Angiotensin II stimulates expression of transcription factors c-Jun and c-Fos in cyclosporine induced human gingival fibroblasts

The present study demonstrates that the expression of c-Jun and c-Fos are elevated in gingival fibro- blast cells treated with angiotensin II and cyclosporine. The healthy human gingival tissues were collected and gingival fibroblasts were isolated and cultured. We used RT-PCR and Western blot analy...

description The present study demonstrates that the expression of c-Jun and c-Fos are elevated in gingival fibro- blast cells treated with angiotensin II and cyclosporine. The healthy human gingival tissues were collected and gingival fibroblasts were isolated and cultured. We used RT-PCR and Western blot analysis to identify the expression of c-Jun and c-Fos in cyclosporine and angiotensin II treated human gingival fibroblast cells. We found that angiotensin II in combination with cyclosporine induces c-Jun and c-Fos expressions significantly; however, the angiotensin II antagonist losartan inhibits the expression of c-Jun and c-Fos (p < 0.01). The data suggest that angiotensin II in combination with cyclosporine modulates the expression of c-Jun and c-Fos in human gingival fibroblast cells.
