Abstract:
Objective??To?evaluate?the?effects?of?Icariin?(ICA)?on?the?proliferation?and?osteogenic?differentiation?of?human?periodontal?ligament?stem?cells?(hPDLSCs)?in vitro and?in vivo. Methods??An?enzymatic?digestion?block?was?used?in vitro?to?culture?hPDLSCs,?which?were?separated?and?purified?by?limited?dilution?cloning.?The?hPDLSCs?were?identified?using?cell-surface?markers?and?cocultured?with?1×10?7 mol·L?1 ICA?solution.?The?proliferation?ability?of?these?cells?was?determined?by?thiazolyl?blue?tetrazolium?bromide?(MTT)?assay.?After?staining?with?alkaline?phosphatase?(ALP),?osteogenesis?was?detected?by?enzyme-linked?immunosorbent?assay.?Osteoblast-related?genes?were?analyzed?by?reverse?transcription-polymerase?chain?reaction.?Alizarin?red?staining?was?performed?to?measure?the?level?of?calcium?deposition.?The?hPDLSCs?were?cocultured?with?1×10?7 mol·L?1 ICA?and?nano-hydroxyapatite?scaffolds?in vivo?before?transplantation?into?subcutaneous?tissues?of?nude?mice.?Osteogenic?abilities?were?histochemically?analyzed?after?30?days?of?induction.?Results??The?hPDLSCs?were?affected?by?1×10?7 mol·L?1 ICA,?and?MTT?assay?showed?that?the?proliferation?of?the?groups?treated?with?ICA?in vitro?was?better?than?that?of?the?control?groups?on?the?second?day.?The?ALP?activity?of?the?treated?hPDLSCs?was?significantly?enhanced?after?cell?culture?for?3,?5,?and?7?days.?The?gene?expression?of?osteoblastic?markers?was?also?significantly?enhanced?after?7?days.?The?deposition?of?mineralization?after?incubation?with?1×10?7 mol·L?1?ICA?increased?compared?with?the?control?after?cell?culture?for?14,?21,?and?28?days.?Furthermore,?the?bone?expression?of?the?treatment?groups?in vivo?was?significantly?enhanced?com-pared?with?that?of?the?control?groups.?Conclusion??Treatment?with?1×10?7 mol·L?1 ICA?can?significantly?promote?proliferation?and?differentiation?of?hPDLSCs?in vitro?and?in vivo.?ICA?can?effectively?function?as?a?bioactive?growth?factor?in?periodontal?tissue?engineering?to?replace?traditional?growth?factors.
