Identification of genetic risk factors for periodontitis and possible mechanisms of action

26 Aug 2005

Abstract excerpt

AIM: To review the literature for genetic risk factors associated with periodontitis. METHODS: Computerized search of the literature in English using key words: Periodontitis; Genes; Mutation; Polymorphism; Risk. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: Mutations in the cathepsin C gene (CTSC) have been identified as causal for the Papillon-Lefèvre syndrome (PLS), which includes prepubertal periodontitis (PP). Some CTSC...
