Human leukocyte antigen associations and c-reactive protein levels in lebanese patients with aggressive periodontitis—HLA and CRP in aggressive periodontitis
Background: Periodontal disease, which affects toothsupporting structures, results from disequilibrium between the oral micro flora and host defense mechanisms. It has been classified into chronic (CP) or aggressive (AP) periodontitis according to disease onset, localization and progression. Because of their involvement in generating immune responses, Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) alleles are c...
