Abstract EN

Background & Objective: The role of Interleukin-1 genes in the association between chronic periodontitis and atherosclerosis has been under debate.

The purpose of this study is to compare the existence of interleukin1 genes polymorphism in the chronic periodontitis subjects with and without atherosclerosis.

Material& methods: 200 chronic periodontitis patients (184 male, 16 female ,mean age 52.61) were divided into two groups: first group 100 subjects with atherosclerosis (92 male, 8 female, mean age 52.06); second group 100 subjects without atherosclerosis (92 male, 8 female, mean age 53.16).

Probing depth and clinical attachment loss were performed for each patient.

Alveolar bone loss was performed for the patients using apical digital radiography.

Blood samples were collected from the patients for genotyping analysis of IL1α+4845, IL-1ß+3954, IL-1ß-511 and IL-1RN VNTR using PCR-RFLP technique.

The Mann-Whitney U and Chai square tests were used for the statistical study (P<0.05) with the computer program SPSS.V17.

Results: Clinical attachment loss and alveolar bone loss were significantly higher in the atherosclerosis group.

An association between IL-1α+4845 genotypes and atherosclerosis was shown; genotype 1.1 was higher significantly in the atherosclerosis and periodontitis group.

An association between IL-1α +4845, IL1 ß+3954, IL-1ß-511 genotypes and alveolar bone loss was also shown.

An association between IL1α+4845, IL-1ß-511 genotypes and both alveolar bone loss and atherosclerosis was also shown.

Conclusion: The IL-1α+4845, IL-1ß-511 genotypes may play a role in the association between chronic periodontitis and atherosclerosis in the studied sample
