项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The goal of this proposal is to develop nitric oxide releasing dendrimers to inhibit biofilm based periodontopathogens and associated periodontal disease. The rationale for pursuing this work is based on nitric oxide's broad spectrum antimicrobial activity, rapid diffusion through biofilms, short half-life (thus imparting local acton) and physiological role in the immune response to pathogens. The use of a macromolecular NO release scaffold enables us to maximize bactericidal activity while minimizing the cytotoxic impact on healthy oral cells and tissue. We will study the influence of dendrimer size/molecular weight, charge, exterior functionality, and NO release properties on pathogenic plaque bacteria killing. We will systematically study both dendrimer and nitric oxide penetration into in vitro models of oral plaque biofilms as a function of biofilm composition, maturity and mass. An established murine model for periodontal infection will be employed to evaluate how dendrimer composition and nitric oxide release influence inflammation, host immune response, and biofilm eradication.

描述（由适用提供）：该提案的目的是开发一氧化氮，以抑制基于生物膜的牙周病原和相关牙周疾病。追求这项工作的基本原理是基于一氧化氮的广谱抗菌活性，通过生物膜快速扩散，半衰期短（从而赋予局部acton）以及在对病原体的免疫响应中的身体作用。大分子无释放支架的使用使我们能够最大化细菌活性，同时最大程度地减少对健康口腔细胞和组织的细胞毒性影响。我们将研究树枝状聚合物大小/分子量，电荷，外部功能以及无释放性能对致病性斑块细菌杀死的影响。我们将系统地研究树枝状聚合物和一氧化氮的渗透到口服斑块生物膜的体外模型中，这是生物膜组成，成熟度和质量的函数。将进行固定的牙周感染鼠模型，以评估树枝状聚合物组成和一氧化氮释放如何影响感染，宿主免疫反应和消除生物膜。
