Pyrosequencing analysis of apical microbiota of teeth with persistent apical periodontitis
Journal of Dental Sciences, 2015 Background/purpose: Bacteria inside and outside the root canal at the apical area are crucial for persistent periapical infection. Thus, we aimed to investigate the composition and diversity of apical microbiota in persistent apical periodontitis lesions.

Genetic Predisposition to Persistent Apical Periodontitis [PDF]
Journal of Endodontics, 2011 The proinflammatory cytokine interleukin (IL)-1 is a key regulator of host responses to microbial infection and a major modulator of extracellular matrix catabolism and bone resorption. Allele2 of IL-1β is associated with a four-fold increase in IL-1β production.
