Substance P/calcitonin gene-related peptide and their receptors expression in human periodontal ligament after root canal preparation with five different systems. Int Endod J 2024; 57:576-585. [PMID: 38294105 DOI: 10.1111/iej.14035] [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: 10/16/2023] [Revised: 01/09/2024] [Accepted: 01/16/2024] [Indexed: 02/01/2024]
Abstract
AIM The purpose of this study was to quantify the effect of five different root canal preparation instruments on Substance P (SP), Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and their receptors expression in healthy human periodontal ligament. METHODOLOGY STROBE guidelines were used to design a study using 60 periodontal ligament samples obtained from healthy lower premolars where extraction was indicated for orthodontic reasons. Prior to extraction 40 of these premolars were equally divided into four groups and root canals were prepared using different systems: Mtwo, Reciproc Blue, HyFlex EDM and Plex-V. Ten premolars were prepared with hand files and served as a positive control group. The remaining 10 premolars where extracted without treatment and served as a negative control group. All periodontal ligament samples were processed to measure the expression of SP, CGRP and their receptors by radioimmunoassay. Kruskal-Wallis and Duncan tests were performed to determine statistically significant differences between the groups for each variable. RESULTS Greater expression of all the peptides measured were found in the hand-file preparation group, followed by the Reciproc Blue, Mtwo, HyFlex EDM and Plex-V groups. The lower SP, CGRP and their receptors values were for the intact teeth control group. Kruskal-Wallis test showed statistically significant differences amongst groups (p < .001). Dunn post-hoc tests showed statistically significant differences in SP, CGRP and their receptors expression between the intact teeth and the hand-file and Reciproc Blue groups. Hand-file group showed significant differences with the other groups, except with Reciproc Blue, where no differences were observed in any of the peptides measured. Finally, no differences were observed between Plex-V and HyFlex in any of the peptides measured. CONCLUSIONS Root canal preparation with hand files and Reciproc Blue generates the highest expression of SP, CGRP, NK1 and CGRP1R in human periodontal ligament, whilst Plex-V and HyFlex maintain the basal expression of neuropeptides and their receptors. Mtwo showed intermediate results between Reciproc Blue and HyFlex.

Abstract
By correctly repositioning teeth, orthodontic therapy improves both the function and appearance of an occlusion. The relationship between teeth and the tissues that surround and support them significantly influences these alterations. With ever more adults seeking orthodontic care, orthodontists are increasingly seeing patients with periodontal issues. Concerns about the patient's appearance, such as uneven gingival margins or functional issues caused by inflammatory periodontal diseases, should be accounted for when designing orthodontic treatment plans. Furthermore, orthodontics may increase the chances of saving and recovering a degraded dentition in cases of severe periodontitis. Today, general dentists, dontists, and orthodontists play integrative roles that enable them to achieve the best possible results for their patients. This review will improve the results of interdisciplinary treatments and increase cooperation between dental specialists by drawing attention to the essential connection between orthodontics and periodontics in regular clinical practice.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pulp calcification (PC) often appears in strong association with nerve fiber bundles, which indicates the important role of dental nerves in the formation of PC. Additionally, given that sensory nerves and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) secreted from sensory nerve fibers are involved in physiological and pathological bone formation, we aimed to determine whether chronic irritation of sensory nerves can promote the occurrence of PC. METHODS A sensory nerve irritation rat model was established via ligation of the inferior alveolar nerve (IAN), and face grooming behavior was analyzed as a measure of pain sensation. Two months post-surgery, PC was determined by imaging and histologic analyses. RESULTS Rats in the IAN-chronic constriction injury (IAN-CCI) group showed spontaneous pain-associated behavior after the operations and pain tolerance on the 60th postoperative day. The imaging and histological analysis showed more calcified particles in the IAN-innervated first and second molars after day 60 of the dental sensory nerve irritation. These calcified masses had a dentin-like structure that contained sparse, irregularly oriented tubules. Compared to the control and sham groups, the odontoblasts located in the periphery of radicular pulp aligned along a thicker layer of predentin; which expressed more nestin with longer and stouter processes in the IAN-CCI group. Additionally, more CGRP-positive nerves were observed in the IAN-CCI group. CONCLUSIONS Irritation of sensory nerves promotes PC formation, and the increased density of CGRP-immunolabeled fibers probably contributes to this process. This highlights the significance of dental sensory nerves in the formation of PC.

Neural Regulations in Tooth Development and Tooth-Periodontium Complex Homeostasis: A Literature Review. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms232214150. [PMID: 36430624 PMCID: PMC9698398 DOI: 10.3390/ijms232214150] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2022] [Revised: 11/10/2022] [Accepted: 11/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
The tooth-periodontium complex and its nerves have active reciprocal regulation during development and homeostasis. These effects are predominantly mediated by a range of molecules secreted from either the nervous system or the tooth-periodontium complex. Different strategies mimicking tooth development or physiological reparation have been applied to tooth regeneration studies, where the application of these nerve- or tooth-derived molecules has been proven effective. However, to date, basic studies in this field leave many vacancies to be filled. This literature review summarizes the recent advances in the basic studies on neural responses and regulation during tooth-periodontium development and homeostasis and points out some research gaps to instruct future studies. Deepening our understanding of the underlying mechanisms of tooth development and diseases will provide more clues for tooth regeneration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In this review, we analyzed the existing literature to elucidate how the hypoxia-dependent angiogenic processes work in dental pulp. Angiogenesis is an essential biological process in the maturation and homeostasis of teeth. It involves multiple sequential steps such as endothelial cell proliferation and migration, cell-to-cell contact, and tube formation. HIGHLIGHT Clinical implications of understanding the process of angiogenesis include how the mineralization processes of dental pulp occur and how dental pulp maintains its homeostasis, preventing irreversible inflammation or necrosis. CONCLUSION The angiogenesis process in dental pulp regulates adequate concentrations of oxygen required for mineralization in root development and defense mechanisms against chronic stimuli.

Abstract
Migraine is the most common neurological disorder in the world, affecting 12% of the population. Migraine involves the central nervous system, trigeminal nerves and meninges. Recent advances have shown that targeting calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) through either antibodies or small molecule receptor antagonists is effective at reducing episodic and chronic migraine episodes, but these therapeutics are not effective in all patients. This suggests that migraine does not have a singular molecular cause but is likely due to dysregulated physiology of multiple mechanisms. An often-overlooked part of migraine is the potential involvement of the immune system. Clinical studies have shown that migraine patients may have dysregulation in their immune system, with abnormal plasma cytokine levels either during the attack or at baseline. In addition, those who are immunocompromised appear to be at a higher risk of migraine-like disorders. A recent study showed that migraine caused changes to transcription of immune genes in the blood, even following treatment with sumatriptan. The dura mater is densely packed with macrophages, mast and dendritic cells, and they have been found to associate with meningeal blood vessels and trigeminal afferent endings. Recent work in mice shows activation and morphological changes of these cells in rodents following the migraine trigger cortical spreading depression. Importantly, each of these immune cell types can respond directly to CGRP. Since immune cells make up a large portion of the dura, have functional responses to CGRP, and interact with trigeminal afferents, CGRP actions on the dural immune system are likely to play key roles in migraine.
