[PMID: 38781742 DOI: 10.1016/j.archoralbio.2024.106008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2024] [Revised: 05/12/2024] [Accepted: 05/20/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Considering fluid stimulation is one of the essential biomechanical signals for periodontal tissues, this study aims to characterizing fluid mechanics response during occlusal loading by a hydro-mechanical coupling model for periodontal ligament. DESIGN Models simulating periodontium with normal bone height and with intraosseous defects were built with three mechanical modules: tooth, periodontal ligament and alveolar bone. Tooth was modeled as linear elastic, and periodontal ligament and alveolar bone as a hydro-mechanical coupling model. Transient analyses under dynamic occlusal loading were performed. Fluid dynamics within periodontal ligament space was simulated and visualized by post-processing module. RESULTS Reciprocating oscillatory flow occurred within the periodontal ligament under occlusal loading. Higher pore pressure and fluid velocity were observed in furcation and apical regions compared to mid-root and cervical regions. Intraosseous defects increased pore pressure and fluid velocity within the periodontal ligament, most significantly near the defect. CONCLUSION Based on the results of the hydro-mechanical coupling model, significant oscillatory fluid motion is observed within the periodontal ligament under occlusal loading. Particularly, higher fluid velocity is evident in the furcation and apical areas. Additionally, Intraosseous defects significantly enhance fluid motion within the periodontal ligament.

Sci Rep 2024; 14:9851. [PMID: 38684732 PMCID: PMC11059396 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-60621-6] [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: 03/02/2024] [Accepted: 04/25/2024] [Indexed: 05/02/2024] Open
Abstract
Static magnetic field (SMF) promoting bone tissue remodeling is a potential non-invasive therapy technique to accelerate orthodontic tooth movement (OTM). The periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs), which are mechanosensitive cells, are essential for force-induced bone remodeling and OTM. However, whether and how the PDLSCs influence the process of inflammatory bone remodeling under mechanical force stimuli in the presence of SMFs remains unclear. In this study, we found that local SMF stimulation significantly enhanced the OTM distance and induced osteoclastogenesis on the compression side of a rat model of OTM. Further experiments with macrophages cultured with supernatants from force-loaded PDLSCs exposed to an SMF showed enhanced osteoclast formation. RNA-seq analysis showed that interleukin-6 (IL-6) was elevated in force-loaded PDLSCs exposed to SMFs. IL-6 expression was also elevated on the pressure side of a rat OTM model with an SMF. The OTM distance induced by an SMF was significantly decreased after injection of the IL-6 inhibitor tocilizumab. These results imply that SMF promotes osteoclastogenesis by inducing force-loaded PDLSCs to secrete the inflammatory cytokine IL-6, which accelerates OTM. This will help to reveal the mechanism of SMF accelerates tooth movement and should be evaluated for application in periodontitis patients.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a widespread oral disease accompanied by uncontrolled inflammation-related tissue destruction. Periodontitis is related to various factors. Among them, occlusal trauma can aggravate the severity of periodontitis and has been attracting a great deal of attention. We systematically searched PubMed and Web of Science databases for related articles. Keywords for the search were "mechanical force", "mechanical stress", "occlusal trauma" and "periodontitis". This review focuses on the effect of mechanical forces on periodontitis and discusses the possible pivotal targets participating in this process. We elucidated and summarized 21 articles that reported on our topic. Several biological processes and pathways that participate in enhancing the inflammatory response to mechanical stress have been studied, including the regulation of osteogenesis and osteoclastic resorption balance, Yes-associated protein signaling, induction of collagen destruction, and regulation of programmed cell death. Mechanical force enhances the process of periodontitis in multiple ways. However, currently, no studies have further examined its underlying mechanism. Understanding the specific roles of mechanical forces may assist in the treatment of periodontitis with traumatic occlusal trauma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate the in vitro effect of the antirheumatic drug methotrexate (MTX) on biomechanically compressed human periodontal ligament fibroblasts (hPDLFs), focusing on the expression of interleukin 6 (IL-6), as its upregulation is relevant to orthodontic tooth movement. METHODS Human PDLFs were subjected to pressure and simultaneously treated with MTX. Cell proliferation, viability and morphology were studied, as was the gene and protein expression of IL-6. RESULTS Compared with that in untreated fibroblasts, IL-6 mRNA expression in mechanically compressed ligament fibroblasts was increased (two to sixfold; ****p < 0.0001). Under compression, hPDLFs exhibited a significantly more expanded shape with an increase of cell extensions. MTX with and without pressure did not affect IL-6 mRNA expression or the morphology of hPDLFs. CONCLUSION MTX has no effect on IL-6 expression in compressed ligament fibroblasts.

Abstract
The periodontal ligament is a crucial tissue that provides support to the periodontium. Situated between the alveolar bone and the tooth root, it consists primarily of fibroblasts, cementoblasts, osteoblasts, osteoclasts, periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs), and epithelial cell rests of Malassez. Fibroblasts, cementoblasts, osteoblasts, and osteoclasts are functionally differentiated cells, whereas PDLSCs are undifferentiated mesenchymal stem cells. The dynamic development of these cells is intricately linked to periodontal changes and homeostasis. Notably, the regulation of programmed cell death facilitates the clearance of necrotic tissue and plays a pivotal role in immune response. However, it also potentially contributes to the loss of periodontal supporting tissues and root resorption. These findings have significant implications for understanding the occurrence and progression of periodontitis, as well as the mechanisms underlying orthodontic root resorption. Further, the regulation of periodontal ligament cell (PDLC) death is influenced by both systemic and local factors. This comprehensive review focuses on recent studies reporting the mechanisms of PDLC death and related factors.

Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23169311. [PMID: 36012576 PMCID: PMC9408951 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23169311] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2022] [Revised: 08/12/2022] [Accepted: 08/17/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
In animal models, the administration of ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) was demonstrated to reduce bone mass and to participate in bone remodeling. Cementoblasts, a cell type embedded in the cementum, are the main cells to produce and mineralize the extracellular matrix. The effect of CNTF on cementoblasts has not yet been addressed. Thus, the goal of this in vitro study was to investigate possible influences of exogenous CNTF on cementogenesis, as well as autophagy regulation and subsequent mechanisms in cementoblasts. Cementoblasts (OCCM-30) were stimulated with exogenous CNTF. Alizarin Red staining was performed to analyze the functional differentiation (mineralization) of OCCM-30 cells. The release of OPG was quantified by ELISA. The expression of cementogenesis markers (RUNX-2, OCN, BMP-7, BSP, and SPON-2) was evaluated by RT-qPCR. Western blotting (WB) was performed for the protein expression of STAT3, COX-2, SHP-2, cPLAα, cPLAβ; ERK1/2, P38, and JNK. The autophagic flux was assessed using WB and RT-qPCR analysis of LC3A/B, Beclin-1, and Atg-5, and the autophagosome was investigated by immunofluorescence staining (IF). The ERK1/2 (FR180204) or STAT3 (sc-202818) antagonist was added, and the cellular response was analyzed using flow cytometry. Exogenous CNTF significantly attenuated mineralized nodule formation, impaired OPG release, and downregulated the mRNA levels of RUNX-2, OCN, BMP-7, and BSP. Moreover, CNTF induced the phosphorylation of STAT3 and activated a transient activation of SHP-2, cPLAβ, ERK1/2, P38, and JNK protein. CNTF also induced autophagosome formation and promoted autophagy-associated gene and protein expressions. Additionally, the inhibition of ERK1/2 or STAT3 reversed a CNTF-induced mineralization impairment and had regulatory effects on CNTF-induced autophagosome formation. Our data revealed that CNTF acts as a potent inhibitor of cementogenesis, and it can trigger autophagy, in part by ERK1/2 and STAT3 commitment in the cementoblasts. Thus, it may play an important role in inducing or facilitating inflammatory root resorption during orthodontic tooth movement.

Abstract
Platelet transfusion is a life-saving therapy to prevent bleeding; however, the availability of platelets for transfusion is limited by the markedly short shelf life owing to the development of platelet storage lesions (PSLs). The mechanism of PSLs remains obscure. Dissection of the intracellular biological changes in stored platelets may help to reduce PSLs and improve platelet transfusion efficiency. In the present study, we explore the changes of stored platelets at room temperature under constant agitation. We found that platelets during storage showed an increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation accompanied with receptor shedding, apoptosis, and diminished platelet aggregation. ROS scavenger reduced platelet shedding but also impaired platelet aggregation. Autophagy is a conserved catabolic process that sequesters protein aggregates and damaged organelles into lysosomes for degradation and platelets’ own intact autophagic system. We revealed that there exist a stable autophagic flux in platelets at the early stage of storage, and the autophagic flux in platelets perished after long-term storage. Treatment stored platelets with rapamycin, which stimulates autophagy in eukaryotic cells, markedly ameliorated PSLs, and improved platelet aggregation in response to extracellular stimuli.
