Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The interleukin (IL)-1 receptor antagonist (Ra) binds to IL-1 receptors and inhibits IL-1 activity. However, it is unclear whether IL-1Ra plays a protective role in periodontal disease. This study was undertaken to compare experimental periodontitis induced by Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans in IL-1Ra knockout (KO) mice vs wild type (WT) mice. Computed tomography (CT) analysis, and hematoxylin eosin (H&E) and tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining were performed.Infected IL-1Ra KO mice exhibited bone loss in furcation areas and alveolar fenestrations. Considering from the all results, IL-1Ra inflammatory bone resorption in experimental periodontitis induced by A. actinomycetemcomitans down-osteoclast differentiation and up-osteoblast differentiation and calcification. In short, these data suggest that an IL-1Ra may serve as a potential therapeutic drug for periodontal disease.
