pubmed-article:15470061pubmed:abstractTextEpithelial tissues provide both a physical barrier and an antimicrobial barrier. Antimicrobial peptides of the human beta-defensin (hBD) family are part of the innate immune responses that play a role in mucosal defense. hBDs are made in epithelia including oral epithelium where the bacterial load is particularly great. hBD-2 and hBD-3 are up-regulated in response to bacterial stimuli. Previous studies show that hBD-2 expression in human gingival epithelial cells (GEC) is stimulated by both nonpathogenic and pathogenic bacteria, including Porphyromonas gingivalis, a Gram-negative pathogen associated with periodontitis. Present evidence suggests that hBD-2 expression in GEC uses several signaling pathways, including an NF-kappaB-mediated pathway but without apparent LPS-TLR4 signaling. Protease-activated receptors (PAR) are G-protein-coupled receptors that mediate cellular responses to extracellular proteinases. P. gingivalis secretes multiple proteases that contribute to its virulence mechanisms. To determine whether PAR signaling is used in hBD-2 induction, GEC were stimulated with wild-type P. gingivalis or mutants lacking one or more proteases. hBD-2 mRNA expression was reduced in GEC stimulated with single protease mutants (11-67% compared with wild type), strongly reduced in double mutants (0.1-16%), and restored to wild-type levels (93%) in mutant with restored protease activity. Stimulation by wild type was partially blocked by inhibitors of phospholipase C, a main signaling pathway for PARs. Expression of hBD-3 was unaffected. Peptide agonist of PAR-2, but not PAR-1 activator, also induced hBD-2 in GEC. Thus, P. gingivalis proteases are directly involved in regulation of hBD-2 in cultured GEC, and this induction partially uses the PAR-2 receptor and signaling pathway.lld:pubmed
