Abstract

Interleukin-17 (IL-17), the prototype cytokine produced by the Th17 subset of T-helper cells, plays a role in inflammatory responses, autoimmunity, and antimicrobial responses in a variety of infectious and inflammatory diseases. In view of the inflammatory nature and severity of aggressive periodontitis, we hypothesized that IL-17 might be detected in sera from patients with aggressive periodontitis. We used ELISA to measure IL-17 serum concentrations from 67 periodontally healthy (NP) individuals and from 53 patients with localized (LAgP) and 49 patients with generalized (GAgP) aggressive periodontitis. IL-17 was barely detectable in sera from periodontally healthy individuals (1.9 +/- 2.0 pg/mL), but was present at significantly higher concentrations in sera from those with LAgP (7.6 +/- 2.2 pg/mL) and GAgP (17.1 +/- 2.3 pg/mL). Multivariate analyses demonstrated associations of IL-17 concentrations with periodontal attachment loss, but not with current smoking. Therefore, Th17 responses may be characteristic of AgP, and IL-17 may play a role in the pathogenesis of aggressive periodontitis.
