Abstract
Background Peri-implantitis (PI) is a prevalent complication of implant treatment. Pyroptosis, a distinctive inflammatory programmed cell death, is crucial to the pathophysiology of PI. Despite its importance, the pyroptosis-related genes (PRGs) influencing PI's progression remain largely unexplored. Methods This study conducted histological staining and transcriptome analyze from three datasets. The intersection of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and PRGs was identified as pyroptosis-related differentially expressed genes (PRDEGs). Functional enrichment analyses were conducted to shed light on potential underlying mechanisms. Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA) and a pyroptotic macrophage model were utilized to identify and validate hub PRDEGs. Immune cell infiltration in PI and its relationship with hub PRDEGs were also examined. Furthermore, consensus clustering was performed to identify new PI subtypes. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) network, competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network, mRNA-mRNA binding protein regulatory (RBP) network, and mRNA-drugs regulatory network of hub PRDEGs were also analyzed. Results Eight hub PRDEGs were identified: PGF, DPEP1, IL36B, IFIH1, TCEA3, RIPK3, NET7, and TLR3, which are instrumental in the PI's progression. Two PI subtypes were distinguished, with Cluster 1 exhibiting higher immune cell activation. The exploration of regulatory networks provided novel mechanisms and therapeutic targets in PI. Conclusion Our research highlights the critical role of pyroptosis and identifies eight hub PRDEGs in PI's progression, offering insights into novel immunotherapy targets and laying the foundation for advanced diagnostic and treatment strategies. This contributes to our understanding of PI and underscores the potential for personalized clinical management.
