Gingival crevicular fluid as a periodontal diagnostic indicator- I: Host derived enzymes and tissue breakdown products
نویسنده
چکیده
Researchers involved in the delivery of periodontal therapy are currently investigating the possible use of oral fluids in the diagnosis of oral diseases and drug development. Substantial improvements have been made in the understanding of the mediators implicated on the initiation, pathogenesis, and progression of periodontitis. This review will analyze the mechanisms involved in the breakdown of periodontal supporting tissues during chronic periodontitis and highlights the potential array of biomarkers present in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF), which may relate to existing or predicted tissue regions undergoing metabolic change.

Statement of Problem: Changes in protein levels, host calls enzymes and inflammatory mediators in gingival crevicular Fluid (GCF) are considered as diagnostic indicators of Periodontitis.Purpose: he aim of the present study was to measure the elastase enzyme activity in gingival crevicular Fluid among patients with periodontitis.Material and Methods: In this study, 52 periodontitis patients (ex...
متن کاملThe Apolipoprotein B concentration in Gingival Crevicular Fluid of Diabetes Mellitus Patients
Introduction Gingival crevicular fluid is exuded from the surrounding tissue of periodontal pockets in response to the pathogenic process in periodontitis. Gingival crevicular fluid contains microbial plaque, host inflammatory cells, host tissue and serumderived factors. As periodontal disease progresses, the volume of GCF increases and inflammatory cytokines appear in the GCF. GCF can be easil...
متن کاملOral Fluid-Based Biomarkers in Periodontal Disease – Part 2. Gingival Crevicular Fluid
Periodontal diagnosis and treatment plan are based on the assessment of probing depth, clinical attachment level, plaque index, gingival index, bleeding on probing, suppuration, furcation involvement, mobility, and radiographic findings. However, these clinical parameters are not sufficiently sensitive and specific to identify disease activity in individual sites or to predict future attachment...
متن کاملEvaluation of Glutathione-S-transferase and Ceruloplasmin levels in gingival crevicular fluid and gingival tissue as diagnostic markers for chronic periodontitis
Periodontitis, is an infectious ailment of multifactorial origin, that brings about destruction of bone and surrounding tissues. There are various oral pathogens that may be responsible for the destruction. The host encounters these microbial invasions and their products by the production and release of inflammatory mediators from the cells within the body. Glutathione-S-transferase (GST) are a...
متن کاملGingival crevicular fluid can degrade Emdogain and inhibit Emdogain-induced proliferation of periodontal ligament fibroblasts.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Emdogain (EMD), consisting mostly of amelogenin, is used in periodontal therapy to regenerate lost connective tissue. Emdogain is applied onto periodontally affected root surfaces, where it becomes exposed to proteolytic enzymes. In this study, we aimed to find out whether gingival crevicular fluid or matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) could degrade EMD, and whether this ...
