Research Abstract |
S100 protein increased the IL-8 levels in HGEC. Amounts of IL-8 in HGEC stimulated by S100 protein were 1. 5 times higher than non-stimulated cells for 48 hours. Production of connexin43 in HGEC was induced by 1. g/ ml S100 protein for 6 hours. However, production of connexin43 declined in HGEC stimulated by 10. g/ ml S100 protein for 24 hours. Gap junctional intercellular communication was induced by 1. g/ ml S100 protein for 12 hours, but inhibited by 10. g/ ml S100 protein for 24 hours. Porphynomonas gingivalis might induce IL-8 in HGEC via Receptor of advanced glycation endproducts.
