Treating gingival fibroblasts with Bmi‑1 inhibitor PTC209, it was demonstrated that TLR4 activated the NLRP3 pathway and the inflammaging process by suppressing Bmi‑1. In addition, there was a significant reduction in the expression of Bmi‑1 expression in the gingiva of patients with periodontitis compared with healthy controls. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated that TLR4 acted by inhibiting Bmi‑1 to enhance the NLRP3 pathway and SASP factors. This cascade of reactions may contribute to the senescence of the periodontium.
