Porphyromonas gingivalis(P.g.), a major periodontal pathogen is a known risk factor for various systemic diseases. However, the relationship betweenP.g.and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH)-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is unclear. Thus, we aimed to elucidate whetherP.g.-odontogenic infection promotes NASH-related HCC development/progression and to clarify its mechanism. Using high-fat diet (HFD)-induced NASH mouse model,P.g.was infected odontogenically. After 60 weeks of infection, tumor profiles were examined. Chow diet (CD) groups were also prepared at 60 weeks. Nodule formation was only seen in HFD-mice.P.g.-odontogenic infection significantly increased the mean nodule area (P = 0.0188) and tended to promote histological progression score after 60 weeks (P = 0.0956). Interestingly,P.g.was detected in the liver. HFD-P.g.(+) showed numerous TNF-α positive hepatic crown-like structures and 8-OHdG expression in the non-neoplastic liver. InP.g.-infected hepatocytes, phosphorylation of integrin β1 signaling molecules (FAK/ERK/AKT) was upregulated in vitro. In fact, total AKT in the liver of HFD-P.g.(+) was higher than that of HFD-P.g.(−).P.g.-infected hepatocytes showed increased cell proliferation and migration, and decreased doxorubicin-mediated apoptosis. Integrin β1 knockdown inhibited these phenotypic changes.P.g.-odontogenic infection may promote the progression of neoplastic nodule formation in an HFD-induced NASH mouse model via integrin signaling and TNF-α induced oxidative DNA damage.
