概括
由口腔细菌引起的孕产妇牙周炎可能会损害胎儿的发育. 感染细胞的细胞外囊泡进入胎盘,损害胎儿的生长和胎盘血管的形成.
科学领域:
- 口腔微生物学和免疫学
- 生殖生物学和发育毒理学.
- 细胞和分子生物学是细胞和分子生物学.
背景情况:
- 牙周炎是一种与全身疾病相关的慢性炎症性疾病.
- 孕妇牙周炎与不良妊娠结果有关,但机制尚不清楚.
- 细胞外囊泡 (EVs) 调解细胞间的通信,并与疾病有关.
研究的目的:
- 为了调查EVs是否来自P. 牙感染的巨细胞 (Pg-inf EVs) 影响胎儿-胎盘单元和胎儿发育.
- 阐明Pg-inf EVs对怀孕的影响的分子机制.
主要方法:
- 在体内小鼠模型追踪Pg-inf EV转位和对胎儿发育的影响.
- 胎盘血管和血管生成的组织学分析.
- 对胎盘组织的蛋白质组分析和对人类血管内皮细胞的体外研究.
主要成果:
- Pg-inf EVs 到达胎儿胎盘单元,导致胎儿生长 (大小和体重) 受到损害.
- 胎盘显示血管对齐受损并降低了血管生成.
- Pg-inf EVs在胎盘组织和内皮细胞中降低了Vegfr1的表达,这表明它在血管生成受损中发挥了作用.
结论:
- 这项研究揭示了一条新的途径,即牙周炎影响的巨细胞的EVs会影响怀孕.
- Pg-inf EVs通过降低VEGFR1.1的调节来破坏胎盘功能和胎儿发育.
- 这些发现突出了母亲口腔健康和胎儿健康之间的潜在联系,通过EV介导的沟通.

The Oral Microbiota
The oral microbiome includes a complex ecosystem comprising over 700 microbial species, identified through genomic sequencing and culture-based analyses to date. This community includes a core microbiome, found universally among individuals, and a variable component influenced by environmental factors such as diet, lifestyle, and host genetics. Site-specific conditions, including oxygen gradients, pH levels, and nutrient availability, determine the spatial distribution of these microorganisms...
Development of the Oral Microbiota
The establishment of the oral microbiome begins before birth, challenging the long-held belief that the fetal oral cavity is sterile. The presence of oral microbes such as Streptococcus and Fusobacterium in amniotic fluid suggests that microbial exposure may occur in utero, potentially through translocation from the maternal oral or gastrointestinal tract. This early colonization primes the neonatal immune system and sets the stage for subsequent microbial succession. Maternal health,...
