Pyroptosis, an inflammatory caspase-dependent programmed cell death, plays a vital role in maintaining tissue homeostasis and activating inflammatory responses. Orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) is an aseptic force-induced inflammatory bone remodeling process mediated by the activation of periodontal ligament (PDL) progenitor cells. However, whether and how force induces PDL progenitor cell pyroptosis, thereby influencing OTM and alveolar bone remodeling remains unknown. In this study, we found that mechanical force induced the expression of pyroptosis-related markers in rat OTM and alveolar bone remodeling process. Blocking or enhancing pyroptosis level could suppress or promote OTM and alveolar bone remodeling respectively. Using Caspase-1^-/- mice, we further demonstrated that the functional role of the force-induced pyroptosis in PDL progenitor cells depended on Caspase-1. Moreover, mechanical force could also induce pyroptosis in human ex-vivo force-treated PDL progenitor cells and in compressive force-loaded PDL progenitor cells in vitro, which influenced osteoclastogenesis. Mechanistically, transient receptor potential subfamily V member 4 signaling was involved in force-induced Caspase-1-dependent pyroptosis in PDL progenitor cells. Overall, this study suggested a novel mechanism contributing to the modulation of osteoclastogenesis and alveolar bone remodeling under mechanical stimuli, indicating a promising approach to accelerate OTM by targeting Caspase-1.

China's healthcare payment reform seeks to combine a medical insurance point-system with a global budget.The focus and difficulty in implementing the payment reform is how to make effectively link.On the basis of theoretical analysis,it selects the regions that have implemented the payment by disease under regional total budget and the payment by disease under institutional total budget,and summarizes the synergistic mechanism of total budget and payment by disease,including the strict control of total budget at the regional level,the reasonable setup of the budget or the standard of expected service volume at the institutional level,and the rate fluctuation and discount mechanism for the settlement of excess service;and further sort out the additional incentive mechanism to support innovation and quality enhancement under the background of the total budget and the payment by disease.Lessons can be drawn from the experiences of typical regions to strengthen the synergy between regional budgets,institutional budgets and payment by type of disease,and cautiously deal with the risks of excessive competition and"punching points"that may arise from the regional point method.
