Induction of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 by Porphyromonas gingivalis in human endothelial cells

Abstract: The association between periodontal and cardiovascular diseases could be mediated by direct interaction of periodontal pathogens with cardiac tissue. In order to explore this possibility, the effect of the periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis on monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) production by endothelial cells was investigated. When incubated with live P. gingivalis 381, MCP-1 production by human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) was potently increased. Compared to the type strain 381,… Show more

“…Since the bacterial adhesion was not diminished by heat treatment, they suggested that P. gingivalis adhesion to epithelial cells was essential for cytokine responses. Other reports showed that infection with viable P. gingivalis induces MCP-1 expression in human epithelial cells (20,34). In these studies, heat-inactivated bacteria did not induce MCP-1 response, suggesting that invasion of viable P. gingivalis is necessary for chemokine production by epithelial cells.…”

“…Recent studies have found that infection with P. gingivalis induces IL-8 and MCP-1 responses in human endothelial cells at the mRNA level (4,20,34). At the same time, these reports also suggested that a high level of P. gingivalis To determine the numbers of adherent and invaded bacteria, the cultures were incubated for 1 h. Unattached bacteria were washed off with PBS, and the osteoblasts were disrupted by extensive pipetting with sterile water and then plated on blood agar plates.…”

“…A recent study reported similarities in the spectrum of bacteria in the oral cavity and in coronary plaques, and both diseases are characterized by an imbalanced immune reaction and a chronic inflammatory process [13], while significant similarities also exist in the pathogenetic processes of CVD and periodontitis, including monocyte hyperresponsiveness [38], elevations in systemic levels of C-reactive protein [34], serum amyloid A (SAA) [39], and fibrinogen [40].…”
