Inducing cyclooxygenase-2 expression, prostaglandin E 2 and prostaglandin F 2α production of human dental pulp cells by activation of toll-like receptor-3, mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase/extracellular signal-regulated kinase and p38 signaling. J Dent Sci 2024; 19:1190-1199. [PMID: 38618082 PMCID: PMC11010691 DOI: 10.1016/j.jds.2023.11.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2023] [Revised: 11/17/2023] [Accepted: 11/17/2023] [Indexed: 04/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Background/purpose Bacterial infection was the major etiology for pulpal/root canal infection. This study aimed to investigate the activation of toll-like receptor-3 (TLR) on cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and PGF2α production of human dental pulp cells (HDPCs) and associated signaling. Materials and methods HDPCs were exposed to different concentrations of Poly (I:C) (a TLR3 activator). Cell viability was determined by 3- (4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5- diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity was evaluated by ALP staining. Activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and p38 by Poly (I:C) was determined by immunofluorescent staining. The COX-2 protein expression was analyzed by Western blot. PGE2 and PGF2α production was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The mRNA expression was studied by real-time polymerase-chain reaction. Moreover, HDPCs were exposed to Poly(I:C) with/without U0126 or SB203580 treatment and analysis of COX-2 expression and prostanoid production were conducted. Results Poly (I:C) showed little effect on ALP activity, but decreased viability of HDPCs. It stimulated COX-2 mRNA and protein expression. Poly (I:C) induced PGE2 and PGF2α production of HDPCs. Poly (I:C) activated p-ERK, and p-p38 protein expression. Treatment by U0126 (a mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK)/ERK inhibitor) and SB203580 (a p38 inhibitor) attenuated Poly (I:C)-induced COX-2 mRNA and protein expression as well as PGE2 and PGF2α production. Conclusion TLR3 activation is involved in the infection and inflammatory responses of pulp tissues, via MEK/ERK, and p38 signaling to mediate COX-2 expression as well as PGE2 and PGF2α production, contributing to the pathogenesis and progression of pulpal/periapical diseases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Pulmonary nontuberculous mycobacterial disease (pNTM) is a common pulmonary complication of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), but their association has rarely been researched. We aimed to reveal the clinical characteristics of RA with pNTM. METHODS Among all the RA patients who visited Tenri hospital from April 2017 to March 2018, we enrolled those fulfilling the 2007 ATS/IDSA diagnostic criteria of pNTM, and sex- and age- matched control group at a ratio of 1:5. Demographic characteristics were compared between the two groups. RESULTS Among 865 RA patients, 35 (4.0%) patients were complicated with pNTM. RA patients with pNTM had significantly lower BMI and higher rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-citrullinated protein antibody (ACPA) positivity. Bronchiectasis was the most frequent lesion, followed by clusters of small nodules, patchy consolidation and cavity. Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed bronchiectasis as a strong independent associated factor of pNTM. Treatment for pNTM was needed in 14 of the 35 (40%) RA patients with pNTM and sputum negative conversion was accomplished in 11 of the 14 cases (78.6%). CONCLUSIONS RA patients with lower BMI, RF/ACPA positivity, and bronchiectasis were associated with pNTM. Treatment for pNTM may attain sputum negative conversion and radiological improvement in patients with RA.

Extracellular Release of Citrullinated Vimentin Directly Acts on Osteoclasts to Promote Bone Resorption in a Mouse Model of Periodontitis. Cells 2023; 12:1109. [PMID: 37190018 PMCID: PMC10136503 DOI: 10.3390/cells12081109] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2022] [Revised: 03/21/2023] [Accepted: 03/29/2023] [Indexed: 05/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Elevated osteoclast (OC)-mediated bone resorption, a common pathological feature between periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis (RA), implicates a possible mutually shared pathogenesis. The autoantibody to citrullinated vimentin (CV), a representative biomarker of RA, is reported to promote osteoclastogenesis (OC-genesis). However, its effect on OC-genesis in the context of periodontitis remains to be elucidated. In an in vitro experiment, the addition of exogenous CV upregulated the development of Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-positive multinuclear OCs from mouse bone marrow cells and increased the formation of resorption pits. However, Cl-amidine, an irreversible pan-peptidyl arginine deiminase (PAD) inhibitor, suppressed the production and secretion of CV from RANKL-stimulated OC precursors, suggesting that the citrullination of vimentin occurs in OC precursors. On the other hand, the anti-vimentin neutralizing antibody suppressed in vitro Receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-Β ligand (RANKL)-induced OC-genesis. The CV-induced upregulation of OC-genesis was abrogated by the Protein kinase C (PKC)-δ inhibitor Rottlerin, accompanied by the downmodulation of OC-genesis-related genes, including Osteoclast stimulatory transmembrane protein (OC-STAMP), TRAP and Matrix Metallopeptidase 9 (MMP9) as well as extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) mitogen-activated protein (MAP)-kinase phosphorylation. Elevated levels of soluble CV and vimentin-bearing mononuclear cells were found in the bone resorption lesions of periodontitis induced in mice in the absence of an anti-CV antibody. Finally, local injection of anti-vimentin neutralizing antibody suppressed the periodontal bone loss induced in mice. Collectively, these results indicated that the extracellular release of CV promoted OC-genesis and bone resorption in periodontitis.

Abstract
Vaccine safety is measured by the disease protection it confers compared to the harm it may cause; both factors and their relative numbers have been the subject of disagreement. Cross-reactive attack of analogous self-antigens modified by dietary and microbiome factors is one of the poorly explored likely causes of harm. Screening for that and other risk factors might point out those most likely to develop severe vaccine reactions. Cooperation from those with opinions for and against vaccination in data gathering and vetting will lead to greater safety. Screening should include an integrative medical perspective regarding diet, microbiome, leaky gut, and other antigen sources. It might include emerging electronic technology or integrative energetic techniques vetted ultimately by cross-reactive lymphocyte testing or genetic evaluation. The knowledge gained from evaluating those with reactions could enhance the screening process and, since similar antigenic stimuli and reactions are involved, help long COVID sufferers. Centers for early identification and rescue from vaccine reactions could lower morbidity and mortality, and increase the percentage of people choosing to be vaccinated. Additional platforms for boosting; using lower dosage; other routes of administration, such as intranasal or intradermal needles; and possibly different antigens could make it easier to vaccinate globally to address the new variants of viruses rapidly arising.

Abstract
AIM The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the administration of pasteurized Akkermansia muciniphila and Amuc_1100 on periodontal destruction in lean and obese mice and to determine the impact of the mode of administration. MATERIALS AND METHODS Porphyromonas gingivalis-associated experimental periodontitis was induced in lean and obese mice. After 3 weeks, live, pasteurized A. muciniphila or Amuc_1100 was administered by oral or gastric gavage for three additional weeks. Moreover, an evaluation of the interaction between A. muciniphila and P. gingivalis was performed by RNA-sequencing, and cytokines secretion was measured in exposed macrophages. RESULTS Oral administration of live, pasteurized A. muciniphila or Amuc_1100 significantly decreased P. gingivalis-induced periodontal destruction and inflammatory infiltrate in lean and obese mice and contributed to the reduction of the plasma level of TNF-α and to the increase of IL-10. The co-culture of A. muciniphila and P. gingivalis induced an increased expression of genes linked to the synthesis of monobactam-related antibiotics in A. muciniphila, while a decrease of the gingipains and type IX secretion system was observed in P. gingivalis. In P. gingivalis-infected macrophages, pasteurized A. muciniphila decreased TNF-α and increased IL-10 levels. CONCLUSIONS Pasteurized A. muciniphila can counteract P. gingivalis-associated periodontal destruction.

Abstract
Observational findings achieved that gut microbes mediate human metabolic health
and disease risk. The types of intestinal microorganisms depend on the intake of
food and drugs and are also related to their metabolic level and genetic
factors. Recent studies have shown that chronic inflammatory pain is closely
related to intestinal microbial homeostasis. Compared with the normal intestinal
flora, the composition of intestinal flora in patients with chronic inflammatory
pain had significant changes in Actinomycetes,
Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, etc. At the
same time, short-chain fatty acids and amino acids, the metabolites of
intestinal microorganisms, can regulate neural signal molecules and signaling
pathways, thus affecting the development trend of chronic inflammatory pain.
Glucocorticoids and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in the treatment of
chronic inflammatory pain, the main mechanism is to affect the secretion of
inflammatory factors and the abundance of intestinal bacteria. This article
reviews the relationship between intestinal microorganisms and their metabolites
on chronic inflammatory pain and the possible mechanism.

Abstract
Teeth are complex structures where a soft dental pulp tissue is enriched with nerves, vasculature and connective tissue and encased by the cushioning effect of dentin and the protection of a hard enamel in the crown and cementum in the root. Injuries such as trauma or caries can jeopardise these layers of protection and result in pulp exposure, inflammation and infection. Provision of most suitable materials for tooth repair upon injury has been the motivation of dentistry for many decades. Wnt signalling, an evolutionarily conserved pathway, plays key roles during pre- and post-natal development of many organs including the tooth. Mutations in the components of this pathway gives rise to various types of developmental tooth anomalies. Wnt signalling is also fundamental in the response of odontoblasts to injury and repair processes. The complexity of tooth structure has resulted in diverse studies looking at specific compartments or cell types of this organ. This review looks at the current advances in the field of tooth development and regeneration. The objective of the present review is to provide an updated vision on dental biomaterials research, focusing on their biological properties and interactions to act as evidence for their potential use in vital pulp treatment procedures. We discuss the outstanding questions and future directions to make this knowledge more translatable to the clinics.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to explore the potential role of experimental periodontitis in pulmonary inflammation in mice. MATERIALS AND METHODS Mice were divided into control, ligature-induced periodontitis (L) and ligature plus Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis)-induced periodontitis (LPG) groups. Alveolar bone resorption, pulmonary function, lung tissue histology and cytokine expression were examined at 2, 4 and 8 weeks. Then cytokines and neutrophils in the peripheral blood and lung tissue were further assessed at 8 weeks to determine the role of cytokines induced by LPG periodontitis, and the effect of P. gingivalis was evaluated using P. gingivalis-IgG and P. gingivalis gingipain. RESULTS Alveolar bone resorption was more severe in the L and LPG groups. However, pulmonary inflammation was observed only in the LPG group at 8 weeks when cytokines and neutrophils in the peripheral blood and lung tissue were the most significant elevation, along with higher levels of P. gingivalis-IgG and P. gingivalis gingipain. Cytokine levels were also increased in the gingival tissue, peripheral blood and lung tissue in the L group, accompanied by elevated peripheral blood neutrophils, but not as significantly as that in the LPG group. CONCLUSIONS LPG periodontitis can trigger pulmonary inflammation over the long term, in which cytokines and P. gingivalis play an important role.

Association among periodontitis severity, anti-agalactosyl immunoglobulin G titer, and the disease activity of rheumatoid arthritis. J Periodontal Res 2021; 56:702-709. [PMID: 33641208 DOI: 10.1111/jre.12867] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/09/2020] [Revised: 01/30/2021] [Accepted: 02/07/2021] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the present study was to evaluate the association between the periodontal and serological parameters and the disease activity of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and between the anti-agalactosyl immunoglobulin G (IgG) titer and periodontitis severity. The objective was also to assess the effect of supragingival scaling on the serological parameters in patients with RA. BACKGROUND The periodontal and serological parameters in relation to the autoimmune inflammatory response have been linked to RA disease activity. However, the association of the anti-agalactosyl IgG titer with RA disease activity and periodontitis severity has not been elucidated. METHODS The periodontal, rheumatologic, and serological data were collected from 127 patients with RA in a retrospective cohort study. Of the 127 patients, 21 had been randomly assigned to receive oral hygiene instruction and supragingival scaling. The anti-agalactosyl IgG titer was determined by an electrochemiluminescence immunoassay. RESULTS The patients with a moderate to high RA disease activity showed significantly higher levels of probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level, anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide IgG, and anti-agalactosyl IgG titer and greater mean percentages of severe periodontitis than those with a low RA disease activity (p < .05 for all). Both univariate and multivariate analyses revealed a significantly positive correlation between the PD and RA disease activity (p = .009 and p = .001), between the anti-agalactosyl IgG titer and RA disease activity (p = .002 and p < .001), and between the anti-agalactosyl IgG titer and PD (p < .001 for both). Supragingival scaling significantly decreased the anti-agalactosyl IgG titer (p = 0.03). CONCLUSION The PD and anti-agalactosyl IgG titer are positively interrelated, both of which are correlated positively with RA disease activity and influenced by supragingival scaling in patients with RA.

Miralda I, Uriarte SM. Periodontal Pathogens' strategies disarm neutrophils to promote dysregulated inflammation. Mol Oral Microbiol 2020; 36:103-120.

Abstract
Periodontitis is an irreversible, chronic inflammatory disease where inflammophilic pathogenic microbial communities accumulate in the gingival crevice. Neutrophils are a major component of the innate host response against bacterial challenge, and under homeostatic conditions, their microbicidal functions typically protect the host against periodontitis. However, a number of periodontal pathogens developed survival strategies to evade neutrophil microbicidal functions while promoting inflammation, which provides a source of nutrients for bacterial growth. Research on periodontal pathogens has largely focused on a few established species: Tannerella forsythia, Treponema denticola, Fusobacterium nucleatum, Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, and Porphyromonas gingivalis. However, advances in culture-independent techniques have facilitated the identification of new bacterial species in periodontal lesions, such as the two Gram-positive anaerobes, Filifactor alocis and Peptoanaerobacter stomatis, whose characterization of pathogenic potential has not been fully described. Additionally, there is not a full understanding of the pathogenic mechanisms used against neutrophils by organisms that are abundant in periodontal lesions. This presents a substantial barrier to the development of new approaches to prevent or ameliorate the disease. In this review, we first summarize the neutrophil functions affected by the established periodontal pathogens listed above, denoting unknown areas that still merit a closer look. Then, we review the literature on neutrophil functions and the emerging periodontal pathogens, F. alocis and P. stomatis, comparing the effects of the emerging microbes to that of established pathogens, and speculate on the contribution of these putative pathogens to the progression of periodontal disease.

Abstract
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are known to have an important role in triggering the innate immune response and in priming antigen-specific adaptive immunity and inflammation. The differences in synovial tissue expression of the TLRs between seronegative and seropositive rheumatoid arthritis (RA) were examined from 9 seropositive RA, 5 seronegative RA and 4 osteoarthritis (OA) patients. Synovitis status was assessed using Krenn's scoring and TLR 1-9 expression by immunohistochemistry. Tissue citrulline content was analysed by HPLC method. In RA TLR expression was generally higher than in OA. TLR2 expression was higher in both seronegative and seropositive RA compared to OA. TLR 1, 4 and 8 expressions were higher in seropositive RA than in seronegative RA or in OA. For TLRs 3, 5, 6, 7 and 9 local differences of expression were found between groups. TLR 1-9 expression correlated with the synovitis grade. No statistical difference was found in synovial tissue citrulline content between the groups. In seropositive RA, the TLR repertoire in the synovial tissue differs from seronegative RA and could explain differences in disease outcomes. The high expression of protein sensing (TLR1, TLR2 and TLR4) and nucleic acid sensing TLRs (TLR7, TLR8 and TLR9) in the seropositive RA could make the synovium primed for reacting to citrullinated proteins and nucleic acids that could be released to extracellular space in formation of neutrophil extracellular traps. This reactivity could be augmented by Fc receptor activation by anti-citrullinated protein antibody immunocomplexes associated with seropositive RA.

Abstract
The current paradigm of onset and progression of periodontitis includes oral dysbiosis directed by inflammophilic bacteria, leading to altered resolution of inflammation and lack of regulation of the inflammatory responses. In the construction of explanatory models of the etiopathogenesis of periodontal disease, autoimmune mechanisms were among the first to be explored and historically, for more than five decades, they have been described in an isolated manner as part of the tissue damage process observed in periodontitis, however direct participation of these mechanisms in the tissue damage is still controversial. Autoimmunity is affected by genetic and environmental factors, leading to an imbalance between the effector and regulatory responses, mostly associated with failed resolution mechanisms. However, dysbiosis/infection and chronic inflammation could trigger autoimmunity by several mechanisms including bystander activation, dysregulation of toll-like receptors, amplification of autoimmunity by cytokines, epitope spreading, autoantigens complementarity, autoantigens overproduction, microbial translocation, molecular mimicry, superantigens, and activation or inhibition of receptors related to autoimmunity by microorganisms. Even though autoreactivity in periodontitis is biologically plausible, the associated mechanisms could be related to non-pathologic responses which could even explain non-recognized physiological functions. In this review we shall discuss from a descriptive point of view, the autoimmune mechanisms related to periodontitis physio-pathogenesis and the participation of oral dysbiosis on local periodontal autoimmune responses as well as on different systemic inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a general term for diseases characterised by inflammatory destruction of tooth-supporting tissues, gradual destruction of the marginal periodontal ligament and resorption of alveolar bone. Early-onset periodontitis is due to disturbed neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation and clearance. Indeed, mutations that inactivate the cysteine proteases cathepsin C result in the massive periodontal damage seen in patients with deficient NET formation. In contrast, exaggerated NET formation due to polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) hyper-responsiveness drives the pathology of late-onset periodontitis by damaging and ulcerating the gingival epithelium and retarding epithelial healing. Despite the gingival regeneration, periodontitis progression ends with almost complete loss of the periodontal ligament and subsequent tooth loss. Thus, NETs help to maintain periodontal health, and their dysregulation, either insufficiency or surplus, causes heavy periodontal pathology and edentulism.

Abstract
As a result of aging populations, in the future, dental practitioners will be caring for more older adults than ever before. These older adults, especially in developed countries, will demand a greater number of dental services, driven by increased tooth retention and an expectation of excellent oral healthcare throughout the life course. Further, the global rise in the prevalence and incidence of chronic diseases will increase the risk and/or severity of oral diseases and add a layer of complexity to the management of oral diseases in older adults. More older adults will be at a higher risk of periodontal disease and root caries as a result of reduced tooth loss and edentulism. This article reviews information on periodontitis and root caries, oral diseases which reflect the cumulative risk of the individual, and which are best addressed through prevention. Oral healthcare providers must embrace the concept of lifelong emphasis on prevention, as well as participation as active members of a healthcare team which provides healthcare for older adults in various settings (eg, hospital/clinic-based care, community-based settings, and long-term care facilities). National guidelines that address oral health are being considered by some countries, and if these are implemented they will increase the accessibility to oral health for older adults. In parallel to this, revisions of existing older adult insurance schemes (eg, the inclusion of routine oral healthcare in the US Medicare program) would promote the maintenance of a functional dentition that is pain-free and conducive to general health. The opportunity exists to implement a holistic approach to oral health that will align oral health with general health and emphasize that true health can only be achieved with the inclusion of oral health.

Abstract
Following a recent presentation at ATT Mallorca in May 2019, this paper gives insight into the current research of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and their role in conditions of health and disease. Though NETs reportedly support disease progression and play a role in the development of autoimmune diseases, we argue that NETs are mandatory for the mammalian immune system. They are especially important to patrol and surveil outer and inner body surfaces and are capable to perform major anti-microbial activities. Neutrophils are the first cells to be recruited to wounds, where they form NETs and aggregated NETs (aggNETs). The latter close the wounds and are ever-present in skinfolds, where the integrity of the skin is impaired. On infected ocular surfaces NETs form an antimicrobial barrier, which prevents bacterial dissemination into the brain. In the oral cavity, NETs display anti-bacterial properties. Although NETs on internal body surfaces like ducts and vessels offer superficial surveillance, exaggerated aggNET formation may directly block vessels and ducts and thus cause thrombi and ductal occlusion, respectively. In the case of biliopancreatic ducts, clogging by aggNETs may even cause acute pancreatitis. Insufficient clearance of apoptotic remnants and NETs can lead to autoimmune diseases or unwanted, chronic inflammation. To prevent this, macrophages cloak dead cells, while apoptotic cells are cleared. We conclude that neutrophils, NETs and aggNETs can be considered double edged swords that orchestrate the innate immune response but carry the risk to precipitate autoimmunity and epithelial damage.

Abstract
Neutrophils are key cells of the immune system and have a decisive role in fighting foreign pathogens in infectious diseases. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) consist of a mesh of DNA enclosing antimicrobial peptides and histones that are released into extracellular space following neutrophil response to a wide range of stimuli, such as pathogens, host-derived mediators and drugs. Neutrophils can remain functional after NET formation and are important for periodontal homeostasis. Periodontitis is an inflammatory multifactorial disease caused by a dysbiosis state between the gingival microbiome and the immune response of the host. The pathogenesis of periodontitis includes an immune-inflammatory component in which impaired NET formation and/or elimination can be involved, contributing to an exacerbated inflammatory reaction and to the destruction of gingival tissue. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge about the role of NETs in the pathogenesis of periodontitis.

Abstract
Neutrophils are major innate immune effector cells for host defense and have been a topic of active research for their participation in the pathogenesis of autoimmune inflammatory diseases including rheumatoid arthritis (RA) due to recently discovered neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation. NET formation and other mechanisms leading to the release of neutrophil nuclear and cytoplasmic contents are implicated as a source of citrullinated antigens in RA. Further investigations are required to delineate what factors diverge neutrophils from host defense to autoimmune response in RA.

Abstract
The association between rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and periodontal disease (PD) has been the focus of numerous investigations driven by their common pathological features. RA is an autoimmune disease characterized by chronic inflammation, the production of anti-citrullinated proteins antibodies (ACPA) leading to synovial joint inflammation and destruction. PD is a chronic inflammatory condition associated with a dysbiotic microbial biofilm affecting the supporting tissues around the teeth leading to the destruction of mineralized and non-mineralized connective tissues. Chronic inflammation associated with both RA and PD is similar in the predominant adaptive immune phenotype, in the imbalance between pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines and in the role of smoking and genetic background as risk factors. Structural damage that occurs in consequence of chronic inflammation is the ultimate cause of loss of function and disability observed with the progression of RA and PD. Interestingly, the periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis has been implicated in the generation of ACPA in RA patients, suggesting a direct biological intersection between PD and RA. However, more studies are warranted to confirm this link, elucidate potential mechanisms involved, and ascertain temporal associations between RA and PD. This review is mainly focused on recent clinical and translational research intends to discuss and provide an overview of the relationship between RA and PD, exploring the similarities in the immune-pathological aspects and the possible mechanisms linking the development and progression of both diseases. In addition, the current available treatments targeting both RA and PD were revised.
