Abstract excerpt
Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) constitute a pivotal arm of innate immunity. Many studies investigated the association between PRRs polymorphisms and periodontitis risk, which showed inconclusive results. The aim of the meta-analysis was to evaluate the precise association between five widely-evaluated polymorphisms (CD14 -260C/T (rs2569190), Toll-like receptor (TLR) 2 2408G/A (rs5743708), TLR4 896A/G...
