Mechanisms of sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) signaling on excessive stress-induced root resorption during orthodontic molar intrusion. Clin Oral Investig 2021; 26:1003-1016. [PMID: 34363103 DOI: 10.1007/s00784-021-04084-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2020] [Accepted: 07/15/2021] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate cementocyte mechanotransduction during excessive orthodontic intrusive force-induced root resorption and the role of S1P signaling in this process. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifty-four 12-week-old male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: control group (Control), intrusive stress application group (Stress), and intrusive stress together with S1PR2-specific antagonist injection group (Stress + JTE). A rat molar intrusion model was established on animals in the Stress and the Stress + JTE groups. The animals in the Stress + JTE group received daily intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of S1PR2 antagonist JTE-013, while the Control and Stress groups received only the vehicle. Histomorphometric, immunohistochemical, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blot analyses were performed after euthanizing of the rats. RESULTS Root resorption was promoted in the Stress group with increased volumes of resorption pits and amounts of molar intrusion compared with the Control group. The expression levels of cementogenic- and cementoclastic-related factors were affected under excessive intrusive force. Immunohistochemical staining and qRT-PCR analysis showed promoted S1P signaling activities during molar intrusion. Western blot analysis indicated decreased nuclear translocation of β-catenin under excessive intrusive force. Through the administration of JTE-013, S1P signaling activity was suppressed and excessive intrusive force-induced root resorption was reversed. The regulation of S1P signaling could also influence the nuclear translocation of β-catenin and the expressions of cementogenic- and cementoclastic-related factors. CONCLUSIONS Root resorption was promoted under excessive orthodontic intrusive force due to the disruption of cementum homeostasis. S1P signaling pathway might play an important role in cementocyte mechanotransduction in this process. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The S1P signaling might be a promising therapeutic target for novel therapeutic approaches to prevent external root resorption caused by excessive orthodontic intrusive force.

Three-dimensional imaging and molecular analysis of the effects of photobiomodulation and mechanical vibration on orthodontic retention treatment in rats : Effects of photobiomodulation and mechanical vibration on orthodontic retention treatment. J Orofac Orthop 2021; 83:24-41. [PMID: 34009424 DOI: 10.1007/s00056-021-00296-0] [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: 10/26/2020] [Accepted: 03/15/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE We aimed to evaluate and compare effects of photobiomodulation (PBM) and low-magnitude high-frequency mechanical vibration (HFMV) on orthodontic retention. METHODS Sixty-four female Wistar albino rats were divided into 9 groups (2 negative and positive controls each, 3 PBM and 2 HFMV groups) and studied for 25 days. In the experimental groups, closed nickel-titanium closed coil springs with a 50 cN force were placed for 10 days between the maxillary incisor and molar. PBM and HFMV were applied daily over long- (15 days) and short-term (7 days) retention periods. The PBM groups received PBM with a single wavelength (650 nm) or higher wavelengths (532, 650, 940 nm) for 9 min per day. HFMV groups received HFMV of 10, 20, and 30 Hz for 10 min per day. Right and left maxilla were assessed using micro-computed tomography imaging and real-time polymerase chain reaction. The amount of tooth movement during the retention period, expression levels of cyclooxygenase‑2 (COX-2), osteoprotegerin (OPG), and receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligand (RANKL) mRNA gene expression levels, OPG/RANKL ratios, alveolar bone trabecular thickness (Tb.Th), trabecular number (Tb.N), and structure model index were analyzed. Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney U tests were used for multiple comparisons of the nonparametric distributed data and binary comparisons, respectively. RESULTS When using the long-term retention protocol, PBM and HFMV treatment increased Tb.N (p < 0.05) and decreased COX‑2 mRNA gene expression levels (p < 0.05) and Tb.Th (p < 0.05) compared to controls. For short-term retention, PBM and HFMV decreased the amount of relapse tooth movement compared to controls. In addition, Tb.Th (p < 0.05) and the mRNA gene expression levels of COX‑2 and RANKL (p < 0.05) were decreased. CONCLUSION PBM and HFMV might be able to support retention after orthodontic tooth movement by reducing bone resorption and increasing bone quality.

Abstract
Intermittent parathyroid hormone (PTH) promotes periodontal repair, but the underlying mechanisms remained unclear. Recent studies found that ephrinB2-EPHB4 forward signaling mediated the anabolic effect of PTH in bone homeostasis. Considering the similarities between cementum and bone, we aimed to examine the therapeutic effect of PTH on resorbed roots and explore the role of forward signaling in this process. In vivo experiments showed that intermittent PTH significantly accelerated the regeneration of root resorption and promoted expression of EPHB4 and ephrinB2. When the signaling was blocked, the resorption repair was also delayed. In vitro studies showed that intermittent PTH promoted the expression of EPHB4 and ephrinB2 in OCCM-30 cells. The effects of PTH on the mineralization capacity of OCCM-30 cells was mediated through the ephrinB2-EPHB4 forward signaling. These results support the premise that the anabolic effects of intermittent PTH on the regeneration of root resorption is via the ephrinB2-EPHB4 forward signaling pathway.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study aimed to investigate the effect of EphB4/ephrinB2 signaling on orthodontically-induced root resorption repair and the possible molecular mechanism behind it. METHODS Seventy-two 6-week-old male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: blank control group, physiological regeneration group (PHY), and EphB4 inhibitor local injection group (INH). A root repair model was built on experimental rats of the PHY and INH groups. The animals in the INH groups received a daily periodontal local injection of EphB4 inhibitor NVP-BHG712, whereas the blank control group and PHY groups received only the vehicle. RESULTS Histologic staining and microcomputed tomography analysis showed that root regeneration was inhibited in the INH group compared with the PHY group with a greater number of osteoclasts. Immunohistochemical staining showed active EphB4/ephrinB2 signaling activities during root regeneration. The cementogenesis-related factors cementum attachment protein, alkaline phosphatase, osteopontin, and runt-related transcription factor 2, and osteoclastic-related factors RANKL and osteoprotegerin were affected by regulated EphB4/ephrinB2 signaling. CONCLUSIONS These findings demonstrated that the EphB4/ephrinB2 signaling might be a promising therapeutic target for novel therapeutic approaches to reduce orthodontically-induced root resorption through enhancement of cementogenesis.

[PMID: 32818660 DOI: 10.1016/j.aanat.2020.151585] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2020] [Revised: 07/03/2020] [Accepted: 07/22/2020] [Indexed: 01/20/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug etoricoxib is the most highly selective inhibitor of cyclooxygenase-2 available (344:1) and has been approved for postoperative pain therapy following dental interventions in Europe. At clinically relevant doses it has been reported to only have marginal effects on the velocity of orthodontic tooth movement (OTM). Its effects on associated dental root resorptions, osteoclastogenesis, trabecular number in the alveolar bone and periodontal bone loss during OTM, however, have not yet been investigated. MATERIAL AND METHODS 40 male Fischer344 rats were divided into four groups: 1.5ml tap water/day p.o. (control, 1), additional 7.8mg/kg/day etoricoxib (normal dose) for three (2) or seven (3) days/week and 13.1mg/kg/day (high dose) for seven days/week, respectively (4). After a week of premedication, OTM in anterior direction of the first left upper molar was performed for 28 days by means of a nickel-titanium coil spring (0.25N). We quantified OTM-associated dental root resorptions, osteoclastogenesis, trabecular number and periodontal bone loss by histomorphometrical, histochemical and μCT analyses of the disected tooth-bearing upper jaw sections. RESULTS After 28 days of OTM, associated reduction of trabecular number seemed to be slightly alleviated by high doses of etoricoxib, whereas no significant other etoricoxib effects in the doses administered could be detected regarding OTM-induced or -associated dental root resorptions, osteoclastogenesis or periodontal bone loss. CONCLUSIONS Dental root resorptions, osteoclastogenesis and periodontal bone loss during OTM in rats were not significantly affected by etoricoxib in the clinically relevant dosages investigated with only a slight inhibitory effect on bone remodelling to be expected at high dosages. Etoricoxib is therefore not suitable for the prevention of these detrimental effects, but could be a suitable analgesic during OTM, as it has been reported not to affect tooth movement.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study aimed to investigate the effects of estrogen on root repair after orthodontically induced root resorption. METHODS Seventy-two 6-week-old female Wistar rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: ovariectomy only (OVX), ovariectomy plus estradiol injection (OVX + E2), and sham operation (control). E2 was administrated to all the experimental animals after the establishment of the root repair model. One-way analysis of variance with the Tukey post-hoc test was used to analyze the experimental results. RESULTS Micro-computed tomography and hematoxylin and eosin staining showed that the total volumes of resorption lacunae were significantly smaller in the control and OVX + E2 groups than those in the OVX group. Alkaline phosphatase and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase stainings suggested that the cementoblastic activities and the amount of new cementum formation were inhibited while the activities of osteoclasts were obvious in the OVX group. The immunohistochemistry stainings revealed that the osteoprotegerin to receptor activator of nuclear factor-кB ligand ratio and the phosphorylated extracellular signal-regulated kinases to extracellular signal-regulated kinases ratio of the control and OVX + E2 groups were significantly greater than those of the OVX group. CONCLUSIONS These findings demonstrated that estrogen administration might be a solution to reduce orthodontically induced root resorption through the activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase-1/2 pathway and enhancement of cementogenesis.

Abstract
3D analysis of animal or human whole teeth and alveolar bone can be performed with high sensitivity in a nondestructive manner by microcomputed tomography. Here we describe the protocols to be followed for the most common applications in the developmental studies of dental and craniofacial tissues. Emphasis is placed on the basis of choosing settings for image acquisition, such as voxel resolution (Fig. 1), or beam energy (Fig. 2) and for processing, such as segmentation method (Fig. 3), parameters. The limitations to take into account for optimal efficiency and image quality are also explained.

Abstract
Periodontitis is based on a complex inflammatory over-response combined with possible genetic predisposition factors. The RANKL/RANK/OPG signaling pathway is implicated in bone resorption through its key function in osteoclast differentiation and activation, as well as in the inflammatory response. This central element of osteo-immunology has been suggested to be perturbed in several diseases, including periodontitis, as it is a predisposing factor for this disease. The aim of the present study was to validate this hypothesis using a transgenic mouse line, which over-expresses RANK (RTg) and develops a periodontitis-like phenotype at 5 months of age. RTg mice exhibited severe alveolar bone loss, an increased number of TRAP positive cells, and disorganization of periodontal ligaments. This phenotype was more pronounced in females. We also observed dental root resorption lacunas. Hyperplasia of the gingival epithelium, including Malassez epithelial rests, was visible as early as 25 days, preceding any other symptoms. These results demonstrate that perturbations of the RANKL/RANK/OPG system constitute a core element of periodontitis, and more globally, osteo-immune diseases.

Abstract
Craniofacial bone defects are challenging problems for maxillofacial surgeons over the years. With the development of cell and molecular biology, gene therapy is a breaking new technology with the aim of regenerating tissues by acting as a delivery system for therapeutic genes in the craniofacial region rather than treating genetic disorders. A systematic review was conducted summarizing the articles reporting gene therapy in maxillofacial surgery to answer the question: Was gene therapy successfully applied to regenerate bone in the maxillofacial region? Electronic searching of online databases was performed in addition to hand searching of the references of included articles. No language or time restrictions were enforced. Meta-analysis was done to assess significant bone formation after delivery of gene material in the surgically induced maxillofacial defects. The search identified 2081 articles, of which 57 were included with 1726 animals. Bone morphogenetic proteins were commonly used proteins for gene therapy. Viral vectors were the universally used vectors. Sprague-Dawley rats were the frequently used animal model in experimental studies. The quality of the articles ranged from excellent to average. Meta-analysis results performed on 21 articles showed that defects favored bone formation by gene therapy. Funnel plot showed symmetry with the absence of publication bias. Gene therapy is on the top list of innovative strategies that developed in the last 10 years with the hope of developing a simple chair-side protocol in the near future, combining improvement of gene delivery as well as knowledge of the molecular basis of oral and maxillofacial structures.

Abstract
Introduction Knowledge about macro- and micro-structural characteristics may improve in vivo estimation of the quality and quantity of regenerated bone tissue. For this reason, micro-CT imaging has been applied to evaluate alveolar bone remodelling, alterations of periodontal ligament thickness and cortical and trabecular bone changes in rodent jaw bones. In this paper, we provide a systematic review on the available micro-CT literature on jaw bone micro-architecture. Methodology A detailed search through the PubMed database was performed. Articles published up to December 2013 and related to maxilla, mandible and condyle with quantitatively analysed bone micro-architectural parameters were considered eligible for inclusion. Two reviewers assessed the search results according to inclusion criteria designed to identify animal studies quantifying the bone micro-architecture of the jaw rodent bones in physiological or drug-induced disease status, or in response to interventions such as mechanical loading, hormonal treatment and other metabolic alterations. Finally, the reporting quality of the included publications was evaluated using the tailored ARRIVE guidelines outlined by Vignoletti and Abrahamsson (2012). Results Database search, additional manual searching and assessment of the inclusion and exclusion criteria retrieved 127 potentially relevant articles. Eventually, 14 maxilla, 20 mandible and 12 condyle articles with focus on bone healing were retained, and were analysed together with 3 methodological papers. Each study was described systematically in terms of subject, experimental intervention, follow-up period, selected region of interest used in the micro-CT analysis, parameters quantified, micro-CT scanner device and software. The evidence level evaluated by the ARRIVE guidelines showed high mean scores (between 18 and 25; range: 0–25), indicating that most of the selected studies are well-reported. The major obstacles identified were related to sample size calculation, absence of adverse event descriptions, randomization or blinding procedures. Conclusions The evaluated studies are highly heterogeneous in terms of research topic and the different regions of interest. These results illustrate the need for a standardized methodology in micro-CT analysis. While the analysed studies do well according to the ARRIVE guidelines, the micro-CT procedure is often insufficiently described. Therefore we recommend to extend the ARRIVE guidelines for micro-CT studies. This review investigates discrepancies between reports using micro-CT imaging of rodent jaw bone, the applied methodology and reported results. Knowledge about the bone micro-architecture of the rodent jaw is scarce. Jaw bone micro-architecture varies according to ROI selections and the methodology applied to define a specific region are insufficient.

[PMID: 25628089 PMCID: PMC4347420 DOI: 10.1590/2176-9451.19.6.123-133.sar] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2014] [Accepted: 10/14/2014] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
Modulation of orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) is desirable not only to patients because it shortens treatment time, but also to orthodontists, since treatment duration is associated with increased risk of gingival inflammation, decalcification, dental caries, and root resorption. The increased focus on the biological basis of tooth movement has rendered Orthodontics a more comprehensive specialty that incorporates facets of all fields of medicine. Current knowledge raises the possibility of using new therapeutic modalities for modulation of OTM, such as corticotomy, laser therapy, vibration (low-intensity pulsed ultrasound), local injections of biomodulators and gene therapy; with the latter being applicable in the near future. They are intended to enhance or inhibit recruitment, differentiation and/or activation of bone cells, accelerate or reduce OTM, increase stability of orthodontic results, as well as assist with the prevention of root resorption. This article summarizes recent studies on each one of these therapeutic modalities, provides readers with information about how they affect OTM and points out future clinical perspectives.

Abstract
Mechanical force-induced orthodontic root resorption is a major clinical challenge in orthodontic treatment. Macrophages play an important role in orthodontic root resorption, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we examined the mechanism by which the ratio of M1 to M2 macrophage polarization affects root resorption during orthodontic tooth movement. Root resorption occurred when nickel-titanium coil springs were applied on the upper first molars of rats for 3 to 14 d. Positively stained odontoclasts or osteoclasts with tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase were found in resorption areas. Meanwhile, M1-like macrophages positive for CD68 and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) persistently accumulated on the compression side of periodontal tissues. In addition, the expressions of the M1 activator interferon-γ and the M1-associated pro-inflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α were upregulated on the compression side of periodontal tissues. When the coil springs were removed at the 14th day after orthodontic force application, root resorption was partially rescued. The number of CD68(+)CD163(+) M2-like macrophages gradually increased on the compression side of periodontal tissues. The levels of M2 activator interleukin (IL)-4 and the M2-associated anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 also increased. Systemic injection of the TNF-α inhibitor etanercept or IL-4 attenuated the severity of root resorption and decreased the ratio of M1 to M2 macrophages. These data imply that the balance between M1 and M2 macrophages affects orthodontic root resorption. Root resorption was aggravated by an enhanced M1/M2 ratio but was partially rescued by a reduced M1/M2 ratio.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of osteoprotegerin (OPG) gene therapy on alveolar bone resorption caused by experimental periodontitis in rats, thus forming a foundation for potential clinical applications of OPG gene therapy in the treatment of periodontitis and peri-implantitis. MATERIAL AND METHODS To study the effects of OPG on alveolar bone protection, an experimental periodontitis model was used by placing a bacterial plaque retentive silk ligature in the gingival sulcus around the maxillary second molar tooth, injection of Porphyromonas gingivalis and high carbohydrate diet. A total of 30 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into three groups, with 10 rats in each group: group I (control) was treated with 10 μL normal saline injection; group II with 10 μL mock vector; and group III with 10 μL local OPG gene transfer by transfection with in vitro constructed pcDNA3.1-human OPG (pcDNA3.1-hOPG). A subperiosteal injection was done adjacent to the second molars on days 0, 7, 14 and 21. Four weeks later, all animals were killed and radiographic, histological and immunohistochemical examinations were performed. Statistical analysis included ANOVA and LSD-Bonferroni test. RESULTS Group III (OPG gene therapy) had significantly enhanced (p < 0.05) integrated optical density of OPG, had significantly decreased alveolar bone resorption volume and active osteoclast number (p < 0.05) through descriptive histological examination when compared with the other two groups at week 4. CONCLUSION Local recombinant OPG plasmid-mediated gene therapy suppresses osteoclastogenesis in vivo and inhibits alveolar bone height reduction caused by experimental periodontitis in rats. OPG gene therapy may be beneficial in preventing progressive periodontal bone loss.
