Transcriptomics and methylomics in chronic periodontitis with tobacco use: a pilot study

Abstract Background Accumulating evidence suggests that tobacco smoking affects the susceptibility to and severity of chronic periodontitis. Epigenetics may explain the role of smoking in the development and progress of periodontal disease. In this study, we performed transcriptomic and methylomic a...
