Gingival tissue autophagy pathway gene expression profiles in periodontitis and aging
Objective We hypothesized that autophagy‐related genes will be differentially expressed in periodontitis, suggesting an impaired gingival autophagic response associated with disease.

Summary: | Objective
We hypothesized that autophagy‐related genes will be differentially expressed in periodontitis, suggesting an impaired gingival autophagic response associated with disease.
Background
Autophagy is a cellular physiologic mechanism to maintain tissue homeostasis, while deficient autophagic responses increase inflammation and susceptibility to infection.
Methods
Rhesus monkeys [ |
