Many researchers are interested in wound healing in the t reatment of burns, prevention of post surgical adhesions and cosmetic s urgery by excess collagen production and scar formatlOn Synthetic epidermal substi tutes with cultured epi thelial cells seem to be an attractive strategy since keratinocytes have been demonstrated to modulate fibroblast growth and collagen synthesis. Bioa bsorbable and biocompatible chitosan structurally mimics hyaluronic acid. Recently, a bio compatible synthesi zecl ch itosa n-PVP(polyvinyl pyrrolidone) hydrogels demonstrated in vitro biocompat ibi li ty for bio medical applications . However. there is no re port on this hydrogeJ"s ability to modulate human gingival fibroblast growth. The purpose of this study were to investigate different growth modulation between human gingival fibroblast and normal human oral keratinocyte by chitosan- PVP hydrogel, and to apply this biocompatible synthetic polymer to oral and maxillofacial wound healing. We have synthesized a hydrogel from chitosan-PVP and examined its effect on human gingival fibroblast growth modulation in vitro. Non-toxic and biocompatible hydrogel with human gingival fi broblasts and epithelial cells was tested by MTT assay. HGF showed a higher growth proliferation than that of NHOK after cell seeding. In MTT assay, 30% hydrogel leach out products showed a higher cellular viability in NHOK than that of any other products. In MTT assay, 30% hyclrogel leach out products showed relatively lower cellular viability of HGF ln growth profile, NHOK showed about 7 fo lcls higher than HGF after 1 day, while about 2 fo lds higher after 5 days. And also NHOK showed above about 70% cell ular via bility from 1 to 7 days. It suggested that Chitosan-PVP hydrogel would inhibit relatively the growth of HGF and s timulate the growth of NHOK_ This phenomenon may prove to be of use in wound management 0 1' oral and maxillofacial area as epitheli al substitutes.

A case of a distinctive variety of basalαd squamous cell carcinoma (B8CC) of the floor of mouth is described Histologic evaluation of the tumor showed lobules and aggregates of medium-sized basaloid cells with distinctive periph eral palisading and focal areas of comedo- necrosis. This appearance together with microcystic spaces simulated that of an adenoid cystic carcinoma. Accompanying epithelial dysplasia of the overlying mucosa was found. Immunohistochemistry of the tumor revealed diffuse strong expression for cytokeratin AE1/3, focally positive for Epithelial Membrane Antigen in the inner cells of tubular structures However, CEA, 8-100, smooth muscle actin, and vimentin were negative. The histologic differential diagnosis considered were adenoid cystic carcinoma and adenosquamous cell carcinoma Immunohistochemistry and awareness of this unusual pattern of B8CC will facilitate the correct diagnosis being reached.

The diffe rentiation of osteoblasts from mesenchymal precursors requires a series of cell fa te decis ions controlled by a hi erarchy of transcription factors Among these are RUNX2, osterix (OSX) , ATF4 and a la rge number of nuclear co-regulators. During bone development, initial RUNX2 expression coincides with the formation of mesenchyma l con densations well before the branching of chondrogenic and osteogenic lineages. Runx2 is s ubject to a number 0 1' post - tran scriptional controls including regulation by nuclear accessory factors such as ATF4 and DLX5 and post-trans lational mod ificati on, especially phosphOl‘ylation. We previously showed that Runx2-dependent transcription is acti vated by the ex tracellular signal-regulated/MAP kinase pathway in response to ECM/integrin and FGF2 stimulation. To identify and a5sess the function of ERK/MAPK phosphorylation s ites in RUNX2 and esta bli sh the role of MAPK s ignaling in bone fo 1'mation Approaches: A deletion/mutagenesis approach wa5 used to ide ntify 1'egions 0 1' RUNX2 necessary fo1' MAPK responsiveness and phosphorylation.

The aim of t his study was to investigate the cytotoxic and ni t ric oxide (NO)-inducing effects of bismuth oxide (Bi203)-containi ng Portland cement (BPC) on human dental pulp cells. We also assessed whether heme oxygenase-l (HO-l) is involved in BPC-induced cytotox.icity in dental pulp cells Cytotoxicity and NO production induced by BPC were higher than those induced by Portland cement (PC) at 12 and 24 hours, and the former grad ua lly decreased to the level observed for PC. HO- l and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) mRNA expressions in the BPC group showed maximal increase at 24 hours. and it gradually decreased with increasing cultivation tlme Hemin treatment reversed the BPC-induced cytotoxicity ‘ whereas zinc protoporphyrin IX treatment increased the cytotoxicity. These results suggested that NO production by BPC correlates with HO-l exp1'ession in dental pulp cells Moreover ‘ BPC- induced HO-l expression in dental pulp cells plays a protective 1'ole against the cytotox.ic effects of BPC.

Heme oxygenase-l (HO-l) exhibits cyt oprotective effects in many different cell types and is induced by nicotine exposure in human gingival fibroblasts‘ However‘ therole of HO- l in cancer cells exposed to nicotine has not previously been descnbed We investigated the effects of nicotine on HO-l protein expression and cell viability in immortalized (IHOK) and malignant (HN12) human ora l keratinocyte cells using the MTT assay and Western blotting. We al so examined the involvement of t he phosphoinosit ide-3-0H- kinase (PI3K), mitogen-acti vated protein kinase (MAPK) , and nucJear factor-κ B (NF-κ B) signaling pathways in nicotine-induced cytotoxicity and HO- l levels in IHOK and HN12 cell s‘ Nicotine induced HO- l pro ducti on and had cytotoxic effects on cells in both a concentration- and time-dependent manner. Nicotine-induced cytotox icity and accumulation of HO- l were greater in JJ-IOK cells than in HN12 cells Molecular inhibitors of the ERK, p38 MAP kinase, PI3K, and NF-κ B signaling pathways blocked the cytotoxic effects and induction of J-IO-l expression by nicotine. Treatmen t with an t ioxida nts (bil irubin, N-acetyl cysteine) protected cells against nicotine-induced cytotoxicity and blocked the upregula tion of J-IO- l, the effects of which were more pronounced in II-IOK cells than in HN12 cells Collecti vely, these results suggest that J-IO- l plays a principal role in the protective response to nicotine in oral cancel and immortalized keratinocytes. Moreover, the addition of exogenous antioxidants may help to protect oral epithelial cells as chemopreventive agents against nicotine-induced oxidative stress.

Sulfur is commonly used in Asia as a n herba l medicine to treat infl ammation and cancel‘. and potent chemopreventive effects have been demonstrated in various in vivo and in vitromodels for sulfur-containing compounds found in naturally occun‘ ing products. Here, we report the growth inhibitory and apoptosis-related effects of a newly developedhigh- purity eclible sulfur (ES) on immortali zecl human oral keratinocytes (IHOKs) and on oral cancer cells representing two stages of oral can cer (HN4‘ HN12) basecl on an 3-(4. 5-Dimethylt hiazol-2-yl)-2.5-cliphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) a ssay, Western blotting, cell cycle analysis, ancl nuclear staining. The puri ty of the ES used in th is s tucly was verified by high performance liquid chromat ography (HPLC) , amino acid analysis and energy di spersive spectroscopy (EDS). ES inhibitecl the proliferation of immor talized and malignant oral kerati nocytes in a dose- and time-dependent manner FITC-Annexin V staining. DNA fragmentation testing. and Hoechst 33258 staining revealed that ES inhibits cell growth via apoptosis . ES blocked cell-cycle progression at the sub- Gl phase, with decreased expression 0 1' cyclins Dl, D2, and E, and t heir activating partners cdk2, cdk4, and cdk6‘ and a concomitant induction of p53 and p21/WAF1. Furthermore, ES treatment increased the cytosolic level of cytochrome c a nd resulted in caspase-3 activation‘ and thi s effect was correlated wi th Bax up- regulation and Bcl-2 down- regulation Taken together, these clata suggest that ES is a potential chemopreventive and chemotherapeutic agent for oral cancel

Heme oxygenase-l (HO-l) exhibits cyt oprotective effects in many different cell types and is induced by nicotine exposure in human gingival fibroblasts‘ However‘ therole of HO- l in cancer cells exposed to nicotine has not previously been descnbed We investigated the effects of nicotine on HO-l protein expression and cell viability in immortalized (IHOK) and malignant (HN12) human ora l keratinocyte cells using the MTT assay and Western blotting. We al so examined the involvement of t he phosphoinosit ide-3-0H- kinase (PI3K), mitogen-acti vated protein kinase (MAPK) , and nucJear factor-κ B (NF-κ B) signaling pathways in nicotine-induced cytotoxicity and HO- l levels in IHOK and HN12 cell s‘ Nicotine induced HO- l pro ducti on and had cytotoxic effects on cells in both a concentration- and time-dependent manner.

Macrophage inflammatory prote in -3α (M1P-3a 01' CCL20) is an intr땅uing molecule in CanCel‘ irrununotherapy‘ but M1P-3 a expr ession and signaling are not well under s tood in oral cancer cell s. We investigated CCL20 expression a nd signal trans duction by treating immortal ized hllman oral keratinocyte (IHO찌 and oral ca ncer (뻐 4) cells with defe roxa llline (DFO) and examined the mRNA express ion 01' CCL20 using RT- PCR and ELI8A. lHOK and HN4 cells treated with DFO sbowed increased mRNA and protein expression 01' CCL20. and the upregulation 01' DFO-induced CCL20 expression was higher in IHOK cells than in HN4 cells 8elective inhibitors of p38 and ERKl/2 abol ished DF'O- induced CCL20 expression in both lHOK and HN12 cells. and p38 and ERKl/2 inhibitors prevented DFO- induceddegradati on 01' 1 -κ B and NF'-K B activation. Activation 01' c-fos and c-jun also occmred fo l lowing DFO treatment in IHOK and HN4 cells Collectively, these results suggest that DFO-indllced M1 P- 3a. which is involved in the MAP kinase‘ c-fos, c-jun, and NF-K B pathways, may be an important mediator of the a ntitumor immune response in oral keratinocytes ancl warrants con sideration as a target molecule for oral cancer t reatment

om llnique miRNA encoding genes and also from intergene seqllences. 80 far it is generally suggestecl that one miRNA could target multiple genes. and also several miRNAs could be orchestrated to downregulate a s pecific gene. However. there would be many possibilities to procluce more miRNAs and to target gene in more compli catecl manners tha n we expected Here‘ we developed a detection program of miRNA consensus sequences from non- cocling region of genetic corcls As the ha irpin structure 01' tRNA has step-loop like hybridi zation by a single strand RNA. the repeated 3-5 nt symmetric arrangement with 6- 12 nt spanning sequences for hail‘pin head is necessary to form a preCllrsor rruRNA The DNA base pair‘ polarity program symbolizecl by the electrostatic polarities of pyrimidine and purine is now reinforcecl by the cletection program fOI symmetric DNA strand from non-coding regions. For example, we iclentifi ecl candidate miRNAs targeting eIF5A mRNA (miR-eIF5A-l)‘ 288 ribosomal RNA (miR- 28S-1). and dentin sialophosphate protein mRNA (miR- D8PP-1). 1n t his study the detection methocl of 288 ribosomal RNA was demonstrated ancl the molecular biological effects 01' miRNA targeting in vitro culture system were evaluatecl by miRNA RT• PCR, Northen blot, siRNA interference, and in situ hybridization. We firstly sea rched the candidate miRNA from the intron sequences of each objectiγe gene using the programs of syrrunetric sequence cletection a ncl DNA base pair polarity, ancl secondarily siRNA procluced by in vitro transcription and inclucible lenti virus vector cons tru ction was transfectecl into HEK293 cells. The transfectecl siRNA of miR-28S-1 was accumulated in the nucleoli ancl inclllced apoptosis extens ively in 2 days cultur8. Northern blot using miR-288-1 probe showed strong reaction in t he 288 bancJ of total RNA and also showed a smeared band in small size representing the presence of t he precursor and mature miRNAs 이 miR-288-1. In in situ hyridi zation most of cells revealed intensive miR-288-1 positive reaction in their cytopl asms. mirni cking t he abllndant localization of 288 RNA From the above study. we presume that rniRNAs targeting s pecific genes are possibly derivecl from the in tron seq uences of the objective gene, and suggest that the symmetirc sequence detect ion ancl DNA base pair polarity program is useflll to define the candiclate miRNA
