This population-based cross-sectional study included a representative sample of 15-19-year-old students attending high schools in Santa Maria, southern Brazil. Data on sociodemographic and behavioral variables were collected through questionnaires. Contextual data on bullying at school was provided by educational institutions (bullying episodes in the previous year: 'no,' 'sometimes,' or 'often'). Tooth loss was clinically assessed by the M component of the DMFT index, modeled as a discrete variable. Multilevel Poisson regression was used, and rate ratios (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were estimated. The prevalence of tooth loss was 9.2% (95%CI = 7.5-10.8). Adolescents who attended the schools where bullying events often occurred had 0.39 (95%CI = 0.33-0.45) missing teeth, on average, in contrast to an average of 0.14 (95%CI = 0.08-0.19) among those whose schools did not experience bullying in the previous year. After adjusting for important cofactors, the contextual variable of bullying at school remained significantly associated with the study outcome. Adolescents who attended schools where bullying frequently occurred were 2.49-fold more likely to have an additional missing tooth than those whose school did not experience bullying in the previous year (RR = 2.49, 95%CI = 1.37-4.51, p = 0.003).

Previously, we showed that Protease-activated receptor-1 (PAR1) can regulate PDLSCs. Herein, we evaluate whether PAR1 influences osteogenesis in CSs produced from PDLSCs, without the use of scaffolds. PDLSCs were isolated and immunophenotyped. Then, CSs were obtained by supplementing the culture medium with ascorbic acid (50 µg/mL), and PAR1 was activated through its agonist peptide (100 nM). Scaffold-free 3D CSs were successfully produced from PDLSCs, and they showed higher proliferation potential than isolated PDLSCs. Also, PAR1 activation decreased senescence and improved osteogenic differentiation of CSs by increasing mineralized nodule deposition and alkaline phosphatase concentration; PAR1 also modulated osteogenic markers at the gene and protein levels. We further demonstrated that this effect was regulated by Wnt, TGF-βI, MEK, p38 MAPK, and FGF/VEGF signaling pathways in PDLSCs (p < 0.05%). Overall, PAR1 activation increased osteogenic activity in CSs, emerging as a promising scaffold-free therapeutic approach for periodontal regeneration.</p>","PeriodicalId":9240,"journal":{"name":"Brazilian oral research","volume":"38 ","pages":"e079"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11376637/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142280410","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Disc-shaped 3Y-TZP zirconia specimens (Zpex, Tosoh) were sintered at 1550°C for 2 hours.
