Cytokines and chemokines associated with Treg/Th17 response in chronic inflammatory periapical disease

Abstract Cytokines and chemokines have a fundamental role in the maintenance of inflammation and bone response, which culminate in the development of chronic periapical lesions. Regulatory (Treg) and Th17 cytokines play a key role in regulating the immune response involved in this process. The aim of thi...

Dendritic cells and their relation to apical peridontitis

Braz. oral res. (Online); 32 (supl.1), 2018
Abstract: The purpose of this manuscript was to re-discuss apical periodontitis, apical biofilm, and its possible relationship with dendritic cells (DC). DCs are potent regulators of the immune system and their function is divided into three categories that involve the presentation of antigens: the prese...

Treg and Th17 cells in inflammatory periapical disease: a systematic review

Abstract: The process involved in periapical lesions, which occur as an outcome of pulpal necrosis, is regulated by the immune system including regulatory T cells (Treg) and T helper 17 cell (Th17) responses. The objective of this study was to conduct a frequency systematic review to determine the presen...
