Possible Roles of IL-33 in Periodontal Diseases: Porphyromonas gingivalis Induced IL-33 in Human Gingival Epithelial Cells

Abstract: In the oral mucosa, epithelial cells work not only as a physical barrier to pathogens, but also play a pivotal role in initiating immune responses to microbes. Interleukin (IL)-33, a member of the IL-1 family, is constitutively expressed in epithelial cells and amplifies Th2-type inflammatory immune responses. We found that IL-33 was detected in the inflamed gingival epithelium from chronic periodontitis patients, and periodontopathic Porphyromonas gingivalis strongly increased expressions of IL-33 mRNA and mo… Show more

“…The presence of IL‐33 within the oral tissues was recently demonstrated. While periodontal pathogenic bacteria Porphyromonas gingivalis strongly stimulated IL‐33 mRNA expression in gingival epithelial cells, IL‐33 expression is elevated in the inflamed gingival crevicular fluid and gingival epithelium of chronic periodontitis patients . Association of increased IL‐33 level with periodontitis and alveolar bone resorption and loss was also reported .…”
