Figure Lengend Snippet: Assessment of interleukin-10 (IL-10) secretion from macrophages and in vitro osteogenic responses upon Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG-derived extracellular vesicle (LEV) treatment. (A) Histochemical staining for alkaline phosphatase (ALP; osteoblast marker) and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP; osteoclast marker) on paraffin sections of mouse maxillae from the periodontitis model. (B) A schematic diagram illustrating the in vitro co-culture systems (RAW264.7/MC3T3-E1 and THP-1/periodontal ligament stem cells [PDLSCs]) used to evaluate the paracrine pro-osteogenic effect of LEVs via macrophages. (C) ALP staining of MC3T3-E1 cells cultured in conditioned media (CM) derived from RAW264.7 macrophages treated with different conditions (NC, lipopolysaccharide [LPS], LEV, and LPS + LEV). (D) Alizarin Red S (ARS) staining of MC3T3-E1 cells cultured in CM derived from RAW264.7 macrophages treated with different conditions (NC, LPS, LEV, and LPS + LEV) to evaluate mineralized nodule formation. (E) Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) analysis to detect the gene expression levels of osteogenic markers ( Runx2 , Osx , Bsp , and Ocn ) in MC3T3-E1 cells cultured in CM derived from RAW264.7 macrophages treated with different conditions (NC, LPS, LEV, LPS + LEV, siCPT1A, and αIL10). (F) Western blot analysis to detect the protein expression levels of osteogenic markers in MC3T3-E1 cells cultured in CM derived from RAW264.7 macrophages treated with different conditions (NC, LPS, LEV, LPS + LEV, siCPT1A, and αIL10). (G) ALP staining of PDLSCs cultured in CM derived from THP-1 macrophages treated with different conditions (NC, LPS, LEV, and LPS + LEV). (H) ARS staining of PDLSCs cultured in CM derived from THP-1 macrophages treated with different conditions (NC, LPS, LEV, and LPS + LEV) to evaluate mineralized nodule formation. (I) qPCR analysis to detect the gene expression levels of osteogenic markers ( RUNX2 , OSX , BSP , and OCN ) in PDLSCs cultured in CM derived from THP-1 macrophages treated with different conditions (NC, LPS, LEV, and LPS + LEV). (J) Western blot analysis to detect the protein expression levels of osteogenic markers in PDLSCs cultured in CM derived from THP-1 macrophages treated with different conditions (NC, LPS, LEV, and LPS + LEV). * P < 0.05 and *** P < 0.001 in the indicated groups.
