17
Q

What are prostaglandins

A

Lipid compound from arachadonic acid
Metabolized by COX
Increase vasodilation
Induce MMP and bone resorption

18
Q

What are MMP

A

Enzymes that break down structural proteins like collagens

19
Q

What are the inflamm mediators in perio disease

A

Interleukin
TNF Alpha
Prostaglandin
Chemokines

20
Q

What are interleukins

A

Family of cytokines linked to innate immune response

21
Q

What is TNF alpha

A

Inflamm mediator
Increases neutrophil activity
TNF Alpha - Neutrophils

22
Q

What makes prostaglandin

A

Macrophage

Fibroblast

23
Q

What are chemokines

A

Chemotactic molecules

Leukocyte migration role

24
Q

How does a pocket develop

A

Biofilm causes inflamm which causes sulcus to deepen

Defense cells cause CT breakdown apical movement of JE

25
Q

What is RANKL

A

Pro osteoclast that regulates bone formation

26
Q

Discuss the resolution of inflammation

A

Active process
Lipoxins
Resolvins
Protectins

27
Q

What is innate immunity

A

Non specific barrier to infection
Lysozyme
Mucin
Peroxidise

28
Q

What are the defensive components of saliva

A
Antibodies
Lactoferrin
Mucin
Lysozyme
Perioxidase
29
Q

What is GCF defensive function

A

Antibodies
Neutrophils
Flushing action

30
Q

What is epithelial defensive tissue

A

Keratin is the barrier

31
Q

What are senteniel cells

A

Macrophage and dendritic cells

Provide immediate and adaptive immunity

32
Q

What are neutophils

A

Professional phagocyte

Low grade defense

33
Q

What is adaptive immunity

A

Focused intense defence
Slower and more complex
Anti gen specific
Chronic perio is adaptive

34
Q

What are antigen presenting cells

A

B Cell
Macro
Dendritic
Go to T Cell inlymph node

35
Q

how do antigen presenting cells function

A

Go to lymph node and react with T Cells

36
Q

What are T cells

A

Adaptive immune cells in bone marrow to thymus

37
Q

What are antibodies

A

Endpoint in B cell activation

Mostly IgG

38
Q

Discuss Host susceptbility

A

Complex immune and inflamm process
Some pt hyper respond
Response can be disproportionate

39
Q

What is the role of Toll like Receptors

A

proteins on sentinel cell that recognizes pathogens

40
Q

What are NETS

A

Neutrophil extra cellular traps

41
Q

Antibodies to perio dx

A

IgG

some IgA and IgM

42
Q

What antibody in saliva

A

IgA
