Brief Summary

Sialic acid (SA) is the generic term given to a family of acetylated derivatives of neuraminic acid. SA is a 9 carbon monosaccharide. An important function of host SA is to regulate innate immunity. SA is present in several acute phase proteins which are known to be associated with periodontitis. There exists a need for a biomarker, for early detection of disease evolution and more robust therapy efficacy measurements. Till date, there is very little data regarding simultaneous estimation and comparison of total SA content in saliva. IL-10, an anti-inflammatory cytokine, regulates the synthesis of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1, -2, -6 and stimulates protective antibody production. IL-10 is expressed in both healthy and diseased human periodontal tissues and is reported to be reduced in patients infected with Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans. The present study was therefore undertaken with an aim, to not only assess the levels of TSA(Total sialic acid levels),but also of IL 10 levels in saliva from stage 1(mild) to stage 2(moderate) periodontitis patients

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Sialic acid levels in stage 1 periodontitis

    Sialic acid is measured by taking salivary samples(unstimulated) from stage 1 periodontitis patients

    From baseline to 3 months

  • Sialic acid levels in stage 2 periodontitis

    Sialic acid is measured by taking salivary samples(unstimulated) from stage 2 periodontitis patients

    From baseline to 3 months

  • IL10 levels in stage 1 periodontitis

    IL10 is measured by taking salivary samples(unstimulated) from stage 1 periodontitis patients

    From baseline to 3 months

  • IL10 levels in stage 2 periodontitis

    IL10 is measured by taking salivary samples(unstimulated) from stage 2 periodontitis patients

    From baseline to 3 months
