Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of polyphosphate [poly(P)], a drug candidate for the treatment of peri-implantitis, on inflammatory bone resorption-related signal transduction. Poly(P) decreased the initial phosphorylation of STAT1 via suppressing IRF3 phosphorylation in macrophages activated with lipopolysaccharide, a cell wall component of Gram-negative bacteria. In addition, poly(P) was suggested to suppress the delayed phosphorylation of STAT1 in an IRF3-independent manner. These findings provide useful information for the development of novel treatment strategies for peri-implantitis.
