Chronic inflammatory diseases are complex diseases Interactions between genetic and environmental factors Infections Smoking Diet Stress ……
Examples complex diseases • heart diseases • rheumatoid arthritis • Crohn’s disease • gastric ulcers • periodontitis
Complex human diseases • vary in severity and age of onset • various biological pathways • caused by numerous genes, • each with a small overall • contribution and relative risk: • POLYGENIC • (Tabor et al. 2002, Nature Reviews Genetics)
We have entered the NoEINFOBIOMED with PERIODONTITIS as model for chronic inflammatory diseases Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the supporting tissues of the teeth Prevalence: 10-15%
periodontitis is an excellent model for inflammatory diseases Infectious component Genetic susceptibility Environmental influences Relative high prevalence Easy access to samples Patient cooperation Existence of network: within university university to specialists
