inflammatory factors and the promotion of osteogenic differentiation of bone progenitor cells in the wound region by CMs from MSCs.

Abstract
Regenerative medicine literature has proposed mesenchymal stem/progenitor cell- (MSC-) mediated therapeutic approaches for their great potential in managing various diseases and tissue defects. Dental MSCs represent promising alternatives to nondental MSCs, owing to their ease of harvesting with minimally invasive procedures. Their mechanism of action has been attributed to their cell-to-cell contacts as well as to the paracrine effect of their secreted factors, namely, secretome. In this context, dental MSC-derived secretome/conditioned medium could represent a unique cell-free regenerative and therapeutic approach, with fascinating advantages over parent cells. This article reviews the application of different populations of dental MSC secretome/conditioned medium in in vitro and in vivo animal models, highlights their significant implementation in treating different tissue' diseases, and clarifies the significant bioactive molecules involved in their regenerative potential. The analysis of these recent studies clearly indicate that dental MSCs' secretome/conditioned medium could be effective in treating neural injuries, for dental tissue regeneration, in repairing bone defects, and in managing cardiovascular diseases, diabetes mellitus, hepatic regeneration, and skin injuries, through regulating anti-inflammatory, antiapoptotic, angiogenic, osteogenic, and neurogenic mediators.

Abstract
Tissue engineering and regenerative medicine utilize mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and their secretome in efforts to create or induce functional tissue replacement. Exosomes are specific extracellular vesicles (EVs) secreted by MSCs and other cells that carry informative cargo from the MSC to targeted cells that influence fundamental cellular processes including apoptosis, proliferation, migration, and lineage-specific differentiation. In this report, we review the current knowledge regarding MSC exosome biogenesis, cargo and function. This review summarizes the use of MSC exosomes to control or induce bone, cartilage, dentin, mucosa, and pulp tissue formation. The next-step engineering of exosomes provides additional avenues to enhance oral and craniofacial tissue engineering and regeneration.
