Chronic inflammation disrupts dental pulp regeneration by disintegrating the progenitors recruitment process for repair. Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSC) share the common features with dental pulp stem cells (DPSC). The aim of the study was to investigate the migration of BM-MSC towards DPSC, in response to inflammatory chemoattractants. Additionally, our studies also delineated the signaling mechanisms from BMMSC in mediating the proliferation and differentiation of DPSC, in vitro. Human DPSC and BM-MSC between passages 2 and 4 were used and were grown in odontogenic differentiation medium. Mineralization was determined by Alizarin Red staining analysis. Migration was assessed using crystal violet staining in cells grown in Boyden chamber transwell inserts. Mineralization potential of DPSC was evaluated using alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity assay. Real time PCR analysis was performed to assess the gene expression profile of Cxcl 3, 5, 6, 10, 11, 12, 14, 16, SDF-α, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and fibroblast growth factor (FGF). IFN-γ treatment significantly abrogated the differentiation potential of DPSC, as shown using alizarin red and alkaline phosphatase activity analysis. An increase in the migration of BM-MSC was documented when co-cultured with IFN-γ-treated DPSC. RNA expression studies showed an increased in the levels of Cxcl6 and Cxcl12 in BMMSC when co-cultured with IFN-γ-treated DPSC. Additionally, an upregulation of proangiogenic factors, VEGF and FGF were observed in DPSC exposed to IFN-γ. Our findings indicate that inflamed IFN-γ-treated DPSC release factors (presumably Cxcl6 and 12) that contribute to the homing of MSC. This model might provide a potential research tool for studying MSC-DPSC cross-talk, and for future studies involving recruitment and sustainability of progenitor stem cells sustaining inflammatory cascade to treat pulp inflammation.
