SCREENING OF EPIGENETIC BIOMARKERS (miRNAs) IN THE GINGIVAL SULCUS
Screening of Epigenetic Biomarkers (miRNA) in the Gingival Sulcus
Epigenetics has produced a high impact in biomedical research and is providing new biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of diseases. In addition, epigenetics is also contributing to analyze the molecular causes underlying diseases, even so periodontal diseases as it has been recently reviewed. In this regard, changes in the methylation of genes codifying for pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines has been previously reported. miRNAs are very promising biomolecules to be used as biomarkers because miRNAs act as signaling molecules and participate in many biological processes, such as cellular development, differentiation, and apoptosis. The high stability of circulating miRNAs in the RNase-rich environment of the bloodstream and also in different biospecimens used in clinical routine, make these biomolecules an optimal source of candidate biomarkers. In fact, miRNAs have demonstrated their value as dynamic biomarkers in a wide variety of human diseases. Therefore, miRNAs can be used for the monitoring of periodontal disease.
The objective of this research is to analyze the levels of bone remodeling RANKL / OPG biomolecular markers, and the epigenetic regulation of these proteins to identify promising biomarkers of periodontal disease.
Material and Methods. Levels of RANKL and OPG will be measured in the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) to assess the state of bone. These samples will be sent to the lab for quantification by ELISA method.
Furthermore, new epigenetic biomarkers based on the identification of high stable microRNAs will be identified by qRT-PCR in GCF as feasible tools for diagnosis and monitoring of wide range of disease, including periodontal disease.

- 30-60 years.
Periodontally healthy group:
1. Absence of clinical and radiographical periodontal pathology.
Exclusion Criteria:
Group of periodontal patients:
- Aggressive Periodontal Disease (Armitage, 1999).
- Patients with controlled periodontal disease with plaque and gingival indexes ≤20%.
- Patients with systemic diseases or taking medications that alter bone metabolism (Osteoporosis, arthritis, hormonal treatment, bisphosphonates, anti-inflammatory, immunosuppressants, etc ...).
- Patients with antibiotic, anti-inflammatory or contraceptive treatment in the previous 3 months or taking antiaggregants in the last 7 days before taking the sample.
- Smokers (> 10 cig. /day).

Periodontal patients.
Taking gingival Crevicular fluid.

Once the anamnesis has been done, all the records corresponding to the Gingival Index and Plaque Index, in both groups are taken. Subsequently, samples of gingival crevicular fluid are taken for the screening of epigenetic biomarkers. |

Probing depth.
기간: 2 years.
|
Probing depth will be measured in six sites (disto-buccal, mid-buccal, mesio-buccal, disto-palatal, mid-palatal and mesio- palatal) of every teeth with a Williams Probe PQ-OW 208 396.
This probe is used by gently hanging pressure into a pocket measuring 20 grams in weight.

Bleeding on probing.
기간: 2 years.
|
Full mouth bleeding score (FMBS) will be calculated based on scores of 0 (no bleeding) or 1 (bleeding) after probing for PD.
The usual thing to do is to measure at 4 points for each tooth but we have modified the index and we valorate them at 6 points.
(disto-buccal, mid-buccal, mesio-buccal, disto-palatal, mid-palatal and mesio- palatal).

Clinical recession.
기간: 2 years.
|
Clinical recession will be measured in the same six sites as before between the Amelocemental junction and the gingival margin.

Plaque score of Silness y löe: (1964)
기간: 2 years.
|
The Plaque will be scored as follows: Score 0 = No plaque Score 1 = A film of plaque adhering to the free gingival margin and adjacent area of the tooth. The plaque may be seen in situ only after application of disclosing solution or by using the probe on the tooth surface. Score 2 = Moderate accumulation of soft deposits within the gingival pocket, or on the tooth and gingival margin, which can be seen with the naked eye. Score 3 = Abundance of soft matter within the gingival pocket and/or on the tooth and gingival margin. The usual thing to do is to evaluate at 4 points for each tooth but we have modified the index and we will evaluate at 6 points. (disto-buccal, mid-buccal, mesio-buccal, disto-palatal, mid-palatal and mesio- palatal) |

Furcation affection.
기간: 2 years.
|
Class I: The level of bone loss allows for the insertion of the periodontal Nabers probe into the concavity of the root trunk. Furcation defect is less than 3 mm is depth. Class II The level of bone loss allows for the insertion of a periodontal probe into the furcation area between the roots. Furcation defect is at least 3 mm in depth (and thus, in general, surpassing half of the buccolingual thickness of the tooth) but not through-and-through (i.e. there is still some interradicular bone attached to the angle of the furcation. 15 Class III The level of bone loss allows for "through and through" access of the furcation area. Buccal to lingual on lower molars. Buccal to mesio-palatal and disto-palatal on upper molars. Furcation defect encompassing the entire width of the tooth so that no bone is attached to the angle of the furcation. |
