Lipocalin-2 as a fundamental protein in type 2 diabetes and periodontitis in mice. J Periodontol 2024. [PMID: 39189666 DOI: 10.1002/jper.24-0215] [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: 04/04/2024] [Revised: 08/07/2024] [Accepted: 08/07/2024] [Indexed: 08/28/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Lipocalin-2 (LCN-2) is an osteokine that suppresses appetite, stimulates insulin secretion, regulates bone remodeling, and is induced by proinflammatory cytokines. The aim of this work was to investigate the participation of LCN-2 in periodontitis associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D) by evaluating alveolar bone loss, glycemic control, inflammation, and femur fragility. METHODS A murine model of periodontitis with T2D and elevated LCN-2 concentration was used. Functional LCN-2 inhibition was achieved using an anti-LCN-2 polyclonal antibody, and isotype immunoglobulin G was used as a control. The alveolar bone and femur were evaluated by micro-CT. Glucose metabolism was determined. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α) and receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) levels in alveolar bone lysates were quantified using ELISA, and serum cytokines were quantified using flow cytometry. A three-point bending test was performed in the femur, and RANKL levels were measured in femur lysates using ELISA. RESULTS Functional inhibition of LCN-2 in T2D-periodontitis mice decreased alveolar bone loss in buccal and palatal surfaces and preserved the microarchitecture of the remaining bone, decreased TNF-α and RANKL in alveolar bone, reduced hyperglycemia, glucose intolerance, and insulin resistance, and increased insulin production through improving the functionality of pancreatic β cells. Furthermore, this inhibition increased serum free-glycerol levels, decreased serum interleukin (IL)-6, increased serum IL-4, and reduced femur fragility and RANKL expression in the femur. CONCLUSIONS LCN-2 participates in periodontitis associated with T2D. Inhibiting its function in mice with T2D and periodontitis improves pancreatic β-cell function, and glucose metabolism and decreases inflammatory cytokines and bone-RANKL levels, which results in the preservation of femoral and alveolar bone microarchitecture. PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY In this study, we explored the role of a bone protein known as lipocalin-2 (LCN-2) in the connection between periodontitis and type 2 diabetes (T2D). Periodontitis is a destructive gum and alveolar bone disease. LCN-2 levels are increased in both T2D and periodontitis. Using a mouse model of T2D with periodontitis, we examined how blocking LCN-2 function affected various aspects of these two diseases. We found that this inhibition led to significant improvements. First, it reduced alveolar bone loss and preserved bone structure by decreasing local inflammation and bone resorption. Second, it improved glucose and lipid metabolism, leading to better blood-sugar control and decreased insulin resistance. Blocking the functions of LCN-2 also decreased systemic inflammation throughout the body and strengthened bone integrity. Overall, our results suggest that LCN-2 plays a crucial role in the periodontitis associated with T2D. By inhibiting LCN-2 function, we were able to improve pancreatic function, improve glucose metabolism, reduce inflammation, and enhance bone health. Targeting LCN-2 could be a promising strategy for the harmful effects of T2D and periodontitis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to investigate interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-18, nod-like receptor pyrin domain-containing protein 3 (NLRP3), apoptosis-related speck-like protein containing a caspase activation and recruitment domain (ASC), and caspase-1 levels in saliva and serum in different periodontal diseases and to evaluate the changes after non-surgical periodontal treatment (NSPT). DESIGN A total of 45 participants, 15 healthy, 15 gingivitis, and 15 stage III grade C (SIIIGC) periodontitis patients, were included in the study. Periodontal parameters were assessed, and salivary and serum samples were collected at baseline in all groups and one and three months after NSPT in gingivitis and periodontitis groups. An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to analyse IL-1β, IL-18, NLRP3, ASC, and caspase-1 levels. RESULTS After NSPT, improvement was observed in all clinical parameters, along with periodontal inflamed surface area (PISA) in gingivitis and periodontitis groups. PISA scores were positively correlated with IL-1β, NLRP3, and caspase-1 at baseline (p < 0.05). Salivary and serum IL-1β, NLRP3 levels were higher in periodontitis compared to healthy controls at baseline and reduced after treatment (p < 0.05). Receiver operating characteristic analysis revealed that salivary IL-1β, NLRP3, and caspase-1 had the ability to discriminate SIIIGC periodontitis patients from healthy subjects (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION In conclusion, salivary IL-1β, NLRP3, and caspase-1 are at aberrantly high levels in SIIIGC periodontitis and are remarkably decreased following NSPT; these inflammasome biomarkers may show potential utility in diagnosing and monitoring periodontitis.

Abstract
The goal of the current study was to assess levels of salivary interleukin (IL)-38, IL-1β, and IL-10 in various periodontal clinical conditions. In total, 60 (20 healthy, 20 gingivitis, and 20 stage II-III, grade A-B periodontitis) subjects were included in the study. Demographic and clinical periodontal parameters were recorded. Samples were examined for IL-38, IL-1β, and IL-10 levels by means of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results demonstrated that the periodontitis group had significantly lower salivary IL-38 levels (P < 0.05) than the healthy group. Salivary IL-10 levels did not differ significantly between the groups (P > 0.05). The salivary IL-1β levels of gingivitis (P < 0.001) and periodontitis groups (P < 0.01) were significantly higher than those of the healthy group. The present study indicated that IL-38 level is decreased in periodontal disease. The results suggested a possible role of IL-38 in the periodontal inflammation process. Clarifying the mechanisms of IL-38 in the inflammatory process may contribute to the development of novel treatment strategies in periodontal diseases.

J Periodontol 2023; 94:1414-1424. [PMID: 37433155 DOI: 10.1002/jper.23-0063] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/28/2023] [Revised: 06/05/2023] [Accepted: 06/05/2023] [Indexed: 07/13/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND N-terminal portion of the B-type natriuretic propeptide (NT-proBNP) has potentially been shown to play an important role in the development of periodontitis and cardiovascular disease (CVD). This study evaluated the efficacy of periodontal treatment on NT-proBNP and related CVD biomarkers and explored whether subjects harboring high NT-proBNP at baseline showed increased clinical benefits with the non-surgical periodontal treatment performed with full-mouth scaling and root planing (FM-SRP) at 6-month follow-up. METHODS Forty-eight patients with stage III periodontitis were randomized to receive minimal standard oral care (SOC) (n = 24) or FM-SRP (n = 24) protocol. Clinical periodontal parameters (probing depth, clinical attachment loss, bleeding on probing), serum NT-proBNP, α1-antitrypsin, C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), endothelial cell-specific molecule-1 (ECM-1), and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) concentrations were assessed at baseline and at 1-, 3-, and 6- month follow-up. RESULTS At 6 months, FM-SRP was more effective than SOC in reducing periodontal parameters and mean proportions of NT-proBNP (p = 0.004), hs-CRP (p = 0.003), α1-antitrypsin (p = 0.012), ECM-1 (p = 0.014), and NGAL (p = 0.045). At 6-month follow-up, the reduced NT-proBNP, α1-antitrypsin, hs-CRP, ECM-1, and NGAL levels were significantly correlated with the extent of periodontitis (p < 0.05). Furthermore, the analysis of variance analysis evidenced that, at 6-month follow-up, FM-SRP significantly impacted the reduction of NT-proBNP, hs-CRP, ECM-1, and NGAL. Moreover, high levels of NT-proBNP, hs-CRP, ECM-1, and NGAL at baseline significantly influenced the efficacy of periodontal treatment positively. CONCLUSION In this study, FM-SRP was more effective than SOC in reducing clinical variables and NT-proBNP levels, although subjects who harbored high NT-proBNP concentrations at baseline showed greater clinical benefits of periodontal treatment at 6-month follow-up.

[PMID: 37151999 PMCID: PMC10154447 DOI: 10.1007/s13205-023-03572-5] [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: 09/12/2022] [Accepted: 04/19/2023] [Indexed: 05/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Orthodontically induced inflammatory root resorption (OIIRR) is an undesirable complication of orthodontic treatment (OT) with an ambiguous aetiologic mechanism. This study aimed to identify OIIRR-associated biomarkers in the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) using proteomic analysis. In this randomized clinical trial, the upper first premolars (UFP) were exposed either to light or heavy force. The GCF was collected at 1 h, 1 day, 7 days, 14 days, 21 days, and 28 days following force application. After extraction of UFP, roots were imaged and resorption premolar, was used to deliver either light forcecraters were measured. Proteomic analysis of GCF was performed using 2D gel electrophoresis with MALDI-TOF/TOF MS/MS. Results were further analyzed by bioinformatics analyses showing the biological functions and predicted pathways. The predicted canonical pathways showed that the expression of immunoglobulin kappa (IGKC), neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), neurolysin mitochondrial (NEUL), keratin, type II cytoskeletal 1 (K2C1), S100-A9, and the extracellular calcium-sensing receptor (CASR) were significantly associated with a range of biological and inflammatory processes. In conclusion, up-regulation of S100A9, CASR, and K2C1 suggested a response to force-related inflammation, chemotactic activities, osteoclastogenesis, and epithelial cell breakdown. Meanwhile, the up-regulation of IGKC, NGAL, and K2C1 indicated a response to the inflammatory process, innate immunity activation, and epithelial cell breakdown.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Periodontal disease (PerioD) is a chronic, complex inflammatory condition resulting from the interaction between subgingival dysbiotic bacteria and the host immune response leading to local inflammation. Since periodontal inflammation is characterized by multiple cytokines effects we investigated whether Periodontal Inflamed Surface Area (PISA), a continuous measure of clinical periodontal inflammation is a predictor of composite indexes of salivary cytokines. METHODS AND FINDINGS In a cross-sectional study of 67 healthy, well-educated individuals, we evaluated PISA and several cytokines expressed in whole stimulated saliva. Two salivary cytokine indexes were constructed using weighted and unweighted approaches based on a Principal Component Analysis [named Cytokine Component Index (CCI)] or averaging the (standardized) level of all cytokines [named Composite Inflammatory Index (CII)]. In regression analysis we found that PISA scores were significantly associated with both salivary cytokine constructs, (CCI: part R = 0.51, p<0.001; CII: part R = 0.40, p = 0.001) independent of age, gender and BMI showing that single scores summarizing salivary cytokines correlated with severity of clinical periodontal inflammation. CONCLUSIONS Clinical periodontal inflammation may be reflected by a single score encompassing several salivary cytokines. These results are consistent with the complexity of interactions characterizing periodontal disease. In addition, Type I error is likely to be avoided.

Abstract
Objectives Host responses to oral inflammation include a continuous and substantive response with the influx of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN). PMN, referred to as first responders, migrate rapidly from the circulatory system through the connective tissue to mitigate stimuli and localize in the saliva. This study examined the relationship between the well-established clinical indices of gingivitis and dental plaque and the PMN level. Materials and Methods This study enrolled adults aged 18-75 years, who provided voluntary informed consent. Oral rinse samples were collected from 159 participants to estimate the PMN levels prior to the full-mouth assessment for gingivitis and dental plaque using the respective clinical indices. Results The gingival index and dental plaque index scores were in the range of 0.098-2.71 and 0.73-4.78, respectively. Regardless of the age and gender, higher number of PMN was observed with higher gingival index and dental plaque index scores. Our analyses indicated a significant correlation between the oral PMN level and gingival index with a correlation coefficient of 0.66 (p < 0.0001). Similarly, the correlation between the PMN level and dental plaque index was statistically significant with a correlation coefficient of 0.57 (p < 0.0001). Regression analysis identified a significant relationship between the PMN level and clinical indices (p < 0.0005). Conclusions Increase in the PMN levels with increasing clinical scores (gingival and dental plaque indices) reflect the oral inflammatory burden, irrespective of age or gender. These observations warrant future studies on participants stratified by health status and research directed toward examining the effects of interventions.

Abstract
Background. The aim of this study was the clinical and laboratory evaluation of using polycaprolactone (PCL) nanofibers loaded with oxytetracycline hydrochloride (OTC) and zinc oxide (ZnO) as an adjunct to mechanical therapy in managing stage II grade A periodontitis patients concerning GCF lipocalin2- levels. Methods. Fifty stage II grade A periodontitis patients (27 women and 23 men, with an age range of 30‒60) were enrolled in the study. The patients were randomly assigned to five equal groups and treated with scaling and root planing (SRP), followed by local application of PCL nanofibers: group I: SRP + PCL loaded with OTC and ZnO, group II: SRP + PCL loaded with OTC, group III: SRP + PCL loaded with ZnO, group IV: SRP + unloaded PCL, and group V: SRP alone. Additionally, 10 healthy subjects with healthy periodontium (group VI) (age- and gender-matched) served as the negative control. Nanofibers were applied in the selected pockets of periodontitis patients in groups I to IV once weekly for two months. All the participants were examined clinically by assessing periodontal indices (gingival index, plaque index, pocket depth, and clinical attachment level), and biochemically by assessing GCF lipocalin-2 levels. Results. Compared to controls, periodontitis groups (I, II, III, IV, and V) showed significant elevation of both clinical parameters and GCF lipocalin2- levels at baseline. In addition, these parameters improved significantly after treatment, which was more pronounced in groups I, II-, and III) compared to groups IV and V. However, it did not reach normal values. Conclusion. In association with SRP, PCL nanofibers loaded with OTC and ZnO had beneficial therapeutic effects at both clinical and laboratory levels.

Abstract
AIM This study aimed to quantitatively and qualitatively determine the proteomic profile of apical periodontitis (AP) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients in comparison with systemically noncompromised patients and to correlate the protein expression of both groups with their biological functions. METHODOLOGY The sample consisted of 18 patients with asymptomatic AP divided into two groups according to the presence of T2DM: diabetic group-patients with T2DM (n = 9) and control group-systemically healthy patients (n = 9). After sample collection, the root canal samples were prepared for proteomic analysis using reverse-phase liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Label-free quantitative proteomic analysis was performed by Protein Lynx Global Service software. Differences in protein expression between groups were calculated using t-test (p < .05). Biological functions were analysed using the Homo sapiens UniProt database. RESULTS A total of 727 human proteins were identified in all samples. Among them, 124 proteins common to both groups were quantified, out of which 65 proteins from the diabetic group showed significant differences compared with the control: 43 upregulated (p < .05) and 22 downregulated (p < .05) proteins. No significant differences in protein expression were seen for the remaining 59 proteins (p > .05). Most proteins with differences in expression were related to immune/inflammatory response. Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin, Plastin-2, Lactotransferrin and 13 isoforms of immunoglobulins were upregulated. In contrast, Protein S100-A8, Protein S100-A9, Histone H2B, Neutrophil defensin 1, Neutrophil defensin 3 and Prolactin-inducible protein were downregulated. CONCLUSIONS Quantitative differences were demonstrated in the expression of proteins common to diabetic and control groups, mainly related to immune response, oxidative stress, apoptosis and proteolysis. These findings revealed biological pathways that provide the basis to support clinical findings on the relationship between AP and T2DM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Identification of biomarkers to assess individual risk and monitor periodontal health status is important. Research on lipocalin-2 (LCN2) and semaphorin3A (Sema3A) is lacking. This study aimed to evaluate gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) LCN2, Sema3A, and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) levels in periodontally healthy (H), gingivitis (G), and periodontitis (P) patients, and their changes following non-surgical periodontal therapy. METHODS Sixty systemically healthy and non-smoker participants, diagnosed as periodontally healthy, gingivitis, and stage III grade C periodontitis, were recruited (n = 20/group). Clinical periodontal parameters were recorded and GCF samples were obtained at baseline from all groups; for group P, these were repeated one and three months following non-surgical periodontal treatment. GCF LCN2, Sema3A, and TNF-α levels were evaluated with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS GCF LCN2, Sema3A, and TNF-α total amounts were significantly higher in disease groups than group H (p < .001). Between P and G groups, only TNF-α levels were significantly different (p < .001). Non-surgical periodontal therapy resulted in significant improvement of all clinical parameters and significant decreases of GCF LCN2 and TNF-α levels, at both time points, compared with baseline (p < .001). Sema3A levels remained unchanged following treatment (p > .05). LCN2 and TNF-α levels were significantly positively correlated with clinical parameters. LCN2 (AUC [area under the curve] = 0.94) and TNF-α (AUC = 0.98) levels were similarly accurate in differentiating between periodontal disease (whether G or P) and healthy controls. CONCLUSIONS LCN2 and TNF-α levels in GCF are correlated with clinical parameters and could prove useful as non-invasive screening tools for periodontitis.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a common inflammatory disease of infectious origins that often evolves into a chronic condition. Aside from its importance as a stomatologic ailment, chronic periodontitis has gained relevance since it has been shown that it can develop into a systemic condition characterized by unresolved hyper-inflammation, disruption of the innate and adaptive immune system, dysbiosis of the oral, gut and other location's microbiota and other system-wide alterations that may cause, coexist or aggravate other health issues associated to elevated morbi-mortality. The relationships between the infectious, immune, inflammatory, and systemic features of periodontitis and its many related diseases are far from being fully understood and are indeed still debated. However, to date, a large body of evidence on the different biological, clinical, and policy-enabling sources of information, is available. The aim of the present work is to summarize many of these sources of information and contextualize them under a systemic inflammation framework that may set the basis to an integral vision, useful for basic, clinical, and therapeutic goals.

In Vitro Compression Model for Orthodontic Tooth Movement Modulates Human Periodontal Ligament Fibroblast Proliferation, Apoptosis and Cell Cycle. Biomolecules 2021; 11:biom11070932. [PMID: 34201602 PMCID: PMC8301966 DOI: 10.3390/biom11070932] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2021] [Revised: 06/18/2021] [Accepted: 06/19/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Human Periodontal Ligament Fibroblasts (hPDLF), as part of the periodontal apparatus, modulate inflammation, regeneration and bone remodeling. Interferences are clinically manifested as attachment loss, tooth loosening and root resorption. During orthodontic tooth movement (OTM), remodeling and adaptation of the periodontium is required in order to enable tooth movement. hPDLF involvement in the early phase-OTM compression side was investigated for a 72-h period through a well-studied in vitro model. Changes in the morphology, cell proliferation and cell death were analyzed. Specific markers of the cell cycle were investigated by RT-qPCR and Western blot. The study showed that the morphology of hPDLF changes towards more unstructured, unsorted filaments under mechanical compression. The total cell numbers were significantly reduced with a higher cell death rate over the whole observation period. hPDLF started to recover to pretreatment conditions after 48 h. Furthermore, key molecules involved in the cell cycle were significantly reduced under compressive force at the gene expression and protein levels. These findings revealed important information for a better understanding of the preservation and remodeling processes within the periodontium through Periodontal Ligament Fibroblasts during orthodontic tooth movement. OTM initially decelerates the hPDLF cell cycle and proliferation. After adapting to environmental changes, human Periodontal Ligament Fibroblasts can regain homeostasis of the periodontium, affecting its reorganization.

Estimation of the Periodontal Inflamed Surface Area by Simple Oral Examination. J Clin Med 2021; 10:jcm10040723. [PMID: 33673121 PMCID: PMC7917734 DOI: 10.3390/jcm10040723] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2021] [Revised: 02/05/2021] [Accepted: 02/08/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The periodontal inflamed surface area (PISA) is a useful index for clinical and epidemiological assessments, since it can represent the inflammation status of patients in one contentious variable. However, calculation of the PISA is difficult, requiring six point probing depth measurements with or without bleeding on probing on 28 teeth, followed by data input in a calculation program. More simple methods are essential for screening periodontal disease or in epidemiological studies. In this study, we tried to establish a convenient partial examination method to estimate PISA. Cross-sectional data of 254 subjects who completed active periodontal therapy were analyzed. Teeth that represent the PISA value were selected by an item response theory approach. The maxillary second molar, first premolar, and lateral incisor and the mandibular second molar and lateral incisor were selected. The sum of the PISAs of these teeth was significantly correlated with the patient’s PISA (R2 = 0.938). More simply, the sum of the maximum values of probing pocket depth with bleeding for these teeth were also significantly correlated with the patient’s PISA (R2 = 0.6457). The simple model presented in this study may be useful to estimate PISA.
