Gingival crevicular fluid and its immune mediators in the proteomic era

Bostanci, Nagihan, Belibasakis, Georgios N.·2018·Periodontology 2000

Abstract

The discovery of biomarkers for periodontal disease requires an in‐depth understanding of the molecular basis of the initiation and progression of the disease. The gingival crevicular fluid is a biological medium suitable for identifying and measuring such biomarkers because it can be easily and noninvasively sampled from the immediate vicinity of the affected tissues. An ever‐expanding pool of gingival crevicular fluid proteins associated with periodontal health or disease has been catalogued over the years, particularly with the recent implementation of proteomic technologies. ‘Proteomics’ refers to the large‐scale study of entire arrays of proteins expressed by a genome and present in a cell, tissue, biological fluid or organism. Hence, such technologies provide a broad qualitative and quantitative insight of the proteins present in gingival crevicular fluid. Pertinent studies have amassed on the information gathered to date on protein signatures in periodontal health and disease, and have confirmed the nature of the immunological host response. This review discusses the application of proteomic technologies in characterizing the molecular networks present in gingival crevicular fluid, their potential for discovery of biomarkers that are meaningful for clinical practice, and the associated technical challenges.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The absorption technique through paper strips is the easiest and most accurate method for obtaining gingival crevicular fluid exudate.

    “GCF collection methods include intracrevicular lavage technique, microcapillary technique and absorption technique through the use of paper strips being the easiest and most accurate method for obtaining such exudate [90].”
  • Proteomic applications have been applied to understand changes in the proteome that diverge states of periodontal health from disease and to further characterize various periodontal disease states, including gingivitis, mild, moderate, chronic, and aggressive periodontitis.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
