摘要: 目的:初步探究表没食子儿茶素没食子酸酯(epigallocatechin gallate,EGCG)和黄芩苷(baicalin)是否有协同治疗小鼠牙周炎的作用及其机制。方法:将 C57/BL6小鼠随机分为空白对照组、牙周炎组、EGCG组、EGCG+黄芩苷组。苏木精-伊红(hematoxylin-eosin,HE)染色观察牙周组织学改变和牙槽骨丧失量(alveolar bone loss,ABL);抗酒石酸酸性磷酸酶(tartrate resistant acid phosphatase,TRAP)染色观察破骨细胞数目;免疫组织化学法观察总巨噬细胞、各亚型巨噬细胞数和哺乳动物雷帕霉素靶向蛋白(mTOR)的表达。结果:丝线结扎联合局部接种牙龈卟啉单胞菌(Porphyromonas gingivalis,P.gingivalis)成功诱导小鼠实验性牙周炎。单独使用EGCG或联合使用黄芩苷减轻牙周组织炎症,减少破骨细胞数量和牙槽骨吸收量,减少牙周组织总巨噬细胞、M1型巨噬细胞数量及M1/M2比例,抑制牙周组织mTOR的表达。且EGCG和黄芩苷联合使用比单独使用EGCG效果好。结论:EGCG和黄芩苷可以协同治疗小鼠牙周炎,可能与下调mTOR信号通路抑制巨噬细胞M1向极化有关。

Abstract: Objective: To explore whether Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG) and baicalin have synergistic effects in the treatment of mice periodontitis and potential mechanisms. Methods: C57/BL6 mice were randomly divided into blank control group, periodontitis group, EGCG group, EGCG+ baicalin group. The changes of periodontal histology and alveolar bone absorption were observed by HE staining. TRAP staining was used to observe the number of osteoclasts. Immunohistochemistry was used to observe the number of macrophages in all subtypes and the expression of mTOR. Results: Experimental periodontitis was successfully induced by ligation of silk thread combined with local inoculation of Porphyromonas gingivalis. The use of EGCG alone or baicalin in combination reduced periodontal inflammation and alveolar bone absorption, reduce the number of osteoclasts, M1 macrophages, and the ratio of M1 and M2, inhibited the expression of mTOR in periodontal tissues, and the combined use of EGCG and baicalin was more effective than the use of EGCG alone. Conclusion: EGCG and baicalin can synergistically treat periodontitis, which may be related to the down-regulation of mTOR signaling pathway and the reduction of macrophage polarization toward M1.
