Abstract:
Objective To analyse the relationship and mechanism between chronic periodontitis (CP) and IgA nephropathy (IgAN) by establishing animal model of chronic periodontitis and IgA nephropathy in SD rats.Methods Eighty health male SD rats were divided into four groups,control group (A,n=20),IgAN group (B,n=20),CP group (C,n=20),CP accompanied with IgAN group (D,n=20).CP model was established by ligating silk suture and besmeared pathogenic bacterium in rats dental cervix.Experimental IgAN model was established by lavage of bovine serum albumin (BSA) and injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and carbon tetrachloride (CCl4).Ten rats were sacrificed in every group at the end of week 8 and 12.The blood,urine,kidney tissue samples were examined.The observation index included proteinuria,kidney and liver function,renal tissue pathology and periodontal tissue pathology.The data were statistically analysed.Results Animal models were established successfully.The levels of Scr and BUN in group A,B,C were not obvious difference,but that in group D was higher than the other third groups at 8 weeks (P < 0.05).The levels of Scr and BUN in group D and group B were significantly higher than that in group A,meanwhile that in group D was significantly higher than that in group B at 12 weeks(P < 0.05).The levels of 24 h urine protein in B,C,D groups were higher than that in group A at 8 weeks(P < 0.05),but at 12 week,that in group D was higher than that in group B and C (P < 0.05).At 8 weeks,glomeruli had little mesangial broadening and renal interstitium had mild hyperplasia of fibrous tissue in group B and D,and that in the group D significantly was heavier than that in group B.The focal varying degrees were glomerular mesangial proliferation hardening,glomerular mesangial broadening,focal segmental sclerosis,and diffuse or focal inflammatory cell infiltration in D group at the end of week 12.The score of PAS between group A and group C had no statistical significance.The scores of PAS in group B and D were higher than that in group A (P < 0.01),and that in group D was higher than that in group B (P < 0.01).Obvious inflammation of periodontal tissue was observed in group C and D,and modified sulcus bleeding index (MBI) were higher than that in group A and B,and MBI in group D was significantly higher than that in group C (P < 0.01).Conclusions The model can be used to research the change of biochemistry and pathology and observe the relationship between chronic periodontitis and IgAN.This study shows that there is relationship between chronic periodontitis and IgAN.Chronic periodontitis maybe make more serious pathology damage in kidney by inflammation mechanism.
