Abstract
BACKGROUND: Outer root sheath cells (ORSCs) play important roles in maintaining hair follicle structure and provide support for the bulge area. The hair growth promoting effects of photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) have been reported, but the mechanisms for this in human ORCs (hORSCs) have rarely been studied. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of various wavelengths of light-emitting diode (LED) irradiation on human ORSCs (hORSCs). METHODS: LED irradiation effects on hORSC proliferation and migration were examined with MTT assay, BrdU incorporation assay and migration assays. hORSCs were irradiated using four LED wavelengths (415, 525, 660, and 830 nm) with different low energy levels. LED irradiation effects on the expression of molecules associated with the Wnt/β-catenin signaling and ERK pathway, hair stem cell markers, and various growth factors and cytokines in hORSCs were examined with real-time PCR and Western blot assay. The effect of the LED-irradiated hORSCs on cell proliferation of human dermal papilla cells (hDPCs) was examined with co-culture and MTT assay. RESULTS: PBMT with LED light variably promoted hORSC proliferation and suppressed cell apoptosis depending on energy level. LED irradiation induced Wnt5a, Axin2, and Lef1 mRNA expression and β-catenin protein expression in hORSCs. Phosphorylation of ERK, c-Jun, and p38 in hORSCs was observed after LED light irradiation, and ERK inhibitor treatment before irradiation reduced ERK and c-Jun phosphorylation. Red light-treated hORSCs showed substantial increase in IL-6, IL-8, TNF-a, IGF-1, TGF-β1, and VEGF mRNA. Light irradiation at 660 and 830 nm projected onto hORSCs accelerated in vitro migration. LED-irradiated hORSCs increased hDPCs proliferation when they were co-cultured. The conditioned medium from LED-irradiated hORSCs was sufficient to stimulate hDPCs proliferation. CONCLUSION: These results demonstrate that LED light irradiation induced hORSC proliferation and migration and inhibited apoptosis in vitro. The growth-promoting effects of LEDs on hORSCs appear to be associated with direct stimulation of the Wnt5a/β-catenin and ERK signaling pathway. Lasers Surg. Med. 49:940-947, 2017.
