doi: 10.3390/md22120571

Figure Lengend Snippet: The effect of nanoliposomes/CS exposure on IL-1β-stimulated MMPs. Human chondrocytes were stimulated or not with 1 ng/mL IL-1β and exposed to nanoliposomes (250 µg/mL) or nanoliposomes and CS extracts (250 µg/mL+ 25 µg/mL). For ( A , B , E ), total RNA was extracted after 24 h stimulation then reverse transcribed into cDNA and analyzed by RT-PCR. The relative abundance of MMP1, MMP3, and MMP13 mRNAs was normalized to RP29 mRNA. Comparison was performed using the ΔCt method with the fold value of reference = 1. The results shown are the mean ± SD of at least four individual experiments (*: p < 0.01 vs. control; #: p < 0.01 vs. IL-1β). For ( C , D , F ) levels of MMP1, 3, and 13 after 48 h of stimulation (*: p < 0.01 vs. control; #: p < 0.01 vs. IL-1β).

Article Title: The Histone-Deacetylase-Inhibitor Suberoylanilide Hydroxamic Acid Promotes Dental Pulp Repair Mechanisms Through Modulation of Matrix Metalloproteinase-13 Activity

doi: 10.1002/jcp.25128

Figure Lengend Snippet: The effects of SAHA on MMP-13 protein expression and enzyme activity. (A) Cell lysates from selected time points (1, 7, 14, and 21 days) were normalised using a Bradford dye-binding method and total MMP-13 protein levels quantified for each time point. MMP-13 production was analysed by ELISA. (B) A range of MMP-13i concentrations were added to samples of recombinant MMP-9, −13 and enzyme activity was measured fluorogenically for each inhibitor concentration. MMP-13 activity was blocked dose-dependently, but MMP-9 was not significantly altered. All experimental MMP-13i concentrations tested significantly decreased MMP-13 enzyme activity. (C/D) The effects of SAHA and a pharmacological MMP-13i on MMP-13 enzyme activity in mineralizing DPCs. DPCs were cultured in mineralizing medium±SAHA/MMP-13i and compared with mineralizing and non-mineralizing control cultures at 48 h (C) and 14 days (D). MMP-13 activity (measured fluorogenically) increased in mineralizing culture and in the presence of SAHA at both experimental time-points. As the commercial FRET substrate was preferentially, but not exclusively cleaved by MMP-13, the selective MMP-13 inhibition was used to analyse the role of MMP-13. Selective MMP-13 inhibition significantly reduced enzyme activity in the SAHA cultures. Error bars represent SEM of three independent experiments carried out in triplicate. Significant difference P<0.05, denoted by asterix (*) between experimental group and normal medium control, symbol (^) between experimental group and mineralizing medium control and symbol (‡) between mineralizing medium+SAHA and mineralizing medium+SAHA+MMP-13i.

Article Title: The Histone-Deacetylase-Inhibitor Suberoylanilide Hydroxamic Acid Promotes Dental Pulp Repair Mechanisms Through Modulation of Matrix Metalloproteinase-13 Activity

doi: 10.1002/jcp.25128

Figure Lengend Snippet: The effects of SAHA and MMP-13 activity on dental pulp cell (DPC) migration. (A) Vertical migration of DPCs measured by transwell migration assay at 37°C for 3 h. Positive control (supplemented medium and 10% FCS), 1 and 3μM SAHA had a statistically significantly greater effect on cell migration compared with the negative control. MMP-13i (1 and 2μM) and SAHA in combination with 2μM MMP-13i was not significantly different compared with the negative control, indicating the MMP-13 may be partly responsible for the migratory effects of DPCs. (B) Quantitative data from (C/D) showing cell migration in response to HDACis. (B) Horizontal migration of DPCs by wound healing scratch assay. The effect roles of 1 μm SAHA on the migration and motility of rat DPCs quantified from 24 hour scratch assay. Cells were treated with 1 μM SAHA for 24 h and a scratch made in the confluent cell monolayer. Images were obtained at 0 (Ci–iv) and 24 h post wounding (Di–iv). Values are mean±SEM for 3 independent experiments carried out in triplicate. Asterisks (*) show significant differences compared with control (P<0.05). Scale bars indicate 100μm.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Overview schematic illustration highlighting the potential roles of MMP-13 is reparative dentinogenesis. (A) HDACi (SAHA) applied topically to exposed damaged pulp tissue, accelerates mineralization processes (and the expression of a range of mineralization-associated transcripts) and increases expression of MMP-13 in pulp cells. The expression of MMP-13 is central to the control of mineralization processes and the activation of a range of bioactive molecules by cleavage. These molecules could potentially promote angiogenesis, mineralization and cell migration. Increased MMP-13 expression has also been shown in inflamed dental DP cell lines (Zhang et al., 2013), which may have additional implications for dental pup healing. (B) Dental progenitor cells migrate from vasculature in central pulp under influence of bioactive molecules to injury site. Thereafter, the progenitor cells differentiate into odontoblast-like cells. MMP-13 may directly influence this recruitment process by increasing cell migration or by cleavage of matrix-bound dentin matrix proteins to increase chemotaxis and differentiation. Additionally MMP-13 (and other MMP collagenases) will breakdown extracellular matrix further increasing migration and stimulating repair. (C) Fossilised dentine matrix proteins leach into the pulp as a result of caries (Smith et al., 2008) or restorative materials (Schröder, 1985; Tomson et al., 2007) to promote reparative events. Growth factors released by MMP-cleavage (including MMP-13) further stimulate reparative response.
