Lin S, Marvidou AM, Novak R, Moreinos D, Abbott PV, Rotstein I. Pathogenesis of non-infection related inflammatory root resorption in permanent teeth: A narrative review. Int Endod J 2023; 56:1432-1445. [PMID: 37712904 DOI: 10.1111/iej.13976] [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: 05/17/2023] [Revised: 08/28/2023] [Accepted: 08/29/2023] [Indexed: 09/16/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The mechanism of action of root resorption in a permanent tooth can be classified as infection-related (e.g., microbial infection) or non-infection-related (e.g., sterile damage). Infection induced root resorption occurs due to bacterial invasion. Non-infection-related root resorption stimulates the immune system through a different mechanism. OBJECTIVES The aim of this narrative review is to describe the pathophysiologic process of non-infection-related inflammatory processes involved in root resorption of permanent teeth. METHODS A literature search on root resorption was conducted using Scopus (PubMed and Medline) and Google Scholar databases to highlight the pathophysiology of bone and root resorption in non-infection-related situations. The search included key words covering the relevant category. It included in vitro and in vivo studies, systematic reviews, case series, reviews, and textbooks in English. Conference proceedings, lectures and letters to the editor were excluded. RESULTS Three types of root resorption are related to the non-infection mechanism of action, which includes surface resorption due to either trauma or excessive orthodontic forces, external replacement resorption and external cervical resorption. The triggers are usually damage associated molecular patterns and hypoxia conditions. During this phase macrophages and clastic cells act to eliminate the damaged tissue and bone, eventually enabling root resorption and bone repair as part of wound healing. DISCUSSION The resorption of the root occurs during the inflammatory phase of wound healing. In this phase, damaged tissues are recognized by macrophages and neutrophiles that secrete interlaukines such as TNF-α, IL-1, IL-6, IL-8. Together with the hypoxia condition that accelarates the secretion of growth factors, the repair of the damaged perioduntiom, including damaged bone, is initiated. If the precementum and cementoblast are injured, root resorption can occur. CONCLUSIONS Wound healing exhibits different patterns of action that involves immune stimulation in a bio-physiological activity, that occurs in the proper sequence, with overlapping phases. Two pathologic conditions, DAMPs and hypoxia, can activate the immune cells including clastic cells, eliminating damaged tissue and bone. Under certain conditions, root resorption occurs as a side effect.

[PMID: 37769974 DOI: 10.1016/j.pbiomolbio.2023.09.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2023] [Revised: 08/27/2023] [Accepted: 09/20/2023] [Indexed: 10/03/2023]
Abstract
Periodontitis, the sixth most prevalent epidemic disease globally, profoundly impacts oral aesthetics and masticatory functionality. Hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), an oxygen-dependent transcriptional activator, has emerged as a pivotal regulator in periodontal tissue and alveolar bone metabolism, exerts critical functions in angiogenesis, erythropoiesis, energy metabolism, and cell fate determination. Numerous essential phenotypes regulated by HIF are intricately associated with bone metabolism in periodontal tissues. Extensive investigations have highlighted the central role of HIF and its downstream target genes and pathways in the coupling of angiogenesis and osteogenesis. Within this concise perspective, we comprehensively review the cellular phenotypic alterations and microenvironmental dynamics linking HIF to periodontitis. We analyze current research on the HIF pathway, elucidating its impact on bone repair and regeneration, while unraveling the involved cellular and molecular mechanisms. Furthermore, we briefly discuss the potential application of targeted interventions aimed at HIF in the field of bone tissue regeneration engineering. This review expands our biological understanding of the intricate relationship between the HIF gene and bone angiogenesis in periodontitis and offers valuable insights for the development of innovative therapies to expedite bone repair and regeneration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND P. gingivalis exacerbates tissue hypoxia and worsens periodontal inflammation. This study investigated the effect of a therapeutic oxygen carrier (M101), derived from Arenicola marina, on hypoxia and associated inflammation in the context of periodontitis. METHODS The effect of M101 on GLUT-1, GLUT-3, HIF-1α and MMP-9 expression, hypoxia and antioxidant status in oral epithelial cells (EC) exposed to CoCl2 (1000μM), P. gingivalis (MOI 100) and CoCl2 + P. gingivalis was evaluated through hypoxia detection fluorescence assay, antioxidant concentration colorimetric assay and RTqPCR. Evaluation of M101 on EC proliferation was evaluated in an in vitro wound assay. In experimental periodontitis, periodontal wound healing and osteoclastic activity were compared among natural wound healing, placebo and gels containing M101 (1 g/L and 2 g/L) groups through histomorphometry and TRAP assay respectively. The expression of HIF-1α, MMP-9 and NFκB in periodontal tissues was also evaluated through immunofluorescence studies. RESULTS M101 downregulated GLUT-1, GLUT-3, HIF-1α and MMP-9 levels in EC exposed to CoCl2 , P. gingivalis and CoCl2 + P. gingivalis (p < 0.05). Fluorescence and colorimetric analyses confirmed hypoxia reduction and antioxidant capacity improvement in such EC upon M101 treatment. Moreover, M101 improved significantly the in vitro wound closure. In vivo, the attachment level was significantly improved, and osteoclastic activity was reduced in mice treated with M101 gels compared to placebo and natural wound healing groups (p < 0.05). HIF-1α, MMP-9 and NFκB expression in periodontal tissues was reduced in M101 gels treated mice compared to the controls. CONCLUSION M101 showed promise in resolving hypoxia and associated inflammation mediated tissue degradation. Its potential in the clinical management of periodontitis must be further investigated.

Distinct differences in hypoxic responses between human oral mucosa and skin fibroblasts in a 3D collagen matrix. In Vitro Cell Dev Biol Anim 2020; 56:452-479. [PMID: 32588253 DOI: 10.1007/s11626-020-00458-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2020] [Accepted: 04/16/2020] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
The differences between oral mucosa and skin wound healing involving hypoxic responses of fibroblasts are poorly elucidated. In this study, we aimed to study the different hypoxic responses between oral and skin fibroblasts embedded in a three-dimensional (3D) collagen matrix to address the early stage of wound healing. Primary oral mucosa fibroblasts (OMFs) obtained from the retromolar area and skin fibroblasts (SFs) obtained from the abdomen were cultured in the 3D 'floating model' under either 21%, 5% or 1% O2 for 2 days. Cell viability under hypoxia was higher in the OMFs than in the SFs. Collagen gel contraction was suppressed under hypoxic conditions in both fibroblasts, consistent with the reduction of alpha smooth muscle actin expression, except for SFs under 1% O2. Subsequently, their gene expression profiles between 21 and 1% O2 concentrations were compared via microarray technology, and the expression profiles of the extracellular matrix (ECM)-associated proteins, including matrix metalloproteinases and collagens, were evaluated. The OMFs were more susceptible to 1% O2, and more of their genes were downregulated than the SFs'. Although the production and expression levels of ECM-associated proteins in both fibroblasts diminished under hypoxia, those levels in OMFs were significantly higher than those in SFs. In the case of single origin OMFs and SFs, our findings suggest that OMFs possess a higher baseline production capacity of several ECM-associated proteins than SFs, except type III collagen. The intrinsic hypoxic responses of OMFs may be attributed to a more favourable wound healing in oral mucosa.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The facile preparation of oxygen-generating microparticles (M) consisting of Polycaprolactone (PCL), Pluronic F-127, and calcium peroxide (CPO) (PCL-F-CPO-M) fabricated through an electrospraying process is disclosed. The biological study confirmed the positive impact from the oxygen-generating microparticles on the cell growth with high viability. The presented technology could work as a prominent tool for various tissue engineering and biomedical applications. METHODS The oxygen-generated microparticles fabricated through electrospraying processes were thoroughly characterization through various methods such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM)/SEM-Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS) analysis. RESULTS The analyses confirmed the presence of the various components and the porous structure of the microparticles. Spherical shape with spongy characteristic microparticles were obtained with negative charge surface (ζ = -16.9) and a size of 17.00 ± 0.34 μm. Furthermore, the biological study performed on rat chondrocytes demonstrated good cell viability and the positive impact of increasing the amount of CPO in the PCL-F-CPO-M. CONCLUSION This technological platform could work as an important tool for tissue engineering due to the ability of the microparticles to release oxygen in a sustained manner for up to 7 days with high cell viability.

Contraction dynamics of dental pulp cell rod microtissues. Clin Oral Investig 2019; 24:631-638.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The factors that contribute to the morphological changes of dental pulp cell-derived microtissues are unknown. Here, we investigated the contraction dynamics of rod-shaped microtissues derived from dental pulp cells and examined the underlying cell signaling pathways. METHODS Human dental pulp cells were seeded into agarose molds to assemble into rod-shaped microtissues. Resazurin- and tetrazolium-based cytotoxicity assays, Live/Dead staining, and hematoxylin and eosin staining for histological evaluation of rods were performed. Rod contraction was evaluated and measured for a period of 10 days. The role of TGF-β, phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT, and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway was analyzed. RESULTS Dental pulp cells readily assembled into rods, maintaining the geometric shape for 48 h. Following this period, they condensed to form stable spheroidal structures that remained vital for 10 days from seeding. Inhibition of phosphoinositide 3-kinase signaling pathway by LY294002 significantly prolonged the diminution in the length of rods formed by dental pulp cells. TGF-β and pharmacological inhibition of TGF-β signaling did not show pronounced effects. CONCLUSION Overall, dental pulp cells readily formed rod-shaped patterns of microtissues which, over a period of time, condensed into more stable spheroidal structures. Hence, technologies like bioprinting, using direct fabrication of microtissues need to consider the contraction dynamics. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The field of regenerative endodontology will benefit from our findings as it can be applied as a novel platform to test the impact of pharmacological agents, biomaterials, and regenerative approaches including bioprinting.

Abstract
Background and objective A key factor in the modulation of angiogenesis as well as in bone resorption is angiopoietin‐like 4. However, the role of angiopoietin‐like 4 in periodontal tissue is unknown. Here, we hypothesized that hypoxia and the hypoxia mimetic agent L‐mimosine can induce the production of angiopoietin‐like 4 in periodontal fibroblasts. Methods Human periodontal ligament fibroblasts (PDLF) were cultured in monolayer and spheroid cultures. The cultures were incubated in the presence of hypoxia or L‐mimosine. Angiopoietin‐like 4 mRNA and protein levels were measured by qPCR and ELISA, respectively. Also, the impact of Lipopolysaccharides of E. coli and P. gingivalis, interleukin (IL)‐1β and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)α was evaluated. Furthermore, we tested dependency on hypoxia‐inducible factor (HIF)‐1 activity by Western blotting for HIF‐1 and inhibitor studies with echinomycin. Potential autocrine effects were assessed by exposure of PDLF to recombinant angiopoietin‐like 4 in full length, C‐terminal and N‐terminal fragments. The impact on viability, DNA synthesis, alkaline phosphatase, and matrix mineralization was evaluated. Results Both hypoxia and L‐mimosine elevated angiopoietin‐like 4 mRNA and protein levels in monolayer cultures of PDLF. HIF‐1 was elevated after both hypoxia and L‐mimosine treatment. LPS, IL‐1β, and TNFα did not modulate angiopoietin‐like 4 levels significantly. Addition of echinomycin in the cultures inhibited the production of angiopoietin‐like 4. In spheroid cultures of PDLF, the increase did not reach the level of significance at mRNA and protein levels. Angiopoietin‐like 4 in full length, C‐terminal, and N‐terminal fragments did not modulate viability, DNA synthesis, alkaline phosphatase, and matrix mineralization. Conclusion Overall, we found that hypoxia and the hypoxia mimetic agent L‐mimosine can stimulate angiopoietin‐like 4 production in monolayer cultures of PDLF. This increase depends on HIF‐1 activity. Future studies will reveal how the modulation of angiopoietin‐like 4 in the periodontium contributes to periodontal disease and regeneration.

Abstract
Thixotropic clays have favorable properties for tissue regeneration. Hypoxia mimetic agents showed promising results in pre-clinical models for hard and soft tissue regeneration. It is unclear if clays can be used as carrier for hypoxia mimetic agent in a periodontal regenerative setting. Here, we tested the response of human fibroblasts of the periodontal soft tissue to synthetic clay hydrogels and assessed hypoxia mimetic agent release. Cells were cultured on synthetic clay hydrogels (5.00%-0.15%). We assessed viability and differentiation capacity with resazurin-based toxicity assays, MTT staining, Live-Dead staining, and alkaline phosphatase staining. To reveal the response of fibroblasts to hypoxia mimetic agent-loaded clay hydrogels, cells were exposed to clay supplemented with dimethyloxalylglycine, deferoxamine, l-mimosine, and CoCl2. Supernatants from hypoxia mimetic agent-loaded clay hydrogels were harvested and replaced with medium at hour 1, 3, 6, 24, 48, and 72. To reveal the hypoxia mimetic capacity of supernatants, vascular endothelial growth factor production in the fibroblasts was assessed in the culture medium. Our data show that clay did not induce relevant toxic effects in the fibroblasts which remained capable to differentiate into alkaline phosphatase-positive cells at the relevant concentrations. Fibroblasts cultured on clay hydrogel loaded with dimethyloxalylglycine, deferoxamine, l-mimosine, and CoCl2 remained vital, however, no significant increase in vascular endothelial growth factor levels was found in the culture medium. Only dimethyloxalylglycine-loaded clay supernatants taken in the first hours stimulated vascular endothelial growth factor production in fibroblasts. In conclusion no pronounced toxic effects of synthetic clay were observed. Supplementation with dimethyloxalylglycine leads to hypoxia mimetic activity. This pilot study provides first insights into the impact of synthetic clay on periodontal tissue.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A major mediator of angiogenesis is angiogenin, which is expressed in the early phase of healing in oral tissue engineering strategies. It is unclear how angiogenin is regulated in the periodontal tissue. The objective of this study was to reveal the regulation of angiogenin in response to hypoxia and the hypoxia mimetic agent l-mimosine in periodontal fibroblasts. METHODS Human fibroblasts of the periodontal ligament (PDLF) and the gingiva (GF) in monolayer and spheroid cultures were exposed to hypoxia or l-mimosine. The production of angiogenin was evaluated at mRNA and protein levels with reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays, respectively. Echinomycin, an inhibitor of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1 activity, was used to test the involvement of HIF-1. RESULTS Our data show that hypoxia and l-mimosine can increase angiogenin mRNA and protein levels in PDLF monolayer cultures. In GF monolayer cultures, we found an increase of angiogenin at the mRNA level in response to hypoxia. The increase of angiogenin can be blocked by inhibition of HIF-1 signaling via echinomycin. In PDLF and GF spheroid cultures, the impact of hypoxia and l-mimosine did not reach the level of significance. CONCLUSION Hypoxia and the hypoxia mimetic agent l-mimosine can increase the production of angiogenin via HIF-1 signaling in PDLF monolayer cultures but not in spheroid cultures. GF were less sensitive to the impact of hypoxia and l-mimosine. Overall, these results suggest a link between hypoxia, HIF-1 signaling and angiogenin in the periodontium.

Deferoxamine but Not Dimethyloxalylglycine, L-Mimosine, or Cobalt Dichloride Can Interfere with the MTT Assay. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2018; 2018:5872865. [PMID: 30581861 PMCID: PMC6276496 DOI: 10.1155/2018/5872865] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2018] [Revised: 09/11/2018] [Accepted: 09/26/2018] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Hypoxia mimetic agents (HMAs) have been shown to have a positive influence on cellular functions in a multitude of tissue regenerative strategies. Novel experimental approaches use biomaterials as carriers for controlled delivery of these HMAs. Here, the cytotoxic aspects of biocompatibility are of key relevance. The MTT assay is widely used to evaluate cytotoxicity and proliferation. Based on the implications from the proceeding research we hypothesized that specific HMAs such as deferoxamine at high concentrations can interfere with the MTT assay. Thus, the aim of this study was to test the repercussions of the HMAs dimethyloxalylglycine, deferoxamine, L-mimosine, and CoCl2 on the validity of the MTT assay. Murine MC3T3-E1 cells were cultured in serum-free alphaMEM and in alphaMEM supplemented with 10 % fetal bovine serum with the HMAs dimethyloxalylglycine, deferoxamine, L-mimosine, and CoCl2, respectively, at 3 mM-0.3 mM for 24 h (experimental groups). Cells without HMAs served as control (control groups). The same experiments were performed with medium and phosphate buffered saline (PBS) without cells. In all settings MTT solution was added to PBS-washed or unwashed culture plates for the last two hours of the incubation period. Then MTT solution was removed and dimethyl sulfoxide was added to dissolve the formazan crystals and absorption was measured. Our data show that the presence of deferoxamine can interfere with the MTT assay if not removed before the addition of MTT. This is particularly important when evaluating cell viability in setups where deferoxamine-loaded biomaterials are used.

Abstract
Abstract Persistent apical periodontitis (AP) is a situation involving an inflammatory and immune response caused mainly by anaerobic polymicrobial infection of the root canal system and the outcome and follow-up of the root canal treatment has been reported as intimately related to host response. The apical periodontitis repair might be associated with genetic polymorphisms. This study aimed to evaluate the association between HIF1A genetic polymorphisms (rs2301113 and rs2057482) with PAP in Brazilian patients. Subjects with at least 1 year of follow-up after root canal therapy (RCT) were recalled. Sixty-four subjects with signs/symptoms of PAP and 84 subjects with root canal-treated teeth exhibiting healthy perirradicular tissues (healed) were included. Genomic DNA was extracted from saliva and used for HIF1A genotyping by real-time PCR. Genotype and allele frequencies were compared by c2 or Fisher’s exact tests and odds ratio was implemented, using Epi Info 3.5.2. All tests were performed with an established alpha of 0.05. There was no association between allele and genotype distribution for HIF1As polymorphisms and PAP (p>0.05). The genetic polymorphisms in HIF1A were not associated with persistent apical periodontitis.
