The primary cause of periodontitis is poor or ineffective oral hygiene, which leads to the accumulation of bacterial matrix, called dental plaque. Subgingival micro-organisms would deposit endotoxin and cause further inflammation in the gum tissues and progressive bone loss. During the inflammation process, a lot of cytokines will increases in expression. One of them is Interleukin-1β (IL-1β). IL-1βhas the ability to induce Chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 20 (CCL20), and CCL20 can attract T helper cell to the inflamed gingival tissue, causing IL-17 to increase. Il-17 can promote osteoclast activity and subsequently escalate bone resorption. The overall mechanism involved in the induction of CCL20 by IL-1β is still unknown and it is the aim of our study to further investigate this signaling pathway. Previous studies had shown that IL-1βinduce CCL20 in Human gingival fibroblast (HGF) via a NF-κB dependent pathway. We discovered the NOX4 inhibitor, Plumbagin and ROS inhibitor, NAC can inhibit the above mentioned pathway. And IL-1β can induce NOX4 and ROS in HGF as well. This proved that the signaling pathway of CCL20 induction by IL-1βis NOX4 dependent. Furthermore, we also discovered that Curcumin has the ability to inhibit IL-1β from inducing NOX4 and CCL20 in HGF. This finding may be useful in developing future adjunctive therapy in treating periodontal disease.991569 bytesapplication/pdf論文公開時間: 2017/8/26論文使用權限: 同意有償授權(權利金給回饋學校)牙周病人類牙齦纖維母細胞IL-1βCCL20過氧化物NOX4薑黃素PeriodontitisHuman gingival fibroblastROSCurcumin[SDGs]SDG3thesis10.6342/NTU201600684http://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/277115/1/ntu-105-R02422005-1.pdf
