Project description:Healthy alveolar bone is the cornerstone for oral function and oral treatment. In the aging population, increasingly postmenopausal women requiring dental services experiences alveolar bone loss due to estrogen deficiency. Both local factors (occlusal force lose) and systemic factors (estrogen deficiency) affects their alveolar bone health, but the association remains to be clarified. Here, we identified that occlusal force is critical in maintaining alveolar bone mass and PIEZO1 coordinates mechanical force and estrogen, thus orchestrating alveolar bone homeostasis. Mechanistically, both occlusal force loss and PIEZO1 deletion may impair the osteogenesis of alveolar bone and sequentially regulate catabolic metabolism through Fas ligand (FasL)-induced osteoclastic apoptosis. PIEZO1 may promote the activity of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) and estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1), which cooperatively increase Fasl transcription. This study thus revealed a cooperation between occlusal force and estrogen in maintaining alveolar bone homeostasis through a PIEZO1-STAT3/ESR1-FasL pathway. Our work supports restoration of occlusal force with dental therapies early and suggests that preventing alveolar bone loss is the major priority. PIEZO1 may serve not only as a treatment target for occlusal force loss-induced alveolar bone loss but also as a potential target for metabolic bone loss, especially in older patients.

Project description:In this study, an α2(VI) deficient mouse (Col6α2-KO) model was used to examine the role of Type VI collagen in oral tissues. To examine bone properties, µCT was employed, and bone volume and bone mineral density (BMD) was measured in oral tissues. To further investigate its molecular basis, proteome analysis was performed using protein extracted from alveolar bone. In addition, alveolar bone loss progression was evaluated with a periodontitis induced model. µCT analysis showed the Col6α2- KO mice had less volume of alveolar bone, dentin and dental pulp, while the width of periodontal ligament (PDL) was greater than WT. The BMD in alveolar bone and dentin were elevated in Col6α2-KO mice compared with WT. Our proteome analysis showed significant changes in proteins related to ECM organization and elevation of proteins associated with biomineralization in the Col6α2-KO mice. In induced periodontitis, Col6α2-KO mice had greater alveolar bone loss compared to WT. In conclusion, Type VI collagen has role in controlling biomineralization in alveolar bone and that changes in the ECM of alveolar bone could be associated with greater bone loss from periodontitis.

Project description:Background: Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease and macrophages play a pivotal role in the progression of periodontitis. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have emerged as potential therapeutic agents for the treatment of periodontitis due to their immunomodulatory properties and capacity for tissue regeneration. Compared to conventionally derived MSCs, induced pluripotent stem cell-derived MSCs (iMSCs) offer distinct advantages as promising candidates for MSC-based therapies, owing to their non-invasive acquisition methods and virtually unlimited availability. This study aims to investigate the effects and mechanisms of iMSCs in modulating macrophage polarization and alleviating periodontitis-related alveolar bone loss. Methods: iMSCs were generated from iPSCs and characterized for differentiation potential. The effects of iMSCs on macrophage polarization were evaluated using THP-1-derived macrophages under inflammatory conditions (LPS and IFN-γ stimulation). Co-culture assays, cytokine analysis, reactive oxygen species (ROS) detection, transcriptomic analysis, flow cytometry, reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), and western blot analysis were performed to elucidate the underlying mechanisms. The therapeutic potential of iMSCs was assessed in a ligature-induced periodontitis mouse model using micro-CT, histological analysis, and immunofluorescence staining. Results: iMSCs inhibit M1 macrophage polarization through the suppression of the NF-κB signaling pathway. Additionally, iMSCs reduce the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IL-17) and reactive oxygen species (ROS), while enhancing the secretion of anti-inflammatory cytokines (IL-10) and growth factors (VEGF), thereby improving the inflammatory microenvironment. Under inflammatory conditions, iMSCs preserve the osteogenic potential of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) and alleviate alveolar bone loss in mice with periodontitis. In vivo, iMSCs reduce the number of M1 macrophages and inhibit the activation of NF-κB in periodontal tissues, supporting their anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects. Conclusion: iMSCs demonstrate significant therapeutic potential in periodontitis by modulating macrophage polarization, reducing oxidative stress, and mitigating alveolar bone loss associated with the disease. These findings provide new insights into the mechanisms of iMSCs and their application as cell-based therapies for periodontal diseases.

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 and type Ⅱ diabetes mellitus (T2D) have emerged as prevalent global chronic diseases, with a bidirectional relationship existing between them. Individuals with periodontitis and T2D are susceptible to tooth loss, primarily attributed to alveolar bone resorption resulting from excessive osteoclasts (OC) differentiation. Although low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) is an established treatment method for bone-related conditions, its mechanism of action on OC remains unclear. The aim of this research is to examine the effects and mechanism of on OC within a diabetic inflammatory environment. In summary, our data explored how LIPUS affects OC in the inflammatory environment of diabetes.

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.
