Identification Of Serum Anti-Carbamylated Protein Antibodies In Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients With Periodontitis: A Pilot Study, Shruthi Venu Gopal
Identification Of Serum Anti-Carbamylated Protein Antibodies In Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients With Periodontitis: A Pilot Study, Shruthi Venu Gopal

Objectives: In chronic diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA), carbamylation may cause the production of autoantibodies such as the anti-carbamylated protein antibody (anti-CarP) and protein malfunctioning. However, its relation to periodontitis (PD) remains unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the serum levels of anti-carbamylated protein antibodies (anti-CarP) in four groups of participants, the RAPD, RA, PD, and healthy groups and correlate the findings with rheumatological parameters. Materials and methods: This pilot study included a total of 20 participants, with 5 participants each in groups diagnosed with RA and PD (RAPD), only RA, only PD and controls who were free …
Polymicrobial Interactions Between Selected Microbes Of Oral Biofilm And Differential Expression Of Als Genes And Their Related Proteins, Fahim Ayesha
Student Works (2020-2029)
More than 700 different types of microorganisms dwell in human oral mucosal surfaces. The interactions between these microorganisms contribute to formation of polymicrobial communities on hard and soft tissues as well as on dentures and implants. Candida albicans, a pleomorphic fungus inhabiting oral and gastrointestinal (GIT) mucosa becomes pathogenic in favourable conditions causing local or systemic disease. Since streptococci are early colonisers, the ability of Candida albicans to adhere to streptococci paves the way for an additional surface for candidal colonization and propagation. This study was aimed to investigate polymicrobial interactions between C. albicans, S. sanguinis and S. mitis on …
Potential Of Human Deciduous Periodontal Ligament Stem Cells For Use In Hepatic Lineage And Their Exosome Application On Hepatic Injuries, R. Vasanthan Punitha
Potential Of Human Deciduous Periodontal Ligament Stem Cells For Use In Hepatic Lineage And Their Exosome Application On Hepatic Injuries, R. Vasanthan Punitha
Student Works (2020-2029)
Introduction: Human deciduous periodontal ligament stem cells represent as another source of stem cells from the dental origin. These cells were shown to have multi-potential attributes and also self renewing ability. These easily accessible stem cells candidate could also resolve issues concerning ethical and compatability for the use in regenerative purposes. However, their efficiency towards hepatic lineage differentiation has not been addressed so far. Meanwhile, the main contributor for regenerative properties were supposedly mediated by soluble factors and extracellular vesicles such as exosomes secreted by cells. Objectives: The aims of this study are to isolate, characterize and also to investigate …
Single Nucleotide Polymorphism Of Prostaglandin-Endoperoxide Synthase (Ptgs2) And Defensin Beta 1 (Defb1) Genes In Malay Chronic Periodontitis Subjects, Jagender Singh Jasmin Kaur
Single Nucleotide Polymorphism Of Prostaglandin-Endoperoxide Synthase (Ptgs2) And Defensin Beta 1 (Defb1) Genes In Malay Chronic Periodontitis Subjects, Jagender Singh Jasmin Kaur

The association of prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 (PTGS2) and defensin beta 1 (DEFB1) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) with chronic periodontitis (CP) have been widely studied amongst different ethnic groups such as the Chinese and European population. Thus far, no study has been done on the Malay ethnic group. Hence, this study assessed the allele and genotype frequencies of PTGS2 and DEFB1 variants in subjects with CP and periodontally healthy individuals in Malaysian Malays. Samples of 78 Malay CP subjects and 62 periodontally healthy controls were obtained from Malaysian Periodontal Database and Biobanking system (MPDBS) for this study. DNA samples were genotyped …
