摘要:

文题释义:
正畸牙移动:是一个与牙周组织对外界施加机械力的持续生理反应和适应有关的过程。
Hippo-Yes相关蛋白通路:是一种控制器官大小和组织稳态的进化保守的通路。对机械刺激敏感,在机械转导过程中有重要作用。

背景:自噬参与牙周膜细胞对正畸力的应变,但机械刺激如何诱导自噬尚不明确。Hippo-Yes相关蛋白(YAP)通路对机械刺激敏感,参与自噬的调控。
目的:观察正畸牙压力侧牙周膜细胞Hippo-YAP通路和自噬相关因子的表达变化,探究Hippo-YAP通路是否参与牙周膜细胞对机械刺激的应变,以及它与自噬之间的关系。
方法:54只C57BL/6小鼠随机分为空白组和8个实验组(分别加力30 min,1 h,2 h,4 h,12 h,1 d,3 d,7 d),实验组小鼠牙移动建模,建模后按设定时间,取小鼠右上第一磨牙行苏木精-伊红染色观察压力侧牙周膜组织形态改变,抗酒石酸酸性磷酸酶染色计数破骨细胞,免疫组织化学染色检测active-YAP以及Beclin-1、LC3B的表达。
结果与结论:①随正畸力施加,苏木精-伊红染色可见压力侧牙周膜先被压缩,后稍恢复;②加力12 h后破骨细胞开始增多(P < 0.01),而后随加力时间延长,破骨细胞数量逐渐增加,至加力7 d时破骨细胞数量最多(P < 0.01);③实验组压力侧牙周膜细胞自噬相关因子Beclin-1、LC3B的表达与active-YAP的表达在牙移动期间都存在相关性,对比发现它们的变化趋势相似;相关性分析可见Beclin-1、LC3B的表达都与active-YAP的表达呈高度正相关(P < 0.01);④提示Hippo-YAP通路参与压力侧牙周膜细胞对机械刺激的应变,它可能是自噬的上游调控,但还有待进一步实验研究。

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Autophagy is involved in the response of periodontal ligament cells to orthodontic forces, but how mechanical stimulation induces autophagy remains unclear. The Hippo-Yes-associated protein (YAP) pathway is sensitive to mechanical stimulation and is involved in the regulation of autophagy. 
OBJECTIVE: To observe changes of the Hippo-YAP pathway and autophagy-related factors in the pressure side of orthodontic teeth and to explore whether the Hippo-YAP pathway is involved in the response of periodontal ligament cells to mechanical stimulation and its relationship with autophagy.
METHODS: Fifty-four C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into a blank group and eight experimental groups (orthodontic force applied for 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, 12 hours, 1 day, 3 days, 7 days). Mice in the experimental groups were modeled and killed at the set time after modeling to take their upper right first molars. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to observe the periodontal ligament tissue morphology on the pressure side. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining was used to count osteoclasts. Expressions of Beclin-1, LC3B, and active-YAP were detected by immunohistochemical staining.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Hematoxylin-eosin staining showed that with the application of orthodontic force, the periodontal ligament on the pressure side was first compressed and then slightly restored. Osteoclasts began to increase in number after 12 hours of orthodontic force applied (P < 0.01), and then the number of cells gradually increased and peaked at 7 days (P < 0.01). In the experimental groups, the expression of Beclin-1 and LC3B in periodontal ligament cells on the pressure side was correlated with the active-YAP expression during tooth movement and they showed similar trends. Correlation analysis showed that Beclin-1 and LC3B were both highly correlated with active-YAP (P < 0.01). These findings indicate that the Hippo-YAP pathway is involved in the response of periodontal ligament cells to mechanical stimulation on the pressure side, which may be an upstream regulation of autophagy. However, further experimental investigations are required.
