21. Periodontal medicine : oral inflammatory conditions with special emphasis on immunological aspects
Sammanfattning : Systemic effects of periodontal disease have been a subject of interest for the past century, with intense focus converging since the past decade. Both rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and periodontal disease (PD) are immuno-inflammatory diseases with osteolysis as its hallmark feature. Activated T cells are known to modulate osteoclastogenesis.

22. Studies on host-response markers in gingival crevicular fluid and subgingival periodontopathogens : implications in assessment and monitoring of subjects with periodontal diseases
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
23. Salivary biomarkers : diagnostic potential in oral and systemic diseases in epidemiological surveys
Sammanfattning : Human saliva is a fluid with many biological functions, and essential for the maintenance of oral health. Several studies report local and systemic biomarkers appearing in saliva, including electrolytes, blood products, enzymes and tissue destruction molecules, inflammatory markers as well as proteins putatively associated with different diseases.

24. Oral mucositis and periodontal disease in patients with primary or acquired immunodeficiencies
Sammanfattning : The infection and inflammation in the oral cavity are commonly related to the skewed interaction between host immunity and inhabiting microorganisms. Both primary and acquired immunodeficiency conditions are frequently associated with oral symptoms. LÄS MER
25. Expression and regulation of MMP-1 and MMP-3 in human gingival fibroblasts
Sammanfattning : Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a group of proteolytic enzymes collectively responsible for the metabolism of extra cellular matrix components. Disturbance of the physiological balance between MMPs and their endogenous inhibitors, tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs), is implicated in several inflammatory diseases characterized by tissue degradation.
