Abstract

Aim: We aimed to investigate whether α-ketoglutarate (AKG) can promote autophagic activity under a peri-implant condition to enhance the osseointegration of dental implant in rats with osteoporosis (OP).

Methods: Con, Model and AKG groups were established for the random allocation of thirty rats (n = 10). Their bone metabolism indicators were measured. The peri-implant bone morphology was detected by toluidine blue staining, the peri-implant bone tissue healing was detected, and the implant torque was measured.

Results: In comparison to the Con group, the bone metabolism indicators [bone volume/tissue volume ratio (BV/TV), trabecular number (Tb.N), and osseointegration index (OI)], bone-implant contact (BIC) rate, bone mass in the cancellous area, dislocation torque, protein and mRNA expressions of bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2), RUNX2 and Beclin1, and LC3II/LC3I ratio in bone tissues decreased significantly in the Model group, with a significant enlargement of trabecular space (Tb.Sp) (p < 0.05). In comparison with the Model group, the AKG group had significant increases in Tb.N, BV/TV, OI, BIC rate, bone mass in the cancellous area, dislocation torque, mRNA plus protein expressions of BMP-2, Runt-related transcription factor 2 and Beclin1, and LC3II/light chain 3I ratio in bone tissues, in addition to a significant reduction of Tb.Sp (p < 0.05).

Conclusions: AKG may relieve the bone metabolism disorders and enhance the osteogenic differentiation and osseointegration of implants in OP rats by promoting peri-implant autophagy.

期刊介绍： The aim of Connective Tissue Research is to present original and significant research in all basic areas of connective tissue and matrix biology. The journal also provides topical reviews and, on occasion, the proceedings of conferences in areas of special interest at which original work is presented. The journal supports an interdisciplinary approach; we present a variety of perspectives from different disciplines, including Biochemistry Cell and Molecular Biology Immunology Structural Biology Biophysics Biomechanics Regenerative Medicine The interests of the Editorial Board are to understand, mechanistically, the structure-function relationships in connective tissue extracellular matrix, and its associated cells, through interpretation of sophisticated experimentation using state-of-the-art technologies that include molecular genetics, imaging, immunology, biomechanics and tissue engineering.
