Effect of avocado/soybean unsaponifiables on periodontal repair in rats with arthritis and induced periodontitis

J. appl. oral sci; 27 (), 2019
Abstract Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of avocado/soybean unsaponifiables (ASU) on periodontal repair in rats with induced periodontitis and arthritis. Methodology: Forty-five rats were submitted to periodontitis induction by insertion of ligatures into the upper second molars, mai...

Efeito do fotossensibilizador butyl azul de toluidina na terapia fotodinâmica antimicrobiana para o tratamento da periodontite experimental em ratos

O presente estudo avaliou pela primeira vez “in vivo” os efeitos de três concentrações do butyl azul de toluidina (BuTB) como agente fotossensibilizador na terapia fotodinâmica antimicrobiana (aPDT), como terapia coadjuvante a raspagem e alisamento radicular (RAR), para o tratamento de periodonti...

Effects of 1, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 on experimental periodontitis and AhR/NF-κB/NLRP3 inflammasome pathway in a mouse model

J. appl. oral sci; 27 (), 2019
Abstract Vitamin D has been known to have important regulatory functions in inflammation and immune response and shows inhibitory effects on experimental periodontitis in animal models. However, the potential mechanism has yet to be clarified. Recent studies have highlighted Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (Ah...

Effects of astragaloside IV on inflammation and immunity in rats with experimental periodontitis

Abstract: This study aimed to investigate the effects of astragaloside IV (AsIV) on inflammation and immunity in rats with experimental periodontitis. Periodontitis was established in 48 Wistar rats, which were then randomly divided into model and 10, 20 and 40 mg/kg AsIV groups, with 12 rats in each gro...

The effect of colchicine on alveolar bone loss in ligature-induced periodontitis

Abstract Colchicine is widely used in the treatment of several inflammatory diseases due to its anti-inflammatory effect, but effects on bone metabolism are unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of systemically-administered colchicine on healthy periodontium and experimentally-induce...

Gliclazide reduced oxidative stress, inflammation, and bone loss in an experimental periodontal disease model

J. appl. oral sci; 27 (), 2019
Abstract Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of gliclazide on oxidative stress, inflammation, and bone loss in an experimental periodontal disease model. Material and Methods Male albino Wistar rats were divided into no ligature, ligature, and ligature with 1, 5, and 10 mg/kg ...

Oxymatrine alleviates periodontitis in rats by inhibiting inflammatory factor secretion and regulating MMPs/TIMP protein expression

Acta cir. bras; 33 (11), 2018
Abstract Purpose: To investigate the effect of oxymatrine on periodontitis in rats and related mechanism. Methods: Ninety SD rats were divided into control, model, 10, 20 and 40 mg/kg oxymatrine and tinidazole groups. The periodontitis model was established in later 5 groups. The 10, 20 and 40 mg/kg oxy...

Células mononucleares autólogas en la reparación de defectos óseos provocados por la periodontitis crónica
Autologous mononuclear cells in the repair of bone defects caused by chronic periodontitis

Introducción: la periodontitis crónica es un proceso inflamatorio de origen bacteriano que afecta a los tejidos del periodonto y provoca la destrucción de los tejidos de soporte del diente. La terapia celular con células mononucleares autólogas constituye una nueva opción terapéutica para lograr l...

Cytidine-phosphate-guanosine oligodeoxynucleotides in combination with CD40 ligand decrease periodontal inflammation and alveolar bone loss in a TLR9-independent manner

J. appl. oral sci; 26 (), 2018
Abstract Local administration of toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9), agonist cytidine-phosphate-guanosine oligodeoxynucleotide (CpG ODNs), and CD40 ligand (CD40L) can decrease ligature-induced periodontal inflammation and bone loss in wild type (WT) mouse. Objective: This study aimed to explore whether such ef...
