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:The immune-stromal cell interactions play a key role in health and diseases. In periodontitis, the most prevalent infectious disease in humans, immune cells accumulate in the oral mucosa and promote bone destruction by inducing receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL) expression in osteogenic cells such as osteoblasts and periodontal ligament cells. However, the detailed mechanism underlying immune-bone cell interactions in periodontitis is not fully understood. Here, we performed single-cell RNA-sequencing analysis on mouse periodontal lesions and showed that neutrophil-osteogenic cell crosstalk is involved in periodontitis-induced bone loss. The periodontal lesions displayed marked infiltration of neutrophils, and in silico analyses suggested that the neutrophils interacted with osteogenic cells through cytokine production. Among the cytokines expressed in the periodontal neutrophils, oncostatin M (OSM) potently induced RANKL expression in the primary osteoblasts, and deletion of the OSM receptor in osteogenic cells significantly ameliorated periodontitis-induced bone loss. Epigenomic data analyses identified the OSM-regulated RANKL enhancer region in osteogenic cells, and mice lacking this enhancer showed decreased periodontal bone loss while maintaining physiological bone metabolism. These findings shed light on the role of neutrophils in bone regulation during bacterial infection, highlighting the novel mechanism underlying osteoimmune crosstalk.

Project description:Treatment of periodontitis in people with diabetes remains challenging. Diabetes-enhanced oxidative stress is a primary cause of aggravation of periodontitis. The present study aimed to investigate the therapeutic potential of thioredoxin-1 (TRX1), an essential endogenous antioxidant protein, in the management of periodontitis with diabetes, as well as its role in modulating osteogenic differentiation. Our findings indicated that the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was elevated, while the expression of TRX1 was significantly reduced in the periodontal tissues of periodontitis mice with diabetes. Furthermore, knockdown of TRX1 in periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) resulted in the inhibition of osteogenic differentiation through disrupting Wnt/β-catenin signal pathway. However, this inhibition was restored upon administration of recombinant human TRX1 (rhTRX1). Importantly, rhTRX1 treatment decreased ROS generation, activated Wnt/β-catenin signal pathway and considerably promoted the alveolar bone repair of periodontitis mice with diabetes. These findings highlighted the crucial protective role of TRX1 in periodontitis with diabetes and suggested that it may serve as a potential therapeutic target for refractory periodontitis associated with oxidative stress.

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:Periodontitis induces myeloid lineage skewing of the bone marrow progenitor cells. In this study, we performed single cell RNA-sequencing in LSK (Lin—Sca-1+cKit+ ) cells to determine whether the periodontitis-induced myeloid lineage bias persists after the resolution of periodontal inflammation.

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.
