Psychological features and hygiene habits in supportive periodontal therapy results
No full textThe goal of this study was to verify the hypothesis that psychological
features are related to periodontal status and to inquire
into the possible pathway through which it occurs. Twenty-six
patients in good systemic health and only suffering from gingivitis
were recruited and treated with an 18-month follow-up.
Clinical recordings, including full-mouth plaque score (FMPS),
full-mouth bleeding score (FMBS), were assessed at baseline and
at three-monthly periods to the end of the follow-up period.
Details on oral health, attitudes and oral hygiene habits were
stated. Psychological profiling was stated. Unfavorable FMPS
statistical outcome was found in correlation to anxiety (A) and
depression (D). Using the oral hygiene self-reported test, we
observed a favorable FMPS statistical significant outcome in
relation to the number of daily brushings (DB), use of toothpaste
(UT), awareness of role of dental plaque (ADP) and professional
dental care (PDC) and need of dental examination (NDE). Moreover,
we had a favorable FMBS outcome in relation to DB and
ADP. Combining psychological and hygiene tests a favorable
FMPS outcome was maintained in relation to UT, ADP, PDC
and NDE. Favorable FMBS was maintained in relation to DB
and ADP. The study supports the hypothesis that A and D can
play an unfavorable role on the periodontal status. Most probably,
but not exclusively, psychological features can influence
hygienic behavior through discontinuity and irregularity.

Inhibition by anti-HLA class I mAb of IL-2 and IL-2 receptor synthesis in lymphocytes stimulated with PHA-P.
No full textInhibition by anti-HLA Class I monoclonal antibody (mAb) Q6/64 of phytohemagglutinin (PHA)-P-induced peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PMBC) proliferation is associated with a reduction of Tac expression and interleukin 2 (IL-2) secretion. To analyze the mechanism(s) underlying the latter phenomena, the Tac gene and IL-2 gene transcription was analyzed by a nuclear transcription assay. No synthesis of Tac and IL-2 mRNA was detected in PBMC stimulated with PHA-P in the presence of mAb Q6/64. In conjunction with our recently published data, these results indicate that the blocking by anti-HLA Class I mAb of PHA-P-induced PBMC proliferation reflects an inhibitory effect within the signal transduction pathway leading to transcriptional activation of IL-2 and IL-2 receptor genes
CD40 and B chronic lymphocytic leukemia cell response to fludarabine: the influence of NF-kappaB/Rel transcription factors on chemotherapy-induced apoptosis.
No full textThe levels of tumour necrosis factor receptor (TNF-R) superfamily members can be altered in lymphoid leukemias, indicating a possible role of such molecules in the biology of these neoplasias. In B chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells, the CD40/CD40L system has been shown to be effective in inhibiting the apoptotic response to fludarabine. The modulation of apoptosis relied on the CD40-induced activity of NF-kappaB/Rel transcription factors. The anti-apoptotic effect of CD40 was abolished using a phosphorothioate kappaB decoy oligodeoxynucleotide. These findings illustrate an example of the biological activity of TNF-R-like molecules in leukemias. They also show the influence of NF-kappaB/Rel activity on leukemic cell response to apoptogenic agen
