Correlation between salivary developmental endothelial locus-1, interleukin 17 expression level and severity of periodontal disease in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To investigate the correlation of the salivary expression levels of developmental endothelial locus-1 (Del-1) and interleukin 17 (IL-17) with the severity of periodontal disease in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

Methods

Fifty-seven patients with T2DM and fifty-seven patients with T2DM complicated with chronic periodontitis (CP) admitted to our hospital from March 2020 to March 2021 were enrolled as the research objects and assigned to the T2DM group and T2DM+CP group respectively. Additionally, 57 healthy controls from the hospital physical examination center during the same period were included as the healthy controls. General information of all the enrolled participants was collected to measure the levels of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), salivary inflammatory factors, and salivary Del-1 and IL-17, as well as homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR).

Results

HbA1c in the T2DM group and T2DM+CP group was significantly higher than that in the healthy control group. Gingival index (GI), plaque index (PI), and probing depth (PD) were significantly higher in case groups than those in the health group. Compared with the healthy control group, salivary IL-17 expression level increased remarkably in the T2DM+CP group and T2DM group, with a higher level observed in the T2DM+CP group (P<0.05). The T2DM+CP group presented significantly higher levels of salivary tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) than the other two groups (P<0.05). Compared with the healthy control group, HOMA-IR and salivary Del-1 declined evidently in the T2DM+CP group and T2DM group, and the lowest values were observed in the T2DM+CP group (P<0.05). Salivary Del-1 and HbA1c were independent risk factors for CP in T2DM patients (P<0.05).

Conclusion

Salivary Del-1 was downregulated and IL-17 was up-regulated in T2DM patients complicated with CP, indicating their correlation with the occurrence of CP in T2DM patients.

Project description:BackgroundThe oral cavity is a complex environment which harbours the second largest and most diverse microflora after the gastrointestinal tract. The bacteriome in the oral cavity plays a pivotal role in promoting the health and well-being of human beings. Gingivitis, an inflammation of the gingival tissue, arises due to plaque accumulation on the teeth, often leads to periodontitis. Progression of periodontitis resulting in clinical attachment loss, bone loss and eventually the tooth loss is poorly understood. The present study explores the transitions in microbioata, oxidative stress and polyamine levels during the disease evolution which can contribute to developing effective therapeutic approaches.MethodsSaliva samples were collected from seventy-two individuals after procuring informed consent who were either healthy, gingivitis or stage-specific periodontitis patients. Periodontitis stage was confirmed by clinical and radiographic analysis. Microbiota analysis was carried out by 16S rRNA sequencing on the Nanopore PromethIONsystem platform of Oxford Nanopore technologies. Polyamine levels were quantified with fluorescence spectrophotometer. Ornithine decarboxylase quantification was evaluated by ELISA method. Antioxidant levels of the salivary samples were measured by DPPH, SOD, and catalase assays. Autophagy was measured by acid phosphatase assay.ResultThe salivary microbiota exhibited significant changes in their abundance and diversity between healthy individuals and those with conditions such as gingivitis, and chronic periodontitis. A significant increase in polyamines and ornithine decarboxylase was found in gingivitis and various stages of periodontitis. Elevated oxidative stress observed in gingivitis and periodontitis could have resulted in cell death.ConclusionThe current study shows the role of salivary microbiota and polyamines in gingivitis and different periodontitis stages. The progressive elevation of Streptococcus levels from gingivitis to periodontitis, coupled with polyamine concentrations, may serve as a promising identification marker for assessing the severity of periodontal disease. Insight into the oral bacterial flora and associated physiological changes provide a foundation for targeted therapeutic interventions in gingivitis and periodontitis diseases emphasising the importance of personalised oral health management strategies.

Project description:The purposes of this study were to examine the compositional changes in the salivary microbiota according to the severity of periodontal disease and to verify whether the distribution of specific bacterial species in saliva can distinguish the severity of disease. Saliva samples were collected from 8 periodontally healthy controls, 16 patients with gingivitis, 19 patients with moderate periodontitis, and 29 patients with severe periodontitis. The V3 and V4 regions of the 16S rRNA gene in the samples were sequenced, and the levels of 9 bacterial species showing significant differences among the groups by sequencing analysis were identified using quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR). The predictive performance of each bacterial species in distinguishing the severity of disease was evaluated using a receiver operating characteristic curve. Twenty-nine species, including Porphyromonas gingivalis, increased as the severity of disease increased, whereas 6 species, including Rothia denticola, decreased. The relative abundances of P. gingivalis, Tannerella forsythia, Filifactor alocis, and Prevotella intermedia determined by qPCR were significantly different among the groups. The three bacterial species P. gingivalis, T. forsythia, and F. alocis were positively correlated with the sum of the full-mouth probing depth and were moderately accurate at distinguishing the severity of periodontal disease. In conclusion, the salivary microbiota showed gradual compositional changes according to the severity of periodontitis, and the levels of P. gingivalis, T. forsythia, and F. alocis in mouth rinse saliva had the ability to distinguish the severity of periodontal disease. IMPORTANCE Periodontal disease is one of the most widespread medical conditions and the leading cause of tooth loss, imposing high economic costs and an increasing burden worldwide as life expectancy increases. Changes in the subgingival bacterial community during the progression of periodontal disease can affect the entire oral ecosystem, and bacteria in saliva can reflect the degree of bacterial imbalance in the oral cavity. This study explored whether the specific bacterial species in saliva can distinguish the severity of periodontal disease by analyzing the salivary microbiota and suggested P. gingivalis, T. forsythia, and F. alocis as biomarkers for distinguishing the severity of periodontal disease in saliva.

Project description:BackgroundIncreased frequency of CCR9+ CD4+ T cells in peripheral blood is linked to several gastrointestinal inflammatory diseases; however, its relationship with necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is not understood. We investigated whether the frequencies of CCR9+ CD4+ T cells and related subsets were increased in peripheral blood of both patients and mice with NEC.MethodsCCR9+ CD4+ T cells and related subsets were evaluated by flow cytometry in peripheral blood collected from both patients and mice with NEC and controls. The suppressive function of CCR9+ regulatory T (Treg) cells in NEC was assessed via in vitro suppression assay. An in vitro T cell polarization assay was performed to investigate the role of proinflammatory cytokines in Treg cell polarization. In vivo Treg cell polarization analysis was performed using NEC mice treated with anti-interleukin-6 (IL-6) receptor antibody.FindingsA higher proportion of CCR9+ CD4+ T cells occurred in peripheral blood of both patients and mice with NEC than in controls. Elevated CCR9+ CD4+ T cells were primarily CCR9+ IL-17-producing Treg cells, possessing features of conventional Treg cells, but their suppressive activity was seriously impaired and negatively correlated with the severity of intestinal tissue injury. IL-6 promoted polarization of CCR9+ Treg cells to CCR9+ IL-17-producing Treg cells, and blocking IL-6 signalling inhibited this conversion in vitro and ameliorated experimental NEC in vivo.InterpretationCollectively, these data suggested that CCR9+ IL-17-producing Treg cells may be a biomarker of severity and highlight the possibility that antibodies targeting IL-6R could ameliorate NEC by modulating lymphocyte balance.
