Abstract
The application of bioengineering techniques for achieving bone regeneration in the oral environment is an increasingly prominent field. However, the clinical use of synthetic materials carries certain risks. The liquid phase of concentrated growth factor (LPCGF), as a biologically derived material, exhibits superior biocompatibility. In this study, LPCGF was employed as a tissue engineering scaffold, hosting dental follicle cells (DFCs) to facilitate bone regeneration. Both in vivo and in vitro experimental results demonstrate that this platform significantly enhances the expression of osteogenic markers in DFCs, such as alkaline phosphatase (ALP), runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), and type I collagen (Col1a1). Simultaneously, it reduces the expression of inflammation-related genes, particularly interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interleukin-8 (IL-8), thereby alleviating the negative impact of the inflammatory microenvironment on DFCs. Further investigation into potential mechanisms reveals that this process is regulated over time by the WNT pathway. Our research results demonstrate that LPCGF, with its favorable physical characteristics, holds great potential as a scaffold. It can effectively carry DFCs, thereby providing an optimal initial environment for bone regeneration. Furthermore, LPCGF endeavors to closely mimic the mechanisms of bone healing post-trauma to facilitate bone formation. This offers new perspectives and insights into bone regeneration engineering.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate the mechanism of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) in the osteogenic differentiation of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) from periodontitis patients. METHODS Differentially m6A-methylated lncRNA/mRNA profiles were detected by a m6A epitranscriptomic microarray. Bioinformatics analysis was performed by Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analysis. The transfection efficiency of the lentivirus was detected. The osteogenic activity of PDLSCs from periodontitis patients (PPDLSCs) was assessed. RESULTS The microarray results showed that 275 lncRNAs and 1292 mRNAs were significantly differentially methylated between PPDLSCs and PDLSCs from healthy people. Among those lncRNAs, lncRNA4114 (transcript_ID: ENST00000444114) showed both reduced m6A methylation levels and expression levels in PPDLSCs. Further bioinformatics analysis predicted that the differentially methylated mRNAs were mainly involved in cell interaction, stem cell pluripotency, and osteogenic differentiation signals. Then, overexpression of methyltransferase like 3 (METTL3) promoted the osteogenic differentiation of PPDLSCs, while knocking down METTL3 showed an inhibitory effect. Furthermore, METTL3 overexpression promotes the stability of lncRNA4114 to upregulate the expression level. Moreover, lncRNA4114 overexpression promoted the osteogenic differentiation of PPDLSCs. CONCLUSION METTL3 promotes the osteogenic differentiation of PPDLSCs by regulating the stability of lncRNA4114.

Stem Cell Res Ther 2023; 14:177. [PMID: 37434256 DOI: 10.1186/s13287-023-03404-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2022] [Accepted: 05/14/2022] [Indexed: 07/13/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The osteogenic differentiation capacity of periodontal mesenchymal stem cells (PDLSCs) can be influenced by different levels of static mechanical strain (SMS) in an inflammatory microenvironment. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in various physiological processes. However, the mechanisms by which lncRNAs regulate the osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs remain unclear. METHODS We investigated the responses of PDLSCs obtained from periodontitis patients and healthy people to 8% and 12%SMS. Gene microarray and bioinformatics analyses were implemented and identified lncRNA00638 as a target gene for the osteogenesis of PDLSCs from periodontitis patients under SMS. Competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network analysis was applied and predicted interactions among lncRNA00638, miRNA-424-5p, and fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1). Gene expression levels were regulated by lentiviral vectors. Cell Counting Kit-8 assays, alkaline phosphatase assays, and Alizarin Red S staining were used to examine the osteogenic potential. RT-qPCR and Western blot were performed to detect the expression levels of related genes and proteins. RESULTS We found that 8% and 12% SMS exerted distinct effects on HPDLSCs and PPDLSCs, with 12% SMS having the most significant effect. By microarray analysis, we detected differentially expressed lncRNAs/mRNAs between 12% SMS strained and static PPDLSCs, among which lncRNA00638 was detected as a positive target gene to promote the osteogenic differentiation of PPDLSCs under SMS loading. Mechanistically, lncRNA00638 may act as a ceRNA for miR-424-5p to compete with FGFR1. In this process, lncRNA00638 and miR-424-5p suppress each other and form a network to regulate FGFR1. CONCLUSIONS Our findings demonstrate that the lncRNA00638/miRNA-424-5p/FGFR1 regulatory network is actively involved in the regulation of PDLSC osteogenic differentiation from periodontitis patients under SMS loading, which may provide evidence for optimizing orthodontic treatments in patients with periodontitis.

Abstract
The teeth are vertebrate-specific, highly specialized organs performing fundamental functions of mastication and speech, the maintenance of which is crucial for orofacial homeostasis and is further linked to systemic health and human psychosocial well-being. However, with limited ability for self-repair, the teeth can often be impaired by traumatic, inflammatory, and progressive insults, leading to high prevalence of tooth loss and defects worldwide. Regenerative medicine holds the promise to achieve physiological restoration of lost or damaged organs, and in particular an evolving framework of developmental engineering has pioneered functional tooth regeneration by harnessing the odontogenic program. As a key event of tooth morphogenesis, mesenchymal condensation dictates dental tissue formation and patterning through cellular self-organization and signaling interaction with the epithelium, which provides a representative to decipher organogenetic mechanisms and can be leveraged for regenerative purposes. In this review, we summarize how mesenchymal condensation spatiotemporally assembles from dental stem cells (DSCs) and sequentially mediates tooth development. We highlight condensation-mimetic engineering efforts and mechanisms based on ex vivo aggregation of DSCs, which have achieved functionally robust and physiologically relevant tooth regeneration after implantation in animals and in humans. The discussion of this aspect will add to the knowledge of development-inspired tissue engineering strategies and will offer benefits to propel clinical organ regeneration.

Abstract
Large bone defect reconstruction undergoes hypoxia and remains a major practical challenge. Bone tissue engineering with a more promising stem cell source facilitates the development of better therapeutic outcomes. Human dental follicle stem cells (hDFSCs) with superior multipotency, osteogenic capacity, and accessibility have been proven a promising cell source for bone regeneration. We previously identified a novel long noncoding RNA (lncRNA), HOTAIRM1, to be highly expressed in hDFSCs. Here we found that HOTAIRM1 overexpressed hDFSCs promoted bone regeneration in rat critical-size calvarial defect model. Mechanically, HOTAIRM1 was induced in hDFSCs under hypoxic conditions and activated HIF-1α. RNA-sequencing analysis indicated that HOTAIRM1 upregulated oxygen-sensing histone demethylases KDM6A/B and suppressed methyltransferase EZH2 via targeting HIF-1α. The osteogenic differentiation of hDFSCs was accompanied with demethylation of H3K27, and HOTAIRM1 overexpression decreased the distribution of H3K27me3 in osteogenic genes, including ALP, M-CSF, Wnt-3a, Wnt-5a, Wnt-7a, and β-catenin, thus promoted their transcription. Our study provided evidence that HOTAIRM1 upregulated KDM6A/B and inhibited EZH2 in a HIF-1α dependent manner to enhance the osteogenesis of hDFSCs. HOTAIRM1-mediated hDFSCs may serve as a promising therapeutic approach to promote bone regeneration in clinical practice.

Dental Follicle Stem Cells Promote Periodontal Regeneration through Periostin-Mediated Macrophage Infiltration and Reprogramming in an Inflammatory Microenvironment. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24076353.

Abstract
Dental follicle stem cells (DFSCs) have been verified to promote periodontal regeneration in an inflammatory microenvironment. When coping with inflammatory stimulation, DFSCs highly express periostin, a bioactive molecule closely related to periodontal homeostasis. It is worth exploring whether and how periostin plays a role in the promotion of periodontal regeneration by DFSCs. By tracking the fate of DFSCs, it was found that DFSCs significantly contributed to periodontal regeneration in rat periodontal defects while they had a low survival rate. They highly expressed periostin and improved the immune microenvironment in the defect area, especially via the recruitment and reprogramming of macrophages. Silencing periostin attenuated the effects of DFSCs in promoting periodontal regeneration and regulating macrophages. Recombinant human periostin (rhPeriostin) could not only directly promote macrophage reprogramming through the integrin αM/phosphorylated extracellular signal-regulated kinase (p-Erk)/Erk signaling pathway, but it also exhibited the potential to promote periodontal regeneration in rats when loaded in a collagen matrix. These results indicated that periostin is actively involved in the process by which DFSCs promote periodontal regeneration through the regulation of macrophages and is a promising molecular agent to promote periodontal regeneration. This study provides new insight into the mechanism by which DFSCs promote periodontal regeneration and suggests a new approach for periodontal regeneration therapy.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a widespread inflammatory condition, characterized by a progressive deterioration of the supporting structures of the teeth. Due to the complexity of periodontal tissue and the surrounding inflammatory microenvironment, the repair of lesions at this level represents a continuous challenge. The regeneration of periodontal tissues is considered a promising strategy. Stem cells have remarkable properties, such as immunomodulatory potential, proliferation, migration, and multilineage differentiation. Thus, they can be used to repair tissue damage and reduce inflammation, potentially leading to periodontal regeneration. Among the stem cells used for periodontal regeneration, we studied dental mesenchymal stem cells (DMSCs), non-dental stem cells, and induced pluripotent stem cells (IPSCs). Although these cells have well documented important physiological characteristics, their use in contemporary practice to repair the affected periodontium is still a challenge.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cell sheet technique using mesenchymal stem cells is a high-level strategy in periodontal regenerative medicine. Although recent studies have shown the role of MSCSs in increased dental supporting tissues and bone, there is no systematic review focused specifically on assessing periodontal regeneration in orthotopic animal models. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the potential of mesenchymal stem cell sheets (MSCSs) on periodontal regeneration, compared to control, in experimental animal models Methods: Pre-clinical studies in periodontal defects of animal models were considered eligible. The electronic search included the MEDLINE, Web of Science, EMBASE and LILACS databases. The review was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Item for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses statement guidelines. RESULTS A total of 17 of the 3989 studies obtained from the electronic database search were included. MSCSs included dental follicle (DF) MSCSs, periodontal ligament (PL) MSCSs, dental pulp (DP) MSCSs, bone marrow (BM) MSCSs, alveolar periosteal (AP) MSCSs and gingival (G) MSCSs. Regarding cell sheet inducing protocol, most of the studies used ascorbic acid (52.94%). Others used culture dishes grafted with a temperature-responsive polymer (47.06%). Adverse effects were not identified in the majority of studies. Meta-analysis was not considered because of methodological heterogeneities. PDL-MSCSs were superior for periodontal regeneration enhancement compared to the control, but in an induced inflammatory microenvironment, DF-MSCSs were better. Moreover, DF-MSCSs, DP-MSCSs, and BM-MSCSs showed improved results compared to the control. CONCLUSION MSCSs can improve periodontal regeneration in animal periodontal defect models.

Abstract
Periodontal ligament (PDL) cells help maintain tissue homeostasis by balancing PDL tissue inflammation and regeneration. However, the mechanisms by which interferon γ (IFNγ) modulate this process are not yet fully understood. The present study aimed to examine the effect of primed and non-primed PDL cells with IFNγ on the viability and differentiation of T lymphocytes and its functional consequences. The results showed that IFNγ-primed PDL cells possessed enhanced immunosuppression by suppressing T-lymphocyte viability and directing T-lymphocyte differentiation towards a higher T helper (Th) Th2/Th1 ratio. Suppression of T-cell viability was mainly mediated by IFNγ-inducible secreted mediators, which was prevented in the presence of direct cell contact, probably by intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1)-induced PI3 K-mediated transforming growth factor β1 expression in PDL cells. By contrast, ICAM-1 activation augmented IFNγ-induced IFNγ and interleukin-6 expression in PDL cells, which in turn modulated T-cell differentiation. The resulting interaction between these two cell types activated macrophage and suppressed osteoclast differentiation. In conclusion, the results have shown, for the first time to our knowledge, that primed and non-primed PDL cells with IFNγ differentially control T-cell responses via IFNγ-inducible mediators and ICAM-1-mediated direct cell contact, suggesting the role of PDL cells in shifting an inflammatory phase towards a regenerative phase.

Bousnaki M, Beketova A, Kontonasaki E. A Review of In Vivo and Clinical Studies Applying Scaffolds and Cell Sheet Technology for Periodontal Ligament Regeneration. Biomolecules 2022; 12:435. [PMID: 35327627 PMCID: PMC8945901 DOI: 10.3390/biom12030435] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2022] [Revised: 03/06/2022] [Accepted: 03/08/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Different approaches to develop engineered scaffolds for periodontal tissues regeneration have been proposed. In this review, innovations in stem cell technology and scaffolds engineering focused primarily on Periodontal Ligament (PDL) regeneration are discussed and analyzed based on results from pre-clinical in vivo studies and clinical trials. Most of those developments include the use of polymeric materials with different patterning and surface nanotopography and printing of complex and sophisticated multiphasic composite scaffolds with different compartments to accomodate for the different periodontal tissues' architecture. Despite the increased effort in producing these scaffolds and their undoubtable efficiency to guide and support tissue regeneration, appropriate source of cells is also needed to provide new tissue formation and various biological and mechanochemical cues from the Extraccellular Matrix (ECM) to provide biophysical stimuli for cell growth and differentiation. Cell sheet engineering is a novel promising technique that allows obtaining cells in a sheet format while preserving ECM components. The right combination of those factors has not been discovered yet and efforts are still needed to ameliorate regenerative outcomes towards the functional organisation of the developed tissues.

Ma L, Rao N, Jiang H, Dai Y, Yang S, Yang H, Hu J. Small extracellular vesicles from dental follicle stem cells provide biochemical cues for periodontal tissue regeneration. Stem Cell Res Ther 2022; 13:92. [PMID: 35241181 PMCID: PMC8895915 DOI: 10.1186/s13287-022-02767-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/20/2021] [Accepted: 02/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Treatments based on stem cell-derived small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) have been explored as an alternative to stem cell transplantation-based therapies in periodontal regeneration. Dental follicle stem cells (DFSCs) have shown great potential for regenerative medicine applications. However, it is unclear whether sEVs derived from DFSCs (DFSCs-sEVs) could be used in periodontal regeneration. This study investigates whether DFSCs-sEVs could regenerate damaged periodontal tissue and the potential underlying mechanism. Methods DFSCs-sEVs were isolated and identified, and periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) were cocultured with the isolated sEVs. The effect of DFSCs-sEVs on the biological behaviour of PDLSCs was examined using EdU assay, CCK-8 assay, cell cycle analysis, wound healing, alizarin red staining, qRT-PCR, and western blot analysis. RNA sequencing and functional enrichment analysis were used to detect the signal pathway involved in the effect of DFSCs-sEVs on PDLSCs. PDLSCs were pretreated with ERK1/2 or p38 MAPK inhibitors to investigate the possible involvement of the ERK1/2 and p38 MAPK pathways. Additionally, DFSCs-sEVs were combined with collagen sponges and transplanted into the periodontal defects in SD rats, and then, pathological changes in periodontal tissue were examined using haematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining and micro-CT. Results PDLSCs could internalize DFSCs-sEVs, thereby enhancing the proliferation assessed using EdU assay, CCK-8 assay and cell cycle analysis. DFSCs-sEVs significantly enhanced the migration of PDLSCs. DFSCs-sEVs promoted osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs, showing deep Alizarin red staining, upregulated osteogenic genes (RUNX2, BSP, COL1), and upregulated protein expression (RUNX2, BSP, COL1, ALP). We found that p38 MAPK signalling was activated via phosphorylation. Inhibition of this signalling pathway with a specific inhibitor (SB202190) partially weakened the enhanced proliferation. After DFSCs-sEVs transplantation, new periodontal ligament-like structures and bone formation were observed in the damaged periodontal area in rats. Labelled DFSCs-sEVs were observed in the newly formed periodontal ligament and soft tissue of the defect area. Conclusions Our study demonstrated that DFSCs-sEVs promoted periodontal tissue regeneration by promoting the proliferation, migration, and osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs. The effect of DFSCs-sEVs in promoting PDLSCs proliferation may be partially attributed to the activation of p38 MAPK signalling pathway. DFSCs-sEVs provide us with a novel strategy for periodontal regeneration in the future.

Epithelial Cell Rests of Malassez Provide a Favorable Microenvironment for Ameliorating the Impaired Osteogenic Potential of Human Periodontal Ligament Stem Cells. Front Physiol 2021; 12:735234. [PMID: 34707510 PMCID: PMC8542701 DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2021.735234] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2021] [Accepted: 09/14/2021] [Indexed: 12/26/2022] Open
Abstract
Human periodontal ligament stromal/stem cells (PDLSCs) are ideal candidates for periodontal regeneration and are of significant importance in clinical practice. However, PDLSCs derived from diseased microenvironments exert impaired behavior, which leads to the failure of periodontal regeneration. The epithelial cell rests of Malassez (ERM), which are involved in periodontal homeostasis, are residual cells from Hertwig's epithelial root sheath (HERS). However, the function of ERM remains largely unknown. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of ERM on the osteogenic potential of PDLSCs from an impaired microenvironment. PDLSCs from healthy donors (H-PDLSCs), periodontitis donors (P-PDLSCs) and human ERM were harvested. Osteogenic evaluation showed a lower osteogenic potential of P-PDLSCs compared to that of H-PDLSCs. Then, we co-cultured ERM with P-PDLSCs, and the data showed that ERM promoted the expression of osteogenic genes and proteins in P-PDLSCs. In addition, we collected the PDLSCs from aged donors (A-PDLSCs) and analyzed the osteogenesis capacity of the A-PDLSCs and A-PDLSCs + ERM groups, which displayed similar results to P-PDLSCs. Finally, we evaluated the Wnt pathway, which is associated with osteogenic differentiation of stromal/stem cells, in A-PDLSCs + ERM and P-PDLSCs + ERM groups, which indicated that suppression of the Wnt pathway may result in an increase in the osteogenic properties of A-PDLSCs + ERM and P-PDLSCs + ERM groups. Taken together, the above findings shed new light on the function of ERM and provide a novel therapeutic for optimizing PDLSCs-based periodontal regeneration.

Abstract
Dental follicle progenitor/stem cells (DFPCs) are a group of dental mesenchyme stem cells that lie in the dental follicle and play a critical role in tooth development and maintaining function. Originating from neural crest, DFPCs harbor a multipotential differentiation capacity. More importantly, they have superiorities, including the easy accessibility and abundant sources, active self-renewal ability and noncontroversial sources compared with other stem cells, making them an attractive candidate in the field of tissue engineering. Recent advances highlight the excellent properties of DFPCs in regeneration of orofacial tissues, including alveolar bone repair, periodontium regeneration and bio-root complex formation. Furthermore, they play a unique role in maintaining a favorable microenvironment for stem cells, immunomodulation and nervous related tissue regeneration. This review is intended to summarize the current knowledge of DFPCs, including their stem cell properties, physiological functions and clinical application potential. A deep understanding of DFPCs can thus inspire novel perspectives in regenerative medicine in the future.

Abstract
Dental tissue-derived stem cells (DSCs) provide an easy, accessible, relatively noninvasive promising source of adult stem cells (ASCs), which brought encouraging prospective for their clinical applications. DSCs provide a perfect opportunity to apply for a patient's own ASC, which poses a low risk of immune rejection. However, problems associated with the long-term culture of stem cells, including loss of proliferation and differentiation capacities, senescence, genetic instability, and the possibility of microbial contamination, make cell banking necessary. With the rapid development of advanced cryopreservation technology, various international DSC banks have been established for both research and clinical applications around the world. However, few studies have been published that provide step-by-step guidance on DSCs isolation and banking methods. The purpose of this review is to present protocols and technical details for all steps of cryopreserved DSCs, from donor selection, isolation, cryopreservation, to characterization and quality control. Here, the emphasis is on presenting practical principles in accordance with the available valid guidelines.

Long Noncoding RNA Expression Profiles of Periodontal Ligament Stem Cells from the Periodontitis Microenvironment in Response to Static Mechanical Strain. Stem Cells Int 2021; 2021:6655526.

Abstract
During the period of orthodontic tooth movement, periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) play an important role in transducing mechanical stimulation and tissue remodeling. However, our previous studies verified that the periodontitis microenvironment causes damage to the biological functions of PDLSCs and abnormal mechanical sensitivity. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) participate in the inflammatory pathogenesis and development of many diseases. Whether lncRNAs are abnormally expressed in PDLSCs obtained from periodontal tissues of periodontitis patients (PPDLSCs) and whether putative lncRNAs participate in the mechanotransductive process in PDLSCs remain poorly understood. First, we subjected PDLSCs obtained from healthy periodontal tissues (HPDLSCs) and PPDLSCs to static mechanical strain (SMS) with 12% elongation at 0.1 Hz frequency using an FX-4000T system and screened overall lncRNA profiles in both cell types by microarray. Among lncRNAs with a fold change (FC) > 20.0, 27 lncRNAs were upregulated in strained HPDLSCs, and 16 lncRNAs (9 upregulated and 7 downregulated) were detected in strained PPDLSCs. For mRNAs with FC > 20.0, we detected 25 upregulated mRNAs and one downregulated mRNA in strained HPDLSCs and 7 upregulated and 5 downregulated mRNAs in strained PPDLSCs. Further enrichment analysis showed that, unlike HPDLSCs with annotations principally involving transduction-associated signaling pathways, dysregulated mRNAs in PPDLSCs are mainly responsible for pathological conditions. Moreover, coexpressed lncRNA-mRNA networks confirmed the pathological state and exacerbated inflammatory conditions in strained PPDLSCs. Taken together, when compared with strained HPDLSCs, various lncRNAs and mRNAs were dysregulated in PPDLSCs under mechanical forces, implicating the response of lncRNAs in PPDLSCs to mechanical stress. Moreover, we provide potential lncRNA targets, which may contribute to future intervention strategies for orthodontic treatment in periodontitis patients.

Abstract
CDR1as is a well‐identified circular RNA with regulatory roles in a variety of physiological processes. However, the effects of CDR1as on stemness of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) and the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, we detect CDR1as in human PDLSCs, and subsequently demonstrate that CDR1as maintains PDLSC stemness. Knockdown of CDR1as decreases the expression levels of stemness‐related genes and impairs the cell's multi‐differentiation and cell migration abilities, while overexpression of CDR1as increases the expression levels of stemness‐related genes and enhances these abilities. Furthermore, our results indicate that the RNA‐binding protein hnRNPM directly interacts with CDR1as and regulates its expression in PDLSCs. In addition, we show that CDR1as promotes the expression of stemness‐related genes in PDLSCs by inhibiting miR‐7‐mediated suppression of KLF4 expression. Collectively, our results demonstrate that CDR1as participates in the molecular circuitry that regulates PDLSC stemness.

Abstract
Growing number of studies regarding the role of circRNAs in the development of various diseases have emerged in recent years, but the role of circRNAs in periodontitis pathogenesis remains obscure. Human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) play a critical role in periodontal remodeling, regeneration and repair processes, and their regenerative capacity could be prohibited in local periodontal inflammatory microenvironment. Herein, we sought to uncover the molecular mechanisms of periodontitis pathogenesis by investigating the role of circMAP3K11 (hsa_circ_002284) for regenerative capacity of hPDLSCs under an inflammatory condition. The hPDLSCs isolated from periodontitis patients were used as a cell model of inflammatory microenvironment to study the effect of the circMAP3K11/miR-511-3p/TLR4 axis on the proliferation, apoptosis and migration of hPDLSCs under inflammatory conditions. Compared to the periodontal tissues from normal subjects, those from periodontitis patients exhibited higher expression levels of circMAP3K11 and TLR4, and lower expression level of miR-511-3p. Both the expressions of circMAP3K11 and TLR4 were negatively correlated with the expressions of miR-511-3p in periodontitis. In vitro studies demonstrated that circMAP3K11 is capable of enhancing hPDLSCs proliferation and migration, and reducing the apoptosis of hPDLSCs. We also found that circMAP3K11 could up-regulate the expression of transcription factors that are closely related to periodontal regeneration (Runx2, OSX, ATF4, and BSP). RT-PCR and western blot showed that the inhibitory role of miR-511-3p on TLR4 expression could be reversed by circMAP3K11, which was in line with the results of bioinformatics tools and luciferase reporter assay. Meanwhile, both in vitro and in vivo studies indicated that circMAP3K11 could reverse the effects of miR-511-3p in periodontitis, which further confirmed that circMAP3K11 functioned as a ‘sponge’ of miR-511-3p to positively regulate the expression of TLR4. Taken together, our study preliminarily uncovered a circMAP3K11/miR-511-3p/TLR4 axis that regulates the function of hPDLSCs in periodontitis, providing novel insight and scientific base in the treatment of periodontal tissue regeneration based on stem cells.

Abstract
Angiogenesis is a broad spread term of high interest in regenerative medicine and tissue engineering including the dental field. In the last two decades, researchers worldwide struggled to find the best ways to accelerate healing, stimulate soft, and hard tissue remodeling. Stem cells, growth factors, pathways, signals, receptors, genetics are just a few words that describe this area in medicine. Dental implants, bone and soft tissue regeneration using autologous grafts, or xenografts, allografts, their integration and acceptance rely on their material properties. However, the host response, through its vascularization, plays a significant role. The present paper aims to analyze and organize the latest information about the available dental stem cells, the types of growth factors with pro-angiogenic effect and the possible therapeutic effect of enhanced angiogenesis in regenerative dentistry.

Abstract
Periodontitis is the sixth-most prevalent chronic inflammatory disease and gradually devastates tooth-supporting tissue. The complexity of periodontal tissue and the local inflammatory microenvironment poses great challenges to tissue repair. Recently, stem cells have been considered a promising strategy to treat tissue damage and inflammation because of their remarkable properties, including stemness, proliferation, migration, multilineage differentiation, and immunomodulation. Several varieties of stem cells can potentially be applied to periodontal regeneration, including dental mesenchymal stem cells (DMSCs), nonodontogenic stem cells, and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). In particular, these stem cells possess extensive immunoregulatory capacities. In periodontitis, these cells can exert anti-inflammatory effects and regenerate the periodontium. Stem cells derived from infected tissue possess typical stem cell characteristics with lower immunogenicity and immunosuppression. Several studies have demonstrated that these cells can also regenerate the periodontium. Furthermore, the interaction of stem cells with the surrounding infected microenvironment is critical to periodontal tissue repair. Though the immunomodulatory capabilities of stem cells are not entirely clarified, they show promise for therapeutic application in periodontitis. Here, we summarize the potential of stem cells for periodontium regeneration in periodontitis and focus on their characteristics and immunomodulatory properties as well as challenges and perspectives.

AFF4 regulates osteogenic differentiation of human dental follicle cells. Int J Oral Sci 2020; 12:20.

Abstract
As a member of the AFF (AF4/FMR2) family, AFF4 is a transcription elongation factor that is a component of the super elongation complex. AFF4 serves as a scaffolding protein that connects transcription factors and promotes gene transcription through elongation and chromatin remodelling. Here, we investigated the effect of AFF4 on human dental follicle cells (DFCs) in osteogenic differentiation. In this study, we found that small interfering RNA-mediated depletion of AFF4 resulted in decreased alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and impaired mineralization. In addition, the expression of osteogenic-related genes (DLX5, SP7, RUNX2 and BGLAP) was significantly downregulated. In contrast, lentivirus-mediated overexpression of AFF4 significantly enhanced the osteogenic potential of human DFCs. Mechanistically, we found that both the mRNA and protein levels of ALKBH1, a critical regulator of epigenetics, changed in accordance with AFF4 expression levels. Overexpression of ALKBH1 in AFF4-depleted DFCs partially rescued the impairment of osteogenic differentiation. Our data indicated that AFF4 promoted the osteogenic differentiation of DFCs by upregulating the transcription of ALKBH1.

J Cell Mol Med 2020; 24:2663-2676.

Abstract
Periodontitis is the leading cause of adult tooth loss, and those who smoke are at an increased risk of developing periodontitis. α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α7 nAChR) is proposed to mediate the potential synergistic effect of nicotine and inflammation in smoking‐related periodontitis. However, this has not been experimentally demonstrated. We isolated and cultured human periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) from healthy and inflamed tissues. PDLSCs were treated with either inflammatory factors or nicotine. We measured expression of genes that are associated with osteogenic differentiation and osteoclast formation using RT‐qPCR and Western blot analyses. Besides, immunohistochemical staining, micro‐CT analysis and tartaric acid phosphatase staining were used to measure α7 nAChR expression and function. Inflammation up‐regulated α7 nAChR expression in both periodontal ligament tissues and PDLSCs. The up‐regulated α7 nAChR contributed to the synergistic effect of nicotine and inflammation, leading to a decreased capability of osteogenic differentiation and increased capability of osteoclast formation‐induction of PDLSCs. Moreover, the inflammation‐induced up‐regulation of α7 nAChR was partially dependent on the level of phosphorylated GSK‐3β. This study provides experimental evidence for the pathological development of smoking‐related periodontitis and sheds new light on developing inflammation and α7 nAChR‐targeted therapeutics to treat and prevent the disease.

Abstract
Nuclear factor I-C (NFIC) plays critical roles in the regulation of tooth development by influencing the biological behaviors of stem cells in the dental germ. This study aimed to investigate the effect of NFIC on the vitality and osteogenic/cementogenic differentiation of rat dental follicle cells (DFCs). DFCs were isolated from dental follicles in the first molars of neonatal rats. DFCs expressed mesenchymal stromal cell markers CD29, CD44 and CD90 and had capabilities for self-renewal and multipotent differentiation. Overexpression of NFIC promoted the proliferation of DFCs without markedly influencing the apoptosis of DFCs. Moreover, NFIC increased alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity in DFCs and upregulated the mRNA levels of osteogenic-related markers, namely, collagen type I (Col I), Runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2) and ALP, as well as β-catenin. In contrast, silencing NFIC by siRNA increased the apoptosis of DFCs and downregulated the expression of osteogenic-related markers. In conclusion, these results suggested that upregulation of NFIC may promote the proliferation and osteogenic/cementogenic differentiation of DFCs.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory and tissue-destructive disease. Since the polymicrobiome in the oral cavity makes it difficult to treat, novel therapeutic strategies are required. Hydrogels based on self-assembling peptides (SAP) can be suitable candidates for periodontal therapy due to their injectability, biocompatibility, cargo-loading capacity, and tunable physicochemical and mechanical properties. In this study, two SAP hydrogels (P11-4 and P11-28/29) are examined for their intrinsic antimicrobial activity, regenerative potential, and antibiotic delivery capacity. A significant antibacterial effect of P11-28/29 hydrogels on the periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis and a less pronounced effect for P11-4 hydrogels is demonstrated. The metabolic activity rates of human dental follicle stem cells (DFSCs), which reflect cell viability and may thus indicate the regenerative capacity, are similar on tissue culture polystyrene (TCPS) and on P11-4 hydrogels after 14 days of culture. Noticeably, both SAP hydrogels strengthen the osteogenic differentiation of DFSCs compared with TCPS. The incorporation of tetracycline, ciprofloxacin, and doxycycline does not affect fibril formation of either SAP hydrogel and results in favorable release kinetics up to 120 h. In summary, this study reveals that P11-SAP hydrogels combine many favorable properties required to make them applicable as prospective novel treatment strategy for periodontal therapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aims to establish an effective and stable periodontal ligament cell line stably expressing human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) gene by using the adenovirus method. METHODS Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to amplify the full length of hTERT gene to construct recombinant adenovirus plasmid pAd-pshuttle-cmv-hTERT. Packaged adenovirus particles were used for infection of human periodontal ligament cells. The expression levels of hTERT and osteogenic genes, such as alkaline phosphatase, Runt-related transcription factor 2, bone sialoprotein, osteocalcin, osteopontin, and collagen Ⅰ mRNA, were detected by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). The ability of osteogenic differentiation was observed by alizarin red staining, and the cell proliferation was determined by CCK-8. RESULTS Adenovirus particles containing the hTERT gene were successfully constructed and infected with periodontal ligament cells. The infected cells were similar to normal periodontal ligament cells. The qRT-PCR results showed that hTERT and osteogenesis-associated genes were highly expressed in the periodontal ligament cell lines constructed by adenoviruses. Alizarin red staining showed that the periodontal ligament cell line had strong osteogenic differentiation capability. CCK-8 showed that the periodontal ligament cell line had strong proliferation capability. CONCLUSIONS The human periodontal ligament cell line with high efficiency and stable expression of hTERT was established by the adenovirus method, thereby providing an ideal cell line for studying the mechanism of periodontal regeneration.

Abstract
The aims of this study were to generate periodontal ligament (PDL) cells that have adenovirus- or lentivirus-mediated overexpression of human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) and to compare the osteogenic and proliferative abilities of the two cell lines to establish an efficient and stable cell model that will be more suitable for studies of PDL regeneration. After construction of the recombinant adenovirus plasmid pAd-pshuttle-cmv-hTERT, human PDL cells were infected by packaged adenovirus and lentivirus particles to establish two PDL cell lines. The expression levels of hTERT and mRNA for alkaline phosphatase, osteopontin, osteocalcin, bone sialoprotein, core-binding factor (runt-related transcription factor 2), and type I collagen were assessed for each cell line. After culture in osteoinductive culture medium for 14 days, the PDL cells were stained with alizarin red to observe formation of mineralized nodules, and proliferation activity was measured with a CCK-8 kit. A quantitative polymerase chain reaction assay indicated that the two transduced cell lines expressed hTERT levels that were significantly higher than that seen for normal PDL cells. Expression of all osteogenic genes tested, with the exception of osteopontin, was higher for both the adenovirus- and lentivirus-transduced cells relative to normal PDL cells. The expression of bone sialoprotein, osteocalcin, and runt-related transcription factor 2 in adenovirus-transduced cells was significantly higher than that for lentivirus-transduced cells. Alizarin red staining showed that the adenovirus-transduced cell line produced more mineralized nodules than the lentivirus-transduced cell line, whereas a CCK-8 test showed that the adenovirus-transduced cell line had higher proliferation activity than lentivirus-transduced cells. In conclusion, a PDL cell line established by adenovirus transduction had superior osteogenic differentiation and proliferative activity compared to the cell line produced by lentivirus transduction. The results indicate that PDL cells having adenovirus-mediated expression of hTERT would be a more suitable model for studies of PDL regeneration.

Abstract
Bone formation is important for the reconstruction of bone-related structures in areas that have been damaged by inflammation. Inflammatory conditions such as those that occur in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, cystic fibrosis, and periodontitis have been shown to inhibit osteoblastic differentiation. This study focussed on dental follicle stem cells (DFSCs), which are found in developing tooth germ and participate in the reconstruction of alveolar bone and periodontal tissue in periodontal disease. After bacterial infection of inflamed dental tissue, the destruction of bone was observed. Currently, little is known about the relationship between the inflammatory environment and bone formation. Osteogenic differentiation of inflamed DFSCs resulted in decreased alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and alizarin red S staining compared to normal DFSCs. Additionally, in vivo transplantation of inflamed and normal DFSCs demonstrated severe impairment of osteogenesis by inflamed DFSCs. Protein profile analysis via liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry was performed to analyse the differences in protein expression in inflamed and normal tissue. Comparison of inflamed and normal DFSCs showed significant changes in the level of expression of transforming growth factor (TGF)-β2. Porphyromonas gingivalis (P.g.)-derived lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was used to create in vitro inflammatory conditions similar to periodontitis. The osteogenic differentiation of LPS-treated DFSCs was suppressed, and the cells displayed low levels of TGF-β1 and high levels of TGF-β2. DFSCs treated with TGF-β2 inhibitors showed significant increases in alizarin red S staining and ALP activity. TGF-β1 expression was also increased after inhibition of TGF-β2. By examining inflamed DFSCs and LPS-triggered DFSCs, these studies showed both clinically and experimentally that the increase in TGF-β2 levels that occurs under inflammatory conditions inhibits bone formation. During inflammation, increased transforming growth factor (TGF)-β2 inhibits bone formation in dental follicle stem cells (DFSCs). Hitherto, the relationship between inflammation and bone formation has been poorly understood. But a team headed by Byoung-Moo Seo of Seoul National University, Republic of Korea examined the different functions of two types of TGF-β (a protein that is a key regulator of bone formation): TGF-β1 and TGF-β2. By means of cell cultures and in vivo experiments in mice, the team conducted its investigation on DFSCs: stem cells (non-specialised cells) in the dental follicle, which surrounds a tooth before it erupts. The authors found that inflammation led to an increase in TGF-β2, and that increase inhibited bone formation. The results of the study have implications for the future therapeutic application of DFSCs in bone-loss diseases.

Abstract
Periodontal disease is a widespread disease, which without proper treatment, may lead to tooth loss in adults. Because stem cells from the inflammatory microenvironment created by periodontal disease exhibit impaired regeneration potential even under favorable conditions, it is difficult to obtain satisfactory therapeutic outcomes using traditional treatments, which only focus on the control of inflammation. Therefore, a new stem cell-based therapy known as cell aggregates/cell sheets technology has emerged. This approach provides sufficient numbers of stem cells with high viability for treating the defective site and offers new hope in the field of periodontal regeneration. However, it is not sufficient for regenerating periodontal tissues by delivering cell aggregates/cell sheets to the impaired microenvironment in order to suppress the function of resident cells. In the present review, we summarize some promising bioactive molecules that act as cellular signals, which recreate a favorable microenvironment for tissue regeneration, recruit endogenous cells into the defective site and enhance the viability of exogenous cells.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a chronic disease that begins with a period of inflammation of the supporting tissues of the teeth table and then progresses, destroying the tissues until loss of the teeth occurs. The restoration of the damaged dental support apparatus is an extremely complex process due to the regeneration of the cementum, the periodontal ligament, and the alveolar bone. Conventional treatment relies on synthetic materials that fill defects and replace lost dental tissue, but these approaches are not substitutes for a real regeneration of tissue. To address this, there are several approaches to tissue engineering for regenerative dentistry, among them, the use of stem cells. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) can be obtained from various sources of adult tissues, such as bone marrow, adipose tissue, skin, and tissues of the orofacial area. MSC of dental origin, such as those found in the bone marrow, have immunosuppressive and immunotolerant properties, multipotency, high proliferation rates, and the capacity for tissue repair. However, they are poorly used as sources of tissue for therapeutic purposes. Their accessibility makes them an attractive source of mesenchymal stem cells, so this review describes the field of dental stem cell research and proposes a potential mechanism involved in periodontal tissue regeneration induced by dental MSC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE The majority of experiments show that tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) inhibits osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells and pre-osteoblasts by activated nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-κB) signaling. However, the underlying mechanisms by which NF-κB signaling inhibits osteogenic differentiation are not fully understood. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether EphB4 signaling inhibition mediates the effects of TNF-α-activated NF-κB signaling on osteogenic differentiation of pre-osteoblasts. MATERIAL AND METHODS Murine MC3T3-E1 pre-osteoblasts were treated with 10 ng/mL of TNF-α. NF-κB inhibitor, pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate, was used to achieve NF-κB signaling inhibition. EphB4 signaling was activated using ephrinB2-fc. The mRNA expressions of runt related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), bone sialoprotein (BSP) and EphB4 were determined using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. The protein levels of Runx2, BSP, Col Ia1, osteopontin, EphB4, p-NF-κB p65 and NF-κB p65 were evaluated using western blot assays. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity in MC3T3-E1 cells was evaluated by ALP activity kit, and mineral nodule formation was evaluated by Alizarin Red S staining. RESULTS TNF-α inhibited EphB4 expression, while it suppressed Runx2, BSP expression from gene and protein levels as well as ALP activity and mineral nodule formation in MC3T3-E1 cells. Activation of EphB4 signaling by ephrinB2-fc promoted osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells, whereas TNF-α impaired the osteogenic differentiation enhanced by ephrinB2-fc. Pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate blocked the activation of NF-κB signaling induced by TNF-α, while it prevented the downregulation of Runx2, BSP and EphB4, induced by TNF-α. CONCLUSION TNF-α inhibits osteogenic differentiation of pre-osteoblasts by downregulation of EphB4 signaling via activated NF-κB signaling pathway.

Abstract
This systematic review aims to evaluate mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) periodontal regenerative potential in animal models. MEDLINE, EMBASE and LILACS databases were searched for quantitative pre-clinical controlled animal model studies that evaluated the effect of local administration of MSC on periodontal regeneration. The systematic review was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses statement guidelines. Twenty-two studies met the inclusion criteria. Periodontal defects were surgically created in all studies. In seven studies, periodontal inflammation was experimentally induced following surgical defect creation. Differences in defect morphology were identified among the studies. Autogenous, alogenous and xenogenous MSC were used to promote periodontal regeneration. These included bone marrow-derived MSC, periodontal ligament (PDL)-derived MSC, dental pulp-derived MSC, gingival margin-derived MSC, foreskin-derived induced pluripotent stem cells, adipose tissue-derived MSC, cementum-derived MSC, periapical follicular MSC and alveolar periosteal cells. Meta-analysis was not possible due to heterogeneities in study designs. In most of the studies, local MSC implantation was not associated with adverse effects. The use of bone marrow-derived MSC for periodontal regeneration yielded conflicting results. In contrast, PDL-MSC consistently promoted increased PDL and cementum regeneration. Finally, the adjunct use of MSC improved the regenerative outcomes of periodontal defects treated with membranes or bone substitutes. Despite the quality level of the existing evidence, the current data indicate that the use of MSC may provide beneficial effects on periodontal regeneration. The various degrees of success of MSC in periodontal regeneration are likely to be related to the use of heterogeneous cells. Thus, future studies need to identify phenotypic profiles of highly regenerative MSC populations.

Periodontal Ligament Stem Cells in the Periodontitis Microenvironment Are Sensitive to Static Mechanical Strain. Stem Cells Int 2017; 2017:1380851.

Abstract
During orthodontic treatment, periodontium remodeling of periodontitis patients under mechanical force was abnormal. We have previously confirmed the function impairment of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) in the periodontitis microenvironment which might be involved in this pathological process. However, the response of PDLSCs in periodontitis microenvironment to mechanical force remains unclear. Therefore, in the present study, we introduced a Flexcell tension apparatus and investigated the response of PDLSCs obtained from periodontal tissues of periodontitis patients (PPDLSCs) and of those obtained from healthy periodontal tissues (HPDLSCs) to different magnitudes of static mechanical strain (SMS). PPDLSCs showed increased proliferation, decreased osteogenic activity, activated osteoclastogenesis, and greater secretion of inflammatory cytokines. Different magnitudes of SMS exerted distinct effects on HPDLSCs and PPDLSCs. An SMS of 12% induced optimal effects in HPDLSCs, including the highest proliferation, the best osteogenic ability, the lowest osteoclastogenesis, and the lowest secretion of inflammatory cytokines, while the optimal SMS for PPDLSCs was 8%. Excessive SMS damaged PPDLSCs function, including decreased proliferation, an imbalance between osteogenesis and osteoclastogenesis, and an activated inflammatory response. Our data suggest that PPDLSCs are more sensitive and less tolerant to SMS, and this may explain why mechanical force results in undesirable effects in periodontitis patients.

Abstract
AIM: The aim of this study was to analyze the cytotoxicity of ciprofloxacin (CIP) loaded on chitosan bioactive glass scaffold on human periodontal ligament stem cells (PLSCs) in vitro. MATERIALS AND METHODS: PLSCs obtained from human third molars, cultures treated with medium containing 15 x 15 mm chitosan/bioactive glass scaffolds without/with different concentration 0, 5, 10, and 20 % of CIP. A total of 15 x 10^3 cells were plated in 6 well plates. The attached cells of each group were harvested from the plates after 1, 4 and 8 days of culture to detect the viability of cells. The cell number was determined using a hemocytometer and the trypan blue dye-exclusion assay. Data was analyzed using normality using Shapiro-Wilk test. Comparisons between groups were made using One-way ANOVA complemented by Tukey’s test. RESULTS: When comparing the proliferation rate of cells in the four groups, no statistically significant difference was found (P = 0.633). With regards to cell viability, no statistical difference was found between the 0, 5, and 10 % CIP concentrations, while the 20 % CIP concentration demonstrated the least viability with a high statistically significant difference (P = 0.003). CONCLUSION: Twenty percentages CIP demonstrated the least proliferation rate and viability.

A comparative clinico-radiographic study of guided tissue regeneration with bioresorbable membrane and a composite synthetic bone graft for the treatment of periodontal osseous defects. J Indian Soc Periodontol 2015; 19:416-23. [PMID: 26392691 PMCID: PMC4555800 DOI: 10.4103/0972-124x.154544] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2014] [Accepted: 02/23/2015] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Aim: The aim was to evaluate the bonefill in periodontal osseous defects with the help of guided tissue regeneration, bioresorbable membrane (PerioCol) + bone graft (Grabio Glascera) in combination and with bonegraft (Grabio Glascera) alone. Materials and Methods: The study involved total 30 sites in systemically healthy 19 patients. The parameters for evaluation includes plaque index sulcus bleeding index with one or more periodontal osseous defects having (i) probing depth (PD) of ≥ 5 mm (ii) clinical attachment loss (CAL) of ≥ 5 mm and (iii) ≥3 mm of radiographic periodontal osseous defect (iv) bonefill (v) crestal bone loss (vi) defect resolution. The study involved the three wall and two wall defects which should be either located interproximally or involving the furcation area. The statistical analysis was done using Statistical Package for Social Sciences, the Wilcoxon signed rank statistic W + for Mann–Whitney U-test. Results: The net gain in PD and CAL after 6 months for Group I ([PerioCol] + [Grabio Glascera]) and Group II (Grabio Glascera) was 3.94 ± 1.81 mm, 3.57 ± 2.21 mm and 3.94 ± 1.81, 3.57 ± 2.21 mm, respectively. The results of the study for Group I and Group II with regards to mean net bonefill, was 3.25 ± 2.32 (58%) mm and 5.14 ± 3.84 (40.26 ± 19.14%) mm, crestal bone loss − 0.25 ± 0.68 mm and − 0.79 ± 1.19 mm. Defect resolution 3.50 ± 2.34 mm and 5.93 ± 4.01 mm, respectively. Conclusion: On comparing both the groups together after 6 months of therapy, the results were equally effective for combination of graft and membrane versus bone graft alone since no statistical significant difference was seen between above parameters for both the groups. Thus, both the treatment modalities are comparable and equally effective.
