Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Periodontitis is a complex, multifactorial disease and its susceptibility is genetically determined. The present book systematically reviews the evidence of the association between the genetic variants and periodontitis progression and/or treatment outcomes. Genetic syndromes known to be associated with periodontal disease, the candidate gene polymorphisms investigated in relation to periodontitis, the heritability of chronic and aggressive periodontitis, as well as common guidelines for association studies are described. This growing understanding of the role of genetic variation in inflammation and periodontal chronic disease presents opportunities to identify healthy persons who are at increased risk of disease and to potentially modify the trajectory of disease to prolong healthy aging. The book represents a new concept in periodontology with its pronounced focus on understanding through knowledge rather than presenting the presently valid answers. Connections between genetics and periodontology are systematically reviewed and covered in detail.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Periodontal disease includes a broad spectrum of inflammatory and destructive responses to oral microbes in the susceptible human host.The genetic disorders are not the cause of the disease, they are the amplifiers of the disease process. Evidence for genetic influence on periodontitis comes from multiple sources including familial aggregation and formal genetic studies of aggressive forms of periodontitis and twin studies of chronic periodontitis. Reports of genetic polymorphisms associated with periodontal disease are increasing,in this context, a brief review has been prepared to enlighten the readers about the various aspects of genetics which are being used in the field of Periodontics. The scenario of various case control studies and literature in the past to date in order to to provide a brief overview of basic genetic concepts, genetic polymorphisms and to discuss the genetic aspects of various forms of periodontal diseases

Abstract: Abstract GENETIC RISKS OF PERIODONTAL DISEASE By ZHENG YING For the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Hong Kong Sep 2016 Periodontitis is a common dental noncommunicable disease. Numerous risk indicators are reported to be associated with chronic periodontitis (CP), including genetic susceptibility. The aim of this study was to investigate the genetic risk indicators of periodontitis in southern Chinese by candidate-gene and genome- wide association study approaches. Materials and methods In the first part of the study, the association of T helper 2 cell (Th2) regulatory and effector molecules' genetic polymorphisms with periodontitis in non-smokers was investigated. Th2 cells have been suggested to play an important role in periodontitis pathogenesis for decades, but the genetic background has not been thoroughly studied. 141 non-smoking CP patients and 163 periodontitis-free controls diagnosed clinically as well as characterized via radiograph assessment of alveolar bone loss were recruited. Genomic DNA from whole blood samples was collected and genotyped using Sequenom iPlex assays upon 129 SNPs of eleven IV Th2 cell regulatory or effector molecules genes (CD28, CTLA4, IL4, IL5, IL6, IL9, IL10, IL13, IL4R, GATA3, STAT6) and rs1537415, a recently reported SNPs related to aggressive periodontitis. In the second part of the study, 1,213 Southern Chinese were clinically examined and diagnosed based on the CDC/AAP classification of periodontitis and mean clinical attachment level (mCAL). A whole-genome association study (GWAS) was conducted to identify the genetic indicator for periodontitis in this Chinese cohort using HumanOmniZhongHua-8 BeadChip (Illumina), consisting of 814,285 SNPs after quality control. Single-marker, gene-based and pathway analysis were performed after imputation with the adjustment of age, gender, smoking, diabetes and plaque percentage. Results In the candidate gene study, three SNPs (rs4553808, rs16840252 and rs5742909) located in the promoter region of CTLA4 were identified to be closely inter- linked, and they were significantly associated with CP (pIn the GWAS, after single marker analysis with the mCAL-phenotype, four SNPs (rs78946930, rs77514260, rs78931888 and rs78399198) in the intron of the gene of Src homology domain containing 4A (SH2D4A) were found to be significantly V -8 associated with CP (p=1.32 2.5810 ). Gene-based analysis with mCAL- phenotype confirmed the significant association of SH2D4A with CP -7 (p=5.7410 ). Conclusion The candidate-gene study showed that SNPs in the region of CTLA4 was associated with CP in non-smoking Chinese. As CTLA4 was not exclusively expressed on Th2 cells, there was yet insufficient evidence to support the influence of Th2 cells on CP pathogenesis. The GWAS result suggested that SH2D4A was significantly associated with CP in Southern Chinese. Replication study and functional studies were underway to validate such observation.
