摘要：

Background: Periodontitis is a major oral condition and current treatment outcomes can be unsatisfactory. Macrophages are essential to the regeneration process, so we investigated the influence of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) on macrophage differentiation and the microenvironment and the underlying mechanism.Methods: hDPSCs were isolated from healthy third molars extracted from patients undergoing maxillofacial surgery. The surface antigens CD73, CD45, CD90 and CD11b of the hDPSCs were detected using flow cytometry. hDPSCs were induced for osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation, and the outcome was assessed by alizarin red staining or Oil Red O staining. The IL-6 level released by hDPSCs was measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Tohoku Hospital Pediatrics-1 (THP-1) cells were cultured and induced into macrophages by phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate. After coculture of THP1-derived macrophages with hDPSCs, interleukin 6 (IL-6), Argininase-1 (Arg-1), Mannose receptor C-1 (Mrc-1), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) levels in the medium were measured using ELISA and quantificational RT-PCR (qRT-PCR). The numbers of CD80+ and CD163+ macrophages were counted by immunofluorescence, and GP130/STAT3 signaling protein expression was detected. After coculturing the culture medium of hDPSCs with human bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs), scratch assays and transwell assays were performed to evaluate cell migration and invasion.Results: Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining, alizarin red staining, and western blots were performed to assess osteoblast differentiation. The hDPSCs were positive for surface antigens CD73 and CD90 and negative for CD45 and CD11b expression. The level of IL-6 secreted by hDPSCs significantly increased the number of CD80+ cells as well as the levels of Arg-1 and Mrc-1. It also promoted M2 macrophage polarization and activated GP130/STAT3 signaling. However, the medium cocultured with THP-1-derived macrophages by hDPSCs facilitated the migration, invasion, and osteogenic abilities of human bone marrowConclusions: hDPSCs can regulate the periodontal microenvironment through IL-6 by inducing phenotypic transformation of M2 macrophages and stimulating osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs.
