The aim was to study the association between microflora and medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) by using culture-independent molecular techniques to detect bacteria in necrotic bone lesions.
Included were 18 consecutive patients with MRONJ, 10 with osteoporosis and 8 cancer patients. Bone biopsies were retrieved from the center of the necrotic bone and from visually healthy bone, and 16 S rRNA gene fragments from bacterial DNA were amplified with polymerase chain reaction.
The study revealed a diversity of bacteria represented by 16 S rRNA sequences in all the necrotic bone samples and in 60% of the visually healthy bone. Eight dominating taxa groups were identified at the genus level: Porphyromonas, Lactobacillus, Tannerella, Prevotella, Actinomyces, Treponema, Streptococcus, and Fusobacterium.
The necrotic bone lesions contained mainly anaerobic bacteria, representative of periodontal microflora, suggesting that a periodontal infection in combination with antiresorptive treatment could initiate osteonecrosis.
旨在通过使用非培养分子技术检测坏死骨病变中的细菌,研究微生物群与药物相关性颌骨坏死(MRONJ)之间的关联。
纳入18例连续性MRONJ患者,其中10例为骨质疏松患者,8例为癌症患者。从坏死骨中心和外观健康的骨组织获取骨活检样本,并用聚合酶链反应扩增细菌DNA中的16S rRNA基因片段。
研究显示,在所有坏死骨样本以及60%外观健康的骨组织中,均存在以16S rRNA序列为代表的多种细菌。在属水平上鉴定出8个主要分类群:卟啉单胞菌属、乳杆菌属、坦纳菌属、普雷沃菌属、放线菌属、密螺旋体属、链球菌属和梭杆菌属。
坏死骨病变主要包含厌氧细菌,这些细菌是牙周微生物群的代表,提示牙周感染与抗吸收治疗相结合可能引发骨坏死。
