Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Diabetes is known to increase the possibility of becoming nephropathy when it comes to periodontitis, but the mechanism is not known. In an experiment using diabetic mice, we found that blood vessels of a urine generating device, called glomeruli of the kidney, express 'toll-like receptors' that recognize bacterial components when it comes to diabetes. We also found that injection of periodontal disease pathogen into mucosa of diabetic mouse oral cavity causes nephropathy. It is thought that germs of periodontal disease enter the blood vessels of the oral cavity, go around the body, enter the kidney and bind to the receptor and cause nephropathy. In periodontitis, bacteria easily enter the blood vessel with tooth brushing. For people with diabetes, prevention of periodontitis is considered to prevent the diabetic nephropathy.
