Effect of inflammation upon human gingival oxidative metabolism.
CytOChrome oxidase and NADH cytochrome c reductase activities were analyzed biochemically in gingiv.il hiops> specimens obtained from 22 male patients (age 23-72) undergoing periodonta] treatment. Histologieully. 13 specimens evhibited mild inflammation, while 9 showed more severe inflammatory responses. Cytochrome oxidase activity was significantly greater in the mildly inflamed than in marked...
متن کاملSalivary cytokine levels in early gingival inflammation
Salivary protein levels have been studied in periodontitis. However, there is lack of information on salivary cytokine levels in early gingival inflammation. The aim of this study was to determine salivary levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), interleukin (IL)-8, monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1, IL-1β, and IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) in gingival inflammation.

Based on the protective role of melanocytes in medical literature, the role of melanin pigmentation in gingiva needs to be elucidated. Periodontal pathogens and their products demonstrate the ability to indu...
متن کاملConsumption of Bilberries Controls Gingival Inflammation
Bioactive molecules in berries may be helpful in reducing the risk of oral diseases. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of bilberry consumption on the outcome of a routine dental clinical parameter of inflammation, bleeding on probing (BOP), as well as the impact on selected biomarkers of inflammation, such as cytokines, in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) in individuals with ging...
متن کاملRelationship between Gingival Inflammation and Pregnancy
An increase in the prevalence and severity of gingival inflammation during pregnancy has been reported since the 1960s. Though the etiology is not fully known, it is believed that increasing plasma sex steroid hormone levels during pregnancy have a dramatic effect on the periodontium. Current works of research have shown that estrogen and progesterone increasing during pregnancy are supposed to...
