ABSTRACT
Objective:
To study the expression of Wnt5a in gingival tissues of the patients with chronic periodontitis.Methods:
Wnt5a expression was tested with RT-PCR and Western-Blot in gingival tissues in 20 cases of chronic periodontitis and 20 correspond-ing normal tissues.Results:
In the gingival tissues of chronic periodontitis cases Wnt5a overexpression was found comparing with nor-mal tissues(P <0.05).The higher clinical attachment loss was correlated with the higher expression of Wnt5a.Conclusion:
Wnt5a may affect the course of the inflammatory process and alveolar bone destruction in patients with chronic periodontitis.
