Abstract
PURPOSE Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease that results in the loss of periodontal tissue. The endocannabinoid system has anti-inflammatory properties and displays considerable potential for tissue regeneration. In this study, we aimed to explore whether the activation of this system can alleviate or reverse the inflammatory phenotype of human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) induced by exposure to the inflammagen lipopolysaccharide (LPS). METHODS We investigated the effects of activating specific cannabinoid receptors (CB1 and CB2) on the inflammatory phenotype of LPS-stimulated hPDLSCs. The exogenous ligands WIN55,212-2 and JWH-133 were employed to target the cannabinoid receptors. We conducted a thorough assessment of cell proliferation, metabolic activity, and adipogenic, osteogenic, and chondrogenic differentiation potential. Additionally, we measured cytokine release using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. RESULTS Exposure to Porphyromonas gingivalis lipopolysaccharide (Pg-LPS) caused an increase in cell proliferation while decreasing metabolic activity. While this exposure did not influence adipogenic or chondrogenic differentiation, it did result in reduced osteogenesis. Additionally, LPS induced the release of interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8, and monocyte chemoattractant protein 1. Immunolabeling revealed the presence of CB1 and CB2 on the cellular membrane, with these receptors playing distinct roles in hPDLSCs. The CB1 agonist WIN55,212-2 was found to increase metabolic activity and promote adipogenic differentiation, whereas the CB2 agonist JWH-133 promoted cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation. When hPDLSCs were co-exposed to Pg-LPS and CB ligands, JWH-133 slightly ameliorated the inhibition of osteogenic differentiation and suppressed the release of inflammatory cytokines. CONCLUSIONS This study clarifies the effects of specific CB receptor activation on hPDLCs and the inflammatory phenotype. Stimulation of the endocannabinoid system through the manipulation of endogenous or the application of exogenous cannabinoids in vivo may represent a potent therapeutic option for combating periodontal inflammatory disorders.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Maintaining the vitality and functionality of dental pulp is paramount for tooth integrity, longevity, and homeostasis. Aiming to treat irreversible pulpitis and necrosis, there has been a paradigm shift from conventional root canal treatment towards regenerative endodontic therapy. AIM OF REVIEW This extensive and multipart review presents crucial laboratory and practical issues related to pulp-dentin complex regeneration aimed towards advancing clinical translation of regenerative endodontic therapy and enhancing human life quality. KEY SCIENTIFIC CONCEPTS OF REVIEW In this multipart review paper, we first present a panorama of emerging potential tissue engineering strategies for pulp-dentin complex regeneration from cell transplantation and cell homing perspectives, emphasizing the critical regenerative components of stem cells, biomaterials, and conducive microenvironments. Then, this review provides details about current clinically practiced pulp regenerative/reparative approaches, including direct pulp capping and root revascularization, with a specific focus on the remaining hurdles and bright prospects in developing such therapies. Next, special attention was devoted to discussing the innovative biomimetic perspectives opened in establishing functional tissues by employing exosomes and cell aggregates, which will benefit the clinical translation of dental pulp engineering protocols. Finally, we summarize careful consideration that should be given to basic research and clinical applications of regenerative endodontics. In particular, this review article highlights significant challenges associated with residual infection and inflammation and identifies future insightful directions in creating antibacterial and immunomodulatory microenvironments so that clinicians and researchers can comprehensively understand crucial clinical aspects of regenerative endodontic procedures.

Abstract
The application of bioengineering techniques for achieving bone regeneration in the oral environment is an increasingly prominent field. However, the clinical use of synthetic materials carries certain risks. The liquid phase of concentrated growth factor (LPCGF), as a biologically derived material, exhibits superior biocompatibility. In this study, LPCGF was employed as a tissue engineering scaffold, hosting dental follicle cells (DFCs) to facilitate bone regeneration. Both in vivo and in vitro experimental results demonstrate that this platform significantly enhances the expression of osteogenic markers in DFCs, such as alkaline phosphatase (ALP), runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), and type I collagen (Col1a1). Simultaneously, it reduces the expression of inflammation-related genes, particularly interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interleukin-8 (IL-8), thereby alleviating the negative impact of the inflammatory microenvironment on DFCs. Further investigation into potential mechanisms reveals that this process is regulated over time by the WNT pathway. Our research results demonstrate that LPCGF, with its favorable physical characteristics, holds great potential as a scaffold. It can effectively carry DFCs, thereby providing an optimal initial environment for bone regeneration. Furthermore, LPCGF endeavors to closely mimic the mechanisms of bone healing post-trauma to facilitate bone formation. This offers new perspectives and insights into bone regeneration engineering.

Abstract
BACKGROUND MicroRNAs are differentially expressed in periodontitis tissues. They are involved in cellular responses to inflammation and can be used as markers for diagnosing periodontitis. Microarray analysis showed that the expression level of microRNA-671-5p in periodontal tissues of patients with periodontitis was increased. In this study, we investigated the mechanism of action of microRNA-671-5p in human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) under inflammatory conditions. METHODS AND RESULTS HPDLSCs were treated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to establish an inflammation model. The cell survival rate was determined using the cell counting kit-8 (CCK8). Real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and western blot analyses were used to detect the expression of microRNA-671-5p and dual-specificity phosphatase (DUSP) 8 proteins, respectively, Interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1β, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α were detected using qRT-PCR and Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). A dual-luciferase reporter system was employed to determine the relationship between micoRNA-671-5p and DUSP8 expression. Activation of the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway was confirmed using western blot analysis. Following the treatment of hPDLSCs with LPS, the expression levels of microRNA-671-5p in hPDLSCs were increased, cell viability decreased, and the expression of inflammatory factors displayed an increasing trend. MicroRNA-671-5p targets and binds to DUSP8. Silencing microRNA-671-5p or overexpressing DUSP8 can improve cell survival rate and reduce inflammatory responses. When DUSP8 was overexpressed, the expression of p-p38 was reduced. CONCLUSIONS microRNA-671-5p targets DUSP8/p38 MAPK pathway to regulate LPS-induced proliferation and inflammation in hPDLSCs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to investigate the effects of various toll-like receptor (TLR) and C-type lectin receptor (CLR) ligands on osteogenic differentiation in human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs). METHODS hDPSCs were cultured and treated with various concentrations (0.01, 0.1, 1.0, and 10 µg/mL) of TLR or CLR agonists (PG-LPS, E.coli LPS, poly(I:C), Pam3CSK4, Furfurman, and Zymosan). Cell viability was determined by MTT assay. The effects of TLR and CLR agonists on osteogenic differentiation of hDPSCs were measured by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, Alizarin Red S staining, and Von Kossa staining. In addition, the mRNA expression of osteogenesis-related genes (ALP, COL1A1, RUNX2, OSX, OCN and DMP1) was examined by RT-qPCR. A non-parametric analysis was employed for the statistical analyses. The statistically significant difference was considered when p < 0.05. RESULTS Treatment with TLR and CLR agonists was associated with an increase in hDPSCs' colony-forming unit ability. Compared with the control group, TLR and CLR agonists significantly inhibited the osteogenic differentiation of hDPSCs by decreasing the ALP activity, mineralised nodule formation, and mRNA expression levels of osteogenesis-related genes (ALP, COL1A1, RUNX2, OSX, OCN and DMP1). The inhibition of TRIF but not Akt signalling rescued the effects of TLR and CLR agonist attenuating hDPSCs' mineralisation. CONCLUSIONS The activation of TLRs or CLRs exhibited an inhibitory effect on osteogenic differentiation of hDPSCs via the TRIF-dependent signalling pathway.

Int J Mol Sci 2023; 25:42.

Abstract
Periodontitis is an oral infectious disease caused by various pathogenic bacteria, such as Porphyromonas gingivalis. Although probiotics and their cellular components have demonstrated positive effects on periodontitis, the beneficial impact of peptidoglycan (PGN) from probiotic Lactobacillus remains unclear. Therefore, our study sought to investigate the inhibitory effect of PGN isolated from L. reuteri (LrPGN) on P. gingivalis-induced inflammatory responses. Pretreatment with LrPGN significantly inhibited the production of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, and CCL20 in RAW 264.7 cells induced by P. gingivalis lipopolysaccharide (LPS). LrPGN reduced the phosphorylation of PI3K/Akt and MAPKs, as well as NF-κB activation, which were induced by P. gingivalis LPS. Furthermore, LrPGN dose-dependently reduced the expression of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), indicating that LrPGN inhibits periodontal inflammation by regulating cellular signaling cascades through TLR4 suppression. Notably, LrPGN exhibited stronger inhibition of P. gingivalis LPS-induced production of inflammatory mediators compared to insoluble LrPGN and proteinase K-treated LrPGN. Moreover, MDP, a minimal bioactive PGN motif, also dose-dependently inhibited P. gingivalis LPS-induced inflammatory mediators, suggesting that MDP-like molecules present in the LrPGN structure may play a crucial role in the inhibition of inflammatory responses. Collectively, these findings suggest that LrPGN can mitigate periodontal inflammation and could be a useful agent for the prevention and treatment of periodontitis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the effect of proanthocyanidin (PA) on osteogenesis mediated by periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) and endogenous alveolar bone regeneration. BACKGROUND Leveraging the osteogenic potential of resident stem cells is a promising strategy for alveolar bone regeneration. PA has been reported to be effective in osteogenesis. However, the effect and mechanism of PA on the osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs remain elusive. METHODS Human PDLSCs were treated with various doses of PA to assess the cell proliferation using Cell Counting Kit-8. The osteogenic differentiation ability was detected by qRT-PCR analysis, western blot analysis, Alizarin red S staining, and Alkaline Phosphatase staining. The level of autophagy was evaluated by confocal laser scanning microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and western blot analysis. RNA sequencing was utilized to screen the potential signaling pathway. The alveolar bone defect model of rats was created to observe endogenous bone regeneration. RESULTS PA activated intracellular autophagy in PDLSCs, resulting in enhanced osteogenic differentiation. Moreover, this effect could be abolished by the autophagy inhibitor 3-Methyladenine. Mechanistically, the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway was negatively correlated with PA-mediated autophagy activation. Lastly, PA promoted the alveolar bone regeneration in vivo, and this effect was reversed when the autophagy process was blocked. CONCLUSION PA may activate autophagy by inhibiting PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway to promote the osteogenesis of PDLSCs and enhance endogenous alveolar bone regeneration.

Abstract
Introduction Bacterial persistence is considered one of the main causal factors for regenerative endodontic treatment (RET) failure in immature permanent teeth. This interference is claimed to be caused by the interaction of bacteria that reside in the root canal with the stem cells that are one of the essentials for RET. The aim of the study was to investigate whether prolonged exposure of stem cells from the apical papilla (SCAP) to bacterial remnants of Fusobacterium nucleatum, Actinomyces gerensceriae, Slackia exigua, Enterococcus faecalis, Peptostreptococcaceae yurii, commonly found in infected traumatized root canals, and the probiotic bacteria Lactobacillus gasseri and Limosilactobacillus reuteri, can alter SCAP's inflammatory response and mineralization potential. Methods To assess the effect of bacterial remnants on SCAP, we used UV-C-inactivated bacteria (as cell wall-associated virulence factors) and bacterial DNA. Histochemical staining using Osteoimage Mineralization Assay and Alizarin Red analysis was performed to study SCAP mineralization, while inflammatory and osteo/odontogenic-related responses of SCAPs were assessed with Multiplex ELISA. Results We showed that mineralization promotion was greater with UV C-inactivated bacteria compared to bacterial DNA. Immunofluorescence analysis detected that the early mineralization marker alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was increased by the level of E. coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS) positive control in the case of UV-C-inactivated bacteria; meanwhile, DNA treatment decreased the level of ALP compared to the positive control. SCAP's secretome assessed with Multiplex ELISA showed the upregulation of pro-inflammatory factors IL-6, IL-8, GM-CSF, IL-1b, neurotrophic factor BDNF, and angiogenic factor VEGF, induced by UV-C-killed bacteria. Discussion The results suggest that long term stimulation (for 21 days) of SCAP with UV-C-inactivated bacteria stimulate their mineralization and inflammatory response, while DNA influence has no such effect, which opens up new ideas about the nature of RET failure.

Abstract
In the present study, we aimed to examine the inhibition of genomic DNA from Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (LpDNA) on Porphyromonas gingivalis lipopolysaccharide (PgLPS)-induced inflammatory responses in RAW264.7 cells. Pretreatment with LpDNA for 15 h significantly inhibited PgLPS-induced mRNA expression and protein secretion of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1. LpDNA pretreatment also reduced the mRNA expression of Toll-like receptor (TLR)2 and TLR4. Furthermore, LpDNA inhibited the phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) and the activation of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) induced by PgLPS. Taken together, these findings demonstrate that LpDNA attenuates PgLPS-induced inflammatory responses by regulating MAPKs and NF-κB signaling pathways through the suppression of TLR2 and TLR4 expression.

Balbinot GS, Leitune VCB, Zatta KC, Benin T, Guterres SS, Collares FM. Controlled drug delivery from metronidazole-containing bioactive endodontic cements. Dent Mater 2023; 39:839-845. [PMID: 37500315 DOI: 10.1016/j.dental.2023.07.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/01/2023] [Revised: 07/17/2023] [Accepted: 07/18/2023] [Indexed: 07/29/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aims to formulate metronidazole liquid nanocapsules (MTZLNC) and evaluate their effect on the physicochemical and biological properties of calcium silicate-based bioactive endodontic cements, in vitro. METHODS A MTZLNC suspension was formulated by deposition of the preformed polymer and characterized by laser diffraction and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Calcium silicate (CS) was mixed with a radiopaque agent (calcium tungstate - CaWO4), at 10 wt%, to produce the cement powder. Cements liquids were used with two concentrations of MTZLNC suspension: 0.3 mg/ml and 0.15 mg/ml. Cements prepared with distilled water were used as the control. The radiopacity, setting time, and flow were evaluated following ISO 6876:2012. The compressive strength analysis was conducted according to ISO 9917:2007. pH and mineral deposition were evaluated after immersion in simulated body fluid (SBF). Cell behavior was evaluated by the viability of pre-osteoblastic cells and pulp fibroblasts by SRB and MTT and the antibacterial activity against Enterococcus faecalis was analyzed immediately and after nine months of water storage. RESULTS MTZLNCs were formulated with a median diameter of 148 nm and 83.44 % load efficiency. Increased flow and reduced strength were observed for both MTZLNCs concentrations. The incorporation of MTZLNCs maintained the ability of cements to increase pH media and promote mineral deposition over the samples, without promoting cytotoxicity. A 2 log10 reduction in E. faecalis CFU was observed immediately and after nine months in water storage. CONCLUSION The formulation of MTZLNCs allowed the development of antibacterial calcium silicate-based-cements with suitable physicochemical properties and bioactivity, with a reduction in mechanical strength. The 0.3 mg/ml concentration in cements liquid promoted effective and sustainable antibacterial activity.

Abstract
Objectives Casein kinase 2 interacting protein-1 (CKIP-1) is a versatile player involved in various biological processes. However, whether CKIP-1 mediates the osteogenic/cementogenic differentiation of periodontal ligament cells (PDLCs) under Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg) stimulation remains unknown. Material and Methods The effect of Pg on PDLC differentiation was first verified. CKIP-1 expression in Pg-infected PDLCs or in PDL of apical periodontitis (AP) mice was detected. The changes of CKIP-1 during PDLC differentiation was also determined. PDLC differentiation capacity in CKIP-1 knockout (KO) mice and CKIP-1-silenced PDLCs with or without Pg stimulation were further studied. Inhibitor was finally applied to verify the involvement of p38 signaling pathway in PDLC differentiation. Results The suppression effect of Pg on PDLC differentiation was demonstrated. CKIP-1 increased in the PDL of AP mice and Pg-induced PDLCs, and decreased gradually during PDLC differentiation. Increased OSX and RUNX2 expression in PDL were observed in CKIP-1 KO mice. Also, CKIP-1 silencing facilitated and rescued Pg-inhibited PDLC differentiation. Inhibitor for p38 signaling pathway blocked CKIP-1 silencing-facilitated PDLC differentiation. Conclusions CKIP-1 mediated the osteogenic/cementogenic differentiation of PDLCs partially through p38 signaling pathway, which may provide evidence for the regeneration of periodontal hard tissues damaged by Pg.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Clinical experience indicates that wounds in alveolar bone and periodontal tissue heal faster and more efficiently in the maxilla compared with the mandible. Since stem cells are known to have a decisive influence on wound healing and tissue regeneration, the aim of this study was to determine whether differences in proliferation and differentiation of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSC) from upper (u-PDLSC) and lower jaw (l-PDLSC) contribute to the enhanced wound healing in the maxilla. METHODS u-PDLSC and l-PDLSC from the same donor were harvested from the periodontal ligament of extracted human maxillary and mandibular third molars. Cell differentiation potential was assessed by analyzing stem cell markers, proliferation rate, and multilineage differentiation among each other and bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSC). Successful differentiation of PDLSC and MSC toward osteoblasts, adipocytes, and chondrocytes was analyzed via reverse transcriptase-quantitative polymerase chain reaction and histochemical staining (Alizarin Red, Oil Red O, Toluidine Blue). RESULTS u-PDLSC and l-PDLSC expressed the MSC-markers CD73+ , CD90+ , and CD105+ and lacked expression of CD34- and CD45- . Proliferation was significantly higher in u-PDLSC than in l-PDLSC, regardless of the culture conditions. Osteogenic (ALP, RunX2, and osteocalcin) and chondrogenic (SOX9 and ACAN) related gene expression as well as staining intensities were significantly higher in u-PDLSC than in l-PDLSC. No difference in adipogenic differentiation was observed. CONCLUSION u-PDLSC showed a significantly higher proliferative and differentiation potential than l-PDLSC, offering a possible cell-based explanation for the differences in periodontal wound healing efficacy between maxilla and mandible.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Periodontitis is a chronic infectious disease of periodontal support tissue caused by microorganisms in dental plaque, which causes alveolar bone resorption and tooth loss. Periodontitis treatment goals include prevention of alveolar bone resorption and promotion of periodontal regeneration. We previously found that granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) was involved in periodontitis-related alveolar bone resorption through induction of an immune response and subsequent destruction of periodontal tissue. However, the mechanisms underlying the effects of G-CSF on abnormal bone remodeling have not yet been fully elucidated. Human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) are major modulators of osteogenic differentiation in periodontal tissues. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigated whether G-CSF acts effects on hPDLSC proliferation and osteogenic differentiation, as well as periodontal tissue repair. METHODS hPDLSCs were cultured and identified by short tandem repeat analysis. The expression patterns and locations of G-CSF receptor (G-CSFR) on hPDLSCs were detected by immunofluorescence analysis. The effects of G-CSF on hPDLSCs in a lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammatory microenvironment were investigated. Specifically, Cell-Counting Kit 8 (CCK8) and Alizarin red staining were used to examine hPDLSC proliferation and osteogenic differentiation; reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction was performed to detect the expression patterns of osteogenesis-related genes (alkaline phosphatase [ALP], runt-related transcription factor 2 [Runx2], and osteocalcin [OCN]) in hPDLSCs; and Western blotting was used to detect the expression patterns of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) and protein kinase B (Akt) of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. RESULTS hPDLSCs exhibited a typical spindle-shaped morphology and good clonogenic ability. G-CSFR was mostly localized on the cell surface membrane. Analyses showed that G-CSF inhibited hPDLSC proliferation. Also, in the LPS-induced inflammatory microenvironment, G-CSF inhibited hPDLSC osteogenic differentiation and reduced the expression levels of osteogenesis-related genes. G-CSF increased the protein expression levels of hPDLSC pathway components p-PI3K and p-Akt. CONCLUSIONS We found that G-CSFR was expressed on hPDLSCs. Furthermore, G-CSF inhibited hPDLSC osteogenic differentiation in vitro in the LPS-induced inflammatory microenvironment.

Ding G, Mu-Guo S. Inhibition of Wnt11 impairs the osteogenesis and aggravates the inflammatory response of human mesenchymal stem cells under LPS-induced inflammatory condition. Biochem Biophys Res Commun 2023; 661:82-88.

Abstract
In infectious bone defect, osteogenesis is very particularly important for treating. Currently, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) become a promising treatment protocol in clinical practice. In infectious environment, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) not only affects the osteogenic differentiation of MSCs, but also incurs inflammatory reaction from the host or cells and prompts the secretion of inflammatory cytokines. Wnt11 plays an important role of enhancing osteogenic ability of MSCs in treating bone infectious animal model in vivo. However, whether Wnt11 enhances the osteogenic capacity or influences the inflammatory reaction under inflammatory condition mediated by LPS in vitro remains unknown. In this study, we investigated the role of Wnt11 on the osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) and the effect on the inflammatory reaction induced by LPS. Effects of Wnt11 on the osteogenic capacity of BM-MSCs and on the inhibition of inflammatory reaction induced by LPS were evaluated by Wnt11 RNAi assay, Alizarin staining, quantitative RT-PCR test, ALP activity test and ELISA assays. The results showed inhibiting Wnt11 expression exacerbated the expression of osteogenic differentiation related genes and decreased the mineral deposits formation. Moreover, inhibiting Wnt11 expression also exacerbated the inflammatory factors release, indicating Wnt11 might play an important role of enhancing the osteogenic differentiation of BM-MSCs and inhibiting the inflammatory reaction induced by LPS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the present study was to assess if the endocannabinoid system is involved differently in patients with recurrent and non-recurrent periodontal disease and if in sites that have a predisposition for reactivation, levels of anandamide (AEA) change after periodontal therapy. BACKGROUND Periodontal disease (PD) may be due to a dysregulation of the endocannabinoid system. METHODS Periodontal patients were recruited, treated for PD and monitored. Gingival samples from these patients with recurrent (n = 10) and non-recurrent (n = 10) periodontal disease were harvested before and after treatment and compared to those of periodontally healthy (n = 10) subjects. Levels of CB1 and CB2, AEA and CBs receptor activation were assessed in healthy and inflamed samples using immunohistochemistry, chromatography and autoradiography. In healed sites, AEA levels were also assessed. RESULTS The number of CBs in inflamed sites of recurrent patients was significantly higher than in those with non-recurrent disease and also higher than those in healthy subjects. Inflamed sites of recurrent patients had significantly lower CBs receptor activation than those of healthy subjects. Levels of AEA in inflamed sites of non-recurrent patients were significantly higher than those found both in inflamed recurrent sites and in healthy sites. Otherwise, the amount of AEA in healthy subjects and recurrent inflamed sites was similar. After periodontal therapy, levels of AEA were significantly lower in both periodontal groups. In recurrent sites, they resulted significantly lower than in non-recurrent and even in healthy subjects. CONCLUSIONS The endocannabinoid system seems involved differently in subjects with recurrent and non-recurrent periodontal disease.

Abstract
Periodontitis is the sixth most common chronic inflammatory disease, destroying the tissues supporting the teeth. There are three distinct stages in periodontitis: infection, inflammation, and tissue destruction, where each stage has its own characteristics and hence its line of treatment. Illuminating the underlying mechanisms of alveolar bone loss is vital in the treatment of periodontitis to allow for subsequent reconstruction of the periodontium. Bone cells, including osteoclasts, osteoblasts, and bone marrow stromal cells, classically were thought to control bone destruction in periodontitis. Lately, osteocytes were found to assist in inflammation-related bone remodeling besides being able to initiate physiological bone remodeling. Furthermore, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) either transplanted or homed exhibit highly immunosuppressive properties, such as preventing monocytes/hematopoietic precursor differentiation and downregulating excessive release of inflammatory cytokines. In the early stages of bone regeneration, an acute inflammatory response is critical for the recruitment of MSCs, controlling their migration, and their differentiation. Later during bone remodeling, the interaction and balance between proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines could regulate MSC properties, resulting in either bone formation or bone resorption. This narrative review elaborates on the important interactions between inflammatory stimuli during periodontal diseases, bone cells, MSCs, and subsequent bone regeneration or bone resorption. Understanding these concepts will open up new possibilities for promoting bone regeneration and hindering bone loss caused by periodontal diseases.

Abstract
AIM To examine the immunomodulatory effect of exosomes originating from gingival mesenchymal stem cells (GMSC-Exo) on periodontal bone regeneration and its role in the regulation of the nuclear-factor kappaB (NF-κB) and Wnt/β-catenin pathways in the periodontal inflammatory microenvironment. MATERIALS AND METHODS First, periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) were treated with GMSC-Exo or Porphyromonas gingivalis-derived lipopolysaccharide (P.g-LPS) in vitro. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) and western blot were carried out to detect the expressions of osteogenic differentiation-related factors in cells. Further, PDLSCs were treated with P.g-LPS or inhibitors. The expression of NF-κB pathway-related factors as well as of Wnt/β-catenin pathway-related factors were detected by qRT-PCR and western blot. RESULTS GMSC-Exo treatment promoted the expression of osteogenic differentiation-related factors within PDLSCs in both normal and inflammatory environments. Further investigations showed that GMSC-Exo could also inhibit the P.g-LPS-induced activation of the NF-κB pathway, leading to the up-regulation of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. When the Wnt/β-catenin signalling was blocked, the inhibitory effect of GMSC-Exo on the NF-κB pathway was abolished. CONCLUSIONS GMSC-Exo could promote the osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs. There could be mutually exclusive regulatory roles between the NF-κB and Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathways in a periodontal inflammatory environment. GMSC-Exo exhibited an effective cross-regulation ability for both pathways.

Abstract
The macrolide erythromycin (ERM) inhibits excessive neutrophil accumulation and bone resorption in inflammatory tissues. We previously reported that the expression of developmental endothelial locus-1 (DEL-1), an endogenous anti-inflammatory factor induced by ERM, is involved in ERM action. Furthermore, DEL-1 is involved in the induction of bone regeneration. Therefore, in this study, we investigated whether ERM exerts an osteoblastogenic effect by upregulating DEL-1 under inflammatory conditions. We performed in vitro cell-based mechanistic analyses and used a model of Porphyromonas gingivalis lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced periodontitis to evaluate how ERM restores osteoblast activity. In vitro, P. gingivalis LPS stimulation suppressed osteoblast differentiation and bone formation. However, ERM treatment combined with P. gingivalis LPS stimulation upregulated osteoblast differentiation-related factors and Del1, indicating that osteoblast differentiation was restored. Alveolar bone resorption and gene expression were evaluated in a periodontitis model, and the results confirmed that ERM treatment increased DEL-1 expression and suppressed bone loss by increasing the expression of osteoblast-associated factors. In conclusion, ERM restores bone metabolism homeostasis in inflammatory environments possibly via the induction of DEL-1.

Regulation of the Host Immune Microenvironment in Periodontitis and Periodontal Bone Remodeling. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24043158. [PMID: 36834569 PMCID: PMC9967675 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24043158] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2023] [Revised: 01/27/2023] [Accepted: 02/03/2023] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
The periodontal immune microenvironment is a delicate regulatory system that involves a variety of host immune cells including neutrophils, macrophages, T cells, dendritic cells and mesenchymal stem cells. The dysfunction or overactivation of any kind of local cells, and eventually the imbalance of the entire molecular regulatory network, leads to periodontal inflammation and tissue destruction. In this review, the basic characteristics of various host cells in the periodontal immune microenvironment and the regulatory network mechanism of host cells involved in the pathogenesis of periodontitis and periodontal bone remodeling are summarized, with emphasis on the immune regulatory network that regulates the periodontal microenvironment and maintains a dynamic balance. Future strategies for the clinical treatment of periodontitis and periodontal tissue regeneration need to develop new targeted synergistic drugs and/or novel technologies to clarify the regulatory mechanism of the local microenvironment. This review aims to provide clues and a theoretical basis for future research in this field.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a widespread inflammatory condition, characterized by a progressive deterioration of the supporting structures of the teeth. Due to the complexity of periodontal tissue and the surrounding inflammatory microenvironment, the repair of lesions at this level represents a continuous challenge. The regeneration of periodontal tissues is considered a promising strategy. Stem cells have remarkable properties, such as immunomodulatory potential, proliferation, migration, and multilineage differentiation. Thus, they can be used to repair tissue damage and reduce inflammation, potentially leading to periodontal regeneration. Among the stem cells used for periodontal regeneration, we studied dental mesenchymal stem cells (DMSCs), non-dental stem cells, and induced pluripotent stem cells (IPSCs). Although these cells have well documented important physiological characteristics, their use in contemporary practice to repair the affected periodontium is still a challenge.

Abstract
Dental mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are characterized by unlimited self-renewal ability and high multidirectional differentiation potential. Since dental MSCs can be easily isolated and exhibit a high capability to differentiate into odontogenic cells, they are considered as attractive therapeutic agents in regenerative dentistry. Recently, MSC-derived extracellular vesicles (MSC-EVs) have attracted widespread attention as carriers for cell-free therapy due to their potential functions. Many studies have shown that MSC-EVs can mediate microenvironment at tissue damage site, and coordinate the regeneration process. Additionally, MSC-EVs can mediate intercellular communication, thus affecting the phenotypes and functions of recipient cells. In this review, we mainly summarized the types of MSCs that could be potentially applied in regenerative dentistry, the possible molecular cargos of MSC-EVs, and the major effects of MSC-EVs on the therapeutic induction of osteogenic differentiation.

Abstract
Postbiotics are functional biological compounds, such as bacterial lysates (BLs) released from probiotic bacteria. Although postbiotics exert various bioactivities, the anti-inflammatory and antibiofilm activities of BLs against oral pathogenic bacteria have not been investigated. In the present study, pretreatment with BLs extracted from Lactobacillus plantarum and L. rhamnosus GG suppressed the mRNA and protein expression levels of inflammatory mediators induced by the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of Porphyromonas gingivalis in RAW 264.7 cells. Both BLs attenuated P. gingivalis LPS-induced phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) and activation of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), suggesting that BLs inhibit periodontal inflammatory responses by regulating the MAPK and NF-κB signaling pathways. Moreover, both BLs interfered with biofilm formation by Streptococcus mutans; however, they did not eradicate the established S. mutans biofilm. Furthermore, both BLs downregulated gtfB, gtfC, and gtfD responsible for biofilm formation by S. mutans, suggesting that BLs reduce the synthesis of extracellular polysaccharide and thereby reduce S. mutans biofilm. Taken together, these results suggest that BLs of L. plantarum and L. rhamnosus GG can attenuate periodontal inflammation and dental caries and thus contribute to the improvement of oral health.

Abstract
Periodontal diseases include periodontitis and gingival overgrowth. Periodontitis is a bacterial infectious disease, and its pathological cascade is regulated by many inflammatory cytokines secreted by immune or tissue cells, such as interleukin-6. In contrast, gingival overgrowth develops as a side effect of specific drugs, such as immunosuppressants, anticonvulsants, and calcium channel blockers. Human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs) are the most abundant cells in gingival connective tissue, and human periodontal ligament fibroblasts (HPLFs) are located between the teeth and alveolar bone. HGFs and HPLFs are both crucial for the remodeling and homeostasis of periodontal tissue, and their roles in the pathogenesis of periodontal diseases have been examined for 25 years. Various responses by HGFs or HPLFs contribute to the progression of periodontal diseases. This review summarizes the biological effects of HGFs and HPLFs on the pathogenesis of periodontal diseases.

Hydrogel, a functional polymer material, has emerged as a promising technology for therapies for periodontal diseases. It has the potential to mimic the extracellular matrix and provide suitable attachment sites and growth environments for periodontal cells, with high biocompatibility, water retention, and slow release. In this paper, we have summarized the main components of hydrogel in periodontal tissue regeneration and have discussed the primary construction strategies of hydrogels as a reference for future work. Hydrogels provide an ideal microenvironment for cells and play a significant role in periodontal tissue engineering. The development of intelligent and multifunctional hydrogels for periodontal tissue regeneration is essential for future research.

Erythropoietin Activates Autophagy to Regulate Apoptosis and Angiogenesis of Periodontal Ligament Stem Cells via the Akt/ERK1/2/BAD Signaling Pathway under Inflammatory Microenvironment. Stem Cells Int 2022; 2022:9806887.

Abstract
Background. Angiogenic tissue engineering is a vital problem waiting to be settled for periodontal regeneration. Erythropoietin, a multieffect cytokine, has been reported as a protective factor for cell fate. According to our previous study, erythropoietin has a significantly angiogenic effect on periodontal ligament stem cells. To further explore its potential effects and mechanism, we studied biological behaviors of periodontal ligament stem cells under inflammatory microenvironment induced by different concentrations (0, 10, 20, 50, and 100 ng/mL) of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and examined how different concentrations (0, 5, 10, 20, and 50 IU/mL) of erythropoietin changed biological behaviors of periodontal ligament stem cells. Materials and Methods. Cell Counting Kit-8 was used for cell proliferation assay. Annexin V-PI-FITC was used for cell apoptosis through flow cytometry. Matrigel plug was adopted to measure the angiogenic capacity in vitro. RNA sequencing was used to detect the downstream signaling pathway. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction was conducted to examine mRNA expression level. Western blot and immunofluorescence were applied to testify the protein expression level. Results. Periodontal ligament stem cells upregulated apoptosis and suppressed autophagy and angiogenesis under inflammatory microenvironment. Erythropoietin could activate autophagy to rescue apoptosis and angiogenesis levels of periodontal ligament stem cells through the Akt/Erk1/2/BAD signaling pathway under inflammatory microenvironment. Conclusions. Erythropoietin could protect periodontal ligament stem cells from inflammatory microenvironment, which provided a novel theory for periodontal regeneration.

Abstract
Apical Lesions of Endodontic Origin (ALEO) are initiated by polymicrobial endodontic canal infection. Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg) and Porphyromonas endodontalis (Pe) lipopolysaccharides (LPS) can induce a pro-inflammatory macrophage response through their recognition by TLR2 and TLR4. However, polarization responses induced by Pg and/or Pe LPS in macrophages are not fully understood. We aimed to characterize the polarization profiles of macrophages differentiated from THP-1 cells following Pg and/or Pe LPS stimulation from reference strain and clinical isolates. A modified LPS purification protocol was implemented and the electrophoretic LPS profiles were characterized. THP-1 human monocytes differentiated to macrophages were stimulated with Pg and Pe LPS. Polarization profiles were characterized through cell surface markers and secreted cytokines levels after 24 h of stimulation. TLR2 and TLR4 cell surfaces and transcriptional levels were determined after 24 or 2 h of LPS stimulation, respectively. LPS from Pg induced a predominant M1 profile in macrophages evidenced by changes in the expression of the surface marker CD64 and pro-inflammatory cytokine profiles, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and IL-12. Pe LPS was unable to induce a significant response. TLR2 and TLR4 expressions were neither modified by Pg or Pe LPS. Pg LPS, but not Pe LPS, induced a macrophage M1 Profile.

Abstract
Periodontitis is the sixth most prevalent disease, and almost 3.5 billion people are affected globally by dental caries and periodontal diseases. The microbial shift from a symbiotic microbiota to a dysbiotic microbiota in the oral cavity generally initiates periodontal disease. Pathogens in the periodontal microenvironment interact with stem cells to modulate their regenerative potential. Therefore, this review focuses on the interaction between microbes and stem cells in periodontitis conditions. Microbes direct dental stem cells to secrete a variety of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines, which increase the inflammatory burden in the damaged periodontal tissue, which further aggravates periodontitis. Microbial interaction also decreases the osteogenic differentiation potential of dental stem cells by downregulating alkaline phosphatase, runt-related transcription factor 2, type 1 collagen, osteocalcin, osteopontin, and so on. Microbe and stem cell interaction amplifies pro-inflammatory cytokine signaling in the periodontitis niche, decreasing the osteogenic commitment of dental stem cells. A clear understanding of microbial stem cell interactions is crucial in designing regenerative therapies using stem cells in the management of periodontitis.

Four-Octyl itaconate ameliorates periodontal destruction via Nrf2-dependent antioxidant system. Int J Oral Sci 2022; 14:27.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a widespread oral disease characterized by continuous inflammation of the periodontal tissue and an irreversible alveolar bone loss, which eventually leads to tooth loss. Four-octyl itaconate (4-OI) is a cell-permeable itaconate derivative and has been recognized as a promising therapeutic target for the treatment of inflammatory diseases. Here, we explored, for the first time, the protective effect of 4-OI on inhibiting periodontal destruction, ameliorating local inflammation, and the underlying mechanism in periodontitis. Here we showed that 4-OI treatment ameliorates inflammation induced by lipopolysaccharide in the periodontal microenvironment. 4-OI can also significantly alleviate inflammation and alveolar bone loss via Nrf2 activation as observed on samples from experimental periodontitis in the C57BL/6 mice. This was further confirmed as silencing Nrf2 blocked the antioxidant effect of 4-OI by downregulating the expression of downstream antioxidant enzymes. Additionally, molecular docking simulation indicated the possible mechanism under Nrf2 activation. Also, in Nrf2−/− mice, 4-OI treatment did not protect against alveolar bone dysfunction due to induced periodontitis, which underlined the importance of the Nrf2 in 4-OI mediated periodontitis treatment. Our results indicated that 4-OI attenuates inflammation and oxidative stress via disassociation of KEAP1-Nrf2 and activation of Nrf2 signaling cascade. Taken together, local administration of 4-OI offers clinical potential to inhibit periodontal destruction, ameliorate local inflammation for more predictable periodontitis.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a chronic infectious disease that affects the oral health of adults. Long non-coding RNA OIP5 antisense RNA 1 (OIP5-AS1) has been reported to downregulated in the periodontal tissue of patients with periodontitis. Therefore, the study sought to look at the possible functions of OIP5-AS1 in periodontitis and the associated underlying mechanisms. In the present study, the expression level of OIP5-AS1 and microRNA-92a-3p were analyzed using reverse transcription-quantitative PCR. The levels of osteogenic proteins were determined using western blotting and inflammatory cytokines and oxidative stress were also examined. The proliferation of human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) was evaluated using MTT assays. Assay of osteogenic differentiation was undertaken by means of Alkaline phosphatase staining. The possible association between OIP5-AS1 and miR-92a-3p was determined applying dual-luciferase reporter assays and verified by RNA immunoprecipitation assay. We found that OIP5-AS1 was expressed at low levels in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated hPDLSCs. OIP5-AS1 overexpression promoted proliferation and osteogenic differentiation ability and reduced LPS-induced inflammation in hPDLSCs. Furthermore, OIP5-AS1 directly targeted and reduced miR-92a-3p expression. The overexpression of miR-92a-3p partly abolished the effects of OIP5-AS1 on LPS-induced cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation as well as inflammation in hPDLSCs. Collectively, the results indicated that OIP5-AS1 overexpression inhibited the LPS-induced inflammatory response and promoted the osteogenic differentiation of hPDLSCs by sponging miR-92a-3p. Thus, OIP5-AS1 is probably an essential objective for research during periodontitis treatment.

Abstract
Periodontitis is initiated by hyper-inflammatory responses in the periodontal tissues that generate dysbiotic ecological changes within the microbial communities. As a result, supportive tissues of the tooth are damaged and periodontal attachment is lost. Gingival recession, formation of periodontal pockets with the presence of bleeding, and often suppuration and/or tooth mobility are evident upon clinical examination. These changes may ultimately lead to tooth loss. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are implicated in controlling periodontal disease progression and have been shown to play a key role in periodontal tissue homeostasis and regeneration. Evidence shows that MSCs interact with subgingival microorganisms and their by-products and modulate the activity of immune cells by either paracrine mechanisms or direct cell-to-cell contact. The aim of this review is to reveal the interactions that take place between microbes and in particular periodontal pathogens and MSCs in order to understand the factors and mechanisms that modulate the regenerative capacity of periodontal tissues and the ability of the host to defend against putative pathogens. The clinical implications of these interactions in terms of anti-inflammatory and paracrine responses of MSCs, anti-microbial properties and alterations in function including their regenerative potential are critically discussed based on literature findings. In addition, future directions to design periodontal research models and study ex vivo the microbial-stem cell interactions are introduced.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to explore the function of Pentraxin-3 (PTX3) in cell viability, pyroptosis, inflammation, osteogenic differentiation and oxidative stress of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs). In the study, hPDLSCs were stimulated by LPS from Porphyromonas gingivalis to establish an in vitro inflammatory cellular model. Protein expression was measured using western blotting. Messenger RNA (mRNA) levels were evaluated by real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Cell viability, inflammatory cytokine production and caspase-1 activity was measured with commercially available kits. Oxidative stress was assessed by examining reactive oxygen species and nitric oxide production. We found that PTX3 was upregulated in LPS-stimulated hPDLSCs. PTX3 overexpression aggravated LPS-induced cell viability loss, inflammatory cytokine production and oxidative stress, as well as suppressed the osteogenic differentiation in hPDLSCs, while silencing PTX3 had the opposite effects. Further, PTX3 overexpression promoted NOD-like receptor family, pyrin domain containing protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome overactivation and pyroptosis, evidenced by increased protein levels of NLRP3, cleaved-caspase-1, apoptosis-associated speck-like protein (ASC) and N-terminal gasdermin D (GSDMD-N). Inhibition of NLRP3 inflammasome and/or caspase-1 partially attenuated the effects of PTX3 on LPS-stimulated hPDLSCs. This study indicated that PTX3 promotes LPS-induced pyroptosis and inflammation in hPDLSCs through activation of the caspase-1-dependent NLRP3 inflammasome.

Chlorogenic Acid as a Positive Regulator in LPS-PG-Induced Inflammation via TLR4/MyD88-Mediated NF-κB and PI3K/MAPK Signaling Cascades in Human Gingival Fibroblasts. Mediators Inflamm 2022; 2022:2127642. [PMID: 35437426 PMCID: PMC9013303 DOI: 10.1155/2022/2127642] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2021] [Revised: 03/11/2022] [Accepted: 03/15/2022] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Gingival inflammation is one of the main causes that can be related to various periodontal diseases. Human gingival fibroblast (HGF) is the major constituent in periodontal connective tissue and secretes various inflammatory mediators, such as nitric oxide (NO) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), upon lipopolysaccharide stimulation. This study is aimed at investigating the anti-inflammatory mechanism of chlorogenic acid (CGA) on Porphyromonas gingivalis LPS- (LPS-PG-) stimulated HGF-1 cells. The concentration of NO and PGE2, as well as their responsible enzymes, inducible NO synthase (iNOS), and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), was analyzed by Griess reaction, ELISA, and western blot analysis. LPS-PG sharply elevated the production and protein expression of inflammatory mediators, which were significantly attenuated by CGA treatment in a dose-dependent manner. CGA treatment also suppressed activation of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)/myeloid differentiation primary response gene 88 (MyD88) and nuclear factor- (NF-) κB in LPS-PG-stimulated HGF-1 cells. Furthermore, LPS-PG-induced phosphorylation of extracellular regulated kinase (ERK) and Akt was abolished by CGA treatment, while c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and p38 did not have any effect. Consequently, these results suggest that CGA ameliorates LPS-PG-induced inflammatory responses by attenuating TLR4/MyD88-mediated NF-κB, phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt, and MAPK signaling pathways in HGF-1 cells.

Mesenchymal Stromal Cells from Healthy and Inflamed Human Gingiva Respond Differently to Porphyromonas gingivalis. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23073510. [PMID: 35408871 PMCID: PMC8998418 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23073510] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2022] [Revised: 03/02/2022] [Accepted: 03/08/2022] [Indexed: 01/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Gingiva-Derived Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (GMSCs) have been shown to play an important role in periodontitis. However, how P. gingivalis, one of the key etiological agents of the disease, affects healthy (H)- and periodontitis (P)-GMSCs is unknown. To address this problem, we established 10 H-GMSC and 12 P-GMSC lines. No significant differences in morphology, differentiation into chondroblasts and adipocytes, expression of characteristic MSCS markers, including pericyte antigens NG2 and PDGFR, were observed between H- and P-GMSC lines. However, proliferation, cell size and osteogenic potential were higher in P-GMSCs, in contrast to their lower ability to suppress mononuclear cell proliferation. P. gingivalis up-regulated the mRNA expression of IL-6, IL-8, MCP-1, GRO-α, RANTES, TLR-2, HIF-1α, OPG, MMP-3, SDF-1, HGF and IP-10 in P-GMSCs, whereas only IL-6, MCP-1 and GRO-α were up-regulated in H-GMSCs. The expression of MCP-1, RANTES, IP-10 and HGF was significantly higher in P-GMSCs compared to H-GMSCs, but IDO1 was lower. No significant changes in the expression of TLR-3, TLR-4, TGF-β, LAP, IGFBP4 and TIMP-1 were observed in both types of GMSCs. In conclusion, our results suggest that P-GMSCs retain their pro-inflammatory properties in culture, exhibit lower immunosuppressive potential than their healthy counterparts, and impaired regeneration-associated gene induction in culture. All these functions are potentiated significantly by P. gingivalis treatment.

Abstract
Regenerative endodontic procedures have been described for over a decade as a paradigm shift in the treatment of immature necrotic permanent teeth, owing to their ability to allow root maturation with subsequent enhancement of the tooth’s fracture resistance in addition to the potential for regeneration of vital intracanal tissues. Concomitantly, minimally invasive endodontics is another rising concept with the main concern of preservation of tooth structure. Stemming from their potential to preserve the original tooth structure, both regenerative and minimally invasive endodontics could be considered as two revolutionary sciences with one common goal. Achieving this goal would entail not only employing the appropriate strategies to recreate the ideal regenerative niche but modifying existing concepts and protocols currently being implemented in regenerative endodontics to address two important challenges affecting the outcome of these procedures; conservation of tooth structure and achieving effective disinfection. Therefore, the search for new biomimetic cell-friendly disinfecting agents and strategies is crucial if such a novel integratory concept is to be foreseen in the future. This could be attainable by advocating a new merged concept of “minimally invasive regenerative endodontic procedures (MIREPs),” through modifying the clinical protocol of REPs by incorporating a minimally invasive access cavity design/preparation and biomimetic disinfection protocol, which could enhance clinical treatment outcomes and in the future; allow for personalized disinfection/regeneration protocols to further optimize the outcomes of MIREPs. In this review, we aim to introduce this new concept, its realization and challenges along with future perspectives for clinical implementation.

Abstract
Dental mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are a promising tool for clinical application in and beyond dentistry. These cells possess multilineage differentiation potential and immunomodulatory properties. Due to their localization in the oral cavity, these cells could sometimes be exposed to different bacteria and viruses. Dental MSCs express various Toll-like receptors (TLRs), and therefore, they can recognize different microorganisms. The engagement of TLRs in dental MSCs by various ligands might change their properties and function. The differentiation capacity of dental MSCs might be either inhibited or enhanced by TLRs ligands depending on their nature and concentrations. Activation of TLR signaling in dental MSCs induces the production of proinflammatory mediators. Additionally, TLR ligands alter the immunomodulatory ability of dental MSCs, but this aspect is still poorly explored. Understanding the role of TLR signaling in dental MSCs physiology is essential to assess their role in oral homeostasis, inflammatory diseases, and tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Periodontitis and diabetes mellitus (DM) are two of the most common and challenging health problems worldwide and they affect each other mutually and adversely. Current periodontal therapies have unpredictable outcome in diabetic patients. Periodontal tissue engineering is a challenging but promising approach that aims at restoring periodontal tissues using one or all of the following: stem cells, signalling molecules and scaffolds. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and insulin-like growth factor (IGF) represent ideal examples of stem cells and signalling molecules. This review outlines the most recent updates in characterizing MSCs isolated from diabetics to fully understand why diabetics are more prone to periodontitis that theoretically reflect the impaired regenerative capabilities of their native stem cells. This characterisation is of utmost importance to enhance autologous stem cells based tissue regeneration in diabetic patients using both MSCs and members of IGF axis.

Abstract
Human periodontal ligament cells (hPDLCs) play a notable role in periodontal tissue homeostasis and regeneration. However, the effect of Porphyromonas gingivalis lipopolysaccharide (Pg-LPS) on the proliferation of hPDLCs remains unclear. The present study investigated the effects of Pg-LPS on the proliferation profile of hPDLCs, and the involvement of cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases in the process. hPDLCs were treated with Pg-LPS, and cell proliferation and cycle were detected using Cell Counting Kit-8 assays and flow cytometry. The mRNA expression levels of the cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs), including cyclins A, B1, D1 and D2 and CDK1, 2 and 4, were detected using reverse transcription-quantitative PCR. The protein expression levels of cyclins A, B1 and D1 were analysed using western blotting. The proliferation of hPDLCs was significantly increased after treatment with Pg-LPS at the concentrations of 0.001, 0.01, 0.1, 1 and 10 µg/ml for 24, 36 and 48 h compared with the cells cultured without LPS (P<0.01). The proliferation index of hPDLCs was significantly enhanced after treatment with Pg-LPS (0.0001, 0.001, 0.01, 0.1, 1 and 10 µg/ml) for 24 h (P<0.01). However, the S-phase fraction (SPF) only significantly increased after treatment with Pg-LPS at 0.01 µg/ml for 24 h (P<0.05), while the G2/M-phase fraction increased (P<0.01) and the G0/G1-phase fraction decreased (P<0.01) compared with the controls. The proliferation index and SPF increased, peaked at 24 h and then decreased at 48 h in both Pg-LPS-stimulated and control groups. Notably, Pg-LPS significantly upregulated the expression levels of cyclins D1, A and B1 after 24 h compared with those in the controls. Overall, the present study indicated that Pg-LPS may enhance the proliferation of hPDLCs, potentially through upregulation of cyclins D1, A and B1.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are increasingly used in tissue regeneration, not only because of their multilineage differentiation ability, but also because of their immunomodulatory function, which allows them to play a role in the inflammatory milieu, especially in periodontitis. Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) is an important pathogen associated with the progression of periodontitis. Heterogeneous MSC sources show differences in their inflammatory-immune responsiveness and osteogenesis capabilities when exposed to P. gingivalis and its virulence factors. This article reviews the promoted inflammatory and immune responses of periodontal ligament stem cells, which are potential pitfalls in bone regeneration. MSCs from other sources showed contradictory inflammatory and immune reactions in the few studies on this topic. We also summarize the mechanisms involved in the inflammatory, immune responses and osteogenic potential of MSCs exposed to P. gingivalis and its virulence factors to inform an improved utilization of MSCs in regenerative therapies for periodontitis.

Abstract
More than 6 billion bacteria and other microorganisms live in the adult oral cavity. As a result of any deleterious effect on this community, some microorganisms will survive better than others, which may trigger pathogenic processes like caries, halitosis, gingivitis or periodontitis. Oral dysbiosis is among the most frequent human health hazards globally. Quality of life of patients deteriorates notably, while treatments are often unpleasant, expensive and irreversible, e.g. tooth loss. In the experiments reported here, we investigated the individual interactions between 8 pathogenic and 8 probiotic strains and a commercially available probiotic product. Almost all pathogens, namely Fusobacterium nucleatum, Porphyromonas gingivalis, Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, Streptococcus mutans, Streptococcus oralis, Streptococcus gordonii, Enterococcus faecalis and Prevotella buccae are pathogens frequently occurring in the oral cavity. The used probiotic strains were Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus delbrueckii, Bifidobacterium thermophilum and two Streptococcus dentisani isolates. Using a modified agar diffusion method, we investigated capability of the probiotic bacteria to prevent the growth of the pathogenic ones in order to identify candidates for future therapeutic treatments. The results indicated successful bacteriocin production, i.e. growth inhibition, against every pathogenic bacterium by at least 5 probiotic strains.

Abstract
Maxillofacial-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MFSCs) are a particular collective type of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) that originate from the hard and soft tissue of the maxillofacial region. Recently, many types of MFSCs have been isolated and characterized. MFSCs have the common characteristics of being extremely accessible and amazingly multipotent and thus have become a promising stem cell resource in tissue regeneration. However, different MFSCs can give rise to different cell lineages, have different advantages in clinical use, and regulate the immune and inflammation microenvironment through paracrine mechanisms in different ways. Hence, in this review, we will concentrate on the updated new findings of all types of MFSCs in tissue regeneration and also introduce the recently discovered types of MFSCs. Important issues about proliferation and differentiation in vitro and in vivo, up-to-date clinical application, and paracrine effect of MFSCs in tissue regeneration will also be discussed. Our review may provide a better guide for the clinical use of MFSCs and further direction of research in MFSC regeneration medicine.

expression were found to decrease significantly after 7 days of treatment, while osteocalcin expression was found to decrease after 14 days. The nodule formation in the control group was much greater in both number and size of nodules than in experimental groups, which implied a positive sign of calcium deposition in controls.
Conclusion
The results indicated that nicotine and
P. gingivalis
showed adverse effect on osteogenic differentiation properties of PDLs.

[PMID: 34437404 PMCID: PMC8402370 DOI: 10.3390/toxins13080533] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2021] [Accepted: 07/26/2021] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
It is widely recognized that periodontal disease is an inflammatory entity of infectious origin, in which the immune activation of the host leads to the destruction of the supporting tissues of the tooth. Periodontal pathogenic bacteria like Porphyromonas gingivalis, that belongs to the complex net of oral microflora, exhibits a toxicogenic potential by releasing endotoxins, which are the lipopolysaccharide component (LPS) available in the outer cell wall of Gram-negative bacteria. Endotoxins are released into the tissues causing damage after the cell is lysed. There are three well-defined regions in the LPS: one of them, the lipid A, has a lipidic nature, and the other two, the Core and the O-antigen, have a glycosidic nature, all of them with independent and synergistic functions. Lipid A is the "bioactive center" of LPS, responsible for its toxicity, and shows great variability along bacteria. In general, endotoxins have specific receptors at the cells, causing a wide immunoinflammatory response by inducing the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines and the production of matrix metalloproteinases. This response is not coordinated, favoring the dissemination of LPS through blood vessels, as well as binding mainly to Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) expressed in the host cells, leading to the destruction of the tissues and the detrimental effect in some systemic pathologies. Lipid A can also act as a TLRs antagonist eliciting immune deregulation. Although bacterial endotoxins have been extensively studied clinically and in a laboratory, their effects on the oral cavity and particularly on periodontium deserve special attention since they affect the connective tissue that supports the tooth, and can be linked to advanced medical conditions. This review addresses the distribution of endotoxins associated with periodontal pathogenic bacteria and its relationship with systemic diseases, as well as the effect of some therapeutic alternatives.

Abstract
Rationale: Manipulation of the gut microbiome can prevent pathologic bone loss. However, the effects of probiotics on mitochondrial epigenetic remodeling and skeletal homeostasis in the high-fat diet (HFD)-linked obesity remains to be explored. Here, we examined the impact of probiotics supplementation on mitochondrial biogenesis and bone homeostasis through the histone methylation mechanism in HFD fed obese mice. Methods: 16S rRNA gene sequencing was performed to study the microbiota composition in the gut and microbial dysbiosis in obese mouse model. High resolution (microPET/CT) imaging was performed to demonstrate the obese associated colonic inflammation. Obese-associated upregulation of target miRNA in osteoblast was investigated using a microRNA qPCR array. Osteoblastic mitochondrial mass was evaluated using confocal imaging. Overexpression of mitochondrial transcription factor (Tfam) was used to investigate the glycolysis and mitochondrial bioenergetic metabolism using Tfam-transgenic (Tg) mice fed on HFD. The bone formation and mechanical strength was evaluated by microCT analysis and three-point bending analysis. Results: High-resolution imaging (µ-CT) and mechanical testing revealed that probiotics induced a significant increase of trabecular bone volume and bone mechanical strength respectively in obese mice. Probiotics or Indole-3-propionic acid (IPA) treatment directly to obese mice, prevents gut inflammation, and improved osteoblast mineralization. Mechanistically, probiotics treatment increases mitochondrial transcription factor A (Tfam) expression in osteoblasts by promoting Kdm6b/Jmjd3 histone demethylase, which inhibits H3K27me3 epigenetic methylation at the Tfam promoter. Furthermore, Tfam-transgenic (Tg) mice, fed with HFD, did not experience obesity-linked reduction of glucose uptake, mitochondrial biogenesis and mineralization in osteoblasts. Conclusions: These results suggest that the probiotics mediated changes in the gut microbiome and its derived metabolite, IPA are potentially be a novel agent for regulating bone anabolism via the gut-bone axis.

Abstract
Inflammatory periodontal disease known as periodontitis is one of the most common conditions that affect human teeth and often leads to tooth loss. Due to the complexity of the periodontium, which is composed of several tissues, its regeneration and subsequent return to a homeostatic state is challenging with the therapies currently available. Cellular therapy is increasingly becoming an alternative in regenerative medicine/dentistry, especially therapies using mesenchymal stem cells, as they can be isolated from a myriad of tissues. Periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) are probably the most adequate to be used as a cell source with the aim of regenerating the periodontium. Biological insights have also highlighted PDLSCs as promising immunomodulator agents. In this review, we explore the state of knowledge regarding the properties of PDLSCs, as well as their therapeutic potential, describing current and future clinical applications based on tissue engineering techniques.

Abstract
Periodontitis is characterized by the periodontium's pathologic destruction due to the host's overwhelmed inflammation to the dental plaque. The bacterial infections and subsequent host immune responses have shaped a distinct microenvironment, which generally affects resident periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs). Interestingly, recent studies have revealed that impaired PDLSCs may also contribute to the disturbance of periodontal homeostasis. The putative vicious circle underlying the interesting "positive feedback" of PDLSCs in the periodontitis niche remains a hot research topic, whereas the inseparable interactions between resident PDLSCs and the periodontitis niche are still not fully understood. This review provides a microscopic view on the periodontitis progression, especially the quick but delicate immune responses to oral dysbacterial infections. We also summarize the interesting crosstalk of the resident PDLSCs with their surrounding periodontitis niche and potential mechanisms. Particularly, the microenvironment reduces the osteogenic properties of resident PDLSCs, which are closely related to their reparative activity. Reciprocally, these impaired PDLSCs may disrupt the microenvironment by aggravating the host immune responses, promoting aberrant angiogenesis, and facilitating the osteoclastic activity. We further recommend that more in-depth studies are required to elucidate the interactions of PDLSCs with the periodontal microenvironment and provide novel interventions for periodontitis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study is to investigate the underlying mechanism of the recovery of periodontal ligament cells (PDLCs) sequentially exposed to inflammation and mechanical loading. MATERIALS AND METHODS We divided PDLCs into four groups: control; compressive force (CF) alone (2.0 g/cm2 ); lipopolysaccharides (LPS) pretreatment (0.1 μg/ml) followed by simultaneous LPS and CF stimulation, simulating uncontrolled periodontitis; and LPS pretreatment followed by CF exposure, simulating controlled periodontitis. The expression of EphB4-ephrinB2 and EphA2-ephrinA2, and the level of osteoclastogenesis and osteogenesis were evaluated. RESULTS Simultaneous stimulation by LPS and CF, compared with CF alone and sequential LPS and CF exposure, significantly suppressed EphB4 and enhanced ephrinA2 expression. Similarly, the most intense osteoclastic differentiation was observed under simultaneous LPS and CF stimulation, while sequential exposure to LPS and CF only slightly increased osteoclastic cell numbers. Both the activation of EphB4 signaling and ephrinA2 silencing lowered osteoclastic differentiation, which had previously been upregulated by simultaneous LPS and CF stimulation. These treatments also increased osteogenic differentiation. CONCLUSIONS Simultaneous LPS and CF stimulation critically enhances osteoclastogenesis in PDLCs through the suppression of EphB4 and the induction of ephrinA2 signaling. Sequential LPS and CF exposure partially abolishes the osteolytic effects of simultaneous stimulation.

Abstract
Salivary levels of interleukin-8 (IL-8) are elevated in patients with periodontitis. Caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) improves the periodontal status in subjects. However, whether CAPE can reduce IL-8 expression is unclear. We collected saliva to determine proinflammatory cytokine levels and used subgingival calculus and surrounding tissues from patients with periodontitis for oral microbiota analysis via 16s ribosomal RNA gene sequencing. THP-1 cells were stimulated with sterile-filtered saliva from patients, and target gene/protein expression was assessed. IL-8 mRNA expression was analyzed in saliva-stimulated THP-1 cells treated with CAPE and the heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) inhibitor tin-protoporphyrin (SnPP). In 72 symptomatic individuals, IL-8 was correlated with periodontal inflammation (bleeding on probing, r = 0.45; p < 0.001) and disease severity (bleeding on probing, r = 0.45; p < 0.001) but not with the four oral microbiota species tested. Reduced salivary IL-8 secretion was correlated with effective periodontitis treatment (r = 0.37, p = 0.0013). In THP-1 cells, saliva treatment induced high IL-8 expression and IKK2 and nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) phosphorylation. However, the IKK inhibitor BMS-345541, NF-κB inhibitor BAY 11-7082, and CAPE attenuated saliva-induced IL-8 expression. CAPE induced HO-1 expression and inhibited IKK2, IκBα, and NF-κB phosphorylation. Blocking HO-1 decreased the anti-inflammatory activity of CAPE. The targeted suppression of IL-8 production using CAPE reduces inflammation and periodontitis.

Abstract
Increasing evidence incriminates low-grade inflammation in cardiovascular, metabolic diseases, and neuropsychiatric clinical conditions, all important causes of morbidity and mortality. One of the upstream and modifiable precipitants and perpetrators of inflammation is chronic periodontitis, a polymicrobial infection with Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) playing a central role in the disease pathogenesis. We review the association between P. gingivalis and cardiovascular, metabolic, and neuropsychiatric illness, and the molecular mechanisms potentially implicated in immune upregulation as well as downregulation induced by the pathogen. In addition to inflammation, translocation of the pathogens to the coronary and peripheral arteries, including brain vasculature, and gut and liver vasculature has important pathophysiological consequences. Distant effects via translocation rely on virulence factors of P. gingivalis such as gingipains, on its synergistic interactions with other pathogens, and on its capability to manipulate the immune system via several mechanisms, including its capacity to induce production of immune-downregulating micro-RNAs. Possible targets for intervention and drug development to manage distal consequences of infection with P. gingivalis are also reviewed.
