Identify effects of phenytoin and losartan on TGF‐beta using human gingival fibroblast‐1 (HGF‐1) cells and establish HGF‐1 cell culture as a model to study drug‐induced gingival hyperplasia

Abstract: Purpose The main objectives of this study were 1) to evaluate the effects of phenytoin (antiepileptic drug) and losartan (TGF‐beta inhibitor) on cytotoxicity, ATP, and TGF‐beta in human gingival fibroblasts (HGF‐1) cells, 2) to identify whether losartan inhibits gingival overgrowth caused by phenytoin and 3) to establish HGF‐1 cell culture as a model to study druginduced gingival hyperplasia. Methods HGF‐1 cells obtained from ATCC were grown to 90% confluency in DMEM media supplemented with PenStrep, and bovin… Show more
