Exosomes from Human Periodontal Ligament Stem Cells Promote Differentiation of Osteoblast-like Cells and Bone Healing in Rat Calvarial Bone

Deep caries and severe periodontitis cause bone resorption in periodontal tissue, and severe bone resorption leads to tooth loss. Periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) are important for the healing of defective periodontal tissue. It is increasingly understood that healing of periodontal tissue i...

description Deep caries and severe periodontitis cause bone resorption in periodontal tissue, and severe bone resorption leads to tooth loss. Periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) are important for the healing of defective periodontal tissue. It is increasingly understood that healing of periodontal tissue is mediated through the secretion of trophic factors, particularly exosomes. This study investigated the effects of exosomes from human PDLSCs (HPDLSCs-Exo) on human osteoblast-like cells in vitro and on the healing of rat calvarial bone defects in vivo. HPDLSCs-Exo were isolated and characterized by their particle shape, size (133 ± 6.4 nm), and expression of surface markers (CD9, CD63, and CD81). In vitro results showed that HPDLSCs-Exo promoted the migration, mineralization, and expression of bone-related genes such as alkaline phosphatase (<i>ALP</i>), bone morphogenetic protein 2 (<i>BMP2</i>), osteocalcin (<i>OCN</i>), and osteopontin (<i>OPN</i>) in human osteoblast-like cells. Furthermore, in vivo results showed that more newly formed bone was observed in the HPDLSCs-Exo-treated group than in the non-treated group at the defect sites in rats. These results indicated that HPDLSCs-Exo could promote osteogenesis in vitro and in vivo, and this suggests that HPDLSCs-Exo may be an attractive treatment tool for bone healing in defective periodontal tissue.
