Significant type I and type III collagen production from human periodontal ligament fibroblasts in 3D peptide scaffolds without extra growth factors. [PDF]
We here report the development of two peptide scaffolds designed for periodontal ligament fibroblasts. The scaffolds consist of one of the pure self-assembling peptide scaffolds RADA16 through direct coupling to short biologically active motifs.

ILC1s and ILC3s Exhibit Inflammatory Phenotype in Periodontal Ligament of Periodontitis Patients
Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are emerging as important players in inflammatory diseases. The oral mucosal barrier harbors all ILC subsets, but how these cells regulate the immune responses in periodontal ligament tissue during periodontitis remains ...

Roles of extracellular adenosine triphosphate on the functions of periodontal ligament cells
Objective Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is an essential nucleotide that is normally present in both intracellular and extracellular compartments. Extracellular ATP (eATP) has a pivotal role in both physiological and pathological processes of periodontal ...

Activity of 25-hydroxylase in human gingival fibroblasts and periodontal ligament cells. [PDF]
We previously demonstrated that 25-hydroxyvitamin D(3) concentrations in gingival crevicular fluid are 300 times higher than those in the plasma of patients with aggressive periodontitis. Here we explored whether 25-hydroxyvitamin D(3) can be synthesized

Fibrillin-1 regulates periostin expression during maintenance of periodontal homeostasis
Background/purpose: Human periodontal ligament consists of elastic system fibers, mainly fibrillin-1 (FBN1). Periostin (POSTN) maintains periodontal homeostasis.

Characterization of the autocrine/paracrine function of vitamin D in human gingival fibroblasts and periodontal ligament cells. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: We previously demonstrated that 25-hydroxyvitamin D(3), the precursor of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3), is abundant around periodontal soft tissues.
