BACKGROUND
Alkaline phosphatase is an intracellular destruction enzyme in the periodontium, and it takes part in the normal turnover of the periodontal ligament, alveolar bone, and root cementum formation and maintenance.
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this case control study was to evaluate the enzyme
Tyrosine-protein phosphatase non-receptor type 2 (PTPN2) is an important protection factor for diabetes and periodontitis, but the underlying mechanism remains elusive. This study aimed to identify the substrate of PTPN2 in mediating beneficial effects of 25-Hydroxyvitamin D3
The main therapeutic approaches for inflammatory periodontal diseases include the mechanical treatment of root surfaces. Multi-center clinical trials have demonstrated that the adjunctive use of a chlorhexidine (CHX) chip is effective in improving clinical results compared to scaling and root
OBJECTIVE
Periodontitis is one of the major problems slowly progressing and could affect 70% of the global population. The prevalence of periodontitis differs from mild to moderate forms of race and geographic region. The aim of this study is to determine the acid phosphatase (ACP) activity in the
Gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) samples were collected from 204 teeth from 35 subjects, including 8 rapidly progressive periodontitis (RPP), 14 chronic adult periodontitis (CAP), 7 marginal gingivitis (MG) and 6 healthy subjects (H). The results of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) examination indicated
The serine phosphatase SerB653 plays a crucial role in the infection of Porphyromonas gingivalis, which contributes to the pathogenesis of periodontitis, an inflammatory disease of teeth-supporting tissues. Because functional loss of SerB653 eliminates the virulence of P. gingivalis, SerB653
Our group and others have shown in vitro that repeated exposure of human mononuclear cells (MNC) to lipopolysaccharide can induce endotoxin tolerance, evidenced by downregulation of TLR2 and TLR4 mRNA and surface protein; moreover, the ability of the MNC to secrete inflammatory cytokines is reduced.
The traditional method of diagnosing periodontitis includes the assessment of clinical parameters and radiographic aids to evaluate the periodontal tissue destruction. Saliva has the potential to be used as the diagnostic fluid for oral disease. This study aimed at comparing the BACKGROUND
Roles for host enzymes as diagnostic indicators of periodontal status in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) have been proposed. One of these host enzymes is alkaline phosphatase (ALP), the GCF activity of which has been associated with periodontal inflammation. Thus, the present study aimed
BACKGROUND
Clinical evaluation of gingivitis and/or periodontitis does not predict the progression or remission of the disease. Due to this diagnostic constraint, clinicians assume that the pathology has an increased risk of progression and plan treatments, despite the knowledge that all inflamed
OBJECTIVE
Periodontitis may alter systemic homeostasis and influence creatinine and alkaline phosphatase levels. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between severe chronic periodontitis and serum creatinine and alkaline phosphatase levels.
METHODS
One hundred patients
BACKGROUND
High alkaline phosphatase activity (ALP) is shown in the periodontal ligament due to the constant renewal of this tissue or pathological circumstances. We have previously shown that the activity level of this enzyme could be reflected at the serum level.
OBJECTIVE
Because the local
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical efficacy and the level of DKK1 and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) while taking Er:YAG laser as an adjunctive to scaling and root planning in the treatment of chronic periodontitis
BACKGROUND
Current clinical periodontal diagnostic techniques emphasize the assessment of clinical and radiographic signs of periodontal diseases which can provide a measure of history of disease. Hence, new methodologies for early identification and determination of periodontal disease activity
Acid phosphatase activity was examined ultracytochemically in gingival specimens to elucidate the response of plasma cells to Russell's bodies. The acid phosphatase activity was discernible in lysosomes of various morphology, some of which contained Russell's bodies. The acid phosphatase activity
