Research Abstract |
Polymorphism analyses using the invader method were performed (case control studies). From 12 hospitals, 622 blood samples were collected : 172 aggressive periodontitis (AgP) and the 178 controls, and 147 chronic periodontitis (CP) and the 125 controls. When AgP and the controls was compared, significant differences were detected in FcaR56T/C and MMP-3(-1171)5A/6A(-/T). When CP and the controls was compared, significant differences were detected in IL-1(+4845)G/T. In these SNPs, there were no SNPs showing both differences concerning gene distribution and allele frequencies. Further examinations are necessary to clarify these points. On the other hand, several interesting results concerning SNPs were obtained from the investigator's laboratories as follows. 1) In gingival overgrowth patients, a2 integrin +807 polymorphism was found, indicating the +807C allele is one of the genetic risk factors for drug-induced gingival overgrowth. 2) The combination of stimulatory FcyIIA and inhibitory FcyRIIB genotypes may increase susceptibility to SLE and periodontitis in the Japanese population. 3) Salivary AST, ALT and LDH levels reflect inflammation and destruction of periodontal tissue, suggesting the clinical useful markers following periodontal therapy but IL-1A+4845 alleles may not influence clinical parameters. 4) The mutant (A115V) TNSALP gene produced the defective alkaline phosphatase enzyme and it could be recessively transmitted and be a disease-causing mutation of the adult-type hypophosphatasia 5) Mannnose-binding lectin (MBL) gene mutation and smoking would be involved in the excerbation of aggressive periodontitis, via gene-environmental interaction.
