Salivary and crevicular fluid interleukins in gingivitis
INTRODUCTION Gingivitis is a frequent inflammatory process of the gum tissue that is mainly caused by the accumulation of plaque. The immune response against inflammatory processes is regulated in part by cytokines. AIMS Given that a continuous inflammation exists in gingivitis, it would be logical to assume that the interleukins will be altered locally in those patients. Therefore, the aim o...
متن کاملLactoferrin in Gingival Crevicular Fluid and Peripheral Blood during Experimental Gingivitis
OBJECTIVES Lactoferrin (LF) is an iron binding protein and stored in the specific granules of granulocytes. It is released by degranulation following granulocyte activation. A positive correlation was previously reported between periodontitis and LF titers of gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and blood. The purpose of this study was to examine alterations of GCF and blood levels of LF (LF-GCF and...
متن کاملThe effect of smoking on gingival crevicular fluid volume during the treatment of gingivitis.
Smoking is detrimental to periodontal tissues, and periodontal destruction is greater among smokers. Paradoxically, smokers seem to have less gingival bleeding than never-smokers with comparable supragingival plaque. There is scarce information about the impact of smoking on gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) volume. This single-arm study clinical trial assessed the effect of smoking on GCF volume...
متن کاملThe Effect of Age on the Gingival Crevicular Fluid Composition During Experimental Gingivitis. A Pilot Study
BACKGROUND Cytokines have been proposed as potentially useful diagnostic or prognostic markers of periodontal inflammation related alterations during the experimental gingivitis model. The role of ageing in periodontal disease needs further elucidation; therefore investigations of its influence on host response are needed. OBJECTIVE To study the effect of age on interleukins IL -6, IL-8 and T...
متن کاملSalivary and gingival crevicular fluid histatin in periodontal health and disease
OBJECTIVES Histatin, with its anti bacterial, anti protease, and wound closure stimulating property might influence the pathogenesis of periodontal disease. This study assessed the presence of histatin in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF); the levels of salivary and GCF histatin in periodontal disease. MATERIAL AND METHODS It was a cross sectional study that included systemically healthy forty ...
