Brief Summary: Recently a key role played in the ethiology of periodontitis has been highlighted by a subtype of stem cells derived from bone marrow the circulating endothelial progenitor cells EPCs EPCs possess the ability to express surface antigens of endothelial and hematopoietic stem cells and to assist in maintaining vascular integrity and the repair mechanism of the endothelium Among the main markers for the analysis of EPCs levels are CD34 CD133 and the kinase insert domain-containing receptor KDR CD34 and CD133 originate from hematopoietic stem cell antigens whereas KDR is a specific marker of endothelial cells More specifically CD34 and CD133 KDR allows less mature and mature EPCs to be evaluated
Detailed Description: The aim of the present study was to investigate the association between endothelial progenitor cells EPCs levels subtype CD133KDR in patients with periodontitis

Furthermore the objective was to determine if the periodontal status influenced CD133KDR levels
