Eldecalcitol effectively prevents alveolar bone loss by partially improving Th17/Treg cell balance in diabetes-associated periodontitis

Abstract: Background: Diabetes-associated periodontitis (DPD) is an inflammatory and destructive disease of periodontal tissues in the diabetic population. The disease is manifested as more severe periodontal destruction and is more difficult to treat when compared with periodontitis (PD). Eldecalcitol (ELD) is a novel active vitamin D3 analog; however, little clinical evidence is available on its role on improving PD and DPD, and its specific mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, we evaluated the preventative effec… Show more

“…Breaking the pro-inflammatory balance between Thl7 and inhibitory Treg cells causes many inflammatory and autoimmune diseases (36). An imbalance between these two cell types can precipitate immune disorders, including ulcerative colitis (UC) (37) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (38). Treg cells are integral in suppressing effector T cells, fostering immune tolerance, and averting autoimmune conditions.…”

“…Conversely, Th17 cells are implicated in various autoimmune diseases. Under normal physiological conditions, these cell types mutually inhibit each other, sustaining a dynamic equilibrium that is vital for immune defense and stability ( 39 ). Th17 cells emerge from DCs within an environment rich in pro-inflammatory cytokines.…”

“…Th17 cells and IL-17 also play a critical role in the microenvironment of bone marrow in MM patients, as they not only stimulate the growth of myeloma cells, but also break the normal bone balance and accelerate bone destruction by stimulating osteoclasts and inhibiting osteoblasts [ 11 , 12 ]. Treg cells have immunosuppressive functions to prevent excessive damage by the immune system [ 13 ]. They can prevent myeloma cells dissemination, inhibit the stimulation and differentiation of osteoclasts by suppressing RANKL and macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF), and enhance the proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts by secreting transforming growth factor (TGF)-β and activating mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK), leading to an increase in bone mass [ 8 , 14 ].…”

“…P. gingivalis infection is not only responsible for oral periodontal diseases but is also linked to various chronic systemic conditions such as cardiovascular disease (17)(18)(19), Alzheimer's disease (20)(21)(22)(23), diabetes, renal disease, gastrointestinal and respiratory system tumours (24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30), and adverse pregnancy outcomes (31)(32)(33)(34)(35)(36)(37), including low birth weight and premature births. The connection between local infection and systemic disease has previously been unclear, and experimental results sometimes conflict with proposed hypotheses.…”
