Abstract

Periodontitis is a chronic infectious disease, the course and progression of which are determined by the interaction between microorganisms and the host. Interleukin 1β plays an important role in the destruction of periodontal tissues. Interleukin 1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) can inhibit the biological activity of IL-1β without triggering any intracellular signaling. This study aimed to prepare IL-1ra-loaded dextran/PLGA microspheres and evaluate the physical and chemical characteristics and anti-inflammatory properties. Results suggested that the microspheres can be easily prepared into a drug carrier with good biocompatibility and can effectively inhibit the gene expression of pro-inflammatory factors induced by IL-1β in human gingival fibroblasts. Hence, the microspheres are excellent candidate for periodontitis treatment.
