Quantitative proteomic analysis of gingival crevicular fluids from deciduous and permanent teeth

Summary: | Aim
Gingivitis commonly progresses to periodontitis in permanent dentition but rarely in deciduous teeth. Little is known about the biochemical differences between gingiva of deciduous and permanent teeth. Here, we compared the protein profiles of gingival crevicular fluids (GCF) from the gingiva of deciduous and permanent teeth.
Materials and Methods
Forty children with mixed dentition (Hellman's dental age IIIA) were selected and GCF samples were collected from deciduous cuspids and central incisors in the maxilla. Pairs of GCF samples were labelled using isobaric tags to permit quantitative comparison of protein abundance in the samples using liquid chromatography‐electron spray ionization‐tandem mass spectrometry.
Results
Sixty‐two proteins were upregulated in deciduous teeth GCF and 54 in permanent teeth GCF. In particular, neutrophil‐derived proteins, including myeloperoxidase and lactoferrin, were repeatedly higher in deciduous teeth GCF than in permanent teeth GCF. These differences were verified using ELISA (p |
