Anti-Inflammatory Cytokines in Peri-Implant Soft Tissues: A Preliminary Study on Humans Using CDNA Microarray Technology

Abstract: The mucosa around implants and the gingiva around teeth respond to plaque formation with the development of an inflammatory lesion which has similar magnitude and histological features. Different cell types in inflamed and healthy periodontal and peri-implant tissues are capable of producing a variety of important pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines and growth factors which mediate the host response. The aim of this study is to compare the expression levels of anti-inflammatory cytokines detectabl… Show more

“…Since lack of published reference values prevents from discriminating which outliers represent errors or an actual enhanced response in some individuals, outliers were not discarded opting for a non-parametric test, which is least influenced by outliers, for data analysis. Lastly, since our study focused on CRP changes, the overall status of the inflammation response following ACL surgery has not been exhaustively described (17)(18)(22)(23).…”

“…ESR is elevated when a local or systemic inflammation is present regardless of its cause. CRP is an acute-phase plasma protein increasing in bacterial infection and extensive tissue damage (17)(18). It is analysed in venous blood collected in a serum-separating tube according to various methods.…”
