Comparison of the Serum Immunoglobulin IgM Level in Diabetic and Nondiabetic Patients with Chronic Periodontitis

Abstract: In the present study, significantly high concentrations of the IgM in serum of diabetic and nondiabetic patients were found as compared to the healthy subjects who had neither diabetes nor periodontitis. CLINICAL SIGNIFCANCE: By this study, we can emphasize on the fact of the importance of the immune system and its correlation with glycemic control, especially in patients diagnosed with periodontitis, also suggests that the alteration in immune response in poorly controlled diabetic patients may contribute to … Show more

“…Immunoglobulins G, A, and M have been reported to be present in statistically signifi cant higher levels in long-lasting (months of) poor control diabetic patients compared to healthy controls. 24,25 The observations of the present study conclude the possible relationship associated with increased rate of tissue destruction in diabetic patients with periodontitis. The present study indicates that poor glycemic control may be associated with the increase in serum antibodies.…”

“…It is well known that bacterial infection is the main cause of periodontal disease, and the bacterial colonization of actinomycetes and Porphyromonas gingivalis is the main cause of periodontitis[9,10]. On the one hand, the change of immune response in diabetic patients may cause periodontitis[11]. On the other hand, the severity of periodontal disease may also be related to the expression of multiple metalloproteinase genes in the oral mucosal epithelium[12].…”
