Pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokine expression in post-treatment apical periodontitis

Pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokine expression in post-treatment apical periodontitis

Abstract Objective: This study evaluated the expression of pro-inflammatory (IL-1β, IL-6, IFN-γ and TNF-α) and anti-inflammatory (IL-4 and TGF-β) cytokines in apical periodontitis lesions. Correlations between these cytokines and clinical and cone-beam computed tomographic (CBCT) data were also ass...
