Analysis of vitamin D receptor gene polymorphisms in patients with chronic periodontitis
Gunes, Sezgin; Sumer, A. Pinar; Keles, Gonca Cayir; Kara, Nurten; Koprulu, Hulya; Bagci, Hasan; Bek, Yuksel (Medknow Publications & Media Pvt Ltd, 2008)Background & objectives: Genetic polymorphisms in the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene are related to bone mineral density, bone turnover, and diseases with bone loss. Alveolar bone loss is a key feature in periodontitis. The ... -
Association of interleukin-10 gene polymorphisms with severe generalized chronic periodontitis
Sumer, A. Pinar; Kara, Nurten; Keles, Gonca Cayir; Gunes, Sezgin; Koprulu, Hulya; Bagci, Hasan (Wiley, 2007)Background: Interleukin-10 (IL-10), an anti-inflammatory cytokine, plays a role in periodontal disease by inhibiting synthesis of proinflammatory cytokines and stimulating protective antibody production. Genetic polymorphisms ... -
Association of matrix metalloproteinase-9 promoter gene polymorphism with chronic periodontitis
Keles, Gonca Cayir; Gunes, Sezgin; Sumer, A. Pinar; Sumer, Mahmut; Kara, Nurten; Bagci, Hasan; Koprulu, Hulya (Wiley, 2006)Background: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are related to tissue destruction and remodeling events in periodontal diseases. A single nucleotide polymorphism in the promoter region of human MMP-9 gene is associated with ... -
Association of the polymorphisms in promoter and intron regions of the interleukin-4 gene with chronic periodontitis in a Turkish population
Kara, Nurten; Keles, Gonca Cayir; Sumer, Pinar; Gunes, Sezgin Ozgur; Bagci, Hasan; Koprulu, Hulya; Bek, Yuksel (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2007)Objectives. The etiology of periodontitis is related to the interaction between micro-organisms and host responses. Host modifving factors, such as genetic predisposition, may increase the severity of periodontitis. Recent ... -
Comparison of platelet pellet and bioactive glass in periodontal regenerative therapy
Keles, Gonca Cayir; Cetinkaya, Burcu Ozkan; Albayrak, Davut; Koprulu, Hulya; Acikgoz, Gokhan (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2006)Objective. In recent years, platelet-rich plasma combined with graft materials has been used for periodontal regeneration. The individual role of blood products with guided tissue regeneration in periodontal regenerative ... -
Levels of gingival tissue platelet activating factor after conventional and regenerative periodontal surgery
Keles, Gonca Cayir; Cetinkaya, Burcu Ozkan; Ayas, Bulent; Isildak, Ibrahim; Diraman, Emine; Koprulu, Hulya; Acikgoz, Gokhan (Springer Heidelberg, 2007)The hypothesis, a relationship between gingival tissue platelet activating factor (PAF) levels and healing after periodontal surgery, was tested by measuring PAF levels in gingival tissues collected from sites that had ... -
Preventive measures to reduce the transfer of Streptococcus mutans from pregnant women to their babies
Guler, Eda; Koprulu, Hulya (Elsevier Taiwan, 2011)Background/purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the transfer of Streptococcus mutans to babies from prospective mothers in whom protective measures were carried out and who were trained in dental health care. ...
