Abstrakt: Aims: This study aimed to investigate the protective effects of aspirin (ASA) on alveolar bone loss in a mouse model with metabolic syndrome (MetS) and concurrent periodontal disease (PD). Specifically, the study sought to determine whether ASA could mitigate bone loss in MetS and non-MetS animals with PD and explore the correlation between gingival nitric oxide (NO) levels and bone resorption.
Main Methods: Newborn female Swiss mice were administered monosodium glutamate (MSG) (4 mg/g) during the initial 5 days of life to induce MetS (MetS group), while the control group (SAL) was administered saline. On the 60th day, PD was induced in both groups. Half of the animals were treated daily with ASA (40 mg/kg). MetS was characterized by the Lee index, blood glucose, and cardiovascular parameters. Maxillae were evaluated by microtomography and histopathology, showing significant bone loss after PD induction.
Key Findings: Animals with MetS exhibited higher alveolar bone loss than controls. SAL animals treated with ASA had less bone loss than their MetS counterparts. Gingival NO levels were elevated in animals with PD, and a strong correlation was found between NO levels and bone resorption. ASA reduced NO in non-MetS animals, but MetS animals were resistant to this effect.
Significance: These findings suggest a protective mechanism of ASA against bone loss in non-MetS animals with PD, an effect that was not observed in MetS animals. Consequently, this study provides novel insights into the intricate relationship between MetS and PD in mice.
