Project description:Single cell analysis of PDL cells in ligature-induced periodontitis: The periodontal ligament (PDL) is a fibrillar connective tissue that lies between the alveolar bone and the tooth and is composed of highly specialized extracellular matrix (ECM) molecules and a heterogeneous population of cells that are responsible for collagen formation, immune response, bone formation, and chewing force sensation. Type VI collagen (COL6), a widely distributed ECM molecule, plays a critical role in the structural integrity and mechanical properties of various tissues including muscle, tendon, bone, cartilage, and skin. However, its role in the PDL remains largely unknown. Our study shows that deficiency of COL6 impairs PDL fibrogenesis and exacerbates tissue destruction in ligature-induced periodontitis (LIP). We found that COL6 deficient mice exhibited increased bone loss and degraded PDL in LIP and that fibroblasts expressing high levels of Col6α2 are pivotal in ECM organization and cell-ECM interactions. Moreover, COL6 deficiency in the PDL led to an increased number of fibroblasts geared towards the inflammatory response. We also observed that cultured COL6 deficient fibroblasts from the PDL exhibited decreased expression of genes related to collagen fiber metabolism and ECM organization, and migration and proliferation. Our findings suggest that COL6 plays a crucial role in the PDL, influencing fibroblast function in fibrogenesis and affecting the immune response in periodontitis. These insights could advance our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying PDL maturation and periodontal disease.

Project description:In this study, an α2(VI) deficient mouse (Col6α2-KO) model was used to examine the role of Type VI collagen in oral tissues. To examine bone properties, µCT was employed, and bone volume and bone mineral density (BMD) was measured in oral tissues. To further investigate its molecular basis, proteome analysis was performed using protein extracted from alveolar bone. In addition, alveolar bone loss progression was evaluated with a periodontitis induced model. µCT analysis showed the Col6α2- KO mice had less volume of alveolar bone, dentin and dental pulp, while the width of periodontal ligament (PDL) was greater than WT. The BMD in alveolar bone and dentin were elevated in Col6α2-KO mice compared with WT. Our proteome analysis showed significant changes in proteins related to ECM organization and elevation of proteins associated with biomineralization in the Col6α2-KO mice. In induced periodontitis, Col6α2-KO mice had greater alveolar bone loss compared to WT. In conclusion, Type VI collagen has role in controlling biomineralization in alveolar bone and that changes in the ECM of alveolar bone could be associated with greater bone loss from periodontitis.

Project description:Neutrophil recruitment and activation are hallmarks of the prevalent inflammatory disease, periodontitis. However, the mechanisms by which neutrophils contribute to in inflammatory bone destruction remain unclear. Herein, we document that neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) have a direct role in mediating inflammatory pathology. In an established animal model of periodontitis, we demonstrate that genetic or pharmacologic inhibition of NETs formation, or removal of NETs by DNase-Ⅰ, alleviates inflammatory bone loss in vivo. Investigating the mechanisms by which NETs drive periodontal inflammation, we find that extracellular histones have a direct role in disease progression. Consistent with findings in animal models, histones bearing classic NET-associated post-translational modifications are correlated with disease severity and are significantly elevated in local lesions and systemic circulation of patients with periodontitis. Our work reveals NETs-associated components as pathogenic mediators, potential biomarkers, and therapeutic targets for periodontitis.

Project description:Periodontitis (PD) as a chronic inflammatory disease instigated by periodontal pathogenic bacteria and mediated by the host immune response, resulting in the destruction of supporting periodontal tissue and tooth loss in adults. Constructing an injectable delivery system that allows for sustained drug release within periodontal pockets to continuously eliminate pathogenic bacteria, reduce periodontal inflammation, and promote periodontal tissue regeneration is an effective strategy for periodontitis treatment. Here, we explore the therapeutic potential and underlying mechanisms of curcumin-loaded Pickering emulsion (PE-CUR) in periodontitis treatment. The Pickering emulsion formulation offers an effective delivery system, enhancing curcumin's bioavailability and therapeutic efficacy. In vitro studies, we demonstrate that the PE-CUR exhibit excellent biocompatibility and anti-inflammatory property by elimination of reactive oxygen species (ROS). In addition, PE-CUR significantly eliminate key periodontal pathogens, including Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). In a rat model of periodontitis, PE-CUR significantly attenuates periodontal tissue inflammation and alveolar bone loss, indicating a protective effect against periodontal tissue destruction. Mechanistically, PE-CUR promotes the expression of anti-inflammatory factors and inhibits the release of pro-inflammatory factors by regulating macrophage polarization from M1 to M2 and modulating the MAPK and PI3K-AKT signaling pathway. Furthermore, PE-CUR decreases the formation of osteoclasts as well as stimulates the activation and differentiation of osteoblasts successively, thereby ameliorating the periodontal inflammation and promoting the alveolar bone regeneration. Overall, our findings elucidate the therapeutic mechanisms of PE-CUR in periodontitis, suggesting its potential as a promising treatment strategy warranting further clinical investigation.

Project description:Background/purpose Periodontal diseases exacerbate hepatic inflammation and diseases like non-alcoholic fatty liver disease via circulating pathogenic factors from periodontal tissue. Long-term pre-symptomatic state eventually leads to the development of such hepatic diseases. However, it is uncertain if periodontitis contributes in the onset of hepatic pre-symptomatic state. Herein, we conducted a hepatic whole transcription analysis of periodontitis-affected mice and healthy mice to understand the early functional changes in the hepatic system in periodontitis-affected mice. Materials and methods Silk ligatures were tied around mice second maxillary molars for 14 days to develop periodontitis. RNA-seq samples were collected from periodontal tissues and liver tissues of mice with periodontitis and healthy mice. Lipidomic analysis of hepatic omega-3 fatty acids in periodontitis-affected and healthy mice was conducted. The anti-inflammatory effects of omega-3 fatty acids and their metabolites were elucidated using hepatocytes HepG2 cells. Results In the liver of mice with periodontitis, genes coding for cytochrome P450 such as Cyp4a12a and Cyp4a12b were identified as significantly down-regulated genes. Lipidomic analyses identified that epoxidation and subsequent hydrolysis of hepatic omega-3 fatty acids were inhibited in periodontitis-affected mice. Eicosapentaenoic acid metabolites, epoxy eicosatetraenoic acid and dihydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid, inhibited inflammatory responses of HepG2 cells. Conclusion These results suggest that, in the liver of periodontitis-affected mice, due to the reduced activity of omega-3 fatty acid epoxidation, pre-symptomatic state with pro-inflammatory status develop. Therefore, early intervention of periodontitis might contribute to the prevention of the onset of hepatic diseases.

Project description:Objective Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a risk factor of periodontitis. This study aimed to investigate whether hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) and their myeloid progeny exacerbate periodontal inflammation in UC. Design Ligature-induced periodontitis (LIP) was established in dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis (DIC) C57BL/6 mice. The bone resorption, intestinal and periodontal inflammation were evaluated by micro-CT and histological analyses. Inflammatory cytokines and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in serum and gut microbiota were assessed by multiplexed flow cytometric assay, ELISA and 16S rRNA sequencing, respectively. Flow cytometry was performed to analyze HSPCs differentiation, and to sort hematopoietic stem cells for transcriptomic analysis. Berberine treatment of DIC was employed to investigate whether dampening of DIC would alleviate periodontitis. Results DIC mice exhibited disrupted intestinal barrier with dysbiotic gut microbiota, corroborating the elevated serum level of LPS and IL-1. Compared to DIC-free/LIP mice, DIC/LIP mice showed aggravated alveolar bone resorption, with enrichment of neutrophils extracellular traps (NETs) in periodontal tissues. DIC promoted myelopoiesis of HSPCs by up-regulating myeloid differentiation pathway. Intragastric administration of berberine dampened DIC and rescued the myeloid skewing of HSPCs, consequently alleviating periodontal destruction. Intriguingly, LIP induction after DIC remission still exhibited aggravated periodontal destruction and myeloid skewing of HSPCs, indicating a UC-trained immunity against periodontal infection. Conclusion Increased gut permeability and microbial dysbiosis in UC elevate the serum level of LPS and IL-1, inducing myeloid skewing of HSPCs with an immune memory. Generation of inflammatory potential myeloid cells causes NETs accumulation and aggravates periodontal destruction in the UC-related periodontitis.

Project description:Collagen VI-related disorders (COL6-RDs) are a group of rare muscular dystrophies caused by pathogenic variants in collagen VI genes. ¬¬Collagen type VI is a heterotrimeric, microfibrillar component of the muscle extracellular matrix (ECM), predominantly secreted by resident fibroadipogenic precursor cells in skeletal muscle. Collagen VI absence or mislocalization in the skeletal muscle ECM underlies the non-cell autonomous dystrophic changes and dysfunction in skeletal muscle in COL6-RDs with an as of yet elusive direct mechanistic link between the ECM and myofiber dysfunction. Here, we derive a novel mouse model of COL6-RD, Col6a2-/- mice, and conduct a comprehensive natural history study in male and female animals aged to 60 weeks of age. Col6a2-/- mice have a normal lifespan but develop muscle weakness based on standardized behavioral tests (grip and hanging wire test), muscle atrophy with histologic hallmarks of muscular dystrophy, and reduced muscle force prodcution on physiologic parameters. We also report a robust dysregulation of TGFβ pathway early in the disease process and thus propose a new mechanism for pathogenesis of the disease that links the ECM regulation of TGFβ with downstream skeletal muscle abnormalities, paving the way for developing therapeutics that target this pathway.

Project description:Gene expressions relate to the pathogenesis of periodontitis and have a crucial role in local tissue destruction and susceptibility to the disease. The aims of the present study were to explore comprehensive gene expressions/transcriptomes in periodontitis-affected gingival tissues, and to identify specific biological processes. The purpose of the present study was 1) to compare comprehensive gene expression/transcriptomes of periodontitis-affected gingival tissues with those of healthy tissues by using microarray and data mining technologies, and 2) to analyze significantly differentially expressed genes which belong to pathological pathways in periodontitis by qRT-PCR. Two distinct gingival samples including healthy and periodontal-affected gingiva were taken from 3 patients with severe chronic periodontitis. Total RNAs from 6 gingival tissue samples were used for microarray and data-mining analyses. Comparisons, gene ontology, and pathway frequency analyses were performed and identified significant biological pathways in periodontitis. Quantitative reverse transcription real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) analyse using 14 chronic periodontitis patients including 3 patients listed above and 14 healthy individuals showed 9 differentially expressed genes in leukocyte migration and cell communication pathways.

Project description:Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease resulting from a dysbiosis of the dental biofilm and a dysregulated host response in susceptible individuals. It is characterized by periodontal attachment destruction, bone resorption, and eventual tooth loss. Salivary biomarkers have been sought to predict and prevent periodontitis. This comparative study analyzed the salivary proteome of 30 individuals with chronic periodontitis (CP) and 10 with periodontal health (PH), and correlated specific proteins with clinical parameters of disease by using mass spectrometry. Stimulated whole saliva was obtained and pooled for 5 healthy controls and 15 CP patients, precipitated with TCA, digested enzymatically with trypsin and analyzed by an LTQ Orbitrap Velos equipped with a nanoelectrospray ion source. A wide range of salivary proteins of various functions was significantly reduced in CP individuals, whereas salivary acidic proline-rich phosphoprotein, submaxillary gland androgen-regulated protein, histatin, fatty acid-binding protein, thioredoxin, and cystatin were predominant in diseased patients and correlated significantly with signs of periodontal attachment loss and inflammation. Specific salivary proteins were associated with PH and CP. These differences in salivary proteome profiles may contribute to the identification of disease indicators or signatures and the improvement of periodontal diagnosis.
