Abstract:
Objective:To study the correlation of elastase(EA) and ? 1-antitrypsin (? 1-AT) level in gingival crevicular fluid(GCF) of different periodontal status and their roles in periodontal inflammatary pathogenesis. Methods: 62 volunteers aged 45~51 years old were enroled.Their periodental status were examined and grouped into healthy periodontium (H),8 cases,marginal gingivitis (MG),12 cases,mild chronic periodontitis (MCP),20 cases and advanced chronic periodontitis (ACP),22 cases.EA in GCF were measured with a chromogenic low molecular weight substrate reaction and the ? 1-AT with ELISA. Results: Significantly positive correlation was found between GCF-EA activity and clinical periodontal parameters (P
