Nicotine increases the collagen‐degrading ability of human gingival fibroblasts

Abstract: Nicotine increased human gingival fibroblast-mediated collagen degradation, in part through the activation of membrane-associated MMPs. Nicotine and P. gingivalis had an additive effect on human gingival fibroblast-mediated collagen degradation.

“…Specific inhibitors of gelatinases (MMP-2 and MMP-9), stromelysins (MMP-3), had only a mild effect on sEndoglin release, whereas a collagenase inhibitor (MMP-13) did not affect sEndoglin levels at all. This indicated that these classes of MMPs were probably not involved in the shedding process and suggested membrane-type MMPs to be the primary endoglin shedding candidates because they are inhibited by these broad-spectrum inhibitors (29).…”

“…The direction of collagen fibers may have an affect on periodontal tissue resistance due to affecting the adhesiveness to root surface (22,34). Zhou et al (42) reported nicotine and P. gingivalis had an additive effect on human gingival fibroblast-mediated collagen degradation and these findings help to explain why smoking is a major factor contributing to the initiation and/or exacerbation of periodontal diseases. In the current study, before being incubated in the culture of the smoking patient, EMD granules were seen in their globular structure but the rareness of the web structure and the globules were less than in the non-smoking patient, and the collagen fibers gave a tight packaged thick fiber view.…”
