Project description:The effect of oral microbiota on the intestinal microbiota has garnered growing attention as a mechanism linking periodontal diseases to systemic diseases. However, the salivary microbiota is diverse and comprises numerous bacteria with a largely similar composition in healthy individuals and periodontitis patients. Thus, the systemic effects of small differences in the oral microbiota are unclear. In this study, we explored how health-associated and periodontitis-associated salivary microbiota differently colonized the intestine and their subsequent systemic effects by analyzing the hepatic gene expression and serum metabolomic profiles. The salivary microbiota was collected from a healthy individual and a periodontitis patient and gavaged into C57BL/6NJcl[GF] mice. Samples were collected five weeks after administration. Gut microbial communities were analyzed by 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequencing. Hepatic gene expression profiles were analyzed using a DNA microarray and quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Serum metabolites were analyzed by capillary electrophoresis time-of-flight mass spectrometry. The gut microbial composition at the genus level was significantly different between periodontitis-associated microbiota-administered (PAO) and health-associated oral microbiota-administered (HAO) mice. The hepatic gene expression profile demonstrated a distinct pattern between the two groups, with higher expression of Neat1, Mt1, Mt2, and Spindlin1, which are involved in lipid and glucose metabolism. Disease-associated metabolites such as 2-hydroxyisobutyric acid and hydroxybenzoic acid were elevated in PAO mice. These metabolites were significantly correlated with Bifidobacterium, Atomobium, Campylobacter, and Haemophilus, which are characteristic taxa in PAO mice. Conversely, health-associated oral microbiota were associated with higher levels of beneficial serum metabolites in HAO mice. The multi-omics approach used in this study revealed that periodontitis-associated oral microbiota is associated with the induction of disease phenotype when they colonized the gut of germ-free mice.
Project description:The composition of the salivary microbiota has been reported to differentiate between patients with periodontitis, dental caries and orally healthy individuals. Thus, the purpose of the present investigation was to compare metaproteomic profiles of saliva in oral health and disease. Stimulated saliva samples were collected from 10 patients with periodontitis, 10 patients with dental caries and 10 orally healthy individuals. Samples were analyzed by means of shotgun proteomics. 4161 different proteins were recorded out of which 1946 and 2090 were of bacterial and human origin respectively. The human proteomic profile displayed significant overexpression of the complement system and inflammatory mediators in periodontitis and dental caries. Bacterial proteomic profiles and functional annotation were very similar in health and disease. Data revealed multiple potential salivary proteomic biomarkers of oral disease. In addition, comparable bacterial functional profiles were observed in periodontitis, dental caries and oral health, which suggest that the salivary microbiota predominantly thrives in a planktonic state expressing no characteristic disease-associated metabolic activity. Future large-scale longitudinal studies are warranted to reveal the full potential of proteomic analysis of saliva as a biomarker of oral health and disease.

Project description:We report the application of high throughput Illumina sequencing for profiling of small RNAs in saliva of patients who were diagnosed with chronic periodontitis as compared to healthy controls. To date, there is no published literature on salivary microRNA profiling done using the high throughput next-generation sequencing analysis in patients diagnosed with chronic periodontitis. Also, this is the first study of its kind done in an Indian population. The objectives of the study were to profile microRNAs expressed in saliva of patients diagnosed with chronic periodontitis, to identify differentially expressed microRNAs between chronic periodontitis and healthy patients and to identify putative salivary microRNAs which can serve as biomarkers for periodontal disease.
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.
Project description:Salivary exsomal miRNAs may play important role in the pathogenesis of chronic inflammatory disease, such as periodontitis. There are many studies which suggested the connection between periodontitis and systemic disease, however, the role of specific miRNA as a intersection of periontitis and diabetes are not elucidated. We suggested miR-25-3p as possible common mediator in the pathogenesis of periodontitis and diabetes.

Project description:The 16s rRNA of periodontitis salivary microbiota-derived gut microbiota
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.
