Regulation of Ghrelin Receptor by Periodontal Bacteria In Vitro and In Vivo

Regulation of Ghrelin Receptor by Periodontal Bacteria In Vitro and In Vivo

Ghrelin plays a major role in obesity-related diseases which have been shown to be associated with periodontitis. This study sought to analyze the expression of the functional receptor for ghrelin (GHS-R1a) in periodontal cells and tissues under microbial conditions in vitro and in vivo. The GHS-R1a...
