NCT02172716

Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to assess the short-term immune response of type-2 diabetics with generalized chronic periodontitis (GCP) to nonsurgical periodontal treatment. The investigators hypothesize that type-2 diabetes exacerbates the disruption of DC (dendritic cells)-mediated immune homeostasis associated with periodontitis.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Change from baseline in cellular measures

    Cellular measures: Blood PBMCs- counts of myeloid DC (BDCA-1+CD19-), Plasmacytoid DC (cd123+cd303+) NK (CD56+CD16+), Th17, Treg (CD25+, CD39,CD73,CD127, cd152)

    24 hours, 30 days and 3 months after treatment.

  • Change from baseline in molecular measures

    Molecular measures: (Serum/crevicular fluid/ saliva): Anti-mfa-1 IgG (ELISA), Levels of IDO-1, TGFβ, TNFα, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-2, IL-10, IL-17, IL-23, IFNγ, CXCL12 (SDF1) by Multiplexing Luminex immunoassay \[MAGPIX®\]), performed in triplicate

    24 hours, 30 days and 3 months after treatment.

  • Change from baseline in the expression on mDCs

    Expression on mDCs by custom qrt-PCR array (One step-fast cycle Taqman®, life technologiesTM of: angiopoietin-2, follistatin, GM-CSF, G-CSF, HGF, IL8, IL-6, leptin, PDGF-BB, PECAM-1, VEGF, TGFβ, IDO-1, IL-10, IL-1β, caspase-1, IL-17, IL-23, IL-23R IL-33, IL-12 p70, TRAIL, FOX01, Bcl-2, CXCL12 (SDF-1), CCL19, CCL21 analyzed in triplicate.

    24 hours, 30 days and 3 months after treatment.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • periodontal probing depth, periodontal attachment level, bleeding on probing, visible plaque and gingival bleeding.

    Baseline, 30 days and 3 months

Study Arms (1)

Nonsurgical periodontal treatment

EXPERIMENTAL

Nonsurgical periodontal treatment will be conducted following a full-mouth approach; no antibiotics or chemical plaque control will be provided.

Procedure: Nonsurgical periodontal treatment

Interventions

All patients with GCP will receive full-mouth scaling and root planning under local analgesia in one session. Hopeless teeth will be treated similarly and extracted after de 30 days visit. Oral hygiene instructions will be given as needed. Supragingival scaling Periodontally healthy subjects will receive supra-gingival scaling and polishing in one appointment as needed. Oral hygiene instructions will be given as needed.

Nonsurgical periodontal treatment
