Inflammation 2024:10.1007/s10753-024-02069-4. [PMID: 38961014 DOI: 10.1007/s10753-024-02069-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2024] [Revised: 05/27/2024] [Accepted: 05/28/2024] [Indexed: 07/05/2024]
Abstract
Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) is one of the major pathogens causing periodontitis and apical periodontitis (AP). Long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) can regulate cellular mineralization and inflammatory diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate the role and mechanism of lncRNA in P. gingivalis-stimulated cementoblast mineralization. In vivo, C57BL/6 mice were divided into the healthy, the AP, and AP + P. gingivalis groups (n = six mice per group). Micro computed tomography, immunohistochemistry staining, and fluorescence in situ hybridization were used to observe periapical tissue. In vitro, cementoblasts were treated with osteogenic medium or P. gingivalis. Pluripotency associated transcript 3 (Platr3), interleukin 1 beta (IL1B), and osteogenic markers were analyzed by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and western blot. RNA pull-down and RNA immunoprecipitation assays were used to detect proteins that bind to Platr3. RNA sequencing was performed in Platr3-silenced cementoblasts. In vivo, P. gingivalis promoted periapical tissue destruction and IL1B expression, but inhibited Platr3 expression. In vitro, P. gingivalis facilitated IL1B expression (P < 0.001), whereas suppressed the expression of Platr3 (P < 0.001) and osteogenic markers (P < 0.01 or 0.001). In contrast, Platr3 overexpression alleviated the repressive effect of P. gingivalis on cementoblast mineralization (P < 0.01 or 0.001). Furthermore, Platr3 bound to nudix hydrolase 21 (NUDT21) and regulated the nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling pathway. Knocking down NUDT21 suppressed osteogenic marker expression and activated the above signaling pathway. Collectively, the results elucidated that Platr3 mediated P. gingivalis-suppressed cementoblast mineralization through the NF-κB signaling pathway by binding to NUDT21.

Abstract
AIM Autophagy is involved in human apical periodontitis (AP). However, it is not clear whether autophagy is protective or destructive in bone loss via the receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL)/RANK/osteoprotegerin (OPG) axis. This study aimed to investigate the involvement of autophagy via the RANKL/RANK/OPG axis during the development of AP in an experimental rat model. METHODOLOGY Twenty-four female Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into control, experimental AP (EAP) + saline, and EAP + 3-methyladenine (An autophagy inhibitor, 3-MA) groups. The control group did not receive any treatment. The EAP + saline group and the EAP + 3-MA group received intraperitoneal injections of saline and 3-MA, respectively, starting 1 week after the pulp was exposed. Specimens were collected for microcomputed tomography (micro-CT) scanning, histological processing, and immunostaining to examine the expression of light chain 3 beta (LC3B), RANK, RANKL, and OPG. Data were analysed using one-way analysis of variance (p < .05). RESULTS Micro-CT showed greater bone loss in the EAP + 3-MA group than in the EAP + saline group, indicated by an elevated trabecular space (Tb.Sp) (p < .05). Inflammatory cell infiltration was observed in the EAP + saline and EAP + 3-MA groups. Compared with EAP + saline group, the EAP + 3-MA group showed weaker expression of LC3B (p < .01) and OPG (p < .05), more intense expression of RANK (p < .01) and RANKL (p < .01), and a higher RANKL/OPG ratio (p < .05). CONCLUSION Autophagy may exert a protective effect against AP by regulating the RANKL/RANK/OPG axis, thereby inhibiting excessive bone loss.

Abstract
Alveolar bone, the protruding portion of the maxilla and the mandible that surrounds the roots of teeth, plays an important role in tooth development, eruption, and masticatory performance. In oral inflammatory diseases, including apical periodontitis, periodontitis, and peri-implantitis, alveolar bone defects cause the loosening or loss of teeth, impair the masticatory function, and endanger the physical and mental health of patients. However, alveolar bone restoration is confronted with great clinical challenges due to the the complicated effect of the biological, mechanical, and chemical factors in the oral microenvironment. An in-depth understanding of the underlying molecular regulatory mechanisms will contribute to the exploration of new targets for alveolar bone restoration. Recent studies have shown that Notch, Wnt, Toll-like receptor (TLR), and nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling pathways regulate the proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, and autophagy of osteoclasts, osteoblasts, osteocytes, periodontal ligament cells, macrophages, and adaptive immune cells, modulate the expression of inflammatory mediators, affect the balance of the receptor activator for nuclear factor-κB ligand/receptor activator for nuclear factor-κB/osteoprotegerin (RANKL/RANK/OPG) system, and ultimately participate in alveolar bone restoration. Additionally, alveolar bone restoration involves AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), phosphatidyl inositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/AKT), Hippo/YAP, Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK/STAT), and transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) signaling pathways. However, current studies have failed to construct mature molecular regulatory networks for alveolar bone restoration. There is an urgent need for further research on the molecular regulatory mechanisms of alveolar bone restoration by using new technologies such as single-cell transcriptome sequencing and spatial transcriptome sequencing.

Abstract
Orthodontic treatment is based on complex strategies and takes up to years until a desired therapeutic outcome is accomplished, implying long periods of high costs and discomfort for the patient. Choosing the optimal settings for force intensities in the initial phase of orthodontic tooth movement is the key to successful orthodontic treatment. It is known that orthodontic tooth movement is mainly mediated by tensile and compressive forces that are communicated to the alveolar bone via the periodontal ligament. While the revelation of the complex molecular network was already approached by transcriptomic analysis of compressed periodontal ligament cells, the entity of molecular key players activated by tensile forces remains elusive. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the effect of mechanical tensile forces on the gene expression profile of human primary periodontal ligament stromal cells, mimicking the initial phase of orthodontic tooth movement. A transcriptomic analysis of tension-treated and untreated periodontal ligament stromal cells yielded 543 upregulated and 793 downregulated differentially expressed genes. Finally, six highly significant genes were found in the transcriptome that are related to biological processes with relevance to orthodontic tooth movement, including apelin, fibroblast growth factor receptor 2, noggin, sulfatase 1, secreted frizzled-related protein 4 and stanniocalcin 1. Additionally, differences of gene expression profiles between individual cell donors showed a high effect size. Closer understanding of the roles of the identified candidates in the initial phase of orthodontic tooth movement could help to clarify the underlying mechanisms, which will be essential for the development of personalized treatment strategies in orthodontics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastric cancer (GC) seriously threatens people's health and life quality worldwide. AIM The current study sought to explore prognostic immune genes and their regulatory network in GC. METHODS First, expression data in GC and normal samples were analyzed based on bioinformatics analysis. Immune-related genes were identified and confirmed with univariate/multivariate Cox analysis and receiver-operating characteristic curve. The upstream transcription factors of immune genes were subsequently predicted, and their regulatory network was constructed. GC and adjacent normal tissues were obtained from 76 patients with GC to determine the expression patterns of immune genes and their correlation with overall prognosis. CD8+ T-cell infiltration of patients with high or low risk was detected by means of immunohistochemistry. RESULTS Bioinformatics analysis highlighted 3689 differentially expressed genes in GC, including 87 immune genes, 8 of which were significantly associated with patient survival. CGB5 and INHBA were high-risk genes, while TRAJ19 was identified as a low-risk gene, all of which were found to be regulated by 11 different transcription factors. Furthermore, CGB5 and INHBA exhibited negative correlation with the prognosis of GC patients; however, TRAJ19 was positively correlated with GC patient prognosis. The incidence of lymph node metastasis was higher, the pathological stage was advanced and the infiltrated CD8+ T cells were fewer in the high-risk GC group. CONCLUSIONS Overall, our findings identified the key roles of CGB5, INHBA and TRAJ19 in prognosis GC patients, serving as an important gene set for prognostic prediction.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION To evaluate osteoclastogenesis and dental resorption resulting from endodontic infection in wild-type (WT) and tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 genetically deficient (TNFR1 KO) mice. METHODS After approval by the Ethics Committee on the use of Animals, 40 mice were distributed into two experimental groups based on periods: 14 days (n=10 WT mice; n=10 TNFR1 KO mice) and 42 days (n=10 WT mice; n=10 TNFR1 KO mice). After these periods, morphometrics analysis was done using bright field and fluorescence microscopy and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase histoenzymology to identify osteoclasts. One-way analysis of variance followed by Tukey's post-hoc test was used for the statistical analysis (a=0.05). RESULTS WT mice in the 42-day period had a greater resorption in the apical region distal root of the first molar than TNFR1 KO mice (p<0.05). On the other hand, TNFR1 KO mice showed a smaller number of osteoclasts on the dental surface than WT mice (p<0.05). CONCLUSION WT mice had more extensive bone and apical dental resorptions and a larger number of osteoclasts on the tooth surface than TNFR1 KO mice.

Abstract
Porphyromonas gingivalis is responsible for the destruction of cementum in patients with periodontitis and periapical periodontitis. However, research about the effects of P. gingivalis on cementoblast mineralization and the underlying mechanism is still lacking. Casein kinase 2 interacting protein 1 (Ckip-1) is a scaffold protein that interacts with various proteins and signals to regulate different cell functions, such as cell morphology, apoptosis, and differentiation. In this study, we verified the suppressive effects of P. gingivalis and lipopolysaccharide (Pg-LPS) on OCCM-30 mineralization. We also showed that Ckip-1 gradually decreased during OCCM-30 mineralization but increased with the aggravation of Pg-induced inflammation. However, it remained unchanged when cells were stimulated with Pg-LPS, regardless of the concentration and incubation time. Then, more cellular cementum and enhanced Osterix expression were observed in Ckip-1 knockout mice when compared with the wild-type mice. Meanwhile, Ckip-1 silencing significantly enhanced cementoblast mineralization with or without P. gingivalis-associated inflammation. The trend was opposite when Ckip-1 was overexpressed. Finally, we found that the p38, Akt, and Wnt pathways were activated, while the Erk1/2 pathway was inhibited when Ckip-1 was silenced. The opposite results were also observed in the Ckip-1 overexpression group. Furthermore, we proved that cell mineralization was weakened when p38, Akt inhibitors were applied and strengthened when the Erk1/2 pathway was inhibited. In summary, Ckip-1 is upregulated underP. gingivalis-induced inflammation and negatively regulates cementoblast mineralization partially through mitogen-activated protein kinases and Akt signaling pathways, which may contribute to the restoration of cementum destroyed by P. gingivalis.

Abstract
AIM To explore the mechanism of secreted frizzled-related protein I (sFRP1) involvement in the osteogenic differentiation of human periodontal ligament cells (hPDLCs) under inflammatory conditions. METHODOLOGY hPDLCs were cultured in an osteogenic differentiation-inducing medium (odi) and subjected to the stimulation of Porphyromonas gingivalis lipopolysaccharide (P. gingivalis LPS) with or without the inhibition of sFRP1. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, Western blot and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay were carried out to evaluate the expression of osteogenic markers as well as the classic Wnt signalling pathway. Periapical periodontitis was induced in Wistar rats to further confirm the effect of sFRP1 inhibitor on bone loss in vivo. After the Shapiro-Wilk normality test, data were analysed by Student's paired t-test or one-way Anova test with a P value less than 0.05 as the level of statistical significance. RESULTS Significantly decreased mRNA and protein expression of osteogenic markers were detected in hPDLCs treated with P. gingivalis LPS during osteogenic induction (P < 0.001). Increased expression of sFRP1 was observed (P < 0.01), whilst Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway was inhibited by the addition of P. gingivalis LPS (P < 0.01). After the addition of the sFRP1 inhibitor, the decrease of osteogenic markers (P < 0.05) and the inhibition of Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway (P < 0.05) were reversed significantly. The animal experiment further confirmed that the sFRP1 inhibitor significantly reduced bone loss of periapical lesions in vivo (P < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS Wnt antagonist sFRP1 was involved in the osteogenic differentiation of hPDLCs under inflammation. Modulation of the Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway through the inhibition of sFRP1 may offer a new perspective on the treatment of chronic apical periodontitis.
