Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have first reported that the significantly elevated expression of Amyloid beta (A4) precursor protein (APP) transcript levels in human periodontitis-affected gingival tissues. It was also identified that the APP-expressing cells in inflamed gingival tissues were mainly macrophages (Archs Oral Biol 2014). Secondary, significantly upregulated genes including MD-2, CD14, IL-1beta, IL-8 and CXCL-9, which belongs to toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling pathway were also found in periodontitis-affected gingival tissues. It was reported and published in Opn J Stomatol 2014.
