Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the involvement and role of receptor-interacting protein 3 (RIP3)-mediated necroptosis in periodontitis. METHODS A periodontitis murine model was established by oral infection with Porphyromonas gingivalis, and activation of necroptosis pathway was identified by immunohistochemistry. Adeno-associated virus was used to knock down Rip3 and the effect of Rip3 knockdown on periodontal inflammation was examined by Micro-CT, qRT-PCR and histological staining. In vitro, P. gingivalis-LPS was used to infect fibroblast cell line L929 and siRNA was used to knock down Rip3. Necroptosis pathway signalling and inflammation in cells were detected by cell viability and death assay, Western Blot, qRT-PCR and immunofluorescence analysis. RESULTS Phosphorylation of RIP3 and mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL) was increased in the periodontal ligament of mice infected with P. gingivalis. RIP3 knockdown reduced osteoclastogenesis and inflammatory cytokines in the periodontal area, and alleviated alveolar bone loss in vivo. In vitro, P. gingivalis-LPS-induced RIP3-mediated necroptosis in L929 cells, and knockdown of RIP3 by siRNA decreased the expression of inflammatory cytokines. CONCLUSION RIP3-mediated necroptosis is activated in periodontitis and blocking necroptosis alleviates disease progression, indicating that RIP3 may be a potential target for periodontitis treatment.

Chopra A, Jayasinghe TN, Eberhard J. Are Inflamed Periodontal Tissues Endogenous Source of Advanced Glycation End-Products (AGEs) in Individuals with and without Diabetes Mellitus? A Systematic Review. Biomolecules 2022; 12:biom12050642. [PMID: 35625570 PMCID: PMC9138899 DOI: 10.3390/biom12050642] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/10/2022] [Revised: 04/14/2022] [Accepted: 04/27/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) are heterogeneous compounds formed when excess sugars condense with the amino groups of nucleic acids and proteins. Increased AGEs are associated with insulin resistance and poor glycemic control. Recently, inflamed periodontal tissues and certain oral bacteria were observed to increase the local and systemic AGE levels in both normoglycemic and hyperglycemic individuals. Although hyperglycemia induced AGE and its effect on the periodontal tissues is known, periodontitis as an endogenous source of AGE formation is not well explored. Hence, this systematic review is aimed to explore, for the first time, whether inflamed periodontal tissues and periodontal pathogens have the capacity to modulate AGE levels in individuals with or without T2DM and how this affects the glycemic load. Six electronic databases were searched using the following keywords: (Periodontitis OR Periodontal disease OR Periodontal Inflammation) AND (Diabetes mellitus OR Hyperglycemia OR Insulin resistance) AND Advanced glycation end products. The results yielded 1140 articles, of which 13 articles were included for the review. The results showed that the mean AGE levels in gingival crevicular fluid was higher in individuals with diabetes mellitus and periodontitis (521.9 pg/mL) compared to healthy individuals with periodontitis (234.84 pg/mL). The serum AGE levels in normoglycemic subjects having periodontitis was higher compared to those without periodontitis (15.91 ng/mL vs. 6.60 ng/mL). Tannerella forsythia, a common gram-negative anaerobe periodontal pathogen in the oral biofilm, was observed to produce methylglyoxal (precursor of AGE) in the gingival tissues. Increased AGE deposition and activate of AGE receptors was noted in the presence of periodontitis in both normoglycemic and hyperglycemic individuals. Hence, it can be concluded that periodontitis can modulate the local and systemic levels of AGE levels even in absence of hyperglycemia. This explains the bidirectional relationship between periodontitis and development of prediabetes, incident diabetes, poor glycemic control, and insulin resistance.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis is a chronic artery disease characterized by plaque formation and vascular inflammation, eventually leading to myocardial infarction and stroke. Innate immunity plays an irreplaceable role in the vascular inflammatory response triggered by chronic infection. Periodontitis is a common chronic disorder that involves oral microbe-related inflammatory bone loss and local destruction of the periodontal ligament and is a risk factor for atherosclerosis. Periodontal pathogens contain numerous pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) such as lipopolysaccharide, CpG DNA, and Peptidoglycan, that initiate the inflammatory response of the innate immunity depending on the recognition of pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs) of host cells. The immune-inflammatory response and destruction of the periodontal tissue will produce a large number of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) such as neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), alarmins (S100 protein), and which can further affect the progression of atherosclerosis. Molecular patterns have recently become the therapeutic targets for inflammatory disease, including blocking the interaction between molecular patterns and PRRs and controlling the related signal transduction pathway. This review summarized the research progress of some representative PAMPs and DAMPs as the molecular pathological mechanism bridging periodontitis and atherosclerosis. We also discussed possible ways to prevent serious cardiovascular events in patients with periodontitis and atherosclerosis by targeting molecular patterns.

Verbascoside Protects Gingival Cells against High Glucose-Induced Oxidative Stress via PKC/HMGB1/RAGE/NFκB Pathway. Antioxidants (Basel) 2021; 10:antiox10091445. [PMID: 34573077 PMCID: PMC8464661 DOI: 10.3390/antiox10091445] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2021] [Revised: 09/07/2021] [Accepted: 09/09/2021] [Indexed: 12/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Impaired wound healing often occurs in patients with diabetes and causes great inconvenience to them. Aside from the presence of prolonged inflammation, the accumulation of oxidative stress is also implicated in the delayed wound healing. In the present study, we tested the effect of verbascoside, a caffeoyl phenylethanoid glycoside, on the improvement of cell viability and wound healing capacity of gingival epithelial cells under high glucose condition. We showed that verbascoside attenuated the high glucose-induced cytotoxicity and impaired healing, which may be associated with the downregulation of oxidative stress. Our results demonstrated that verbascoside increased the activity of the antioxidant enzyme SOD and reduced the oxidative stress indicator, 8-OHdG, as well as apoptosis. Moreover, verbascoside upregulated the PGC1-α and NRF1 expression and promoted mitochondrial biogenesis, which was mediated by suppression of PKC/HMGB1/RAGE/NFκB signaling. Likewise, we showed the inhibitory effect of verbascoside on oxidative stress was via repression of PKC/HMGB1/RAGE/NFκB activation. Also, our data suggested that the PKC-mediated oxidative stress may lead to the elevated production of inflammatory cytokines, IL-6 and IL-1β. Collectively, we demonstrated that verbascoside may be beneficial to ameliorate impaired oral wound healing for diabetic patients.

Abstract
High mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is a non-histone DNA-binding protein of about 30 kDa. It is released from a variety of cells into the extracellular milieu in response to inflammatory stimuli and acts on specific cell-surface receptors, such as receptors for advanced glycation end-products (RAGE), Toll-like receptor (TLR)2, TLR4, with or without forming a complex with other molecules. HMGB1 mediates various mechanisms such as inflammation, cell migration, proliferation, and differentiation. On the other hand, HMGB1 enhances chemotaxis acting through the C-X-C motif chemokine ligand (CXCL)12/C-X-C chemokine receptor (CXCR)4 axis and is involved in regeneration. In the oral cavity, high levels of HMGB1 have been detected in the gingival tissue from periodontitis and peri-implantitis patients, and it has been shown that secreted HMGB1 induces pro-inflammatory cytokine expression, such as interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, which prolong inflammation. In contrast, wound healing after tooth extraction or titanium dental implant osseointegration requires an initial acute inflammation, which is regulated by secreted HMGB1. This indicates that secreted HMGB1 regulates angiogenesis and bone remodeling by osteoclast and osteoblast activation and promotes bone healing in oral tissue repair. Therefore, HMGB1 can prolong inflammation in the periodontal tissue and, conversely, can regenerate or repair damaged tissues in the oral cavity. In this review, we highlight the role of HMGB1 in the oral cavity by comparing its function and regulation with its function in other diseases. We also discuss the necessity for further studies in this field to provide more specific scientific evidence for dentistry.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High-mobility group box1 (HMGB1) is a cytokine that has been demonstrated to have an important role in inducing migration and homing of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) in the process of neovascularization during wound healing, but its specific mechanism remains elusive. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of the HMGB-RAGE axis in EPC migration, as well as the underlying molecular mechanism responsible for these effects. MATERIAL AND METHODS EPCs were isolated from the mice and identified using flow cytometry and fluorescence staining. The effect of HMGB1 on the activity of EPCs was detected using the Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8). Then, the migration of EPCs was detected by scratch wound-healing and cell migration assay. NO levels were analyzed by ELISA. The expression of p-PI3K, p-Akt, and p-eNOS was determined by Western blot analysis. RAGE expression was measured by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blot analysis. F-actin was assessed by fluorescent staining. RESULTS The results showed that HMGB1 induced a concentration-dependent migration of EPCs, and the migration was RAGE-dependent. The migration could be almost completely blocked by PI3K inhibitors and eNOS inhibitor. HMGB1-RAGE upregulated the expression of p-Akt, p-eNOS, and p-ERK. We also demonstrated that the MEK/ERK signaling pathway is not involved in the EPC migration induced by HMGB1-RAGE. CONCLUSIONS These data demonstrate that HMGB1 activates RAGE and induces PI3K/Akt/eNOS signaling transduction pathway activation to promote EPC migration. Therefore, the HMGB1-RAGE axis plays an important role in the EPC migration process and may become a potential target in wound healing.

Abstract
AIMS We investigated the effect of a specific inhibitor of the receptor for advanced glycation (FPS-ZM1) against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced increase in expressions of high mobility group protein B1 (HMGB1) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs). Furthermore, we explored the potential molecular mechanisms and assessed the involvement of the NF-κB pathway in mediating the changes in the expressions of HMGB1 and IL-6 expression in response to LPS and FPS-ZM1. METHODS HGFs were cultured with enzymatic digestion-tissue explants method. The proliferation of LPS-stimulated HGFs pretreated with FPS-ZM1 at 24, 48, and 72 h was determined by cell counting kit 8 assay. The expressions of HMGB1 and IL-6 were measured using quantitative polymerase chain reaction and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Western blot analysis was used to assess the expressions of receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) and NF-κB. RESULTS LPS enhanced the protein expression of RAGE in HGFs. At the same time, LPS stimulated mRNA and protein expressions of HMGB1 and IL-6 in HGFs. However, pretreatment with FPS-ZM1 attenuated these effects. Pretreatment with FPS-ZM1 (250, 500 nM) significantly inhibited the LPS-induced NF-κB activity. CONCLUSION FPS-ZM1 down-regulated the LPS-induced HMGB1 and IL-6 expression in HGFs through blocking NF-κB activation. FPS-ZM1 is a promising therapeutic agent for inflammatory diseases caused by oral bacteria.

Vitamin D attenuates human gingival fibroblast inflammatory cytokine production following advanced glycation end product interaction with receptors for AGE. J Periodontal Res 2018; 54:154-163. [PMID: 30295316 DOI: 10.1111/jre.12613] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/20/2018] [Revised: 07/18/2018] [Accepted: 08/26/2018] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Vitamin D [1,25(OH)2 D3 or 1,25D3] is critical in musculoskeletal health, inflammation, immune response, and glucose metabolism. Patients with vitamin D deficiency may be at higher risk of diabetes and periodontitis. Diabetic patients exhibit exacerbated inflammation and more periodontal destruction. Advanced glycation end products (AGEs), formed during diabetic hyperglycemia, activate inflammatory pathways in periodontitis. Human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs) express receptors for AGEs (RAGEs) and can contribute to inflammation. OBJECTIVES Determine whether glycated human serum albumin (G-HSA) augments HGF IL-6 and IL-8 production, and whether treatment with 1,25D3 attenuates cytokine production following stimulation with G-HSA + IL-1β and/or IL-17. MATERIAL AND METHODS HGFs were incubated ±G-HSA or normal human serum albumin (HSA), ±IL-1β and/or IL-17, ±1,25D3. Cytokines were measured by ELISA. Neutralizing anti-RAGE was used to assess AGE-RAGE interaction. Endotoxin was measured using the ToxinSensor™ System. Data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation and analyzed using a one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Scheffe's F procedure for post hoc comparisons. RESULTS G-HSA or IL-1β, but not HSA, significantly stimulated IL-6 and IL-8 production. G-HSA or HSA when combined with IL-1β or IL-1β + IL-17 synergistically stimulated IL-6 and IL-8. Neutralizing anti-RAGE inhibited IL-6 and IL-8 produced by cells stimulated with IL-1β + G-HSA but not (+HSA). Synergism caused by HSA did not appear to be mediated by endotoxin since its levels in G-HSA and HSA were not sufficient to stimulate fibroblasts. Vitamin D inhibited IL-6 and IL-8 production stimulated by G-HSA or HSA + IL-1β or IL-1β + IL-17. CONCLUSIONS Results suggest that the "perioprotective" effects of vitamin D are related to its ability to regulate inflammatory cytokine production by HGFs following AGE-RAGE interaction.

Abstract
Electronic-cigarettes (e-cigs) represent a significant and increasing proportion of tobacco product consumption, which may pose an oral health concern. Oxidative/carbonyl stress via protein carbonylation is an important factor in causing inflammation and DNA damage. This results in stress-induced premature senescence (a state of irreversible growth arrest which re-enforces chronic inflammation) in gingival epithelium, which may contribute to the pathogenesis of oral diseases. We show that e-cigs with flavorings cause increased oxidative/carbonyl stress and inflammatory cytokine release in human periodontal ligament fibroblasts, Human Gingival Epithelium Progenitors pooled (HGEPp), and epigingival 3D epithelium. We further show increased levels of prostaglandin-E2 and cycloxygenase-2 are associated with upregulation of the receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) by e-cig exposure-mediated carbonyl stress in gingival epithelium/tissue. Further, e-cigs cause increased oxidative/carbonyl and inflammatory responses, and DNA damage along with histone deacetylase 2 (HDAC2) reduction via RAGE-dependent mechanisms in gingival epithelium. A greater response is elicited by flavored e-cigs. Increased oxidative stress, pro-inflammatory and pro-senescence responses (DNA damage and HDAC2 reduction) can result in dysregulated repair due to proinflammatory and pro-senescence responses in periodontal cells. These data highlight the pathologic role of e-cig aerosol and its flavoring to cells and tissues of the oral cavity in compromised oral health.

Abstract
Peri-implant disease is a chronic inflammation of the soft and hard tissues around a dental implant, resulting from bacterial infection. Recent evidence indicates that some pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines released by immunocytes are substantially responsible for the progress and consequence of inflammation. High mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is released into the extracellular matrix and acts as a key pro-inflammatory factor during injury, necrosis and inflammation. A higher concentration of HMGB1 has been found in gingival crevicular fluid from inflammatory gingival tissue than from healthy sites. HMGB1 mRNA and protein are overexpressed in murine periodontal ligament fibroblasts stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and IL-1β. Thus, this study sought to assess HMGB1 expression in peri-implant crevicular fluid (PICF) at each stage of peri-implant disease and to investigate the correlation between HMGB1 and peri-implant disease progress. The results demonstrated that the HMGB1 expression level in PICF is indicative of the progress of peri-implant disease and hence may be a useful diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for peri-implant tissue.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE High-mobility group box-1 (HMGB1), a proinflammatory cytokine, plays a role in inflammatory disorders. Smoking is a well-established risk factor for periodontal disease. The aim of this study was to compare the levels of HMGB1 in the gingival crevicular fluid from periodontally healthy nonsmokers, chronic periodontitis nonsmokers, and chronic periodontitis smokers. Furthermore, the relationship between levels of HMGB1 and periodontal parameters was examined. METHODS Periodontal parameters of 17 nonsmokers with chronic periodontitis, nine smokers with chronic periodontitis, and nine periodontally healthy nonsmokers were examined. Gingival crevicular fluid samples were collected, and the levels of HMGB1 were analyzed using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS The median level of HMGB1 was statistically significantly higher in chronic periodontitis nonsmokers (37.5 ng/mL) than in chronic periodontitis smokers (9.5 ng/mL) and periodontally healthy nonsmokers (3.7 ng/mL). There was no significant difference in the levels of HMGB1 between chronic periodontitis smokers and periodontally healthy nonsmokers. Levels of HMGB1 were positively correlated with plaque index, gingival index, probing depth, and clinical attachment level of nonsmokers. However, no significant correlations were found between levels of HMGB1 and all periodontal parameters examined in chronic periodontitis smokers. CONCLUSION Chronic periodontitis nonsmokers had elevated levels of HMGB1 in gingival crevicular fluid. Moreover, the levels of HMGB1 were correlated with severity of periodontitis. Chronic periodontitis smokers exhibited lower levels of HMGB1 than chronic periodontitis nonsmokers. Further research is needed for understanding the role of HMGB1 in smoking and pathogenesis of periodontitis.

Int J Mol Sci 2016; 17:ijms17111961. [PMID: 27886093 PMCID: PMC5133955 DOI: 10.3390/ijms17111961] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2016] [Revised: 11/05/2016] [Accepted: 11/15/2016] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
High mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is tightly connected to the process of tissue organization upon tissue injury. Here we show that HMGB1 controls epithelium and connective tissue regeneration both in vivo and in vitro during palatal wound healing. Heterozygous HMGB1 (Hmgb1+/-) mice and Wild-type (WT) mice were subjected to palatal injury. Maxillary tissues were stained with Mallory Azan or immunostained with anti-HMGB1, anti-proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), anti-nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) p50 and anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) antibodies. Palatal gingival explants were cultured with recombinant HMGB1 (rHMGB1) co-treated with siRNA targeting receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGEs) for cell migration and PCNA expression analysis. Measurement of the wound area showed differences between Hmgb1+/- and WT mice on Day 3 after wounding. Mallory Azan staining showed densely packed of collagen fibers in WT mice, whereas in Hmgb1+/- mice weave-like pattern of low density collagen bundles were present. At three and seven days post-surgery, PCNA, NF-κB p50 and VEGF positive keratinocytes of WT mice were greater than that of Hmgb1+/- mice. Knockdown of RAGE prevents the effect of rHMGB1-induced cell migration and PCNA expression in gingival cell cultures. The data suggest that HMGB1/RAGE axis has crucial roles in palatal wound healing.

Abstract
High mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1), a nuclear non-histone DNA-binding protein, is secreted extracellularly during inflammation and is a late mediator of inflammatory responses. The pro-inflammatory activity of recombinant HMGB1 proteins is dependent upon the formation of complexes with other mediators, such as lipopolysaccharide (LPS). This study investigated the influence of heparin on LPS+HMGB1-mediated inflammatory responses in cultured macrophages and a murine sepsis model. HMGB1 promoted the phosphorylation of p38 and ERK1/2. HMGB1 enhanced the induction of the pro-inflammatory cytokine, TNF-α, by LPS in macrophages. Heparin blocked the binding of HMGB1 to the surface of macrophages, and suppressed the phosphorylation of p38 and ERK1/2, but not JNK; TNF-α secretion was also decreased. However, heparin alone did not affect LPS-induced production of TNF-α. Heparin reduced lethality in mice exposed to LPS+HMGB1. To conclude, heparin inhibited LPS-induced HMGB1-amplified inflammatory responses by blocking HMGB1 binding to macrophage surfaces. Heparin could be used therapeutically as an effective inhibitor of HMGB1-associated inflammation.

Molecular signaling of the HMGB1/RAGE axis contributes to cholesteatoma pathogenesis. J Mol Med (Berl) 2014; 93:305-14. [PMID: 25385222 PMCID: PMC4333301 DOI: 10.1007/s00109-014-1217-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/21/2014] [Revised: 09/25/2014] [Accepted: 10/01/2014] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
Abstract Cholesteatoma represents progressive expansion of the keratinizing squamous epithelium in the middle ear with subsequent chronic inflammation in subepithelial connective tissues. The hypothesis was tested that receptor for advanced glycation endproduct (RAGE) and its ligand, high-mobility box 1 (HMGB1), are overexpressed in cholesteatoma, and the RAGE/HMGB1 axis might contribute to its pathogenesis. Cholesteatoma samples (n = 36) and 27 normal skin specimens were studied by immunohistochemistry (IHC) for HMGB1 and RAGE expression. Effects of HMGB1 signaling on proliferation, migration, cytokine production, and apoptosis of human immortalized keratinocytes (HaCaTs) and normal keratinocytes were studied by quantitative reverse transcription (qRT)-PCR, IHC, Western blots, and flow cytometry after cell co-incubation with HMGB1. While all studied tissues expressed HMGB1, its expression was higher in cholesteatoma than in normal skin (p < 0.0001). All cases of cholesteatoma also showed elevated RAGE expression levels, and only 7/27 (26 %) of normal skin specimens were weakly positive for RAGE. Proliferation and migration of HaCaT cells incubated with HMGB1 were up-regulated (p < 0.05). HMGB1 also prevented HaCaT cell apoptosis and induced activation of several molecular signaling pathways in keratinocytes. The data suggest that in cholesteatoma, HMGB1 released from stressed or necrotic epithelial cells and binding to RAGE overexpressed in keratinocytes initiates molecular signaling that culminates in pro-inflammatory cytokine release and chronic inflammation. Key message HMGB1 signaling engages multiple activation pathways in RAGE-positive keratinocytes. HMGB1 protects RAGE-positive keratinocytes from drug-induced apoptosis. Keratinocyte proliferation is controlled via RAGE and HMGB1 molecular signaling. Molecular signaling of the HMGB1/RAGE axis contributes to cholesteatoma pathogenesis.

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.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is an inflammation of the sinonasal mucosa and many inflammatory cells and cytokines are involved in its pathogenesis. High-mobility group protein B1 (HMGB1) is a DNA-binding protein that has a proinflammatory function when secreted into extracellular space. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the expression of HMGB1 in paranasal sinus mucosa and to determine the difference of HMGB1 expression between CRS patients and normal controls. METHODS Paranasal sinus mucosa was obtained from 10 patients with CRS and 10 patients without CRS. Semiquantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), real-time PCR and Western blot analysis were performed to detect mRNA and protein. Sections of the mucosa were immunostained for localization of HMGB1 and image analysis was performed. RESULTS RT-PCR and real-time PCR showed that the expression level of HMGB1 mRNA was significantly increased in the tissues of patients with CRS compared with controls. Western blot analysis showed that the expression level of HMGB1 protein was significantly increased in the tissues of CRS. In immunohistochemical staining, the HMGB1 protein was expressed in epithelial cells and inflammatory cells and the expression intensity of HMGB1 protein was stronger in CRS. CONCLUSION HMGB1 is increased in the paranasal sinus mucosa of patients with CRS. These results suggest a possible contribution of HMGB1 in the pathophysiology of CRS.

Abstract
Background High mobility group protein box 1 (HMGB1) is a DNA binding protein located in nucleus. It is released into extracellular fluid where it acts as a novel proinflammatory cytokine which interacts with Toll like receptor 4 (TLR4) to activate nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB). This sequence of events is involved in tumor growth and progression. However, the effects of HMGB1, TLR4 and NF-κB on epidermal tumors remain unclear. Methods Human epidermal tumor specimens were obtained from 96 patients. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect expression of HMGB1, TLR4 and NF-κB p65 in human epidermal tumor and normal skin specimens. Western blot analysis was used to detect the expression of NF-κB p65 in epithelial cell nuclei in human epidermal tumor and normal tissues. Results Immunohistochemistry and western blot analysis indicated a progressive but statistically significant increase in p65 expression in epithelial nuclei in benign seborrheic keratosis (SK), precancerous lesions (PCL), low malignancy basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and high malignancy squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) (P <0.01). The level of extracellular HMGB1 in SK was significantly higher than in normal skin (NS) (P <0.01), and was higher than in SCC but without statistical significance. The level of TLR4 on epithelial membranes of SCC cells was significantly higher than in SK, PCL, BCC and NS (P <0.01). There was a significant positive correlation between p65 expression in the epithelial nuclei and TLR4 expression on the epithelial cell membranes (r = 0.3212, P <0.01). Conclusions These findings indicate that inflammation is intensified in parallel with increasing malignancy. They also indicate that the TLR4 signaling pathway, rather than HMGB1, may be the principal mediator of inflammation in high-grade malignant epidermal tumors. Combined detection of p65 in the epithelial nuclei and TLR4 on the epithelial membranes may assist the accurate diagnosis of malignant epidermal tumors.
