Research Abstract |
Positive interleukin-11 (IL-11) staining was observed in the periodontal ligament (PDL) of rat maxillae and in cultures of the human primary PDL cells (HPDLCs). In HPDLCs exposed to stretch, gene and protein expression of IL-11 were up-regulated concomitant with an increase in angiotensin II (Ang II) and via AT2, Ang II receptor. Recombinant human IL-11 (rhIL-11) increased mRNA expression of the cementoblast-specific marker, CP-23, and the osteoblastic markers and promoted proliferation in human PDL progenitor cells (cell line 1-17). In addition, rhIL-11 also increased the degree of mineralized nodule formation in cell line 1-17 cultures treated with CaCl2. Mechanical loading appears to control proliferation and osteo/cementoblastic differentiation of human PDL stem/progenitor cells through IL-11 regulation of Ang II and AT2.
