Project description:The transcriptome of extracellular vesicles (EVs) from human gingival mesenchymal stem cells (GMSC) hasn't been compenhensively profiled. We performed the RNA-SEQ transcriptomic analysis of EVs from GMSC or Fibroblasts. Guman gingiva samples were collected following routine dental procedures. The primary cultured human dermal fibroblasts were used as a control since them share similar morphologies but lack the functional activities of GMSCs. Primary human dermal fibroblasts were isolated from the foreskin dermis of children aged between 6 and 8 years who underwent surgery.

Project description:EVs derived from HPCs could affect the progression of S. japonicum-induced fibrosis. Considering the EVs’ cargo, small RNAs account for a large proportion of cargoes in EVs, and act as one of the critical post-transcriptional regulators in cell-to-cell communication. Among them, miRNAs are the most studied and their regulatory roles in host–pathogen interactions are increasingly clear. HPCs are a kind of stem cells with potentially bidirectional differentiation ability and interact with hepatic stellate cells during liver injury. The activation of HPCs play an important role during S. japonicum-induced liver fibrosis. We used microarrays to detail the gene expression of SEA-EVs and CON-EVs derived from HPC cell line, LE/6.

Project description:Human mesenchymal stem cells are a promising cell source for the treatment of stroke. Their primary mechanism of action occurs via neuroprotective effects by trophic factors, anti-inflammatory effects, and immunomodulation. However, the regeneration of damaged neuronal networks by cell transplantation remains still challenging. We hypothesized that cells induced to neural lineages would fit the niche, replace the lesion, and be more effective in improving symptoms compared with stem cells themselves. We investigated the characteristics of induced neural cells from human dental pulp tissue and compared the transplantation effects between these induced neural cells and uninduced dental pulp stem cells. Induced neural cells or dental pulp stem cells were intracerebrally transplanted 5 days after cerebral infarction induced by permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion in immunodeficient mice. Effects on functional recovery were also assessed through behavior testing. We used immunohistochemistry and neuron tracing to analyze the differentiation, axonal extension, and connectivity of transplanted cells to the host’s neural circuit. Transplantation of induced neural cells from human dental pulp ameliorated functional recovery after cerebral infarction compared with dental pulp stem cells. The induced neural cells comprised both neurons and glia and expressed functional voltage, and they were more related to neurogenesis in terms of transcriptomics. Induced neural cells had a higher viability than did dental pulp stem cells in hypoxic culture. We showed that induced neural cells from dental pulp tissue offer a novel therapeutic approach for recovery after cerebral infarction.

Project description:Msh homeobox 1 (MSX1) is a transcriptional factor regulating embryonic development of limbs and craniofacial tissues including bone and teeth. The purpose of this study was to investigate contribution of MSX1 to the osteogenic potential and calcification-related phenotypic expression of dental pulp stromal/mesenchymal cells isolated from human teeth. Immunohistochemisitry of a 3 week-old mouse molar showed that MSX1 protein was localized to odontoblasts and pulpal mesenchymal cells at different levels and in different manners depending upon the position of the cells in pulp tissue. When dental pulp stromal/mesenchymal cells were exposed to osteogenesis-induction medium, runt-related transcription factor-2 (RUNX2), bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP2), alkaline phosphatase (ALPL) and osteocalcin (OCN) mRNA levels, as well as alkaline phosphatase activity, increased on days 4-12, and, thereafter, the matrix was calcified on day 14. However, knockdown of MSX1 with small interfering RNA abolished this induction of the osteoblast-related gene expression, alkaline phosphatase activity and calcification. Interestingly, DNA microarray and quantative PCR analyses revealed that the MSX1 knockdown induced the sterol regulatory element-binding protein 2 (SREBP2) transcriptional factor and its downstream target genes in cholesterol-synthesis pathway. Inhibition of cholesterol synthesis enhances osteoblast differentiation of various mesenchymal cells. Thus, MSX1 may down-regulate the cholesterol synthesis-related genes to ensure osteoblast differentiation of dental pulp stromal/mesenchymal cells.

Project description:The goal of this study is to identify unique miRNA profiles of EVs from MCF7 and MCF10A cells that distinguish their cellular origin. 654 human mature miRNAs were analyzed in NanoString assays to identify miRNA with high abundance in MCF7 EVs and the greatest fold change for MCF7 EVs relative to MCF10A EVs.

Project description:Purpose: To compare the transcriptional changes of genes in dental pulp tissues with different degrees of inflammatory severity and investigate the role of RAD54B in inflamed human dental pulp cells (hDPCs) Methods: Normal, carious, and pulpitis human dental pulp tissues were collected. Total RNA extracted were subjected to RNA-sequencing and gene expression profiles were further studied by Gene Ontology (GO) and KEGG pathway analysis. DEGs (differentially expressed genes) in homologous recombination repair (HRR) were validated with qRT-PCR. The expression of RAD54B and TNF-α in human dental pulp tissues was detected by immunohistochemistry. HDPCs were cultured and RAD54B level in hDPCs was detected after LPS stimulation using western blot. CCK-8 was applied to investigate the cell proliferation of hDPCs transfected with negative control (Nc) small interfering RNA (siRNA), RAD54B siRNA, P53 siRNA or both siRNAs with or without LPS stimulation. Flow cytometry was applied to detect the cell cycle distribution, and western blot and immunofluorescence were utilized to analyze the expression of RAD54B, P53 and P21 under the above treatments. One-way and two-way ANOVA followed by LSD posttest were used for statistical analysis. Results: RNA-sequencing results identified DEGs among three groups. KEGG pathway analysis revealed enrichment of DEGs in Replication and Repair pathway. HRR and non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) components were further verified and qRT-PCR results were basically consistent with the sequencing data. RAD54B, a HRR accessory factor highly expressed in carious and pulpitis tissues compared to normal pulp, was chosen as our gene of interest. High RAD54B expression was confirmed in inflamed human dental pulp tissues and LPS-stimulated hDPCs. Upon RAD54B knockdown, P53 and P21 expressions in hDPCs were upregulated whereas the cell proliferation was significantly downregulated, accompanied with increased G2/M phase arrest. After inhibiting P53 expression in RAD54B-knockdown hDPCs, P21 expression and cell proliferation were reversed. Conclusions: Gene expression profiles of normal, carious and pulpitis human dental pulp tissues were revealed. HRR components was elucidated to function in dental pulp inflammation. Among HRR DEGs, RAD54B could regulate the cell proliferation of inflamed hDPCs via P53/P21 signaling. This research not only deepens our understanding of dental pulp inflammation but also provides a new insight to clarify the underlying mechanisms.

Project description:Dental pulp cells obtained from several donors proliferated actively in a serum-free medium STK2. The growth rate of dental pulp cells from most donors was higher in the serum-free medium than that in a medium containing 10% serum. DNA microarray analyses showed that gene expression profile of dental pulp cells grown in the serum-free medium was similar to that of cells grown in a medium containing 10% serum. However, several genes related to cell proliferation were up-regulated in dental pulp cells grown in the serum-free medium.
