Receptor Activator of Nuclear Factor‐Kappa B Ligand/Osteoprotegerin Ratio in Sites of Chronic Periodontitis of Subjects With Poorly and Well‐Controlled Type 2 Diabetes

Abstract: RANKL/OPG ratios in untreated and treated periodontitis sites may be negatively influenced by poor glycemic control in subjects with type 2 diabetes.

“…The majority of studies have focused on single or a limited number of mediators and most have investigated pro-inflammatory cytokines (Table 2). There is a possible role for T2DM in modulating the oral levels of receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligand (RANKL)/ osteoprotegerin (OPG) in chronic periodontitis (Santos et al 2010a, Vieira Ribeiro et al 2011. With the exception of IL-8 (CXCL8), few studies have investigated the role of chemokines.…”

“…However, although there is a substantial role for altered balance of Th1/Th2 cells in the pathogenesis and progression of periodontitis, there is no direct information about the role of specific T-cell subsets in periodontitis in patients with diabetes. Significantly, Th17 and Th1 cells have a role in regulation of bone resorption and are a source of cytokines such as RANKL and IL-17, which are elevated in periodontitis patients with diabetes (Santos et al 2010a, b, Vieira Ribeiro et al 2011; the role of these T-cell subsets in periodontal pathogenesis in diabetic patients is therefore worthy of investigation. In this regard, there is preliminary evidence for an association between glycaemic control and IL-4 (Th1 cytokine) and IL-17 levels in GCF from periodontitis patients with diabetes (Santos et al 2010b, Vieira Ribeiro et al 2011 and an immunohistochemical study recently provided evidence for elevated Th17 and T reg cells in patients with poorly controlled T2DM and periodontitis as compared to patients with periodontitis alone .…”

“…Increased RANKL/OPG ratios and TNF-α levels that contribute to greater bone resorption are observed in diabetes. In human subjects, the ratio of RANKL/OPG and TNF-α levels are increased in inadequately controlled diabetics [42]. In diabetic's fatty acid levels may also add to augmented osteoclastogenesis.…”

“…6 Furthermore, previous studies described how uncontrolled type 2 diabetes patients with chronic periodontitis expressed higher RANKL and osteoprotegerin (OPG) than both control group patients and healthy individuals. 7,8 The aim of this study was to determine the correlation between RANKL expression of osteoblast and the number of osteoclast in alveolar bone of diabetic models under different mechanical force applications. From the application of varying mechanical forces, the optimal force that can be applied during the orthodontic treatment of diabetics could be estimated.…”
