CD26 immuno-expression and periodontal disease progression
Immunological mechanisms participate in the pathogenesis of human chronic inflammatory periodontal disease (CIPD). Human CD4+
lymphocytes express functionally heterogeneous profiles of cytokine production. CD26 is an integral membrane glycoprotein, that is, a marker of Th1-like cytokine development. The purpose of the present study was to compare the immuno-expression of CD26 receptor in periodontal sites with and without clinical attachment loss (CAL). Five patients with rapidly progressing
periodontitis and one with juvenile periodontitis were investigated. Each patient presented at least one site with and without CAL. Ten sites with CAL and nine without any CAL were biopsied, followed by the immunohistochemical identification of the CD26 receptor using the MIB-DS2/7 antibody. The results
demonstrated that the percentage of positive cells for this antigen in the periodontal sites with CAL was not significantly different from those without attachment loss. Therefore, Th1 cell impairment may not be directly involved with periodontal attachment loss.
