| Research Abstract |
Reactive oxygen species(ROS) contribute to the development of periodontitis. As molecular hydrogen can act as a scavenger of ROS, we examined the effects of treatment with hydrogen-rich water on a rat periodontitis model. A ligature was placed around the maxillary molars for 4 weeks to induce periodontitis, and the animals were given drinking water with or without hydrogen-rich water. The rats with periodontitis which were treated with pure water showed a time-dependent increase in serum reactive oxygen metabolites(ROM) level. Compared to the rats without periodontitis, the periodontitis-induced rats which were given pure water also showed polymorphonuclear leukocyte infiltration and alveolar bone loss at 4 weeks. Hydrogen-rich water intake inhibited an increase in serum ROM level at 4 weeks. Such conditions prevented polymorphonuclear leukocyte infiltration and osteoclast differentiation following periodontitis progression. Furthermore, inflammatory signaling pathways, such as mitogen-activated protein kinases, were less activated in periodontal lesions from hydrogen-rich water-treated rats as compared with pure water-treated rats. Consuming hydrogen-rich water might be beneficial in suppressing periodontitis progression by decreasing ROS.
