    • Active MMP-8 quantitative test as an adjunctive tool for early diagnosis of periodontitis 
      Hernández Ríos, Marcela; Baeza Paredes, Mauricio Enrique; Raisanen, Ismo; Contreras Balbontín, Johanna; Tervahartiala, Taina; Chaparro, Alejandra; Sorsa, Timo; Hernández Ríos, Patricia (MDPI, 2021)
      Periodontitis is a host-mediated bacterial disease that affects the tooth attachment apparatus. Metalloproteinase-8 (MMP-8), a validated biomarker, could aid in clinical diagnosis. This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic ...
    • Assessment of cardiovascular risk in women with periodontal diseases according to c-reactive protein levels 
      Da Venezia, Claudia; Hussein Rojas, Nayib Ignacio; Hernández Ríos, Marcela; Contreras Balbontín, Johanna; Morales Chvets, Alicia Alvarovna; Valdés, Macarena; Rojas, Francisca; Matamala López, Loreto; Hernández Ríos, Patricia (MDPI, 2021)
      Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are highly prevalent non-communicable diseases worldwide. Periodontitis may act as a non-traditional cardiovascular risk (CVR) factor, linked by a low-grade systemic inflammation mediated by ...
    • Diagnostic accuracy for apical and chronic periodontitis biomarkers in gingival crevicular fluid: an ... 
      Baeza Paredes, Mauricio; Garrido Flores, Carlos; Hernández Ríos, Patricia; Dezerega Piwonka, Andrea; García Sesnich, Jocelyn; Strauss Avendaño, Franz; Aitken Saavedra, Juan; Lesaffre, Emmanuel; Vanbelle, Sophie; Gamonal Aravena, Jorge Antonio; Brignardello Petersen, Romina; Tervahartiala, Taina; Sorsa, Timo; Hernández Ríos, Marcela (Wiley, 2016)
      AimThe aim of this study was to assess the levels and diagnostic accuracy of a set of potential biomarkers of periodontal tissue metabolism in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) from patients with chronic periodontitis (CP) ...
    • High Levels of CXC Ligand 12/Stromal Cell–derived Factor 1 in Apical Lesions of Endodontic Origin Associated ... 
      Cavalla, Franco; Reyes Rojas, Montserrat de los Ángeles; Vernal Astudillo, Rolando; Álvarez, Carla; Paredes, Rodolfo; García Sesnich, Jocelyn; Infante, Magdalena; Fariña, Valeska; Barrón, Ignacio; Hernández Ríos, Marcela (American Association of Endodontists, 2013)
      Introduction: CXC ligand 12/stromal-derived factor-1 (CXCL12/SDF-1) is a pleiotropic chemokine that regulates the influx of a wide range of leukocytes. The aim of this study was to characterize CXCL12/SDF-1 in apical lesions ...
    • Interferon-g, Interleukins-6 and -4, and Factor XIII-A as Indirect Markers of the Classical and Alternative ... 
      Navarrete, Mariely; García, Jocelyn; Dutzan Muñoz, Nicolás; Henríquez, Leslie; Puente Piccardo, Javier; Carvajal, Paola; Hernández Ríos, Marcela; Gamonal Aravena, Jorge Antonio (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 ...
    • Systemic and Extraradicular Bacterial Translocation in Apical Periodontitis 
      Bordagaray San Martín, María José; Fernández, Alejandra; Garrido, Mauricio; Astorga, Jéssica; Hoare Teuche, Anilei Paz; Hernández Ríos, Marcela (Frontiers Media, 2021)
      Apical periodontitis is an inflammatory disease of microbial etiology. It has been suggested that endodontic bacterial DNA might translocate to distant organs via blood vessels, but no studies have been conducted. We aimed ...
