Indigenous Microbiota Protects against Inflammation-Induced Osteonecrosis

Abstract: Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a rare intraoral lesion that occurs in patients undergoing long-term and/or high-dose therapy with nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates, a RANKL inhibitor, antiangiogenic agents, or mTOR inhibitors. The presence of pathogenic bacteria is highly associated with advanced stages of MRONJ lesions; however, the exact role of indigenous microbes in MRONJ development is unknown. Here, we report that the normal oral flora in mice protects against inflammation-induc… Show more

“…In a previous report, it was demonstrated that BPs exerted inhibitory effects on the growth of select bacterial species ( 24 ). Recently, Williams et al demonstrated increased local bacterial infiltration in MRONJ mice ( 25 ). Moreover, after extracting healthy teeth from mice, and following with zoledronate infusions, no differences were observed in the formation of osteonecrosis between mice receiving broad-spectrum antibiotic treatment and negative controls.…”

“…Interestingly, antibiotic-mediated oral dysbiosis causes increased bone necrosis when extracting teeth with ligature-induced periodontitis. Moreover, they showed that broad-spectrum antibiotic treatment suppressed the normal flora to protect against inflammation-induced osteonecrosis by dampening the formation of osteonecrosis and by activating osteoclasts ( 25 ). The results showed that the imbalance in oral flora may be a prerequisite for MRONJ and biological barriers are of great necessity to prevent the occurrence of MRONJ ( Figure 1 ).…”
