ELISA detected TNF content at conditioned medium. Tumor necrosis factor--neutralizing antibodies also were used.ResultsIt was possible to show that TNF provokes attenuation at Y-phosphorylation of both FAK (at Y-397) and Src (at Y-416) proteins (P<0.05), suggesting a decrease in their activities. The very similar profile was observed when osteoblasts were incubated with conditioned medium from lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated macrophages, it being significantly different than control (FAK and Src, P<0.05). Nevertheless, in order to validate these findings, we decided to pre-incubate osteoblasts with anti-TNF neutralizing antibody (2gml(-1)) prior exposing to conditioned medium. Importantly, our results revealed that there was a diminution on those conditioned medium effects when the same biological parameters were evaluated (P<0.05). Moreover, we also showed that TNF impairs osteoblast adhesion, suggesting an interesting role on osteoblast performance.ConclusionsAltogether, these results suggest that LPS-stimulated macrophage mediators attenuate both FAK and Src activations in osteoblast, suggesting a novel role for TNF on osteoblast performance.780-786engcell signalingfocal adhesion kinaseinflammationLipopolysaccharidemacrophagesosteoblastsperiodontal diseaseSrctumor necrosis factorTNF alpha contributes for attenuating both Y(397)FAK and Y(416)Src phosphorylations in osteoblastsArtigo10.1111/odi.12202WOS:000344395800009Acesso restrito
