Abstract

The osteogenic differentiation of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) is important for periodontal tissue repair and regeneration. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are key regulators of diverse biological processes. However, their roles in PDLSC osteogenic differentiation are still largely unknown. This study explored the effect of LINC00707 and its mechanism on the osteogenic differentiation of human PDLSCs. Results showed an increase in LINC00707 and forkhead box O1 (FOXO1) but a decrease in miR-490-3p during PDLSC osteogenic differentiation. LINC00707 and FOXO1 promoted osteogenic differentiation as evidenced by the formation of calcium nodules and the increase in osteogenic markers such as alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin (OCN), and runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2). LINC00707 and FOXO1 knockdown exhibited opposite effects. Dual-luciferase reporter assay and qRT-PCR showed that LINC00707 can specially bind to miR-490-3p, which reversed the effect of LINC00707 on PDLSCs. MiR-490-3p inhibitor relieved the inhibiting effect of sh-LINC00707 on osteogenic differentiation. Further investigation revealed that LINC00707 can promote osteogenic differentiation by regulating FOXO1 expression through miR-490-3p sponging. Thus, the LINC00707/miR-490-3p/FOXO1 axis modulated PDLSC osteogenic differentiation and might be a promising therapeutic target for periodontal diseases.
