TIFA contributes to periodontitis in diabetic mice via activating the NF‑κB signaling pathway.

ABSTRACT: Diabetic periodontitis (DP) refers to destruction of periodontal tissue and absorption of bone tissue in diabetic patients. Tumor necrosis factor receptor‑associated factor (TRAF)‑interacting protein with forkhead‑associated domain (TIFA) as a crucial regulator of inflammation activates the NF‑κB signaling pathway to regulate cell biological behavior. However, the function and mechanism of TIFA on DP suffer from a lack of research. In the present study, TIFA was upregulated in the periodontal tissue of a DP mouse model. In addition, the expression of TIFA in RAW264.7 cells was induced by high glucose (HG) culture and increased by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from Porphyromonas gingivalis treatment in a time‑dependent manner. Knockdown of TIFA significantly reduced the levels of inflamma
