Abstract
OBJECTIVE Fusobacterium nucleatum (F. nucleatum) is one of the most common bacteria involved in the initiation and progression of periodontal diseases. Pharmacological inhibitor of prolyl hydroxylases (PHDs), dimethyloxallyl glycine (DMOG), has been reported to exert anti-inflammatory effects. The aim of this investigation was to evaluate the role of DMOG in inflammatory cytokine production of human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs) stimulated with F. nucleatum. MATERIAL AND METHODS HGFs were pretreated with 10, 50, and 100 μM DMOG for 24 h before infected with F. nucleatum (MOI = 100). Cell morphology and survival after infection with F. nucleatum were determined by crystal violet staining assay. The mRNA levels of interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, and IL-1β were evaluated by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The production of IL-6, IL-8, TNF-α, and IL-1β was assessed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). RESULTS F. nucleatum did not affect the morphology and survival of HGFs by the concentrations of MOI (multiplicity of infection) = 10, 50, and 100. The mRNA levels of IL-6, IL-8, TNF-α, and IL-1β were significantly enhanced with the stimulation of F. nucleatum, and the maximal effect reached at 6 h. The secretion of IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α was significantly upregulated by the infection of F. nucleatum while the production of IL-1β was nearly unchanged. Above all, DMOG suppressed F. nucleatum-stimulated IL-6, IL-8, TNF-α, and IL-1β expressions. CONCLUSIONS These data indicate that prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor DMOG partly downregulates inflammatory cytokine expression in F. nucleatum-infected HGFs. CLINICAL RELEVANCE DMOG may provide a novel strategy for the therapy of periodontitis.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to investigate the mechanisms linking high glucose to gingival wound healing. Bilateral wounds were created in the palatal gingiva adjacent to maxillary molars of control rats and rats with streptozotocin-induced diabetes. After evaluating postsurgical wound closure by digital imaging, the maxillae including wounds were resected for histological examinations. mRNA expressions of angiogenesis, inflammation, and oxidative stress markers in the surgical sites were quantified by real-time polymerase chain reaction. Primary fibroblast culture from the gingiva of both rats was performed in high glucose and normal medium. In vitro wound healing and cell proliferation assays were performed. Oxidative stress marker mRNA expressions and reactive oxygen species production were measured. Insulin resistance was evaluated via PI3K/Akt and MAPK/Erk signaling following insulin stimulation using Western blotting. To clarify oxidative stress involvement in high glucose culture and cells of diabetic rats, cells underwent N-acetyl-L-cysteine treatment; subsequent Akt activity was measured. Wound healing in diabetic rats was significantly delayed compared with that in control rats. Nox1, Nox2, Nox4, p-47, and tumor necrosis factor-α mRNA levels were significantly higher at baseline in diabetic rats than in control rats. In vitro study showed that cell proliferation and migration significantly decreased in diabetic and high glucose culture groups compared with control groups. Nox1, Nox2, Nox4, and p47 expressions and reactive oxygen species production were significantly higher in diabetic and high glucose culture groups than in control groups. Akt phosphorylation decreased in the high glucose groups compared with the control groups. Erk1/2 phosphorylation increased in the high glucose groups, with or without insulin treatment, compared with the control groups. Impaired Akt phosphorylation partially normalized after antioxidant N-acetyl-L-cysteine treatment. Thus, delayed gingival wound healing in diabetic rats occurred because of impaired fibroblast proliferation and migration. Fibroblast dysfunction may occur owing to high glucose-induced insulin resistance via oxidative stress.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of N-benzyl-4-bromobenzamide (NBBA) on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced IL-6 and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) production in human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs). MATERIAL AND METHODS The benzamide compound was synthesized. The condition for IL-6 production of HGFs after induction with LPS was optimized. The HGFs were incubated with NBBA (10 µg/ml) for 30 min before LPS (1 μg/ml) was added. After 24 h of incubation time, the culture media were harvested and their IL-6 and PGE2 contents were determined using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Prednisolone (PDS) and NS-398 were used as positive controls. Statistical analysis of the IL-6 and PGE2 contents was performed using the ANOVA test followed by the Tukey multiple-comparisons test to compare replicate means. p < 0.001 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS The maximum IL-6 production was achieved when HGFs were exposed to 1 μg/ml of LPS for 24 h, which was inhibited by the IL-6 immunosuppressant PDS. The benzamide compound, NBBA, exhibited a potent anti-IL-6 activity with inhibition of 35.6 ± 0.5%, significantly different from in the LPS-induced HGFs (p < 0.001). In addition, it inhibited 75.6 ± 0.52% PGE2 production. Cell viability was not significantly affected by treatment with NBBA at a concentration <10 µg/ml (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS NBBA exhibited an inhibitory effect on the production of IL-6 and PGE2 in LPS-induced HGFs. It could serve as a compound with inhibiting inflammatory activity in periodontal disease.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is characterized by decreased insulin sensitivity and higher concentrations of free fatty acids (FFAs) in plasma. Among FFAs, saturated fatty acids (SFAs), such as palmitate, have been suggested to promote inflammatory responses. Although many epidemiological studies have shown a link between periodontitis and T2D, little is known about the clinical significance of SFAs in periodontitis. In this study, we showed that gingival fibroblasts have cell-surface expression of CD36, which is also known as FAT/fatty acid translocase. Moreover, CD36 expression was increased in gingival fibroblasts of high-fat diet-induced T2D model mice, compared with gingival fibroblasts of mice fed a normal diet. DNA microarray analysis revealed that palmitate increased mRNA expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines in human gingival fibroblasts (HGF). Consistent with these results, we confirmed that palmitate-induced interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8, and CXCL1 secretion in HGF, using a cytokine array and ELISA. SFAs, but not an unsaturated fatty acid, oleate, induced IL-8 production. Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), which is one of the omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, significantly suppressed palmitate-induced IL-6 and IL-8 production. Treatment of HGF with a CD36 inhibitor also inhibited palmitate-induced pro-inflammatory responses. Finally, we demonstrated that Porphyromonas gingivalis (P.g.) lipopolysaccharide and heat-killed P.g. augmented palmitate-induced chemokine secretion in HGF. These results suggest a potential link between SFAs in plasma and the pathogenesis of periodontitis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Gingival fibroblasts (GFs) are an important regulatory cell type in the progression of periodontitis. This study aimed to compare the expression levels of genes associated with inflammation, extracellular matrix degradation and bone destruction in GFs isolated from healthy and periodontitis subjects in the absence and presence of Porphyromonas gingivalis. DESIGNS Primary GFs from healthy (n=10) and periodontitis subjects (n=10) were stimulated in vitro with viable P. gingivalis ATCC 49417 and 3 clinical isolates of P. gingivalis with type II fimbriae from one healthy subject (KUMC-H1) and two periodontitis patients (KUMC-P1, -P2). The mRNA expression of proinflammatory cytokines (interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8, IL-1B), anti-inflammatory cytokines (IL-4, IL-10), matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-1 and 2, tissue inhibitor matrix metalloproteinase (TIMP)-3 and osteoprotegerin (OPG) were assessed using real-time PCR. The levels of IL-6, IL-1β and TIMP-3 protein were measured by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS The mRNA expression of IL-6, IL-1B and TIMP-3 was higher in the periodontitis group compared with the healthy group, whereas IL-4 expression was higher in the healthy group both in the absence and presence of the P. gingivalis strains. The expression levels of IL-6, IL-1β and TIMP-3 protein were also higher in the periodontitis group in the absence and/or presence of the P. gingivalis strains. There was inter-strain variability among P. gingivalis strains in the ability to induce expression of the proinflammatory cytokines, MMPs and OPG and in the ability to degrade IL-6 protein. CONCLUSION High expression of proinflammatory cytokines and TIMP-3 and low expression of IL-4 can be a signature of GFs associated with periodontitis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Hyperglycemia and advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) have been hypothesized as the etiologic factors of diabetic periodontitis. The aim of this study was to clarify in greater detail the patterns of AGE-mediated periodontal inflammation under various physiological conditions. MATERIAL AND METHODS The deposition of AGEs and expression of the receptor for AGEs (RAGE) were identified by immunohistochemistry in Sprague-Dawley rats with experimentally induced periodontitis or diabetes. Human periodontal ligament cells (PDLCs) and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) were cultured under simulated conditions of hyperglycemia, Porphyromonas gingivalis lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation and matrix glycation. Cell viability and expression of toll-like receptors (TLRs), Rage, an inflammatory signaling initiator (nuclear factor kappa light chain enhancer of activator β cells), an oxidative stressor (heme oxygenase-1) and collagen synthesis (type I and type IV) genes were evaluated. RESULTS The deposition of AGEs and the expression of Rage were evident in the inflamed periodontal tissues in all rats and appeared to be enhanced in rats with diabetes. Matrix glycation augmented cytotoxicity, up-regulated RAGE and TLRs in both PDLCs and MSCs, and significantly activated downstream inflammatory signaling in MSCs. Oxidative stress was significantly increased under matrix glycation in both PDLCs and MSCs and was significantly increased at a high-glucose concentration in MSCs. A consistent decrease in expression of type I and type IV collagens was observed in MSCs, but a delayed reduction was noted in PDLCs. CONCLUSIONS Matrix glycation modulated cell behavior to induce inflammation equivalent to that produced by incubation with P. gingivalis LPS. Periodontal inflammation also led to matrix glycation, thus demonstrating a definite interaction between diabetes and periodontitis.

Abstract
Porphyromonas gingivalis is associated with periodontitis, a chronic inflammatory disease of the tooth-supporting tissues. A major clinical symptom is alveolar bone loss due to excessive resorption by osteoclasts. P. gingivalis may influence osteoclast formation in diverse ways; by interacting directly with osteoclast precursors that likely originate from peripheral blood, or indirectly by activating gingival fibroblasts, cells that can support osteoclast formation. In the present study we investigated these possibilities. Conditioned medium from viable or dead P. gingivalis, or from gingival fibroblasts challenged with viable or dead P. gingivalis were added to human mononuclear osteoclast precursors. After 21 days of culture the number of multinucleated (≥3 nuclei) tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRACP)-positive cells was determined as a measure for osteoclast formation. Conditioned medium from viable P. gingivalis, and from fibroblasts with viable P. gingivalis stimulated osteoclast formation (1.6-fold increase p < 0.05). Conditioned medium from dead bacteria had no effect on osteoclast formation, whereas conditioned medium from fibroblasts with dead bacteria stimulated formation (1.4-fold increase, p < 0.05). Inhibition of P. gingivalis LPS activity by Polymyxin B reduced the stimulatory effect of conditioned medium. Interestingly, when RANKL and M-CSF were added to cultures, conditioned media inhibited osteoclast formation (0.6-0.7-fold decrease, p < 0.05). Our results indicate that P. gingivalis influences osteoclast formation in vitro in different ways. Directly, by bacterial factors, likely LPS, or indirectly, by cytokines produced by gingival fibroblasts in response to P. gingivalis. Depending on the presence of RANKL and M-CSF, the effect of P. gingivalis is either stimulatory or inhibitory.

Abstract
Icariin has been reported to enhance bone healing and treat osteoporosis. In this study, we examined the detail molecular mechanisms of icariin on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced osteolysis. Our hypothesis is that icariin can inhibit osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption by suppressing MAPKs/NF-κB regulated HIF-1α and PGE(2) synthesis. After treatment with icariin, the activity of osteoclasts differentiation maker, tatrate resistances acid phosphatease (TRAP), significantly decreased at the concentration of 10(-8)M. Icariin (10(-8)M) reduced the size of LPS-induced osteoclasts formation, and diminished their TRAP and acid phosphatease (ACP) activity without inhibition of cell viability. Icariin also inhibited LPS-induced bone resorption and interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) expression. The gene expression of osteoprotegerin (OPG) was up-regulated, while receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL) was down-regulated. Icariin also inhibited the synthesis of cyclo-oxygenase type-2 (COX-2) and prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)). In addition, icariin had a dominant repression effect on LPS-induced hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) expression of osteoclasts. On osteoclasts, icariin suppresses LPS-mediated activation of the p38 and JNK; while on the osteoblasts, icariin reduced the LPS-induced activation of ERK1/2 and I-kappa-B-alpha (IκBα), but increased the activation of p38. In conclusion, we demonstrated that icariin has an in vitro inhibitory effects on osteoclasts differentiation that can prevent inflammatory bone loss. Icariin inhibited LPS-induced osteoclastogenesis program by suppressing activation of the p38 and JNK pathway.
