NOD2 Mediates Odontoblast Differentiation and RANKL Expression

Abstract: The precise regulation of odontoblast differentiation and osteoclastogenic cytokine expression in human dental pulp cells (HDPCs) is crucial for the pathology of bacteria-related pulpitis. Although the up-regulation of nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-containing protein 2 (NOD2) has been reported in inflamed human dental pulps, the role of NOD2 in the differentiation of HDPCs remains unclear. Here, we show the involvement of NOD2 in odontoblast differentiation together with osteoclastogenic cytokine e… Show more

“…TRAP‐positive multinucleated cells containing three or more nuclei were counted as osteoclasts under a light microscope. To access the osteoclastogenic activity of CM from HPDLCs, pre‐osteoclasts (BMMs treated for 2 days with M‐CSF and RANKL) were further cultured up to 4 days in the presence of CM obtained from HPDLCs with PGJ 2 or HIF‐2α siRNA as previously described [Lee et al, ].…”

“…These modules drive the production of proinflammatory cytokines/chemokines such as interleukin- (IL-) 1, tumor necrosis factor- (TNF-) α , and IL-6 [ 1 , 2 , 5 ]. Cytokines are multifunctional proteins that regulate osteoclast formation and hence bone resorption, modify vascular endothelial permeability, and recruit immune cells to inflamed tissue [ 2 , 6 ].…”

“…However, it has been shown that the activation of NOD2, by bacterial stimulation, displays an alternative role, leading to a suppressed production of inflammatory mediators, but this function is not fully determined (Chauhan and Marriott, 2010). Lee et al (2014) observed that human dental pulp cells stimulated by MDP increase the expression of cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-11, IL-17) that positively regulate osteoclasts differentiation. They also observed that MDP promoted increased RANKL and M-CSF and reduced OPG expression by dental pulp cells.…”
