Abstract excerpt

As pattern recognition receptor, Toll-like receptor (TLR) 2 is a signal molecule essential for the cellular response to Porphyromonas gingivalis. A recently described guanine-thymine (GT) repeat microsatellite polymorphism of the human TLR2 gene leads to impaired promotor activity. A total of 380 patients with chronic periodontitis and 590 unrelated healthy control individuals of Caucasian descent were genotyped...
