(Wiley-Blackwell, 2018)BACKGROUND: Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans expresses several virulence factors that may contribute to the pathogenesis of periodontitis. Based on the antigenicity of the O-polysaccharide component of the ...
-
(2005)Background: Several studies have investigated genetic polymorphisms for cytokines as potential genetic markers for periodontitis. Some studies have found that interleukin (IL)-1A and IL-1B polymorphisms are associated with ...
-
(Elsevier, 2019)Brucella canis is a small intracellular Gram-negative bacterium that frequently leads to chronic infections highly resistant to antibiotic therapy in dogs. Also, it causes mild human brucellosis compared to other zoonotic ...
-
(SAGE, 2020)Periodontal and periapical lesions are infectious inflammatory osteolitytic conditions in which a complex inflammatory immune response mediates bone destruction. However, the uncertainty of a lesion's progressive or stable ...
-
(2009)Aim: Capsular polysaccharides play an important role in the virulence of Grampositive and Gram-negative bacteria. In Porphyromonas gingivalis, six serotypes have been described based on capsular antigenicity and its ...
-
(Universidad Costa Rica, Facultad Odontología, 2022)Periodontitis is a low-grade inflammatory disease caused by a subgingival dysbiotic microbiota. Multiple studies have determined the higher prevalence of tooth loss and poor oral hygiene in patients with Alzheimer's disease ...
-
(Springer Verlag, 2018)Objectives Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by tooth-supporting tissue destruction, which is elicited by the host’s immune response triggered against periodonto-pathogen bacteria. During ...
-
(Elsevier, 2014)Background: Macrophages account for 5% to 30% of the inflammatory infiltrate in periodontitis and are activated by the classic and alternative pathways. These pathways are identified by indirect markers, among which ...

(American Academy of Periodontology, 2014)Macrophages account for 5% to 30% of the inflammatory infiltrate in periodontitis and are activated by the classic and alternative pathways. These pathways are identified by indirect markers, among which interferon (IFN)-γ ...
-
(2009)Background: Epidemiologic studies have shown an increased frequency, severity, and risk of periodontitis in patients with diabetes. Periodontitis is associated with certain interleukin (IL)-1 gene cluster polymorphisms. ...
-
(2012)Background: Interleukin-21 (IL-21) controls the differentiation of T-helper Th17 cells and induces the production of IL-17 in this T-cell subtype. The aim of this study is to determine the relative expression of IL-21 ...
-
(American Academy of Periodontology, 2000)Background: Various cytokines have been identified at sites of chronic inflammation such as periodontitis. Cytokines are synthesized in response to bacteria and their products, inducing and maintaining an inflammatory ...
-
(American Academy of Periodontology, 2011-10)BACKGROUND: A growing body of evidence suggested that interleukin (IL)-21 enhances the effector phase during T-cell responses. The aim of our study is to determine the levels of IL-21 in periodontal sites from patients ...
-
(Elsevier, 2015)Periodontitis is a highly prevalent infectious disease characterized by the progressive inflammatory destruction of tooth-supporting structures, leading to tooth loss. The underling molecular mechanisms of the disease ...
-
(2016)Increased matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) activity is a hallmark of periapical granulomas. However, the factors underlying the MMPs expression modulation in healthy and diseased periapical tissues remains to be determined. ...
-
(Wiley, 2020)Objective This study aimed to determine the expression of distinct matrix metalloproteinases, cytokines, and bone resorptive factors in temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJ-OA) patients and their association with ...
-
(2007)Propósito. La osteoartritis temporomandibular es una enfermedad articular degenerativa, caracterizada por la destrucción del cartílago y hueso articular consecutiva a la respuesta inflamatoria e inmune desarrollada. En ...
-
(Elsevier Ltd, 2018)Objective: In Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, different serotypes have been described based on LPS antigenicity. Mixed infection with the different A. actinomycetemcomitans serotypes is frequent in periodontitis ...
