Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Human whole saliva contains two types of extracellular vesicles. One type highly expresses dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4) and the other type rarely expresses them. We designate former as DPP IV-exosome (DPP4exo), and later as deficient DPP IV-exosome (dDPP4exo). DPP4exo contained lipopolysaccharide (LPS) abundantly, and dDPP4exo contained it slightly. Although large amount of LPS interacted weakly with DPP4exo or existed separately forming micelle, part of LPS bind DPP4exo tightly. DPP4exo alone did not activate murine macrophage, however, DPP4exo with interferon-gamma produce high level of nitric oxide (NO) from murine macrophage. dDPP4exo did not cause NO production, even when interferon-gamma was added. DPP4exo is presumed to induce NO production from macrophage, when inflammation caused by bacterial infection, and associated with increased levels of interferon-gamma in oral cavity.
