Association between Postmenopausal Osteoporosis and Experimental Periodontitis

Abstract: To investigate the correlation between postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMO) and the pathogenesis of periodontitis, ovariectomized rats were generated and the experimental periodontitis was induced using a silk ligature. The inflammatory factors and bone metabolic markers were measured in the serum and periodontal tissues of ovariectomized rats using an automatic chemistry analyzer, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays, and immunohistochemistry. The bone mineral density of whole body, pelvis, and spine was analyzed … Show more

“…Ovariectomized rats have higher expression of IL-6, RANKL, osteoprotegerin (OPG), to a lesser extent, and downregulation of IL-10 in the periodontal tissue, suggesting the impact of estrogen hormone on inflammatory bone resorption [55•]. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) in humans improves mandibular bone density and reduces gingival bleeding and the number of teeth lost due to periodontitis [56, 57].…”

“…However, it is difficult to find a strong body of literature in support of the relationship between osteoporosis and periodontal attachment loss or tooth loss. A report from Chinese researchers using an animal model protocol studied the association between postmenopausal osteoporosis and experimental periodontitis . Periodontitis was induced in ovariectomized rats with silk ligatures.…”
