Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to explore the effect of periodontitis on Th-cell subsets in local and systemic environments. METHODS A total of 32 male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into periodontitis and control groups. Silk ligatures were applied to the mandibular first (M1) molars in the periodontitis group. Inflammation and alveolar bone loss around the M1 molars were analyzed by histological staining and microcomputed tomography. The mRNA expression of interferon-γ (IFN-γ), interleukin 4 (IL-4), IL-17, and IL-10 in the gingiva was measured by qRT-PCR. The proportions of Th1, Th2, Th17, and Treg cells in the submandibular lymph nodes, peripheral blood, and jaw bone marrow were tested using flow cytometry. RESULTS More inflammatory cells and alveolar bone resorption were found in the periodontitis group, with upregulated mRNA expression of IFN-γ, IL-17, and IL-10. The proportion of Th1 and Th17 cells was significantly elevated in submandibular lymph nodes, and the proportion of Th1, Th2, and Th17 cells was significantly elevated in peripheral blood, while the proportion of Th1, Th17, and Treg cells was significantly elevated in jaw bone marrow in the periodontitis group. CONCLUSION This study suggests that periodontitis affects the differentiation of Th-cell subsets in both local and systemic environments, resulting in an increased proportion of proinflammatory cells.

Abstract
Resolvin D1 (RvD1), which is biosynthesized from essential long-chain fatty acids, is involved in anti-inflammatory activity and modulation of T cell response. Memory CD8+ T cells are important for controlling tumor growth and viral infections. Exacerbated inflammation has been described as impairing memory CD8+ T cell differentiation. This study aimed to verify the effects of RvD1 on memory CD8+ T cells in vitro and in vivo in a respiratory virus infection model. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were treated at different time points with RvD1 and stimulated with anti-CD3/anti-CD28 antibodies. Pre-treatment with RvD1 increases the expansion of memory CD8+ T cells. The IL-12 level, a cytokine described to control memory CD8+ T cells, was reduced with RvD1 pre-treatment. When the mTOR axis was inhibited, the IL-12 levels were restored. In a respiratory virus infection model, Balb/c mice were treated with RvD1 before infection or after 7 days after infection. RvD1 treatment after infection increased the frequency of memory CD8+ T cells in the lung expressing II4, II10, and Ifng. During reinfection, RvD1-treated and RSV-infected mice present a high viral load in the lung and lower antibody response in the serum. Our results show that RvD1 modulates the expansion and phenotype of memory CD8+ T cells but contributed to a non-protective response after RSV reinfection.

Comparative Metabolomics Reveals the Microenvironment of Common T-Helper Cells and Differential Immune Cells Linked to Unique Periapical Lesions. Front Immunol 2021; 12:707267. [PMID: 34539639 PMCID: PMC8446658 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2021.707267] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2021] [Accepted: 08/12/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Periapical abscesses, radicular cysts, and periapical granulomas are the most frequently identified pathological lesions in the alveolar bone. While little is known about the initiation and progression of these conditions, the metabolic environment and the related immunological behaviors were examined for the first time to model the development of each pathological condition. Metabolites were extracted from each lesion and profiled using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry in comparison with healthy pulp tissue. The metabolites were clustered and linked to their related immune cell fractions. Clusters I and J in the periapical abscess upregulated the expression of MMP-9, IL-8, CYP4F3, and VEGF, while clusters L and M were related to lipophagy and apoptosis in radicular cyst, and cluster P in periapical granuloma, which contains L-(+)-lactic acid and ethylene glycol, was related to granuloma formation. Oleic acid, 17-octadecynoic acid, 1-nonadecene, and L-(+)-lactic acid were significantly the highest unique metabolites in healthy pulp tissue, periapical abscess, radicular cyst, and periapical granuloma, respectively. The correlated enriched metabolic pathways were identified, and the related active genes were predicted. Glutamatergic synapse (16–20),-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids, lipophagy, and retinoid X receptor coupled with vitamin D receptor were the most significantly enriched pathways in healthy control, abscess, cyst, and granuloma, respectively. Compared with the healthy control, significant upregulation in the gene expression of CYP4F3, VEGF, IL-8, TLR2 (P < 0.0001), and MMP-9 (P < 0.001) was found in the abscesses. While IL-12A was significantly upregulated in cysts (P < 0.01), IL-17A represents the highest significantly upregulated gene in granulomas (P < 0.0001). From the predicted active genes, CIBERSORT suggested the presence of natural killer cells, dendritic cells, pro-inflammatory M1 macrophages, and anti-inflammatory M2 macrophages in different proportions. In addition, the single nucleotide polymorphisms related to IL-10, IL-12A, and IL-17D genes were shown to be associated with periapical lesions and other oral lesions. Collectively, the unique metabolism and related immune response shape up an environment that initiates and maintains the existence and progression of these oral lesions, suggesting an important role in diagnosis and effective targeted therapy.

Exploring the Biomaterial-Induced Secretome: Physical Bone Substitute Characteristics Influence the Cytokine Expression of Macrophages. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22094442. [PMID: 33923149 PMCID: PMC8123010 DOI: 10.3390/ijms22094442] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2021] [Revised: 04/16/2021] [Accepted: 04/21/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
In addition to their chemical composition various physical properties of synthetic bone substitute materials have been shown to influence their regenerative potential and to influence the expression of cytokines produced by monocytes, the key cell-type responsible for tissue reaction to biomaterials in vivo. In the present study both the regenerative potential and the inflammatory response to five bone substitute materials all based on β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP), but which differed in their physical characteristics (i.e., granule size, granule shape and porosity) were analyzed for their effects on monocyte cytokine expression. To determine the effects of the physical characteristics of the different materials, the proliferation of primary human osteoblasts growing on the materials was analyzed. To determine the immunogenic effects of the different materials on human peripheral blood monocytes, cells cultured on the materials were evaluated for the expression of 14 pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines, i.e., IL-6, IL-10, IL-1β, VEGF, RANTES, IL-12p40, I-CAM, IL-4, V-CAM, TNF-α, GM-CSF, MIP-1α, Il-8 and MCP-1 using a Bio-Plex® Multiplex System. The granular shape of bone substitutes showed a significant influence on the osteoblast proliferation. Moreover, smaller pore sizes, round granular shape and larger granule size increased the expression of GM-CSF, RANTES, IL-10 and IL-12 by monocytes, while polygonal shape and the larger pore sizes increased the expression of V-CAM. The physical characteristics of a bone biomaterial can influence the proliferation rate of osteoblasts and has an influence on the cytokine gene expression of monocytes in vitro. These results indicate that the physical structure of a biomaterial has a significant effect of how cells interact with the material. Thus, specific characteristics of a material may strongly affect the regenerative potential in vivo.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bovine bone matrix is a natural material that has been used in the treatment of bone lesions. In this study, bovine bone matrix Nukbone® (NKB) was investigated due its osteoconductive and osteoinductive properties. This biomaterial induces CBFA-1 activation and osteogenic differentiation, although the cytokines involved in these processes is still unknown. OBJECTIVE The aim of this work was to determine the influence of NKB on the pro-osteoblastic and anti-osteoblastic cytokines secretion from human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). METHODS The hMSCs were cultured onto NKB and cytokines IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12, IFN-γ and TNF-α were analized at 0-14 days by immunoassay. In addition, hemocompatibility of NKB and characterization of hMSCs were evaluated. RESULTS NKB induces an increase on pro-osteoblastic cytokine secretion IL-4 and a decrease on anti-osteoblastic cytokine IL-6 secretion, at days 7 and 14 of cell culture. Interestingly, there was no statistical difference between secretion profiles of others cytokines analized. CONCLUSIONS The up-regulation of IL-4 and down-regulation of IL-6, and the secretion profiles of other cytokines examined in this work, are findings that will contribute to the understanding of the role of NKB, and similar biomaterials, in bone homeostasis and in the osteoblastic differentiation of hMSCs.

Abstract
Suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS) proteins are significant regulators of cellular immune responses. Therefore, the role of SOCS in bone-inflammatory disorders, including arthritis and periodontitis, has been investigated in experimental and clinical conditions. Recent evidence shows that SOCS proteins are expressed in major bone-related cells, including osteoblasts, osteoclasts, chondrocytes and synoviocytes, although their direct role in these cells is not fully described. These signaling molecules, especially SOCS1, 2 and 3, were shown to play critical roles in the control of bone resorption associated to inflammation. This review focuses on the involvement of SOCS proteins in inflammatory bone remodeling, including their direct and indirect role in the control of osteoclast hyperactivation, during arthritis and periodontitis. The description of the roles of SOCS proteins in inflammatory bone diseases highlights the pathways involved in the pathophysiology of these conditions and, thus, may contribute to the development and improvement of potential therapeutic interventions.

Enterococcus faecalis Induces Differentiation of Immune-Aberrant Dendritic Cells from Murine Bone Marrow-Derived Stem Cells. Infect Immun 2020; 88:IAI.00338-20.

Abstract
Enterococcus faecalis, long implicated in serious systemic infections and failure of root canal treatment, is a persistent inhabitant of oral periapical lesions. Dendritic cells (DCs) and other innate immune cells patrol the oral mucosa for infecting microbes. Dendritic cells are efficient at capturing microbes when immature, whereupon they can transform into potent antigen-presenting cells upon full maturation. Autophagy, a sophisticated intracellular process first described for elimination of damaged organelles, regulates DC maturation and other important immune functions of DCs. The present study examined how E. faecalis influences the differentiation of murine bone marrow-derived stem cells (BMSCs) into functional DCs in the presence of the cytokines granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and interleukin-4 (IL-4). Although the viability and differentiation of DCs were not affected by E. faecalis, expression of the autophagy-related proteins ATG7, Beclin1, and LC3bI/II were significantly suppressed in an mTOR-dependent manner. Ultrastructurally, E. faecalis was identified in single-membrane vacuoles, some of which were in the process of binary fission. Bacterium-containing autophagosomes were absent within the cytoplasm. Accessory molecules (major histocompatibility complex class II [MHC-II], CD80, and CD86) and anti-inflammatory cytokine (transforming growth factor β1 [TGF-β1]) were suppressed in E. faecalis-induced DCs, while IL-1β, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), and IL-12 levels were upregulated. When pulsed with ovalbumin (OVA), the E. faecalis-induced DCs showed reduction in CD4+ OVA-specific OT-II T cell proliferation. It is concluded that E. faecalis promotes the differentiation of bone marrow stem cells into CD11c-positive DCs with aberrant immune functions while retaining the capability of proinflammatory cytokine induction.

Abstract
Osteoporosis has become a worldwide disease characterized by a reduction in bone mineral density and the alteration of bone architecture leading to an increased risk of fragility fractures. And an increasing number of studies have indicated that osteoblasts undergo a large number of programmed death events by many different causes in osteoporosis and release NLRP3 and interleukin (e.g., inflammatory factors), which play pivotal roles in contributing to excessive differentiation of osteoclasts and result in exaggerated bone resorption. NLRP3 is activated during pyroptosis and processes the precursors of IL-1β and IL-18 into mature forms, which are released into the extracellular milieu accompanied by cell rupture. All of these compounds are the classical factors of pyroptosis. The cellular effects of pyroptosis are commonly observed in osteoporosis. Although many previous studies have focused on the pathogenesis of these inflammatory factors in osteoporosis, pyroptosis has not been previously evaluated. In this review, pyroptosis is proposed as a novel hypothesis of osteoporosis pathogenesis for the first time, thus providing a new direction for the treatment of osteoporosis in the future.

Abstract
Objective This study investigated interleukin (IL)-33 expression in chronic apical periodontitis (CAP) lesions and possible relationships with receptor activator of nuclear factor κ-Β ligand (RANKL) and osteoprotegerin (OPG). Methods Inflammatory cell infiltration in CAP lesions and samples of healthy periapical tissue (n = 30 each) was evaluated by hematoxylin and eosin staining. IL-33, RANKL, and OPG expression levels were assessed by immunohistochemistry and real-time PCR. In CAP lesions alone, relationships between mRNA level of IL-33 and mRNA levels of both RANKL and OPG were analyzed by Spearman rank correlation. Results Histological analysis revealed a large number of inflammatory cells in CAP lesions, and immunohistochemistry revealed IL-33-positive cells. There were more IL-33- and RANKL-positive cells in CAP lesions than in healthy periapical tissue, whereas there were fewer OPG-positive cells in CAP lesions than in healthy periapical tissue. In CAP lesions alone, IL-33 mRNA level was negatively correlated with mRNA level of RANKL and positively correlated with mRNA level of OPG. Conclusions IL-33 is highly expressed in CAP lesions, where it is negatively correlated with RANKL and positively correlated with OPG expression. IL-33 may protect against bone resorption via RANKL suppression and OPG induction, and constitutes a potential target for CAP treatment.

Abstract
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) leads to approximately 1.5 million human deaths every year. In pulmonary tuberculosis (TB), Mtb must drive host tissue destruction to cause pulmonary cavitation and dissemination in the tissues. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are endopeptidases capable of degrading all components of pulmonary extracellular matrix (ECM). It is well established that Mtb infection leads to upregulation of MMPs and also causes disturbance in the balance between MMPs and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs), thus altering the extracellular matrix deposition. In TB, secretion of MMPs is mainly regulated by NF-κB, p38 and MAPK signalling pathways. In addition, recent studies have demonstrated the immunomodulatory roles of MMPs in Mtb pathogenesis. Researchers have proposed a new regimen of improved TB treatment by inhibition of MMP activity to hinder matrix destruction and to minimize the TB-associated morbidity and mortality. The proposed regimen involves adjunctive use of MMP inhibitors such as doxycycline, marimastat and other related drugs along with front-line anti-TB drugs to reduce granuloma formation and bacterial load. These findings implicate the possible addition of economical and well-tolerated MMP inhibitors to current multidrug regimens as an attractive mean to increase the drug potency. Here, we will summarize the recent advancements regarding expression of MMPs in TB, their immunomodulatory role, as well as their potential as therapeutic targets to control the deadly disease.

Bi CS, Sun LJ, Qu HL, Chen F, Tian BM, Chen FM. The relationship between T-helper cell polarization and the RANKL/OPG ratio in gingival tissues from chronic periodontitis patients. Clin Exp Dent Res 2019; 5:377-388. [PMID: 31944625 PMCID: PMC7938418 DOI: 10.1002/cre2.192] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2019] [Revised: 04/17/2019] [Accepted: 04/23/2019] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the relationship between inflammation‐related T‐helper cell polarization and the receptor activator for nuclear factor‐κB ligand (RANKL)/osteoprotegerin (OPG) ratio, which is associated with bone resorption or remodeling of chronic periodontitis patients. Gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and gingival tissues were obtained from periodontally healthy individuals (PH group) and chronic periodontitis patients (CP group). The GCF levels of IFN‐γ, IL‐4, IL‐17, and IL‐10 linked to T‐helper cell polarization toward the Th1, Th2, Th17, and Treg phenotypes, respectively, were determined by ELISA. The expression levels of these cytokines and the polarized T‐helper cells in gingival tissues were assessed through immunohistochemical and immunofluorescence assays. In addition, the RANKL and OPG expression levels in gingival tissues were detected by immunohistochemical assays, and linear regression analysis was used to identify the potential relationship between T‐helper cell polarization and the RANKL/OPG ratio. In total, 22 individuals and 35 patients were enrolled in the present study. In both GCF and gingival tissues, increased levels of IL‐17 and the decreased levels of IL‐4 and IL‐10 were observed in the CP group. When polarized T‐helper cells were identified in gingival tissues, more Th1 and Th17 cells were found in the CP group, whereas more Th2 and Treg cells were found in the PH group. Although there was no significant difference in OPG expression between the two groups, the RANKL/OPG ratio in the CP group was higher than that in the PH group. The linear regression analysis showed that the presence of more Th1 and Th17 cells correlated with a higher RANKL/OPG ratio, whereas the presence of more Th2 cells correlated with a lower RANKL/OPG ratio. Th1 and Th17 cells are positively correlated and Th2 cells are negatively correlated with the RANKL/OPG ratio. Our data suggest that T‐helper cell polarization is closely linked to the RANKL/OPG ratio in gingival tissues from chronic periodontitis patients.

Abstract
Immunomodulation strategies are believed to improve the integration and clinical performance of synthetic bone substitutes. One potential approach is the modification of biomaterial surface chemistry to mimic bone extracellular matrix (ECM). In this sense, we hypothesized that coating synthetic dicalcium phosphate (DCP) bioceramics with bone ECM proteins would modulate the host immune reactions and improve their regenerative performance. To test this, we evaluated the in vitro proteomic surface interactions and the in vivo performance of ECM-coated bioceramic scaffolds. Our results demonstrated that coating DCP scaffolds with bone extracts, specifically those containing calcium-binding proteins, dramatically modulated their interaction with plasma proteins in vitro, especially those relating to the innate immune response. In vivo, we observed an attenuated inflammatory response against the bioceramic scaffolds and enhanced peri-scaffold new bone formation supported by the increased osteoblastogenesis and reduced osteoclastogenesis. Furthermore, the bone extract rich in calcium-binding proteins can be 3D-printed to produce customized hydrogels with improved regeneration capabilities. In summary, bone extracts containing calcium-binding proteins can enhance the integration of synthetic biomaterials and improve their ability to regenerate bone probably by modulating the host immune reaction. This finding helps understand how bone allografts regenerate bone and opens the door for new advances in tissue engineering and bone regeneration. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Foreign-body reaction is an important determinant of in vivo biomaterial integration, as an undesired host immune response can compromise the performance of an implanted biomaterial. For this reason, applying immunomodulation strategies to enhance biomaterial engraftment is of great interest in the field of regenerative medicine. In this article, we illustrated that coating dicalcium phosphate bioceramic scaffolds with bone-ECM extracts, especially those rich in calcium-binding proteins, is a promising approach to improve their surface proteomic interactions and modulate the immune responses towards such biomaterials in a way that improves their bone regeneration performance. Collectively, the results of this study may provide a conceivable explanation for the mechanisms involved in presenting the excellent regenerative efficacy of natural bone grafts.

Abstract
Apical periodontitis is an inflammatory disorder that results from the host immune response to microbial infection through the dental pulp, leading to alveolar bone destruction. The nod-like receptor 12 (NLRP12) is an atypical intracellular sensor of the NLR family that is involved in the negative regulation of several inflammatory conditions and also osteoclastogenesis. However, the role of NLRP12 in the regulation of immune response and bone loss induced by bacterial infection remains unclear. Here we investigated the development of apical periodontitis in wild-type (WT) and NLRP12 knockout (NLRP12–/–) mice by using micro–computed tomography together with histological, immunohistochemical, and molecular analyses. We found that NLRP12–/– mice are highly susceptible to apical periodontitis induced by bacterial infection, which is associated with an elevated infiltration of neutrophils and macrophages, periapical lesion extension, and alveolar bone destruction. Furthermore, NLRP12–/– mice showed a high expression of inflammatory cytokines ( Il1b, Il6, and Tnfa) and the osteoclastogenic markers ( Rankl and Acp5) in the periapical tissues. Consistent with this observation, NLRP12–/– mice showed an increased number of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase–positive cells lining the apical periodontitis site, which was associated with augmented expression of the osteoclast effector genes, Ctsk and Mmp9. Mechanistically, NLRP12-deficient preosteoclasts showed elevated IκB-α degradation and p65 phosphorylation when stimulated with receptor activator of nuclear factor (NF)–κB ligand (RANKL). Similarly, increased IκB-α degradation was observed in the periapical tissue of NLRP12–/– mice. Furthermore, our in vitro study showed that preosteoclasts from NLRP12–/– mice exhibited higher RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis, which was synergistically amplified by interleukin-1β and tumor necrosis factor α (mimicking an inflammatory periapical milieu). In conclusion, our data show that NLRP12 exhibits a protective role in the periapical bone destruction by attenuating inflammation and osteoclastogenesis through negative regulation of the NF-κB pathway.

Abstract
Transplanting mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has been widely perceived as an ideal treatment for bone repair and regeneration, owing to their differential potential. However, researchers found that very few intravenous MSCs could stay in the target tissue, whereas the majority of them are trapped in liver, spleen, and lung, largely reducing its therapeutic effects. Recently, extracellular vesicles (EVs) have attracted increased attention due to their function in bone repair and advantages over traditional cell therapy. Also, MSCs-derived EVs are likely to achieve the osteogenic goal via modulating the cells and cytokines involved in bone metabolism. This review aims at summarizing the function of EVs and MSCs in bone metabolism and regeneration. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Biomed Mater Res Part A: 107A: 243-250, 2019.

The Effects of Smoking on Expression of IL-12 and IL-1β in Gingival Tissues of Patients with Chronic Periodontitis. Open Dent J 2017; 11:595-602. [PMID: 29299075 PMCID: PMC5725480 DOI: 10.2174/1874210601711010595] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2017] [Revised: 09/12/2017] [Accepted: 10/18/2017] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Aim: The purpose of this study was to compare IL-1β and IL-12 gene expression in the gingival tissue of smokers and non-smokers either with healthy periodontium or with chronic periodontitis. Materials and Methods: 41 individuals consisting of 21 healthy controls (11 non-smokers and 10 smokers) and 20 chronic periodontitis patients (10 non-smokers and 10 smokers) participated in this study. Samples were collected from papillary regions of targeted areas and cytokines were analyzed using Real Time PCR. Shapiro-Wilk, Mann-Witney and Independent T tests were employed for statistical analysis. Results: IL-1β gene expression in gingival tissue of non-smoker group with chronic periodontitis was significantly higher than non-smoker-healthy group (p=0.011). Smoker-chronic periodontitis group showed lower IL-1β gene expression than non-smoker-chronic periodontitis group (p=0.003). IL-12 gene expression was not significantly different between analyzed groups. Conclusion: IL-1β gene expression increases in gingival tissue of non-smoker-chronic periodontitis patients due to inflammatory processes but smoking reduces the expression of this cytokine in diseased periodontal tissues. On the other hand periodontal condition and smoking habits do not seem to affect IL-12 gene expressions in gingival tissues. Authors concluded that reduced levels of IL1 and in some extent IL12 in smoking patients are responsible for higher tissue and bone degenerations and less treatment responses in smokers.

Interleukin-12-mediated expression of matrix metalloproteinases in human periodontal ligament fibroblasts involves in NF-κB activation. Biosci Rep 2017; 37:BSR20170973. [PMID: 29054963 PMCID: PMC5696454 DOI: 10.1042/bsr20170973] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/22/2017] [Revised: 09/27/2017] [Accepted: 10/19/2017] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
Interleukin-12 (IL-12) is a proinflammatory cytokine, and its increased level correlates with the severity of periodontitis. However, its role in the pathogenesis of tooth periapical lesions is controversial and has not been completely clarified. The present study aimed to investigate whether IL-12 affects the expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) in human periodontal ligament fibroblasts (hPDLFs). After treatment with IL-12 for different times, real-time PCR and Western blotting were used to determine the mRNA and protein levels of MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-3, MMP-9, MMP-13, TIMP-1, and TIMP-2, respectively. ELISA was applied to measure MMPs and TIMPs secretion production. The results indicated that IL-12 significantly increased the mRNA and protein expression levels of MMP-1, MMP-3, and MMP-13, but down-regulated MMP-2 and MMP-9 mRNA and protein expression in the hPDLFs. Furthermore, IL-12 (10 ng/ml) enhanced the secreted protein production of MMP-1, MMP-3, and MMP-13, and conversely lowered MMP-2 and MMP-9 secretion levels. However, IL-12 treatment did not exert a significant effect on the mRNA and protein levels of TIMP-1 and TIMP-2 and their secreted production. Additionally, IL-12 increased the phosphorylated levels of IκBα and nuclear factor-κB P65 (NF-κB P65), and promoted NF-κB P65 subunit nuclear translocation. Pretreatment with NF-κB inhibitor not only attenuated IL-12-induced IκBα and NF-κB P65 phosphorylation and inhibited NF-κB P65 subunit into nucleus, but also antagonized IL-12-mediated MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-3, MMP-9, and MMP-13 expression in the hPDLFs. These findings indicate that NF-κB-dependent activation is possibly indispensable for IL-12-mediated MMP expression in hPDLFs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study was performed to investigate the effect of iRoot SP and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) on the viability and polarization of macrophages. METHODS The effect of iRoot SP and MTA on the viability of RAW 264.7 macrophages was tested using the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay after 1 and 2days of culture. The gene expression levels of interleukin 1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin 10 (IL-10), interleukin 12p40 (IL-12p40) were measured by quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) after stimulation of the RAW 264.7 macrophages with iRoot SP and MTA. The expression levels of CD11c and CD206 in RAW 264.7 macrophages were examined by immunofluorescence and flow cytometry after stimulation with iRoot SP and MTA. The data were analyzed by one-way analysis of variance and the Tukey test. RESULTS Both iRoot SP and MTA were non-toxic to the RAW 264.7 macrophages. The use of iRoot SP and MTA increased the expression of IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-10, IL-12p40 on the first day of culture and could promote macrophage M1 and M2 polarization. CONCLUSIONS MTA and iRoot SP have good biocompatibility with macrophages, and they induced both M1 and M2 polarization of the RAW 264.7 macrophages.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Increased level of proinflammatory cytokine interleukin (IL)-12 correlates with the severity of periodontitis. Yet, a possible role of IL-12 in periodontal disease has not been clarified. The aim of this study is to investigate whether IL-12 affects expression of receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) ligand (RANKL), a potent osteoclast-stimulating factor, by human periodontal ligament (hPDL) cells. METHODS To determine the effect of IL-12, hPDL cells were incubated with recombinant human IL-12 (p70) in a dose- (0 to 10 ng/mL) and time-dependent manner. Expression of RANKL was evaluated at mRNA and protein levels. Underlying signaling pathways of IL-12 were determined by using specific inhibitors. RESULTS Under the influence of IL-12, hPDL cells expressed significantly higher levels of RANKL. Expression was mediated by signal transducer and activator of transcription 4 and NF-κB signaling pathways. Conditioned medium of IL-12-incubated cells proved to contain molecule(s) that induced RANKL expression. Addition of suramin (G protein-coupled receptor inhibitor) and ethylene glycol tetraacetic acid (calcium chelator) suggested existence of intermediate molecule(s) that could activate heterotrimeric G protein signaling in a calcium-dependent pathway. CONCLUSIONS Expression of RANKL by hPDL cells significantly increased after IL-12 treatment. Therefore, this study supports a close interrelationship between immune and skeletal systems and suggests an osteolytic role of IL-12 in pathogenesis of periodontal disease.

Abstract
Periodontal diseases usually refer to common inflammatory disorders known as gingivitis and periodontitis, which are caused by a pathogenic microbiota in the subgingival biofilm, including Porphyromonas gingivalis, Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, Tannerella forsythia and Treponema denticola that trigger innate, inflammatory, and adaptive immune responses. These processes result in the destruction of the tissues surrounding and supporting the teeth, and eventually in tissue, bone and finally, tooth loss. The innate immune response constitutes a homeostatic system, which is the first line of defense, and is able to recognize invading microorganisms as non-self, triggering immune responses to eliminate them. In addition to the innate immunity, adaptive immunity cells and characteristic cytokines have been described as important players in the periodontal disease pathogenesis scenario, with a special attention to CD4+ T-cells (T-helper cells). Interestingly, the T cell-mediated adaptive immunity development is highly dependent on innate immunity-associated antigen presenting cells, which after antigen capture undergo into a maturation process and migrate towards the lymph nodes, where they produce distinct patterns of cytokines that will contribute to the subsequent polarization and activation of specific T CD4+ lymphocytes. Skeletal homeostasis depends on a dynamic balance between the activities of the bone-forming osteoblasts (OBLs) and bone-resorbing osteoclasts (OCLs). This balance is tightly controlled by various regulatory systems, such as the endocrine system, and is influenced by the immune system, an osteoimmunological regulation depending on lymphocyte- and macrophage-derived cytokines. All these cytokines and inflammatory mediators are capable of acting alone or in concert, to stimulate periodontal breakdown and collagen destruction via tissue-derived matrix metalloproteinases, a characterization of the progression of periodontitis as a stage that presents a significantly host immune and inflammatory response to the microbial challenge that determine of susceptibility to develop the destructive/progressive periodontitis under the influence of multiple behavioral, environmental and genetic factors.

Abstract
Particle-induced osteolysis is a major issue, and it is most likely the result of enhanced osteoclast activation in the pathogenesis of various skeletal diseases. This study investigated whether the inhibitory effect that Polycan has on osteoclast differentiation can be used to treat osteolysis induced by titanium (Ti) particles. To this end, the effects of Polycan were examined in terms of the cytotoxicity, osteoclast differentiation, cytokine expression, and Ti-induced calvarial osteolysis. Polycan had no significant cytotoxic effects on bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) but instead increased BMM proliferation. High levels of interleukin (IL)-6, IL-12, and macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) were expressed in BMM cells in the presence of Polycan, suggesting that Polycan drives the differentiation of BMMs into M1 macrophages. Polycan significantly inhibited osteoclast differentiation induced by M-CSF and the receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL). The expression levels of the osteoclast marker genes significantly decreased, and Polycan induced and maintained the expression of IL-12, which suppressed osteoclast differentiation. In contrast, the RANKL signaling pathway was not inhibited by Polycan. An in vivo calvarial osteolysis model revealed that Polycan significantly decreased the osteoclast numbers and suppressed osteolysis. Our results suggest that the natural compound Polycan is a good candidate for therapeutic intervention against enhanced osteoclast differentiation and Ti particle-induced osteolysis. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE The angiotensin type 1 (AT1) receptor has been implicated in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bone disorders. This study aimed to investigate the effect of an AT1 receptor antagonist in infection-induced and arthritis-associated alveolar bone loss in mice. MATERIAL AND METHODS Mice were subjected to Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans oral infection or antigen-induced arthritis and treated daily with 10 mg/kg of the prototype AT1 antagonist, losartan. Treatment was conducted for 30 d in the infectious condition and for 17 d and 11 d in the preventive or therapeutic regimens in the arthritic model, respectively. The mice were then killed, and the maxillae, serum and knee joints were collected for histomorphometric and immunoenzymatic assays. In vitro osteoclast assays were performed using RAW 264.7 cells stimulated with A. actinomycetemcomitans lipopolysacharide (LPS). RESULTS Arthritis and A. actinomycetemcomitans infection triggered significant alveolar bone loss in mice and increased the levels of myeloperoxidase and of TRAP(+) osteoclasts in periodontal tissues. Losartan abolished such a phenotype, as well as the arthritis joint inflammation. Both arthritis and A. actinomycetemcomitans conditions were associated with the release of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interferon-gamma, interleukin-17 and chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 1 and an increased RANKL/osteoprotegerin ratio in periodontal tissues, but such expression decreased after losartan treatment, except for TNF-α. The therapeutic approach was as beneficial as the preventive one. In vitro, losartan prevented LPS-induced osteoclast differentiation and activity. CONCLUSION The blockade of AT1 receptor exerts anti-inflammatory and anti-osteoclastic effects, thus protecting periodontal tissues in distinct pathophysiological conditions of alveolar bone loss.

Abstract
The skeletal and immune systems share a multitude of regulatory molecules, including cytokines, receptors, signaling molecules, and signaling transducers, thereby mutually influencing each other. In recent years, several novel insights have been attained that have enhanced our current understanding of the detailed mechanisms of osteoimmunology. In orthodontic tooth movement, immune responses mediated by periodontal tissue under mechanical force induce the generation of inflammatory responses with consequent alveolar bone resorption, and many regulators are involved in this process. In this review, we take a closer look at the cellular/molecular mechanisms and signaling involved in osteoimmunology and at relevant research progress in the context of the field of orthodontic tooth movement.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the immunohistochemical expression of transforming growing factor beta (TGF-β) and interferon gamma (IFN-γ) between radicular cysts (RCs) and dentigerous cysts (DCs). METHODS Twenty RCs and DCs were selected for analysis of the immunoexpression of TGF-β and IFN-γ in the epithelium and capsule. RESULTS The cell reactivity of TGF-β and IFN-γ in the lining epithelium and capsule of RCs showed no significant differences when compared with DCs (P > .05). There was a tendency of a higher expression of TGF-β in the capsule of DCs. CONCLUSIONS Our results showed the presence of TGF-β and IFN-γ in RCs and DCs, supporting the hypothesis that both participate in the development of these lesions, where IFN-γ usually plays a role in bone resorption, which is counterbalanced by the osteoprotective activity performed by TGF-β.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the kinetics of GSK3β and p-GSK3β (Ser 9) expression in experimentally induced rat periapical lesions and to explore their possible functions in the pathogenesis of periapical lesions. METHODOLOGY Periapical lesions were established in Wistar rats by occlusal pulp exposure in mandibular first molar teeth. The animals were killed on days 0, 7, 14, 21 and 28. Micro-computed tomographic, histological and enzyme histochemical analyses were performed to detect the progression of periapical lesions. Immunohistochemistry, double-dye immunofluorescence and Western blot were performed to determine the expression of GSK3β and p-GSK3β (Ser 9) in periapical tissues. RESULTS From day 0 to day 28, the lesion volume and area gradually expanded, and the GSK3β-positive cells gradually ascended. A few p-GSK3β (Ser 9)-positive cells and osteoclasts appeared on day 7 and then climaxed on day 14. The numbers then simultaneously decreased from day 21 to day 28. Western blot analysis revealed that p-GSK3β (Ser 9) and GSK3β proteins were expressed at all time-points. The positive cells and protein expression ratio of p-GSK3β (Ser 9) against GSK3β increased from day 0 to day 14 and then decreased from day 14 to day 28. Finally, double-dye immunofluorescence assay revealed that p-GSK3β (Ser 9)-positive and RANKL-positive cells were co-localized around periapical lesions on days 14 and 28. CONCLUSIONS GSK3β and p-GSK3β (Ser 9) can be observed and may be involved in alveolar bone resorption and inflammatory response in periapical lesions, as well as associated with periapical lesion pathogenesis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Different cell types and cytokines have been identified as contributors to the formation of periapical lesions. In this perspective, this study aimed to evaluate the immunoexpression of interleukin (IL)-17, transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1, and the forkhead box P3 (FoxP3) in periapical lesions, correlating them with the type of lesion, the intensity of the inflammatory infiltrate, and the thickness of the cystic epithelial lining. METHODS Twenty periapical granulomas (PGs), 20 radicular cysts (RCs), and 20 residual radicular cysts (RRCs) were submitted to immunohistochemical analysis using anti-IL-17, anti-TGF-β1, and anti-FoxP3 antibodies. RESULTS In comparison with PGs and RCs, RRCs exhibited a lower immunoexpression of IL-17 and TGF-β1 (P = .021 and P < .001, respectively). The number of FoxP3+ cells increased in this order: RRCs, RCs, and PGs (P < .001). In comparison with lesions with inflammatory infiltrates grades I and II, lesions with inflammatory infiltrate grade III exhibited a higher number of FoxP3+ cells (P = .002). Similarly, in comparison with lesions with inflammatory infiltrates grades II and III, lesions with inflammatory infiltrate grade I showed a tendency for a lower expression of IL-17 and TGF-β1 (P = .085 and P = .051, respectively). For all groups, there was a positive correlation between the immunoexpressions of IL-17 and TGF-β1 (P < .05). Positive correlations between the number of FoxP3+ cells and the immunoexpressions of IL-17 and TGF-β1 (P < .05) were found only in PGs. CONCLUSIONS Th17 and Treg cells seem to interact at the site of injury, suggesting the involvement of proinflammatory and immunoregulatory cytokines in the pathogenesis of periapical lesions.

Abstract
Bone and immune system are functionally interconnected. Immune and bone cells derive from same progenitors in the bone marrow, they share a common microenvironment and are being influenced by similar mediators. The evidence on increased bone resorption associated with inappropriate activation of T cells such as during inflammation, is well established. However, the molecular mechanisms beyond this clinical observation have begun to be intensively studied with the advancement of osteoimmunology. Now days, we have firm evidence on the influence of numerous proinflammatory cytokines on bone cells, with the majority of data focused on osteoclasts, the bone resorbing cells. It has been shown that some proinflammatory cytokines could possess osteoclastogenic and/or anti-osteoclastogenic properties and can target osteoclasts directly or via receptor activator of nuclear factor κB (RANK)/RANK ligand(RANKL)/osteoprotegerin (OPG) system. Several studies have reported opposing data regarding (anti)osteoclastogenic properties of these cytokines. Therefore, the first part of this review is summarizing current evidence on the influence of pro-inflammatory cytokines on osteoclasts and thus on bone resorption. In the second part, the evidence on the role of pro-inflammatory cytokines in osteoporosis and osteoarthritis is reviewed to show that unravelling the mechanisms beyond such complex bone diseases, is almost impossible without considering skeletal and immune systems as an indivisible integrated system.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The development of periapical granulomas is dependent on the host response and involves Th1, Th2, Th17, and Treg-related cytokines. The discovery of new Th9 and Th22 subsets, with important immunomodulatory roles mediated by interleukin (IL)-9 and IL-22, respectively, emphasizes the need for reevaluation of current cytokine paradigms in context of periapical lesions. We investigated the expression of IL-9 and IL-22 in active and stable human granulomas and throughout experimental lesion development in mice. METHODS Periapical granulomas (N = 83) and control specimens (N = 24) were evaluated regarding the expression of IL-9 and IL-22 via real-time polymerase chain reaction. Experimental periapical lesions were induced in mice (pulp exposure and bacterial inoculation) and the lesions evolution correlation with IL-9 and IL-22 expression kinetics was evaluated. RESULTS IL-9 and IL-22 mRNA expression was higher in periapical lesions than in control samples; higher levels of IL-9 and IL-22 were observed in inactive than in active lesions. In the experimental lesions model, increasing levels of IL-9 and IL-22 mRNA were detected in the lesions, and inverse correlations were found between IL-9 and IL-22 and the increase of lesion area in the different time point intervals. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that Th9 and Th22 pathways may contribute to human and experimental periapical lesion stability.
