Introduction. The inflammatory-dystrophic process in periodontium is accompanied by its hypoxia, which causes the activation of free radical oxidation processes. Tissue destruction in periodontal diseases is considered to be the result of an altered inflammatory/immune response to microbial plaque and involves massive release of neutrophils, reactive oxygen species and enzymes. The aim of the study – to establish the protein oxidative modification in blood and periodontium in case of periodontitis combined with hyper- and hypothyroidism in rats. Research Methods. Experimental studies were carry out on 48 mature male, nonliner, white rats, which were divided into the following groups: І – control animals; ІІ – animals with periodontitis; ІІІ – animals with periodontitis combined with hyperthyroidism; IV – animals with periodontitis combined with hypothyroidism. Protein oxidative modification (POM) was determined in blood serum and periodontium homogenate by the method of I.F. Meschyshyn. Results and Discussion. The results of our studies showed that the intensity of the processes of protein oxidative modification was significantly increased in animals of all experimental groups vs control group. The content of aldehyde- and ketone derivatives of the alkali nature changed more pronounced than the content of aldehyde and ketone derivatives of neutral nature. Conclusions. Thus, the experimental periodontitis is accompanied by a marked increase in the intensity of the protein oxidative modifications both in the homogenate of periodontal tissues and in the blood serum. Imbalance of thyroid hormones increases oxidative stress in experimental periodontitis, especially pronounced in hyperthyroidism.

The aim of the study was to investigate the content of spontaneous protein oxidative modification (POM) in the blood serum and pulmonary tissue of rats after local gamma irradiation of the projection area of the heart and lungs. The content of products of spontaneous POM (aliphatic neutral and basic aldehyde- and ketone-dinitrophenylhydrazones) in the blood serum and pulmonary tissue of 57 rats was studied. The animals were divided into 5 groups: “control group”, where there was gamma irradiation of the heart and lungs area, the collection of samples was done at the next day; “treatment group”, where a single session of low-intensity broadband red light was performed after local exposure to gamma radiation (the collection of samples was done at the next day); “chronic control group”, where there was an exposure to local gamma irradiation of the heart and lungs area, the collection of samples was done at the fourth day; “chronic treatment group” was daily exposed to low-intensity red light for 4 days after local exposure to gamma radiation, the collection of samples was done at the fourth day; “normal level group” was not exposed to either gamma radiation or broadband red light. In the pulmonary tissue and blood serum of control animals, a gradual increase in the content of spontaneous POM products was observed. The most significant difference from the normal level the “chronic control group” had. At the same time, the normalization of the content of POM products under the influence of low-intensity broadband red light in the tissues of the experimental groups was revealed. In the course of the experimental study, the normalization of processes of free radical oxidation of proteins in the lung tissue and in the serum of rats after gamma irradiation and the exposure of the projection region of the heart and lungs to low-intensity broadband red light was shown. Thus, low-intensity red light can be considered as a possible radioprotector.

The susceptibility to the development and progression of inflammatory periodontal diseases, which depends on genetic and external factors (smoking, stress, oral hygiene), varies widely. In the development of these diseases, an important role is played not only by the presence of periodontal pathogenic microorganisms, but also by the presence of congenital or acquired immunodeficiency, immunoregulatory defects. The immune system plays a key role in the physiological and pathological processes of periodontal tissues. In this regard, IL17, produced by CD4+ Th cells, which has both Pro-inflammatory and protective activity, is of particular interest in the pathogenesis of periodontitis. The aim of study was to identify the relationship between polymorphic loci of the IL-17A (rs2275913) and MMP-1 (rs1799750) genes and clinical manifestations of chronic periodontitis in petrochemical workers. Dental examination was performed in 92 ethylene oxide production workers with chronic periodontitis and 74 patients with chronic periodontitis who did not come into contact with chemical factors (control group). Genotyping of polymorphisms rs2275913 of the IL17A gene and rs1799750 of the MMP1 gene was performed by allele-specific real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Hygienic assessment of the degree of air pollution of the working area with harmful substances was carried out by gas chromatography according to the guidelines for the determination of harmful substances in the air № 5098-89, № 3119-84. When comparing the results of studies of both groups, there were no statistically significant differences in the frequency distributions of allelic variants and genotypes of the IL-17A and MMP-1 genes. The AA/AG genotypes of the IL-17A gene were associated with an increased risk of severe disease compared to the GG genotype in workers in the main group (OR=6.1; 95% CI 1.33-28.5; p=0.021) and in the control group (OR=7.26; 95% CI 1.34-39.25; p=0.016). Carriers of the A allele in the control group increased the risk of severe chronic periodontitis by 2.4 times compared to carriers of the G allele (OR=2.41; 95% CI 1.19-4.87; p=0.014). During the dental examination of employees of the ethylene oxide plant, the clinical course of periodontal diseases was more severe in comparison with the control group, and the number of patients with severe periodontitis was twice as high. It was found that the AA/AG genotypes of the IL-17A gene and the carrier of the A allele are associated with increased susceptibility to the development of severe chronic periodontitis. The association between the MMP-1 gene polymorphism and the risk of severe forms of chronic periodontitis has not been established. A risk factor for the development of inflammatory periodontal diseases in employees of the petrochemical complex is a complex of harmful production factors.

Introduction. Activation of lipid peroxidation is one of the trigger mechanisms of periodontium injury, which is primary caused by cellular damage. Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) are able to cause damage to a cell as well as final products of lipid peroxidation, including unsaturated aldehydes and other metabolites. Objective. The aim of the research was to determine the role of RONS and accumulation of lipid peroxidation derivatives in initial development and formation of chronical inflammatory process in periodontium. Methods. Experimental periodontitis was modeled in animals by injection of complex mixtures of microorganisms diluted in egg protein into periodontal tissues. The results of biochemical studies of free radical processes activity in blood serum were evaluated by content of diene, triene conjugates, TBA-active products and total quantity of metabolites of nitric oxide (NO2–+NO3–), which were determined on the 7th, 14th and 30th days of the experiment. Results. Generation of active forms of oxygen is more influential, providing longevity of inflammatory process. This pays attention to typical dynamics of changes in active processes of lipid peroxidation in the development and course of experimental periodontitis. The study of inflammatory process with a bacterial-immune component in the rats’ periodontal complex proved accumulation of lipid peroxidation and nitric oxide metabolites in blood serum.Conclusions. The preservation of increased lipid peroxidation and nitric oxide metabolites in blood serum of the experimental animals with acute periodontitis conduce enhance of alteration and delayed healing that result in its sequel into chronical periodontitis.

Abstract High blood cholesterol is often called hypercholesterolemia is a risk factor for the emergence of pathological conditions such as heart and blood vessel disease. Hypercholesterolemia has an important role in the occurrence of damage to the endothelial cells is mainly caused by oxidized LDL. Oxidation of LDL triggers the formation of TNF - ?. Leaves messengers that allegedly contains flavonoids can improve the situation of hypercholesterolemia through the barriers specifically the expression of TNF - ? increased due to hypercholesterolemia. Plants messengers known to contain alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, saponins, polyphenols, calcium oxalate, fats, and essential oil. Flavonoids which has the ability to bind the atom to form free radicals not to excess free radicals, thereby inhibiting the oxidative modification of LDL become ox-LDL so it will not be formed atherosclerosis. This study uses the Randomize pattern Pre and Post Test Control Group Design, using white rats (Rattusnovergicus) with Wistar strain aged 3-4 months, weighing 175-200 grams. Divided into four groups: Group I as a control with placebo, Group II treatment using extracts of ethanol leaves a messenger at a concentration of 10%, Group III treatments using extracts of ethanol leaves a messenger at a concentration of 20%, Group IV is to use the extract ethanol leaves errand at a concentration of 30%. It can be concluded at 4 dose group 30% messengers leaf extract significantly different, p <0.05, so it can be said that the provision of effective messengers extract at a dose of 30%.

Introduction: β-thalassemia major is a hereditary blood disease, a main pathogenetic factor of which is the disruption of the synthesis of β-chains of hemoglobin. Inevitable metabolic disorders that occur during regular blood transfusion form an additional risk of damage and cellular modification of organs and tissues, including the oral cavity. Aim: determination of the pathogenetic role of iron metabolism disorder in the development of chronic inflammatory periodontal diseases in patients with β-thalassemia. Material and methods: 12 patients with β - thalassemia major who had periodontal diseases were examined in the Republican Center of Thalassemia in Baku (average age is 18 ± 1.3 years). The control group consisted of 16 somatically healthy individuals with intact gingiva tissues (the average age is 18.0 ± 0.7 years). Serum Iron, ferritin, hepcidin, total iron-binding capacity (TIBC), level of Il2, Il6, Il10, TNFα were measured from peripheral blood samples. To determine the ultra-structural study of the periodontal tissues in patients with β-thalassemia major, the method of electron microscopy studies of gingiva biopsies was used. Results of the study: The study revealed an increase in the level of serum iron and ferritin against the background of a progressively decreasing TIBC in patients with β-thalassemia major. Also activation of pro-inflammatory cytokines - TNFα, Il6, Il10 was observed in homozygous patients. Metabolic indicators are compared with ultrastructural features of cellular elements of a gum. Signs of accumulation of iron in cellular elements both of its own plate and of the epithelial cover were compared. The presence of iron was recorded in immunocompetent cells - macrophages and lymphocytes. Conclusion: Summarizing the data obtained, we can conclude that deproteinization of ferritin cores and their detection both in the cytoplasm and in the nucleoplasm of immunocompotent cells leads to irreversible degenerative changes in cellular elements of the gingiva. The authors link the development of the generalized inflammatory - degenerative process in the periodontium with revealed exchange -structural violations.

The resveratrol is a polyphenol known for its health benefits, which includes the ability to interfere in the osteoblastogenesis, which may foster adverse immunomodulators effects in the host response to periodontal disease. In the present study we evaluated the appearance of periodontal tissues of rats with experimentally induced periodontitis, by using resveratrol. Twenty-four male Wistar rats were used, in which half of the animals received a ligature around the first lower molars, then forming the groups with experimental periodontitis. Next, four groups were created: 1) Control Group (CON); 2) The Ligature Group (LIG); 3) Group Resveratrol (RSV); 4) Ligature-Resveratrol Group (LIG-RSV). The animals of the Resveratrol groups were daily dosed with 10 mg/kg of body weight of polyphenol orally, during four weeks. After 105 days of experimental period, euthanasia was performed. The results showed a significantly lower alveolar bone loss (p<0.05) in animals that received resveratrol, and still, the polyphenol was able to reduce concentration of interleukin 17 (IL-17) in the groups dosed with it. Our conclusion is that dosing rats with experimental periodontitis with resveratrol could cause a protective effect on the alveolar bone loss, in addition to act positively on the IL-17.

Introduction: Chronic periodontitis is the most common form of periodontitis. The major etiology of periodontitis is gram-negative anaerobic bacteria, such as Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, Treponema denticola, Tannarela forsythia and Porphyromonas gingivalis which locally invade periodontal tissues and affect the immune system cells. Neutrophils and macrophage play central role in inflammation. The objective of this study was to evaluate the quantity of neutrophil and macrophage due to the application of red ginger (Zingiber officinale var rubrum) extract of rat chronic periodontitis. Methods: The type of this research was experimental laboratoris post test only control group. In order to induce experimental periodontitis, the mandibular insisivus was assigned to receive wire 0,008 inch in marginal gingival. Then, red ginger (Zingiber officinale var rubrum) extract that has bioactive compounds was topically administered to the rats. Results: This study showed there were no neutrophils in histopathologic of rat’s periodontal tissue, bu there were amount of macrophage. Then macrophage analyzed by one way ANOVA showed significant differrences in each group (P<0,05) and continued with LSD. Conclusions: there was no effect of red ginger (Zingiber officinale var rubrum) extract toward the quantity of neutrophils, but affected on the number of macrophage.

Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the vascularized supporting tissues of the teeth. Angiogenesis (neovascularization) is the budding of new capillaries and is thought to be an essential process in the development of chronic inflammatory diseases. Inflamed tissues (such as gingiva coincident in periodontal disease) have evidence of enhanced expression of inflammatory mediators, many of which can promote angiogenesis. Of the various cytokines and growth factors that are involved in angiogenesis, the most potent agent that acts specifically on vascular epithelium is Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor. Even though angiogenesis is a prominent feature of both inflammation and healing, information about its role in periodontal lesions is limited. Hence the aim of the present study was the immunohistochemical evaluation of the expression of VEGF in the gingival tissues of chronic and aggressive periodontitis patients compared to the healthy controls. The present study was carried out in a total of 45 subjects with age range of 18-55 years, reporting to the Department of Periodontology, Rajarajeswari Dental College and Hospital, Bangalore. Gingival tissue samples were collected from all the 45 subjects and categorized into three groups based on their clinical findings as follows: Group 1 (Healthy), Group II (Chronic Periodontitis), Group III (Aggressive Periodontitis). Following sample collection, immunohistochemical staining of tissues was carried out and evaluation was done to compare the grades of expression of VEGF in the three groups. The expression of VEGF in blood vessels was also quantitatively evaluated. The results were statistically analyzed using Kruskal Wallis ANOVA and Mann Whitney test. There was a statistically significant higher expression of VEGF in both chronic periodontitis and aggressive periodontitis group as compared to the control group. Aggressive periodontitis cases showed higher grades of expression of VEGF compared to the chronic periodontitis cases and healthy controls. However, the difference in expression of VEGF was not statistically significant between the two forms of periodontitis. The presence of VEGF in both chronic and aggressive periodontitis clearly indicates the potent role played by VEGF as an inflammatory agent in the initiation and progression of periodontal diseases. Thus, VEGF might be used as a potential vascular marker for the assessment of severity and inflammatory status in periodontal disease.

A promising scope of modern scientific research is the use of autologous and allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells for regeneration of periodontal tissues. The aim of the study was to evaluate the nature of morphological changes in the pathologically altered periodontal tissues after injection of a biotransplant containing mesenchymal stem cells of the adipose tissue immobilized on a collagen carrier in an animal experiment. In the experiment, 60 randobbred females of white rats were used as a model, whose adipose tissue was taken to obtain allogenic mesenchymal stem cells. All animals were divided into 5 groups, depending on the planned method of treatment – 10 rats each. The control group consisted of 10 laboratory animals with healthy gingiva. The experimental gingival recession model was created by the V-shaped excision of periodontal tissues. The bioplastic collagen material “Collost” gel 7 % in isolated form determines the fibrosis intensification and serves as a “matrix” for the formation of a fibrous tissue, ensures the adhesion of stem cells and their transformation into pro- and fibroblasts. Injection of a cell transplant suspension into physiological saline activates the processes of cell proliferation and transformation of fibroblast differentiating cells. Suspension of the cell transplant on a sterile bioplastic collagen material “Collost” gel 7 % enhances the effects of gel and stem cells, promotes the leveling of atrophic and dystrophic changes in the gum, strengthening a mechanical component, reducing the recession of the gum and the depth of the gingival pocket.
