S100A2 level changes are related to human periodontitis

Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease, which, when severe, can result in tooth loss, that affects the quality of life. S100A2 was previously identified as a component of gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) via proteome analysis, but it has not been investigated whether S100A2 plays a role in periodontitis. In this study, we analyzed mRNA expression of S100A2 in gingival tissues from normal and classified periodontal disease patients and compared...
