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 …

Osteoclast differentiation factor (ODF), a recently identified cytokine of the TNF family, is
expressed as a membrane-associated protein in osteoblasts and stromal cells. ODF …

Osteoclasts, the cells capable of resorbing bone, are derived from hemopoietic precursor
cells of monocyte-macrophage lineage. The same precursor cells can also give rise to …

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) modulates bone resorption by augmentation of
osteoclastogenesis. It increases in osteoblasts the production of RANKL, interleukin (IL)‐1 …

LPS is a potent stimulator of bone resorption in inflammatory diseases. The mechanism by
which LPS induces osteoclastogenesis was studied in cocultures of mouse osteoblasts and …

The article highlights the role of actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans bacteria in oral
infections associated with periodontal disease and its purported contribution to systemic …

Background and Objective: Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease of bacterial
etiology, affecting tooth‐supporting tissues. The host inflammatory response to …

The objective was to review the literature on the effects of selective and non-selective non-
steroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) on the treatment of periodontal diseases. A …
