Synoviolin alleviates GSDMD-mediated periodontitis by suppressing its stability

Inhibition of DCUN1D1 attenuates periodontitis by suppressing NF-κB signaling

Nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) signaling-mediated inflammation contributes greatly to the pathogenesis of periodontitis. Neddylation, a ubiquitin-like posttranslational modification, is known to regulate NF-κB signaling. DCUN1D1 (defective in cullin neddylation 1 domain containing 1) is a critical factor in neddylation and has been shown to regulate NF-κB activation. However, the previse roles of DCUN1D1 in periodontitis are not fully elucidated. To explore the roles of DCUN1D1 in periodontitis, the expression of DCUN1D1 was measured in gingival tissues of patients with periodontitis. We inhibited DCUN1D1 by siRNA knocking down or using inhibitor in gingival fibroblasts and the lipopolysaccharides (LPS)-induced expression of IL-6 and TNF-α, and activation of NF-κB were measured. The expression of DCUN1D1 was increased in gingival tissues of patients with periodontitis. Knocking down or inhibiting DCUN1D1 suppressed LPS-induced production of IL-6 and TNF-α, decreased NF-κB activity, and inhibited LPS-induced activation of NF-κB. Inhibiting DCUN1D1 ameliorates periodontitis by suppressing NF-κB signaling.

Global trends in research on aging associated with periodontitis from 2002 to 2023: a bibliometric analysis

Background

Aging has been implicated in many chronic inflammatory diseases, including periodontitis. Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease caused by long-term irritation of the periodontal tissues by the plaque biofilm on the surface of the teeth. However, only a few bibliometric analyses have systematically studied this field to date. This work sought to visualize research hot spots and trends in aging associated with periodontitis from 2002 to 2023 through bibliometric approaches.

Methods

Graphpad prism v8.0.2 was used to analyse and plot annual papers, national publication trends and national publication heat maps. In addition, CtieSpace (6.1.6R (64-bit) Advanced Edition) and VOSviewer (version 1.6.18) were used to analyse these data and visualize the scientific knowledge graph.

Results

The number of documents related to aging associated with periodontitis has steadily increased over 21 years. With six of the top ten institutions in terms of publications coming from the US, the US is a major driver of research in this area. journal of periodontology is the most published journal in the field. Tonetti MS is the most prolific authors and co-cited authors in the field. Journal of Periodontology and Journal of Clinical Periodontology are the most popular journals in the field with the largest literature. Periodontitis, Alzheimer's disease, and peri-implantitis are current hot topics and trends in the field. Inflammation, biomarkers, oxidative stress cytokines are current research hotspots in this field.

Conclusion

Our research found that global publications regarding research on aging associated with periodontitis increased dramatically and were expected to continue increasing. Inflammation and aging, and the relationship between periodontitis and systemic diseases, are topics worthy of attention.
