| Abstract | Background Increasing evidence supports associations between periodontal disease and coronary heart disease (CHD). This case–control study evaluated whether inflammatory regulator, microRNA-155 (miR-155), could be utilised as a biomarker of periodontitis and/or CHD. Methods Of 120 participants, 30 patients had clinically healthy periodontium (controls, C), 30 patients had generalized periodontitis (P), 30 patients had CHD and clinically healthy periodontium (AS-C); and 30 patients had CHD with generalized periodontitis (AS-P). Patient demographic and periodontal characteristics (plaque index, bleeding on probing, probing pocket depth and clinical attachment loss), were collected. Patient whole blood and saliva levels of miR-155 and pro-inflammatory cytokine (interleukin-1β), were quantified by quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). One-way ANOVA with post-hoc Tukey test was used to determine differences among the four groups. Chi Square test was used for participant gender comparisons. Pearson correlation tests and multiple linear regression analyses were used to assess associations between the demographic and clinical variables analysed, versus IL-1β and miR-155 levels. miR-155 and IL-1β accuracy in differentiating healthy versus other patient groups were analysed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, by calculating area under the curve (AUC) values and sensitivity and specificity cut-off points using Youden’s index. Statistical tests of sensitivity and specificity were conducted using the McNemar test. Results Whole blood miR-155 levels were elevated in periodontitis/non-periodontitis patients with CHD (AS-P, AS-C), and periodontitis patients alone (P) (p < 0.001). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) and area under the curve (AUC) analyses confirmed miR-155 accuracy in discriminating P, AS-C and AS-P groups (AUC 0.6861–0.9944, p < 0.0001–0.05), coupled with high sensitivity (76.7–100.0%), specificity (53.3–96.7%) and cut-off points (> 0.955- > 2.915 a.u.; p < 0.0001). miR-155 levels further distinguished between CHD (AS-C, AS-P) and periodontitis (P) patients (AUC ≥ 0.8378, sensitivity ≥ 88.7%, specificity ≥ 73.3%, cut-off > 2.82 a.u; p < 0.0001), and between AS-C and AS-P patients (AUC 0.7578, sensitivity 80.0%, specificity 50.0%, cut-off > 7.065 a.u; p < 0.001). Subsequent analyses identified positive correlations between miR-155 and the various patient demographics, salivary interleukin-1β and periodontal parameters assessed. Conclusions This study advocates miR-155 as an accurate diagnostic/prognostic biomarker of periodontitis and/or CHD severity, thereby improving detection and treatment for both conditions. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
