Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this study was the pathogenesis elucidation of the mechanism of arteriosclerosis according to another SAA isotype from periodontal disease. As a result of having examined a periodontitis model mouse injected IL-6 to periodontium, quantity of mRNA of SAA1 and SAA2 significantly soared in liver and the lesion. And quantity of mRNA of ICAM-1, VCAM-1, MCP-1, TLR2 developed in the lesion. Furthermore, the aortic lipid deposition was increased. Further, the addition of vascular endothelial cells in SAA1, SAA2, SAA3, when the SAA1 and SAA2, quantity of mRNA of ICAM-1, VCAM-1, MCP-1 and TLR2 was increased significantly.
From the above, possibility of the onset and exacerbation of arteriosclerosis according to another SAA isotype was suggested.
