- Abstract: 【Objective】 To analyze the expressions of IL-10, IL-35 and TGF-β in CD25+B cells from periodontitis individuals, and then establish how the activation of TLR4/9 affects the above processes. 【Methods】 SD rats were randomly divided into healthy group, primary periodontitis groups and severe periodontitis group; experimental models were performed by ligation. Expression of IL-10, IL-35 and TGF-β mRNA in CD25+B cells from gingiva and peripheral blood, expression and activation of TLR 2/4/7/9, MyD88, TRAF6 in gingival CD25+B cells were detected. The effect of TLRs/MyD88 on IL-10, IL-35 and TGF-β expressions and production were evaluated by cell culture experiments. 【Results】 CD25+B cells from gingiva of primary periodontitis individuals showed improved expression of IL-10 and TGF-β mRNA compared with the healthy ones (P<0.05); cells from peripheral blood did not present the same tendency. CD25+B cells from gingiva of severe periodontitis individuals showed improved expression of IL-10, IL-35 and TGF-β mRNA compared with the healthy ones (P<0.05), cells from peripheral blood showed higher IL-10 mRNA level than the healthy ones (P<0.05). Compared with healthy individuals, the expression and phosphorylation of TLR4/9 and MyD88 in CD25+B cells from gingiva of severe periodontitis individuals were increased (P<0.01). In cell culture experiments, TLR4 agonist promoted IL-10, IL-35 and TGF-β mRNA expression and IL-10 secretion (P<0.05); TLR9 agonist improved IL-10 and TGF-β mRNA expression and IL-10 secretion (P<0.05). The combined use of TLR4/9 agonist could increase the expression and secretion of all the detected indexes (P<0.05); MyD88 antagonism decrease the above effects (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 The expressions of IL-10, IL-35 and TGF-β in gingiva CD25+B cells increase during periodontitis, which may be regulated by TLR4 /9-MyD88 pathway.
