ABSTRACT Aim Risk assessment tools for periodontitis lack sufficient precision to predict disease progression. The aim of this exploratory study was to evaluate proteolytic activity (PA) in gingival crevicular fluid in relation to clinically assessed progression risk, microbial community composition and host proteome. Materials and Methods Samples were

1D- and 2D-immunoblots of Serpin A1.
3A shows 1D-immunoblot band volumes (adjusted for membrane background) of Serpin A1. 3B shows the statistical analysis for the 1D-immunoblot validation of all proteins found to be regulated in the 2D DIGE experiment.

Genetic Susceptibility to Periodontitis
Aim: The aim of this narrative review was to identify genes carrying risk alleles associated with an increased risk of periodontitis and to place them in a biological context. Methods: The literature was reviewed based on predefined criteria. Results: The identified genes largely fall into functions linking immune response with tissue repair. The genes

The role of SERPIN citrullination in thrombosis
Aberrant protein citrullination is associated with many pathologies; however, the specific effects of this modification remain unknown. We have previously demonstrated that serine protease inhibitors (SERPINs) are highly citrullinated in rheumatoid ...

Inflammatory and Immunological Basis of Periodontal Diseases
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.

Expression of maspin in benign and malignant salivary gland tumors: An immunohistochemical study
Context: Maspin is a novel serine protease inhibitor (serpin) with multifaceted tumor-suppressive activities. It was originally identified in normal human breast myoepithelial cells and shows variable expression in different types of cancer cells. Maspin

Biomarkers Correlating With the Development of Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma From Leukoplakia
ABSTRACT Background We assessed protein biomarkers expressed in oral leukoplakia (OL) that are associated with the risk of transformation into oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Methods Tissue sections of OL transforming into OSCC (leuko‐ca), the corresponding OSCC and OL that did not progress to OSCC (leuko‐nonca) were analyzed with global relative ...

AbstractPeriodontitis is a complex inflammatory disease in which the host genome, in conjunction with extrinsic factors, determines susceptibility and progression. Genetic predisposition is the strongest risk factor in the first decades of life. As people age, chronic exposure to the periodontal microbiome puts a strain on the proper maintenance of ...

Understanding exosomes in diabetic wound healing
Abstract Background Diabetic wounds signify a major complication of diabetes mellitus, characterized by chronic inflammation, compromised angiogenesis, and high risk of infection, amputation, and mortality. Contemporary therapies remain limited in efficacy and durability.
