Popis: | Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) has recently been demonstrated to control the expression of alkaline phosphatase and proteoglycan synthesis of odontoblastic cells in dental pulp tissues. Although PDGF appears to be closely related to dentinogenesis, much about the mode of action of PDGF on odontoblast differentiation remains unclear. In this study, we examined the effects of three PDGF dimers (PDGF AA, AB, and BB) on odontoblastic differentiation of dental pulp cells in long-term mineralized cultures. Dental pulp cells isolated from rat lower incisors were continuously treated with each of PDGF AA, AB, and BB in separate cultures for 20 days. The three PDGF dimers suppressed alkaline phosphatase activity, osteocalcin and calcium content, and the formation of dentin-like nodules. The expression of mRNA for dentin sialoprotein (DSP) in the cells was inhibited by PDGF AA treatment, whereas PDGF AB and BB treatment stimulated the expression of DSP, even though the dentin-like nodule formation was inhibited. Although the effects of PDGF on odontoblastic differentiation varied among the dimers, the cells expressed both PDGF alpha and beta receptors, whose quantities were similar. These results suggest that PDGF exerts diverse effects on odontoblastic differentiation depending on its dimeric form. These in vitro findings explain, at least in part, the in vivo action of PDGF in dentinogenesis during the repair process of damaged dental pulp. |
