Outline of Final Research Achievements |
TInterleukin (IL)-1 is an inflammatory cytokine associated with periodontal break down and alveolar bone resorption, therefore the regulation of IL-1is important to inhibit onset/progression of periodontal disease. IL-1 secretion induced with periodontal pathogens (Porphyromonas gingivalis, Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, Fusobacterium nucleatum) is inhibited by the pretreatment with both Ac-YVAD-CMK and glyburide, indicating that IL-1 activation is dependent on both caspase-1 and NLRP3. These results indicate that the possibility of novel periodontal treatment that is targeted for caspase-1 and NLRP3.
