Proinflammatory cytokines induce amelotin transcription in human gingival fibroblasts

CEMP1 Induces Transformation in Human Gingival Fibroblasts

Cementum Protein 1 (CEMP1) is a key regulator of cementogenesis. CEMP1 promotes cell attachment, differentiation, deposition rate, composition, and morphology of hydroxyapatite crystals formed by human cementoblastic cells. Its expression is restricted to cementoblasts and progenitor cell subpopulations present in the periodontal ligament. CEMP1 transfection into non-osteogenic cells such as ad...

Secretory Forms in Human Oral Epithelial Proteinase 3 as Membrane-Bound and Proinflammatory Cytokines Induce

Complete artificial saliva alters expression of proinflammatory cytokines in human dermal fibroblasts.

Complete artificial saliva (CAS) is a saliva substitute often used as a vehicle for test articles, including smokeless tobacco products. In the course of a study employing normal adult human dermal fibroblasts (HDFa) as a model in vitro, we discovered that CAS as a vehicle introduced a significant change in the expression of proinflammatory cytokines. To determine the effects of CAS on gene exp...

Healthy Human Gingival Fibroblasts Cytokines on Interleukin-6 Production by Effect of Lipopolysaccharide and Inflammatory

Cytotoxic Potential of Vasoconstrictor Experimental Gingival Retraction Agents - in Vitro Study on Primary Human Gingival Fibroblasts (gingival margin retraction agents / cytotoxicity / human gingival fibroblasts)

The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the cytotoxic effects of the vasoconstrictor experimental gingival retraction agents (VEGRAs) in a dynamic setting. The strong cytotoxic effects of the astringent-based conventional gingival retraction agents (ACGRAs) on human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs) in vitro was our motivation to evaluate the biocompatibility of the vasoconstrictor-based exper...
