Abstract: | Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is a biological mediator for connective tissue cells and plays a critical role in a wide variety of physiological and pathological processes. We here investigated the effect of PDGF on arachidonic acid release and prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) synthesis in human gingival fibroblasts (HGF). PDGF induced arachidonic acid release in a time- and dose-dependent manner, and simultaneously induced a transient increase in intracellular Ca(2+) concentration (Ca(2+)](i)), but less provoked PGE(2) release and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) mRNA expression. When Ca(2+)](i) was increased by Ca(2+)-mobilizing reagents, arachidonic acid release was increased. The PDGF-induced arachidonic acid release and increase in Ca(2+)](i) were prevented by a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. On the other hand, in the HGF pre-stimulated with interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta), PDGF clearly increased PGE(2) release. The PDGF-induced PGE(2) release was inhibited by a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. In the HGF pretreated with IL-1beta, arachidonic acid strongly enhanced PGE(2) release and COX-2 mRNA expression. These results suggest that PDGF stimulates arachidonic acid release by the increase in Ca(2+)](i) via tyrosine kinase activation, and which contributes to PGE(2) production via COX-2 expression in HGF primed with IL-1beta. |
