Local immunoglobulin synthesis in juvenile periodontitis: initial findings.
نویسندگان
چکیده
An electro-immunoassay technique was used to determine simultaneously immunoglobulin G (IgG) and albumin concentrations in serum and extracts of gingival tissue comprising the pocket wall. Assays of samples obtained from seven patients with juvenile periodontitis (mean age, 18 years) indicated that local synthesis accounted for 72% of the IgG found in the gingiva.

Relationship between gingival crevicular fluid and serum antibody titers in young adults with generalized and localized periodontitis.
The objective of the present study was to determine the relationship between concentrations of antibodies in serum and those in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) of patients with juvenile periodontitis and severe periodontitis. Most antigens used to quantitate antibodies were obtained from a panel of bacteria associated with juvenile periodontitis or severe periodontitis. We further investigated ...

متن کاملRegulation of immunoglobulin G2 production by prostaglandin E(2) and platelet-activating factor.
Patients with localized juvenile periodontitis (LJP) have elevated levels of immunoglobulin G2 (IgG2) in their sera. This is also observed in vitro when peripheral blood leukocytes from LJP patients are stimulated with pokeweed mitogen. In previous studies, we showed that lymphocytes from subjects with no periodontitis (NP subjects) produced substantial amounts of IgG2 when they were cultured w...

Objectives The first cause of tooth loss in developed countries is periodontitis. Chronic periodontitis is the most common form of periodontitis and it is characterized by loss of periodontal attachment, destruction of alveolar bone and eventual loss of teeth. Atorvastatin is a statin drug used for the treatment of high cholesterol. Statins can stop the inflammatory proc...
