Effect of morin on alveolar bone resorption in periodontitis mice by regulating the SIRT1/PGC-1α/Nrf2 pathway
To investigate the effect and mechanism of morin on alveolar bone resorption in periodontitis mice based on the silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1)/peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator-1α (PGC-1α)/nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) pathway.
METHODS
2
The mice were randomly divided into control group, model group, morin group (40 mg/kg), SRT1720 (SIRT1 activator) group (5 mg/kg), and morin+EX527 (SIRT1 inhibitor) group (40 mg/kg morin+7.5 mg/kg EX527), with 18 mice in each group. Except for control group, mice in other groups were subjected to silk ligation to establish periodontitis model. After successful modeling, mice in each group were treated with corresponding medicinal solutions or normal saline intragastrically or intraperitoneally, once a day, for two consecutive weeks. After the last medication, serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6 and IL-10 were measured. The distance between the cementoenamel junction and alveolar bone crest was determined, and bone volume fraction and bone mineral density were calculated. Pathological changes of periodontal tissue were observed, and the number of osteoclasts was measured. mRNA expressions of receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL) and osteoprotegerin (OPG) in periodontal tissue, the levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) as well as protein expressions of SIRT1, PGC-1α, and Nrf2 were determined.
RESULTS
2
Compared with model group, the alveolar bone resorption and inflammatory cell infiltration in the periodontal tissues of mice were improved in morin group and SRT1720 group. The serum levels of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6, the distance between cementoenamel junction and alveolar bone crest, the number of osteoclasts in periodontal tissue, RANKL mRNA expression and the MDA level were decreased, shortened and reduced significantly (
P
<0.05); however, serum level of IL-10, bone volume fraction and bone mineral density, OPG mRNA expression in periodontal tissue, SOD level and protein expressions of SIRT1, PGC-1α and Nrf2 were increased significantly (
P
<0.05). Compared with morin group, the above pathological changes were significantly aggravated in the morin+EX527 group; and the levels of quantitative indicators were markedly reversed (
P
<0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
2
Morin may inhibit alveolar bone resorption in periodontitis mice by activating the SIRT1/PGC-1α/Nrf2 pathway to reduce inflammatory reaction and oxidative stress.
