Abstract
Objective

This study aimed to investigate the anti-inflammatory effect of betamethasone on LPS-stimulated human dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) and its associated mechanism. The osteo-/odontogenic differentiation and osteoclast effect of betamethasone on DPSCs and stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED) were evaluated.

Design

The proliferative effect of betamethasone on DPSCs was analyzed using a cholecystokinin octapeptide assay. The anti-inflammatory effect of betamethasone was investigated using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and ELISA. The anti-inflammatory mechanism was explored using qPCR, Western blot, and immunofluorescence staining. Glucocorticoid receptor antagonist mifepristone was applied to verify the anti-inflammatory mechanism of betamethasone. The osteo-/odontogenic differentiation and osteoclast effect of betamethasone on DPSCs and SHED were detected by qPCR.

Results

1 μg L-1 betamethasone was found to have the strongest effect on DPSCs proliferation. The expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and mediators, as well as prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) were significantly decreased following treatment with betamethasone in LPS- stimulated DPSCs. They were also decreased in response to an NF-κB inhibitor, Bay 11-7082. Betamethasone and Bay 11-7082 significantly inhibited the expression of p-p65 and promoted the nuclear exclusion of p65. The anti-inflammatory effect of betamethasone was clearly reversed by adding mifepristone. Gene expression associated with osteo-/odontogenic differentiation was significantly up-regulated in betamethasone and osteogenic media (OM) treated groups. The ratio of the receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand (RANKL) and osteoprotegerin (OPG) at the mRNA level was suppressed in DPSCs and elevated in SHED.

Conclusions

Betamethasone has an anti-inflammatory effect on LPS- stimulated DPSCs through a blockade of NF-κB activation and exhibits an osteo-/odonto-inductive effect on DPSCs and SHED. Although betamethasone displays an osteoclast effect on SHED.
