CpG motifs in Porphyromonas gingivalis DNA stimulate interleukin-6 expression in human gingival fibroblasts.
We suggest here that Porphyromonas gingivalis DNA may function as a virulence factor in periodontal disease through expression of inflammatory cytokine. The bacterial DNA markedly stimulated in a dose-dependent manner interleukin-6 (IL-6) production by human gingival fibroblasts. The stimulatory action was eliminated by treatment with DNase but not RNase. The stimulatory effect was not observed...
متن کاملInterleukin-4 Suppresses Interleukin-1-Induced Expression of Matrix Metalloproteinase-3 in Human Gingival Fibroblasts
OBJECTIVE—In periodontitis, matrix metalloproteinase 3 (MMP-3, stromelysin 1) is present at increased levels in active disease sites compared to inactive or healthy sites, and the levels are correlated with clinical parameters and associated with progression of the disease. Interleukin 4 (IL-4) has been shown in other systems to suppress interleukin-1 (IL-1) induced expression of MMP-3, but thi...
متن کاملCeramide induces interleukin 6 gene expression in human fibroblasts
We previously reported that ceramide, the immediate product of sphingomyelin hydrolysis, increases in response to interleukin (IL)-1 beta and plays a role in modulating IL-1 beta-mediated prostaglandin E2 production and cyclooxygenase gene expression in human fibroblasts (Ballou, L. R., C. P. Chao, M. A. Holness, S. C. Barker, and R. Raghow. 1992. J. Biol. Chem. 267:20044-20050). Here we descri...
متن کاملSignaling mechanisms involved in protease-activated receptor-1-mediated interleukin-6 production by human gingival fibroblasts.
Human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs) express protease-activated receptor-1 (PAR-1) at high levels. In cultured HGFs, we studied the signaling pathway of thrombin-induced interleukin-6 (IL-6) production. The PAR-1 agonist peptide SFLLRN mimicked the thrombin-induced IL-6 production in the presence of amastatin, an aminopeptidase inhibitor. Thrombin or a combination of SFLLRN and amastatin also stri...
متن کاملEffect of globular adiponectin on interleukin-6 and interleukin-8 expression in periodontal ligament and gingival fibroblasts
PURPOSE Globular adiponectin (gAd) is a type of adipocytokine, which is mainly produced by adipose tissue. It has been reported that gAd acts as a pro- as well as an anti-inflammatory factor. Interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-8 are pro-inflammatory cytokines. To investigate the role of gAd on periodontal tissues, the expression of adiponectin receptor 1 (AdipoR1) and the effect of gAd on the expression...
