Abstract
A comprehensive understanding of the extracellular matrix (ECM) is essential for developing biomimetic ECM scaffolds for tissue regeneration. As the periodontal ligament cell (PDLC)-derived ECM has shown potential for periodontal tissue regeneration, it is vital to gain a deeper understanding of its comprehensive profile. Although the PDLC-derived ECM exhibits extracellular environment similar to that of periodontal ligament (PDL) tissue, details of its molecular composition are lacking. Thus, using a multiomics approach, we systematically analyzed cultured mouse PDLC-derived ECM and compared it to mouse PDL tissue as a reference. Proteomic analysis revealed that, compared to PDL tissue, the cultured PDLC-derived ECM had a lower proportion of fibrillar collagens with increased levels of glycoprotein, corresponding to an immature ECM status. The gene expression signature was maintained in cultured PDLCs and was similar to that in cells from PDL tissues, with additional characteristics representative of naturally occurring progenitor cells. A combination of proteomic and transcriptomic analyses revealed that the cultured mouse PDLC-derived ECM has multiple advantages in tissue regeneration, providing an extracellular environment that closely mimics the environment in the native PDL tissue. These findings provide valuable insights for understanding PDLC-derived ECM and should contribute to the development of biomimetic ECM scaffolds for reliable periodontal tissue regeneration.

Simvastatin encapsulated in exosomes can enhance its inhibition of relapse after orthodontic tooth movement. Am J Orthod Dentofacial Orthop 2022; 162:881-889. [PMID: 36117030 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajodo.2021.07.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2020] [Revised: 07/01/2021] [Accepted: 07/01/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Relapse after orthodontic treatment is a major clinical issue in the dental field. Studies indicate that simvastatin may, to some extent, decrease the rate and magnitude of relapse status. Recent evidence demonstrated that exosome-based drug delivery has a broad prospect of clinical application. Hence, this study investigates whether simvastatin encapsulated in exosomes can inhibit relapse after orthodontic tooth movement (OTM). METHODS Periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) and their exosomes (PDLSCs-Exo) were isolated and identified. Exosomal simvastatin was obtained by co-incubation of simvastatin and PDLSCs-Exo. An OTM rat model was established. During the relapse period, rats' local alveolar bone was injected with simvastatin, PDLSCs-Exo, and exosomal simvastatin to examine the effect on relapse. Finally, we analyzed the influence of exosomal simvastatin on osteogenesis at the molecular and histologic levels. RESULTS PDLSCs and PDLSCs-Exo were successfully extracted and characterized by multiple means. Simvastatin encapsulated in exosomes can increase the solubility of the drug. Exosomal simvastatin can enhance its inhibition of relapse after OTM in the rat model. The expression level of osteogenic-related genes and proteins in the exosomal simvastatin group is higher than in other groups. Histologic analysis showed a reduction of bone-resorptive lacunae in the exosomal simvastatin group. CONCLUSIONS Encapsulating simvastatin into the exosomes derived from PDLSCs can improve simvastatin solubility and enhance the inhibition effect of relapse in the rat model of OTM. Notably, local injection of PDLSCs-Exo alone can also block the relapse after OTM.

Abstract
The periodontal ligament (PDL) is a specialized connective tissue that provides structural support to the tooth and is crucial for oral functions. The mechanical properties of the PDL are mainly derived from the tissue-specific composition and structural characteristics of the extracellular matrix (ECM). The ECM also plays key roles in determining cell fate in the cellular microenvironment thus crucial in the PDL tissue homeostasis. In the present study, we determined the comprehensive ECM profile of mouse molar PDL using laser microdissection and mass spectrometry-based proteomic analysis with ECM-oriented data curation. Additionally, we evaluated changes in the ECM proteome under mechanical loading using a mouse orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) model and analyzed potential regulatory networks using a bioinformatics approach. Proteomic changes were evaluated in reference to the novel second harmonic generation (SHG)-based fiber characterization. Our ECM-oriented proteomics approach succeeded in illustrating the comprehensive ECM profile of the mouse molar PDL. We revealed the presence of type II collagen in PDL, possibly associated with the load-bearing function upon occlusal force. Mechanical loading induced unique architectural changes in collagen fibers along with dynamic compositional changes in the matrisome profile, particularly involving ECM glycoproteins and matrisome-associated proteins. We identified several unique matrisome proteins which responded to the different modes of mechanical loading in PDL. Notably, the proportion of type VI collagen significantly increased at the mesial side, contributing to collagen fibrogenesis. On the other hand, type XII collagen increased at the PDL-cementum boundary of the distal side. Furthermore, a multifaceted bioinformatics approach illustrated the potential molecular cues, including PDGF signaling, that maintain ECM homeostasis under mechanical loading. Our findings provide fundamental insights into the molecular network underlying ECM homeostasis in PDL, which is vital for clinical diagnosis and development of biomimetic tissue-regeneration strategies.

Organoids from human tooth showing epithelial stemness phenotype and differentiation potential. Cell Mol Life Sci 2022; 79:153.

Abstract
Insight into human tooth epithelial stem cells and their biology is sparse. Tissue-derived organoid models typically replicate the tissue’s epithelial stem cell compartment. Here, we developed a first-in-time epithelial organoid model starting from human tooth. Dental follicle (DF) tissue, isolated from unerupted wisdom teeth, efficiently generated epithelial organoids that were long-term expandable. The organoids displayed a tooth epithelial stemness phenotype similar to the DF’s epithelial cell rests of Malassez (ERM), a compartment containing dental epithelial stem cells. Single-cell transcriptomics reinforced this organoid-ERM congruence, and uncovered novel, mouse-mirroring stem cell features. Exposure of the organoids to epidermal growth factor induced transient proliferation and eventual epithelial-mesenchymal transition, highly mimicking events taking place in the ERM in vivo. Moreover, the ERM stemness organoids were able to unfold an ameloblast differentiation process, further enhanced by transforming growth factor-β (TGFβ) and abrogated by TGFβ receptor inhibition, thereby reproducing TGFβ's known key position in amelogenesis. Interestingly, by creating a mesenchymal-epithelial composite organoid (assembloid) model, we demonstrated that the presence of dental mesenchymal cells (i.e. pulp stem cells) triggered ameloblast differentiation in the epithelial stem cells, thus replicating the known importance of mesenchyme-epithelium interaction in tooth development and amelogenesis. Also here, differentiation was abrogated by TGFβ receptor inhibition. Together, we developed novel organoid models empowering the exploration of human tooth epithelial stem cell biology and function as well as their interplay with dental mesenchyme, all at present only poorly defined in humans. Moreover, the new models may pave the way to future tooth-regenerative perspectives.

Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2022; 9:740712. [PMID: 35155398 PMCID: PMC8829122 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2021.740712] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/13/2021] [Accepted: 12/23/2021] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Extracellular matrix (ECM) plays a pivotal role in many physiological processes. ECM macromolecules and associated factors differ according to tissues, impact cell differentiation, and tissue homeostasis. Dental pulp ECM may differ from other oral tissues and impact mineralization. Thus, the present study aimed to identify the matrisome of ECM proteins derived from human dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) and its ability to regulate mineralization even in cells which do not respond to assaults by mineralization, the human gingival fibroblasts (GF). Methods: ECM were extracted from DPSCs cultured in normal growth medium supplemented with L-ascorbic acid (N-ECM) or in osteogenic induction medium (OM-ECM). ECM decellularization (dECM) was performed using 0.5% triton X-100 in 20 mM ammonium hydroxide after 21 days. Mass spectrometry and proteomic analysis identified and quantified matrisome proteins. Results: The dECM contained ECM proteins but lacked cellular components and mineralization. Interestingly, collagens (COL6A1, COL6A2, and COL6A3) and elastic fibers (FBN1, FBLN2, FN1, and HSPG2) were significantly represented in N-ECM, while annexins (ANXA1, ANXA4, ANXA5, ANXA6, ANXA7, and ANXA11) were significantly overdetected in OM-ECM. GF were reseeded on N-dECM and OM-dECM and cultured in normal or osteogenic medium. GF were able to attach and proliferate on N-dECM and OM-dECM. Both dECM enhanced mineralization of GF at day 14 compared to tissue culture plate (TCP). In addition, OM-dECM promoted higher mineralization of GF than N-dECM although cultured in growth medium. Conclusions: ECM derived from DPSCs proved to be osteoinductive, and this knowledge supported cell-derived ECM can be further utilized for tissue engineering of mineralized tissues.

Abstract
Introduction. In children and growing adolescents, ankylotic resorption
(i.e., progressive replacement resorption) of a permanent tooth is a serious
complication. An ankylosed tooth root is continuously resorbed and replaced
with bone; normal growth of alveolar bone is disturbed and infraposition of
the dental crown progresses. This article aims to present decoronation as a
very good treatment option for permanent incisors diagnosed with progressive
replacement resorption in children and adolescents. Case outline. A
9.5-year-old boy was referred with non-vital both upper central permanent
incisors due to dental trauma. In the left one, which had been re-implanted
90 minutes after avulsion, progression of clinical and radiographic
pathological signs of ankylotic resorption was observed over the months. To
prevent the local arrest of alveolar ridge growth and tilting of adjacent
teeth, we decoronated the ankylosed tooth. For aesthetic and functional
rehabilitation adhesive bonding of his dental crown was performed.
Conclusion. In growing individuals with progressive replacement resorption,
a dentist should be aware of decoronation as an effective treatment option
with a predictable outcome.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease that affects tooth-supporting tissues and even leads to tooth loss. NLRP3 inflammasomes play a critical role in periodontitis pathogenesis. Aberrant activation or overexpression of NLRP3 inflammasomes in cellular players, including osteoclasts, osteoblasts, periodontal ligament fibroblasts, and leukocytes often contributes to cellular dysfunction and environment abnormality, thus resulting in the disorganization of ligament and alveolar bone. In this review, we mainly focus on the negative regulation of NLRP3 inflammasome in periodontitis and highlight the importance of NLRP3 inflammasome as a candidate therapeutic target in periodontitis treatment. Then we elucidate the development status of NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors and show their application potential for treating periodontitis. In summary, this review reveals the recent progress and perspectives of NLRP3 inflammasome and the therapeutic potential of NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors in periodontitis.

Mineral trioxide aggregate immersed in sodium hypochlorite reduce the osteoblastic differentiation of human periodontal ligament stem cells. Sci Rep 2021; 11:22091.

Abstract
White mineral trioxide aggregate (WMTA) is a root canal treatment material, which is known to exhibit a dark brown color when in contact with sodium hypochlorite solution (NaOCl). This study aimed to investigate the effects of NaOCl on the surface properties of WMTA discs and WMTA-induced osteoblastic differentiation of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs). Mixed WMTA (ProRoot MTA) was filled into the molds to form WMTA discs. These discs were immersed in distilled water (D-WMTA) or 5% NaOCl (Na-WMTA). Their surface structures and Ca2+ release level was investigated. Moreover, they were cultured with a clonal human PDLSC line (line 1–17 cells). The main crystal structures of Na-WMTA were identical to the structures of D-WMTA. Globular aggregates with polygonal and needle-like crystals were found on D-WMTA and Na-WMTA, which included Ca, Si, Al, C and O. However, many amorphous structures were also identified on Na-WMTA. These structures consisted of Na and Cl, but did not include Ca. NaOCl immersion also reduced Ca2+ release level from whole WMTA discs. Line 1–17 cells cultured with D-WMTA formed many mineralized nodules and exhibited high expression levels of osteoblast-related genes. However, cells incubated with Na-WMTA generated a small number of nodules and showed low expression levels of osteoblast-related genes. These results indicated that NaOCl reduced Ca2+ release from WMTA by generating amorphous structures and changing its elemental distribution. NaOCl may also partially abolish the ability of WMTA to stimulate osteoblastic differentiation of PDLSCs.

Abstract
Among oral tissues, the periodontium is permanently subjected to mechanical forces resulting from chewing, mastication, or orthodontic appliances. Molecularly, these movements induce a series of subsequent signaling processes, which are embedded in the biological concept of cellular mechanotransduction (MT). Cell and tissue structures, ranging from the extracellular matrix (ECM) to the plasma membrane, the cytosol and the nucleus, are involved in MT. Dysregulation of the diverse, fine-tuned interaction of molecular players responsible for transmitting biophysical environmental information into the cell's inner milieu can lead to and promote serious diseases, such as periodontitis or oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Therefore, periodontal integrity and regeneration is highly dependent on the proper integration and regulation of mechanobiological signals in the context of cell behavior. Recent experimental findings have increased the understanding of classical cellular mechanosensing mechanisms by both integrating exogenic factors such as bacterial gingipain proteases and newly discovered cell-inherent functions of mechanoresponsive co-transcriptional regulators such as the Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) or the nuclear cytoskeleton. Regarding periodontal MT research, this review offers insights into the current trends and open aspects. Concerning oral regenerative medicine or weakening of periodontal tissue diseases, perspectives on future applications of mechanobiological principles are discussed.

Abstract
Periodontal ligament (PDL) is a uniquely differentiated tissue that anchors the tooth to the alveolar bone socket and plays key roles in oral function. PDL cells can respond rapidly to mechanical stimuli, resulting in accelerated tissue remodeling. Cell proliferation is an initial event in tissue remodeling and participates in maintaining the cell supply; therefore, analyzing cell-proliferative activity might provide a comprehensive view of cellular dynamics at the tissue level. In this study, we investigated proliferating cells in mouse molar PDL during orthodontic tooth movement (OTM)-induced tissue remodeling. Our results demonstrated that the mechanical stimuli evoked a dynamic change in the proliferative-cell profile at the entire PDL. Additionally, cell-tracing analysis revealed that the proliferated cells underwent further division and subsequently contributed to tissue remodeling. Moreover, OTM-induced proliferating cells expressed various molecular markers that most likely arise from a wide range of cell types, indicating the lineage plasticity of PDL cells in vivo. Although further studies are required, these findings partially elucidated the global views of the cell trajectory in mouse molar PDL under mechanical-loading conditions, which is vital for understanding the cellular dynamics of the PDL and beneficial for dental treatment in humans.

Abstract
The periodontal ligament (PDL) plays a critical role in providing immediate response to abrupt high loads during mastication while also facilitating slow remodeling of the alveolar bone. The PDL exceptional functionality is permitted by the unique nonuniform structure of the tissue. Two distinct areas that are critical to PDL function were previously identified: the furcation and the dense collar. Despite their hypothesized functions in tooth movement and maintenance, these 2 regions have not yet been compared within the context of their native environment. Therefore, the objective of this study is to elucidate the extracellular matrix (ECM) structure, composition, and biomechanical function of the furcation and the collar regions while maintaining the 3-dimensional (3D) structure in the murine PDL. We identify significant difference between the collar and furcation regions in both structure and mechanical properties. Specifically, we observed unique longitudinal structures in the dense collar that correlate with type VI collagen and LOX, both of which are associated with increased type I collagen density and tissue stiffness and are therefore proposed to function as scaffolds for tooth stabilization. We also found that the collar region is stiffer than the furcation region and therefore suggest that the dense collar acts as a suspense structure of the tooth within the bone during physiological loading. The furcation region of the PDL contained more proteins associated with reduced stiffness and higher tissue remodeling, as well as a dual mechanical behavior, suggesting a critical function in loads transfer and remodeling of the alveolar bone. In summary, this work unravels the nonuniform nature of the PDL within the 3D structural context and establishes understanding of regional PDL function, which opens new avenues for future studies of remodeling, regeneration, and disease.
