Backgrounds: Periodontitis is an oral-bacteria-directed disease that occurs worldwide. Currently, periodontal pathogens are mostly determined using traditional culture techniques, next-generation sequencing, and microbiological screening system. In addition to the well-known and cultivatable periodontal bacteria, we aimed to discover a novel periodontal pathogen by using DNA sequencing and investigate its role in the progression of periodontitis. Objective: This study identified pathogens from subgingival dental plaque in patients with periodontitis by using the Oxford Nanopore Technology (ONT) third-generation sequencing system and validated the impact of selected pathogen in periodontitis progression by ligature-implanted mice. Methods: Twenty-five patients with periodontitis and 25 healthy controls were recruited in this study. Subgingival plaque samples were collected for metagenomic analysis. The ONT third-generation sequencing system was used to confirm the dominant bacteria. A mouse model with ligature implantation and bacterial injection verified the pathogenesis of periodontitis. Neutrophil infiltration and osteoclast activity were evaluated using immunohistochemistry and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase assays in periodontal tissue. Gingival inflammation was evaluated using pro-inflammatory cytokines in gingival crevicular fluids. Alveolar bone destruction in the mice was evaluated using micro-computed tomography and hematoxylin and eosin staining. Results: Scardovia wiggsiae (S. wiggsiae) was dominant in the subgingival plaque of the patients with periodontitis. S. wiggsiae significantly deteriorated ligature-induced neutrophil infiltration, osteoclast activation, alveolar bone destruction, and the secretion of interleukin-6, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, and tumor necrosis factor-α in the mouse model. Conclusion: Our metagenome results suggested that S. wiggsiae is a dominant flora in patients with periodontitis. In mice, the induction of neutrophil infiltration, proinflammatory cytokine secretion, osteoclast activation, and alveolar bone destruction further verified the pathogenic role of S. wiggsiae in the progress of periodontitis. Future studies investigating the metabolic interactions between S. wiggsiae and other periodontopathic bacteria are warranted. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
