Periodontitis is an infection-driven inflammatory disease, which is characterized by gingival
inflammation and bone loss. Periodontitis is associated with various systemic diseases …

Periodontal diseases usually refer to common inflammatory disorders known as gingivitis
and periodontitis, which are caused by a pathogenic microbiota in the subgingival biofilm …

Periodontitis is one of the most common human inflammatory diseases, yet the mechanisms
that drive immunopathology and could be therapeutically targeted are not well defined …

The pathogenesis of periodontitis involves a complex immune/inflammatory cascade that is
initiated by the bacteria of the oral biofilm that forms naturally on the teeth. The susceptibility …

Interleukin‐17 (also known as interleukin‐17A) is a key cytokine that links T‐cell activation to
neutrophil mobilization and activation. As such, interleukin‐17 can mediate protective innate …

Recent studies have uncovered novel mechanisms underlying the breakdown of periodontal
host–microbe homeostasis, which can precipitate dysbiosis and periodontitis in susceptible …

In their classic 1976 paper, Page & Schroeder described the histopathologic events and the
types of myeloid cells and lymphocytes involved in the initiation and progression of …

Alveolar bone is a unique osseous tissue due to the proximity of dental plaque biofilms.
Periodontal health and homeostasis are mediated by a balanced host immune response to …

Periodontal diseases (PD) are chronic infectious inflammatory diseases characterized by the
destruction of tooth-supporting structures, being the presence of periodontopathogens …

Aging is linked to greater susceptibility to chronic inflammatory diseases, several of which,
including periodontitis, involve neutrophil-mediated tissue injury. Here we found that aging …
