Effects of testosterone and high‐dose anabolic steroids on orthodontic‐induced bone remodeling and root resorption: An animal study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study investigates the impact of disruptions in testosterone levels on bone remodeling, root resorption, and periodontal ligament (PDL) during orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) in a pubertal male rat model. Methods Testosterone deficiency was induced through orchiectomy, and the anabolic‐androgenic steroid (AAS, testosterone ...

Alterations in brain metabolites in rats with experimental periodontitis: A metabolomic approach

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Periodontitis (PD) is a chronic inflammatory disease with systemic effects. Emerging evidence suggests a link between periodontal inflammation and neurological changes, but the biochemical mechanisms in key brain regions, such as the hippocampus and amygdala, remain unclear.

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

Immunomodulators, associated or not with systemic antibiotics, to treat periodontitis: A 1‐year multicenter, placebo‐controlled, double‐blind, randomized clinical trial

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Immunomodulatory agents such as omega‐3 (ω‐3) and low‐dose aspirin (ASA) have been proposed as effective adjuncts in the treatment of periodontitis. However, they still lack long‐term studies and head‐to‐head evaluation with metronidazole (MTZ) and amoxicillin (AMX), the adjunct protocol with the strongest scientific evidence of ...

RANKL blockade improves efficacy of PD1-PD-L1 blockade or dual PD1-PD-L1 and CTLA4 blockade in mouse models of cancer

OncoImmunology, 2018
Receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL) and its receptor RANK, are members of the tumor necrosis factor and receptor superfamilies, respectively. Antibodies targeting RANKL have recently been evaluated in combination with anti-CTLA4 in case reports of

Evaluation of Osteoprotegerin (OPG) and Receptor Activator of Nuclear Factor Kappa-B Ligand (RANKL) Biomarker Concentrations in the Saliva of Patients with Periodontitis and Depression. [PDF]

Clin Exp Dent Res
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting tooth‐supporting structures, while depression is a common mental disorder with emotional and behavioral disturbances. Previous studies suggest a potential association between the two conditions.

Estradiol replacement attenuates alendronate‐associated adverse effects on alveolar bone repair in ovariectomized rats

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Sodium alendronate (ALN) is widely used to treat postmenopausal osteoporosis, but both estrogen deficiency and antiresorptive therapy may impair alveolar bone repair after tooth extraction. A clinically relevant but insufficiently explored scenario involves estrogen‐deficient individuals receiving hormone replacement therapy (HRT ...

Periodontitis during pregnancy: The effect on the gut microbiome and intestinal inflammation

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Periodontitis has been epidemiologically associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes, but causality remains difficult to establish in humans due to confounding factors. This study uses a controlled murine model to examine the effects of experimentally induced periodontitis on the composition of the gut microbiota and gastrointestinal
