Int Immunopharmacol 2021; 96:107772. [PMID: 34162142 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2021.107772] [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: 03/23/2021] [Revised: 05/05/2021] [Accepted: 05/05/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
Malnutrition causes prolonged inflammation, resulting in delayed wound healing. High mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) is a damage-associated molecular pattern that is present in the nuclei of macrophages and is secreted into the extracellular milieu in response to stimuli. It stimulates the production of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) through the receptors for advanced glycation end products (RAGE), inducing an inflammatory response, which is an essential response to initiate wound healing. We hypothesized that malnutrition may interfere with this cascade, causing abnormal inflammation and ultimately delaying wound healing. We used tooth-extracted mice with malnutrition fed with low-casein diet for two weeks. On days 3 and 7 after tooth extraction, the wound tissue was histologically observed and analyzed for several factors in the inflammation-regeneration lineage, including IL-1β, mesenchymal stem cells, myeloperoxidase activity, HMGB1, macrophage polarization, and adenosine 5-triphosphate (ATP). On day 7, delayed wound healing was observed with the following findings under malnutrition conditions: decreased mRNA expression of genes for regeneration and mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) accumulation, an obvious increase in myeloperoxidase and IL-1β mRNA expression, an increase in HMGB1 levels, and an increase in ATP concentration in tissues with elevated proportion of M2 macrophages. These results suggest that the significantly increased secretion of HMGB1 associated with the upregulated production of ATP and IL-1β secretion via the RAGE pathway may interfere with the resolution of inflammation and wound healing under the state of malnutrition.

High mobility group box 1 promotes the differentiation of spinal ependymal cells into astrocytes rather than neurons. Neuroreport 2021; 32:399-406.

Abstract
Spinal ependymal cells are involved in proliferation, differentiation and migration after spinal cord injury (SCI) and represent an endogenous source of repair cells for treating SCI. However, 95% of activated ependymal cells eventually differentiate into astrocytes after SCI and ultimately contribute more than half of the new astrocytes that form glial scars in vivo. The factors that regulate the fate of ependymal cells after SCI remain unclear. High mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is regarded as an important proinflammatory factor in nerve injury, and recent studies have shown that HMGB1 can regulate the fate of stem cells after injury. In this study, we investigated whether HMGB1 released from reactive astrocytes after SCI regulates the proliferation and differentiation of ependymal cells in vitro. Ependymal cells extracted and cultured from the spinal cord of mice were separately treated with astrocyte culture medium (ACM), IL-1β, ACM (IL-1β) and the HMGB1 protein, and the proliferation and differentiation of ependymal cells were detected. Additionally, an HMGB1-neutralizing antibody (anti-HMGB1) was added to further verify the regulatory effect of HMGB1 on ependymal cells. The results showed that HMGB1 released from reactive astrocytes promoted ependymal cell differentiation into astrocytes and inhibited ependymal cell differentiation into neurons in vitro; however, the effect disappeared after the addition of anti-HMGB1. HMGB1 had no significant effect on ependymal cell proliferation. Our findings demonstrate that HMGB1 can regulate the differentiation of ependymal cells after SCI. These results provide a new strategy for the treatment of SCI.

Abstract
High mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is a non-histone DNA-binding protein of about 30 kDa. It is released from a variety of cells into the extracellular milieu in response to inflammatory stimuli and acts on specific cell-surface receptors, such as receptors for advanced glycation end-products (RAGE), Toll-like receptor (TLR)2, TLR4, with or without forming a complex with other molecules. HMGB1 mediates various mechanisms such as inflammation, cell migration, proliferation, and differentiation. On the other hand, HMGB1 enhances chemotaxis acting through the C-X-C motif chemokine ligand (CXCL)12/C-X-C chemokine receptor (CXCR)4 axis and is involved in regeneration. In the oral cavity, high levels of HMGB1 have been detected in the gingival tissue from periodontitis and peri-implantitis patients, and it has been shown that secreted HMGB1 induces pro-inflammatory cytokine expression, such as interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, which prolong inflammation. In contrast, wound healing after tooth extraction or titanium dental implant osseointegration requires an initial acute inflammation, which is regulated by secreted HMGB1. This indicates that secreted HMGB1 regulates angiogenesis and bone remodeling by osteoclast and osteoblast activation and promotes bone healing in oral tissue repair. Therefore, HMGB1 can prolong inflammation in the periodontal tissue and, conversely, can regenerate or repair damaged tissues in the oral cavity. In this review, we highlight the role of HMGB1 in the oral cavity by comparing its function and regulation with its function in other diseases. We also discuss the necessity for further studies in this field to provide more specific scientific evidence for dentistry.

Abstract
Dentin consists of inorganic hard tissue and organic dentin matrix components (DMCs). Various kinds of bioactive molecules are included in DMCs and some of them can be released after digestion by endogenous matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in the caries region. Digested DMCs induced by MMP20 have been reported to promote pulpal wound healing processes, but the released critical molecules responsible for this phenomenon are unclear. Here, we identified protein S100-A7 as a critical molecule for pulpal healing in digested DMCs by comprehensive proteomic approaches and following pulp capping experiments in rat molars. In addition, immunohistochemical results indicated the specific distribution of S100-A7 and receptor for advanced glycation end-products (RAGE) as receptor for S100-A7 in the early stage of the pulpal healing process, and following accumulation of CD146-positive stem cells in wounded pulp. Our findings indicate that protein S100-A7 released from dentin by MMP20 might play a key role in dentin pulp regeneration.

Abstract
Background Extracellular matrix secretion and odontoblastic differentiation in human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) are the cellular bases for reparative dentinogenesis. Osteomodulin (OMD) is a member of the small leucine-rich proteoglycan family distributed in the extracellular matrix but little is known about its role in osteo/odontogenic differentiation. The objective of this study was to investigate the role of OMD during osteo/odontoblastic differentiation of hDPSCs. Methods hDPSCs were selected using immune-magnetic beads and their capability of multi-differentiation was identified. OMD knockdown was achieved using short hairpin RNA (shRNA) lentivirus and was confirmed by western blot. Gene expression was measured by real-time qPCR and osteo/odontoblastic differentiation of hDPSCs was determined by alizarin red S staining. Results Compared with uninduced cells, the transcription of OMD was up-regulated by 35-fold at the late stage of osteo/odontogenic differentiation. shRNA-mediated gene silencing of OMD decreased the expression of odontoblastic genes, such as alkaline phosphatase (ALP), dentin matrix acidic phosphoprotein 1 (DMP1) and dentin sialophosphoprotein (DSPP). Besides, knockdown of OMD attenuated the mineralized nodules formation induced by osteo/odontogenic medium. Conclusions These results implied that OMD may play a pivotal role in modulating the osteo/odontoblastic differentiation of hDPSCs.

Abstract
Odontoblasts located in the outermost layer of dental pulp form a natural barrier between mineralized tissues, dentin, and soft tissues, dental pulp, of the vital tooth, and they first recognize caries-related pathogens and sense external irritations. Therefore, odontoblasts possess a specialized innate immune system to fight oral pathogens invading into dentin. Generally, the rapid initial sensing of microbial pathogens, especially pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) shared by microorganisms, are mediated by pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), such as Toll-like receptor and the nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain (NOD). The innate immune responses in odontoblasts initiated by sensing oral pathogens provide host protective events, such as inflammatory reactions, to produce a variety of pro-inflammatory mediators, including chemokines and cytokines. These attract various inflammatory cells and cause antibacterial reactions, such as the production of defensins, to kill microorganisms in the proximal region of the odontoblast layer. This review focuses on innate immunity, especially cellular and molecular mechanisms regarding the sensing of PAMPs from oral pathogens by PRRs, in odontoblasts and provides information for future studies for the development of novel therapeutic strategies, including diagnosis and treatment, to prevent exceeding dental pulp inflammation and preserve the dental pulp tissues.

Abstract
Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) promotes human dental pulp stem cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation. However, the effects of IGF-1 on the proliferation, apoptosis and odontoblastic differentiation (mineralization) of dental pulp cells (DPCs) under high glucose (GLU) conditions remain unclear. In this study, isolated primary human DPCs were treated with various concentrations of high GLU. Cell proliferation and apoptosis were determined by Cell Counting Kit-8 and Annexin V-FITC/PI assays, respectively. The cells were cultured in odontoblastic induction medium containing various concentrations of high GLU. Odontoblastic differentiation was determined by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity assay. Mineralization formation was evaluated by von Kossa staining. The expression levels of IGF family members were measured by western blot analysis and RT-qPCR during proliferation and differentiation. The cells were then exposed to 25 mM GLU and various concentrations of IGF-1. Cell proliferation, apoptosis, ALP activity, mineralization formation and the levels of mineralization-related proteins were then evaluated. Our results revealed that high GLU significantly inhibited cell proliferation and promoted cell apoptosis. GLU (25 and 50 mM) markedly reduced ALP activity and mineralization on days 7 and 14 after differentiation. The levels of IGF family members were markedly decreased by high GLU during proliferation and differentiation. However, IGF-1 significantly reversed the effects of high GLU on cell proliferation and apoptosis. Additionally, IGF-1 markedly restored the reduction of ALP activity and mineralization induced by high GLU. Our findings thus indicate that IGF-1 attenuates the high GLU-induced inhibition of DPC proliferation, differentiation and mineralization.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study aimed to investigate the functions of delta-like homologue 1 (DLK1) in the proliferation and differentiation of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs). METHODS Immunohistochemical analysis was used to determine the expression of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), dentin sialophosphoprotein (DSPP), DLK1, NOTCH1 and p-ERK1/2 in the mouse first maxillary molar. Recombinant lentivirus was constructed to overexpress DLK1 stably in hDPSCs. The cell viability and proliferation of hDPSCs were examined by CCK8 and EdU incorporation assay respectively. The odontoblastic differentiation of hDPSCs was determined by detection of ALPase activity assay, ALP and alizarin red staining and the expression of mineralization-related genes including ALP, DSPP and dental matrix protein. The mRNA and protein levels of DLK1 and p-ERK1/2 protein expression were detected. ERK inhibitor was used to test the differentiation effect of DLK1 on hDPSCs. RESULTS Delta-like homologue 1 was highly expressed on the odontoblasts and dental pulp cells on the first maxillary molar; the expression of p-ERK1/2 is similar with the DLK1 in the same process. The expression level of DLK1 increased significantly after the odontoblastic induction of hDPSCs. DLK1 overexpression increased the proliferation ability of hDPSCs and inhibited odontoblastic differentiation of hDPSCs. The protein level of p-ERK1/2 significantly increased in hDPSCs/dlk1-oe group. ERK signalling pathway inhibitor reversed the odontoblastic differentiation effects of DLK1 on hDPSCs. CONCLUSIONS The proliferation of hDPSCs was promoted after DLK1 overexpression. DLK1 inhibited the odontoblastic differentiation of hDPSCs, which maybe through ERK signalling pathway.

Abstract
Numerous clinical conditions have been linked to ectopic mineralization (EM). This process of pathological biomineralization is complex and not fully elucidated, but thought to be started within matrix vesicles (MVs). We hypothesized that high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), a cytokine associated with biomineralizing process under physiological and pathological conditions, induces EM via promoting MVs secretion from macrophages. In this study, we found that HMGB1 significantly promoted secretion of MVs from macrophages and subsequently led to mineral deposition in elevated Ca/Pi medium in vitro. Transmission electron microscopy of calcifying MVs showed formation of hydroxyapatite crystals in the vesicle interior. Subcutaneous injection into mice with MVs derived from HMGB1-treated cells showed a greater potential to initiate regional mineralization. Mechanistic experiments revealed that HMGB1 activated neutral sphingomyelinase2 (nSMase2) that involved the receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) and p38 MAPK (upstream of nSMase2). Inhibition of nSMase2 with GW4869 or p38 MAPK with SB-239063 prevented MVs secretion and mineral deposition. Collectively, HMGB1 induces MVs secretion from macrophages at least in part, via the RAGE/p38 MAPK/nSMase2 signaling pathway. Our findings thus reveal a novel mechanism by which HMGB1 induces ectopic mineralization.

The recruitment of dental pulp stem cells (DPSC) is a prerequisite for the regeneration of dentin damaged by severe caries and/or mechanical injury. Understanding the complex process of DPSC recruitment will benefit future in situ tissue engineering applications based on the stimulation of endogenous DPSC for dentin pulp regeneration. The current known mobilization signals and subsequent migration of DPSC towards the lesion site, which is influenced by the pulp inflammatory state and the application of pulp capping materials, are reviewed. The research outcome of migration studies may be affected by the applied methodology, which should thus be chosen with care. Both the advantages and disadvantages of commonly used assays for investigating DPSC migration are discussed. This review highlights the fact that DPSC recruitment is dependent not only on the soluble chemotactic signals, but also on their interaction with neighboring cells and the extracellular matrix, which can be modified under pathological conditions. These are discussed to explain how these modifications lead to the stimulation of DPSC recruitment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate effects of neurotrophin receptor-mediated melanoma antigen-encoding gene homology (NRAGE) on proliferation and odontoblastic differentiation of mouse dental pulp cells (mDPCs). MATERIALS AND METHODS Mouse dental pulp cells were infected with recombinant lentivirus to stably knockdown expression of NRAGE, and biological effects of NRAGE on the cells were detected. Proliferation and odontoblastic differentiation of mDPCs were observed. Simultaneously, mRNA and protein levels of NRAGE and nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) protein expression were detected. Immunofluorescence assay was used to detect expression and location of NRAGE and NF-κB. RESULTS NRAGE mRNA and protein levels reduced significantly after mDPC odontoblastic induction. Knockdown of NRAGE inhibited the proliferation of mDPCs. However, knockdown of NRAGE enhanced their odontoblastic differentiation with up-regulated ALPase activity. It also promoted mineral nodule formation as well as mRNA and protein expressions of ALP, DSPP and DMP1. Protein levels of NF-κB/p50 significantly increased, whereas NF-κB/p105 protein expression decreased in the mDPC/shNRG group. Immunofluorescence revealed that relocation of NF-κB was similar to that of NRAGE during odontoblastic induction, in which NF-κB translocated from the cytoplasm to the nucleus. CONCLUSION NRAGE is a potent regulator of proliferation and odontoblastic differentiation of mDPCs, which might be via the NF-κB signalling pathway.

Expression of high mobility group box 1 in inflamed dental pulp and its chemotactic effect on dental pulp cells. Biochem Biophys Res Commun 2014; 450:1547-52. [PMID: 25019990 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2014.07.027] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/29/2014] [Accepted: 07/06/2014] [Indexed: 01/09/2023]
Abstract
High mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1) is a chromatin protein which can be released extracellularly, eliciting a pro-inflammatory response and promoting tissue repair process. This study aimed to examine the expression and distribution of HMGB1 and its receptor RAGE in inflamed dental pulp tissues, and to assess its effects on proliferation, migration and cytoskeleton of cultured human dental pulp cells (DPCs). Our data demonstrated that cytoplasmic expression of HMGB1 was observed in inflamed pulp tissues, while HMGB1 expression was confined in the nuclei in healthy dental pulp. The mRNA expression of HMGB1 and RAGE were significantly increased in inflamed pulps. In in vitro cultured DPCs, expression of HMGB1 in both protein and mRNA level was up-regulated after treated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Exogenous HMGB1 enhanced DPCs migration in a dose-dependent manner and induced the reorganization of f-actin in DPCs. Our results suggests that HMGB1 are not only involved in the process of dental pulp inflammation, but also play an important role in the recruitment of dental pulp stem cells, promoting pulp repair and regeneration.
