متن کاملThe association between selected RANKL gene polymorphisms and chronic/aggressive periodontitis in Iranian subjects
The primary aim of this study was to investigate the status of RANKL6-7 gene polymorphism in patients with chronic (mild, moderate, severe) and aggressive periodontitis as well as healthy controls. We examined80 patients for the RANKL6-7 polymorphisms (rs1054016 and rs9567000). Polymorphism was determinedby polymerase chain reaction (PCR) followed by direct sequencing. No statistica...
