Objective
The effects of the periodontal intervention on rats with type-II diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and chronic periodontitis (CP) were explored through observing the changes in carotid artery pathology and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels.
Methods
The rats were randomly divided into 5 groups, i.e. group A (the normal control group), group B (the T2DM control group), group C (the CP control group), group D (the T2DM + CP group), and group E (the periodontal intervention T2DM + CP group). Blood samples of rats were collected from angular veins respectively at the following 5 time nodes: 1 week before the intervention (T1), 1 week after the intervention (T2), 3 weeks after the intervention (T3), 5 weeks after the intervention (T4), and 7 weeks after the intervention (T5); IL-6 concentrations before and after the intervention were determined by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and the pathology of carotid arteries were observed by the Hematoxylin-Eosin (HE) stain.
Results
The pathological results of carotid arteries showed that the blood vessels of rats in group A were normal in morphology; most of the carotid artery vessel walls of rats in groups B, C, and D were significantly thickened and the fibers were disorderly arranged; the increased thickness of vessel walls of rats in group E was reduced, a small number of foam cells and inflammatory cells were observed, and the irregular arrangement of fibers was improved. In terms of the IL-6 concentrations, during the period of T1-T5, in groups B, C, and D, the IL-6 concentrations in rats were increased (P < 0.05); after the periodontal intervention, in group E, the IL-6 concentrations in rats were first increased then decreased (P < 0.05).
Conclusion
In terms of the long-term effects, periodontal intervention may reduce the inflammations of patients with diabetes mellitus and periodontitis and improve the lesions of carotid arteries.

慢性牙周炎合并糖尿病大鼠牙周介入治疗后血清炎性因子IL-6水平及颈动脉血管壁病理变化[J].
客观的
通过观察颈动脉病理学和白细胞介素6(IL-6)水平的变化,探讨牙周干预对II型糖尿病(T2DM)和慢性牙周炎(CP)大鼠的影响。
方法
将大鼠随机分为5组,即A组(正常对照组)、B组(T2DM对照组)、C组(CP对照组)、D组(T2DM+CP组)、E组(牙周干预T2DM+CP组)。分别在以下5个时间节点采集大鼠角静脉血样:干预前1周(T1)、干预后1周(T2)、干预后3周(T3)、干预后5周( T4) 和干预后 7 周 (T5);采用酶联免疫吸附试验(ELISA)测定干预前后IL-6浓度,采用苏木精-伊红(HE)染色观察颈动脉病理。
结果
颈动脉病理结果显示,A组大鼠血管形态正常;B、C、D组大鼠颈动脉血管壁大部分明显增厚,纤维排列紊乱;E组大鼠血管壁增厚减少,可见少量泡沫细胞和炎性细胞,纤维排列不规则情况得到改善。在IL-6浓度方面,T1~T5期间,B、C、D组大鼠IL-6浓度升高(P < 0.05);E组牙周干预后大鼠IL-6浓度先升高后降低(P < 0.05)。
结论
就远期效果而言,牙周干预可减轻糖尿病和牙周炎患者的炎症反应,改善颈动脉病变。
