Effect of nifedipine on the expression of keratinocyte growth factor and its receptor in cocultured/monocultured fibroblasts and keratinocytes

Abstract: The expression of KGF and KGFR are influenced by the interplay of gingival keratinocytes and fibroblasts. Epithelial keratinocytes and mesenchymal fibroblasts may interplay to dynamically regulate gene expression, which may have an effect on the gingival condition following treatment with nifedipine.

“…The hematopoietic growth factor GM‐CSF is another growth factor that was found to regulate dermal keratinocyte growth and differentiation [8], playing an important role during the process of wound healing [20]. Fibroblast‐keratinocyte interactions in skin models strongly enhanced the expression of GM‐CSF [9], KGF and its receptor [21], while dermal keratinocyte‐released IL‐1 induced the expression of both KGF and GM‐CSF [10]. The regulatory mechanism of these two factors in skin homeostasis is a feedback loop within the multiple other epithelial‐mesenchymal interactions: skin keratinocytes release IL‐1α and IL‐1β, which stimulate the release of KGF and GM‐CSF by dermal fibroblasts.…”

“…This response may be due to a compensatory interaction between these different cell types. According to Di et al [45], the expression of KGF (keratinocyte growth factor) and KGFR (keratinocyte growth factor receptor) observed in cocultures of keratinocytes and fibroblasts was influenced by the interaction of these different gingival cells. According to these authors, keratinocytes and fibroblasts can interact to dynamically regulate gene expression, what could have had such an effect on gingival cells conditions after treatment.…”

“…Nifedipine is widely used to treat hypertension and/or angina. Nifedipine-induced gingival overgrowth (NGO) is reported to be the most frequent form of DIGO, with an incidence ranging from 6.3% to 83% [4][5][6]. However, the molecular etiology of NGO is not well understood.…”
