Abstract
The evidence of a connection between the peripheral inflammatory processes and neurodegenerative diseases of the central nervous system is becoming more apparent. This review of the related literature highlights the most recent clinical, epidemiological, and in vitro studies trying to investigate possible connections between periodontal bacteria and the onset and progression of Alzheimer's disease. This review was conducted by searching databases such as PubMed and Scopus using keywords or combinations such as Alzheimer's Disease AND periodontal or dementia AND periodontitis OR periodontal. After eliminating overlaps and screening the articles not related to these issues, we identified 1088 records and proceeded to the selection of articles for an evaluation of the associative assumptions. The hypothesis suggested by the authors and confirmed by the literature is that the bacterial load and the inflammatory process linked to periodontal disease can intensify inflammation at the level of the central nervous system, favoring the occurrence of the disease. The analysis of the literature highlights how periodontal disease can directly contribute to the peripheral inflammatory environment by the introduction of periodontal or indirect pathogenic bacteria and proinflammatory cytokines locally produced at the periodontal level following bacterial colonization of periodontal defects.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease of the supporting tissue around teeth commonly caused by gram-negative bacterial infections. Interleukin (IL)-1β, a cytokine involved in host immune and inflammatory responses, is known to induce the activation of various intracellular signaling pathways. One of these signaling mechanisms involves the regulation of gene expression by activation of transcription factors (AP-1 and NF-κB). These transcription factors are controlled by mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), which increase cytokine and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) expression. We examined the preventive effects of reversine, a 2,6-disubstituted purine derivative, on cytokine and MMP-3 expression in human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs) stimulated with IL-lβ. STUDY DESIGN Western blot analyses were performed to verify the activities of MAPK, p65, p50, and c-Jun and the expression of MMPs in IL-1β-stimulated HGFs. Cytokine and MMP-3 expression in IL-1β-stimulated HGFs was measured by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS Reversine decreased the IL-1β-induced expression of proinflammatory cytokines (IL-6 and IL-8) and MMP-3 in HGFs. Furthermore, the mechanism underlying the effects of reversine involved the suppression of IL-1β-stimulated MAPK activation and AP-1 activation. CONCLUSION Reversine inhibits IL-1β-induced MMP and cytokine expression via inhibition of MAPK/AP-1 activation and ROS generation. Therefore, we suggest that reversine may be an effective therapeutic candidate for preventing periodontitis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In periodontitis, genetics and smoking play important roles in host immune system response. The aim of this study is to determine whether the genetic background of initial periodontitis and caries could be detected using an active matrix metalloproteinase (aMMP)-8 chairside test in Finnish adolescents. METHODS Forty-seven participants gave approval for analysis of both oral fluid collection and DNA. An aMMP-8 chairside test was performed on participants (adolescents aged 15 to 17 years), and full-mouth clinical parameters of oral health were assessed including periodontal, oral mucosal, and caries status in Eastern Finland from 2014 to 2015. DNA was extracted from oral fluid samples and genotyped for 71 polymorphisms in 29 candidate genes for periodontitis. Results were analyzed using a logistic regression model. P values were corrected for multiple testing using false discovery rate (<0.05). RESULTS aMMP-8 chairside test positivity and three or more ≥4 mm pockets were associated with vitamin D receptor (VDR) (rs2228570, P = 0.002, q = 0.04) and MMP3 (rs520540, rs639752, rs679620, P = 0.0009, 0.003, 0.003, q = 0.04, respectively). None of the other single-nucleotide polymorphisms studied showed a significant association with the aMMP-8 chairside test and at least one caries lesion positivity. CONCLUSION Genetic polymorphisms of MMP3 and VDR are linked to initial periodontitis in Finnish adolescents, and the aMMP-8 chairside test can eventually detect initial periodontitis in young patients with predisposing genetic background.

Abstract
Several studies have addressed cytokine gene polymorphisms and their possible associations with periodontitis. We examined the association between salivary anti- and pro-inflammatory mediator polymorphisms and initial periodontitis in Finnish adolescents, taking into account the effect of smoking. Salivary samples of 93 clinically examined adolescents from Eastern Finland were analyzed. Their oral health and smoking habits were recorded. Periodontal probing depth (PPD), and bleeding on probing (BOP) at four sites per tooth, root calculus (RC), and visible plaque index (VPI) were recorded from the index teeth. Salivary MMP-8 median values were assessed. The sites with ≥4 mm PD were categorized as follows: PPD1 = one or more ≥4 mm pocket, PPD2 = two or more ≥4 mm pockets, and PPD3 = three or more ≥4 mm pockets. Genomic DNA was extracted from 300 μl of the saliva samples by genomic QIAamp® DNA Blood Mini Kit and genotyped for polymorphisms. Genetic variants for genotyping were selected from the following genes of interest: S100A8, FCGR2A, FCGR2B, IL10, MMP8, MMP3, MMP13, VDR, TLR4, MMP2, MPO, ELANE, IL1A, IL1B, IL1RN, CD28, MMP9, DDX39B, NFKBIL1, LTA, TNF, SOD2, IL6, TLR4, TIMP1, and SYN1. After false discovery rate control (FDR), polymorphisms in MMP3 (rs679620, rs520540, rs639752), CD28 (rs3116496), and VDR (rs2228570) associated (FDR q < 0.05) with deepened periodontal pockets. Smoking did not affect the results. Genetic polymorphisms of pro-inflammatory mediators MMP3, CD28, and VDR seem to link to initial periodontitis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study is to determine whether baseline salivary inflammatory biomarkers could discriminate between different clinical levels of disease and/or detect clinical changes over a 3-week stent-induced biofilm overgrowth (SIBO) period. METHODS A total of 168 participants were enrolled in a 21-day experimental gingivitis investigation and grouped according to clinical measures of periodontal status of health and diseased individuals representing each of five biofilm gingival interface (BGI) periodontal groups: 1) health, all probing depth (PD) <3 mm and bleeding on probing (BOP) <10%; 2) gingivitis, all PD <3 mm and BOP ≥10%; 3) periodontitis (P)1, ≥1 site with PD >3 mm and BOP ≤10%; 4) P2, ≥1 site with PD >3 mm and BOP >10% but ≤50%; and 5) P3, ≥1 site with PD >3 mm and BOP >50%. Stents were used to prevent plaque removal during brushing over one maxillary and one mandibular posterior dental sextant for 21 days. Clinical periodontal parameters and unstimulated saliva were collected at screening, baseline, and each week during SIBO. Saliva samples were assessed for levels of 13 different biomarkers by multiplex immunoassay. RESULTS Higher salivary levels of interleukin (IL)-1β, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-3, MMP-8, MMP-9, and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) were found in diseased groups compared with the healthy group at baseline. Conversely, higher IL-1 receptor antagonist (ra) levels were found in healthy patients at baseline. In addition, during SIBO, MMP-1, tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase (TIMP)-1, and TIMP-2 levels increased across all participant groups. A stepwise linear regression model using all salivary biomarkers demonstrated that, at baseline, increased IL-1ra (P = 0.004) and IL-6 (P = 0.009) were significantly associated with change in PDs during SIBO. CONCLUSIONS In summary, this investigation supports salivary levels of IL-1ra and IL-6 as potential indicators for PD changes during induced gingival inflammation. In addition, participants from the BGI-P3 group (severe periodontitis) demonstrated elevated baseline levels of IL-1β, MMP-3, MMP-8, MMP-9, and NGAL compared with the other study groups, strengthening the relevance of participants' biologic phenotype on expression of salivary biomarkers.

Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinase-3 (MMP-3) over-expression is associated with tissue destruction in the context of chronic inflammation. Previous studies showed that IL-4 inhibits induction of MMP-3 by IL-1β, and suggested that AP-1 might be involved. Here we show that IL-1 induced binding of transcription factor AP-1 to the MMP-3 promoter consists primarily of c-Jun, JunB, and c-Fos and that binding of c-Jun and c-Fos is inhibited by the combination of cytokines while binding of Jun B is not. Mutation of the AP-1 site in the MMP-3 promoter decreased the ability of IL-4 to inhibit its transcription in transfected MG-63 cells. Western blotting showed that both cytokines activate Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), but with somewhat different kinetics, and that activation of JNK by both cytokines individually is inhibited by the combination. These results indicate that IL-4 inhibition of MMP-3 expression is associated with reduction of IL-1 induced binding of active forms of the AP-1 dimer, while less active JunB-containing dimers remain, and suggest that these changes are associated with decreased activation of JNK.

Abstract
Background: Initial research has shown a positive correlation between the severity of periodontal disease and matrix metalloproteinase-3 (MMP-3) concentrations in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF). However, there are no enough reports to correlate the MMP-3 concentrations in GCF in periodontal health, disease and after treatment. Hence, the present study is to estimate the levels of MMP-3 in GCF in periodontal health, disease and to evaluate the effect of periodontal therapy on MMP-3 concentrations in GCF. Materials and Methods: Periodontal examination and collection of GCF by extracrevicular method was performed in 30 subjects selected randomly and categorized into three groups. Group I (Healthy, n=10), group II (Chronic periodontitis, n=20) and group III (After treatment group, n=20). Scaling and root planing (SRP) was performed and GCF was collected after 8 weeks of treatment. MMP-3 levels were estimated in GCF samples using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results: MMP-3 was detected in all samples. Highest mean MMP-3 concentrations in GCF were obtained for group II (7.490 ng/ml), while the lowest concentrations were seen in group I (0.344 ng/ml) and group III (2.129 ng/ml). This suggests that MMP-3 levels in GCF increases proportionally with the progression of periodontal disease and decreases after treatment. Conclusion: There is a substantial increase in the concentrations of MMP-3 as periodontal disease progresses. Since MMP-3 levels in GCF are positively correlated with gingival index, probing pocket depth and clinical attachment level, MMP-3 may be considered as a “novel biomarker” in periodontal disease progression. However, controlled, longitudinal studies are needed to confirm this possibility.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of host-derived proteinases reported to mediate multiple functions associated with periodontal destruction and inflammation. Most of the existing data have been gathered from adults with chronic periodontitis. The purpose of this study was to determine the MMP levels in a cohort of African American children with and without aggressive periodontitis. METHODS Gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) was collected in a cohort of 44 African American children, 7 to 19 years of age, with and without aggressive periodontitis (AgP) and compared to healthy unrelated children and to adults with chronic periodontitis (CP). GCF volume was determined with a calibrated gingival fluid meter. The samples were assayed for MMP-1, -2, -3, -8, -9, -12, and -13 using fluorimetric substrates. RESULTS The MMP levels from diseased sites in the subjects with AgP were statistically higher (P <0.05) in almost all instances than those associated with the unrelated controls or with the subjects with CP. MMP-8 was significantly elevated in the diseased sites of the children with AgP relative to non-diseased sites in the same children (P = 0.002), as well as the siblings, non-diseased controls, and subjects with CP (P < or =0.0001). There was no positive correlation between probing depth and any MMP level. CONCLUSIONS MMP levels were elevated in AgP sites relative to non-diseased sites in the same subjects, in siblings, and in unrelated controls. MMPs associated with the AgP sites in children were generally elevated compared to an adult cohort with a history of CP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Volumetric features of gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) are under the influence of many factors, including sampling variables. Standardizing such factors may enable a more precise methodology. Thus, analysis of the possible impact of the clinical periodontal status and the distinct location of sampling sites on fluid volume was performed. METHODS Clinical parameters were recorded, and fluid samples were obtained from 931 maxillary sites. The potential site-specific volumetric differences among healthy, gingivitis, and periodontitis sites; between multirooted or single-rooted teeth and mesio-buccal or disto-buccal sampling sites; and the correlations between volume and clinical measures were statistically analyzed. RESULTS Although volume increased in a disease-related pattern (healthy < gingivitis < periodontitis; P <0.05), the distribution range of volume was widespread, with prominent overlaps between the different clinical periodontal conditions. Multirooted teeth presented more fluid volume, and even mesio-buccal or disto-buccal sites exhibited some volumetric differences (P <0.05). Constant correlations between volume and clinical parameters could be observed only at gingivitis sites (P <0.05). CONCLUSIONS The spectrum of fluid volume is disease related in general. However, the wide range of volumetric distribution, the site-specific nature, and the clear impact of the distinct sampling site on volume are important volumetric features of this biologic fluid. Whenever possible, standardization of the extent of probing depth, degree of gingival inflammation, and distinct sampling area is likely to improve the reliability of GCF methodology.

Interleukin-4 inhibition of interleukin-1-induced expression of matrix metalloproteinase-3 (MMP-3) is independent of lipoxygenase and PPARgamma activation in human gingival fibroblasts. BMC Mol Biol 2007; 8:12. [PMID: 17319946 PMCID: PMC1810308 DOI: 10.1186/1471-2199-8-12] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2006] [Accepted: 02/23/2007] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Interleukin 4 (IL-4) has been shown to suppress interleukin-1 (IL-1) induced expression of matrix metalloproteinase-3 (MMP-3) in human synovial and gingival fibroblasts, but the mechanism of suppression has not been determined. Activators of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPARγ) have been shown to inhibit cytokine induced expression of MMPs in other cell types, and IL-4 has been shown to activate PPARγ by stimulating production of ligands through the lipoxygenase pathway. It has been suggested that PPARγ may inhibit expression of MMPs by competing with transcription factor AP-1 for binding to a putative composite binding element in the promoters. The objective of this study was to determine whether the suppressive effects of IL-4 on the IL-1 induced expression of MMP-3 involve activation of lipoxygenase and/or PPARγ. Results Western blotting revealed the presence of PPARγ in nuclear extract of HGF. IL-1 induced binding of nuclear extract to the putative composite PPRE/AP-1 site was diminished in the presence of pioglitazone, but there was no evidence of any change in the composition of the retarded complexes, and no evidence of PPARγ binding to this site. Nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA), a non-selective lipoxygenase inhibitor, and MK886, a specific inhibitor of 5-lipoxygenase, induced MMP-3 expression synergistically with IL-1. However IL-4 was still able to inhibit MMP-3 expression in the presence of NDGA or MK886 and IL-1. Activation of PPARγ with pioglitazone not only failed to inhibit IL-1 induced expression of MMP-3 mRNA, but rather super-induced MMP-3 in the presence of IL-1. PPARγ antagonist GW9662 failed to abolish the suppressive effects of IL-4. Another PPARγ activator, 15-deoxy-Delta12,14prostaglandin J2 (15dPGJ2), also super-induced MMP-3 mRNA, and this was due at least in part to increased transcription. Conclusion IL-4 suppression of IL-1-induced MMP-3 expression in HGF is independent of lipoxygenase activity and activation of PPARγ. Super-induction of MMP-3 by pioglitazone may have important implications for patients using pioglitazone to treat type II diabetes in the presence of chronic inflammation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE The study aimed to determine whether matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) in gingival crevice fluid could serve as prognostic factors for the progression of periodontitis in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) -positive patients. Activated inflammatory cells produce inflammatory mediators, which stimulate the production of MMPs and their inhibitors. It is likely that the compromised immune system contributes to the pathogenesis of periodontitis in HIV-positive patients. METHODS Clinical measurements including gingival index, plaque index, bleeding index, probing depth, attachment loss, and gingival crevice fluid samples were taken from two healthy sites (including sites with gingival recession, gingival index = 0; probing depth < or = 3 mm; attachment loss < or = 2 mm), three gingivitis sites (gingival index > 0; probing depth < or = 3 mm; attachment loss = 0) and three periodontitis sites (gingival index > 0; probing depth > or = 5 mm; attachment loss > or = 3 mm) of each of the 35 patients at baseline visits and 6-month visits by means of paper strips. Gingival crevice fluid levels of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 were determined by sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. RESULTS The mean amounts of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 in the gingivitis and periodontitis sites sites were significantly higher than in the healthy sites (P < 0.0001). The progressing site was defined as a site that had 2 mm or more attachment loss during the 6-month study period. Gingival crevice fluid levels of MMP-9 were significantly correlated with probing depth, attachment loss, TIMP-1, age, smoking pack years, and viral load values at baseline and 6-month visits (0.0001 < P < 0.001). TIMP-1 levels were only correlated with CD4, viral load, attachment loss, and MMP-9 (0.001 < P < 0.01). Repeated measures analysis of 11 active sites vs. 269 inactive sites indicated that MMP-9 and TIMP-1 levels were significantly higher in active sites than in inactive sites (P < 0.0001). These data indicate that sites with high ginigval crevice fluid levels of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 in HIV-positive patients are at significantly greater risk for progression of periodontitis.

Abstract
Elastin peptides were previously reported to increase MMP expression in several cell types. We found binding of these peptides to their receptors led to enhanced MMP-3 and MMP-1 expression, but not activation, in human gingival fibroblasts cultured on plastic dishes. We hypothesized that these peptides, in a more physiological environment, might additionally trigger an MMP-3/MMP-1 activation cascade, leading to matrix lysis, as occurs in periodontitis. To test this hypothesis, we used contracted and attached lattices as gingival lamina propria equivalents. In such 3D models, supplementation of elastin peptides and plasminogen triggered an MMP-3/MMP-1 activation cascade and significant down-regulation of TIMPs production, further leading to intense collagen degradation. We propose that elastolysis, as occurs in periodontitis, potentiates collagenolysis, thus promoting disease progression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Various compounds have been detected in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) as indicators of periodontal disease activity. Therefore, the analysis of GCF may be especially beneficial for diagnosing current periodontal status and addressing the effects of treatment. Moreover, the identification of new markers in GCF may also contribute to elucidating novel mechanisms involved in periodontal disease. This study sought novel marker proteins specific to chronic periodontitis by profiling cytokines in GCF using a cytokine antibody array system. METHODS Human cytokine array V, which detects 79 cytokines on one membrane, was used to determine the profile of cytokines in GCF from seven subjects with chronic periodontitis and seven subjects with healthy periodontia. The profile was exposed to x-ray film and quantified using image analysis software. Healthy and diseased sites were compared statistically. RESULTS We detected 10 cytokines in periodontally healthy sites and 36 cytokines in periodontally diseased sites. Interleukin-8 (IL-8) and transforming growth factor-beta 2 (TGF-beta2) were detected at high levels in healthy and diseased subjects. There were significant differences between healthy and diseased subjects in the levels of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-2 (TIMP-2), tumor necrosis factor-beta (TNF-beta), growth-related oncogene (GRO), interferon-inducible protein-10 (IP-10), angiogenin (Ang), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3), osteoprotegerin (OPG), epidermal growth factor (EGF), glial-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), pulmonary and activation-regulated chemokine (PARC), oncostatin M (OSM), fibroblast growth factor-4 (FGF-4), IL-16, homologous to lymphotoxins (LIGHT), and placenta growth factor (PlGF). Of these, the newly detected cytokines were GRO, Ang, IGFBP-3, GDNF, PARC, OSM, FGF-4, IL-16, LIGHT, and PlGF. CONCLUSIONS In this study, we detected several cytokines in GCF using a cytokine antibody array system, including both inflammatory cytokines and various growth factors. Therefore, periodontal disease may participate in the wound healing process and in tissue destruction via the inflammatory process. Our results suggest that the quantification of these cytokines in GCF provides useful information for the diagnosis of periodontal disease status.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Inflammatory and immune reactions raised in response to periodontopathogens are thought to trigger periodontal tissue destruction. We therefore investigated the expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and the osteoclastogenic factor RANKL (receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappaB ligand), their respective inhibitors TIMPs (tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases) and OPG (osteoprotegerin) and their possible correlation with the expression of inflammatory and regulatory cytokines in the course of experimental periodontal disease in mice. METHODS We characterized the time course of leukocyte migration and alveolar bone loss in C57BL/6 mice infected with Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RealTime PCR) and ELISA were performed to determine the expression of MMPs, TIMPs, RANKL, OPG and cathepsin K, interleukin-1beta, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interferon-gamma, interleukin-12, interleukin-4 and interleukin-10 in periodontal tissue samples harvested throughout the course of experimental disease. RESULTS Oral inoculation of A. actinomycetemcomitans results in an intense and widespread migration of leukocytes to the gingival tissues, besides marked alveolar bone resorption. Our data also demonstrate two distinct patterns of MMP/TIMP and RANKL/OPG expression in the course of experimental periodontal disease. The expression of MMPs (MMP-1, 2 and 9) and RANKL was correlated with the expression of interleukin-1beta, tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interferon-gamma, in a time period characterized by the intense increase of inflammatory reaction and alveolar bone loss. On the other hand, interleukin-4 and interleukin-10 were associated with higher expression of TIMPs (TIMP 1, 2 and 3) and OPG, with a lower expression of MMPs and RANKL, and with reduced rates of increase of cellular infiltration in periodontal tissues and alveolar bone loss. CONCLUSIONS It is possible that the pattern of cytokines produced in periodontal tissues determines the progression and the severity of experimental periodontal disease, controlling the breakdown of soft and bone tissues through the balance between MMPs/TIMP and RANKL/OPG expression in gingival tissues.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To review the biological mechanisms and clinical utility of therapeutic modulation of the host response in the management of periodontal diseases. MATERIAL AND METHODS A search of MEDLINE-PubMed was performed up to and including December 2004. The search was limited to in vitro, experimental animal and clinical studies published in English. The selection criteria included all levels of available evidence: systematic reviews, randomised-controlled clinical trials, controlled clinical trials, prospective and retrospective cohort studies and case reports of human and experimental animal studies. RESULTS Six targets for non-microbial chemotherapeutic intervention were identified. Clinical trials have demonstrated the ability of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs to slow periodontal disease progression. However, recently reported serious adverse effects preclude the use of cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors as an adjunct to periodontal therapy. Adjunctive use of subantimicrobial dose doxycycline to non-surgical periodontal therapy is beneficial in the management of chronic periodontitis over 12 months. Controversial data exist on the effects of bisphosphonate administration as an adjunct to periodontal therapy. Evidence on modulation of other host mediators including lipoxins, cytokines and nitric oxide synthase is limited to animal research. CONCLUSION After validation in long-term clinical trials, adjunctive host modulation therapy may prove advantageous in the management of periodontal diseases.

Abstract
The extra-cellular matrix of the gingival tissue plays an important role in the homeostasis of dental implants. In this work we have studied immunohistochemically the distribution of collagen I-III-IV-V, tenascin, metalloproteinases (MMP) 1-3-8-13 and TIMP-1 in three groups of patients: (1) subjects with natural teeth (healthy periodontal tissue), (2) subjects with normal peri-implant mucosa and (3) subjects with clinically evident peri-implantitis. The immunolabelling for collagen I-III-IV showed a similar pattern in all three groups. The labelling for collagen V increased in lamina propria of healthy peri-implant tissue and peri-implantitis. Tenascin immunolabelling in healthy and peri-implant tissues was scattered in lamina propria. In peri-implantitis tenascin immunolabelling increased mainly near to the basal lamina. The MMP-1-3-8 and TIMP-1 immunolabelling were very faint and localized in the stroma in all three groups. In healthy and peri-implant tissues MMP-13 immunolabelling was found in the lamina propria whereas in peri-implantitis MMP-13 immunolabelling was also in epithelium. On the whole, these data suggest that in the extracellular matrix of peri-implantitis there are alterations of collagen V, tenascin and MMP-13 patterns.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of phase I periodontal treatment on gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) levels of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-3 and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinase (TIMP)-1. METHODS Plaque index, gingival index, pocket depth and clinical attachment loss were recorded and GCF samples were collected from 20 chronic periodontitis (CP) patients and 20 periodontally healthy controls (C) before treatment. CP patients received phase I periodontal treatment and all clinical parameters were recorded and GCF samples were collected once more after treatment. Assays were performed by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS All of the clinical parameters improved significantly after the therapy (p<0.05). Baseline GCF levels of MMP-3 were significantly higher than C and that level was reduced significantly by treatment compared with baseline levels (p<0.05). Baseline GCF levels of TIMP-1 were lower than post-treatment levels and C (p<0.05). GCF levels of TIMP-1 increased significantly by treatment compared with baseline levels (p<0.05). CONCLUSION This study shows that the clinical improvements after phase I periodontal therapy are accompanied by reduction in MMP-3 and increasing in TIMP-1 GCF levels.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), which exerts its actions via EP receptors (EP1, EP2, EP3, and EP4), is a bioactive metabolite produced by cyclooxygenase (COX)-1 and/or COX-2 from arachidonic acid. In the present study, we investigated whether COX-2-derived PGE2 regulated matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-3 production in human periodontal ligament (PDL) cells stimulated with interleukin (IL)-1alpha and which EP receptors were involved in PGE2 regulation of IL-1alpha-induced MMP-3 production. METHODS Human PDL cells obtained from periodontally healthy subjects were stimulated with vehicle or IL-1alpha in the presence or absence of indomethacin (a COX-1/COX-2 inhibitor), NS-398 (a specific COX- 2 inhibitor), PGE2, EP receptor agonists, dibutyryl cAMP, and forskolin. PGE2 levels were assayed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). MMP-3 levels and caseinolytic activities were evaluated by ELISA and casein zymography, respectively. RESULTS IL-1alpha enhanced both MMP-3 and PGE2 production. Indomethacin and NS-398 enhanced IL-1alpha-induced MMP-3 production in PDL cells, to the same extent, although both the agents completely inhibited IL-1alpha-induced PGE2 production. Exogenous PGE2 reduced IL-1alpha-induced MMP-3 production in a dose-dependent manner. Butaprost, a selective EP2 agonist, and ONO-AE1-329, a selective EP4 agonist, significantly inhibited IL-1alpha-induced MMP-3 production, although butaprost was less potent than ONO-AE-1-329. Dibutyryl cAMP, a cAMP analog, and forskolin, an adenylate cyclase activator, significantly inhibited IL-1alpha-stimulated MMP-3 production in PDL cells. CONCLUSIONS These data suggest that COX-2-dependent PGE2 downregulates IL-1alpha-elicited MMP-3 production by cAMP-dependent pathways via EP2/EP4 receptors in human PDL cells. cAMP-elevating agents such as EP2/EP4 receptor activators may regulate the destruction of extracellular matrix components in periodontal tissue.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Inflammatory reactions raised in response to periodontopathogens are thought to trigger pathways of periodontal tissue destruction. We therefore investigated the expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and the osteoclastogenic factor receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappaB ligand (RANKL), their respective tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) and osteoprotegerin (OPG) in different forms of human periodontal diseases (PDs), and the possible correlation with the expression of inflammatory and regulatory cytokines. MATERIAL AND METHODS Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (real-time PCR) was performed with gingival biopsies mRNA from aggressive (AP) and chronic periodontitis (CP) patients. RESULTS Periodontitis patients exhibit higher expression of all analyzed factors when compared with healthy tissues. The expression of MMPs and RANKL were similar in AP and CP, as well as the expression of TNF-alpha. On the other hand, the expression of TIMPs and OPG was higher in CP, and was associated with lower IFN-gamma and higher IL-10 expression, compared with AP. CONCLUSION It is possible that the pattern of cytokines expressed determines the stable or progressive nature of the lesions and regulates the severity of PD, driving the balance between MMPs and TIMPs, RANKL and OPG expression in the gingival tissues controlling the breakdown of soft and bone tissues and, consequently, the disease severity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In periodontitis, matrix metalloproteinase-3 (MMP-3, stromelysin 1) is present at increased levels in active disease sites compared to inactive or healthy sites, and the levels are correlated with clinical parameters and associated with progression of the disease. Interleukin (IL)-4 has been shown in human skin and synovial fibroblasts and articular chondrocytes to suppress IL-1-induced expression of MMP-3, but this has not been shown in human gingival fibroblasts. The objective of this study is to determine the effects of IL-4 on the IL-1-induced expression of MMP-3 in human gingival fibroblasts isolated from patients with periodontitis. METHODS Northern blot analysis was performed to determine the effects of IL-4 on the IL-1 induction of MMP-3 mRNA. MMP-3 protein levels were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) levels were measured by enzyme immunoassay (EIA). DNA binding of activator protein (AP)-1 and nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB was assessed by electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA). RESULTS Northern blot analysis revealed that co-incubation of gingival fibroblasts with IL-1 and IL-4 resulted in a significant decrease in MMP-3 mRNA levels compared to IL-1 alone, with a concomitant decrease in protein levels. This inhibition is dose-dependent, and is apparent as early as 3 hours after stimulation. IL-1-induced production of PGE2 was not affected in four of six cultures isolated from different individuals. Addition of exogenous PGE2 had no effect on the suppressive effects of IL-4. DNA binding of transcription factors AP-1 and NF-kappaB was not affected by IL-4. CONCLUSIONS IL-4 inhibits the IL-1 induction of MMP-3 in human gingival fibroblasts isolated from patients with periodontitis. This effect is independent of PGE2 and is not due to inhibition of the DNA binding activity of known transcription factors binding to the MMP-3 promoter.

Abstract
Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) exerts its biological actions via EP receptors (EP1, EP2, EP3, and EP4). In the present study, we investigated whether PGE2 regulated interleukin (IL)-1beta-induced matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-3 production in human gingival fibroblasts (HGF) derived from periodontally healthy subjects and diseased patients. In HGF from healthy gingiva, PGE2 down-regulated IL-1beta-induced MMP-3 production, whereas in HGF from periodontitis patients, PGE2 enhanced it. Butaprost (an EP2 agonist) and ONO-AE1-329 (an EP4 agonist) suppressed IL-1beta-induced MMP-3 production, and 17-phenyl-omega-trinor PGE2 (an EP1 agonist) mimicked the PGE(2) effect in HGF from healthy and periodontally diseased tissues, respectively. Analysis of these data suggests that, in HGF from healthy tissue, IL-1beta-induced MMP-3 production is down-regulated by PGE2 via EP2 and EP4 receptors, whereas in cells from periodontally diseased tissue, IL-1beta-induced MMP-3 production is up-regulated via EP1 receptors. Different regulation of IL-1beta-induced MMP-3 production by PGE2 between healthy and periodontally diseased tissues may be involved in the pathogenesis of periodontal disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of modulating agents, including inhibition of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) with antiproteinases, blocking production of proinflammatory cytokines and prostaglandins with anti-inflammatory drugs, and inhibiting activation of osteoclasts with bone-sparing agents, has been postulated to be of therapeutic value as an adjunctive therapy to the management of chronic periodontitis. RATIONALE The objective of this systematic review of the literature was to assess the adjunctive efficacy of antiproteinase, anti-inflammatory, and bone-sparing host-modulating agents in the treatment of gingivitis, aggressive periodontitis, and chronic periodontitis. FOCUSED QUESTIONS: 1. In patients with periodontal diseases, what is the effect of host-modulation agents, alone or combined with conventional therapy, compared to conventional therapy alone as assessed by clinical, radiographic, adverse, and patient-centered outcomes? 2. In patients with dental implants, what is the effect of host-modulation agents on implant success assessed by clinical, radiographic, adverse, and patient-centered outcomes? SEARCH PROTOCOL MEDLINE, Embase, and the Cochrane Library databases were searched without language restrictions through April 1, 2002 for studies that used tetracycline (TET)-related matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) inhibitors, or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and bisphosphonate anti-osteolytic agents. The investigation also included hand searching of journals and contacting authors and industry experts. SELECTION CRITERIA INCLUSION CRITERIA Only human studies (randomized controlled clinical trials, cohort studies, case-control studies, cross-sectional studies, and case series) were selected. Studies were on subjects with gingivitis, aggressive or chronic periodontitis, or dental implants. Interventions included TET-related MMP inhibitors, NSAIDs, or bisphosphonate anti-osteolytic agents. EXCLUSION CRITERIA Studies that used MMP tissue inhibitors as diagnostic or prognostic indicators of periodontal disease or that evaluated short-term systemic antibodies or locally delivered levels of drugs with antiproteinase activity were excluded. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS The primary outcomes for assessment were changes in bone or clinical attachment levels (CAL); secondary outcomes included clinical measures of plaque, gingival inflammation, probing depth (PD), and mobility. Summary data appropriate for meta-analysis were pooled using a weighted average and analyzed using a standardized difference; the results were checked with both fixed-effects and random-effects models. MAIN RESULTS 1. A meta-analysis done on the studies reporting changes in CAL and PD following administration of sub-antimicrobial doses of doxycycline (SDD) in conjunction with scaling and root planing (SRP) in patients with periodontitis showed a statistically significant beneficial adjunctive effect. 2. There were insufficient data to provide meta-analyses on periodontal patients treated with other host-modulating agents; descriptive tables are included. 3. NSAIDS show promise in their ability to slow periodontal disease. 4. Preliminary data on bisphosphonate agents indicate there is a potential role for these agents in periodontitis management. 5. There are a very limited number of studies on host-modulating agents and dental implants and no analyses were possible. 6. Because the treatment methodologies and clinical variables differed considerably among the studies, it is difficult to summarize the information and identify a reliable total patient population. REVIEWERS' CONCLUSIONS 1. Large multi-center trials are needed to evaluate the role of host-modulating agents in the treatment of periodontitis. 2. NSAIDS and bisphosphonate drugs may have a potential adjunctive role in periodontal therapy. 3. The adjunctive use of SDD with SRP is statistically more effective than SRP alone in reducing PD and in achieving CAL gain.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inactivation of the elastase inhibitor, alpha1 proteinase inhibitor (alpha1PI), may be of pathogenic significance in inflammatory diseases like periodontal disease. Two key mechanisms of inactivation appear to be (a) the formation of an alpha1PI-elastase complex and (b) proteolytic cleavage by elastase or other enzymes such as metalloproteinases of host origin or enzymes of bacterial origin. Based on the different heat stabilities of the intact, complexed and proteolytically cleaved forms of alpha1PI, an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) that allowed the simultaneous measurement of native and inactive forms of alpha1PI was developed. METHODS The ELISA method described employs a commercially available antibody and represents a rapid, reproducible and sensitive method for studying alpha1PI inactivation in human inflammatory diseases. The assay was applied to normal human plasma and to human extracellular fluids obtained from patients with inflammatory diseases such as adult periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis. Samples from patients with osteoarthritis, a "non-inflammatory" joint disease, were also studied. RESULTS The findings expressed as the mean percentage (+/-SD) of the total alpha1PI that was inactivated were as follows: gingival crevicular fluid from adult periodontitis patients: 73.5+/-16.6% (n=12); normal human plasma: 8.4+/-4.9% (n=13); knee-joint synovial fluid (SF) from rheumatoid arthritis patients: 12.5+/-4.5% (n=15); plasma from rheumatoid arthritis patients: 8.0+/-1.8% (n=15); knee-joint SF from osteoarthritis patients: 8.6+/-8.2% (n=14); plasma from osteoarthritis patients: 5.7+/-4.8% (n=14). The results obtained by ELISA were in good agreement with those obtained by the semi-quantitative method of SDS-PAGE and Western blotting. CONCLUSIONS We have shown that the differential heat stability of alpha1PI may be utilised as the basis for a rapid, sensitive and reproducible ELISA assay of alpha1PI inactivation. In gingival crevicular fluid from periodontal disease patients, alpha1PI is mainly inactivated and the extent of this inactivation is much higher than in inflammatory fluids from other chronic diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis. This assay could be useful in monitoring the progression of periodontal disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although pregnancy gingivitis is widely believed to result from elevated hormone concentrations, the mechanism(s) involved in the etiology of this condition remain unknown. Paradoxically, despite the apparent inflammation for a prolonged period, pregnancy gingivitis rarely progresses to periodontitis and usually resolves postpartum. We used several methods to test in vitro the hypothesis that the elevated progesterone levels of pregnancy might inhibit the production of some of the matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) that are responsible for periodontal destruction. METHODS Cultured human gingival fibroblasts (GF) were tested in phenol red-free, serum-free medium with or without the progestogen, medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA; 10(-6) M), using interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) to initiate immune responses and MMP production. These MMP responses were examined by macroarrays, reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), zymograms, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). RESULTS Array analysis showed that pretreatment of GF with MPA reduced mRNA induction for MMPs-1, -3, and -10 in response to 6 to 8 hours incubation with IL-1beta. RT-PCR confirmed, that after 24 hours with IL-1beta , GF pretreated with MPA had undetectable levels of mRNA for MMPs-1, -2, -3, -7, -10, and -13. Zymograms of culture media from this 24-hour period showed reduction in several proteolytic activities. Examination of such 24-hour media using ELISA for MMP-3 and pro-MMP-13 confirmed that secretion of these enzymes was upregulated by IL-1beta and modulated downward by pretreatment with MPA. CONCLUSIONS Production by GF of numerous MMPs in response to IL-1beta was significantly reduced by progesterone. This steroidal modulation of proteolytic enzymes could help to explain why pregnancy gingivitis typically is not characterized by progression to periodontitis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The diagnosis of progressing periodontal disease typically relies on retrospective methods that detect changes in the amount of periodontal breakdown. Fibronectin (FN) fragments are found in vivo in association with periodontal disease, and specific FN fragments compromise periodontal ligament cell functions in vitro. The overall goal of this cross-sectional study was to determine whether specific FN fragments are present in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and can be used as markers for periodontal disease status. The eventual goal is to test these FN fragments in a longitudinal study as potential markers of disease activity. METHODS GCF was collected from 94 subjects with untreated periodontitis from clinically healthy, mild/moderate periodontitis, and severe periodontitis sites. Sites were defined on the basis of clinical criteria, including gingival bleeding index, probing depth, and clinical attachment level. Western immunoblotting was used to detect FN fragments in GCF using antibodies to specific FN domains, including the collagen/gelatin-, central cell-, and carboxyl terminal heparin-binding domains, plus the CS-1 site on the alternatively spliced V region and the EIIIA region. FN fragments identified by immunoblotting and analyzed by NIH image software were scored based on pixel intensity and an ordinal grade scale. RESULTS We identified several fragments highly associated with severe periodontitis sites, including 40-kDa, 120-kDa, and 68-kDa fragments. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates that specific FN fragments are markers for periodontal disease status and supports the role of FN fragments as potential components in the pathogenesis of periodontal disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To determine whether matrix metalloproteinase-3 (MMP-3) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-1 (TIMP-1) in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) could serve as prognostic factors for the progression of periodontitis, we monitored GCF MMP-3 and TIMP-1 and periodontal status of selected sites in 40 medically healthy subjects over a 6-month period. METHOD Clinical measurements including gingival index (GI), plaque index, bleeding on probing, suppuration, probing depth (PD), attachment loss (AL), and GCF samples were taken from 2 healthy sites (including sites with gingival recession, GI=0 PD < or =3 mm; AL < or =2 mm) and 2 periodontitis sites (GI > or =1; PD > or =5 mm; AL > or =3 mm) of each patient at baseline, 3-month and 6-month visits by means of sterile paper strips. GCF levels of MMP-3 and TIMP-1 were determined by sandwich ELISA assays. RESULTS The mean amounts of MMP-3 and TIMP-1 in diseased sites were significantly higher than in healthy sites (p<0.0001). Significantly higher GCF levels of MMP-3 and TIMP-1 were found at progressing sites than in nonprogressing periodontitis sites (0.001<p<0.01). A progressing site was defined as a site which had > or =2 mm loss of attachment during 6- month study period. GCF levels of MMP-3 were highly correlated with clinical measurements taken at baseline, 3-month and 6-month visits (p<0.001). TIMP-1 levels were only moderately correlated with probing depth and attachment level (p<0.01). Step-wise multiple regression analysis was performed to construct models for the prediction of probing depth and attachment loss increases. The most parsimonious regression models which had the best R2 values included the following variables and accounted for the indicated % of variability. The regression model for the prediction of probing depth increase included MMP-3, smoking pack-years, TIMP-1 and accounted for 53% of the variability. The best model for the prediction of attachment loss increase included MMP-3, smoking pack-years, age, TIMP-1 and explained 59% of the variability. CONCLUSION These data indicate that sites with high GCF levels of MMP-3 and TIMP-1 are at significantly greater risk for progression of periodontitis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oral lichen planus (OLP) is characterized by a sub-epithelial lymphocytic infiltrate, basement membrane (BM) disruption, intra-epithelial T-cell migration and apoptosis of basal keratinocytes. BM damage and T-cell migration in OLP may be mediated by matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). METHODS We examined the distribution, activation and cellular sources of MMPs and their inhibitors (TIMPs) in OLP using immunohistochemistry, ELISA, RT-PCR and zymography. RESULTS MMP-2 and -3 were present in the epithelium while MMP-9 was associated with the inflammatory infiltrate. MMP-9 and TIMP-1 secretion by OLP lesional T cells was greater than OLP patient (p < 0.01) and healthy control subject (p < 0.001) peripheral blood T cells. MMP-9 and TIMP-1 mRNA levels were greater in OLP lesional T cells compared with healthy control subject peripheral blood T cells p < 0.01). Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha upregulated OLP lesional T-cell MMP-9 (not TIMP-1) mRNA and secretion (p < 0.05). The in vitro activation rate of MMP-9 from OLP lesional T cells was greater than that from OLP peripheral blood T cells (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION T-cell-derived MMP-9 may be involved in the pathogenesis of OLP. Relative over-expression of MMP-9 (compared with TIMP-1) may cause BM disruption and facilitate intra-epithelial T-cell migration in OLP.

Abstract
Teeth are coated with a biofilm that contains periodontal pathogens. Pathogens express virulence factors which enable them to invade and replicate within epithelial cells and to invade the underlying connective tissue. This stimulates production of prostaglandins and cytokines that induce tissue loss. In addition, these bacteria have the potential to modulate the course of systemic diseases such as atherosclerosis and to contribute to low birthweight and preterm labor.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Periodontitis is characterized by extensive destruction of the gingival tissues and associated supporting structures of the teeth. Although the pathogenesis of the various forms of this disease is not completely understood, host-derived proteases are believed to have an important role. In this study, we analyzed human tissue samples from chronic adult periodontitis patients to assess the levels of specific proteases and determine the effect of pH and tetracyclines on their activity. METHODS Gingival tissue samples were obtained from patients with chronic adult periodontitis (probing depths ranged from 5 to 9 mm) and periodontally healthy controls. Tissue extracts were prepared and analyzed for protease activity by zymography and Western blotting. RESULTS Maximal protease activity from clinically normal and diseased tissues was observed at pH 8. Latent matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 and MMP-2 were expressed in all samples examined, while active MMP-2 was detected only in tissues obtained from patients with clinical disease. The MMP activities were differentially inhibited by derivatives of tetracycline. At pH 6, a protease with a mass of approximately 40 kDa was observed in diseased samples. The enzymatic activity was inhibited by phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, suggesting it is a serine protease. CONCLUSIONS The results of the current study substantiate the proposed role of host-derived proteases in the pathogenesis of chronic adult periodontitis. Specifically, they indicate that activated MMP-2 and a 40 kDa serine protease are involved in tissue destruction associated with this form of periodontal disease and also suggest that tissue pH influences protease activity in situ.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies have indicated an important role for host-derived proteases in the pathogenesis of periodontal disease. The objectives of this study were: 1) to develop an assay measuring protease activity in situ and 2) to localize and characterize the enzymatic activity in intact inflamed and healthy gingiva. METHODS Gingival specimens were prepared and over-laid with a quenched fluorescent substrate. Protease activity was visualized by fluorescence microscopy and correlated with histologic features. RESULTS In inflamed tissues, enzymatic activity was detected mainly in the connective tissue (predominantly matrix metalloproteases) and, to some extent, in the epithelium (predominantly serine proteases). In contrast, clinically healthy tissues failed to exhibit significant amounts of protease activity. Quantitative and qualitative characteristics of protease activity in intact tissues were found to be pH dependent. CONCLUSIONS The method described here enabled assessment of active proteases in intact tissues where cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions had been maintained. Our results indicate that there are substantial differences in the distribution of specific proteases between clinically healthy and inflamed periodontal tissues.

Abstract
Neutrophil collagenase (matrix metalloproteinase 8 [MMP-8]) is an important mediator of tissue destruction in inflammatory diseases. Studies of anaerobic periodontal infections have shown that active MMP-8 in gingival crevicular fluid is associated with the degradation of periodontal tissues in progressive periodontitis whereas the latent enzyme is predominant in gingivitis. Since the activation of MMP-8 appears to be a crucial step in periodontitis, we have examined the activation of MMP-8 in gingival crevicular fluid samples by using a soluble biotinylated collagen substrate. Analysis of gingival crevicular fluid in periodontitis, gingivitis, and controls revealed sixfold (P < 0.001)-higher levels of active collagenase in periodontitis (n = 12) samples compared to gingivitis (n = 17) samples, which exhibited low levels of activity, while controls (n = 25) showed no activity. After gingival crevicular fluid was collected, no further activation of latent collagenase occurred in vitro. Although both MMP-1 and MMP-8, but not MMP-13, could be detected by immunoblots, blocking antibodies to MMP-1 showed that collagenase activity was largely contributed by MMP-8, which was localized to the matrix of diseased tissues. The MMP-8 in gingival crevicular fluid migrated primarily as a 60-kDa form with smaller amounts of a 78-kDa species, whereas MMP-8 isolated from peripheral neutrophils migrated at 70 and 89 kDa, corresponding to active and latent forms of the enzyme, respectively. Most of the MMP-8 in the 60- and 70-kDa bands selectively bound to tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 2 and collagen, indicating that most, but not all, of the enzyme in these bands was in an activated form. However, the amounts of the 78- and 60-kDa forms from gingival crevicular fluid in different samples did not correlate (r2 = 0.028) with the latent and active enzyme measured by collagenase assay. Collectively, these studies have identified distinct forms of latent and active MMP-8 in gingival crevicular fluid that appear to result from a unique activation mechanism that occurs in periodontitis. The complexity of MMP-8 activation is further indicated by the presence of latent, activated, and superactivated forms of MMP-8 in the 60- and 70-kDa bands obtained from gingival crevicular fluid and neutrophil samples, respectively.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To provide an overall assessment of levels of tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs), collagenase activities, and of immuno-reactivities for matrix metalloproteinases (MMP)-1 and -8 in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) obtained from healthy subjects, and gingivitis and periodontitis patients, and to analyse the relationships between periodontal tissue destruction and the GCF components in periodontal diseases by principal component analysis. MATERIALS AND METHODS GCF was sampled with sterile paper strips from 10 gingivitis and 11 periodontitis patients. Ten volunteers served as clinically healthy controls. TIMP-1 and -2 protein amounts in GCF were measured by ELISA, and active and APMA-activatable collagenase activities were determined by functional assays using image-analysis after SDS-PAGE. RESULTS GCF TIMP-1 level and both active and latent collagenase activities were significantly higher in the diseased groups than in the healthy group. TIMP-2 was detectable in only 29% of all subjects (mean: 2.06 ng). Western blot analysis showed that MMP-8 was the major interstitial collagenase in the GCF of the diseased groups. Principal component analysis using clinical parameters and the GCF components has indicated components one to three account for 87% of total variation when evaluating the relevance of their measurements to periodontal diseases. CONCLUSIONS We conducted the functional and immunological characterization of MMPs and TIMPs in the GCF of periodontally diseased patients. Principal component analysis indicated components one to three explaining 87% of total variation, and further suggested that higher collagenase activity (especially in active collagenase) would be an important marker in evaluating the pathogenesis of periodontitis. Consequently, these observations may have significant therapeutic and diagnostic implications.

Abstract
In the present study, the activity of 3 functionally related enzymes, creatine kinase (CK), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels in the rest and flow gingival crevicular fluid (rGCF, fGCF) from patients with rapidly progressive periodontitis (RPP) and adult periodontitis (AP) were determined before and after periodontal treatment, including maintenance. When rGCF and fGCF mean enzyme levels were compared, rGCF was found to contain approximately twice as much enzyme levels than fGCF throughout the study. The findings of the present study revealed that both the rGCF and fGCF samples also contained higher CK, LDH, and AST levels than serum samples. Baseline clinical parameters and GCF enzyme levels presented a significant decline throughout the non-surgical and surgical treatment phases in both patient groups, with surgical treatment being more effective. Despite clinical stability, in the AP group levels of LDH and AST showed a tendency to increase in the third month, while enzyme levels still continued to decrease in the RPP group, who received additional antibiotics during the surgical phase. These findings suggest that GCF intracytoplasmic enzyme profile is related with periodontal status and successful periodontal treatment, in addition to clinical improvement, has a significant effect on this profile. Analysis of biochemical events, more specifically intracytoplasmic enzyme levels in GCF, are likely to offer a sensitive measure of periodontal pathology which may help in overcoming the existing limitations of clinical parameters. For this purpose, analysis of rGCF intracytoplasmic enzymes seems to be more beneficial.
