Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The effect of anti-inflammatory cytokine, IL-10, on inhibition of periodontitis was analyzed. Higher level of IL-10 gene expression was observed in human periodontitis tissues compare to gingivitis tissues. Ligature-induced periodontitis mice model demonstrated both gingival inflammation and bone resorption. Intraperitoneal injection of IL-10 but not direct injection of IL-10 into gingiva protected alveolar bone resorption in this mice model. However systemic IL-10 had no effect on inflammatory cytokine level in gingival tissues. Not only periodontal inflammation but also systemic responses may control periodontal bone resorption.
