Osteopontin in gingival crevicular fluid

Journal of Periodontal Research, 2001
Osteopontin (OPN) is a major glycosylated phosphoprotein in bone matrix and is produced by several cells including osteoblasts, osteoclasts and macrophages. OPN levels increase in active sites of bone metabolism. Recently, several bone‐related proteins were identified in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) to seek markers of alveolar bone resorption in ...

Neutrophil Fate in Gingival Crevicular Fluid

Ultrastructural Pathology, 2010
The fate of the neutrophils within the inflammatory exudate in the periodontal crevice and their possible participation in the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are of clinical interest. However, the cytological analysis of clinical samples of inflammatory exudate is restricted by the obtainable quantities, which do not enable ...

Gingival crevicular fluid antibody to oral microorganisms

Journal of Periodontal Research, 1985
Gingival homogenates (GH) from periodontally diseased subjects were assayed for total immunoglobulins and for antibody to periodontopathic bacteria. Antibody activity in static crevicular fluid (SCF) and GH was compared using an ELISA. Expression of IgG antibody activity per μg IgG or per unit volume of fluid was highly correlated. Antibody activity in

Gingival crevicular fluid osteocalcin in adult periodontitis [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Periodontology, 1999
Abstract. This study aimed to detect the levels of osteocalcin in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) from healthy (≤3 mm sulcus depth and non‐bleeding) and diseased sites (≥6 mm probing depth and bleeding) in subjects with adult periodontitis, in order to further investigate its potential as a possible marker of the disease process.

Gingival crevicular fluid proteomes in health, gingivitis and chronic periodontitis

Journal of Periodontal Research, 2014
ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to compare the proteome composition of gingival crevicular fluid obtained from healthy periodontium, gingivitis and chronic periodontitis affected sites.BackgroundOwing to its site‐specific nature, gingival crevicular fluid is ideal for studying biological processes that occur during periodontal health and disease ...

The quantification of individual proteins in crevicular gingival fluid

Journal of Periodontal Research, 1985
The aim of the present study was the quantification of proteins present in crevicular fluid obtained from individual sulci, and to this effect simplified micromethods for the quantification of individual proteins were developed. Unstimulated, resting crevicular fluid from healthy crevicular spaces (i.e.

Arylsulphatase activity in human gingival crevicular fluid

Archives of Oral Biology, 1984
Arylsulphatase activity in fluid collected from non-inflamed (n = 5), gingivitis (n = 5) and periodontitis (n = 5) subjects was assayed. The mean volume activity for each group was: non-inflamed = 768 +/- 165 nm/ml per h; gingivitis = 2431 +/- 1118 nm/ml per h; periodontitis = 2860 +/- 1839 nm/ml per h.

Penetration of tinidazole into the gingival crevicular fluid in dogs

Research in Veterinary Science, 1992
Tinidazole was administered as a single oral dose of 15 mg kg-1 to 12 dogs, and its concentration in the plasma and gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) was measured at one and two hours by high performance liquid chromatography. Tinidazole was detectable in GCF in five dogs at one hour (6.8 +/- 2.6 micrograms ml-1) and in six dogs at two hours (9.2 +/- 1.4

Phylloquinone in gingival crevicular fluid in adult periodontitis

Journal of Clinical Periodontology, 1998
Abstract. Phylloquinone is a lipid soluble vitamin which is an absolute growth requirement for black‐pigmented anaerobes, many of which are implicated in the aetiology of periodontal diseases. This cross‐sectional study aimed to detect the levels of phylloquinone in GCF from healthy and diseased sites in subjects with adult periodontitis, in order to ...

Cystatin A in gingival crevicular fluid of periodontal patients

Journal of Periodontal Research, 1997
Cystatins are physiological inhibitors of cysteine proteinases which are widely distributed in human tissues and fluids. In the present study we analysed both the cystatin activity and the different cystatin isoforms in gingival crevicular fluid and saliva samples of nine periodontitis patients.
