| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To investigate the roles of PKR and NLRP3 inflammasome on the progress of periodontal diseases, we examine whether PKR affect NLRP3 and bone metabolisms in P. gingivalis-infected osteoblasts.
P. gingivalis increased the expression and phosphorylation of PKR in mouse osteoblasts, MC3T3-E1. P. gingivalis also induced and activated NLRP3, resulting in the increase of caspase-1 cleavage and interleukin (IL)-1b release. PKR was necessary to the up-regulation of NLRP3. Moreover, P. gingivalis affects the expression of several bone-related genes through by PKR-dependent pathway. These results showed that PKR mediates bone metabolisms by affecting NLRP3 and bone-related genes in periodontal diseases.
