Inflammatory and Immunological Basis of Periodontal Diseases
Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.The periodontal lesion emerges as an evolving immunological battlefield, where host–microbiome interactions, dysregulated immune responses, fragile resolution mechanisms, and inflammophilic dysbiosis converge to shift the balance from homeostasis to unrestrained tissue destruction.

The Role of Wnt Signaling in Age‐Related Alveolar Bone Loss and Regeneration
Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.The graphical abstract summarizes key signaling pathways involved in bone formation and resorption associated with Wnt signaling across young and aged long bone and jaw tissues. Levels of evidence are indicated as robust, moderate, or emerging, reflecting the current experimental support in each context.

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Obesity is understood as a condition driven by interactions between genetics and environmental factors. The role of CD36 in the regulation of lipid metabolism and ectopic fat accumulation emerges as a key area of interest. This review presents CD36 not only as a crucial facilitator of fatty acid uptake but also as a regulator of how and where ...

Osteoprotegerin Contributes to the Metastatic Potential of Cells with a Dysfunctional TSC2 Tumor-Suppressor Gene [PDF]
, 1974 In addition to its effects on bone metabolism, osteoprotegerin (OPG), a soluble member of the tumor necrosis factor family of receptors, promotes smooth muscle cell proliferation and migration and may act as a survival factor for tumor cells.

The role of acquired host immunity in periodontal diseases
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract The aim of this narrative review is to relate the contribution of European researchers to the complex topic of the host immune system in periodontal disease, focusing on acquired immunity. Other chapters in this volume will address the genetics and autoantibody responses and other forms of immunity to periodontal disease.
