Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Hypoxic responses have been demonstrated to play important roles in disease progression. The role of hypoxic responses in periodontal tissue is becoming clearer recently. In this study, we revealed that PLAP-1 which is highly expressed extracellular matrix protein in periodontal ligament can be upregulated by HIF-1 in hypoxia. On the other hand, PLAP-1 expression can be suppressed by inflammatory cytokines. Furthermore, hypoxia-induced PLAP-1 might regulate the hypoxic response in periodontal ligament cells. These results gave us a new insight about the role of PLAP-1 in periodontal tissue homeostasis.
