“…This observation correlates with the finding that EGF-dependent signaling is involved in regulation of numerous biological pathways in the periodontium, including regulation of cell proliferation, migration, and differentiation (7,16,20). Thus, the importance of EGF in periodontal health is highlighted by the fact that a single-nucleotide polymorphism within the EGF gene has been found to be associated with development of severe chronic periodontitis (21).…”

“…Although the host's responses to bacterial challenge in periodontal tissues vary depending on the individual immune genetic heritage; so the genetic factors explain the clinical variability in periodontitis. The evidence for a genetic susceptibility to periodontitis comes from twins (1,2) and association studies (3,4). However, the genetic basis has not been clearly defined.…”

“…Patients with periodontal pockets <5 mm have a reduced EGF concentration compared to patients with periodontal pockets >5 mm. Additionally a single nucleotide mutation within the EGF coding sequence was associated with the development of severe chronic periodontitis [11]. Concerning EGFR, its expression seemed to be limited to the gingival epithelium, since a very low level of expression appeared within the periodontal ligament.…”
