Features of the Content of Matrix Metalloproteinases Ммр-9 and Ммр-2 in Mixed Saliva of Young Individuals With Dental Caries Against the Background of Different Level of 25(oh) Vitamin D in the Body

Abstract

The content ofММР-9 and ММР-2 in oral fluid of 105 individuals between the ages of 19 and 23 has been researched.Of these, 42 people are individuals with dental caries and normal level of the active form of vitamin Din serum (25(OH)D >30ng/mL) and 42 people - with 25(OH)D <30 ng/mL level.The control group was composed of 21 individuals with low DMFt index (1,5) and a normal level of 25(OH)D in blood. It has been established that the level of ММР-9 in mixed salivaincreases against the background of dental caries,while the content of ММР-9 and ММР-2 increasessignificantlyamidthe lack and deficiency of25(OH)Din the body. Inverse correlations between the 25(OH)D level in serum and the value ofmatrix metalloproteinasesin saliva have been revealed: noticeable - with the amount of MMP-9 and moderate- with the concentration of MMP-2.
