Chronic Periodontitis (CP) is a common inflammatory disease affects supporting tissues of the teeth and can lead to tooth loss. The objective of this study was to determine the relationship between polymorphisms in the IL-28B gene and chronic periodontitis in an Iranian population.
Two hundred and ten CP patients and one hundred healthy subjects were enrolled in the present case-control study. The rs12979860 and rs8099917 SNPs were identified using RFLP and T-ARMS-PCR methods respectively.
SNP analysis revealed that the G allele of rs8099917 SNP and T allele of rs12979860 SNP increased susceptibility to CP compared to the A allele and C allele (p < 0.0001, OR = 2.712, CI = 1.783-4.126; p < 0.0001, OR = 2.538, CI = 1.784-3.613 respectively). In addition, the CT/GT, TT/GG and TT/GT haplotypes were predominant in CP patients and significantly associated with the increased risk of CP.
IL-28B polymorphisms may be useful predictive factors for chronic periodontitis and correlated to the susceptibility to CP infection in our population.
慢性牙周炎(CP)是一种常见的炎症性疾病,影响牙齿的支持组织,可导致牙齿脱落。本研究旨在确定伊朗人群中 IL-28B 基因多态性与慢性牙周炎之间的关系。
本病例对照研究纳入了 210 名 CP 患者和 100 名健康对照者。分别采用 RFLP 和 T-ARMS-PCR 方法检测 rs12979860 和 rs8099917 两个 SNP。
SNP 分析显示,与 rs8099917 SNP 的 A 等位基因和 rs12979860 SNP 的 C 等位基因相比,G 等位基因和 T 等位基因增加了 CP 的易感性(p<0.0001,OR=2.712,CI=1.783-4.126;p<0.0001,OR=2.538,CI=1.784-3.613)。此外,CP 患者中 CT/GT、TT/GG 和 TT/GT 单倍型更为常见,与 CP 的发病风险增加显著相关。
IL-28B 多态性可能是慢性牙周炎的有用预测因子,并与本人群 CP 感染的易感性相关。
