| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The effects of hypoxia and hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) on inflammation and immune response to examine hypoxic functions in periodontal pocket was investigated in this study. Hypoxia increases the expression of inflammatory cytokines and angiogenetic factor, however decreases calprotectin, an antibacterial peptide, in oral keratinocytes and gingival fibroblasts. Chetomin, an inhibitor of HIF function, inhibited hypoxia-induced up-regulation of TNF-a and VEGF, and suppressed down-regulation of calprotectin. These results suggest that hypoxia in periodontal pocket enhances inflammation of periodontal tissues and inhibition of HIF induces improvement of inflammatory responses.
