Objectives The aim of this work is to investigate the biological effects of IQOS smoking on human gingival fibroblasts and human keratinocytes analysing cell viability, morphology, migration, apoptosis and cell cycle. Background Electronic cigarettes and tobacco heating systems have been marketed to reduce smoking damages caused by combustion. Meth...

Objective: We studied cytokines in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) in a cross-sectional population-based cohort of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients ≥61 years of age with and without a diagnosis of periodontitis. Background data: Earlier studies on cytokines in GCF in RA patients have not given clear results. Methods: In a population-based cross-s...

Background and Objective Long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs) can act as competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) to compete for micro‐RNAs (miRNAs) in regulation of downstream genes, various biological functions and diseases. Yet, the expression and regulation of lncRNAs in periodontitis are not fully understood. The objective of the study was to identify pot...

Objectives Vitamin D3 is known to activate osteogenic differentiation of human periodontal ligament stromal cells (hPDLSCs). Recently, inflammatory stimuli were shown to inhibit the transcriptional activity of hPDLSCs, but their effect on vitamin D3‐induced osteogenic differentiation is not known. The present study aimed to investigate whether the ...

Salivary S100P mRNA could be a reliable biomarker for OSCC detection, regardless of the presence of chronic periodontitis. The presence of chronic periodontitis could significantly affect the levels of the other six mRNAs, and negatively influence reliability for using them as biomarkers for oral cancer detection.
