Cytokines in Periodontology

Cytokines in Periodontology provides a comprehensive exploration of the role of cytokines in periodontal health and disease, tracing their influence from immune regulation and periodontal inflammation to connective-tissue destruction, bone remodeling, resolution, and tissue regeneration.The book brings together fundamental cytokine biology with contemporary concepts including cytokine biomarkers, host modulation therapy, pro-resolving mediators, periodontal-systemic interactions, cytokine-microbiome interactions, genetic and epigenetic regulation, precision periodontology, regenerative approaches, and cytokine-targeted therapeutics.By connecting molecular mechanisms with periodontal pathogenesis and emerging clinical applications, this book serves as a valuable reference for postgraduate students, periodontists, clinicians, researchers, and academicians, while highlighting the expanding role of cytokine research in shaping the future of periodontal diagnosis and therapy.
