20 patients with Stage III Grade B periodontitis (P) and 20 periodontally healthy individuals (control;C) were included in this study. Clinical periodontal parameters were measured. Saliva and serum levels of SIRT6, LXA4 and CASP8 were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
It has been stated that Sirtuin-6 (SIRT6) play a important role in regulation of inflammation, energy metabolism, homeostasis and apoptosis, and SIRT6 may be assosiciated with many diseases. The aim of this study was to evaluate saliva and serum SIRT6, Lipoxin A4 (LXA4) and Caspase-8 (CASP8) levels in correlation with periodontal clinical status in patients with periodontitis and healthy subjects
