Abstract
Introduction: Trace mineral micronutrients are essential for periodontal health, and unbalanced levels of trace minerals are related to chronic periodontitis, including copper. We attempted to explore the relationship between cuproptosis and periodontitis.
Methods: Bulk RNA-seq and single-cell RNA sequencing data were used to analyze expression of cuproptosis-related genes (CRGs) in periodontitis. A mouse periodontitis model was established to verify the expression of key genes.
Results: Cuproptosis-related genes were differentially expressed in periodontitis. RT-PCR results confirmed the alteration of five key genes in the mouse model.
Conclusions: Cuproptosis is an important player in the pathophysiological process of periodontitis.
期刊介绍:
Archives of Medical Science (AMS) publishes high quality original articles and reviews of recognized scientists that deal with all scientific medicine. AMS opens the possibilities for young, capable scientists. The journal would like to give them a chance to have a publication following matter-of-fact, professional review by outstanding, famous medical scientists. Thanks to that they will have an opportunity to present their study results and/or receive useful advice about the mistakes they have made so far.
The second equally important aim is a presentation of review manuscripts of recognized scientists about the educational capacity, in order that young scientists, often at the beginning of their scientific carrier, could constantly deepen their medical knowledge and be up-to-date with current guidelines and trends in world-wide medicine. The fact that our educational articles are written by world-famous scientists determines their innovation and the highest quality.
