Methods HPDLFs were done primary culture to detect the distinct concentrations of TGF-P and rhBMF2 on its proliferation, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, osteocalcin (OC) synthesis and formation of the minerali-zed nodules, respectively. Results TGF-β (5～100ng/ml) significantly stimulated the proliferation of HPDLFs. The ALP activity of HPDLFs was evaluated evidently by 5ng/ml TGF-β. TGF-β( 0. 5 ～ 100ng/ml) had no effects on OC synthesis and formation of the mineralized nodules of HPDLFs. rhBMP2 (0. 25～2mg/ ml) had no remarkable effect on the proliferation of HPDLFs. The ALP activity, OC synthesis and forma-tion of the mineralized nodules of HPDLFs were significantly stimulated by 0. 5～ 2mg /ml rhBMP2. Conclusion The effects of TGF-β and rhBMP2 on HPDLFs are dose-dependent. TGF-P can stimulate HPDLFs to express the early marker of osteoblastic phenotype, and it lacks the ability to promote maturation of the osteogenic phenotype. rhBMP2 can not only stimulate the expression but also promote the maturation of osteoblas-tic phenotype of HPDLFs.展开更多
Aim: To investigate the expression levels of receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL) and oste-oprotegerin (OPG) in human periodontal ligament fibroblasts when stimulated with heat in infective conditions. Methods:...Aim: To investigate the expression levels of receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL) and oste-oprotegerin (OPG) in human periodontal ligament fibroblasts when stimulated with heat in infective conditions. Methods: Periodontal ligament fibroblasts were subjected to various temperature increases for 5 min with or without 10 ng/mL lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and then maintained at 37℃ for 6 h. After that, the expression levels of RANKL and OPG were investigated using real-time RT-PCR and ELISA. As a positive or negative control, the cells were cultured at 37℃ with or without 10 ng/mL LPS. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA at a significant level of p = 0.05. Results: The mRNA expression levels of RANKL and OPG were both down-regulated when the cells were heated in infective conditions. The release of sRANKL was increased at low temperatures in such infection;while at high temperatures heat treatment down-regulated the release of sRANKL induced by LPS. The relative RANKL/OPG expression ratios were increased at low temperatures in infective conditions. Conclusions: The interactions between heat and LPS would affect the balance between RANKL and OPG in periodontal ligament fibroblasts when they were heated in infective conditions. Such infection may be the reason why bone resorption occurs in the local area after warm vertical compaction.展开更多
