    (Sociedad Latinoamericana de Hipertension, 2016) Dávila, L.A.; Escobar, M.C.; Garrido, M.; Carrasco, P.; López-Miranda, J.; Aparicio, D.; Céspedes, V.; González, R.; Chaparro, R.; Angarita, M.; Wilches-Duran, S.; Graterol-Rivas, M.; Chacón, J.; Cerda, M.; Contreras-Velasquez, J.; Reina, N.; Bermúdez, V.
    Existen diversos alimentos que contienen como nutriente principal hidratos de carbono, destacando entre ellos el pan por su masivo consumo a nivel mundial. Numerosos estudios se han llevado a cabo con el fin de reducir su índice glicémico, sin embargo, aún existe controversia sobre la acción de la fibra dietética en la disminución del IG en este alimento. Este estudio determinó el efecto de la fibra dietética sobre el índice glicémico y carga glicémica en dos tipos de panes comerciales en 23 individuos sanos quienes consumieron aleatoriamente 3 diferentes productos, de 50 g de carbohidratos cada uno, durante 6 días: pan blanco (PH), pan integral (PF), y solución glucosada como producto de referencia (SG). Se midió glicemia en ayunas y post-prandial a los tiempos 15, 30, 45, 60, 90 y 120 min. La insulina fue medida en el minuto 0 y 120 min. El área bajo la curva de glicemia resultó más baja para ambos tipos de pan PH 13589 ±1557, PF 12005 ±1254 que para el producto de referencia SG 14089 ±1245. Los valores del índice glicémico PH 68,55 ±1,2 y PF 62,10 ±1,3 y carga glicémica PH 16,45 ±1,4 resultaron más bajos para el pan con mayor aporte de fibra 9,93 ± 1,1, sin diferencias en la concentración de insulina, sugiriendo que la cantidad de carbohidratos y tipo de fibra contenidos en el pan integral, pueden considerarse factores intrínsecos en su composición nutricional, capaces de afectar la respuesta glicémica post- ingesta de estos productos en individuos sanos.

    CpG Single-Site Methylation Regulates TLR2 Expression in Proinflammatory PBMCs From Apical Periodontitis Individuals
    (Frontiers Media S.A., 2022-03) Bordagaray, M.; Fernández, A.; Astorga, J.; Garrido, M.; Hernández, P.; Chaparro, A.; Lira, M.; Gebicke-Haerter, P.; Hernández, M.
    Apical periodontitis (AP) is a common oral disease caused by the inflammatory destruction of the periapical tissues due to the infection of the root canal system of the tooth. It also contributes to systemic bacterial translocation, where peripheric mononuclear blood cells (PBMCs) can act as carriers. Toll-like receptor (TLR) 2 mediates the response to infection and activates inflammatory responses. DNA methylation can be induced by bacteria and contributes to the modulation of this response. Despite the evidence that supports the participation of PBMCs in immune-inflammatory disorders, the inflammatory profile and epigenetic regulatory mechanisms of PBMCs in AP individuals are unknown. Aim: To determine TLR2 gene methylation and inflammatory profiles of PBMCs in AP. Methods: Cross-sectional exploratory study. Otherwise, healthy individuals with AP (n=27) and controls (n=30) were included. PMBCs were isolated by a Ficoll gradient, cultured for 24 hours, and both RNA and DNA were extracted. DNA was bisulfite-treated, and specific sites at the promoter region of the TLR2 gene were amplified by qPCR using validated primers. To verify its amplification, agarose gels were performed. Then, the PCR product was sequenced. mRNA expression of TLR2 was determined by qPCR. The soluble levels of 105 inflammatory mediators were first explored with Proteome Profiler Human Cytokine Array Kit. Consequently, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-6, IL-10, IL-6Rα, IL-1β, and IL-12p70 levels were measured by Multiplex assay. Results: PBMCs from individuals with AP demonstrated a proinflammatory profile showing higher soluble levels of TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β compared to controls (p<0.05). Higher TLR2 expression and higher global methylation pattern of the promoter region of the gene were found in AP compared to controls (p<0.05). The CpGs single-sites at positions -166 and -146 were completely methylated, while the site -102 was totally unmethylated, independently of the presence of AP. DNA methylation of CpG single-sites in positions -77 and +24 was positively associated with TLR2 expression. Conclusions: PBMCs from AP subjects show a hyperinflammatory phenotype and TLR2 upregulation in association with single CpG-sites’ methylation from the TLR2 gene promoter, thereby contributing to a sustained systemic inflammatory load in individuals with periapical endodontic diseases.

    Efecto del β-glucano: De avena sobre el índice glicémico y carga glicémica de un suplemento nutricional edulcorado con sucralosa en adultos sanos: Un ensayo clínico aleatorizado
    (Sociedad Latinoamericana de Hipertension, 2016) Dávila, L.C.A.; Gómez, D.R.; López-Miranda, J.; Parra, K.; Uzcátegui, M.; Aparicio, D.; Céspedes, V.; González, R.; Chaparro, R.; Garrido, M.; Escobar, M.C.; Carrasco, P.; Durán, S.; Angarita, M.; Reina, N.; Wilches-Duran, S.; Graterol-Rivas, M.; Chacón, J.; Cerda, M.; Contreras-Velasquez, J.; Bermúdez, V.
    Las propiedades hipoglicemiantes del β-glucano de avena son de interés para la industria alimentaria y el área clínica, por sus potenciales beneficios sobre la salud al disminuir la respuesta glicémica, el nivel sérico de lipoproteínas de baja densidad y el índice glicémico de los alimentos. Existen suplementos nutricionales específicos para diabéticos edulcorados con sucralosa cuyo índice glicémico y carga glicémica aún no han sido establecidos. El efecto del β-glucano de avena sobre el índice glicémico y carga glicémica de un suplemento nutricional edulcorado con sucralosa, fue determinado en 13 adultos sanos (6 hombres y 7 mujeres), quienes consumieron aleatoriamente 4 alimentos en días distintos, de 50 g de carbohidratos cada uno: suplemento nutricional para diabéticos (FN), suplemento nutricional con β-glucano (FN- β), y como productos de referencia: solución glucosada (SG) y pan blanco (PB). Se midió glicemia en ayunas y post- prandial a los tiempos 15, 30, 45, 60, 90 y 120 min. El área bajo la curva de glicemia resultó más baja para ambas fórmulas (FN) 12697±993, (FN-β) 11584 ±1171, que para los productos de referencia:(SG) 13900±1245, y (PB) 13267 ± 1557. Los valores de índice glicémico (FN) 67,02 ± 5,69, así como la carga glicémica resultaron intermedios y más bajos para el suplemento con β-glucano incorporado (FN –β) 59,8 ± 6,2; sin diferencias en la concentración de insulina, sugiriendo que la adición del β-glucano derivado de la avena reduce la velocidad de absorción intestinal de la glucosa, efecto que podría estudiarse en diabéticos.

    Systemic and Extraradicular Bacterial Translocation in Apical Periodontitis
    (Frontiers Media S.A., 2021-03) Bordagaray, M.J.; Fernández, A.; Garrido, M.; Astorga, J.; Hoare, A.; Hernández, M.
    Apical periodontitis is an inflammatory disease of microbial etiology. It has been suggested that endodontic bacterial DNA might translocate to distant organs via blood vessels, but no studies have been conducted. We aimed first to explore overall extraradicular infection, as well as specifically by Porphyromonas spp; and their potential to translocate from infected root canals to blood through peripheral blood mononuclear cells. In this cross-sectional study, healthy individuals with and without a diagnosis of apical periodontitis with an associated apical lesion of endodontic origin (both, symptomatic and asymptomatic) were included. Apical lesions (N=64) were collected from volunteers with an indication of tooth extraction. Intracanal samples (N=39) and respective peripheral blood mononuclear cells from apical periodontitis (n=14) individuals with an indication of endodontic treatment, as well as from healthy individuals (n=14) were collected. The detection frequencies and loads (DNA copies/mg or DNA copies/μL) of total bacteria, Porphyromonas endodontalis and Porphyromonas gingivalis were measured by qPCR. In apical lesions, the detection frequencies (%) and median bacterial loads (DNA copies/mg) respectively were 70.8% and 4521.6 for total bacteria; 21.5% and 1789.7 for Porphyromonas endodontalis; and 18.4% and 1493.9 for Porphyromonas gingivalis. In intracanal exudates, the detection frequencies and median bacterial loads respectively were 100% and 21089.2 (DNA copies/μL) for total bacteria, 41% and 8263.9 for Porphyromonas endodontalis; and 20.5%, median 12538.9 for Porphyromonas gingivalis. Finally, bacteria were detected in all samples of peripheral blood mononuclear cells including apical periodontitis and healthy groups, though total bacterial loads (median DNA copies/μL) were significantly higher in apical periodontitis (953.6) compared to controls (300.7), p<0.05. Porphyromonas endodontalis was equally detected in both groups (50%), but its bacterial load tended to be higher in apical periodontitis (262.3) than controls (158.8), p>0.05; Porphyromonas gingivalis was not detected. Bacteria and specifically Porphyromonas spp. were frequently detected in endodontic canals and apical lesions. Also, total bacteria and Porphyromonas endodontalis DNA were detected in peripheral blood mononuclear cells, supporting their plausible role in bacterial systemic translocation. © Copyright © 2021 Bordagaray, Fernández, Garrido, Astorga, Hoare and Hernández.
