[PMID: 35976062 DOI: 10.1111/odi.14352] [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: 04/01/2022] [Revised: 07/23/2022] [Accepted: 08/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of the study was to determine the anti-osteoclastogenic potential of ginsenoside Rb3 for the treatment of periodontitis. METHODS The anti-osteoclastogenic effect was determined using RANKL-induced RAW264.7 cells and murine bone marrow-derived macrophages followed by TRAP and phalloidin staining. Expression of osteoclastogenesis-related genes and proteins were examined by qPCR and WB. Activation of signaling pathways was detected by WB and IHC techniques. Experimental periodontitis rat model was built up by gingival injections of P. gingivalis LPS. After 21 days of Rb3 treatment, rats were sacrificed for micro-CT, IHC, H&E, and TRAP staining analyses. RESULTS Rb3 dramatically inhibits RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis. Nfatc1, Mmp9, Ctsk, Acp5 mRNA, and MMP9, CTSK proteins were dose-dependently downregulated by Rb3 pretreatment. WB results revealed that Rb3 suppressed activations of p38 MAPK, ERK, and p65 NF-κB, and the inhibition of ERK was most pronounced. Consistently, IHC analysis revealed that p-ERK was highly expressed in alveolar bone surface, blood vessels, odontoblasts, and gingival epithelia, which were notably suppressed by Rb3 treatment. H&E staining and micro-CT analyses showed that Rb3 significantly attenuated gingivitis and alveolar bone resorption in rats. CONCLUSION Rb3 inhibits RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis and attenuates P. gingivalis LPS-induced gingivitis and alveolar bone resorption in rats via ERK/NF-κB signaling pathway.

JAPANESE DENTAL SCIENCE REVIEW 2021; 57:201-208. [PMID: 34703508 PMCID: PMC8524191 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdsr.2021.09.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 59] [Impact Index Per Article: 19.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2021] [Revised: 09/23/2021] [Accepted: 09/29/2021] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Periodontal disease is an inflammatory disease caused by periodontopathogenic bacteria, which eventually leads to bone tissue (alveolar bone) destruction as inflammation persists. Periodontal tissues have an immune system against the invasion of these bacteria, however, due to the persistent infection by periodontopathogenic bacteria, the host innate and acquired immunity is impaired, and tissue destruction, including bone tissue destruction, occurs. Osteoclasts are essential for bone destruction. Osteoclast progenitor cells derived from hematopoietic stem cells differentiate into osteoclasts. In addition, bone loss occurs when bone resorption by osteoclasts exceeds bone formation by osteoblasts. In inflammatory bone disease, inflammatory cytokines act on osteoblasts and receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL)-producing cells, resulting in osteoclast differentiation and activation. In addition to this mechanism, pathogenic factors of periodontal bacteria and mechanical stress activate osteoclasts and destruct alveolar bone in periodontitis. In this review, we focused on the mechanism of osteoclast activation in periodontitis and provide an overview based on the latest findings.

Abstract
Conventional treatments for chronic periodontitis are less effective in controlling inflammation and often relapse. Therefore, it is necessary to explore an immunomodulatory medication as an adjuvant. Ginsenoside Rb3 (Rb3), one of the most abundant active components of ginseng, has been found to possess anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties. Here, we detected the anti-inflammatory effect of Rb3 on Porphyromonas gingivalis LPS-stimulated human periodontal ligament cells and experimental periodontitis rats for the first time. We found that the expression of pro-inflammatory mediators, including IL-1β, IL-6 and IL-8, upregulated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation was remarkably downregulated by Rb3 treatment in a dose-dependent manner at both transcriptional and translational levels. Network pharmacological analysis of Rb3 showed that the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway had the highest richness and that p38, JNK, and ERK molecules were potential targets of Rb3 in humans. Western blot analysis revealed that Rb3 significantly suppressed the phosphorylation of p38 MAPK and p65 NF-κB, as well as decreased the expression of total AKT. In experimental periodontitis rat models, reductions in alveolar bone resorption and osteoclast generation were observed in the Rb3 treatment group. Thus, we can conclude that Rb3 ameliorated Porphyromonas gingivalis LPS-induced inflammation by inhibiting the MAPK/AKT/NF-κB signaling pathways and attenuated alveolar bone resorption in experimental periodontitis rats.

Abstract
In periodontal treatment, topical adjunctive therapy with antimicrobials or anti-inflammatory agents is frequently applied. However, currently available drug carrier biomaterials often exhibit poor perfusion into small crevices, such as the deep and irregular periodontal pockets, due to relatively high viscosity. Moreover, high polymer concentrations of the polymer can potentially be cytotoxic upon confined local administration. This study aimed to formulate an antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory treatment option, by incorporating doxycycline (DOX) and/or lipoxin A4 (LXA4) into 0.5 wt% thermo-reversible polyisocyanopeptide (PIC). PIC can form hydrogels upon low polymer concentration, and we hypothesized that the thermo-reversible nature of the material would allow for application into the periodontal pocket. The formulations were characterized in vitro and finally tested in dogs with naturally occurring periodontitis, which were not euthanized afterward. Results showed that PIC/DOX/LXA4 hydrogel could be easily prepared and injected into periodontal pockets. The PIC hydrogel facilitated the release of DOX or LXA4 for around 4 days in vitro. When applied in dogs, the hydrogel exerted no local or systemic adverse effects. Gels loaded with LXA4 and/or DOX reduced the subgingival bacterial load and pro-inflammatory interleukin-8 level. In addition, PIC-DOX and PIC-DOX+LXA4 improved gingival clinical attachment by 0.6 mm compared with conventional periodontal treatment alone (i.e. mechanical debridement). In conclusion, the thermo-reversible PIC hydrogel is a safe and effective vehicle for periodontal drug delivery.

Abstract
Caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) is used as a therapeutic agent to prevent bone loss. We determined the effects of systemically administered CAPE on alveolar bone loss and oxidative stress in diabetic rats with experimental periodontitis. Forty male rats were divided into four equal groups: control, experimental periodontitis (EP), EP-diabetes mellitus (EP-DM) and EP-DM-CAPE. DM was induced by streptozotocin, then lipopolysaccharide was injected to induce periodontitis. CAPE was administered to the EP-DM-CAPE group daily for 15 days. Then, serum samples were taken and the rats were sacrificed for histological analyses. Serum interleukin (IL-1β) and oxidative stress also were evaluated. Alveolar bone loss was assessed histomorphometrically. Alveolar bone loss and IL-1β levels were significantly less in the EP-DM-CAPE and EP groups compared to the EP-DM group. Oxidative stress was significantly less in the EP-DM-CAPE group compared to the EP and EP-DM groups. Receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) levels were significantly higher in the EP-DM group compared to the disease groups. CAPE significantly reduced RANKL levels in the EP-DM-CAPE group compared to the EP-DM group. We found that CAPE treatment significantly inhibited DM induced oxidative stress and RANKL induced osteoclastogenesis and alveolar bone loss in diabetic rats with periodontitis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate in vitro the effect of clodronate on interleukin-1ß (IL-1ß)-stimulated human periodontal ligament fibroblasts (HPdLFs) with the focus on inflammatory factors of orthodontic tooth movement with and without compressive force. MATERIALS AND METHODS HPdLFs were incubated with 5 μM clodronate and 10 ng/mL IL-1ß. After 48 h, cells were exposed to 3 h of compressive force using a centrifuge. The gene expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), interleukin-6 (IL-6), matrix metalloproteinase 8 (MMP-8), and the tissue inhibitor of MMP (TIMP-1) was analyzed using RT-PCR. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE-2), IL-6, and TIMP-1 protein syntheses were quantified via ELISA. RESULTS Compressive force and IL-1ß induced an overexpression of COX-2 gene expression (61.8-fold; p < 0.05 compared with control), diminished by clodronate (41.1-fold; p < 0.05 compared with control). Clodronate slowed down the compression and IL-1ß induced IL-6 gene expression (161-fold vs. 85.6-fold; p < 0.05 compared with control). TNF-α was only slightly affected without statistical significance. Clodronate reduced IL-1ß-stimulated MMP-8 expression with and without compressive force. TIMP-1 on gene and protein level was downregulated in all groups. Analyzing the MMP-8/TIMP-1 ratio, the highest ratio was detected in IL-1ß-stimulated HPdLFs with compressive force (21.2-fold; p < 0.05 compared with control). Clodronate diminished IL-1ß-induced upregulation of MMP-8/TIMP-1 ratio with (11.5-fold; p < 0.05 compared with control) and without (12.5-fold; p < 0.05 compared with control) compressive force. CONCLUSION Our study demonstrates a slightly anti-inflammatory effect by clodronate under compressive force in vitro. Additionally, the periodontal remodeling presented by the MMP-8/TIMP-1 ratio seems to be diminished by clodronate. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Reduction of pro-inflammatory factors and reduction of periodontal remodeling might explain reduced orthodontic tooth movement under clodronate intake.

A Novel Analysis via Micro-CT Imaging Indicates That Chemically Modified Tetracycline-3 (CMT-3) Inhibits Tooth Relapse after Orthodontic Movement: A Pilot Experimental Study. Int J Dent 2019; 2019:3524207. [PMID: 31065268 PMCID: PMC6466921 DOI: 10.1155/2019/3524207] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/26/2018] [Revised: 11/11/2018] [Accepted: 12/03/2018] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective To evaluate the effect of chemically modified tetracycline-3 (CMT-3) and simvastatin on tooth relapse after orthodontic movement in rats using a novel analysis method employing high-resolution micro-CT (Micro-CT) images. In addition, the correlation between bone density and orthodontic relapse was also evaluated for each experimental group. Methods Forty adult male Wistar rats had stainless steel springs installed on their left upper first molars in order to generate tooth movement for 18 days. After this initial period, the animals were divided into three groups: (1) 30 mg/kg of CMT-3; (2) 5 mg/kg of simvastatin; and (3) 0.5% carboxymethylcellulose, and each group was treated for 20 days. Micro-CT images were analyzed (conventional method and 3D reconstruction) on the 7th and 18th days following spring fixation and finally, 20 days after treatment either with CMT-3 or simvastatin (38th day). Bone mineral density (BMD) of the mesial and distal roots of the upper first molar was also analyzed. Results The difference was statistically significant between the groups as to recurrence (p=0.048), and the post hoc test identified the value of p=0.007 between the control group and the CMT-3 group. Simvastatin was not able to inhibit tooth relapse. The bone mineral densities of both the mesial and distal roots were different between the three groups, after the 20th day of drug use (p=0001 and p < 0001). Conclusion Our findings support the initial evidence that CMT-3 is able to prevent relapse after tooth movement. Future trials in humans should evaluate such treatment as a promising approach to preventing this common phenomenon. Clinical Relevance Considering the results obtained, CMT-3 can be used to avoid relapse after tooth movement.

Abstract
Background/purpose Caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) is an antioxidant which is decreases the bone resorption and enhances the bone healing. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of administering systemic CAPE on alveolar bone loss in rats with experimental periodontitis. Materials and methods Thirty male Sprague Dawley rats were divided into three groups: control, endotoxin-induced periodontitis (EP), and EP treated with CAPE (EP-CAPE). Endotoxin was injected into the gingiva of test rats on days 1, 3, and 5, whereas saline was injected into the control rats. The EP-CAPE group received 10 mmol/kg/day CAPE intraperitoneally for 28 consecutive days. Saline was given in the control and EP groups in the same manner. At the end of the study, intracardiac blood samples were obtained, and the rats were sacrificed. Alveolar bone loss was analyzed with histometric measurements. The oxidative stress index (OSI) was used to evaluate the oxidative stress. The receptor activator of the nuclear factor kappa B ligand (RANKL) level was analyzed stereologically. Results CAPE administration significantly decreased the serum OSI and interleukin-1β levels. Alveolar bone loss was statistically higher in the EP group compared with the EP-CAPE group (P < 0.05). Immunohistochemical analyses of the RANKL were significantly lower in the EP-CAPE group than in the EP group (P < 0.05). Conclusion This experimental study revealed that CAPE administration significantly prevented alveolar bone loss and stimulated periodontal tissue healing.

Abstract
Human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) transplantation represents a promising approach for periodontal regeneration; however, the cell source is limited due to the invasive procedure required for cell isolation. As human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUCMSCs) can be harvested inexpensively and inexhaustibly, here we evaluated the regenerative potentials of hUCMSCs as compared with hPDLSCs to determine whether hUCMSCs could be used as new cell sources for periodontal regeneration. Methods The characteristics of hUCMSCs, including multi-differentiation ability and anti-inflammatory capability, were determined by comparison with hPDLSCs. We constructed cell aggregates (CA) using hUCMSCs and hPDLSCs respectively. Then hPDLSCs-CA and hUCMSCs-CA were combined with β-tricalcium phosphate bioceramic (β-TCP) respectively and their regenerative potentials were determined in a rat inflammatory periodontal defect model. Results hPDLSCs showed higher osteogenic differentiation potentials than hUCMSCs. Meanwhile, hUCMSCs showed higher extracellular matrix secretion and anti-inflammatory abilities than hPDLSCs. Similar to hPDLSCs, hUCMSCs were able to contribute to regeneration of both soft and hard periodontal tissues under inflammatory periodontitis condition. There were more newly formed bone and periodontal ligaments in hPDLSCs and hUCMSCs groups than in non-cell treated group. Moreover, no significant differences of regenerative promoting effects between hPDLSCs and hUCMSCs were found. Conclusion: hUCMSCs generated similar promoting effects on periodontal regeneration compared with hPDLSCs, and can be used as new cell sources for periodontal regeneration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Anti-inflammatory and immunologic properties of cannabinoids have been reported in several tissues. Expression of cannabinoid receptor Type 2 was reported in osteoblasts and osteoclasts, suggesting a key role in bone metabolism. The aim of this study is to assess the effect of treatment with cannabinoid-2 receptor agonist HU-308 in the oral health of rats subjected to lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced periodontitis. METHODS Twenty-four rats were distributed in four groups (six rats per group): 1) control rats; 2) sham rats; 3) rats submitted to experimental periodontitis (LPS); and 4) rats submitted to experimental periodontitis and treated with HU-308 (LPS+HU). In groups LPS and LPS+HU, periodontitis was induced by LPS (1 mg/mL) injected into the gingival tissue (GT) of maxillary and mandibular first molars and into the interdental space between the first and second molars, 3 days per week for 6 weeks. In group LPS+HU, HU-308 (500 ng/mL) was applied topically to the GT daily. RESULTS Alveolar bone loss resulting from LPS-induced periodontitis was significantly attenuated with HU-308 treatment (LPS+HU), measured by macroscopic and histologic examination. Treatment also reduced gingival production of inflammatory mediators augmented in LPS-injected rats, such as: 1) inducible nitric oxide (iNOS) activity (LPS: 90.18 ± 36.51 pmol/minute/mg protein versus LPS+HU: 16.37 ± 4.73 pmol/minute/mg protein; P <0.05); 2) tumor necrosis factor alpha (LPS: 185.70 ± 25.63 pg/mg protein versus LPS+HU: 95.89 ± 17.47 pg/mg protein; P <0.05); and 3) prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) (LPS: 159.20 ± 38.70 pg/mg wet weight versus LPS+HU: 71.25 ± 17.75 pg/mg wet weight; P <0.05). Additionally, HU-308 treatment prevented the inhibitory effect of LPS-induced periodontitis on the salivary secretory response to pilocarpine. Moreover, iNOS activity and PGE2 content, which were increased by LPS-induced periodontitis in the submandibular gland, returned to control values after HU-308 treatment. CONCLUSION This study demonstrates anti-inflammatory, osteoprotective, and prohomeostatic effects of HU-308 in oral tissues of rats with LPS-induced periodontitis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Matrix metalloproteinase-8 (MMP-8) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-1 (TIMP-1) have recently been suggested to be involved in coagulation process. Our objectives were to observe systemic MMP-8 and TIMP-1 levels in patients with severe sepsis with or without disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) and to study their relationship with coagulation markers over time. METHODS Our prospective pilot study included 22 patients with severe sepsis, nine (41%) of whom had overt DIC. We analysed MMP-8 and TIMP-1 serum concentrations by time-resolved immunofluorometric and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays, respectively, on days 1, 2, 4 and 7 after the intensive care unit admission. Traditional coagulation tests were taken at the same time points. The results were compared between patients with and without DIC. Blood samples from 10 healthy volunteers were used to demonstrate normal levels. RESULTS Both patient groups had elevated levels of MMP-8 and TIMP-1 as compared with healthy controls. TIMP-1 concentration was almost twofold in DIC patients compared with those without DIC on the first 2 days. MMP-8 was elevated only on day 2. TIMP-1 correlated positively with the severity of coagulation disturbance and with disease severity scores. MMP-8 correlated negatively only with platelet count. CONCLUSION In this first human study, we could show that TIMP-1 is elevated in the early phase of sepsis-induced overt DIC, and it correlates both with degree of coagulopathy and disease severity. These findings suggest that TIMP-1 may play a role in the pathogenesis of DIC in septic patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to assess the effects of chronic alcohol consumption on periodontitis development in rats. METHODS Periodontal disease was experimentally induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS; 2 mg/ml) injections into the gingival tissue around first upper and lower molar's neck, and into the interdental space between first and second molars. This protocol was repeated for 6 weeks on days 1, 3, and 5 of each week. Chronic alcohol consumption was induced by 20% ethanol (EtOH) as the only liquid source during 4 months. RESULTS Chronic alcohol consumption by itself increased alveolar bone loss and biological mediators of periodontal disease such as prostaglandin E2 (PGE2 ) content on gingival tissue, and inducible nitric oxide synthase activity plus PGE2 content in submandibular gland. Unexpectedly, alcohol consumption did not increase the damage evoked by the proved model of LPS injections for periodontitis induction. CONCLUSIONS Results suggest 20% alcohol consumption during 4 months generates differential effects on oral health of rats, depending on its pathophysiological state: It would exacerbate the inflammatory condition when periodontal damage is absent, but it would not when damage is installed.

Abstract
Introduction Periodontitis is initiated and sustained by bacteria. However, the mechanism of bacteria induced periodontitis is still unknown. We hypothesized that bacterial components can affect the functions of stem cells in the periodontium. In this study, we comparatively investigated the influence of Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on the osteogenesis potential of human periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs). Methods Human PDLSCs and BMMSCs were harvested and mineralized nodule formation was assessed by alizarin red S staining. Expression level of osteogenic related gene was detected by quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR). The expression of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and its downstream signaling pathway were examined by western blot. The role of TLR4 and related signaling pathway in LPS impairing the osteogenic potential of human PDLSCs and BMMSCs were also studied by alizarin red S staining and qRT-PCR. Experimental periodontitis was induced in adult Sprague–Dawley rats and the alveolar bone loss was measured by micro computed tomography analysis. The expression of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was assessed by immunohistochemistry and the number of osteoclasts was shown by Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining. Results LPS decreased the osteogenic differentiation of human PDLSCs through TLR4 regulated nuclear factor (NF)-κB pathway, but not for BMMSCs. Blocking TLR4 or NF-κB signaling partially reversed the decreased osteogenic potential of PDLSCs and prevented the alveolar bone loss caused by LPS experimental periodontitis in rats. The ALP expression in the periodontal ligament was elevated after treatment with anti-TLR4 antibody or pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate, whereas there was no statistical significance among groups for the number of osteoclasts. Conclusions These data suggest that LPS can activate TLR4 regulated NF-κB pathway of human PDLSCs, thus decreasing their osteogenic potential. Blockage of TLR4 or NF-κB pathway might provide a new approach for periodontitis treatment.

Abstract
Chronic periodontitis is a complex infection initiated by gram-negative bacteria which destroy the supporting structures of the tooth. Recently, it has been recognized that it is the host response to bacterial infection which causes greater destruction of the connective tissue elements, periodontal ligament and alveolar bone in periodontitis. This has led to the development of various host modulating approaches to target cells and their destructive mediators involved in tissue degradation. Chemically modified tetracyclines (CMTs) are derivatives of tetracycline group of drugs which lack antimicrobial action but have potent host modulating affects. They inhibit pathologically elevated matrix metal loproteinases, pro-inflammtory cytokines and other destructive mediators. Bone resorption is also suppressed due to their combined anti-proteinase and apoptotic affects on osteoblasts and osteoclasts, respectively. Development of resistant bacteria and gastrointestinal toxicity seen with parent tetracyclines is not produced by CMTs. Hence, CMTs are viewed as potential therapeutic agents in the management of chronic diseases like periodontitis that involve destruction of connective tissue and bone.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Evidence exists of the anti-inflammatory and immunological properties of endocannabinoids in various tissues; the aim of the present study was therefore to assess the effect of long-term treatment with the synthetic cannabinoid methanandamide (Meth-AEA) on the progression of periodontitis in rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS Periodontitis was induced by injecting LPS (1 mg/ml) into the gingiva around the neck of the first upper and lower molars, and into the inter-dental space between the first and second molars. This protocol was repeated for 6 weeks on days 1, 3, and 5 of each week. RESULTS Long-term treatment with topical Meth-AEA (500 ng/ml), applied daily to gingival tissue of rats induced with periodontitis, significantly diminished the alveolar bone loss, measured as the distance between the cemento-enamel junction and the alveolar crest, in both maxillary and mandibular first molars, compared to rats without treatment (P < 0.05). The treatment also reduced the production of some biological mediators of periodontal disease augmented by LPS, such as tumor necrosis factor alpha (from 119.4 ± 9.9 pg/mg protein to 75.1 ± 10.8, P < 0.05) and nitric oxide produced by inducible nitric oxide synthase (from 507.7 ± 107.1 pmol/min/mg protein to 163.1 ± 53.9, P < 0.01). CONCLUSION These results demonstrate the beneficial effects of treatment with Meth-AEA on gingival tissue of rats with periodontitis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Oral epidemiologic investigations in China western territory have showed that the immigrants in the plateau have a higher morbidity with periodontitis. To find the possible relationship between the pathogenesis of periodontitis and altitude hypoxia, we designed a periodontitis rat model via housed in low pressure oxygen chamber and investigated the bacterial diversity in the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF). DESIGN Eighty Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into CON-normal, CON-hypoxia, EXP-normal and EXP-hypoxia group, without or with periodontal induce, breeding in normal environment or altitude hypoxia environment. Periodontal parameters (including gingival index, GI, and tooth mobility, TM) were measured after 2, 4, 6 and 8 weeks; periodontal samples were collected for histological analysis after rats were sacrificed at the 8th week. The 16S rDNA of bacteria in GCF was amplified by PCR at the 8th week, and separated by the denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) approach. RESULTS EXP-hypoxia group's GI and TM showed later and more severe periodontal tissue damage than EXP-normal (p<0.05 or 0.01). The histologic analyses did not find any pathologic difference between EXP-hypoxia and EXP-normal groups except for a slight difference on the lesion degree. By the DGGE analyses, the bacteria of five samples in the same group showed high concordance, but the bacteria in the different groups showed a great diversity. CONCLUSION The course of periodontitis in altitude hypoxia environment is later than normal, but the degree of periodontal lesion was more severe and microbial community in GCF can be affected by the altitude hypoxia environment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Poor diet and inadequate nutrition are suggested to affect the periodontium as well as impair the systemic health. This study investigated the systemic and periodontal effects of dietary-induced hyperparathyroidism (dHPT) by evaluating serum and gingival proinflammatory cytokine levels. METHODS Twenty-four Sprague-Dawley rats were used in the study. dHPT was induced in 12 rats by calcium/phosphorus imbalance, and 12 rats were fed a standard diet (SD). Afterward, endotoxin-induced periodontitis was induced on the right mandibular molar teeth (mmt). Four study groups were created: dHPT + mmt without periodontitis (group 1), dHPT + mmt with periodontitis (group 2), SD + mmt with periodontitis (group 3), and SD + mmt without periodontitis (group 4). Interleukin (IL)-1beta and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to evaluate the proinflammatory cytokine profiles. Serum cytokines were analyzed in the blood samples collected prior to periodontitis induction, whereas gingival cytokines were analyzed in the gingival supernatants of the four groups. RESULTS Serum cytokines were higher in dHPT rats than in SD rats (P <0.001), with a positive correlation between parathormone and the cytokines (P <0.001). Gingival cytokines were highest in group 2 and lowest in group 4 (group 2 > group 3 > group 1) (P <0.001). There was a positive correlation between parathormone and the gingival cytokines in group 1 (P <0.001 for IL-1beta; P <0.01 for TNF-alpha). CONCLUSION The results suggested that increased serum proinflammatory cytokine production may be a complication of dHPT, and this may affect healthy and diseased periodontia by increasing gingival proinflammatory cytokine levels.

Abstract
This review addresses the role of adjunctive tetracycline therapy in the management of periodontal diseases and its efficacy in reducing inflammatory burden, oxidative stress and its sequelae in patients with coexisting features of metabolic syndrome. Removal of the dimethylamine group at C4 of the tetracycline molecule reduces its antibiotic properties, enhancing its non-antimicrobial actions; this strategy has aided the development of several chemically modified tetracyclines such as minocycline and doxycycline, by altering different regions of the molecule for focused action on biological targets. Tetracyclines are effective in reducing inflammation by inhibiting matrix metalloproteinases, preventing excessive angiogenesis, inhibiting apoptosis and stimulating bone formation. There are important applications for tetracyclines in the management of diabetic, dyslipidaemic periodontal patients who smoke. The diverse mechanisms of action of tetracyclines in overcoming oxidative stress and enhancing matrix synthesis are discussed in this review.

Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) have outgrown the field of extracellular-matrix biology and have progressed towards being important regulatory molecules in cancer and inflammation. This rise in status was accompanied by the development of various classes of inhibitors. Although clinical trials with synthetic inhibitors for the treatment of cancer were disappointing, recent data indicate that the use of selective inhibitors might lead to new therapies for acute and chronic inflammatory and vascular diseases. In this Review, we compare the major classes of MMP inhibitors and advocate that future drug discovery should be based on crucial insights into the differential roles of specific MMPs in pathophysiology obtained with animal models, including knockout studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bacterial constituents, such as Gram-negative derived lipopolysaccharide (LPS), can initiate inflammatory bone loss through induction of host-derived inflammatory cytokines. The aim of this study was to establish a model of aggressive inflammatory alveolar bone loss in rats using LPS derived from the periodontal pathogen Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans. METHODS Eighteen female Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into LPS test (N = 12) and saline control (N = 6) groups. All animals received injections to the palatal molar gingiva three times per week for 8 weeks. At 8 weeks, linear and volumetric alveolar bone loss was measured by micro-computed tomography (microCT). The prevalence of inflammatory infiltrate, proinflammatory cytokines, and osteoclasts was assessed from hematoxylin and eosin, immunohistochemical, or tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-stained sections. Statistical analysis was performed. RESULTS A. actinomycetemcomitans LPS induced severe bone loss over 8 weeks, whereas control groups were unchanged. Linear and volumetric analysis of maxillae by microCT indicated significant loss of bone with LPS administration. Histologic examination revealed increased inflammatory infiltrate, significantly increased immunostaining for interleukin IL-6 and -1beta and tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and more TRAP-positive osteoclasts in the LPS group compared to controls. CONCLUSION Oral injections of LPS derived from the periodontal pathogen A. actinomycetemcomitans can induce severe alveolar bone loss and proinflammatory cytokine production in rats by 8 weeks.

Abstract
AIM To determine the effect of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) inhibition on periapical lesion formation in a rat model. METHODOLOGY The pulp chambers of mandibular fist molars of adult SD rats were exposed to be infected by oral microbes. The experimental group was fed 20 mg kg(-1) MMP-inhibitor chemically modified tetracycline-3 (CMT-3) daily in an oral gavage and the controls were fed the vehicle. After 2 and 4 weeks, the mandibles (n = 10 in both groups at both times) were radiographed, decalcified and subjected to histological analysis. Extension of necrosis in first molar distal root canals was measured from the histological sections, and periapical lesion sizes in the same roots were determined from radiographs and histological sections. Mann-Whitney U-test was used for the statistical analysis. RESULTS There was a statistically significant difference in the extension of necrosis in root canals between 2 and 4 weeks in the control group (P < 0.05), but not with MMP inhibition. Radiographically, MMP inhibition increased the periapical lesion size by 70% and 34% after 2 and 4 weeks respectively (P < 0.05 in after 2 weeks). In histological measurements, lesion size increased with MMP inhibition by 26% and 8% after 2 and 4 weeks respectively. CONCLUSIONS MMP inhibition affects pulpal and periapical inflammation, increasing the rate of spreading of necrosis in root canals and the rate of periapical lesion formation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play important roles in tissue destruction mechanisms of periodontitis. MMP-8 and -13 are the major collagenases that act in extracellular matrix degradation in periodontal tissues. MMP-14 is a membrane-type MMP, and laminin (Ln)-5 is a basal membrane component. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of doxycycline and alendronate on gingival tissue expression of MMP-8, -13, and -14; tissue inhibitors of MMP (TIMP)-1; and Ln-5 gamma2 chain in experimental periodontitis induced by Escherichia coli endotoxin (LPS) in rats. METHODS Experimental periodontitis was induced by repeated injection of LPS. Forty-four adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into five study groups: saline control, LPS, LPS + doxycycline, LPS + alendronate, and LPS + doxycycline + alendronate. Doxycycline and alendronate were given as a single agent or as combination therapy during the 7 days of the experimental study period. On day 7, the rats were sacrificed, and the gingival tissues were analyzed immunohistochemically for expression of MMP-8, -13, and -14, Ln-5 gamma2 chain, and TIMP-1. Alveolar bone loss was evaluated morphometrically under a stereomicroscope. Data were tested statistically by Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests and Spearman correlation analysis. RESULTS Alveolar bone loss was significantly higher in the LPS, doxycycline, alendronate, and combination groups than in the saline control group (all P <0.01). MMP-8 expression was significantly higher in the LPS group than in the saline control group (P = 0.001). Individual administration of doxycycline or alendronate significantly decreased the expression of MMP-8 compared to LPS (P = 0.01). Combined drug administration reduced MMP-14 significantly compared to doxycycline (P = 0.004). No significant differences in Ln-5 gamma2 chain expression were found between the study groups (P >0.05). MMP-14 significantly correlated with the Ln-5 gamma2 chain in the LPS + alendronate group (P = 0.04) and with the amount of alveolar bone loss in the LPS + doxycycline + alendronate group (P = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that alendronate and/or doxycycline may inhibit MMP-8 expression significantly; particularly, their combined administration may provide beneficial effects in periodontal treatment. Moreover, individual administration of alendronate and doxycycline results in significant increases in TIMP-1 expression in gingiva. However, these effects of combined low-dose doxycycline and alendronate on MMPs and TIMP should be verified by clinical human trials before these agents are used in dental practice.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate inhibitory effects of synthetic matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) inhibitors in vitro on gelatinolytic and collagenolytic activities in tracheal epithelial lining fluid (TELF) of horses with recurrent airway obstruction (RAO). ANIMALS 10 horses with RAO and 5 healthy control horses. PROCEDURES Substrate-based functional assays, collagen I and gelatin degradation, were used to measure endogenous collagenolytic and gelatinolytic activities in TELF. In vitro inhibition of MMP activity in TELF with 2 chemically modified tetracyclines (CMTs; CMT-3 and CMT-8) and 2 bisphosphonates (BPs; zoledronate and pamidronate) was evaluated. RESULTS CMT-3, CMT-8, zoledronate, and pamidronate in a dose-dependent manner inhibited TELF type I collagenolytic and gelatinolytic activities, although no complete inhibition of TELF type I collagenolytic and gelatinolytic activities was achieved with the inhibitor concentrations of 25 to 500 microM tested. The CMTs inhibited pathologically induced collagen I degradation more effectively than BPs. Of the tested CMTs, CMT-3 was the most effective inhibitor of gelatinolytic activity, and the efficiency of CMT-3 corresponded with that of the BPs. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE An increase in MMP activity in the equine respiratory tract may potentially be inhibited by administration of CMTs or BPs. Distinct synthetic MMP inhibitors may eventually provide an additional means for pharmacologic treatment by decreasing ongoing active tissue destructive inflammation associated with chronic lung disease. The MMP inhibitors such as CMTs and BPs that are targeted to solely inhibit a pathologic increase in MMP activities provide the advantage of minimal adverse effects that are characteristics of other excessively potent MMP inhibitors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of minocycline on treating experimentally induced periodontitis in rats when administered either as a systemic subantimicrobial dose or as a topical ointment. DESIGN Thirty-two adult male Sprague-Dawley rats in four experimental groups-(1) model group; (2) systemic subantimicrobial dose of minocycline (5mg/kg/day) treatment group; (3) topical subgingival dose of minocycline (2mg/animal/week) treatment group; (4) control group. Experimentally induced periodontitis-silk ligatures were placed around the crevices of the second molar teeth and the animals fed a 10% sucrose drink. Assessment was carried out at days 28 and 56 using a number of different visual, histological and ultrastructure approaches. (1) Visual assessment-tooth mobility, gingival index and alveolar bone loss. (2) Histological examination-monocyte infiltration and resorption lacunae with osteoclasts. (3) Transmission electron microscopy (TEM)-morphological transformation of fibroblasts and osteoclasts. The collected data were analysed for statistical significance using the analysis of variance statistical test. RESULTS Minocycline significantly reduced tooth mobility, gingival index and alveolar bone loss when administered either systemically or as a topical ointment compared to the model group (P<0.01). However, the alveolar bone loss was significantly less (P<0.01 in the systemic treatment group compared to the local treatment group. Monocyte infiltration and resorption lacunae with osteoclasts were significantly less in the both treatment groups compared to the model group (P<0.01). The osteoclasts failed to form a ruffled border in the systemic treatment group. CONCLUSION Topical treatment significantly reduces gingivitis while systemic treatment is beneficial in terms of inhibiting alveolar bone loss.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Periodontitis is characterized by gingival inflammation, periodontal pocket formation, and bacterial plaque that lead to alveolar bone destruction. Research studies have recently begun to evaluate the effect of antiresorptive agents using experimental models of periodontitis. Bisphosphonates are the most frequently tested antiresorptive agents; their main effect is inhibition of bone resorption. The aim of this study was to perform a histomorphometric evaluation of the preventive effect of monosodium olpadronate (OPD), an aminobisphosphonate, on experimental periodontitis (EP). METHODS Twenty male Wistar rats were used in this experiment. The animals were assigned to one of two groups: group I: EP; and group II: EP plus topical administration of OPD (EP + OPD). The contralateral side in both groups served as untreated controls (CI and CII), respectively. Mesio-distally oriented sections of each lower first molar were obtained for histomorphometric evaluation. RESULTS The treated group (EP + OPD) exhibited marked inhibition of bone loss; interradicular bone volume was significantly greater than that observed in the EP group. The height of the periodontal ligament in the interradicular alveolar bone, which served as an indirect measure of bone loss, was found to be significantly increased in the EP group as compared to the EP + OPD group. Osteoclasts in the OPD treated group were detached from the bone surface, were round in shape, and exhibited a loss of polarity and lack of ruffled borders. CONCLUSIONS The dose used herein was found to inhibit bone loss and to cause marked morphologic changes in osteoclasts. The drug effectively prevented bone loss caused by periodontitis.

Abstract
Systemic therapies for joint disease may be prescribed when a single joint is involved or when multiple sites are affected. The precise therapeutic regimen recommended depends on the duration,cause, and site(s) of injury and is often an adjunct to intra-articular or supportive therapies. If the clinical signs of joint disease are acute and moderate in severity, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are often administered to alleviate pain and inflammation. When aiming for more of a generalized maintenance or chondro-protective regimen, an alternative medication, such as hyaluronan,polysulfated glycosaminoglycan, or a nutraceutical will commonly be prescribed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To review the biological mechanisms and clinical utility of therapeutic modulation of the host response in the management of periodontal diseases. MATERIAL AND METHODS A search of MEDLINE-PubMed was performed up to and including December 2004. The search was limited to in vitro, experimental animal and clinical studies published in English. The selection criteria included all levels of available evidence: systematic reviews, randomised-controlled clinical trials, controlled clinical trials, prospective and retrospective cohort studies and case reports of human and experimental animal studies. RESULTS Six targets for non-microbial chemotherapeutic intervention were identified. Clinical trials have demonstrated the ability of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs to slow periodontal disease progression. However, recently reported serious adverse effects preclude the use of cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors as an adjunct to periodontal therapy. Adjunctive use of subantimicrobial dose doxycycline to non-surgical periodontal therapy is beneficial in the management of chronic periodontitis over 12 months. Controversial data exist on the effects of bisphosphonate administration as an adjunct to periodontal therapy. Evidence on modulation of other host mediators including lipoxins, cytokines and nitric oxide synthase is limited to animal research. CONCLUSION After validation in long-term clinical trials, adjunctive host modulation therapy may prove advantageous in the management of periodontal diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Doxycycline has been widely used in periodontal treatment for its antimicrobial and anti-enzymatic effects. Recently, bisphosphonates have been shown to inhibit alveolar bone resorption. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of doxycycline and the bisphosphonate alendronate on the gingival tissue levels of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), prostaglandin F2alpha (PGF2alpha), leukotriene B4 (LTB4), and platelet-activating factor (PAF) in endotoxin-induced periodontal breakdown in rats. METHODS Experimental periodontitis was induced by repeated injection of Escherichia coli endotoxin (LPS) and 44 adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into five study groups as follows: LPS, doxycycline + LPS, alendronate + LPS, doxycycline + alendronate + LPS, and saline control. Doxycycline and alendronate were given either as a single agent or as a combination therapy during the 7-day study period. At the end of the 1-week protocol, the rats were sacrificed, the gingival tissues were dissected and extracted, and the extracts were analyzed for PGE2, PGF2alpha, LTB4, and PAF levels. The defleshed jaws were analyzed morphometrically for alveolar bone loss. Data were evaluated statistically by using parametric tests. RESULTS Alveolar bone loss measurements revealed significantly higher values in LPS, doxycycline + LPS, alendronate + LPS, and doxycycline + alendronate + LPS groups in comparison to the saline control group (P <0.05). Combined administration of doxycycline and alendronate exhibited the most prominent inhibition on gingival tissue levels of PGE2 and PGF2alpha (P<0.05). Doxycycline + alendronate + LPS group also significantly reduced LTB4 and PAF levels, although doxycycline provided the most reduction in the levels of these mediators (P <0.05). CONCLUSIONS Alendronate and/or doxycycline may provide significant inhibition of the major inflammatory mediators of periodontal tissue destruction, and combined administration of these agents may provide beneficial effects in periodontal treatment. However, this hypothesis must be further verified by clinical human trials before introducing its use in dental practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Periodontal disease (PD) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) share many common pathophysiologic features, but a clinical relationship between the two conditions remains controversial, in part because of the confounding effects of anti-inflammatory drug therapy universally used in the latter disease. To further explore this issue, inflammatory arthritis was induced in rats to determine the effect on gingival biomarkers of inflammation and tissue destruction and to investigate the effect of a therapeutic intervention devoid of conventional anti-inflammatory properties. METHODS Adjuvant arthritis (AA) was induced in Lewis male rats by injecting mycobacterium cell wall in complete Freund's adjuvant using standard techniques. One group of animals was treated by induction of systemic tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinases (TIMP-4). At 3 weeks, arthritis severity was recorded and both paw and gingival tissues were collected for matrix metalloproteinase activity (MMP) and cytokine analysis. In addition, the maxillary jaws were removed for assessment of periodontal bone loss. RESULTS The development of arthritis was associated with elevated joint tissue MMPs, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, and interleukin (IL)-1beta levels compared to control rats. In the gingival tissue of the untreated arthritic rats, gelatinase, collagenase, TNF-alpha, and IL-1beta were also elevated compared to control rats. Periodontal bone loss and tooth mobility were also increased significantly (P <0.05) in untreated arthritic rats. All parameters improved after TIMP-4 gene therapy. CONCLUSIONS To our knowledge, this is the first study to report an association between experimental systemic arthritis in rats and elevated gingival tissue MMPs, cytokine levels, and periodontal disease. Reversal of these changes with TIMP-4 gene therapy strengthens the pathophysiologic correlation between systemic and local disease.

Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinases belong to a diverse group of enzymes that are not only involved in restructuring the extracellular matrix, but also play a major role in various pathophysiological conditions by virtue of their complicated expression, activation, and regulation processes. They have been widely implicated to function as major contenders in cancer progression, frequently due to their role in invasion, proliferation and metastasis. MMP inhibitors have been specifically designed to target these altered activities of MMPs, mostly by means of inhibiting their function and by diminishing their increased expression in various disease states, particularly cancer. Tetracyclines and chemically modified tetracyclines (CMTs) have been rationally designed to inhibit the activity of MMPs and thus decrease the potential risk of spread of tumor cells to distant sites by invasion and metastasis. Pre-clinical and early clinical data for one of these CMTs, COL-3 (formerly CMT-3) indicate considerable potential for this group of anticancer agents. Further testing and rational modifications of these CMT analogues might lead to new anticancer agents.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play crucial role in various tissue destructive inflammatory processes by degrading almost all peri-cellular and basement membrane components. MMP-8 (collagenase-2) is the major MMP in periodontitis. MMP-7 (matrilysin-1), in addition to its ability to degrade matrix and basement membrane components, activates other latent pro-MMPs and defensins, host cell-derived antimicrobial cryptidins. The aim of the present study was to characterize the relationship, levels and molecular forms of MMP-8 and MMP-7 in diseased peri-implant sulcular fluid (PISF). MATERIALS AND METHODS Seventy-two human dental implant fluid samples were collected with filter paper strips from peri-implant sulci from healthy and untreated diseased implant sites. Gingival index (GI) and/or bone resorption (BR) were also recorded. Western immunoblot method with polyclonal anti-human-MMP-8 and monoclonal anti-human-MMP-7 antibodies was used, and immunoreactivities were quantified with computer scanning program. The effects of MMP inhibitors (doxycycline, chemically modified tetracycline-3, clodronate, CTT-peptide and marimastat) were studied on the activity of recombinant human matrilysin-1 (MMP-7) using beta-casein degradation assay. RESULTS The levels of active forms of MMP-8 and MMP-7 were significantly elevated in diseased PISF in relation to healthy PISF. Furthermore, MMP-8 and MMP-7 levels correlated significantly to each other and GI. MMP-8 was present not only as bands corresponding to 75-kDa polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN) -type pro- and 65-kDa active forms, but also as 55-kDa non-PMN-type pro- and 45-kDa active forms. Immunoreactivities > 80 kDa most likely represented dimeric and/or inhibitor-bound MMP-8 complexes and the low molecular weight (< 30 kDa) species were apparently degraded fragments. In diseased PISF, 19-21-kDa active MMP-7 and 28-30-kDa pro-MMP-7 species were detected, and the active 19-21-kDa forms of MMP-7 predominated in diseased PISF. Doxycycline (50 micro m and 250 micro m), chemically modified non-antimicrobial tetracycline (CMT-3) (50 micro m and 100 micro m), clodronate (a bisphosphonate, 20 micro m and 500 micro m) and the cyclic CTT (CTTHWGFTLC)-peptide (125 micro m and 250 micro m), all known broad-spectrum or selective MMP-inhibitors, did not inhibit the activity of human recombinant MMP-7; only marimastat (1 micro m and 5 micro m) inhibited MMP-7. DISCUSSION Increased immunoreactivities of the active MMP-8 and MMP-7 species in PISF from diseased peri-implantitis lesions eventually reflect the stage and course of peri-implantitis; MMP-7 may potentially act as MMP-8 and defensin activator in diseased PISF. CONCLUSION The elevated levels of MMP-8 and matrilysin-1/MMP-7 were identified in active forms in diseased PISF, but MMP-7 was less prominent. MMP inhibitors, potential future tissue protective drugs, seemingly do not interfere with the defensive antibacterial action of MMP-7.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent animal studies have shown that a combination of chemically-modified tetracyclines together with bisphosphonates, when delivered systemically, are synergistically effective in suppressing periodontal bone loss. In the present study, we explored the combined efficacy of local delivery of alendronate and tetracyclines in reducing alveolar bone loss. METHODS Eighty-six (86) male Wistar rats were used in these experiments. The flap was elevated using a special periosteal elevator, on both sides of the mandible, as described previously. A gelfoam pellet containing the drugs was applied between the alveolar bone and the mucoperiosteal flap, according to the experimental protocol. The rats were divided into 5 treatment groups: 1) alendronate; 2) doxycycline hyclate 10% (DOXY); 3) tetracycline hydrochloride 1% (TET); 4) alendronate + DOXY; and 5) alendronate + TET. In the operated control sites (C), saline was applied. The rats were sacrificed 21 days following the flap procedure. Sections of the mandibles (1.5 mm), in a buccal-lingual direction, underwent microradiography and were analyzed for bone loss. RESULTS DOXY alone was most effective in reducing bone loss. Alendronate was also effective in reducing bone loss as shown in previous reports. TET did not reduce bone loss significantly when used alone. In combination with alendronate TET was synergistically effective. The combined local treatment of alendronate + DOXY showed no additive effect. CONCLUSIONS In the present study, we found that tetracyclines can be most effective in reducing alveolar bone loss when applied locally. The combined local treatment of alendronate and tetracycline may have a synergistic effect.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Neutrophil activation with concomitant matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) release has been implicated in the development of sepsis-induced acute lung injury. We hypothesized that COL-3, a chemically modified tetracycline known to inhibit MMP-2 and MMP-9, would reduce lung injury and improve survival in rats following cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). METHODS Sprague-Dawley rats were separated into five groups: 1) sham CLP+ carboxymethylcellulose (CMC; vehicle for COL-3, n = 6); 2) sham CLP + COL-3 (n = 6); 3) CLP + CMC (n = 10); 4) CLP + single-dose (SD) COL-3 administered concomitant with CLP (n = 9); and 5) CLP + multiple-dose (MD) COL-3 administered concomitant with CLP and at 24 h after CLP (n = 15). Rats were sacrificed at 168 h (7 days) or immediately after death, with survival defined as hours after CLP. Histological lung assessment was made based on neutrophil infiltration, alveolar wall thickening, and intraalveolar edema fluid. Lung MMP-2 and MMP-9 levels were assessed by immunohistochemistry. MMP-2 and MMP-9 levels were correlated with survival by simple regression analysis. RESULTS The mortality of rats in the cecal ligation and puncture without treatment group (CLP + CMC) was 70% at 168 h. A single dose of COL-3 in the CLP + COL-3 (SD) group significantly reduced mortality to 54%. Furthermore, with a repeat dose of COL-3 at 24 h after CLP, mortality was significantly reduced to 33%. Pathologic lung changes seen histologically in the CLP + CMC group were significantly reduced by COL-3. A significant reduction in lung tissue levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9 was noted in both groups treated with COL-3. Reduction of MMP-2 and MMP-9 levels correlated with improved survival. CONCLUSION Inhibition of MMP-2 and MMP-9 by COL-3 in a clinically relevant model of sepsis-induced acute lung injury reduces pulmonary injury and improves survival in a dose-dependent fashion. Our results suggest that prophylactic treatment with COL-3 in high-risk patients may reduce the morbidity and mortality associated with sepsis-induced acute respiratory distress syndrome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bisphosphonates reduce the bone metastasis formation and angiogenesis but the exact molecular mechanisms involved are unclear. Progelatinase A (proMMP-2; 78 KDa) is activated up during the tumor spread and metastasis by a cell surface-associated matrix metalloproteinase (membrane-type matrix metalloproteinase [MT1-MMP] or MMP-14). MATERIAL AND METHODS We evaluated the effects of a bisphosphonate (clodronate) on MT1-MMP mRNA expression and protein production, catalytic activity and proteolytic activation of proMMP-2 by cultured human MG-63 osteosarcoma cells. RESULTS Clodronate, at therapeutically attainable noncytotoxic concentrations, dose-dependently inhibited phorbol myristic acetate (PMA)-induced proteolytic activation of proMMP-2 by human MG-63 osteosarcoma cells. Clodronate also downregulated the PMA-induced expression of MT1-MMP mRNA and protein production in human MG-63 osteosarcoma cells, as evidenced by Northern analysis and fluorescent immunohistochemistry. Furthermore, clodronate inhibited directly and dose-dependently MT1-MMP activity, and the MT1-MMP inhibition by clodronate was reduced in the presence of an increased (5 mM) Ca(2+) concentrations when compared to physiological (1 mM) Ca(2+) concentrations. CONCLUSION We conclude that (1) the extracellular/cell-associated mechanism of bisphosphonate involves inhibition of MT1-MMP catalytic activity eventually by chelation, and that (2) intracellular mechanism involves downregulation of induced MT1-MMP mRNA and protein expression. The inhibition and downregulation of MT1-MMP by clodronate can be related to their ability to reduce MG-63 osteosarcoma cell invasion and spread. These findings may, at least in part, explain at molecular level the antitumor and antibone resorption activities of clodronate observed in clinical studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Incadronate (YM175, disodium cycloheptylaminomethylenediphosphonate monohydrate), a bisphosphonate, has been suggested to prevent the bone resorption associated with periodontitis by inhibiting osteoclast activity. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of incadronate in preventing periodontal destruction in rats with Porphyromonas gingivalis-induced periodontitis. METHODS Periodontitis was induced in 35 Wister rats by inoculating P. gingivalis into the oral cavity and feeding the rats a soft diet for 4 weeks. Incadronate or placebo was administered to the oral cavity of the rats 2 days per week for 2, 4, or 8 weeks. RESULTS P. gingivalis infection resulted in destruction of the periodontal ligament, reduced bone density, and caused inflammatory cell migration. Radiographic, morphometric, and histological results showed that incadronate had the ability to increase the bone mineral density (quantum level score; cortex 518.9 [placebo 612.8]; sponge 579.8 [placebo 672.0]) and to prevent periodontal ligament destruction (width 0.16 mm [placebo 0.20 mm]; area 0.36 mm2 [placebo 0.54 mm2]) after 8 weeks' administration. Furthermore, the polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN) infiltration in gingival tissue was significantly decreased. CONCLUSION These results showed that incadronate inhibits bone resorption and PMN migration in P. gingivalis-induced periodontitis.

Abstract
Laminin-5 (LN-5) is an important epithelial cell-derived structural and adhesive component in hemidesmosomes and basement membranes (BM). In peri-implant tissue, gingival BM underlies the junctional epithelium (JE) and reflects the peri-implant health. Matrix metalloproteinase-8 (MMP-8 or collagenase-2) is one of the key mediators of periodontal tissue destruction. Western immunoblotting with image analysis was used to quantitate the molecular forms of LN-5 gamma2-chain and MMP-8 in peri-implant sulcular fluid (PISF) from healthy and diseased implants. These observations were related to the recorded gingival (GI) and bone resorption (BR) indices of the studied sites. Altogether, 72 PISF samples from osseointegrated dental implants were examined. Significantly elevated levels of fragmented LN-5 gamma2-chain species (45 and 70 kDa) and MMP-8 immunoreactivities were observed in diseased PISF in relation to healthy PISF. The elevated levels of both LN-5 gamma2-chain 45 and 70 kDa fragments and MMP-8 in diseased PISF from peri-mucositis (BR = 0) and peri-implantitis (BR >/= 1) lesions strongly correlated with elevated GI. Low levels - almost comparable to those seen in healthy control PISF - were seen in PISF from peri-implantitis lesions (BR >/= 1) with no GI. Activation of 75 kDa neutrophil (PMN)-type proMMP-8 to 10 kDa lower-molecular-size active forms was especially detected in PISF from peri-implantitis with elevated GI. These cross-sectional findings indicate that elevated MMP-8 and LN-5 gamma2-chain fragment levels in PISF can reflect the active phase of the inflammatory peri-implant disease. Longitudinal studies are required to assess their use, either alone or in combination as molecular biochemical PISF markers, to predict the risk of progression of peri-implantitis, as well as to monitor the impact of treatment of the disease.

Abstract
Relapse is a major concern in orthodontics for which avoidance retention is the general procedure. However, the effect of retention on relapse after active tooth movement with different force regimes has never been studied in a standardized experimental setting. Mandibular third premolars were extracted in 19 young adult beagle dogs. Three months later, the second premolars were bodily moved distally with forces of 10 cN or 25 cN. The forces were applied for 24 h d-1 or for 16 h d-1. After 4 months, relapse was allowed in half of the animals, while in the others relapse was preceded by retention for 90 d. Statistical analyses were performed on the relation between force regime, active tooth movement, retention, and relapse. Force magnitude had no effect on relapse, while continuous forces resulted in a longer-lasting and more pronounced relapse than did discontinuous forces. A significant positive correlation was found between the amount of active tooth movement and both the rate and the total amount of relapse, but not between the amount of active tooth movement and the duration of the relapse. Retention had no effect on the duration of the relapse, but it strongly decreased its total amount. Finally, the effect of retention on the amount of relapse was strongly correlated with the amount of active tooth movement.

Abstract
AIM To study the presence, levels and molecular forms of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) -8 (collage-nase-2) in pulpal and periapical inflammation, and the changes in MMP-8 levels in root-canal exudates during root-canal treatment. METHODOLOGY Periapical exudate samples were collected from 11 necrotic teeth with radiographically verified periapical periodontitis during three root-canal treatment visits with interappointment calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) medication. MMP-8 levels and molecular forms were analyzed with immunofluorescent assay (IFMA) and Western immunoblot. Inflamed pulp tissue and periapical granuloma tissue (n = 10 for both) were obtained from other patients and used for MMP-8 immunohistochemical (IHC) staining. RESULTS The periapical exudate samples demonstrated marked differences in MMP-8 levels between the teeth in the first visit and significant decrease in MMP-8 levels during the root-canal treatment (P = 0.0107). One specimen failed to show a decrease in MMP-8 below 1000 ng mL(-1) a vertical root fracture was later diagnosed and the tooth extracted. IHC staining showed that in addition to PMN-leucocytes, macrophages and plasma cells produced MMP-8 in pulp and periapical granulomas. CONCLUSIONS The findings demonstrate the presence of MMP-8 in the inflamed pulp and periapical tissue, indicating that MMP-8 has a role in pulpal and periapical inflammation, most likely participating in tissue extracellular matrix degradation. They further indicate that MMP analysis from periapical exudate could be used to indicate and monitor inflammatory activity and the success of treatment in teeth with periapical lesions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chemically modified tetracyclines (CMTs), devoid of antimicrobial activity, inhibit pathologically elevated collagenase activity both in vivo and in vitro. In the current study, doxycycline and 5 different CMTs were tested to prevent matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-dependent periodontal tissue breakdown in an animal model of periodontitis. METHODS Adult male rats received intragingival injections with either 10 microl of physiologic saline or Escherichia coli endotoxin (1 mg/ml) every other day for 6 days and were distributed into 8 treatment groups (12 rats/group): saline (S), endotoxin alone (E), E + CMT-1, E + CMT-3, E + CMT-4, E + CMT-7, E + CMT-8, and doxycycline. All animals were treated daily with 1 ml of 2% carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) alone or containing one of the above-mentioned CMTs (2 mg/day) orally. The gingival tissues were removed, extracted, and assayed for gelatinase (GLSE). Some rat maxillary jaws from each treatment group were fixed in buffered formalin and processed for histology and immunohistochemistry for the cytokines tumor necrosis factor (TNF), interleukin (IL)-1, and IL-6, and MMP-2 and MMP-9. RESULTS Endotoxin injection induced elevated GLSE activity (functional assay and osteoclast-mediated bone resorption), the former identified as predominantly MMP-9 (92 kDa GLSE) by gelatin zymography. All 6 tetracyclines (2 mg/day) inhibited periodontal breakdown in the following order of efficacy: CMT-8 > CMT- 1 > CMT-3 > doxycycline > CMT-4 > CMT-7. Immunohistochemistry was positive for TNF, IL-1, and IL-6 in the inflammatory cells from untreated endotoxin rat tissues, whereas treatment with CMTs decreased the number of immuno-positive stained cells for cytokines and MMPs. The in vivo efficacy of these drugs varied with CMT structure and was significantly correlated with bone resorption: r2 = -0.77, P<0.01; gelatinase inhibitory activity: r2 = -0.84, P <0.01; and serum drug concentrations. CONCLUSION Since both conventional (antimicrobial) and non-antimicrobial tetracyclines inhibited periodontal bone resorption induced by endotoxin injection, MMP-mediated bone loss in this model can be prevented by inhibition of MMPs.

Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) are considered to be key initiators of collagen degradation, thus contributing to bone resorption in inflammatory diseases. We determined whether subantimicrobial doses of doxycycline (DX) (< or =10 mg kg-1 day-1), a known MMP inhibitor, could inhibit bone resorption in an experimental periodontitis model. Thirty male Wistar rats (180-200 g) were subjected to placement of a nylon thread ligature around the maxillary molars and sacrificed after 7 days. Alveolar bone loss (ABL) was measured macroscopically in one hemiarcade and the contralateral hemiarcade was processed for histopathologic analysis. Groups of six animals each were treated with DX (2.5, 5 or 10 mg kg-1 day-1, sc, 7 days) and compared to nontreated (NT) rats. NT rats displayed significant ABL, severe mononuclear cell influx and increase in osteoclast numbers, which were significantly reduced by 5 or 10 mg kg-1 day-1 DX. These data show that DX inhibits inflammatory bone resorption in a manner that is independent of its antimicrobial properties.
