ABSTRACT: Backgroud
Hypoadiponectinemia is the important cause of insulin resistance. Recent studies have shown that periodontitis is associated with hypoadiponectinemia. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of periodontitis-induced endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) in visceral adipocytes on hypoadiponectinemia.Methods
Rat periodontitis models were established by local ligation with silk around the bilateral maxillary second molars. Porphyromonas gingivalis-lipopolysaccharid (P.g-LPS) was also used to stimulate the visceral adipocytes in vitro. The protein expression levels of glucose regulated protein 78 (GRP78), inositol-requiring protein 1α (IRE1α), protein kinase RNA-like ER kinase (PERK), activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6) and adiponectin were detected.
