												A Comparison Of Il-1β, E2 (Pge2), Pai-2 and Tnf-Α Levels in Gingival Crevicular Fluid (Gcf) and Peri-Implant Crevicular Fluid (Picf) from Groups of Patients with Healthy Teeth, Healthy Implants, Periodontitis and Peri-Implantitis

				 Objectives: The aim of this study was to analyse simultaneously four markers in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF)
  and peri-implant crevicular fluid (PICF) from 41 patients in four different groups over a period of six months in order
  to establish profiles indicating quantitative ratio and potential correlations.
Material and Methods: We compared levels of interleukin-1 beta (IL-1ß), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), specific
  plasminogen activator inhibitor 2 (PAI-2) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) in GCF and PICF from four groups
  of patients: healthy teeth (n=10), healthy implants (n=10), periodontitis (n=11) and peri-implantitis (n=10). Clinical
  parameters including bacterial flora were quantified by PCR-analysis. The concentration in GCF/PICF of IL-1β,
  PAI-2, E2 (PGE2) was determined by ELISA, TNF-α by W.. View More»
