Title: Effect of hydroxamic acid-based matrix metalloproteinase inhibitors on human gingival cells and Porphyromonas gingivalis. Author: Yoshioka M, Yokoyama N, Masuda K, Honna T, Hinode D, Nakamura R, Rouabhia M, Mayrand D, Grenier D. Journal: J Periodontol; 2003 Aug; 74(8):1219-24. PubMed ID: 14514237. Abstract: BACKGROUND: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are considered to play key roles in tissue destruction during periodontitis. In this study, we evaluated the cytotoxicity of hydroxamic acid-based MMP inhibitors (ONO-4817, ONO-MI1-514, and ONO-MI1-570), and their inhibitory effects on MMP-2 and -9 activities and growth of Porphyromonas gingivalis. METHODS: Human gingival fibroblasts (HGF) and human gingival epithelial cells (HGE) were incubated with test inhibitors prior to investigating cell viability, cell proliferation, and mRNA expression for MMP-2 and -9. Gelatin zymography and a colorimetric MMP assay were performed to study the inhibitory effects on MMP-2 and -9 activities derived from HGF and HGE, respectively. The effect of MMP inhibitors on keratinocyte migration and P. gingivalis growth was also tested. RESULTS: Cell viability was not affected by any of the inhibitors at a final concentration of 50 microM, nor was cell proliferation at 20 microM. All inhibitors clearly inhibited MMP-2 produced by HGF and MMP-9 produced by HGE in a dose-dependent manner. No change was found in mRNA expression of MMPs by gingival cells treated with the inhibitors. ONO-4817 and ONO-MI1-514 inhibited keratinocyte migration. ONO-4817 showed a slightly inhibitory effect on the growth of P. gingivalis. CONCLUSION: Data obtained in this study support the potential use of the three MMP inhibitors for the prevention and treatment of periodontal disease.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
