The mechanisms of wound healing and vascularization are crucial steps of the complex morphological process of tissue reconstruction. In addition to epithelial cells, fibroblasts play an important role in this process. They are characterized by dynamic proliferation and they form the stroma for epithelial cells. In this study, we have used primary cultures of oral fibroblasts, obtained from porcine buccal mucosa. Cells were maintained long-term in in vitro conditions, in order to investigate the expression profile of the molecular markers involved in wound healing and vascularization. Based on the Affymetrix assays, we have observed three ontological groups of markers as wound healing group, response to wounding group and vascularization group, represented by different genes characterized by their expression profile during long-term primary in vitro culture (IVC) of porcine oral fibroblasts. Following the analysis of gene expression in three previously identified groups of genes, we have identified that transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGFB1), ITGB3, PDPN, and ETS1 are involved in all three processes, suggesting that these genes could be recognized as markers of repair specific for oral fibroblasts within the porcine mucosal tissue.

Fibronectin (Fn) is involved in the migration of epithelial cells in re-epithelialization of wounds. Epithelial cell-derived Fn is particularly potent as a chemotactic factor for bronchial epithelial cells (BECs) in vitro. Thus modulation of airway epithelial cell Fn may be a key aspect of airway repair. Insulin is both an important growth factor and known chemotactic factor for cultured BECs. We postulated that insulin may modulate Fn production of cultured BECs. We examined this hypothesis utilizing bovine BECs in culture with serum-free media with and without insulin. BECs grown in media without insulin released more Fn into culture supernatants and contained more Fn in cell layers than cells grown with insulin. Labeling of cells with [35S]methionine demonstrated an increase in new protein production and Fn mRNA expression was increased. Increased Fn in BEC cultures without insulin was associated with an increase in active transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) release as measured by a standard bioassay. Increased BEC Fn in cultures without insulin was partially inhibited by exposure of cultures to TGF-beta antibody. Thus insulin appears to modulate BEC Fn production in vitro in part through a TGF-beta-dependent mechanism. Insulin may be involved in airway repair mechanisms through modulation of epithelial cell Fn production.

Since their discovery 30 years ago, angiogenic growth factors have been demonstrated to stimulate neovascularization in vitro and in animal studies. Over the last decade, knowledge gained in the field of angiogenic growth factors has grown immensely. These angiogenic growth factors exist in four major families: fibroblast growth factor (FGF), transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), and epidermal growth factor (EGF). Each has the ability to induce soft tissue vascularization in microgram quantities. In animal models, FGF, TGF-β, PDGF, and EGF have been shown to enhance soft tissue wound healing. In human clinical trials, EGF and a mixture of PDGFs have been demonstrated to accelerate epidermal regeneration in cutaneous wounds. These factors have considerable therapeutic potential in the areas of soft tissue wound healing and otolaryngology. This article reviews important aspects of angiogenic growth factors and discusses their future potential in soft tissue wound healing.

Abstract The mucous membrane is composed of two layers. The layer of stratified squamous epithelium and the underlying layer of the connective tissue. The epithelium is composed of keratinocytes that are in different stages of differentiation, depending on their localization. In our research, after isolation of primary in vitro cultured buccal pouch mucosal cells, we observed keratinocytes in various stages of differentiation and fibroblasts. These cells, depending on the ionic dynamics, may be subject to different morphological and biochemical transformations. Understanding the expression profile of the normal oral mucosal tissue is important for further research into the effects of biomaterials on the mucosal cells, their growth, proliferation, and differentiation. The porcine buccal pouch mucosal cells were used in this study. The oral mucosa was separated surgically and isolated enzymatically. The cells were in vitro cultured for 30 days, and after each step of in vitro culture (7 days, 15 days, 30 days), samples were collected for isolation of total RNA. The gene expression profile was measured using Affymetrix microarray assays. In results, we observed genes belonging to two ontology groups: cation homeostasis and cation transport. These genes were up-regulated after 7 days of in vitro culture as compared to down-regulation after 15 and 30 days of in vitro culture. These results suggested that dynamic growth, proliferation and cell adhesion are more intense in the first 7 days of in vitro culture. We also observed, for the first time, the expression of ATP13A3 in porcine oral mucosal cells.

A highly reproducible and technically straightforward technique for the isolation and long-term culture of normal human endometrial epithelial cells is described. The essential conditions for long-term culture are that the cells be seeded onto a gelatin matrix and that ‘endothelial cell growth supplement’ be present in the culture medium. Normal endometrial epithelial cells express cytokeratins and oestrogen receptors. They may be passaged five to six times without change in properties. Growth of normal endometrial epithelial cells was stimulated by 17-beta-oestradiol and epidermal growth factor. Expression of the mRNA coding for seven polypeptide angiogenic factors, by normal endometrial epithelial, stromal and three endometrial carcinoma lines, was examined. The endometrial epithelial and stromal cells express mRNA for the polypeptide angiogenic factors, basic fibroblast growth factor, vascular endothelial cell growth factor, transforming growth factor-beta 1 and pleiotrophin, as well as the cytokine midkine. Expression of the mRNA for both vascular endothelial growth factor and midkine by normal endometrial epithelial cells showed a 2-fold increase on treatment with a physiological dose of 17-beta-oestradiol (10(−10) M) while, in contrast, the mRNA of transforming growth factor-beta 1 decreased 4-fold on treatment with 17-beta-oestradiol (10(−10) M) and was abolished by exposure to progesterone (5 × 10(−9) M). Expression of the mRNAs for angiogenic polypeptides by the endometrial carcinoma lines was more restricted.

12-Tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA)-induced differentiation of U937 promonocytes leads to a 30-fold increase in transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-beta 1) gene expression, and this effect results from a stabilized mRNA. Similar up-regulation was detected in TPA-treated K562 erythroblasts but was absent from cell lines that do not differentiate in response to TPA. Related studies in vitro showed that postnuclear extracts of U937 promonocytes contain a ribonuclease system that degrades TGF-beta 1 mRNA selectively and that this system is completely blocked by prior treatment of the cells with TPA. These data identify a new mechanism for regulating TGF-beta 1 mRNA levels and allow us to establish the overall basis for control of TGF-beta 1 gene expression by activation of protein kinase C. Our results also provide a new basis for understanding the long-term up-regulation of TGF-beta 1 gene expression that can accompany hematopoietic cell differentiation.
