Objectives Prolyl hydroxylases (PHDs) play essential roles in oxygen-sensing system, whereas the effects of PHDs on inflammation have not been totally uncovered. Our study aimed to investigate the role of PHDs in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation of human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs) and clarify the potential mechanisms. Materials and methods A pan hydroxylase inhibitor, dimethyloxallyl glycine (DMOG), and RNA interference were used to explore the role of PHDs in inflammation. Cytotoxic effect of DMOG was determined by cell-counting kit-8 and flow cytometry respectively. The secretion levels of IL-6 and IL-8 were assessed by ELISA. The mRNA levels of inflammatory cytokines, Toll-like receptor (TLR) 4 and MyD88 were evaluated by quantitative real-time PCR. The activation of NF-kappa B, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and PI3K/AKT pathways were detected by western blot and the nuclear translocation of NF-kappa B p65 was examined by immunofluorescence. Downregulation of PHD1 and PHD2 was performed with siRNA transfection. Results Dimethyloxallyl glycine inhibited LPS-induced inflammatory cytokine, TLR4 and MyD88 expression in gene level and the elevated secretion of IL-6 and IL-8 was also downregulated. Additionally, LPS-induced activation of NF-kappa B, MAPK and AKT pathways was abolished by DMOG treatment. Importantly, LPS-induced inflammatory cytokine expression was merely suppressed by PHD2 knockdown. Conclusions Prolyl hydroxylases acted as a positive regulator in LPS-induced inflammation of HGFs via TLR4/MyD88-mediated NF-kappa B, MAPK and AKT signalling pathways and PHD2 among three isoforms was principally responsible for the effects.
