OBJECTIVES: To determine the role of angiogenic factor with G-patch and FHA domain 1 (AGGF1) in inflammatory response of human dental pulp cells (DPCs) and the underneath mechanism and to explore its role in angiogenesis.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The expression of AGGF-1 in human healthy and inflammatory pulp tissues was detected by immunohistochemistry. RT-qPCR and Western blot were used to evaluate the expression of AGGF1 in DPCs stimulated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). After AGGF1 was knocked down, the expression of LPS-induced inflammatory cytokines in DPCs was quantified by RT-qPCR and ELISA. Immunofluorescence and Western blot were used to assess the activation of NF-κB signaling. Inflammatory cytokines were detected by RT-qPCR and ELISA in DPCs pretreated with NF-κB pathway inhibitors before LPS stimulation, and then the effect of AGGF1 on angiogenesis was also evaluated.
RESULTS: AGGF1 expression increased in inflammatory dental pulp tissues. In DPCs stimulated by LPS, AGGF1 was upregulated in a dose-dependent manner (P < 0.05). In AGGF1 knockdown cells, the expression of IL-6, IL-8, and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1/CCL-2) increased by LPS stimulation (P < 0.001). Nuclear translocation of p65 was promoted, and the addition of NF-κB inhibitors inhibited the expression of inflammatory factors. Meanwhile, knockdown of AGGF1 inhibited vascularization.
CONCLUSIONS: AGGF1 inhibited the synthesis of inflammatory cytokines through NF-κB signaling pathway and promoted the angiogenesis of DPCs.
CLINICAL RELEVANCE: This study might shed light in the treatment of pulpitis and regeneration of dental pulp tissues; however, more clinical trials are required to validate these findings.
