Objectives The aim of this study was to estimate tissue and gingival crevicular fluid ( GCF) levels of the oxidative stress marker 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8- OHdG) in premenopausal, perimenopausal and postmenopausal women with chronic periodontitis. Background Oxidative stress has been implicated in the etiopathogenesis of periodontitis and menopause induces oxidative stress. Materials and methods According to Stages of Reproductive Aging Workshop ( STRAW) criteria, women diagnosed with periodontitis were subdivided into three groups of 31 participants each 1. Premenopausal 2. Perimenopausal and 3. Postmenopausal. GCF and gingival tissue samples were collected from sites with maximum probing depth. Tissue DNA was extracted from the gingival sample and 8- OHdG in the extracted DNA, and GCF samples were measured using ELISA. Results There was a highly significant difference in the overall GCF 8- OHdG levels among the three groups with the pairwise difference being highly significant between the premenopausal-postmenopausal groups and perimenopausal-postmenopausal groups. However, no overall significant differences in tissue 8- OHdG levels were found among the three groups. Pairwise, highly significant differences were found between the premenopausal-postmenopausal groups and perimenopausal-postmenopausal groups for tissue 8- OHdG levels. No significant correlations were found between various measure of periodontal disease and GCF/tissue 8- OHdG levels among all the groups. Conclusion Premenopausal-postmenopausal and perimenopausal-postmenopausal transition resulted in significant increase in tissue and GCF 8- OHdG levels. However, no association was found between stages of reproductive ageing and tissue levels of 8- OHdG. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
