Patent Searching and Data


Title:
METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING CELLS CAUSING PERIODONTITIS, METHOD FOR SCREENING PERIODONTITIS THERAPEUTICS, METHOD FOR TESTING PERIODONTITIS, AND TEST KIT
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2016/152554
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Established are an analysis of markers of aggressive fibroblasts which are cells that cause periodontitis, screening of novel periodontitis therapeutics, a test method, and a test kit. As a result of analyzing aggressive fibroblasts, it has become apparent that expression from the P1 promoter of RUNX2 and expression of DLX5 are decreased to a greater extent than in normal gingival fibroblasts. An increase in expression of FLT1 was also seen. Using these expressions characteristic of aggressive fibroblasts as markers makes possible the identification of aggressive fibroblasts, a method for screening therapeutics, and a test method.
