Palmitate induces apoptosis and inhibits osteogenic differentiation of human periodontal ligament stem cells

Objective: The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of palmitate on human periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs).Design: PDLSCs were isolated from the third molars of healthy adult donors, and cultured in normal or osteogenic medium supplemented with palmitate (0, 100, or 250 µM) for 21 days. Cell proliferation was evaluated by measuring the amount of formazan at 6, 24, 48, and 72 h. Apoptosis was detected by ELISA and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling assay at days 3 and 7. Osteogenic differentiation was evaluated by measuring the alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, production of procollagen type I C-peptide and osteocalcin, mineralization, and mRNA expression of Runx2 at days 3, 7, 14, and 21. In addition, mRNA expression of IL-6 and IL-8 was measured at day 3.Results: Palmitate inhibited the proliferation, ALP activity, production of procollagen type I C-peptide and osteocalcin, mineralization, and mRNA expression of Runx2 in the cultured PDLSCs. Palmitate also induced apoptosis and mRNA expression of IL-6 and IL-8 in the PDLSCs.Conclusions: The results of the present study demonstrate that palmitate induces apoptosis and inhibits osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs. These findings may help clarify the relationship between palmitate and periodontal tissue regeneration.
