RESUMEN
Adiponectin secretion-promoting compounds have therapeutic potentials in human metabolic diseases. Diallyl biphenyl-type neolignan compounds, magnolol, honokiol, and 4-O-methylhonokiol, from a Magnolia officinalis extract were screened as adiponectin-secretion promoting compounds in the adipogenic differentiation model of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBM-MSCs). In a target identification study, magnolol, honokiol, and 4-O-methylhonokiol were elucidated as PPARα and PPARγ dual modulators. Diallyl biphenyl-type neolignans affected the transcription of lipid metabolism-associated genes in a different way compared to those of specific PPAR ligands. The diallyl biphenyl-type neolignan structure provides a novel pharmacophore of PPARα/γ dual modulators, which may have unique therapeutic potentials in diverse metabolic diseases.
RESUMEN
Objective To study the effect of amelogenin (AML)on the migration,adhesion and proliferation of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs).Methods STRO-1 +PDLSCs were selected by Flow cytometer.The transwell system was used to detect the effect of AML on migration of PDLSCs.Cells attachment assay was used to detect the effect of AML on adhesion of PDLSCs.MTT was used to detect the effect of AML on the proliferation of PDLSCs.Results The results of transwell showed that AML could induce the migration of PDLSCs with positive correlation.Cells attachment assay showed that the adhesion of PDLSCs was effected by AML as well,and the effect was in-creased with the extension of incubation time.Results of MTT showed that AML could promote the proliferation of PDLSCs in a dose depend-ent manner.Conclusion AML could increase the proliferation,adhesion and migration potential of PDLSCs.
