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. Background Autophagy is a cellular physiologic mechanism to maintain tissue homeostasis, while deficient autophagic r...

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.
