Abstrakt: Objective: This clinical study investigated the association between cytokine gene polymorphism and Candida growth in denture stomatitis (DS) patients. Subjects and Methods: Saliva and blood samples of 160 complete denture wearers (80 healthy controls and 80 with DS) were collected for mycological and gene polymorphism testing, respectively. Salivary Candida growth and TNF‐α, TGF‐β, IL‐6, and IL‐10 genotypes were investigated. Data were analyzed using Student’s t test, Mann–Whitney U test, chi‐square analysis, and continuity (yates) correction tests (p < .05). Results: Candida albicans colony counts in saliva were significantly higher in the DS group and in the TNF‐α GG genotype (p < .05). TGF‐β TC GG and TGF‐β CC GG haplotypes were significantly higher in DS and control groups, respectively (p < .05). C. albicans colony counts were significantly higher in control group in the TGF‐β TC GG haplotype (p < .05). Candida glabrata colony counts were significantly higher in the DS group than the control group in IL‐6 GG genotype (p < .05). The difference between DS types in IL‐6 genotypes was significant with lower expression level in DS type 3 than DS type 1 and also type 2 (p ≤ .01). Conclusion: The significant differences in some genotypes of the TNF‐α, TGF‐β, and IL‐6 in DS patients are promising in understanding the host defense in DS. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
