Patterns of gene expression and cytokine production indicate that Gram-negative periodontal bacteria or their LPS might play a role in triggering TLR2 and/or TLR4, and be of importance for the immune responses in periodontitis.

A remarkable difference in miRNA profiles betweenperiodontal diseased and healthy gingiva implicates a probable close relationship between miRNAs and periodontal inflammation.
MicroRNA-146 inhibits pro-inflammatory cytokine secretion through IL-1 receptor-associated kinase 1 in human gingival fibroblasts

The data suggest that miRNA-146 inhibits pro-inflammatory cytokine secretion through IRAK1 in HGFs, which indicates that mi RNA-146 functions as a negative regulator of periodontal inflammation.
Initial comparison of proteomic profiles of whole unstimulated saliva obtained from generalized aggressive periodontitis patients and healthy control subjects.
Comparing the proteomic profile of whole unstimulated saliva of subjects with generalized aggressive periodontitis with that of healthy volunteers revealed at least 11 differential proteins, which might be helpful to aid understanding of the etiology of GAgP.

Adjunctive effect of photodynamic therapy to scaling and root planing in the treatment of chronic periodontitis.
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical effects of photodynamic therapy (PDT) for scaling and root planing (SRP) in the treatment of chronic periodontitis.

The pattern of gene expression indicates that pathogens may trigger TLR4 signaling and cause periodontitis, and it is shown that the upregulation of IL-6 by lipopolysaccharide treatment wasTLR4-dependent.

It is shown that Tak1 protein is expressed in both the epithelium and mesenchyme of the developing palatal shelves and functions to regulate tongue development by controlling Fgf10 expression and could represent a candidate gene for mutation in human PRS clefting.
