Correlation of salivary cytokine IL-17A and 1,25 dihydroxycholecalciferol in patients undergoing orthodontic treatment
Abstract
The management of malocclusion has developed greatly in terms of treatment simulation and biomechanics, but treatment duration has been a great concern to the clinician as well as the patient. 1-25dihydroxycholecalciferol (biologically active form of Vitamin D) stimulates both osteoclasts and osteoblasts and was found to be the most significant in Orthodontic Tooth Movement acceleration. Inflammatory cytokines like IL-17A also play an important role in osteoclastogenesis and can enhance the rate of Orthodontic Tooth Movement. To perform a simultaneous evaluation of pro-inflammatory salivary cytokine IL-17A and salivary 1-25dihydroxycholecalciferol and to correlate their role on orthodontic tooth movement. A prospective cohort study was conducted among n = 97 patients. Saliva samples were collected from the patients at three phases of the orthodontic treatment, centrifuged and stored at 4℃ for evaluation of salivary 1-25dihydroxycholecalciferol levels and Pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-17A using ELISA. The mean salivary 1-25dihydoxycholecalciferol levels were 41.250 ng/ml, 33.246 ng/ml and 35.043 ng/ml during the initial phase, lag phase and post lag phase of orthodontic treatment. The mean pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-17 A levels were 107.79 pg/ml, 102.98 pg/ml and 66.156 pg/ml during the initial phase, lag phase and post lag phase of orthodontic treatment. There was a correlation between the salivary 1-25dihydroxycholecalciferol level and salivary cytokine IL-17A levels…
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a cohort study, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 97 participants or records.
