Chronological Gene Expression of Human Gingival Fibroblasts with Low Reactive Level Laser (LLL) Irradiation.
Though previously studies have reported that Low reactive Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) promotes wound healing, molecular level evidence was uncleared. The purpose of this study is to examine the temporal molecular processes of human immortalized gingival fibroblasts (HGF) by LLLT by the comprehensive analysis of gene expression. HGF was seeded, cultured for 24 h, and then irradiated with a Nd: YAG laser at 0.5 W for 30 s. After that, gene differential expression analysis and functional analysis were performed with DNA microarray at 1, 3, 6 and 12 h after the irradiation. The number of genes with up- and downregulated differentially expression genes (DEGs) compared to the nonirradiated group was large at 6 and 12 h after the irradiation. From the functional analysis results of DEGs, Biological Process (BP) based Gene Ontology (GO), BP 'the defense response' is considered to be an important process with DAVID. Additionally, the results of PPI analysis of DEGs involved in the defense response with STRING, we found that the upregulated DEGs such as CXCL8 and NFKB1, and the downregulated DEGs such as NFKBIA and STAT1 were correlated with multiple genes. We estimate that these genes are key genes on the defense response after LLLT.
