Diosgenin prevents periodontitis by inhibiting inflammation and promoting osteogenic differentiation.

Diosgenin, an essential dietary steroidal sapogenin, possess multiple pharmacological activities. This study aimed to assess the effects of diosgenin on periodontitis and elucidate the mechanisms. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLCs) and a Porphyromonas gingivalis (P.

SPRC Suppresses Experimental Periodontitis by Modulating Th17/Treg Imbalance.

The aims of the study were to explore the protective effects of S-propargyl-cysteine (SPRC) on periodontitis and to determine the underlying mechanisms. A rat periodontitis model was constructed by injecting LPS and SPRC (0, 25, and 50 mg/kg/d) was administered intraperitoneally. H2S and CSE level were detected.

In vitro anti‑bacterial activity of diosgenin on Porphyromonas gingivalis and Prevotella intermedia.

Diosgenin (Dios), a natural steroidal sapogenin, is a bioactive compound extracted from dietary fenugreek seeds. It has a wide range of applications, exhibiting anti‑oxidant, anti‑inflammatory and anti‑cancer activities. However, whether the extracts have beneficial effects on periodontal pathogens has so far remained elusive.
