Aim Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease that destroys both soft and hard periodontal
tissues. However, a complex periodontal cytokine network remains unclear. This systematic …

Aim Tumour necrosis factor‐alpha (TNF‐α) plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of
periodontal disease. TNF‐α gene polymorphisms can influence the TNF‐α production. Many …

Background Chronic periodontitis (CP), defines as destruction of the supporting tissues of
the teeth and resorption of the alveolar bone. It is widespread in human populations and …

The aim of this study was to determine whether tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and
interleukin-6 (IL-6) promoter polymorphisms confer susceptibility to periodontitis in ethnically …

Host genetic predispositions to dysregulated immune response can influence the
development of the aggressive form of periodontitis (AgP) through susceptibility to oral …

No clear consensus has been reached regarding the association of IL-10 polymorphisms
and periodontitis. Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis of case–control studies and a …

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection can result in a number of different clinical conditions,
including asymptomatic HBV carriers to chronic hepatitis and primary hepatocellular …

Background Periodontitis is a multi-factorial disease and several risk-factors such as
infections, inflammatory responses, oral hygiene, smoke, aging and individual …

Genetic variations observed in cytokines affect periodontitis susceptibility. The aim of this
study was to investigate interleukin (IL)-6 (-174) and IL-10 (-597) gene polymorphisms in …

Objective Chronic periodontitis (CP), aggressive periodontitis (AP), and peri-implantitis (PI)
are chronic inflammatory diseases. Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-a) is an effective immune …
