چکیده

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Estrogen modulates inflammatory responses, but the mechanisms involved have not yet been identified. Periodontal ligament (PDL) cells produce chemokines (a group of chemoattractant molecules that recruit leukocytes) and it has been suggested that estrogen modulates periodontal inflammation by regulating the expression of chemokines by PDL cells. Therefore, the objectives of this study were to investigate the regulation of chemokine ligand 2 [CCL2/monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1)], chemokine ligand 3 [CCL3/macrophage inflammatory protein-1α (MIP-1α)] and chemokine ligand 5 (CCL5/RANTES) by estrogen in human PDL cells. MATERIAL AND METHODS PDL cells were obtained from the PDL of premolars, extracted for orthodontic reasons, from two boys and two girls (16 and 17 years of age). PDL cell CCL2, CCL3 and CCL5 mRNA transcripts were determined by quantitative real-time PCR. The concentrations of CCL2, CCL3 and CCL5 proteins were determined by ELISAs. RESULTS Treatment with 0.5 μg/mL of lipopolysaccharide (LPS, from Escherichia coli) + 100 nm 17β-estradiol (E(2) ) for 24 h reduced the expression of CCL3 mRNA by about 40% compared to PDL cells treated with LPS alone. Attenuation of CCL3 mRNA was not associated with a decrease in CCL3 protein within 48 h, suggesting a slow turnover of the CCL3 protein. Interindividual differences in the effects of E(2) on CCL5 mRNA expression were observed. E(2) (100 nm) increased the expression of CCL5 by 40-60% in PDL cells derived from two subjects but reduced the expression of CCL5 by about 30% in cells from another subject. CCL2 mRNA and CCL2 protein were highly expressed, but not regulated by E(2) . Similar data were observed in cells obtained from both boys and girls. CONCLUSION Regulation, by estrogen, of chemokine expression in PDL cells shows a complex pattern involving the down-regulation as well as the up-regulation of chemokines, suggesting that estrogen exerts both anti-inflammatory and proinflammatory effects through these mechanisms.

miR-21 and miR-101 regulate PLAP-1 expression in periodontal ligament cells.

Periodontal ligament-associated protein-1 (PLAP-1/asporin) is a special marker in periodontal ligament tissue. It is an important regulator of osteogenic differentiation of periodontal ligament cells (PDLCs). This marker is also a prerequisite for periodontal ligament development and mineralization in maintaining homeostasis of the periodontium. H...

Function of Chemokine (CXC Motif) Ligand 12 in Periodontal Ligament Fibroblasts

The periodontal ligament (PDL) is one of the connective tissues located between the tooth and bone. It is characterized by rapid turnover. Periodontal ligament fibroblasts (PDLFs) play major roles in the rapid turnover of the PDL. Microarray analysis of human PDLFs (HPDLFs) and human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) demonstrated markedly high expression of chemokine (CXC motif) ligand 12 (CXCL12) in t...

Effect of 17-? Estradiol on the Expression of Inducible Nitric oxide Synthase in Parent and Tamoxifen Resistant T47D Breast Cancer Cells

Indirect evidence suggests that estrogen is involved in the etiology of breast cancer. Estrogen is also thought to modulate nitric oxide (NO) in human breast tumor tissue via regulation of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). Objectives of this study were to determine whether estradiol (E2) affects iNOS expression level in breast cancer cells and to study the effect of various concentrations...
