J Clin Periodontol 2024; 51:338-353. [PMID: 38110189 DOI: 10.1111/jcpe.13915] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2023] [Revised: 10/22/2023] [Accepted: 11/24/2023] [Indexed: 12/20/2023]
Abstract
AIM Recombinant bone matrix (RBM) is a newly conceived and engineered porous bone graft granule of average size 600 μm composed of purified recombinant collagen peptide. We sought to examine the behaviour with time of RBM that was grafted in the canine tooth extraction socket. MATERIALS AND METHODS The canine tooth extraction socket of the hemisectioned mandibular third premolar distal root was grafted with RBM granules, whereas the opposite side extraction socket served as non-grafted control. The mandibular samples were harvested at 1, 3 and 6 months of healing and subjected to micro-CT imaging and decalcified paraffin-embedded histology. Separately, the effect of RBM was compared with that of deproteinized cancellous bovine bone (DCBB) and bovine atelocollagen plug (BACP) in the canine tooth extraction model at 3 months of healing. RESULTS RBM maintained the grafted space in the socket and the gingival connective tissue until new bone was formed within its porous space. The regenerated bone was highly vascularized and continued to mature, while RBM was completely bioresorbed by 6 months. The buccal and lingual alveolar ridge heights of the RBM-grafted extraction socket was better preserved than those of non-grafted control sockets. The degree of socket preservation by RBM was equivalent to that by DCBB, although their healing mechanisms were different. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated that RBM induced controlled active bone regeneration and preserved the extraction socket structure in a canine model. Bioresorbable RBM engineered without animal or human source materials presents a novel bone graft category with robust bone regenerative property.

Abstract
Collagen XII, a fibril-associated collagen with interrupted triple helices (FACIT), influences fibrillogenesis in numerous tissues. In addition to this extracellular function, collagen XII also directly regulates cellular function. Collagen XII is widely expressed in connective tissues, particularly tendons, ligaments, and the periodontium and periosteum, where it is enriched in the pericellular regions. Mutations in the collagen XII gene cause myopathic Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (mEDS), an early-onset disease characterized by overlapping connective tissue abnormalities and muscle weakness. Patients with mEDS exhibit delayed motor development, muscle weakness, joint laxity, hypermobility, joint contractures, and abnormal wound healing. A mEDS mouse model was generated by deletion of the Col12a1 gene, resulting in skeletal and muscle abnormalities with disorganized tissue structures and altered mechanical properties. Extracellularly, collagen XII interacts with collagen I fibrils and regulates collagen fibril spacing and assembly during fibrillogenesis. Evidence for the binding of collagen XII to other EDS-related molecules (e.g., decorin and tenascin X) suggests that disruption of ECM molecular interactions is one of the causes of connective tissue pathology in mEDS. Collagen XII also has been shown to influence cell behavior, such as cell shape and cell-cell communication, by providing physical connection between adjacent cells during tissue development and regeneration. The focus of this review is on the functions of collagen XII in development, regeneration, and disease.

Abstract
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are a ubiquitous group of persistent chemicals distributed globally in the environment. Skin aging is a notorious process that is prematurely induced by the interaction between endogenous and exogenous factors, including exposure to environmental chemicals. The existing evidence suggests that skin absorption of PFASs through dermal contact may be an important route of exposure to these chemicals in humans. On the other hand, PFASs intake by other routes may lead to PFASs bioaccumulation in the skin via tissue bio-distribution. Additionally, the presence of PFASs in consumer and cosmetic products combined with their daily close contact with the skin could render humans readily susceptible to dermal absorption. Therefore, chronic low-dose dermal exposure to PFASs can occur in the human population, representing another important route of exposure to these chemicals. Studies indicate that PFASs can threaten skin health and contribute to premature skin aging. Initiation of inflammatory-oxidative cascades, induction of DNA damage such as telomere shortening, dysregulation of genes engaged in dermal barrier integrity and its functions, signaling of the mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway, and last but not least the down-regulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) components are among the most likely mechanisms by which PFASs can contribute to premature skin aging.

Abstract
Within the mandible, the odontogenic and osteogenic mesenchymes develop in a close proximity and form at about the same time. They both originate from the cranial neural crest. These two condensing ecto-mesenchymes are soon separated from each other by a very loose interstitial mesenchyme, whose cells do not express markers suggesting a neural crest origin. The two condensations give rise to mineralized tissues while the loose interstitial mesenchyme, remains as a soft tissue. This is crucial for proper anchorage of mammalian teeth. The situation in all three regions of the mesenchyme was compared with regard to cell heterogeneity. As the development progresses, the early phenotypic differences and the complexity in cell heterogeneity increases. The differences reported here and their evolution during development progressively specifies each of the three compartments. The aim of this review was to discuss the mechanisms underlying condensation in both the odontogenic and osteogenic compartments as well as the progressive differentiation of all three mesenchymes during development. Very early, they show physical and structural differences including cell density, shape and organization as well as the secretion of three distinct matrices, two of which will mineralize. Based on these data, this review highlights the consecutive differences in cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions, which support the cohesion as well as mechanosensing and mechanotransduction. These are involved in the conversion of mechanical energy into biochemical signals, cytoskeletal rearrangements cell differentiation, or collective cell behavior.

Abstract
Development of mammalian teeth and surrounding tissues includes time-space changes in the extracellular matrix composition and organization. This requires complex control mechanisms to regulate its synthesis and remodeling. Fibril-associated collagens with interrupted triple helices (FACITs) and a group of small leucine-rich proteoglycans (SLRPs) are involved in the regulation of collagen fibrillogenesis. Recently, collagen type XII and collagen type XIV, members of the FACITs family, were found in the peridental mesenchyme contributing to alveolar bone formation. This study was designed to follow temporospatial expression of collagen types XIIa and XIVa in mouse first molar and adjacent tissues from embryonic day 13, when the alveolar bone becomes morphologically apparent around the molar tooth bud, until postnatal day 22, as the posteruption stage. The patterns of decorin, biglycan, and fibromodulin, all members of the SLRPs family and interacting with collagens XIIa and XIVa, were investigated simultaneously. The situation in the tooth was related to what happens in the alveolar bone, and both were compared to the periodontal ligament. The investigation provided a complex localization of the five antigens in soft tissues, the dental pulp, and periodontal ligaments; in the mineralized tissues, predentin/dentin and alveolar bone; and junction between soft and hard tissues. The results illustrated developmentally regulated and tissue-specific changes in the balance of the two FACITs and three SLRPs.

Abstract
The structure and function of the skin relies on the complex expression pattern and organisation of extracellular matrix macromolecules, of which collagens are a principal component. The fibrillar collagens, types I and III, constitute over 90% of the collagen content within the skin and are the major determinants of the strength and stiffness of the tissue. However, the minor collagens also play a crucial regulatory role in a variety of processes, including cell anchorage, matrix assembly, and growth factor signalling. In this article, we review the expression patterns, key functions and involvement in disease pathogenesis of the minor collagens found in the skin. While it is clear that the minor collagens are important mediators of normal tissue function, homeostasis and repair, further insight into the molecular level structure and activity of these proteins is required for translation into clinical therapies.

Abstract
Periodontal ligament (PDL) plays critical roles in the development and maintenance of periodontium such as tooth eruption and dissipation of masticatory force. The mechanical properties of PDL are mainly derived from fibrillar type I collagen, the most abundant extracellular component. The biosynthesis of type I collagen is a long, complex process including a number of intra- and extracellular post-translational modifications. The final modification step is the formation of covalent intra- and intermolecular cross-links that provide collagen fibrils with stability and connectivity. It is now clear that collagen post-translational modifications are regulated by groups of specific enzymes and associated molecules in a tissue-specific manner; and these modifications appear to change in response to mechanical force. This review focuses on the effect of mechanical loading on collagen biosynthesis and fibrillogenesis in PDL with emphasis on the post-translational modifications of collagens, which is an important molecular aspect to understand in the field of prosthetic dentistry.

Abstract
We have previously determined that integrin α11β1 is required on mouse periodontal ligament (PDL) fibroblasts to generate the force needed for incisor eruption. As part of the phenotype of α11(-/-) mice, the incisor PDL (iPDL) is thickened, due to disturbed matrix remodeling. To determine the molecular mechanism behind the disturbed matrix dynamics in the PDL we crossed α11(-/-) mice with the Immortomouse and isolated immortalized iPDL cells. Microarray analysis of iPDL cells cultured inside a 3D collagen gel demonstrated downregulated expression of a number of genes in α11-deficient iPDL cells, including matrix metalloproteinase-13 (MMP-13) and cathepsin K. α11(-/-) iPDL cells in vitro displayed disturbed interactions with collagen I during contraction of attached and floating collagen lattices and furthermore displayed reduced MMP-13 protein expression levels. The MMP-13 specific inhibitor WAY 170523 and the Cathepsin K Inhibitor II both blocked part of the α11 integrin-mediated collagen remodeling. In summary, our data demonstrate that in iPDL fibroblasts the mechanical strain generated by α11β1 integrin regulates molecules involved in collagen matrix dynamics. The positive regulation of α11β1-dependent matrix remodeling, involving MMP-13 and cathepsin K, might also occur in other types of fibroblasts and be an important regulatory mechanism for coordinated extracellular and intracellular collagen turnover in tissue homeostasis.

Abstract
Periodontal ligament (PDL) tissue, central in the periodontium, plays crucial roles in sustaining tooth in the bone socket. Irreparable damages of this tissue provoke tooth loss, causing a decreased quality of life. The question arises as to how PDL tissue is maintained or how the lost PDL tissue can be regenerated. Stem cells included in PDL tissue (PDLSCs) are widely accepted to have the potential to maintain or regenerate the periodontium, but PDLSCs are very few in number. In recent studies, undifferentiated clonal human PDL cell lines were developed to elucidate the applicable potentials of PDLSCs for the periodontal regenerative medicine based on cell-based tissue engineering. In addition, it has been suggested that transforming growth factor-beta 1 is an eligible factor for the maintenance and regeneration of PDL tissue.

Abstract
Background Newts have the remarkable ability to regenerate their spinal cords as adults. Their spinal cords regenerate with the regenerating tail after tail amputation, as well as after a gap-inducing spinal cord injury (SCI), such as a complete transection. While most studies on newt spinal cord regeneration have focused on events occurring after tail amputation, less attention has been given to events occurring after an SCI, a context that is more relevant to human SCI. Our goal was to use modern labeling and imaging techniques to observe axons regenerating across a complete transection injury and determine how cells and the extracellular matrix in the injury site might contribute to the regenerative process. Results We identify stages of axon regeneration following a spinal cord transection and find that axon regrowth across the lesion appears to be enabled, in part, because meningeal cells and glia form a permissive environment for axon regeneration. Meningeal and endothelial cells regenerate into the lesion first and are associated with a loose extracellular matrix that allows axon growth cone migration. This matrix, paradoxically, consists of both permissive and inhibitory proteins. Axons grow into the injury site next and are closely associated with meningeal cells and glial processes extending from cell bodies surrounding the central canal. Later, ependymal tubes lined with glia extend into the lesion as well. Finally, the meningeal cells, axons, and glia move as a unit to close the gap in the spinal cord. After crossing the injury site, axons travel through white matter to reach synaptic targets, and though ascending axons regenerate, sensory axons do not appear to be among them. This entire regenerative process occurs even in the presence of an inflammatory response. Conclusions These data reveal, in detail, the cellular and extracellular events that occur during newt spinal cord regeneration after a transection injury and uncover an important role for meningeal and glial cells in facilitating axon regeneration. Given that these cell types interact to form inhibitory barriers in mammals, identifying the mechanisms underlying their permissive behaviors in the newt will provide new insights for improving spinal cord regeneration in mammals.

Abstract
The periodontal ligaments (PDLs) are soft connective tissue between the cementum covering the tooth root surface and alveolar bone. PDLs are composed of collagen and elastic system fibers, blood vessels, nerves, and various types of cells. Elastic system fibers are generally formed by elastin and microfibrils, but PDLs are mainly composed of the latter. Compared with the well-known function of collagen fibers to support teeth, little is known about the role of elastic system fibers in PDLs. To clarify their role, we examined PDLs of mice under-expressing fibrillin-1 (mgR mice), which is one of the major microfibrillar proteins. The PDLs of homozygous mgR mice showed one-quarter of the elastic system fibers of wild-type (WT) mice. A close association between the elastic system fibers and the capillaries was noted in WT, homozygous and heterozygous mgR mice. Interestingly, capillaries in PDLs of homozygous mice were dilated or enlarged compared with those of WT mice. A comparable level of type I collagen, which is the major collagen in PDLs, was expressed in PDL-cells of mice with three genotypes. However, multi-oriented collagen fiber bundles with a thinner appearance were noted in homozygous mice, whereas well-organized collagen fiber bundles were seen in WT mice. Moreover, there was a marked decrease in periostin expression, which is known to regulate the fibrillogenesis and crosslinking of collagen. These observations suggest that the microfibrillar protein, fibrillin-1, is indispensable for normal tissue architecture and gene expression of PDLs.

Abstract
A major clinical challenge in the reconstruction of large oral and craniofacial defects is the neogenesis of osseous and ligamentous interfacial structures. Currently, oral regenerative medicine strategies are unpredictable for repair of tooth-supporting tissues destroyed as a consequence of trauma, chronic infection or surgical resection. Here, we demonstrate multi-scale computational design and fabrication of composite hybrid polymeric scaffolds for targeted cell transplantation of genetically modified human cells for the formation of human tooth dentin-ligament-bone complexes in vivo. The newly-formed tissues demonstrate the interfacial generation of parallel- and obliquely-oriented fibers that grow and traverse within the polycaprolactone (PCL)-poly(glycolic acid) (PGA) designed constructs forming tooth cementum-like tissue, ligament, and bone structures. This approach offers potential for the clinical implementation of customized periodontal scaffolds that may enable regeneration of multi-tissue interfaces required for oral, dental and craniofacial engineering applications.

Abstract
The extracellular matrix (ECM) is synthesized and secreted by embryonic cells beginning at the earliest stages of development. Our understanding of ECM composition, structure and function has grown considerably in the last several decades and this knowledge has revealed that the extracellular microenvironment is critically important for cell growth, survival, differentiation and morphogenesis. ECM and the cellular receptors that interact with it mediate both physical linkages with the cytoskeleton and the bidirectional flow of information between the extracellular and intracellular compartments. This review considers the range of cell and tissue functions attributed to ECM molecules and summarizes recent findings specific to key developmental processes. The importance of ECM as a dynamic repository for growth factors is highlighted along with more recent studies implicating the 3-dimensional organization and physical properties of the ECM as it relates to cell signaling and the regulation of morphogenetic cell behaviors. Embryonic cell and tissue generated forces and mechanical signals arising from ECM adhesion represent emerging areas of interest in this field.

Abstract
Hydroxyapatite was immobilized on poly(ethylene-co-vinyl alcohol) (EVA) by alternate soaking in aqueous CaCl(2) and Na(2)HPO(4) solutions, followed by carboxyl groups introduction through ozone exposure in order to investigate the nature of the gingival cells, to control their proliferation and properties and to develop a highly organized hybrid implant possessing periodontium. Human gingival cells were cultured on the ozone-exposed EVA, collagen-immobilized EVA, hydroxyapatite-immobilized EVA, and a conventional tissue culture dish. Cell proliferation was highest on the tissue culture dish and lowest on the hydroxyapatite-immobilized EVA. The results of RT-PCR of gingival cells on hydroxyapatite-immobilized EVA shows that mRNAs expressed in bone and periodontal ligament were determined. Furthermore, alkaline phosphatase activity and ELISA assay revealed that gingival cells acquired the osteoblastic properties when cultured on hydroxyapatite-immobilized EVA, suggesting that the periodontium might be regenerated around implants using gingival cells.

Abstract
The fibroblast integrin alpha11beta1 is a key receptor for fibrillar collagens. To study the potential function of alpha11 in vivo, we generated a null allele of the alpha11 gene. Integrin alpha11(-/-) mice are viable and fertile but display dwarfism with increased mortality, most probably due to severely defective incisors. Mutant incisors are characterized by disorganized periodontal ligaments, whereas molar ligaments appear normal. The primary defect in the incisor ligament leads to halted tooth eruption. alpha11beta1-defective embryonic fibroblasts displayed severe defects in vitro, characterized by (i) greatly reduced cell adhesion and spreading on collagen I, (ii) reduced ability to retract collagen lattices, and (iii) reduced cell proliferation. Analysis of matrix metalloproteinase in vitro and in vivo revealed disturbed MMP13 and MMP14 synthesis in alpha11(-/-) cells. We show that alpha11beta1 is the major receptor for collagen I on mouse embryonic fibroblasts and suggest that alpha11beta1 integrin is specifically required on periodontal ligament fibroblasts for cell migration and collagen reorganization to help generate the forces needed for axial tooth movement. Our data show a unique role for alpha11beta1 integrin during tooth eruption.

Abstract
For many years the extracellular matrix was viewed as a benign scaffold for arranging cells within connective tissues, but it is now being redefined as a dynamic, mobile, and flexible key player in defining cellular behavior. Gene targeting, transgene expression, and spontaneous mutations of extracellular matrix proteins in mice have greatly accelerated our mechanistic view of the structural and instructive functions of the extracellular matrix in developmental and regenerative processes. This review summarizes the phenotypes of genetic mouse models carrying mutations in extracellular matrix proteins, with specific emphasis on recent advances. The application of reverse genetics has demonstrated the multifunctionality of matrix proteins in a biological context and, in addition, has brought a novel perspective to the understanding of human pathologies.

Abstract
The periodontal ligament (PDL) is a highly specialized tissue connecting the cementum with the tooth socket bone and affects the life span of the tooth. However, little is known about the precise characteristics and regenerative mechanism of PDL cells because of the absence of specific markers and cell lines. Therefore, we aimed to establish three immortalized human PDL fibroblast cell lines by using simian virus40 T-antigen (SV40T-Ag) and human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) transfection, expecting these cells to have the characteristics of primary cells. The transfected cells were named STPLF. The expression of SV40T-Ag and hTERT in all STPLF lines was verified by using the semi-quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method, stretch PCR analysis, or Western blotting analysis. All STPLF showed stable proliferation at more than 120 population doublings (PD), whereas primary human PDL fibroblasts (HPLF) stopped at 10-20 PD. Characterization by RT-PCR analysis revealed that all STPLF genes mimicked the expression of their respective original HPLF genes. STPLF expressed runt-related transcription factor-2, osterix, alkaline phosphatase, osteopontin, osteocalcin, periostin, receptor activator of NF-kappa B ligand, osteoprotegerin, epidermal growth factor receptor, alpha-smooth muscle actin, and type XII collagen. STPLF stimulated with 50 micro g/ml ascorbic acid and 2 mM beta-glycerophosphate for 4 weeks produced more calcified deposits than did HPLF cultured with the same reagents. These results suggest that each STPLF line retained the characteristics of the respective original HPLF, that STPLF gained increased calcification activity, and that STPLF are helpful tools for studying the biology and regenerative mechanisms of human PDL.

Abstract
Cloned cementoblasts (OCCMs), periodontal ligament fibroblasts (SV-PDLs), and dental follicle (SV-F) cells obtained from mice were used as a tool to study periodontal tissue engineering. OCCM, SV-PDL, and SV-F cells were seeded onto three-dimensional poly lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) scaffolds and cultured with the use of bioreactors or implanted subcutaneously in severe combined immune deficiency (SCID) mice for up to 6 weeks. We explored the behavior of these cells in porous PLGA sponges by cell growth, expression of mineral-associated genes using reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction, and mineralization by histologic analysis in vitro and in vivo. Results indicated that cells attached to PLGA scaffolds under either static or dynamic conditions in vitro. Only OCCM implants, retrieved from both in vitro bioreactors and SCID mice at 3-and 6-weeks post-cell implantation exhibited mineral formation. Types I and XII collagens, osteocalcin, and bone sialoprotein genes were detected in all implants retrieved from SCID mice. These results suggest that delivery of selected cells via PLGA scaffolds may serve as a viable approach for promoting periodontal tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Collagen type XII is a member of the fibril-associated collagens and is characterized by a short triple-helical domain with three extended noncollagenous NC3 domains. Previous studies suggested that collagen XII is a component of cartilage but little is known about its spatial-temporal distribution. This study uses a polyclonal antibody to the purified NC3 domain to investigate its developmental distribution in rat forelimb. Collagen XII was present at the joint interzone on embryonic day 16 (E16d) and restricted to the presumptive articular cartilage by E18d. Labeling of the articular surface intensified as development progressed postnatally (day 1 [1d] to 28d) and extended approximately six cell diameters deep. In juvenile rats, collagen XII antibodies also labeled the longitudinal and transverse septa of stacked chondrocytes in the growth plate. However, collagen XII was not associated at any developmental stage with the cartilaginous secondary ossification center and was only weakly expressed in epiphyseal cartilage. Ultrastructural localization of the NC3 domain epitope showed labeling of the surface of collagen II fibrils both in tissue and in isolated fibrils. The results presented provide further evidence that articular cartilage differs substantially from the underlying epiphyseal cartilage and that different chondrocytic developmental fates are reflected in the composition of their extracellular matrix starting early in development. In addition, collagen XII was distributed in areas of cartilage with more organized fibril orientation and may have a role in promoting alignment or stabilizing such an organization, thereby creating a matrix capable of withstanding load-bearing forces.
