| Research Abstract |
Periapical bone resorption occurs following infection of the dental pulp. Bone destruction has been linked to excessive expression of inflammatory cytokines, particularly interleukin (IL)-1. IL-10 is an anti-inflammatory cytokine, produced by various immune cells including macrophages and T2 cells, that we previously found was a key endogeneous inhibitor of infection-stimulated peripheral bone resorption in vivo, likely acting via IL-1 inhibition. More recently, we have shown that IL-10^<-/-> mice are also extremely susceptible Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg)-stimulated periodontal bone loss, without an increase in gingival IL-1 levels. In contrast, no significant bone loss is induced by the Pg infection in corresponding wild-type (WT) mice. In the present study, we will employ the IL-10^<+/+> mice model, a ‘reverse‘ model of IL-10^<-/-> mice, to test the hypothesis that induction and progression of apical periodontitis can be ameliorated by modulating IL-10, IL-10 receptors their signaling, and cytokine network that IL-10 regulates. The dental pulps of the first molars were exposed and infected with a mixture of four common endodontic pathogens, and bone destruction was determined by micro-computed tomography at sacrifice on day 21. The results demonstrate that IL-10^<+/+> mice model had no significantly greater infection-stimulated bone resorption in vivo compared with wild-type mice, although IL-10 in alveolar bone of them was over-expressed compared with that of wild-type mice.
