Tissue-Associated Plaque (Biofilm)
|
|
This degrades collagen fibers, the major-formed elements in gingiva and periodontal ligament. Its produced by both bacteria and the host cells in the body (eg. PMNs and Fibroblasts) and is included in the family of enzymes called matrix metalloproteinases.
|
Collagenase
|
|
This breaks down hyaluronic acid, an important polysaccharide (carbohydrate) that helps hold tissue and cells together. It can act as a "spreading" factor to increase tissue permeability. This enzyme is also produced both by bacteria and by the host.
|
Hyaluronidase
|
|
This breaks apart chondroitin sulfate, another cell and tissue cementing polysaccharide (carbohydrate)
|
Chondroitin Sulfatase
|
|
These are a large group of enzymes that contribute to the breakdown of noncollagenous proteins (proteiens in the connective tissue other than collagen) and increase capillary permeability.
|
Proteases
|
|
This affects the elastin (elastic) fibers of the mucosa and blood vessels, thereby reducing tissue integrity.
|
Elastases
|
|
Name the risk factors (markers) and indicators for Periodontal Diseases
|
