HMGB1 localization during experimental periodontitis.

ABSTRACT:

Aim

This study sought to investigate the in vitro expression profile of high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) in murine periodontal ligament fibroblasts (mPDL) stimulated with LPS or IL-1β and in vivo during ligature- or LPS-induced periodontitis in rats.

Material and methods

For the in vivo study, 36 rats were divided into experimental and control groups, and biopsies were harvested at 7-30 d following disease induction. Bone loss and inflammation were evaluated. HMGB1 expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry, qPCR, and Western blot.

Results

Significant increases in mPDL HMGB1 mRNA occurred at 4, 8, and 12 h with protein expression elevated by 24 h. HMGB1 mRNA expression in gingival tissues was significantly increased at 15 d in the LPS-PD model and at 7 and 15 d in the ligature model. Immunohistochemical staining revealed a significant increase in the number of HMGB1-positive cells during the experimental periods.

Conclusion

The results show that PDL cells produce HMGB1, which is increased and secreted extracellularly after inflammatory stimuli. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that HMGB1 may be associated with the onset and progression of periodontitis, suggesting that further studies should investigate the potential role of HMGB1 on periodontal tissue destruction.

Project description:High mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is a non-histone DNA-binding protein that is secreted into the extracellular milieu in response to inflammatory stimuli. The secreted HMGB1 mediates various inflammatory diseases, including periodontitis; however, the underlying mechanisms of HMGB1-induced periodontal inflammation are not completely understood. Here, we examined whether anti-HMGB1 neutralizing antibody inhibits periodontal progression and investigated the molecular pathology of HMGB1 in vitro and in vivo. In vitro analysis indicated that HMGB1, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) were secreted in response to tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) stimuli in human gingival epithelial cells (HGECs) and human monocytic leukemia cells (THP-1) treated with phorbol myristate acetate. Increased levels of GM-CSF and IL-1β were observed in the conditioned media from TNF-α-stimulated HGECs and THP-1 in vitro Simultaneous stimulation with TNF-α and anti-HMGB1 antibody significantly decreased TNF-α-induced inflammatory cytokine secretion. Experimental periodontitis was induced in mice using Porphyromonas gingivalis-soaked ligatures. The extracellular translocation was confirmed in gingival epithelia in the periodontitis model mice by immunofluorescence analysis. Systemic administration of anti-HMGB1 neutralizing antibody significantly inhibited translocation of HMGB1. The anti-HMGB1 antibody inhibited periodontal inflammation, expression of IL-1β and C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 1 (CXCL1), migration of neutrophils, and bone resorption, shown by bioluminescence imaging of myeloperoxidase activity, quantitative reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR), and micro-computed tomography analysis. These findings indicate that HMGB1 is secreted in response to inflammatory stimuli caused by periodontal infection, which is crucial for the initiation of periodontitis, and the anti-HMGB1 antibody attenuates the secretion of a series of inflammatory cytokines, consequently suppressing the progression of periodontitis.
