This study found that Linc01133 participates in the progression of periodontitis by regulating the expression of miR-30c and BGLAP and promoting the osteogenic differentiation of hPDLSCs.
Periodontitis is a chronic inflammation caused by the deposition of dental plaque on the tooth surface. Human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) have the potential of osteogenic differentiation. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are collectively involved in periodontitis. This study was designed to explore the roles of Linc01133 in osteogenic differentiation of hPDLSCs. hPDLSCs obtained from the periodontal ligament (PDL) of patients with periodontitis were used to collect Linc01133, microRNA-30c (miR-30c), and bone gamma-carboxyglutamate protein (BGLAP) expression data, and their expression changes were traced during osteogenic differentiation of hPDLSCs. Quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction as well as western blotting were used to analyze the levels of RNAs and proteins. Dual-luciferase reporter and RNA pull-down assays demonstrated the relationship between Linc01133, miR-30c, and BGLAP. Furthermore, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining and alizarin red staining were applied to evaluate the degree of osteogenic differentiation. Linc01133 was downregulated in the PDL of patients with periodontitis. Upregulated Linc01133 promoted osteogenic differentiation of hPDLSCs. Linc01133 could inhibit miR-30c expression by sponging miR-30c. miR-30c suppressed osteogenic differentiation. Additionally, miR-30c targeted BGLAP. Knockdown of BGLAP abrogated the effects of decreased miR-30c on osteogenic differentiation of hPDLSCs. Linc01133 acted as a ceRNA to regulate osteogenic differentiation of hPDLSCs via the miR-30c/BGLAP axis. Therefore, Linc01133 may participate in the progress of periodontitis.
