摘要
高胆固醇血症对根尖牙周炎(AP)发病的影响尚无定论。最近的研究发现,胆固醇代谢产物 27-羟基胆固醇(27HC)可影响细胞对细菌感染的反应,而雌激素状态和雷洛昔芬可能会影响其作用。在此,我们旨在研究 27HC 对巨噬细胞产生炎症介质的影响以及雷洛昔芬的调节功能。我们在大鼠模型中评估了 27HC 对 AP 发展的贡献以及雷洛昔芬的治疗效果。
27-Hydroxycholesterol contributes to hypercholesterolemia-associated aggravation of apical periodontitis in ovariectomized rats and raloxifene counteracts its action
Aim
The influence of hypercholesterolemia on the development of apical periodontitis (AP) is inconclusive. Recent studies revealed that cholesterol metabolite 27-hydoxycholesterol (27HC) can affect cellular responses to bacterial infections and oestrogen status and raloxifene may influence its action. Herein, we aimed to examine the impact of 27HC on production of inflammatory mediators by macrophages and the regulatory function of raloxifene. The contribution of 27HC to AP development and the therapeutic effect of raloxifene were evaluated in a rat model.
Methods
Murine macrophages J774 cells were used. The expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) was examined by Western blot. The concentrations of C-C motif chemokine ligand (CCL) 2 and 27HC were assessed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Colorimetric assay was used to evaluate cholesterol levels. Experimental AP was induced in ovariectomized (OVX) or un-operated rats receiving high-fat/high-cholesterol diet (HFHCD) or normal diet (ND). Micro-computed tomography and immunohistochemistry were employed to evaluate disease severity and the therapeutic effect of raloxifene.
Results
Cholesterol enhanced 27HC production in macrophages. 27HC induced iNOS and CCL2 synthesis by macrophages and estradiol suppressed the responses. In our animal model of AP, HFHCD plus OVX significantly augmented serum and lesion tissue levels of 27HC (p < .05 versus the ND group). Lesion size, infiltration of CD68+ cells, and iNOS+ monocytes were increased in parallel with 27HC accumulation. Raloxifene inhibited pro-inflammatory effects of 27HC on macrophages and suppressed AP progression in HFHCD/OVX rats (p < .05 versus the vehicle control group).
Conclusions
Our results suggested that 27HC contributes to AP aggravation associated with hypercholesterolemia. Oestrogen deficiency may both enhance 27HC production and exacerbate its downstream action.
期刊介绍:
The International Endodontic Journal is published monthly and strives to publish original articles of the highest quality to disseminate scientific and clinical knowledge; all manuscripts are subjected to peer review. Original scientific articles are published in the areas of biomedical science, applied materials science, bioengineering, epidemiology and social science relevant to endodontic disease and its management, and to the restoration of root-treated teeth. In addition, review articles, reports of clinical cases, book reviews, summaries and abstracts of scientific meetings and news items are accepted.
The International Endodontic Journal is essential reading for general dental practitioners, specialist endodontists, research, scientists and dental teachers.
