摘要: 目的:研究miR-21对牙周膜干细胞(PDLSCs)炎症状态及成骨分化的影响。方法:收集牙周炎患者和健康人牙龈组织,实时荧光定量PCR(qRT-PCR)检测miR-21的表达。采用10?ng/mL肿瘤坏死因子-α(TNF-α)刺激PDLSCs,模拟体外炎症微环境,qRT-PCR检测miR-21的表达。分别采用miR-21模拟物和miR-21抑制剂对miR-21进行过表达和敲低,qRT-PCR检测miR-21对TNF-α诱导的PDLSCs炎性因子IL-6、IL-1β分泌的影响。通过qRT-PCR和碱性磷酸酶(ALP)染色检测miR-21在PDLSCs成骨分化中的调控作用。结果:qRT-PCR结果显示miR-21在牙周炎患者牙龈组织中表达升高(P<0.05);TNF-α刺激后PDLSCs中miR-21表达上调(P<0.01)。过表达miR-21后,PDLSCs中IL-6、IL-1β表达量降低(P<0.05),敲低miR-21促进IL-6、IL-1β的表达(P<0.05)。PDLSCs成骨诱导过程中,miR-21表达量显著升高(P<0.01)。过表达miR-21后,成骨相关基因RUNX2和OCN表达上调,ALP染色增强(P<0.01);敲低miR-21后成骨相关基因RUNX2和OCN表达下调,ALP染色减弱(P<0.05)。在TNF-α刺激下,PDLSCs成骨能力减弱,过表达miR-21后PDLSCs成骨相关基因RUNX2表达上调,ALP染色增强(P<0.05)。结论:miR-21抑制TNF-α诱导的PDLSCs炎性因子的表达,促进炎症微环境中PDLSCs的成骨分化。

Abstract: Objective:To explore the role of miR-21 in inflammatory response and osteogenic differentiation ofperiodontal ligament stem cell (PDLSCs). Methods:Gingiva samples from periodontitis patients and healthy people were collected and real-time quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was performed to detect the expression of miR-21. 10 ng/mLtumor necrosis factor (TNF-α) was used to stimulate PDLSCs, mimicking inflammatory environment in vitro. QRT-PCR was performed to detect the expression of miR-21. MiR-21 mimics and inhibitors were utilized respectively to overexpress and knockdown miR-21 in PDLSCs. QRT-PCR and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining were performed to confirm the role of miR-21 on the osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs. Results:The expression of miR-21 was upregulated in the gingiva tissues from periodontitis patients(P<0.05). The miR-21 expression in PDLSCs was also upregulated under TNF-α stimulation (P<0.01). Overexpression of miR-21 down-regulated the expression of cytokines IL-6, IL-1βinduced by TNF-α in PDLSCs(P<0.05). Conversely, knocking down miR-21 promoted the expression of those genes(P<0.05). During the osteogenesis induction of PDLSCs, the expression of miR-21 was significantly increased (P<0.01). Overexpression of miR-21 enhanced and knocking down miR-21 alleviated the expression of osteogenic related genes RUNX2, OCNand the ALP staining (P<0.05). In the inflammatory microenvironment, miR-21 overexpression could alleviate the inhibition effect of TNF-α stimulation on osteogenesis of PDLSCs (P<0.05).Conclusions:MiR-21 alleviates the expression of cytokines induced by TNF-α in PDLSCs and promotes osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs in the inflammatory microenvironment.
