Might smoking assuage the pro‐inflammatory effect of diabetes in periodontal sites?

Objectives This study evaluated the effects of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM), smoking, and these two factors combined on gingival crevicular fluid levels and ratios of pro‐/anti‐inflammatory cytokines. Associations between cytokines with each other and with key periodontal pathogens in periodontal s...

Description
Summary:Objectives This study evaluated the effects of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM), smoking, and these two factors combined on gingival crevicular fluid levels and ratios of pro‐/anti‐inflammatory cytokines. Associations between cytokines with each other and with key periodontal pathogens in periodontal sites under the challenge of one or both of these risk factors were also assessed. Methods A total of 102 subjects with periodontitis were included in this cross‐sectional study and assigned to one of the following groups: non‐diabetic non‐smokers (control group, n = 25), non‐smokers with DM (DM group, n = 30), non‐diabetic smokers (S group, n = 26), and smokers with DM (S + DM group, n = 21). The levels of 13 pro‐inflammatory (IFN‐γ, TNF‐α, MIP‐1α, GM‐CSF, IL‐1β, IL‐2, IL‐6, IL‐7, IL‐8, IL‐12, IL‐17, IL‐21, and IL‐23) and 5 anti‐inflammatory (IL‐4, IL‐5, IL‐10, IL‐13, and TGF‐β) cytokines were assessed in healthy and diseased sites, using multiplex immunoassay. Ratios of pro‐/anti‐inflammatory cytokines were obtained in all possible permutations. The levels of 7 key periodontal pathogens were evaluated by qPCR. Results Overall, the ratios of pro‐/anti‐inflammatory cytokines were higher in healthy and diseased sites of the DM group and in healthy sites of the S + DM group, and lower in diseased sites of the S group, compared with the control (p
